twitter up date - got toes painted and one hand - gotta let it dry to do the other ;0) - Magenta - really a dark/med pink - I'm in a pink mood - and I don't even like pink :0) Karla they had a hover for $99 it didn't have a rotating brush I got the little one for the accident - Andrew wants me to get a rug doc so he can clean - but I am afaird he will get the carpet too wet - I write insurance for a carpet cleaning co and the whole house is only 135 - and I love the way they rake it up looks brand new for about a second :0) Earl is the one who suggested it along with me - like minds :0)

It was ok - had the sea bass should have had the lobster - it wasn't as good as I had at Flemmings.. But I ate my dessert choc cake w/1/4 vanilla ice cream I had some cheese & salami at target 75 cal max - am home spot cleaning carpet - sis due in next weekend was going to buy a shampooer - Karla what kind do you have - I have a little green machine - but it just spot cleans - does a pretty good job but Andrew wants to do the house. Carb at nite - totally get you there gf - I can't sleep til I have had some - last night fell asleep on the couch went to bed and tossed and turned - this is when I want to eat - it's my sleeping pill - but was full from dinner - had 1/4 bite of cheese cake and pb'd - then was able to drink a little oj and finallly went to sleep.. Beautiful day here - someone said it's 77 - but the weather report for next week - 60's...

Good Morning... How was dinner Candice Karla what are you up to today Steph how are you Karri - did you get home yet Kari - I guess you are hiding... Here's pic of Flowers Candice sent

Yes I use condiment spoon and small forks - I eat off dessert/sandwich plates and I have 1 cup bowls - been doing it for 2.5 yrs now.. It's what we are suppose to do.. Welcome to the life of a bander

Update on Phyl before she had to turn off phone for roaming charges while at sea.. Ship leaves port at 5:30 - Some pple were late getting on ship - it was suppose to go at 5... She's switching to tequilla and crystal lite - going to get a bottle in MX and smuggle back on board in her water bottle :0)

Just ck'd out the website - they have fresh maine lobster - claws and all - that's what I am having - kids are going to have to eat lite - I know they are a steak house - but I just had steak for bday dinner on thrusday - so I'm having lobster tonite.. I thought they would show prices on website - nope so you know it's expensive !!! That's why I have never eaten there - but I did know everything is ala carte - I hate restaurants like that - when my parents were alive on my Bday or when I visited in the summer - we always went to nice places and but since they have been gone (18 yrs this yr) i have only gone out expensive when I have had a gift certificate..

got email from Phyl at 3:15 - on ship had lunch and $10 glass of wine - said she's switching to drink of the day - its' cheaper lol.. Fish & soup for lunch... getting ready to muster ...

Karri See your doc 1ST THING MONDAY !!!!! Candice You look BEAUTIFUL !!! You have such beautiful skin... Where are you going for dinner ?? We have reservation for 7:15 at Ruth Chris - don't know if you have them there or not - Andrew's Mom gave a $200 gift certificate - Andrew just called and said Janelle is going w/us - I hope I don't end up having to spend extra - I have never been but I know it's expensive.. I was taking a nap till he called right now... Ate my chilli releno from last night and fell asleep..

Candice I think Phyl is on ship by now - she posted on fb - told her to think of me when she has a drink of the day - I love those always have them - I love cruising.. OMG I went an pickup up my nasal b12 (you squirt it in your nose once a week) $225 - it suppose to last for 2 months - it's expensive.. I will see if it helps with anything !!! Got bills paid :biggrin: - need to work on db stuff and tax stuff but don't feel like it - think I am going to go make some popcorn and watch some t.v. :0) Karla - you are going to wear that damn carpet out you shampoo once a week ;0)

Good Morning Gang Quick post before I head for the gym... dinner was good - Andrew me & Deb went out - Mexican ate and enchillada - came home then watched a little t.v. and bed. Webcam - now Candice I have seen you in the mornings :0) just like you all have seen me w/no make up - who cares we are girls - we arent perfect 24/7 - right now I am bare faced - teeth brushed hard held back with a head band in my workout close ready to go to the gym - finishing my coffee - I got to sleep till 7 this morning and you all know that's rare !!! Well need to get moving - Phyl I know you are on your way to the port for your cruise Have a wonderful time !!!!!

