TracyK

I have huge news...at least for me it is and I know that the "violets" will be able to appreciate this kind of break through. I just got in from....drumroll........cutting me grass with a push mower!! I have never done the whole thing by myself...my DH is so proud of me. My hands are still trembling from doing it. But the first thing I did was run in here to tell you all about it. LOL Yes, it is 8:30 PM and the neighbors are probably thouroughly pissed off at me cutting the grass so late, but who cares? So, there, I can officially say I exercised today!!!! Laura-you can see such a huge difference!! YOU GO GIRL!! Michelle-congrats on the 5 pounds & moving the ticker!! Kat-I am not MIA...just listening to the quiet since my babygirl is gone. I read the posts about all the hair coloring going on...what a coincidence...I colored mine today. Great violets think alike!! I am going to take a bath. I will post my haircut pic tomorrow. (still nervous though) Good night friends....

BOO Jennifur!!

Kat-I hope you feel better this morning! I took the day off today. My mom & step dad are coming to visit and to pick Macy up for the weekend. Another "momma" weekend Terri-happy restriction to you (or at least I hope it is not too much) Way to go on the new low!! Jennifur-way to go girlie!! I know how happy you must be with the scale on the move again!! I am so happy for you! TracyKS-do what is best for you and your family....that is the bottom line and we all wish you the best!! I miss Judy...I bet she is having a ball!! My TOM is finally winding down. Thank goodness. I have so much restriction when it is this TOM. That is a good thing though considering when it is TOM I like to eat...lol Since Macy is going to be gone this weekend I plan on getting some exercise in (i hope terri is listening) Pamela-are you going to watch the game show that the BB girls are on? It comes on Tuesday before BB. I do not normally watch that game show, but I will since Amber & Daniele are going to be on it. Who do you hope ends up being the winner of BB? I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Yay Jen!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tracy-I agree with the others about "do it" but no secrets. You don't need to hide anythng. Then PARTY!! At fast food places when you order a medium drink it is the size of a 2 liter....I think they are trying to kill us....its a conspiracy.

I do not try breads or donuts of any kind...too scared to. Terri-watermelon?? really? That sucks!! I have not tried it yet. Everyone have a super-duper WWJD day!!

Terri-I just got my WWJD bracelet!! How beautiful.....thank you so much!! I am wearing it right now and plan on keeping it on!! Thanks for such a pretty reminder of our journey we are all taking together!! ((((((((((hugs)))))))))))

by the way...my DH b-day was yesterday and he has a giant chocolate chip b-day cookie with icing on it...OMG I have to get that biotch out of my house like right NOW!

Janie-you are describing the cut I already have basically. It just look so flat on my scalp. Maybe its just me thinking that. I wish you could come cut my hair!! Terri-I have a really good place I go to get it done. Believe me, I know about the "you get what you pay for" thing. Believe me, been there, done that. I will probably just put myself in her hands...I trust her that much. Still nervous though. You know how it looks great when you walk out and then it never looks like that again!! LOL Pamela-isn't it fun to buy clothes? I don't blame you one bit. It does us good to splurge on ourselves every so often!! Everyone have a great day!!

Ya'll, I have an appt to get my hair cut Saturday and I am a nervous wreck. I want a change to go with my changing bod, but I am scared to jump too far off the bridge with it. I have very thin hair and a very wide forehead. I used to always have bangs to cover my wide forehead, but as I get older it seems like my hairline is slipping back further & further like a balding old man, and quite frankly they would probably have to go halfway to my crown just to get enough bangs...that would sart to look like a comb-over do. NOT. I like Terris' haircut...but am scared to go that short. Terri, is your hair thin or thick? I don't really want to have to get up every morning and do the curling iron thing because I don't have that much time anymore.... I guess I will just get them to layer the heck out of it to give the appearance of more hair... Right now it is about shoulder length and practically all the same length so my hair looks flat and greasy every day even though I wash it. UGH! then there is the problem of my roots are growing out... OK, enough ranting....must be TOM coming out in me. EEEK!

