CHRISSIE>>> HAVE A GREAT TIME at the ballet with your Sis! Somethings are SOOO much more important that weighing in LOL..ENJOY!

POLLIE.. enjoy the venison!!! I love guacamoli and have no clue how to make it! Itis after 2:30 and so far it has been HC and wf hot choc drink. Not hungry but when I am I plan on eggs in an omlette..some scallions and shredded cheese for flavor.. maybe.. will porbably just have a fried egg LOL! I am soo lazy!
Well, I soent quite a bit of time in the feed and tack room! Jodi brought over the large shleving unit I got from her. Perfect for so many PIA items.It is deep and not wide and ceiling height. Moved the feed trash cans against one wall under some of my bridles and reins area.. only 4 cans and left the other 2 in place, moved the wheat bran and beet pulp conatiners and now it is nie and open.. ALSO emptied out the steamer trunks and have the tiems from there on shelves and the new shelving. So nice to have everything out in the open and not have to look through trunks and havev to put away horsey clothes not in the right season! Bad enough when we do that for our own seasonal clothes

SEE ya later

Guacamole is too easy and there are a thousand recipes. Many add cilantro, tomatoes and peppers. But when I make mine I just mash the avocado, add a couple Tbs of sour cream, squeeze some lemon or lime juice in it, and season with garlic powder and onion powder. Sometimes I add a bit of Cumin. That is it. Add salt if you want.

I used it as a dip with a few slices of swiss cheese this afternoon, but I have been known to eat it with a spoon!!!

Have a good night at work KATHY!


P.S. - I am going to my Mom's tomorrow morning, and she has a scale now, so I will weigh in on Sunday as is the norm.

P.P.S. - My physical today was great. I am as healthy as a horse.

I'm hoping my internet is back to normal now. You don't realize how much you depend on it until it's gone! Bob needs it for his work computer so we were both frustrated. My son stopped in and tried to see what was wrong with it. At first he thought the modem was bad, but everything seems to be working okay now.

Himi: Looks like you had a nice loss today. I'm sure the baby bunnies are cute!

Paulette: Glad to hear you had a great check-up and you had a nice loss today. I'm not a big fan of guacamole. I lived a pretty sheltered life in rural PA and never ate Mexican food as a child. When we went to CA on our honeymoon, my husband thought he was giving me a treat by taking me to an expensive Mexican restaurant. I had no clue what I was even ordering, but it came with some type of "green stuff" all over the top of it and it was horrible. I couldn't eat my expensive meal and have never touched it since.

Kathy: Your work and sleep patterns have to be tough. I'm sure it makes it more difficult to lose weight when you don't have a regular schedule.

Cricket: Glad to hear you got your glasses and are seeing clearly now, even if you have to move the computer a little closer. When I wore my contacts, I only wore one...for distance and I used the non-corrected eye for close work. However, there was that area in between like my computer screen or looking over someone's shoulder, that I had a hard time seeing.

Sounds like you are still busy cleaning. It feels so much better when things are in order and you can find them easily. I am definitely not feeling that way at home or at work as I have so much paperwork piled up. I bring home reading material from work but never seems to have the time or desire to get into it after working for 10+ hours a day.

Chrissie: Great loss today!! Enjoy the evening at the ballet. I love those Christmas programs!

Tam: Glad to hear you are feeling better, but sorry that you are dealing with so much. With not feeling good and the stress of everything, you're lucky you didn't have a gain. I hope you are able to get things resolved soon.

Hi Everyone,

Well, I had a lil whooshie of a pound... or maybe just a whoo I have never really seen what defines a whooshie. I agree with Paulette, we all seem to be sick, tired, or hurting, and probably sick and tired of hurting. Hubby and I are both completely better. We are going to try and tackle our shed tomorrow, that hasn't been touched since we moved here in August of 2014. Not looking forward to it...but it is a need. Man-child has been working on his room and packing...it sounds like he is deconstructing it with all the pounding and banging going on. smh Stayed on the phone most of the day, arguing with Verizon for us, Time Warner Cable for my mil, and Santee Cooper (the electric co) for us again. After doing customer service over the phone for over 30 years, I tend to grade anyone I speak to...I have to say that TWC rep was absolutely wonderful she had the problem taken care of in less than 5 minutes. After being on the phone with Verizon and the Electric Co for so long...I was in battle position for them too, but she was good.

Kathy: So sorry you are worn out, but happy you are down.

Paulette: So happy you are showing a downward motion, and so glad everything went well with your physical. Thank you for your kind words.

Chrissie: Glad you are down, and yesterday wasn't a very good day for any of us...hopefully today and tomorrow will be better. Hope you had fun this evening. Thank you.

