TracyK

Good morning violets~ Haydee-love the pics! I agree with everyone else, you look beautiful! Terry-did you ever go get the .1 fill? How is it working? Have a great day off! Good morning Judy...I see you! Today is dd last swim lesson. She is glad too cause she is not too keen on that not holding her nose business. Have a great day everyone!

Kat-I hate it when parents teach their kids to be mean. The sad thing is that the kids do not know they are doing anything wrong...they are just doing what the mom & dads say. Example...my nephew and his ife taught their little girl (who was about 3) to tell her grandma "eat another twinkie, fat girl". OMG, had she ever said anything like that to me or anyone around me I would have had a knockdown dragout with my nephew. It is just wrong on SO many levels!! I am so glad you called her dad about it! Good for you!

Salmon...I have never had it either and everyone has said it is really good. I am just not really the type to try something I have never had...I wanna try it, I just can't seem to make myself :smile2:

I am halfway done with my water intake for the day.... how about you all?

Haydee-I can not wait to see pics too. It sounds like you did a great job! Congrats on the NSV...awesome job !! And as far as Terrys' post...YA, WHAT SHE SAID! That is what I was trying to say this morning, you are just an artist with words! :biggrin:

Laura-yes you missed something...I am still in the 2s. Believe me, when I am back in the ones...EVERYONE will know it and there will be no wondering...lol

WOOOOHOOOOOO....now THESE are the kinds of posts that I just love to read and make me feel like I can do anything because you ALL are so great! With this kind of excitement and enthusiasm, who won't lose weight? RIGHT? I swear....WE TOTALLY ROCK! :thumbup:

What a coincidence...I am Tracy too. Just a little older version :thumbup:

:shades_smile: roflmao...that cracked me up. Thanks, I REALLY needed that! I am glad Keesha got hoh last night. I hope she puts Jesse up but I doubt she will.

Way to go Laura & Tracy...I am also 'sober' for today so far :thumbup: GO US!! Terry-those are just too cute!

Kat-thanks for the suggestions for macy. Can you believe I have looked into/done that? The church we went to recently, we have not joined yet so, that is in the works. I looked all over and searched the net for VBS around here for her but they all had them in June :thumbdown: so we missed out on that. I was thinking about going up o her day care and asking them to put my phone number in the kids folders (the parents I am familiar with). Your idea about asking the lady to let her dd come here a day or so in the week is a really good idea. If/when she calls I will ask her! Thanks! Jenn-we are fine as far as Dolly is concerned. Hopefully we can get some of her rain bans though. It is very dry around here. Our grass is dying as we speak! We had a small storm this morning but we need more. Pammie-when I get into onederland again will will do the naner boobies for me? That is the real reason I gained all this weight back...I enjoyed the show so much I wanted to see it again :thumbup: LMAO Today is library and swimming lessons day :cursing: hmmmmm, a cop car just stopped in the street right in front of my house...wtf? Maybe I am gonna see some action! :sneaky: bbl, have a great day everyone!

:thumbdown::thumbup::sneaky::cursing: Hey Laura-try that "just for today" mentality. It has worked for me the past few days. If it doesn't work then Terry and I can come to Alabama and smack you!

:seeya: I wanna slap you Tracy!! :ihih: Laura-when you figure it out...let ME know. That is what I was doing to myself....at least you can stop at 1 pound still. Wish I could! Use me as an example of what NOT to do

OH OH....Pamela!!! I have been meaning to tell you but I forget... I got your postcard this past weekend! Better late than never, right?! Thanks, I loved it! I also bought you a b-day card and it is sitting right next to me with Suzie and Terrys get better cards....I am out of stamps and never remember to get them when I am out! lol It is a cute card too! Maybe I will scan the cards & e-mail them to ya'll. LOL

Jenn-it is so good to wake up and see youo posting again. How did I get back to where I am....ummmm, stuffing my face, eating the wrong things BUT, I am still a non-smoker. I have had lots of changes and been stressed and anxious. I am a stay at home mom now. Quit my job after 18 years ...EEK! DH just started his new job yesterday. So now that everything is back to normal I am just trying to get back on track now and lose what I gained. I am going to get a fill (soon I hope) when the money flow gets back to normal. If I can just not gain 20 more pounds before my fill I will be in good shape....lol How are your kids doing? Enjoying the summer? Terry-I have called the Y (great minds think alike, right?). Right now with the membership fee, we just can't right now. Unfortunately by the time we could join, it will be back to school time. I have also looked on craigs list for play groups but it is basically SAHMs wanting to make some money while your child plays with their child (babysitters masqeurading as playgroups)...not a bad deal if you are the SAHM that is making the money...lol. If it weren't already so late in the summer I would start one. I ran into a mom of one of macys friends from daycare and told her what was going on and gave her my number so she can call me to let the girls play together. That would mainly be a weekend kind of thing though :biggrin: I just do not know what to to. It is times like this I wish she would have been twins...at least she would have someone to play with. I am glad that your mom is doing a little better. Prayers are still going out for her! (and you) Kat-you are making me tired just reading about what all you have going on! WHEW! DH found out a cool perk about his new job....they reimburse us half of any gym membership we have! Pretty nice, right? That is worth looking into! I want a Wii Fit but OMG...talk about expensive if you are having to buy all of it at once! Too much going on right now. Maybe Santa will bring me one? Doesn't hurt to dream.... I will be back later! Have a great day violets!

