Dinner was good - I ate good tonite - am finally full.. Glad you enjoyed the soup ;0) Cooking for at least a couple days is always good - I usually make a cup of rice and it will last me all week I keep missing her (Linda) on chat - plus chat hasn't been working that great when we did connect I am taping biggest loser - I can't stand the susspends - I have to be able to ff thru the commercials I didn't watch it last week so I don't know who made it to the finals -

Ok fed the dogs - changed my clothes - put dinner in the oven to warm up (had the same thing for dinner last night - I usually always makes dinner for at least 2 nights - only have to cook once) Andrew's dinner is cooking pork chops & pasta.. Phyl - What movie did you see yesterday... I still want to see precious and blindside - maybe this weekend - who knows.. Candice - what's up - how's the puppy & peter... Well you know it's only the 4 of us who post regularly What the hell happen to Steph - Karla & Phyl- you need to bug her I already have 3 times... Jackie - how are you doing - How's Court Kari - how are you Denise - done painting... Linda keeps iming me on facebook - but I am on lbt and by the time i get back she's off line.. Well gotta wait til someone answer me :0) CBL

Karla vent away - hell your 6th graders would have never made it in Andrew's 6th grade school - He was doing cornell notes - Science project - a thesis on the rain forrest (really a 900 word essay - I think that was what it was plus a poster board) Algerbra - Hugs Hugs Hugs... Well I didn't make the gym had to go by accountants office then get gas - my excuse is I hate going to the gym at 5 with all the other pple who get off work and hit the gym then - I like getting there at 4:20 when the rush hasn't started - how do you like that for an excuse... I am starving - real hungry - bf - dry cereal - lunch pbj on lite bread - didn't fill me up at all. Walked away from the cookies - so ya me... Dinner - lamb shank - roasted onion, potatoes & carrots... CBL WTF is it about tiger woods - I don't give a flying F - what's wrong with america !!!

Good Afternoon.... Busy at work today.. On hold right now w/ortho doc to make appointment about knee issues.. Appointment 8:45 a.m on Furlough Friday with a PA who can order test... I had to leave the lunch room this afternoon at lunch - we got a delivery of Cheryl Cookies - they are the freaking best.. So deal is - no treats at work so I can have xmas cookies w/Kaitlin & Brooke when they come for Xmas Hell I will let everyone else gain 10 lbs during the holidays :0) and they will all look at me with such great admiration for having such great will power :0) Plus I am going to Florida in Feb to meet the ladies from my mentor thread.. So that's another incentive to keep the weight off.. Ok back to work :0)

Karla OMG you think just like me - I thought the same thing !!! (about if I had left on time) I have been married twice to the same guy and I have 2 dogs and 1 cat :0) But I guess I have turned lesbian (not really - i'm still a hetro-x sexual - since I haven't had any in like 8 yrs - I'm a nun ;0) Angel is a girl dog and she is the one that sleeps with me EVERY night - on the side of the bed that a dh would occupy - Bear sleeps with me most nights but not every night

Good Evening Gang... I didn't make the gym - got stuck in traffic accident - a semi jack knifed - took me 1 hr 15 minutes to get home - I left work a little late cuz I was talking to my gf - it was 4:15 and got in the jam got home at 5:30 Jackie - I agree next hubby being a dog (the 4 legged kid) Hugs you will get through this.. Phyl Andrew is related to Earl - I came home and he had both the slider and front door open - it was 64 degrees in here...

