LOL!!!!!!

I am just nibbling off my husband's and son's plates when we eat out!

My refrigerator is full of 1/2 consumed Greek yogurt containers and plastic storage containers filled w/ Beans and chicken.

Yup that's about right. We went out last night and I got a half rack of ribs. 2 was all I could eat. I took it home and have been munching on it little by little.

Haha....yep, that's it! I usually try to pick a protein-y appetizer & ask for a veg on the side.

Every time we go out I always order a regular portion..got tired of waiters asking me if I did not like the food and or could they get me something else. Once even the manager came over and asked me what was wrong with the food...

I have a built in cleaning department with me and he eats most of my left overs before I get up from the table. The rest he takes to work the next day....

I think he loves that!!!!!!!

Feels normal to me now!!!!!!!!!

I share with my husband. I have become a very cheap date to take out for dinner. If I do have left overs, I get three sometimes four meals out of it.

Grammy, your post reminded me that I'm a little behind on updating my profile, by about 60 pounds or so :)

Which Tom Hanks movie? Captain Phillips or Mr. Banks? I loved Captain Phillips but haven't seen Mr. Banks yet.

I cannot wait to join you guys!!! 2 weeks :) my family took me out for my birthday tonight and I know that is the last meal I will finish the last drop of!

A large Wendy's chili is 4 meals for me - how's that for cheap?!?!?!

little behind on updating my profile, by about 60 pounds or so :)

hmmmmm

27 lb weight loss - thats great - what more could you ask for???

maybe having a 98 lb weight loss :)

good for you

holding the door for you to enter the century club

always room for one more smiling face :)

yep keep those profiles and tickers coming/updated

hint hint to others ;)

seeing the movie Mr. Banks with Tom Hanks et al

my 83 year old mom has told "us" no more sad movies

sometimes hard to find a good comedy (not a stupid crazy one)

this looks good - not total comedy, which works for me - "little" more serious side too???

keep up your ggggggrrrrrrrrrreat job :) (i know you will :) )

good luck

kathy

congrats :)
