Default Happy Klaq Day

GOOD MORNING CAMPERS!
TY for another change of chart! AND WISH I was with you ast night!!! I love him and have ancient albums of his. and YESSS I k now how much I have blasted through ..ON VLC AND VLC beyond hard core but eating what I what when I want and just being sane. NOW.. Do tell what that coke with Splenda IS !!! I would get it . It is not carbonation that is bad but the additives. Carbonated water is on the plan .... adding the proein drink sounds nice so happy dance for your discovery

..(Barb) do not frett you can soon take care and relax and just wait for the after survey review and do whatever stupidity they want as correctives.As long as you have no big tags no big deal.. that is, if this works the same as the Joint Accreditation surveys went.(JACHO). are they still even around? I am so far out of this now
When I was an administer my focus was 12 months on that reivew so we had no last minute panics. Weigh in whenever.What goes up does come down!

this emogee is so right for you! Hope the day is going well. I want you to remember these fantastic days forever my friend. there will come a day and I do know you know that, things will slow a lot.. just 'knowing' that is not enough.. it is expecting this that will help you mentally. I am not being negative but I do try to help everyone on the team to learn what is going to happen.. I am the reality check.. NEVER want to see anyone here go down in the dumps..we will not let lanyone do that.AND you are the pretty sky balloon ( HOT AIR was not right ..) so, you are this rainbow cloud foating high and giving everyone a smile and good feeling at your enthusiasm and support! Gald you are here

master gardiner.. how does your garden grow Are you moving anything indoors to grow inside? HAVE you tired the marshmelloe dip from WF??? WOW it is good! I did put some in my frozen berries and topped the hot cohoc drink with it. Now if I get a feeling of not happy with anything, a dab of that does it!

SO.. what AM I eating ??? WF hot choc drink is like a diuretic for me and so satisfying. That I have thoughout the day. coffe or tea.I have bacon since it was on sale .. BOGO 22 oz package so I saved $10.00 and that is good! Now I have that. I cannot even LOOK
at chicken of any type.I do have tuna etc but I am happy frying up 3 eggs over easy and having just that with the hot drink. I DO have some seeds but less than one protion and less than i ever had before. My frozen berries are ending so I have to cut way back on those.They will end sooner than I would like. AND THAT is whay I have been haviong.. oh.. last night I had a THRIVE ice cream w/ choc syrup and a sf ice pop. Someimes ya gotta have what you want as long as the calsories, carbs and such are ok. Obviously I am not on induction and said I would not do that again. I am following the philosophies and pricipals fo my plan is all. This weight loss is crazy and I hope it lasts until I get back to close where I was. I have my 4/6 jeans and sz sm tops waiting for me!
Going to clelbrate the improved eyesight today and using cheap wallyworld bought magnifying reading glasses. I can see th keyboard but do have to lean closer to the screen and that is fine. I cannoot impress upon anypne how bad the vision was for a week. For the past few days I was so really blinded wioth the 'good'eye done.. could not see a thing...like looking through wax paper.SO I am so thrilled to be able to see. I will be wearing glasses now and that is fine.
It is gorgeous outside and I cannot wait for the next few weeks to apss until I can get back to doing my activitites... today is TGIF and will be spent putting away all the laundry I did ysterday, mopping the floors from the muddy and sandy places left by 6 dogs on the wood floors! The Originals is here season one disc 2 I tink so that is on my schedule too!!! tomorrow will be FOOTBALL ROLL TIDE!
Have a great day and will be back later..

NOW.... let's get out of that ATABLE MOBILE MOBILE.. USE the row baot around the pond and climb some stairs to that water flume ride! MS WHOOSHIE wants to keep her job and not give in to her eveil twin MUSHIE so we have to help her!

BBL

The evil twin Mushy has hexed me and I am up 2.2 lbs today. I am very sad and do not feel like a happy hot air balloon. And my feet are puffy and the bleeding is still there. It HAS seemed to slow, not as horrific as before, but still flowing out. I am a bloated mess now and I know the hormones are at work. I will complain no further on the subject.

CRICKY - You always make me happy. We have been working on pulling out and mowing down all the flowers and junk - trying to prepare for the frost which will come tonight. I must get out and pull all the Caladium bulbs today as they can die in the frost. I must put them inside to dry before I store them for the winter. The Dahlias must stay in the frost to kill them back first, so I figure this weekend will do it, then I must dig those bulbs out and pack them for winter storage, too. I don't bring anything in as my cats will eat them, but I do have my little pot of rosemary sitting in the kitchen window. They don't seem to bother that one. -------- Congrats on your good eye and another good drop for you!!!!

BARB - so great to hear from you again! I hope things lighten up a bit so you can get back on with us!

TAM - I love your side by side and you can really see the difference 50 lbs has made! Post more pics!!!! I LOVE seeing how we are all doing! I never did take a monthly pic at the beginning of the month this time and I guess I should. I need to keep track of this stuff for all posterity. It keeps me motivated.

CHRISSIE - I know Coke should have a Splenda version, but I can never find it around here. I do use Diet Rite, which is Splenda. It is expensive, though, and never goes on sale. IT would be great to have an alternative!

I must get back to work now. I really hope I can whoosh soon. You all have a good day!

