    I just had a little bit of beef brisket, and I spent most of the evening in the kitchen hanging shelves and reorganizing..... I bought several kinds of SF syrups and as luck would have it... Charles actually had a nifty little bottle holder (from an old Starbucks) out in his shop..... I cleaned it up and put it out..... see in Charles line of employment, he works on Starbucks equipment, and when the have a corp mandated change.. sometimes he gets their old stuff..... anyway its pretty cool.

    Good evening......... I must of eaten something bad last night at Chili's because I didn't get far away from the bathroom today and ended up going home at lunch and taking a nap....... I've had a bite of skillet steak and that has been it except for the two spoons of almond butter and two glasses of Calorie Countdown milk.

    Today I will make better choices! I'm not so stressed about Robby because my celexa helps even me out! LOL Seriously though, he will have a perfect day, and then he will have a melt down the next... its mainly him not getting his way.. something he can turn on and off. I've also been trying to pick him up rather early from the after school care, because that is a hard part of the day for him. I'm definately NOT going to put him in the full time program over the summer.... Also..... I've been thinking seriously that it may have something to do with his maturity. You know he barely made the age cut off and I decided to TRY kindergarten... but there is this litte boy in his wrestling that we've gotten friendly with "parent wise" and he is only 3 weeks younger than Robby and he is still in Pre-K They wrestle at the same weight (he is actually the little boy wrestling Robby in the video I put on Facebook) Anyway.. after talking to his mom... I'm leaning towards the imaturity factor.... I plan to discuss this with his teachers at the next conference. We also have a big crazy year coming up....... a school bond passed so our school is on the list for a million dollar makeover and they are rerouting all the kids to various other schools during the remodel....... our PTA group is going to try and stick together having meetings ever few months.. as the principal doesn't want to lose the core group....... the OTHER Kindergarten teacher (the one that Robby does not have) told me that she hates it that Robby is in the ITR class, she told them to give him to her because he is very similar to her son.... (she is a very nice, very laid back, total opposite of his current teacher) I don't know...... but it did give me something to think about for next year.,,,,,, so I've been quiet about it....... but the stress isn't gone.

    Oh yeah........... I have brisket in the oven for overnight cooking and I'm going to make the pumpkin sausage Soup tomorrow........ I finished book 4 of the twilight series.. and it was by far the best! I think I'm going to re read the last chapter before bed.

    Good evening!!!!!! I started using heavy cream in my Low Carb days.. as 1 cup has 6 carbs versus 12 in milk........ I used a diluted mixure for SF pudding, soup, I use Heavy cream in my coffee...... it is great in recipe's but you have to realize it's NOT low fat... its LOW CARB...... I bought some chocolate Calorie Countdown and am right now having CC, Coffee, SF vanilla syrup, Vodka... over ice........ I this is my new vice!!!!!!!!!!!!! I sucked on eating all weekend........ and I haven't weighed......... blech.. Robby did good at wrestling yesterday and it was TOUGH!!! this was not a Novice tourney and those kids (even 6 years old were TOUGH) I put the video up on facebook....... he wrestled 5 times and got 4th place

    Did you ever have one of those nights where you just say... OH WHAT THE HELL???????????? That was me tonight........... if ONLY it were two french fries! LOL Guess I won't be hanging my feet off the scale in the morning!

    Tracy: Don't get down on yourself!!!!!!! I wanted to shoot the scale this morning..... I was good yesterday (at least pretty good) and the damn thing bounced back up to 188..... grrrrrr I tried hanging one foot off it, but still the same!!!!!!! So, Today is payday, and I got up early thinking about work.... couldn't go back to sleep and ended up getting around early enough to run to the grocery store that has a Starbucks in it........ I bought a big bottle of their SF Vanilla and they even threw in a PUMP! I had a couple bucks left on a gift card.. so by the time all was said and done I paid $6.00 for it...... Gina: We have Sams but I'm not a member. Robby has another wrestling tournament tomorrow.... FUN FUN... he loves wrestling, and it is so nice to see.

    Charles picked me up for "lunch" because he is off and I wanted out of here....... He had a SONIC shake and I resisted it! GO ME! He wanted to know if I was hungry I just said.. NO, I'm being good and I have the meatloaf... I am now finishing my 3rd glass of water... also today I had one of those ISOpure alpine punch protein drinks... I have to say that me figuring out just how good Calorie Countdown MIlk, SF choc syrup, coffee, vodka over ice is......... is DANGEROUS! My local coffee place is ordering me the Davinci SF Kahlua... I can't wait to try it!

    nibbling on the last of the meatloaf and drinking an Isopure alpine punch........ I've got to get back to the 170's....... I didn't want to admit this but my treasured size 10 levis had stopped fitting.... I made the mistake of washing and drying them and was so depressed when I couldn't get them buttoned..... that was when I started getting serious again. Tracy: Robby just told me last week that I had a fat tummy and that it looked like I had a baby in there..... its just something kids do!