Thanks for the bday wishes Karla.. Phyl - Kaitlin called and we got it working we got to skpye's and do video call - it was great to talk to the whole family.. Kaitlin told me I'm the white Oprah - she they didn't know what to get me :0).. Phyl thanks again for the gift & beautiful card (I'm really into cards and truly am happy with thoughtful card alone - That's what I tell the kids all the time just get me a nice card. I just got off the phone w/Candice - to thank her for the flower she sent.. She was painting all day - and her and Peter were having cocktails - it was 9 when I called her but knew she would still be up.. Andrew got me a new camera - Olympus 12 mg pics 4 zoom - I took pic of flowers - haven't read instruction yet ;0) Will post them tomorrow Candice -Thank you again that was so sweet - you had me wondering who was sending flowers - had the family wondering too ;0).. Sitting here waiting for Debbie to come - going to dinner - Mexican I think ;0) Karla -glad you are getting a big big ck back - that's great - that would be so coool to be on the ship - but really want you to come to WA Cbl THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL THE LOVE - I TRULY HAVE GREAT FRIENDS !!! XOXO JANET

Thanks baby girl - You have been filled by now - hope all went well Phyl sorry I missed you - my phone was dead it was in the car charging - I was at Marshalls when you called.. Thank you so much for the gift and the BEAUTIFUL CARD !!!

Thanks Phyl Joseph gave me a webcam for my bday - so I can talk to them and the girls - omg I can't figure it out - I got it hooked up - who has windows messanger ?? I don't know how to use it and you most likely don't want to see me right not - I am still in pj - but we can talk live - it's cool My gf candy has messenger - we connected she could hear me but didn't see me.. Well it's 10 and I have done nothing but made my bed and sort thru mail - stack - bills - tax stuff - DB stuff and Ranches stuff and here I sit trying to figure out this web cam and nothing getting done - I have to go to post office I need to get off my butt..

Good Morning Gang.... Sorry I was mia yesterday - but since I was warned about internet and it was my friday - I was super busy yesterday and then went out to dinner with GF and didn't get home til 9:30 ish - was in bed by 10.. Steph hugs on Michael and his Dad - I think it's natural for a kid to want to know who is Dad is - just look at all the adopted kids who go looking for their biological parents - I think this fear is normal - He will show his true colors - so don't sweat it - Michael is still going to love you - the problem is most 15 yrs olds hate their parents - I know I did - I said hated my mom at that age - but I really didn't. My DS dad isn't about anything - I never stopped him for seeing him and like your xdh, he never really did try to see him - they did see each other some - but my ds remembers waiting for Dad to pick him up and he never showed up... So he may be acting like the night in shinning armor right now - but like I said true colors will come to show.. Karri - Have a safe trip over the mtn.. Phyl - lol Earl needing a comb - Go to Kmart for the curling iron or even walmart.. Candice - WTG on your kickstart progam it should help get you back on track - give you some motivation.. Karla - How are you doing - I know you are at school already and as normal - I didn't get to sleep in - animals had me up at 5:30 ;0) Well need to get to the gym - ttyl

Good Morning Gang !!! 142.5 this morning - 2 lbs in 1 week - so yes this fill is helping !! Last night I did get my 1/4 c rice in but I was stuffed - but I hadn't had any (or hardly any) carb this last week and my brain wanted them.. I feel asleep on the couch during AI - then went to bed - today is my friday :0) Karla hugs on the parent/teacher thing - When do you think you can go get a fill?? Karri - Safe trip over the mountain - and I understand your fears - a fill will help - that's the reason for the band - I think we have done alot on our own - but we have to remember why we got the band as we need the it's help.. We are addicts and as long as we can eat we will - we need the restriction that it gives us - the hard part is getting it just right.. Phyl - 2 more days till your cruise !!!! Have you gotten another suit case :0) - For me the most stressful thing going anywhere is what to take and trying not to over pack.. Hell I'm with Karla - hair stuff/make up take up alot of space and I am a makeup whore - I have 10 diff eye shadows - mascara's etc - Flying is a bitch for me w/the 2 oz limit.. Well wanted to ck in early cuz today is my friday and I have tons to do today at work - cbl