gawlee...at least I did not use the icon that moons ya.... Tracy-congrats on the 176:thumbup:

:caked:I know that silly! :eek:

Ummm, that would make her "the boss", right? lol (sowwy, I just HAD to say that) :eek::tt2:

Ummmm, why so quiet today everyone? (Hi Jane-we posted at the same time )

LOVE the icon Judy....plus...I see you lost a couple...WAY TO GO!

Good morning violets! I am up already. This is the earliest I have been up since July 3rd! DH just left for his first day @ his new job :sneaky: How exciting! Terri-Believe it or not, that was the first time Frank and I had ever been to the beach together, much less with Macy. (we used to live in Galveston too and had never gone while we lived there, unreal). The water from afar was beautiful blue & green but the seaweed was rolling in bad. September or October would be my fav time to go cause the weather would be milder. It was scorching yesterday so we did not stay too long but macy had a blast! Welcome back Kat We missed you! Pamela and Jane-who do u like/dislike on bb so far? I can not stand the body builder guy (Jesse?). I do not like that whole little group as a matter of fact. So far (subject to change, LOL) I like the catholic school teacher, the old man, Keesha & Angie and the gay cowboy. When are they going to see that they all need to join forces to be able to outnumber the other group? Stevie Wonder could see that is their only chance! lol Haydee-how did everything go this weekend? Suzie-have you had any REAL quality time with your pool yet? Are you loving it? Jenn-we are back at the same weight again, so come on sister, lets go! TracyinKS-did you have an ice cream free weekend? I didn't. Forgive me father for I have sinned.... Terry & Haydee-look out...Tropical Storm Dolly is in the gulf :ohmy: UGH....I wish they could predict these things better. Laura-hi chickkie!! How are you? Did you do any studying this weekend? When are you supposed to graduate? Judy-I sure miss seeing your little icon that you used of the cheerleader :blushing: It inspired me so much. If (when) I make it under 200 again will you improvise? Denise-when you get your pool we can schedule a pool party at your house :wink: We can pool hop from Suzies house to yours then Judys and by then maybe Pamela will have one?! Have any of you tried the new coffee creamer called Cinnamon Bun? OMG!! Michelle-no hurry on the books, other than summer will be over in about 6 weeks, but no pressure :wink: lol But seriously, to keep you from the trouble of mailing them maybe there is a web site I can go to for ideas. Do you know any? Guys, I am really sad for Macy cause she misses her friends at school. She is even drawing pics of them :biggrin: But when I ask her if she wants to go back to school (day care) to play with her friends she says "NO, but they can come over here". I thought about a mothers day out 2 or 3 times a week for a few hours for just the social benefit...we will see how this week goes. Have a great day violets!

Hi everyone! We had a last at the beach. Gotta love the brown water & seaweed....but it was still fun :teeth_smile: Judy-delayed response about weight loss is better than no response at all, eh? :thumbup: Have a restful evening evryone....will see you all in the morning!

Good morning violets! Jenn-it is so good to see you posting again! Looks like things are looking up for you sista! I am happy about that :drool: Terry-prayers to you and your mom. I am so sorry for what you are going through. I know how it hurts you to wish that God would take her, I totally understand. (((hugs))) Denise-beautiful house! I'll bet you are SO excited! Have you started packing yet?! lol Judy-reading your post about your PBs last night made me think about something. When I was tighter I PBd alot AND my stomach growled all the time. But, I was losing weight too (I guess due to not eating as much, go figger!). Solidifies my choice to get filled back up. I wish I did not have to wait 1 or 2 more months to do it though... Pamela-I saw 2 rotties at the SPCA yesterday. A male and a female. I love rotties but am too scared to get ones from the SPCA. They are already a year old so I do not know their background or anything. When I saw them I thought of you and your dog Sorry I can't do any more personals right now...gotta run. Going to the beach today :tt2: Take care!!!!!!

((((((Jen)))))) I missed you!!

Judy-I can not think of a better Lap-Band Rep than you!! Have fun today :scared2:
