LOL I have to type because my message was too short because in the quotes...:closedeyes:

Michelle (((((hugs))))) you can stop in and vent at any point! That is what we are here for I'm sorry you are in a funk, I think we have all been there at one time or another. I know that if I wasn't walking already I sure wouldn't be out there walking now. Off to shower ... gotta get ready for happy hr

Suzanne sorry to hear bout your friends Mother, that was very nice of you to bring deli stuff over. I have found people don't really do that much anymore. I brought my neighbor baked ziti and meatballs and they were so appreciative because with all the details and people over, they didn't have time to even think of food. I just had a beautiful salad, I'm shooting for 1200 cals again. go me

I just had 1 egg, with ham, sausage, onion and cheese. 370 cals and 36g protein. YUMMY

Suzanne sorry you did't sleep well. I LOVE Mercy, my I made my daughter watch it with me one night and she is hooked too! I only saw part of the next show previews...2 weeks... but OMG... gonna be a good one!

Hey I just logged my walk.. I have burned 3168 cals from Monday to today and that is not with weights or daily life stuff:eek: no wonder why i'm not losing with 900 cals a day

Hey Ok back from my walk. Do you walk Tracy? or have a place you can walk? I so enjoy it because I don't have to drive to the gym, can just go. I get up, have coffee, make kids breakfast get them off to school and walk, come home and have a glass of water to cool me off *yes I am sweating and it is only 40 out* and now I'm going to make my high protein egg, with ham and low fat cheese. I try to hit the gym 2-3 times a week for weights. I'm going to have to go every day when the sidewalks are unwalkable. I have learned not to give up this time and I feel great. My old neighbor was just outside and told me how great i looked and how i walked blah blah blah. I told him no - that was a while ago, i go to....... and he almost fell over! ok starving this morning, going to make breakfast

Kat I have not watched Gray's but they are all recorded. I started watching last night but knew I wasn't going to stay awake so I turned it off, which was hard, it looked awesome! I have been watching Mercy, have any of you seen it, I LOVE IT. ok off to make breakfast... be back

Night all I feel like a stuffed turkey.... actually ate 1200 cals today, it was hard but I did it. Lets see what happens increasing my calss nice chattin with you earlier Tracy

:seeya: i'm an 8 1/2

Laura I'll pray for MIL, keep us posted.. ok Tracy - hey that was so funny! we were up laying in my bed watching a movie and I checked my email and was like... oh sh*&! LOL What happens Saturday night will determine some fate! Mine. . . Its great, the last few months kev kept telling me that all I wanted was sex... DUH... no but seriously, he was the last... I want whatever happens next in my life to be more... although.... go from 5 times a week to nothing... YIKES sorry TMI.... but can you even imagin? LOL

LOL that is ok, my spelling is horrible, but mostly because my puter is old and keys starting to stick, so something don't even look like words when i type

Tracy - go you with the 8/10, you are going to get there again, I know you will. and You can kick my butt all the way there, I need it:eek:

Hey all Tracy - catch me... I dare you! I'm back from my walk, took an extra 10 minutes today because I had new sneakers on today, actually ealized I wore my other pr out. Literally. My back and feet were killing me the last 3 days. Yes, took me 3 days to realize my poor sketchers have over 3000 miles on them. DUH! Tracy - you were in an 8??? I don't think I'll ever get there. Kat - I don't miss office politics, I give you credit. Give me workboots and a hardhat, and a bunch of guys... now that is my kind of job Laura - you go with the bargain! Suzanne - hey sister, how you feeling? I weigh in every day, I have water issues and if I gain I know I need to at least work hard to get rid of that and drink extra. blah blah blah. BUT... it is mostly because I would eat and say screw it i can make up for it tomorrow, Not a good thing for me. I'm just not as mental and hard on myself if I don't lose. I've lost 30lbs and min 18" in 2 1/2 months, and that was no measurements for the first 3 weeks... so I'll take it, as long as something is happening

I am back to being super motivator, I've lost 30lbs and 15 inches in 2 1/2 months. I'm not giving up now! I'm ready to motivate you all

sorry gals i was all over the board, i had organized thoughts when I started typing. off to shower!