Well back from the gym - got bear & angel fed - my food is cooking .. Went to the funeral today - had a brownie w/a cup of coffee but here's the thing - I ate it with a fork - and it took me about 20 mintues to eat it !!! OMG it was deliouse - I think it's the 1st brownie I have had in 2.5 yrs :0) BF was yogurt/garnola 180 cal - lunch 2 oz of meat loaf 100 cal - and then the brownie (400???) - so so far I have had 680 - dinner will be fish tonite 150 c - spinach 30 - and if any room and with this fill I doubt it 1/4 c rice - I am better tight - I haven't be having any rice for the last week - Hell fill was thrusday so I was on Soup thrus/friday/sat - Meat & Veggies the rest of the week - did have popcorn last night - tomorrow is offical weigh in day.. Phyl I used my gps to get to the terminal - you will have no problem - once you turn in to the terminal you will see your ship - and ya 1 week at sea 1 little suit case - hell I took my carry-on just for my shoes !!! Talked to Kaitlin tonite she called me - she misses me :0) pretty good for a 15 yrs GD - I am blessed.. Well, I am pooped - going to go watch tv

Slow today here on #7 - I have gotten an inside tip to watch my lbt while at work - plus I was busy since i left at noon and tomorrow is my friday.. Ya Steph in a small town like yours these are big things.. The dog doesn't seem too needy but Bear hisses at it like he's a wild animal a werid sound - told andrew if they don't get along that dog goes.. Well he is trying to take him for a walk doesn't looke like it's working they just came back - the dog doesn't know how to walk on a leash - it's only 3 months old - I agree this may be too much work for Andrew - we will see - this is one reason I am not getting attached..

Good Morning Gang Right now I am very resentful about the stupid dog - cuz I truly don't want it - so it's going to take some time for me to warm up to it - but it likes me ;0) - Neither Bear nor Angel like the dog - well that's normal for Angel she doesn't like Bear that much - but Bear doesn't like the dog - and Sheba - well forget about it - It's a gentel dog and not super hyper for a puppy (3 months old 1/31) Tequila - now you are talking !!! But after my last episode - I not in the mood to drink for another few months :0) We got a little rain last night - but I don't think too much - I have had my sprinklers turned off since last Monday :0) Well - I have a funeral this afternoon - a lady I have worked w/since 74 - DH died last week - so going to that this afternoon - I hate funerals.... Ok gotta get it in gear..

Phyl You are to freaking funny !!!! Love it... Enjoy - that's what life is about - you have done so well - Hell how much more do you want to lose?? Tomorrow only 1 glass of wine - then switch to crystal lite ;0) Phyl do you leave Friday or Saturday for the cruise.. Candice - WTG on the painting - that's great exercise.. Well I'm back from the gym I did 5 miles on the elliptical tonite - in just little over an hour - burned 500 cal I would say the elliptical uses more leg muscles than the treadmill I figured I need to mix it up some to get this weight off.. food has been EXCELLENT !!! BF - Protein Drink - 15 pt - 70 cal S - PT chips 10 pt - 140 cal L - 4 oz turkey meat loaf & 1/4 c cauliflower - 20 pt 200 cal S - Pt bar - 15 pt - 160 cal D - will be 4 oz meat loaf & butternut squah 20 pt 250 cal That so far is 820 cal - and 80 pt - and I have drank 4 16.9 bottles of Water and 5 miles on the elliptical... As of this morning I have lost 1.5 lbs - back to 143 !!! Well squash is done - gotta get it out of microwave - I hate the beeping... Oh Ya - we have a new member to the family - white/brown boxer - Yes I gave in - I was pissed and we had a big row - he feels bad for upsetting me - I feel bad when I say no to him - He's a good kid for the most part and is pretty responsible for an 18 yr old. We will see how it goes.. Like I said - I have a very very hard time saying no to Andrew - we have been going back and forth on this for 8 months - Well it's still sorta a trial basis - I am not doing anything for this dog - I am not going to get attached,. cbl

