Karri Hate that you had the runs and tummy issues - but glad to hear you are feeling better and that today was a good food day - how did things go at school today - with whatever the issue was?? Karla I loved it when I use to use the tanning beds - it's addicting and yes here in the desert they are used alot - it's too hot to lay out in the sun and the tanning bed is faster - I did it pre-cruise - so that I would have a base and not get burned on the islands - I loved going on my lunch hr - it was right around the corner from my work - I wanted to buy one for the house.. but now a days I use tan in a bottle and sun block - but if I was going on a cruise to the island - I would most likely go get a good base so I didn't burn.. Beck is good - it will make you think and disguish between hunger and cravings - and giving yourself credit - which gf I don't think you do enough of... You have a lot on your plate right now - with the house and your Dad. For me the Dad issues would not make me want to eat but the house part would - I know that sounds crazy but some stress makes me not hungry and some stress sends me too food.. Just do like Candice and get the crap out of the house - don't allow yourself to buy it - and if you do - then throw it away - your house has to be your safe haven.. WTG Candice - no more junk in the house - you are learning :0) and when those comericals come on - change the channel - I have been drinking sf hot choc at night too - it helps alot.. Well back from the gym - dinner is cooking - the dogs fed - talked to Sis and her stepson is in the hospital - enlarged heart and pneumonia - he's only 36 (i think) weighs 350 and I guess his heart was beating too fast - they had to use the paddles on him.. He's a short order cook (good one) and I guess both he and gf love to eat - I know the last time I saw him at my bro's funeral - he had but on a lot of weight - he's such a sweet boy - would do anything to help you.. Well guess I will hit the couch and watch Olympics from last night - Ya Candice I read on aol that they were chanting blank the USA... Very poor taste indeed - we are sister countries and I do get that we each want our teams to win - but that was bad especially in the Olympic venue on top of it Has anyone heard from Steph ??

No I didn't watch it - I caught up on my Lost programs - but I read about it this morning - I guess the Canadian's weren't too happy they chanted bad words !!! Yes I can't wait for the girl figure skating... That's my fav.. USA ALL THE WAY ;0) CANADIAN 2NDS :0) Denise - I agree if there was something wrong they would have gotten you in right away... I drank my acai berry power drink - so I am so so right now - got gym tonite - legs so I need the energy. WTG on your treadmil even though you are pooped.. Well just a quick ck in... Cbl

USA ALL THE WAY ;0)... Denise - Doc to day - keep us posted Phyl - How are you feeling Karri - Another day hope the school drama works its self out Well gotta jam cbl Hugs

Good Afternoon Gang Took a little nap !!! Denise - omg your food sounds good - How is your Mom?? You go to the doctor tomorrow ?? Karla - How you doing girl - you have been quite - assume you aren't in the mood to chat Karri - Hugs on the issues at school - Ya I know about needing insurance.. It's very important.. WTG on your 5 lbs !!!! Phyl - Self medicate ;0) - Fish taco's sound wonderful Candice - Oh the snow !!! Well dryer just stopped need to go hang up clothes cbl

Good Morning (Late) Been up since 5:45 - read the paper - got on the computer - cropped and printed various pictures - very time consuming - the kids got me this jewelry box for xmas that is a picture frame - so that's done and hung up - did some wash and that's about it. Getting ready to eat some green bean and read and watch t.v. No Snow here - cloudy 69 degrees - I am still and pjs and not getting dressed - need to get nails done - took them off Thrusday - feels good without them but can't do some stuff and other stuff (typing) easier - but don't expect my spelling to change Phyl glad you are feeling better - have fun..

Good Morning Gang Someone stole my ipod !!! I can't find it - I couldn't go to the gym - I am cleaning instead... I am freaking pissed - either Brooke go a hold of it or DIL bro or SIL took it... It was in the kitchen in a crystal bowl...

Good Morning Girls !!!! No Candice I am not an alcoholic yet :0) - OMG when I got home last night it was crazy - Melissa's bro is LOUD and doesn't shut the F up - he is freaking motor mouth and kept talking about stupid shit like real men don't were sparkles (ice skating) I said you are teaching your kid the wrong crap yes they do ... I can't tolerate stupid pple.. Yes I had bday the end of January (go go for like 4 days) sister 2/6 - Fl trip last weekend and family here now.. Yes I do need some recharging time - will only have this weekend cuz I think 2/26 I will drive up north as Brooke's bday is 3/1 and I didn't do crap for her last yr cuz I was so busy getting ready for cruise.. Karla - Yes please make sure your Dad get's all the med's he needs so as to not to feel any pain- I know how tough this is - Hugs !!!! Phyl - Tell Earl to lay off - in Dr Janet's opinion you have been doing to much and that's why you can't get over this bug.. ok gang I gotta get back to work Hugs to all