Hi - Tracy and I were banded at the same time, we met in another thread, but we were neck and neck for a while and then she blew my ass (sorry) out of the Water. She is amazingly strong *you are sister and you know it! Anyway, I am taking this last year as a major learning experience. I no longer think twice about the healthy way to make something, or avoiding bad food. I maintained for over a year, which to me says a lot, but I'm ready to finish this adventure. I have a schedule, when I don't exercise I feel lazy, no matter what crazy project I'm doing. I've changed myself. I have been harassing my dd to slow down and not inhale her food, she lost 10lbs in a month just doing that and she feels better. She was 164lbs but is 5'8" so that was not horrible, but is now 155. We are 20lbs apart and sharing some clothes. I can't wait to squeeze into her size 8's... :thumbup::lol:that is funny stuff... size 8 anyway i guess I'm saying this last leg of the adventure is learning the reality of the situation, life changes not diet. Diet is a horrible word and I don't ever want to be on one again. LETS DO IT GUYS... LETS KICK ASS SO WE CAN START THE NEW YEAR WITH THE NEW US! WE WILL SHOW THEM ALL

Welcome Gloria shoot, I fell asleep for the end... I forgot I'm going to rewind dvr and watch it. I agree, it is all will power, I'm at my last 10lbs for my initial goal, but would love to ultimately be another 25 when I'm done. This is a great group of gals, hope we can help!

When are you going to make that appointment for your fill? I need one myself! Me.. Me... Me... I've noticed the last month I have shoulder bones and i've never had them, a friend told me I look drawn. I don't think so! :w00t: Feel better and Take care of you! Twetty - I had a bunch of clearances I had to do, and they went quick, I was not in a mentally stable place for surgery so I lost my 10% quickly (mostly water and bloat. lol) required by insurance and my Dr, That was in October, and then my boyfriend got in a horrible Motorcycle accident and I was not in a place to take care of me, infact I fell apart, so waited until April for surgery. So it should go as quickly as you want it to... LOL Find out if you need any medical clearances and start scheduling the appointments now to make sure they don't hold you up! Well, I'm up and going, going to take care of some more business this morning and then head over to the gym for a quick workout. Nothing much going on, other than i need to either get more support (just took a $250 a month cut and it is killing me) or get a job now! I so want to wait until Feb so i can get more certs but I need to do something. I guess I'll get a better idea next week of what is going to happen when I go to court. I'm off...see ya all when I get back

Kat Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I love that kind of food have a good day

Tracy good luck with your appt today, I had one yesterday for the same thing. I like quiet mornings too, just do what I have to do... ya' know? I get up 45 mins before anyone so I can have a cup of coffee and wake up

hello all not much happening, just ate a salad from subway, have not had hot sauce in months, been craving it... OMG, my systems is like what are you putting in my body?????? going to relax for a few and get up and clean. xoxo all

Hey sister (((hugs))) I feel your pain, i lost my get up and go a year ago, maybe it is the new found freedom of trying to find someone to share my life with, and I felt so fat I didn't think anyone could look at me differently than I see myself. I'm not sure. I had a bad week, and I hope that being golden will help me with my last 10lbs, but either way, I have lost another 3" in the past month so I feel good about that, and I'm learning to take a compliment. So I guess I have some motivation. As for veggies, you are missing out girlfriend! I never eat canned or frozen, ok peas maybe but that is it. give me a veggie you like, i'll give you a quick easy way to cook it, love green ones the best! Zuccini, fresh spinach are my favorites, Broccoli I sometimes have a hard time choking down, but love it. Well, I walked 6 miles this morning, feeling good! I forgot i have fasting blood work this morning and guess what, I had 2 cups of coffee:cursing: my reminder just went off, so I'm trying to call and see if i need to cancel.

But it is well worth the journey isn't it???? Yes you will Tracy! You are a strong person and inspire me... lets go girl. I love halloween... we got Dylan's costume too, he is going to be a fireman. simple and I can layer the heck out of him, you never know if it is going to be warm or cold and being on a Sat, will be out at all different times. Suzanne - take care of yourself - (((hugs))) I hear you, I have not felt like doing much myself. Ok well off for my walk and back to healthy eating today, been way out of control the last week. I'll be back to check in later

hey all I'm exhausted, worked all day and then cleaned out the garage and got pool stuff away for the winter. Its going to to rain tonight and all day tomorrow so i had to get some stuff done. just wanted to check in... back to normal this week... i hope