    Good Morning! Mae: glad you liked the soup.. did you use tofu? Jenn: I'm proud of you! Michelle: Join the club!!!! we've all been out of control.. not a reason to go MIA! Kat: How is Rick feeling Terry: How is Owen? Laura: SOOOOOO CUTE!!!!!!! Fun Fun! Jane: How is the fill working? Suzie: What did the xray show? Pam: I FEEL FOR YOU!!!!! How are you doing today? TracyK: What's up girlfriend? Haydee: I finished book 3 of Twilight and I loved it.. ready for book 4.... go figure! Judy: Are you digging out of all the snow? Heather: How are YOU feeling today... are you nesting yet? Gina: How are you? Tonya: What's been going on with you in the new year? Did I miss anyone?????? LOL OK.... so I got a little to liberal last night in my search of a Low Carb white russian......... By the time it was said and done.. I had created a black russian...drank almost the etire carton of Calorie Countdown milk, 1/3 bottle of vodka, and close to half the bottle of the SF chocolate syrup... using some left over coffee I still had in the pot......... over ice........... IT WAS DELICIOUS........ dangerously delish! and full of protien!!!! LOL...... Full disclosure........ :tongue: Today is a new day and so here I am typing this eating the last of my mousse... I mean mouse.. LOL I brought in meatloaf again, but today I'm going to nibble on it so that I don't pb it. Have a wonderful wonderful day!

    WAY TO GO Terry! I am currently trying NOT to pb on the meatloaf that tastes so good I shovel it..... STUPID On another note........ I've been searching around this town for SF coffee syrups.. (Davinci, Torani... etc) Today I made a discovery.... Starbuck actually sells their brand of sugar free in about 6 flavors! I have a Starbucks inside the Price Chopper and although Price Chopper had Torani's the Starbucks had their own. I bought Rasberry and chocolate in the Torani, and I plan to go back and get the Cinnimon Dolche at Starbucks, but first I'm going to call around to some of the other little coffee places and see what they offer... (I'm really looking for a Kahlua SF syrup.. Davinci makes one)

    Good morning all............ I am getting ready to post a new video on my blog.... I've decided to do a short clip once a week to keep me motivated...... I over did it somewhere yesterday because I was bounced all the way back up to 190 today....... Oh well...... I know its fake because I'm actually starting to feel smaller again... like when I grab my hip bone and in my face.... One thing I have noticed......... when I eat to the pb level I usually end up gaining the next day...... and last night I made meatloaf..... and it was soooo good that I ate too much, too fast and you know the drill..... I did make a very yummy mouse last night and I just finished about 3/4 cup of it for my breakfast this morning... I'm trying to shake it up a bit....... make sure I eat something in the morning.. bigger meal at lunch and something small at dinner......... the mouse: 2 cups of heavy cream (whipped til thick) 1 bar of cream cheese 1 box of sf chocolate pudding This was very thick and very satisfying. OK.. going to go upload now...... Have a great day! and heather congrats on baby being a girl!

    Pie Hole Report! Coffee w/creamer 1 sf jello cup 1/2 serving of peanuts (trying to get some protein in) On my first glass of water Lunch is planned to be ham and cheese soup Dinner is something hambureger related maybe meatloaf. Jenn: you know my view of Kev... and after this I'm done lecturing you about it. You know what you have to do. let go. and until you are ready to do this.. you will be stuck in this pit of unhappiness. You are sabotaging any chance at future happiness, and I think YOU believe you don't deserve happiness.. which is why you are not letting go.... you are afraid of being happy. You have said yourself that Kev wants marriage or nothing.. its you that doesnt want to be trapped like that with his mental issues.... so by not letting go and moving on you are not allowing yourself to grow and heal.... YOU DO deserve happiness... and me typing this doesn't mean squat.. you have to believe it for yourself. I LOVE YA GIRLIE and I want you to feel deserving

    morning all! I had a very busy weekend........... I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned on Saturday.... We had Charles best friend and family over yesterday, and we had the boys...... and My sister popped over to bring me book 3 in the twilight series...... I finished it late last night. Ready for book 4 now. Tracy did not do so well on the eating............as Charles bought a 1 gallon tub of ice cream for floats..... Both Saturday and Sunday I had a huge bowl of ice cream complete with peanut butter and sprinkles. OH and I bought some Calorie Countdown milk and started experimenting with Low Carb White Russians! So Friday night I problably had half the carton of CC! LOL I'm going to buy the Davinci Sugar Free Kahlua syrup... Anyway .... this is how crazy my body reacts........ Friday was 183.4 Sunday 190....... today 187.. hopefully cutting out the ice cream and drinking my water will flush me back down to the low 180's Saturday I made the Ham and Cheese soup for the boys for lunch and they all liked it.. (no tofu) Have a great day!

    That might explain why my 18 year old niece hasn't finished it yet...... LOL.. still I want to read all 4. The snow has stopped and I am feeling so sleepy........ I'm coming down with something and I don't like it one bit. I need to clean the house tomorrow and it won't do me any good to have 4 boys underfoot and being sick!

    The Twilight series is a good read........ its easy as far as young adult literature goes. The book is better than the movie in that it goes into the "family" more. I'm finishing book two now. I've had some peanuts and coffee so far today.........

    I'm here I'm here............. I am coming down with DH cold or whatever and I've been reading the Twilight series.. plus wrestling, plus work, plus my boss is out today and Monday........... My fill is working........ the hunger pains have gone away I am more to my "comfort" zone of restriction.... probably more tight than you all like to be.. but for me..... RELIEF. To be full after a single bowl of tomato Soup.... heaven. I did have a few bites of chicken alfredo and had no problem with it........ The good news...... 183.4 this morning.

    Running by .. I am the Small Intestine today at Robby's school! LOL................ then I have a fill apt at 3:30.. I did not weigh last night because I ate the house.... Love and kisses........ and I wish I could pay off all my debt......... geesh..... Charles X is a Dave Ramsey follower and we hear A LOT about how she is paying off their house in 3 years! (with the child support that she is still getting) because it hasn't been adjusted since cody came to live with us........ but that is another story!