Good Morning Gang…. Phyl – Hugs – maybe it’s time for Kurtis to learn that he can’t have it his way – Tough love is hard but it’s needed sometimes… Hugs on your Mom – hope that it’s nothing too bad – My Sis should get out today – I will call later it’s to early now.. WTG on 196 !!!!! You need to slow down a bit and get well - Hugs Candice – I am glad you are reading Beck – like Karri say’s it’s in your face and it counters all the excuses you make as to why you can’t do stuff. Karla – Hugs on the house falling thru – that’s means it wasn’t meant to be – but something will come along… Denise - Keep us posted ok - What are you giving up for lent :0) Ok this has to be drive by – I gotta get to work – Joseph & family here yesterday – tonite going to have Melissa’s Mom Stepdad – bro his wife – and their 2 kids – PLEASE PLEASE Pray for me - I can’t wait for some recharging time…

WTG CANDICE - THROW THE CRAP OUT - BETTER IN THEE (trash) THAN IN ME.. I don't really allow to many treats at home - do eat them when I am away - but not at home - you have to have a safe haven - home is that place for me - I don't have food that i crave - and that's all it is is craving – craving food or being hungry isn’t an emergency – as you will find out from Beck – sit down make a menu – write out your food plan then stick to it.. Candice you aren't suppose to be able to eat 1.5 cups of hard protein at a meal 4 To 5 oz – weighted on a scale is what you are suppose to eat per meal of hard protein.. That’s a usually a piece of meat the size of a deck of cards then maybe ¼ to ½ cup of veggies – that should be a meal – 1 cup oatmeal should fill you up (thick not You just want to eat more food - I am down to about 1 cup per meal - which is good - no room for my rice (75%) of the time.. Make your homes a junk free zone – and get rid of the stuff that can make healthy foods fattening if you can’t say no to it – that’s peanut butter for me – do you know how much I have thrown away.. Also – don’t tell your self you can’t throw it away – you can – you say you don’t want to waste it – well would you rather gain 5 lbs – throw the stuff away – your friends don’t need it either – no one needs junk food.. You gotta look at food as the devil - - I hate it – but in throwing the crap away you do gain some control imho – I love throwing stuff away – it make me feel powerfull and maybe next time I won’t be so tempted to buy it cuz I will just have to throw it away..I am the winner not the food when I throw it away You don’t need junk food to live – in fact it has no nutritional value what so ever – so you don’t need it in the house and you don’t need to go looking for it … This isn’t a diet – and I think you still think it is – you can NEVER EVER EAT JUNK FOOD LIKE YOU USE TO… Never – so just say good bye to the damn stuff – If you want junk – pick one Saturday or Sunday – go buy a small ice cone – a small can bar – 2 small cookies from the bakery and have your treat – and be done with it – YOU CAN NEVER EVER AGAIN SIT AND EAT A BATCH OF FUDGE – A BAG OF COOKES – ½ CAKE – DRINK BLIZZARDS EVERYDAY – YOU ARE A FREAKING ADDICT – JUST GET THAT THRU YOUR HEAD – QUIT TRYING TO CONTROL IT – CUZ YOU CAN’T – JUST LET IT GO… Phyl glad you are feeling better – Hugs on Curtis – When will he be 18 - Hugs I can just imagine how hard this is for you… Hugs & Prayrers Karla – WTC on getting those 4 lbs off – like you said you know what you did – you just have to be mindful – this is a learning experience – Hell I am still learning myself..

Good Morning Gang Karla - let it go for your sake - not theirs - and it's ok not to like your mom - nothing wrong with that.. You need to take care of you and not her... That's all I was saying - just let go of the anger - its hurts you and not her - You don't have to deal with her if you don't want to and if I were you I wouldn't Karri - Good for you - today is a new day.. You can do this.. Well sorry for the fly by but gotta hit the showers

Candice I am watching last night's Olympic's Yea Canada - I am rooting for both since I am an Honorary Canadian !!! Glad you got the gold in the Moguls !!! - I love the Chinese story !!! They skated very well last night - Karla - Hugs on the parent's issue - The cheating isn't your issue - it's theirs - so let it go too.. If your Dad looked the other way - why arent' you.. Hugs cuz no matter what he's still your daddy and it's hard.. Why would you never go outside cuz of the fence - omw girl - throw up some lattic and plants - a wood fence is going to cost alot - well maybe you will have enough left over... You need to look some more - what happen to those other houses.. You know what - None of us had the Father Know's Best family - I don't think there is such a thing - the only thing we can do is move forward - quit looking back Well got my gym in - food shopping done - all put up - wash done - Joseph & Family will be here tomorrow My sis is in the hospital - my stupid BIL said I could be an only child - he was kidding but I didn't appreciate that kind of kidding - she's doing ok - should come home tomorrow she hopes..

