Mornin' everyone!
Well it's taken a large coffee, but I *think* I'm finally awake, but if you all of the sudden get
ldskaghjl;jfdg, that would by my head falling on to the keyboard. http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/tired.gif
Ap- gonna miss you! how long are you going to be gone? what will we ever do without you?
Good lukc on your test, Mandy! Don't be too stressed, I bet you;ve got it all!
I'm so glad your son is doing well DP! Aja (dd) is doing better...she's just so exhausted afterschool I barely know what to do with her!
Ugh, SouthernMom, I've got a "her" too. She's not even an offcial "her", but an ex of dd daddy's (and I suspect at least a casual current). And he invited her to dd b-day I put together without even telling me. It's a good thing it was supposed to be a happy day, or I might have gone loony right then and there. Good luck keeping your sanity! Its so annoying when your trying to be cool and keep nice and friendly with the ex's and then http://www.healthboards.com/ubb/bang.gif
Hey Sue! Good luck with the CLA. I started it last Friday, but I'm waiting to weigh until saturday. I guess we'll all see how it works together!
Hi Houdini! I'm having such a hard time getting exercizing in too...ugh, last night I forced myself to do the silly 8 minute abs and arms at 11PM before I went to bed, but I was draggin so much, I don't even know if that little bit helped. I wish I could do quick little spurts through the day (anybody do this?), but then I just feel stinky for the rest of the day. Nice job on the 1/2 lb...its all to brag about, don't yuh think?
Shel, have an awesome time! (and btw...i think you should go for the bikini too... )
Froggie, your my hero! Seriously that is GREAT time for a 5K. I don't even know if I could finish a 5k right now! I alsways have delusions about running, but the only time I can do it is 4:30AM, and when that alarm goes off, all illusions stop! That's so awesome though! And yup, full-day kindergarten...poor tired kid. We have a date with her best friend from preschool on Friday though and she is extraordinarily excited...I think she'll just feel so much better to be with a friend she's comfy with.
Hi Autumn, DG, Jojo, Roni, and Amber. I hope you all had sweet dreams!

Andrea,

What day are you leaving? Just wondering if you'll still be here when I get back or not.

Someone say hi to WHIRL for me!!!!!! I really want to hear all about her trip. Tell her to make a NEW thread telling us about her trip so that I can look for it more easily when I return!!!

Happy Phantom!!! Thanks!! I sometimes to many quick little spurts of exercise during the day, but I try to do it on cool days when I don't get to sweaty, and I do it during my work breaks

LOL Houdini, I did post alot last night! Most of the family was still working so I got a chance to get on the puter!! Most of the time my Son is on it or I'm at work!

Snoopy, your DH sounds like the way my DD hubby will be, she has to lead him in most everything!! He is sweet as can be but would spend every dime they have!

Hey AP, what's up this morning?

HI to all & I hope you guys have a great day!

Autumn,

I am leaving tomorrow morning. I will be in throughout the day checking on all of you!! And I might even post once in the morning, but I doubt it!!

TTYL!

btw, I love fresh macintosh apples!! YUM!!! I can tell you that my hubby loves my pie, and I used to make them several times a week, I would make one and we'd get FOUR servings out of it!! LOL, that explains my weight gain a few years ago. I haven't made one in a LONG time! lol.

Hello All

How is everyone doing on their journey to a thinner you? I hope good.

I am posting late I hope that is okay. I got a late start but I'm on my way now. I joined and started the mayo diet two days ago YEAH ME!!!!!! I have to say tho that I have had the internal battle with my self over Oreo cookies and Pepsi. NUMMY!!!!!!! I'm proud to say that the will power me won I did however gain 1.5 pounds since two days ago and I am going to have to have a little chat with mister willpower. If I'm going to follow his rules then he best be burning some fat off my *** LOL. Well I'll give him 3 more days and if I step on misses scale and she yells instead of sighs with relief I'm having that cookie.......a little blackmail for willpower hope it works.
Well off to do laundry.

With a smile,
Mystery

Shel, Im so jealous. I want to go! Are you and hubby going alone? Me and mine have not been anywhere alone since the birth of our first son.....8 yrs. ago! Oh well maybe someday! Hope you have fun and dont even stress over the bikini....If you feel more comfy in one then go for it. Use one of those little wraps on the lower half if you think you need it. I'm sure you'll look great!

Southernmom you crack me up with your ex stories. I know it may not be funny to you but to read it it's quiet comical.....don't let someone like that stress you out though, I'm sure if she shows up you can handle it!

AP, Dr. Steve is a good doctor? Sounds like he's a GREAT Dr. by reading about him...anyway have fun!

Houndini, thanks for all your support...I'm sure I will get it. I was in an awful mood when I was complaining- I shouldn't have even been on the computer!lol

Well I have to make Kraut Balls and Spinich Dip for a friend of mine....She's doing a wedding for her brother....hop I dont "Sample" to much!LOLOL

Snoopy,

Good for you for sticking with it, and 6 lbs is really really good! Good for you!! Just think, maybe you'll lose 12 more by the time I get back!!!!!!!!!!

Well unfortunately we have ALOT of running around to do tonight. I asked her what she'd like to do and she said play a board game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ummm, that is really going to be hard to fit into our schedule. But WE WILL . I am really really going to miss her. But I told hubby this morning that I think I feel more guilty leaving our two cats because at least DD knows what is going on! LOL. WE also have a NEW Kitten. We bought it for her to keep with her while we are gone. So the kitten will be traveling with her to each of the grandparents. I feel bad for it, she isn't going to know what is going on. Then in the morning we are going to take her to school, talk to the teacher and tell her what's going on. And say our good byes there! . Then head over to our friends house who lives about 40 minutes away. We are taking their car to Florida. The other 4 couples are flying. (I'm too scared). One of the couples has a direct flight and it's only a little over 2 hours long! I don't understand how it can be so quick!!!!!!!!!!! Oh well, we'll make the car ride fun!!

Oh dear, I definitely rambled. Yes I am at work, but I am leaving about 1:00 to go spend quality time with my cats, lol.

BBL!

Hi Mommy!! Glad you are feeling better

What are Kraut balls?????????? I LOVE FOOD!!! And I love trying new things.

There are 6 couples total going on the cruise, but hubby and I plan on spending some quality alone time together!! Unfortunately AF comes on Monday!!! I don't even want to get started on that one!! But I am not 'allowed' to wear tampons anymore because of recurring yeast infections, but I might have to give in. I can't imagine wearing pads all week!!

Now be good and only sample ONE!!

Ahem.........

what's everyone having for lunch?

I had a yogurt about an hour ago. I brought soup but it's the fattening kind (chunky potatoe w/ cheese and broccoli and chicken). So since I'm going home early I'll just wait and eat something healthy at home. Or the soup,lol.

Question

Can I get in this group? Been hovering a few days.
Ya'll seem to have fun, and I need the support.
I did Atkins from Oct. 01 - May 02 and lost 80 lbs.
Maintained for 6 months - then Thanksgiving, Christmas, birthday, etc. etc. knocked me back 30 lbs.
I started back induction on 9-2-03.
Back down about 10 so far. Got 50 to go, but my goal would be 20 more by this Thanksgiving.