GF you got a b- be happy - c is passing - wtf you are putting too much pressure on yourself.. I think 83 is a fantastic grade - especially with all that you have on your plate at the moment - EMU oil is great for the skin Since I hit menopause my skin is really dry Well Good Morning Gang - Back at work - is dark cloudy and raining :0) I have my sweater skirt - boots - sweater and leather jacket on - I love winter weather - My DIL called right now - it's snowing where they live (Stockton Area) it hasn't snowed there in 15 yrs and it's her 1st snow fall - omg 32 and never seen snow falling ;0).. I guess since we had a house in the mountains when I was a kid I have seen it snow :0)

I have been wrapping all afternoon - my back and shoulders are about done - wrapping chapstick - ugh... Got 5 more to go I use to be a great wrapper - but realized the kid's don't care so I don't do much.. And got bags for my gf's at work Found the top that I got for Kaitlin - $5 reg $14 it was in the bottom of Brooke's stuff - never found the tea I got for my Uncle - so had to buy some more but it was only $5 - I did really good price wise on my shopping got alot of stuff on clearance at Marshall's & Ross Well will have to turn the alarm back on tonight But only have to work 4 day Well back to wrapping - I just want it done !!

My cable co is changing their line up again so that you have to have a box to watch certain channels - but I read something today where you can get a box for 1 yr free I don't know if I would quailfy since i already have one box well take that back now cuz mine is dvr it cost $9 a month - but I couldn't live without it - I have a cable box in the living room (dvr) but we don't have them for the bedrooms - I have the one above basic cable - but don't get movie channels - but truly I don't watch much that requires the box - and I don't watch that much tv in my room and don't think the line change will affect andrew much either.. Ya with the kids coming too up alot of time that I could have used differently - but heck I most likely would be still complaining that I didn't have enough time :0) - there never seems to be enough ;0).. Sweetie I love hearing about diff stuff so keep posting - like you said it's an evening of entertainment and got you to change your focus - WTG Well I am headed to Target - CBL

Good Morning Gang... Had an OK time last nite - thought the party started at 5 got there around 5:30 - well you know how you get something in your head - well it was 6 not 5 - but no biggie.. The group has changed alot and and I only really knew/like 3 pple there - Debbie flaked and didn't go - got home around 10 ate some of my soup ( at party had 1 prime rib bone - meat is usually over done imho and the rib part is still rare a little mashed tato & salad - 1 pb ball and 1 cheese cake bite) Then I had 2 pieces of fudge :0) - I am going to have to freeze that stuff.. Woke up at 7 - am having coffee scanned the paper and that's about it.. Candice - I don't know much about channeling - but as long as it puts you in a better place - that's good ;0) Ask for your book back since it's obvious L hasn't read it ;0) I love doggies - but I hate the whole potty training - Cats are so much easier - give them a box and that's it ;0) Phyl - Sounds like you really has a BIG walking day - I am glad you are going to DS for Xmas.. Hope you are able to sneak away to get that gift for Earl :0) - I know that's hard sometimes.. Karla - Batman?? I guess it's not my kind of movie :0).. I watch HGTV alot and of course QVC but I get in trouble with that station - Plus I read alot too.. Glad you got a nap - I love when I get to nap ;0).. Well back to work tomorrow for me ;0( - I don't know where 2 weeks went - didn't get half of the stuff I planned on doing done.. Well it will get done eventually - not going to sweat it - Well just cking in - CBL

Good for you !!!

Ok then quit... You are letting them win - let it go... Why are you still bummed??? What is bugging you - you can't change other pple - use the secret on them :0)

You may be too tight - the whole stress of having a baby (congrats on that ;0) I would stick to mushie/full liquids and contact your doc.. Also, once at support group someone said to eat ice chips can't hurt - Good Luck - Call your doc...

food Diary (count calories & pt grms) Eating Healthy 98% (not dieting) allowing for treats 2% Exercise As my signature say - Eat healthy + Exercise + Band = Success! Not thinking the band was going to do it for me - I did it I did 75% of the work and the band did the other 25% by providing restriction ..

