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.........

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!

Hello............ well I just spent a good amount of time updating my civilian employee resume and applying for a Benefit Coordinator job on the base........ I'm flip flopping around... I'm just not a job hopper.... but it could be a good oportunity for me..... (see my boss is pretty much sticking it out here FOR me, he wants to retire when his wife does at the end of this school year, but he says he wants to make it 2 more years for SS, insurance and me to make the cut when the new admin takes over (Major NUN elections.. will mean a NEW "Community Director" AKA new Mother Superior.... if he retires now.. I may be reorganized to work with my nemisis (the one who gets me so worked up I end up in tears) Long story....... anyway...... working on Post is a LONG process and working for the Army kind of freaks me out too..... but it is VERY good benefits, and the Base gates are less than 2 minutes from my front door. The job is Benefits Coordinator..... (aka, what I do now) Anyway.... I'm freaking out right now.. even though I will hear nothing for a month or more.

I skipped a bunch of posts because I'm getting ready to head out the door............ I'm going to my support group meeting today and bringing Robby with me again since my mom is in Denver..... I did well yesterday.... LC the lunch (mexican) dinner ( meat from a mcdonalds cheese burger ) and 3 of Robby's chicken nuggets My friend fixed papa murphy's pizza and I had the will power to just eat the toppings off 2 pc and throw the crust away.. (meatlovers) I had two very weak crystal light/vodka drinks........ I STAYED LC all day.. even though I could of eaten the bad things, I had the willpower to keep to my plan.. I woke up to 186.2 so I'm happy. OK gotta go

uhhhh Laura will you email me that linkeepooo pls :grouphug: getting down my 3rd glass of water (60 oz's) OH ya.... mom had her first fill in Denver....... she asked how much it was and the dr said.. It' doesn't really matter how much.. my mom said........ oh but my daughter will be bugging me about it ... and you don't KNOW my daughter but its better if you just tell me! LOL They laughed and he told her "Linda... You have 3 cc's in your band!" So, I'm guessing she has the 10cm band... I have yet to see her id tag for the band. The good news is .. she weighed in at the docs at 266 (which means she is less at home, nekid, am) She started at 280. She went ahead and scheduled her next fill for 02/06/2009 since it would be free.. and she feels good about seeing her own doc. She may not need any more fills for a while after that. I'm taking her monthly pics and starting a chart for her.

Let us know what you find out Terry! Also... I'm patting myself on the back....... just had lunch with DH, at his fav mexican place..... I ordered the lunch fajhita (chicken) and ate ONLY the chicken, some beans and a bit of the sour cream! I STAYED LC! Normally, I would eat only chips.. dipped in the beans and salsa, AND lately......... ordering a side of the queso dip and eating it all.......... SO I AM VERY PROUD OF MYSELF