Steph - I don't know how I missed this yesterda - yep it's scary - and what I have always been scared of since day one - this is why I keep freaking over the 5lbs - I know most pple think I am silly - but the whole secert is not to let those 5 lbs turn into 10 - We all know the drill. When I put the sticky note on the peanuts my gf Kaye just shakes her head - well - If I were talking to a healthy person they would understand - or if she hadn't know me at 250 - she's big herself - so she just doesn't "get it" This is why everything you put in your mouth counts - cuz we aren't going to go and do 2 extra days at the gym most days - I really can't do over 1 hr - that's my limit and I do have to make myself go - just like tonite - I must go - I don't want to - but will give myself credit for going an I do feel stronger about me when I do go.. But I really have to push myself to go week nites (well other that weight training days) I got the pink book - not the workbook - I wanted the Green book but they didn't have it - it's her latest I think if I remember correctly it came out in 09.. WTG on the weights - Exercise is good - and we have to look at it this way and quit the negative connotations that we associate w/exercise -it does get easier and you do feel powerful after you have done it- Put a gold start on your fridge for you... Karla GF you have the muscle - it just needs some working on :0) to make it stronger - thats all - Hell - taxes - well - I haven't even started - and need to - but what the heck - it will get done.. WTG - I know how good it made you feel - how was the run with smaller boobs :confused:) Well Started this at 7:30 - but have had 2 interruptions - and it's 8:50 - and I gotta get busy - this is my short week.. CBL

I don't understand the red ?? What happend to the Janet post?? You can't get it in Canada book store - I'll bring it in July :0) Ate 2 oz of meat loaf 1/3 cup of cauliflower - I am full.. What I AM going to do tomorrow - is drink water - I only drank 1/2 bottle - now I have to wait - but I need more water. Beckism - How to know when you are really hungry HUNGER - you hadn't eat for many hours and really felt ravenous That empty sensation in your stomach You ate a big meal and yet you still want to continue to eat more - THIS IS DESIRE You had a very strong urge to eat which was accompanied by a feeling of tension and yearning sensation in your mouth throat or body this is CRAVING

Karla Hugs on your Dad & Mom situation - I know how tough it is watch your parents be sick... I will say an extra prayer for your Dad & Mom with my Prayers for Steph's FIL OK onto the crap you ate - were did you get it... You didn't bring it to school - if someone has a candy bowl on/in their desk - go put a sticky on that says "No Planned Snack" Eating beings with a trigger - sabotaging thoughts arise when you are confronted with a trigger Environmental trigger - seeing or smelling food Biological trigger - Hungry thirst or craving (intense urges to eat) Mental Triggers - these are unpleasant feelings such as anger sadness anxiety frustration or boredom. You eat to comfort or distract yourself. Emotional triggers can also be pleasant feelings You might think that if you eat or keep eating you can keep that good feeling going Or you might eat because you think your good feeling will go away if your restrict yourself You have a muscle that you need to strengthen - it's your resistance muscle (your give in muscle is the strongest right now ) Every time you resist eating something you shouldn you are strengthening you tendency to resist in the future - However each time you give in and eat something you shouldn't you are strengthening your tendency to give in.. So whenever you feel the urge to eat something you are not suppose to think about which muscle your really want to strengthen. You need to take every opportunity to strengthen your resistance muscles and to weaken you give in muscle No I don't need to eat the crap - I'm having (meal) in 2 hr leave the lunch room.. No I don't need to eat the crap I just had lunch a couple hrs ago - if I hadn't come in here to get a cup of coffee I wouldn't want to eat those cookies that are on the table - get your coffee and get out.. No I don't need to eat a sticky bun even though I am really hungry This hunger will go away soon if I concentrate on my work and besides its not that long till dinner beckisam above :0) So you ate crap - stop and eat a healthy dinner :0) Phyl - Earl watches tv like me - asleep ;0) Love the #'s those are pretty.. Well back from the gym - gotta go feed the dogs and andrew CBL

lol Steph - I ordered 2 of those - one black & one beige - I go the medium cuz the host said that's what she had on - well I should have gotten the small - I would like them lower cut in the front :0) I have the black one on today and it's seems a little tighter than the beige one - My gf has the beige one and if it fits her (she's bigger than me) she's going to buy them off me... Hell I forget you are QVC girl too :0) - but since I were shapers - I don't have regular panties - had to go buy some :0).. Karri - I love this in the beck book - you eat lunch and you are still hungry or you get hungry before you next snack or meal - you say to yourself - I only have 3 hrs till dinner - I can do that - and then you give yourself credit for doing it I know that stress here at work makes me want to eat - I will go into gf office and eat a small handfull of peanuts - well that 160 cal x 5 = 800 cal of unplanned snacks - so I went an put a sticky on it - No unplanned snacks - I go in there when I am hungry (or should I say think I am hunger) and get a small handful - but that 800 x 5 x 52 is 41,600 cal over a year - that's 11 lbs Another thing and this one goes for me Everything little thing you put in your mouth counts - you can't say it doesn - just 20 extra calories a day over a years time equals a 2 pound weight gain - so it is important to know what you are eating - we can't say to ourselves - ah this won't matter - yes it does !!! So all I have done is eaten 50 extra calories a day to gain 5 lbs - we all think - oh what's 50 calories - well over a year it's a 5 lbs weight gain - We have to think of these things...

Well got out the house at noon -got my Target & food shopping done - got it put up and then sat down to read my book - Debbie called - then Sister called they will be here 2/6 they say they are going to move back in May - Wanted to know if room was still available - told them yes - I guess DN called and told them what happen yesterday - I will ck on the house next weekend. Making turkey meat loaf for dinner w/cauliflower for dinner - it's in the oven.. Got the dishwasher unloaded & reloaded - load of wash in.. Steph - Hugs on your FIL - Family is in my prayers... Colon Cancer is one of the most curable cancer so we are glad he's getting it taken care of.. Hugs on the Therapy - Yep it will get messy before it gets fixed.. I don't quilt - so can't help you there.. Snow - no thanks - where are the dogs?? Phyl aren't you just to freaking funny - oh ya like I need another animal :0) - DN was suppose to go today to get the rest of his stuff - doubt he did - but he will get it done hopefully before his Mom gets here... Candice wasn't your fault on the licorice - I saw a thing in 1st magazine that the sf stuff wasn't too bad - and I haven't had red licorice in ages - so bought some yesterday - it's won't call me like chocolate does - so it's no biggie and calories were only 920 total so I'm cool.. Food today - coffee a 1/2 oz of Jerky - bag of pt chips 130 - was making popcorn when Sis called - but then forgot all about it - so I really wasn't hungry bored... So started dinner and will eat then.. I suggest this Beck Solution book - It says a lot of the stuff I always preach about - like how we think skinny pple can eat any and everything and stay skinny - well that just ain't true She explains it alot better about how to talk to yourself when you want to eat and shouldn't than I do.. But I gotta say if you read this book you will say - Oh Janet said that just in a diff way - I am on page 54 Day 1 - making cards up with the reason you want to lose or maintain - or you can put it on your computer as a screen saver and you have to read it twice a day.. cbl

Good Morning Gang.... Yep Karri - you can't run 40 miles a week and excessive exercise for the purpose of keeping weight off isn't healthy - I know that's not your case - but read this in the Beck Solutions last nite ;0) I agree about using the band- I think that's one of the reason I went in for a fill. I liked eating more - but with us that more keeps turning in to more and then the weight comes back on. Glad you had a good time with your game nite - I saw of FB a pic of one of your games that Lee posted a pic of... Karla - I neated the house up some - needed to wash the front walk way but didn't cuz I wasn't dressed to do major cleaning - and I couldn't find a broom - so next weekend I guess I will go w/some cleaning supplies and hopefully he's gotten his stuff out by then and neaten up some more - The house need some work - I just want to get it sold - I want to be done w/this estate stuff.. Well Andrew went out last night - phone rings at 4 - he's stranded - so there I go schlepping out at 4 in the morn to pick him up.. I did got back to sleep around 5:30 - slept til 8:30 - read the paper then this lite cook book - oh it has some good recipes - which I think could be made even liter :0) will post them later Yesterdays food 1/2 c steel oats (100)- lite mocha frap w/2 shot (100)- 1 15 grm pt snack (120)- Eggbeater Omeltte with habenero cheese (200)- 2 sf puddings (120)- 8 licorice sticks (280) = 920 cal for the day. Well need to get moving - the day is wasting - it's cold but sunny - got food shopping to do - Target shopping and wash - CBL