Haydee-I second what Tracy#1 said...I love your pic too. What a pretty lady you are!

Oh....and water water water....

Hmm let me think....yesterday I ate: Slimfast (chocolate) Low Carb for breakfast 190 Cal Snack-1/2 banana 50 cal approx Lunch-salisbury steak & 1 or 2 bites of the mashed potatoes 230 calories Dinner-1C Honey bunches of oats cereal 1/2 cup 2% milk 220 calories This is pretty much the same thing I have every day, maybe just in a different order with a different kind of meat

Welcome back Kat-we missed you! Happy belated b-day! Terri-be strong today...you can do it!! Everyone have a great day!

Wow, so many people I want to talk to and so little time... TracyKS-woohooo for the 220somethings....I am so happy for you!! Terri-I know what you are going through. I am a smoker too. I am not going to try to quit untlil I am almost at my goal weight. I know my limits and quitting now???...that would definitely push me strait over the edge. Best of luck to you!! Jenn-congrats on the inches!! YAY YOU!! Pamela-thanks for the tip about the you tube clips for BB. I will do it over the weekend when I have some time. My good news is that as of this morning I had not gotten my TOM yet so I jumped on the scales and I still lost a pound today to 208....so water weight or not, it still went down...how cool is that!! Everyone have a great evening!!

TracyKS-you and your friend look like you could be a handful when you get together!! You look awesome! Jenn-I am doing the same thing I always do. Eat about 800-900 calories a day and plenty of protein. Sorry that you ae stuck. I know how that sucks. My TOM has not started yet, but I sure it will be any day now. Pamela-you get the BB live feed? I wish I did. I am a die hard fan too. Everyone have a great Monday!!

Michelle-hope the party turns out fantastic!!

Congrats Judy, on the pound loss and on the NSV. That is fantastic!! Jenn-doesn't it feel great to be complimented? Good for you!!

Hi Sara!! Nice to finally see you up close!! What a huge difference in the pics!! You look so different. What a pretty lady! Good news....I went shopping this afternoon and I am now officially in single digit pantie sizes!! Alos....Size 16 jeans, yes they are elastic but so all all my other ones. 16....how sweet! I can't remember the last time I wore that size!!! I had to share my good news. Have a great night!

Denise-I third what Judy & Terri said. You need to find the "skinny thinker" in you. Once you do...everything will fall into place.

Nope Michelle, sorry to disappoint you but Evil Dick is still there. That is why I was glad. So, we have different likes & dislikes of people in the house. Dick & Danielle (or Jen, I can't believe I just said that) are the only people that I actually hope win the darn thing. I jumped for joy when that jerk Dustin got voted off last night. He was a pompous as**. That whole "late night crew" make me sick. If I see Amber cry one more time I think I will eat a bullet. Now if they can get rid of Jameka & Amber. I just like it when there are controversial people in the house that speak their minds instead of a bunch of boring people that ride everyone elses coat tails. YIKES...you got me on one of my favorite subjects so i could type a blue streak!! Tracy-glad your back!! We missed you and congrats for not gaining any weight!! You must be glad about that! Terri-you are a poster child for indurance...hang in there!! You are doing awesome!! Jenn-Glad you and your mom had some good quality time Everyone have a great evening and week-end!!

Big Brother went exactly as I wished it would on last nights episode, so today I am a happy camper YES, I am a BB nerd, but proud of it. lol Well, TOM is rapidly approaching so I am going to try to beat myself away from the scales because I know it would only be depressing. TGIF!!! Everyone have a great one!

Haydee-Yes, I am watching the storm very closely. I work in Galveston & live about 15 miles north of there. Congrats on the house :Banane20: Lickboxing...my kind of exercise!! Where do I sign up? I am a chunk loser too. Nothing for days & days, then whoooooosh!!