Cricket: Yay! for going down...and yes I believe that family that hurts family...especially the very young or the elderly...deserve a special place in Hell! My Aunt has done so much for all of us, and that makes it hurt her even more, that the granddaughter, who she practically raised, could do this to her. At least her son is an alcoholic and has a little bit of an excuse to act so crazy. You are right about Bo...he may be right back here. I don't hold much faith in his dad changing his ways.

Himi: Yay! on new baby bunnies, how sweet!

Barb: Glad to see you posting again and with a loss. Great going!

I am down 1.6 lbs today. It is good and I hope I can get rid of a bit more by tomorrow! Still being up by 4 lbs is depressing, even if it is water. My feet are still puffy, so I have plenty more water sitting in my legs.

I don't know if the dandelion tea is working or not. I was really hoping it would cause the floodgates to burst. But even if it only causes a trickle, I am fine with that. Who knows - maybe it was the avocado that triggered this little loss? A combination of the 2?

CRICKET - Our store only sells Haas Avocados - they are smallish. The ones they had on sale were nice and black and ripe, so the pulp was easy to scoop out. I was considering growing the seed, but my Rosemary plant is taking up the only available window space in the kitchen. Maybe I will try to sprout one closer to springtime, then I can set it outside to grow!

HIMI - Baby Bunnies!!!! How cute!!!!! When I was a kid our neighbor always had pet bunnies which would occasionally have babies. My favorite was her giant black & white bunny, named Otto. They let them run around the yard as we were all sitting around for cookouts and stuff. They were fun and friendly and never ran out of the yard! Like having a bunch of little dogs. Unfortunately, they ALL died after my neighbor fed them AVOCADO skins! Of all things. Who would have thought avocado skins would be poisonous to rabbits? She did not know. It was a terrible accidental tragedy. I also had a friend once who kept an urban house rabbit! It had a litter box. His dog got along very well with it. Rabbits are very nice pets. But I realize they are also food animals, so I feel bad for them. But then, I feel bad for ALL animals who are forced to sacrifice their little lives so that we may survive. God bless all the wonderful innocent creatures of this world.

TAM - Congrats on your WHOO! I like that. I consider anything over a .6 loss to be a whoosh! I have seen BIG whooshes of over 3 lbs, but that is not common. I swear I can gain 2-3 lbs of water overnight, but it never seems to leave the body as fast as it comes on. What is up with that I will never understand. So congrats to you and hope you see it again tomorrow!

BARB - So glad your internet is working for you again. Like your husband, I am also dependent upon it for my work. If mine ever went down I would freak out. Congrats on another loss!

CHRISSIE - I hope you and your sis had a great time at the ballet. I love ballet and opera. I have only seen 2 operas and no ballets. Some day I hope to have the opportunity to see one.

I have to start getting stuff together to bring to Mom's now. I always have SO MUCH. All my food. Books for Mom. Clothes/toiletries. All my meds and vitamins. My laptop. Sheesh! So I hope to be able to stop back in later today and see how we have all fared. Have a nice weekend all!

Taking a short break with the shed and then I have to pack for my trip tomorrow. Well my Whoo, turned into a Whoopsie, ate late, and got up much earlier than usual, so showing up .8. No biggie. I don't know if I can get on later today, or tomorrow. If not I will be on tomorrow night. My Aunt has wifi and I'm taking my scale with me. Hope everyone has a great LC day and nice whooshies!

HELLO sweet and enduring TEAM MATES. Have to look a the big picture here... holidays are here and we have survived Thanksgiving! For all but Jodi and myself, You have to yet navigate through Christmas dinner and all that goes with those festive times. Here, I bill bake my rum cakes, fruit cakes and rum fruit cakes LOL.. Carl's friends have already sent MRS HANA HANUCKKAH thier Christmas bakery wishes LOL!! I give Mrs KLAUS the holiday off from having to do for our pals

