the golden eye situation seems to be an ongoing pain in the golden a** for you

PAULETTE....i'm glad to hear you got your gardening done

Hi Y'all

I guess I spaced yesterday. I really thought I had posted. I have felt bad off and on since Thurs. evening. Not even really sure what was going on, but finally today feel good. I was the same weight yesterday as Friday, and today I'm up .6...really don't get it, but I'm staying OP, so it will all work out.
Speaking of work outs, today I exercised for the first time in a month. I did a mixture of cardio, weights, and stomach crunches...OH MY DEAR LORD...I am soooo sore! But, I did have a terrific NSV. When I first started at Planet Fitness, I had a rather embarrassing moment. I went to do the stomach crunching machines...and wouldn't fit. I haven't tried it since, until today...fit perfectly!! So happy about it, even if my stomach muscles aren't.
However, the best thing about working out at Planet Fitness is the Hydro Massage bed and the massage chairs after the workout....Heaven!!

Cricket: I'm here, I'm here, just a space cadet. You have been killing it this week!! Even with your gain, congratulations! I hope you figure out how to take some pics and post, or don't have to wait too long for a friend. Like Paulette, I love pics! I am such a visual person. I'm a lil jelly about your sightings of Tom Selleck's buns. That tall man is fine, fine, fine...then, and now. Love Blue Bloods and Hawaii 5-0! WTG on the hubby's giving you an NSV. (that almost sounds a lil dirty. )


Himi: I used to get bruises a lot, when I was taking a lot of advil for pain. Once I cut down on that I did better. Hope yours clears up. Sorry you are bit up...you will be right back down again I'm sure. Too funny sneaking pepperoni into the movie theater. And I like my B&A or badass avatar, I will take either. Sorry about your friend, I hope things get better soon.

Chrissie: I may be in the minority...but I don't like any coke products. I always thought they tasted flat and too sweet, even diet coke. I'm a Pepsi girl, or used to be before I figured out it stalled/bloated me. Glad you found something you like, and I hope others can as well. Hope you had a great day with your Sis. And a HUGE congrats on the 50 down, cool that you and I met that huge milestone on the same week. SO happy for you. Sorry about the mabel mobile.

Barb: Thank you Barb, for the congrats. So glad to see you posting. And happy for hubs new job, so you can start concentrating more on your health. Yay! for the downward trend. Hope your grandbabies can teach you soon...as I said to Cricket. Love me some pics.

Paulette: Dang! I am so sorry you are up again. My Dr. tried to put me on hormones but I refused, had two really good friends, get screwed up bad on them. Scared me. I really hope they help you though. I had to laugh at your typo though " I am so cornfused"...corn is not allowed on LC.

Kathy: I'm praying for you. I hope you return soon and your troubles have lessened.

Finally caught up...I will still show a loss this week, but not much. Lowest weight loss I've had since starting. Next week will be better. Hope everyone has a great evening and shows losses to start the new game.

Maybe my little blip up is dissolving? I hope so!

Paulette, since Detroit managed to win today I feel like I can root with you--- go Green Bay! My parents are both from WI and while dad can take or leave sports, my mom is huge Packers fan-- she timed her chores today to get done in time to come inside for the game-- she is tuning in to the game right now-- as am I--they are looking good so far!

Barb, good to hear about Bobs new job! I remember when you emntioned before that he had some options he was considering.

Chrissie, you have me lol'ing with "Bobsnewjob" 3x fast and "golden a**" comments.....

Cricket have you tried the Walden Farms peanut butter spread? I seem to remember trying it and finding it shockingly disgusting-- some years back though so I cant remember for sure if that was the brand-- but whatever it was, it was SO BAD that I returned it to the store and told them that for the price I expected something tasty-- that not only didnt it taste remotely like peanut butter, it was completely inedible....

Thanks all for the thoughts for my friend-- she is in a confusing and complex situation and fragile state of mind and can use all the prayers she can get a mention in.

Jodi up a notch.. her scale only goes by half pounds. I suggestedted she go veggies and salads and lower proteins.That will up her fats in ratio as well. She likes her salads so it will work for her.. just a couple of days a week when she is working will kick her back in the game.

Edge of seat GAME GO PACKERS! I was so surprised (dismayed)at the way the Chargers woke up..
CHRISSIE SUNSHINE THE FUNNY GIRL Gee, thanks toots.. here's the salt shaker to rub into the wound.. OK.. so I AM old enought to be your parent!! My oldest is 49!..And I guess these Peepers should be called GOLDEN eyes.. they cost a lot of gold! Going to the optomotrist's office to have a chat with his office manager who can't decide WTF to charge me! AND to WALLYWORLD to see about my medicare card being current etc.. I have it so maybe I can get one pair with my private ins. and another via medicare coverage. Hope so .

HIMIKINS>>> I posted that that peanut butter spread was PUKEABLE>> UGH and I did not think about returning it. Don't see why the store should be responsible..They would take it back but I am not sure. So far that is the worse stuff. The pasta sauce looks pretty yucky but will try it tonight on some melted mozerella cheese. Going to show a gain from that!
Good to have your friendship.We all go through fragile times to some extent and even knowing there is someone to talk to, trust or just cares means the world of difference in these lives.

Little A-TEAM Hot TAMalee doing so well and now the fluxes.. do not recall if you said you had read the articles I post for the team. They are very helpful. I will be happy to repost them for us again. ALL that exercising is holding water .You are losing fat even if the scale's numbers do not say so. And of course we get these times where stalls and gains will happen.Our bodies are just screwing with our heads to see if we REEEAAAALLLLY are going to stick with it. It is a lot of hard work for the metabolsim to do a ketogenic metobolic process.

Going to watch the rest of this too close game and have a bite for dinner..later folks
