Good Morning I may have to get that book Terry - I will only have big things left, Student Loans, Mtg and small home equity loan that is not going anywhere...and my car. It does feel good to pay off cards and not spend if you don't have. Did I tell you guys work is paying me for the 5 days I missed, and planned on missing so I figured my budget this month without that, it is a full paycheck, that will make up the difference on my tax return and pay off that small credit card. How nice is that? Anyway - i'm procrastinating, it is -8 right now and not going to get above 10 the next week, this is what i hate have a great day Judy - stay warm, looks cold there too

Hi guys appt went well, I just saw the resident, but my dr was in the hall, when i weighed in i caught him see me and do a double take. Then when i was leaving he stopped me in the hall and told me to keep up the great work and was so different. I think I'm a star pupil. I didn't need a fill, i'm hardly eating as it is, but i'm going to kick it up 2/1 when i can get back to the gym and then evaluate the situation in april. I have an appt with him and the nutritionist in April. I would be happy to lose 10lbs by then. (ok who am i kidding - make it 22!) I got on the scale and it was 200.3, which is ok, I was 197 still this am so 3lbs of water and clothes is ok with me, I"ll take it-would have been thrilled if was less than that but overall it has been a great couple of days. Off to make margaritas, girls night is back on every tuesday

Good Morning gals Denise, it is not that expensive, flights are cheap and the weekend is not that much - you saw the price posted and the deposit was not that much. And it is a girs weekend, so you don't have to spend. Anyway, We would love for you to join us. Well - i'm up, had step mom's pizza shop holiday party last night, now i've only lost 8lbs but the bloat must be gone, my step brother for the first time in 20 years, gave me a hug when i got there - has never hugged me ever! and then asked me what happend to me and where the rest of me went! A good friend's wife, who i have not seen in almost a year came up to me and said"I don't want to sound rude, but did you lose a ton of weight? You look great". What a feeling! I am still holding Onderland and getting compliments, I needed that because I didn't feel it. Stupid gall bladder. LOL I have not gained more than 5lbs and my jeans were tight and my stomach measurements went up 2-3". I have yet to take them again. After I get cleared from Dr today, I'm starting water aerobics next Tuesday. I'm claiming my life back! I wish we had another option for cable, time warner is the only one here and they are so expensive. - and they can get away with it because they are it! I'm off today - make it a good one

Hi guys quick work check in. What a day! That is all i can say, changing Temp agencies because of the payroll mess i've been having and it is a nightmare. On a happy note, I was told by my company this morning they appreciate me so much they are paying me for the week that I had to take off for being in the hospital. OMG. I'm paying for the trip with it... Totally unexpected and will be a total of 5 days so it is a full paycheck! I'm so happy anyway - bbl Hope everyone has a great day HI PAMELA

LOL Laura is right leaving here on June 25 and will return July 5 I'm building my deck earlier too i think, going to pay for my vacations, kitchen, and a credit card and i want the deck done in May so i can enjoy it. got my w-2 from the pizza shop, man i got screwed, lost 900 on my tax return because i was not taxed as a part time employee so they didn't take any taxes out. stupid pizza shop keeps sucking me down. that is a credit card! for crying out loud... or extra's for the deck good thing i'll have it because i will be working my butt off after i get back from vacation. blah blah blah, just venting outloud - so ticked i lost that much money so quick sorry, i know i don't make sense...

Morning gals Pamela - I'm still trying to get out your way, looks like might be between xmas and new year so we can do the rose bowl parade - my aunt is a few blocks off the route and really wants us there. SO... I may come visit and let them do their crazy stuff with my aunt... 2 weeks of them might be a bit much. I will know within the next week, but i'm 100% sure that when i get back from our trip on Monday, I'm unpacking, and then packing real quick and we are leaving for Wildwood NJ the next morning with the family and going to stay until 7/5 I'm going to be starting a new job so I figured instead of having to take 2 vacations just take 1 long week. I've found if it is alredy booked and told upfront people are ok with it. shoot, i worked 2 days and then went to TX... LOL I think I've slowed down, still holding 197 today, which i'm thrilled about, but didn't go down, i know i didn't drink enough yesterday it was too cold to keep running to the potty. Hope you all have a good day, unfortunately i'm heading out to work in a few - such a long drive for a short day but that is ok

Tracy - so proud of you so...you guys are going to crack up... remember when we got to Gurene what it took to get me to try guacamole? well I'm addicted, I found a mix in the store and have been getting the 100cal pack size and having it with a few multi grain chips, infact that is what put me in the hospital... How funny is that -