So, all in not we did pretty well I think. OF course we have Hormone Hollie POLLIE that has gone throughthe rings of fire for ages and is still a mentor with the plan. From peep to full Blown Chick!!! I an looking forward to seeing PAULETTE return to her stable and losing state. It iwll be not in a few days or weeks after surgery though. Medications and internal swelling will be going on, but in time as Paulett heals it will level out and success will happen.
Kathy... gota get off your self induced trampoline my wndeful friend.
BARB.. hope Bob has joined y ou on the LC and all is doing better. You two have had too much stress.
TAM~~ Family challenges suck.Period. You are going to be one fo the people that come through life on top of the heap and buried by by it. Just as PAULETTIE is. I see that the rest of this team has it all together and hangs in and oding more than just treading. You are proving yoursleves to be resilient and agile hopping on and off occassionally and making so much better choices than ever before! I love to see my flowers bloom
Jodi is spot on and eating clean and will continue to do so.. Oh she may have a breakfast out with her peers for the hoilday but that will be it.
As for myslef..well, I am getting tired of this trampoline and knnes are tieing out from this. I am again up. Ring IS TIGHT so it is water and do not know why. I have been without plumbing for 27 years! No hormones at work. Not eating high sodium foods as I once did. Where i used to have 2 serving at least of sunflower seeds, I now have maybe 12 seeds total and that is a few times aweek. Where I used to have 4 egg omlettes with mushrooms, green onions and shredded cheese, I now have one fried egg in olive oil. where I had large servings of bacon daily, I now have 1-2 strips once in a while. I used to drink huge amounts of water and now I do not and that I beleive is a large factor in the water retenion I have. I am drinking as much as I can without feeling sick. So what will I do? I will do the New YEar's restart deal and think about what I have to do to get things rolling here. Going to read aain Atkins' options for this occurance and th ink and ponder and think some more. I actually gave thought to going off this plan and looking into McGraws' 20/20 diet. then realy thought about that.And thought some more. the fact is, THIS 1992 plan IS the only one that I can live on and not have to think about at this point. Do I wish to begin another plan and count and weigh and buy special foods.. 20 foods for 20 days?? Not too keen on that. We all know I am too lazy to cook, I do not go to town to shop but rarely ( seem to go 3 times a week to the various physicians and therapy appointments each week) and I am not motivated enough. THis is the lazy person diet plan. After decades of this life I cannot think that I would be successful on a nother plan. YET, I NEED to do something different. NC??? UGH.. The only thing I did for that was lots of mixed bag salads and a lot of pumpkin heated with seasoning to taste like a carrot/yam thing.Pretty good but not happy about the thought of switching.Most everything disagrees with me now. Had one regualr size cup of coffe and I am nauseaus.
Made Jodi's bacon and just put it away in the fridge without packing it up.. just the smell made me sick.This is not like me at all. No blockages so not worried TG!
So my pals, We WHOOSH with help from MS WHHISE and retain with MS MUSHIE.. and we hang tight and remain on plan.
Am wathicng TERMINATOR~GENISYS... not bad and I do not care for terminator series or ARNOLD that CHEATING SOB!

Carl is busy with the rabit hutch, and told him to fiure out how to add dividers later on. HIMI>>>> I AM GETTING INT BUNNYWABBITS CARL just crought in a magazine he friend loaned him about breeding show and mat bunnies... NOT EATING THEM!!! HE has all kinds of fowl and Hares for food. Has a huge garden and farm stock. Works with Carl. Was a Ranger in the military and a young guy.. great fellow.. too bad Jodi had no interest!!! LOL!! He is too shy! I will give away the bunnies as we get crowded. This mag. tells all about esting boxes etc.. gotta telll ya that when I had rabbits, they were not partiular about when or how to breed and did a great job with the babies. DUMB luck I guess. This time i will follow advice. Maybe do the show rabbits?? Sounds like i could get into that sort of thing. Less work that a show horse !
and speaking of... Cookie is nice and thick fured like plush velvet.Her color is what I WISH it would remain.. black/brown.Unless she is next to Beckham who is a true black, she looks black too.
BBL friends..enjoy the day.. adn DITTO TO WHAT YOU ALL HAVE ALREADY SAID!

finally got a chance to get on the computer!
got home from my sisters & went right to work on finishing the Christmas decorations......house looks nice if i do say so myself
we had a great time! my sister had actually won 4 tix.....since we only needed 2, she gave the other 2 to a couple of college girls waiting on line to buy tix.....they were VERY happy & appreciative
the ballet was good......it's very interpretive though, so if you didn't know the story "a Christmas carol", you'd have no idea what was going on.
deb & i laughed a LOT, which i really needed

CRICKET......what is "MIM"?
i know you have no appetite, but maybe the problem is you're not eating enough .....just a thought

PAULETTE.......i'm glad you're fit as a fiddle
hope you had/are having fun at your mom's!
congrats on the -1.6 today
my sister had a bunny a long time ago that used the little box & was just like a dog playing with the kids & other animals

HIMI.....congrats on the -0.7
oooohhh.......i LOVE baby bunnies! so cute

BARB......lost a little blip!

TAM......lost a pound yesterday, gained 0.8 today, so you're pretty much chillin' in mable
what is "smh"? something something husband?

KATHY.......you blew me away when you raced on by!!