I have sifted thru gifts - I swear I bought Kaitlin a blouse from Marshalls and My Uncle some tea - but I can't find them... Got a load of wash in - my feet are cold and I am still dresses from the gym (socks & tennis shoes) yoga pants - top and lite hoodie house says 70 - outside 56 - but I'm cold.. Karla - I'm not hungry (well just had a bite of chicken) but hanging around the house will do that. Girl you shampoo your carpets a lot ;0) but with dogs going outside I guess they do mess up the carpet - Lucky I have grass yr round so don't have that problem - but sheba leave dirt on my bathroom counters ;0) Watching TMC - I love old black/white movies :0)

Well I still haven't showered - why when I gotta get dressed for tonite - so will fart around here - wash - sort gifts - read and cook my soup till I have to leave at 5 CBL

I saw we posted at the same time :0) I had my ipod and was listening to music but not the same on the bike as it is on the treadmill - the gym has a whole bunch of tv's with close caption going - but some had cartoons on - and the one I could read had that show on it - can't remember the name - I would have rather been watching GMA but that tv was too far away.. Thanks - I love lima bean soup good memories cuz my mom made it ;0)- I may just go to the store and make some more today with our gloomy cold weather - but I love it.. I know you come for the sunshine - but since I live here 24/7 and get sun all summer - I enjoy this kind of weather -

it's 66 in the house :0) I may have to turn on the heater- I hate the smell when you first turn it on ;0) Those are tiny piece of fudge - so if you had 2 don;t sweat it - heck think of all the stuff dh eats in front of you ;0) you have control - you havent eaten it all - I had a piece last night myself -

Looks like all 3 of us posting at the same time - yep it is chilly isn't it... Yep I was drinking crangrape light (40 cal 8 oz) which is my fav but can only find it at stater bros - target use to carry it but they haven't lately.. Cranraspberry is my 2nd fav... I figure you would think I was drinking wine too :0) the color was a little off - at one time I chugged it - and I thought oh they are going to think I am an alcholie :0)..

She (Phyl) is lurking ;0) I am back from the gym - I gave the bike a try - sorta boring I like the treadmill better - but did work up a sweat - did 14.5 miles in 58 minutes at level 10 burned 501 calories - my quads were tight when I got off the bike - we will see how my knee does - think I may take a book next time - did watch a rerun of a show I can't think the name of (christine and her hubby who's sis & bil) live in their guest house - it did help the time pass.. who/what is the griz ?? hocky football ?? I need to do something - I can't be lazy today...

Good Morning Peeps... Candice -How old is this little girl?? I guess I am lucky I would say most of our office gets along - there is a little back biting but not much - Hope her seeing the quilt makes her understand that you don't hate her... Well it's almost 7 - got up around 6:30 gotta hit the gym in a few on my 1st cup of coffee.. Karla must have slept in this morning - Good :0) Phyl are you guys going to the tamale fest today or tomorrow - I hate that my gf always has her xmas partry this weekend when there is so much more to do - I really wanted to go see the Temptations tonite - plus they have that parade in palm springs and the Tamale fest.. I don't think I will be drinking tonite or staying late - I plan on taking cran rasberry to drink ;0).. Had some fudge last nite - not too much but had some ;0)

Kari really it is slow compared to how much it use to be in the very beginning ;0) - it's just that you don't come and visit much anymore :0).. Karla - Yep I feel like you have been with us for the whole 2.5 yrs - You are a lucky #7 - now we just got to get Steph to come back :0)... Get some sleep it does help ;0).... Sweet dreams

Candice How did your little meeting go..

GF HUGS HUGS HUGS !!! Pple don't send cards like they use to - I use to get them - but those days are sorta gone - it's all email and I thought Xmas cards in the mail would be a nice thing - instead of bills and discount stuff that we can't afford anyway.. We all are cutting back - I got most of my gifts at Target Marshall's & Ross - it's not about the cost it's about the thought behind it.. I have an Xmas club savings account - so every Nov I have Xmas $$ I'm like you - I would have left a note too - I did tell my trainer that cuz of the furloughs I might have to quit - so he lowered my fee - he rather lose a little be than all of it :0) so you could have just ordered your fudgesicles ;0) Angel fights bear about their treats - sometime Angel is up on the couch w/me and bear comes by and she will snap at him.. You have friends - You have us - I am so glad Steph brought you to us...