Went to bed at 8 last night - got up at 6:30 have gym at 10 Karla - Hugs & Prayers on your Dad - I know how you are feeling right now - Hugs Phyl - Hope you made it home safely - Heck I was burning up when I landed - had tights long sleeves jacket - car said 85 degrees.. Candice - didn't really get to watch the olympic's feel a sleep - I know we have 5 metals so far - I hope a Canadian wins at least 1 in their olympic's someone told me they never have won one on their own land Karri How are you doing Denise - more snow ?? Well I need to go get luggage out of car and unpack - clean up the kitchen from dinner last night and after gym go shopping - Joseph and family will be here tomorrow for a few days - no rest for the wicked... Pic's from FL and snow in DFW

I'm Home !!! Karla - Hugs on your Dad - Congrats on the house !!! Marcy - WTG - got your message - You got to tell us more - I have been gone just got back OMG what a time I had an experience of a life time getting to my mentor thread reunion - I was up at 3 a.m. on Thrusday (after going to bed after midnite) - Met Eva at DFW - had lunch walked around then our 8 p.m. flight wasn't showing up on the boards - do I called to see if the 8 p.m. flight was cancelled it was - Talked to the ticket guy on the phone - we could get a flight to Ft Meyers - so we ran to the ticket window the ticket girl was great - they only had 1 seat available - we said we wouldn't fly without each other - she put us both on stand by and got us on the plane - Thanks Robin (that was her name;0) Got on plane at 6 - plane didn't take off till 11 p.m (de-icing) got to Ft Meyers at 1 a.m. - rented a car - got to hotel at 2 - hell didn't get to sleep until after 4 a.m. up at 8:40 and on the road by 9:30 - Any Yes Phyl I ck'd my bag - no clothes or make up.. Got to the resort about 12:45 pm on Friday - was originally suppose to be there 4:05 on Thrusday.. Candice - I am about to go and watch the Olympic's right now - I heard from the Canadain gentleman who sat next to me on the plane from Dallas to Palm Springs that we have one a gold.. Phyl - Hugs... Karri - Hugs Gang I am pooped - I will post later and incl pics but I gotta veg

good morning gang Well wish me luck and say a prayer for me today that I don't get stuck in Dallas TX will be there for about 7 hrs... Hopeing we can get a plane out at 8 tonite.. This is going to be an experience !!! Love to you all - I think someone will have a computer so I will update you when I can... xoxoxo Janet

Well - I am going to Fl tomorrow - Eva who lives in AZ got us a flight out of Dallas at 9 tomorrow nite - So I gotta go and pack Say a prayer for me tomorrow.. I got a 9 hr layover in DFW but I am going to FL

Denise - I rooted for the Saints - Just because of you !!! I'm a Cowboy fan - so it didn't matter to me and I really don't watch football - just the superbowl I was rooting for the Saint and was worried the 1st half - Hated the halftime show - it sucked big time.. Yep - have the doc take your fill out - give it a week or 2 then start over.. I gotta tell you - the problem is mostly in our heads yes the band helps - but it doesn't stop you from wanting food. And I find I am the most frustrated when I can't eat what I want to eat or event the amount that I want to eat - which is small - this last fill has me at a super sweet spot - and I find it very frustrating that I can't eat more food cuz I am still mentally hungry - not physically but mentally... Karla - GF to gain 6 lbs we know you weren't being honest - but that's ok - we all go thru it.. You are in a very stressfull place right now with the house and all - and now your Dad has taken a turn for the worse.. Take one day at a time -and get the food out of the house.. Do your very best to make good food choices and go from there.. Well gang looks like I'm NOT going to Florida tomorrow - my flight out of Dallas has been cancelled - Snow.... I am so bummed out - but gotta think that there is a reason - either the plane was going to crash or I need to be around for Andrew this weekend... I haven't told you all but his cousin was shot and killed last Friday in a drive by - Andrew doesn't associate w/his mom's family much and isn't in any kind of gang - but his cousin was 19 and I knew him as a baby and I know his Mom - I am so very very sad that she lost her child and I don't care if he was in a gang or not - the lost of life is what matter - how does a women survive losing a child..
