  7. I am probably about 90 miles away from you...just a guess though.
  8. I agree...you ladies ROCK!
  9. We've have all been in that very same place. I was right there with you tonight. I had done very well all day long..and dang it if I did blow all my good intentions and have a piece of pumpkin cake that I made..I had already ate and in no way was I hungry. I wish I had the info on why food has such a hold on us. But I found some good things tonight about myself. I did exercise for 30 mins, I didn't eat after 7p and I did have 16 ozs of water this evening. So Callie, we are just going to have to stick together and beat this demon together. Find some good things out of the bad things we do. Tomorrow is a new day to try and break our bad habits.
  10. I hear you Laura, it is hard to keep it all in balance...I didn't make it to 1200 today, but still managed to rack up to 41% in fat...grrrr.
  11. You go girl!! Keep up the great work!
  12. Yes, AI is artificial insemenation.
  13. Penni...huggs girlie for everything that you are dealing with right now. I hope you get to be on Biggest Loser...that would be so exciting. Sending good vibes your way! Stay strong!
  14. I have been doing some light crunches...but haven't had any problems...but I haven't been doing them everyday.
  15. Super list of NSVs Jessie, keep up that awesome work!
  16. FANTASTIC!!! Those are awesome results! A big Thanks to Anne for hosting and posting! :-)
  17. I am really surprised at the exercise decree by your doc. My doc specifically said take it easy and only do some slow walking the first couple of weeks. He said no heavy exercising until after 6 weeks.
  18. Sounds like you are on your way! Welcome to bandland!
  19. Dr. B was my doctor. The Surgery Center does the fills. They are extremely good at it. I have had 3 fills so far. Never had a moments problem with them. You do have to do 48 hours of liquids and then 48 hours of mushies after every fill. I am usually in and out in under an hour and a 1/2.
  20. Welcome to bandland and it does get better one day at a time!
  21. Can never go wrong with beans and cornbread!! Of course when i was growing up we had to throw in some fried tators and some dewberry cobbler(man could my great-grandmother make this) with heavy cream for dessert...dang no wonder I am fat! *sigh* Granny Jones and Granny, I sure miss you ladies and your awesome cooking!
