  1. Betty, have fun running all over today What do you usually bake for the holidays? I never bake ahead of time but maybe I should start. Lisa, i would have busted into tears. Being fat is something every overweight parent hopes their kid never realizes, but they do don't they. I gotta say that I remember being embarassed because my father was very big. I also remember never saying anything b/c i knew even then how much that would have hurt his feelings and I felt ashamed for feeling like that. Your daughter is sweet and its wonderful that she feels she can tell you the truth. HUGS to you !!! Patty, if it were me, I would not want my Ex's wife there, or the kid. Just tell him (your ex) that you are not ready for such a move, not yet.... IF thats how you truly feel. Follow you heart... you know whats best for YOU and YOUR kids Good luck and sorry he is doing this to you. Be strong.
  2. Hang in there Daniela. Hugs !!
  3. I agree.... TRAIN THE BRAIN !!!! If you start your day off saying its gonna be crappy then its gonna be crappy and so on. I'm with you Crystal... "POSITIVE THINKING"
  4. Congrats on the WL !!!!! Keep up the good work.
  5. Hey Kelly, I'm so thrilled you all liked them. Easy peasy huh. When I go back to work next week I'll be making them for my Breakfast. I freeze them and grab one on the way out the door so by the time I get to work they are defrosted and I only nuke them for a few seconds. I hope you didn't give out the recipe...you should tell them its an old recipe from your grandma that you just can't give out LOLOL !!!! just kidding Your very welcome !! Sandra, 1/2 and 1/2 is in the dairy section by the heavy cream. Its 1/2 milk 1/2 cream. You can use anything to the recipe, modify it to fit your diet.
  6. I have no clue what I would do. Wire my mouth shut...but then I can picture myself trying to shove pizza up my nose. I don't know.
  7. Last year I bought this DVD: Bellydance Fitness for Weight Loss featuring Rania: Hip Drop Hip Hop - STINKS !!!! Wish we had a place we could rent them instead of buying them.
  8. Good Morning, How is everyone after that long holiday weekend? I still can't believe I go back to work in 1 week. Sigh, I love being a SAHM. But I shouldn't complain, my job is good and the bennies are what counts. Today I am just gonna tidy up the house and I have a truck load of laundry I need to do. How about you ? Beanie, you back?????
  9. I hope your feeling better soon Karen. Hugs !!!!

    Hey Coco, I'm glad to hear your back on mushies and your going to succeed. I was starving from day 1. I mean I remember laying in the hospital wishing I had a burger, thats how bad it was. The only reason I stayed with what the doctor said to do was because I was scared. The healing part is just to important to me. Your not alone, hang in there. We're all learning right along with you. Good Luck !!

  14. Good Morning Everyone !!! I can't believe I have one more week and I have to go to work (dec 5th) where did the time go? I would like to drop 3 lbs b/4 I go back so I'm gonna work it this week, I'm even gonna get on the treadmill but I'm gonna go slow. I ditched all the pies and goodies in the house the other day b/c every time I went in the kitchen I took a bite of something. Uhhh!!!! So mutha hubbard's cupboard is bare LOL. Whats happening with you all today ?
  15. Betty, enjoy your campfire tonight, and yes, it sounds soooo good !!! I don't have it all together, I'm just a maniac that can't sit still very long... oh and impatient too. LOL. Cindy, have a safe trip. I have no advice to give you for your DD, from the sound of it your handling it like any good Mom would. Your G'ma looks so sweet, and she sounds like a wonderful lady with a wonderful family. Where's Beanie ?
  16. Parvathi thats what I would think. Eating and going right to bed is not a good thing. After reading a bunch of posts about things like this, I stoped eating past 7 pm. Hope your feeling better Cindy !!
  17. Oh ick. Hope your feeling okay today.

    Tammy Tammy Tammy, gosh girl, you have every right to vent. So sorry your dinner and weekend aren't going well. PB 6 times !!!!!!!!!!! you do need an unfill, lordy. Hope by monday things are back in order. Call your BF and give him heck!!! MEN!!!! Hugs !!! Cindy I also ate a little of everything. Just last night I threw the cheesecake and pumpkin pie in the garbage b/c I was walking thru the kitchen sneaking a bite every time I passed the counter. NOT a good thing to do. When I had the turkey I made sure each bite was w/cranberry sauce or gravy. I took my food scissors and cut tiny tiny tiny pieces b/c I was scared LOL !!! it worked
  19. Good Morning, Cindy I'm sorry to hear about G'ma.....sigh. It sounded like she lived a very good long life and thats really wonderful. Now she gets to go home and be with the Lord and her children. Imagine how happy she must be being reunited with her loved ones, and the beauty of God is that He promised we will all see each other again. God is Good !!! Rejoyce in your Grandma's new life, a life of peace with Jesus, how awesome. Hugs and kisses to you. Its a cloudy day here in jersey, but thats okay. Lots of things to do inside. Whats everyone doing today?