I forgot to tell you all - I saw Species 2.0 again the other day! He is bigger than he was before (although still very tiny!), but no longer micro-sized! He was swimming up & down in front of the thank and Pablo swam up, but did not eat him. So I am very grateful I have a surviving baby Ghost Shrimp yet!!!!

CRICKY - I have not tried the WF Marshmallow. I wouldn't know what to do with it! But it's good to know it is not icky. Maybe someday I may try it.

I DID buy the WF Cranberry Sauce, though! It is very gelatin-like and wiggly, like jelly, but it tastes like cranberry sauce and it will be a welcome addition to these holiday dinners!!!!!

Hi Y'all,

Had a blip up today, .2, very strange since I didn't feel well last night and this morning, so didn't eat near what I usually eat. Oh well, not worried, what goes up, must come down. Just will work the plan and the plan will work. I'm feeling better now, just really sleepy, up and down all night.

Himi: Any weight down, whether artificially, naturally, cosmically...or whatever counts...that's just the rules. Congrats and I hope the play was great! Too funny on Cricket's nickname being Golden Eye.

Cricket: Sooo happy your eyes are improving! I need to get mine checked because I totally read your "love the B&A avatar" as "bad ass avatar", then realized it was Before and After. Thank you and I will take either one. You are doing so great this week!! Killing it!!
I know my time will come that things slow down...they always do, however this time I'm in it, to win it...and that means even if I'm stalling for months, I will eat OP. For my health, there is no other option.

Chrissie: Thank you for the compliments of the side by sides. Sometimes it is hard to believe myself. And yes, the world is at peace, and the UN can now relax I used the tiny pics for my avatar, but used this free re-sizer for the gallery pics http://picresize.com/results

Paulette: Thank you for the compliments on my pics. I think I will do them every 25 down. When I meet my goal I will have lost 150 lbs. That is sooo much, but with having mini goals and milestones every 10 and 25 lbs, it doesn't make it so overwhelming.
I am so sorry you are up again...I know things will straighten out once your hormones are under control. It did with me.
I'm glad Species 2.0 is alive and well. Never had much to do with an aquarium, though I love them.
And BTW complain away...if you need to. We've got your back, front, side and whatever else you need.

Barb: NO problem...you have been through a lot, and have been very busy...I know you will be back posting and supporting.

That's all I have for now, maybe BBL, might go to bed early, since sleep was almost non-existent last night. Hope you all have a great evening, peaceful night, and lose big in the morning.

~~~ oh poopadoodles Pollieque on Ms MUSHIE! On the bright side, yest there is a side... you have not wavered from you plan. THAt is big huge plus and something you have not done in ages gone bye..so are worthy here! Darlin, I t hink I would be jumping on a table doing a home version of a hyterectomy! ! Is that not an option??? OK do not answer this as I am sure this had been discussed by now by the ob/gyn..AND you have got to know we do not gain weight.We gain water not pounds of fat. The fat IS gone foever And yourheath is here to stay ..NOW.. about all that garden flower thing work.. I think I will plant plastic flowers this year as my Florida neighbor did on her walkway..and they looked REAL!..I you ability and hard work ...NOW.. for Species 2.0 again.. the little stinker was growing and waiting to be big enough! WIll you get it a friend for company..one that it will not eat or be eaten by??
TY for the weight congrats!

TAM.. we are posting together but I saw that when I went back to lookesee at PollyQue's post.. so...a blip is not a thing but us adjusting and you are in it to win it for real.. for life.That is what we need to accept.. this is for not a DIET! I have faith that you will get there ..we all work at staying there! It is a rollercoaster and as long as we get back and stay focused it works out
I do not have the abilities to get regular pics of me so when I have a visitor they are kind enough to do it and send to me so I can post them. So far, they are from my kids, KATHY, DONNA and BRENDA!

AND POLLY.. you do not complain.. I happen to hold that crown! Go vent away.It is good for the sole and lets us know you are HUMAN!

I took a break from the Originals and going back..
OH use that marshmellow in your coffee or wheever youwant sweet.. it does taste like that marshmello cream stuff. When the winter gets here I will be having that like hot cocoa!!! ALSO.. will get straberries frozen and use some in that for a dessert.. I will look for the cranberry sauce but have not seen it yet.. maybe they will add it for the holidays I hope.
Now back to the movies

I guess I do sometimes underplay weight losses-- but its because I really do not expect things to be continually linear-- so if I am not super-excited about losses, I wont be super upset about gains and bounces.... like today for example! I totally expected it though, between the late weigh-in and the late-night pepperoni snack at the theatre that I smuggled in ring was TIGHT this AM-- loose now, so hopefully tomorrow i am back at it.

Tam I like your new bad-ass avatar! I think Before and after and bad-ass BOTH apply!

Sorry about Mushie Paulette, and the rest of the yuckiness.... I hope it all starts to recede into the distance for you very very soon!

Cricket awesome losses! And Im so glad its not like looking through waxed paper for you any more! I have to confess I have a bunch of dollar store reading magnifiers scattered throughout my house-- My vision is fine about 1 1/2 to 2 feet away or further, but as I am getting older, the close up stuff is getting fuzzier....

Glad you are back Barb, and getting back into the swing of it-- look forward to hearing from you again

Interesting development-- I have a HUGE bruise on the outside of my thigh-- and I have NO idea what I did to get it! its as long as my hand and at its widest almost as wide-- and I have big hands!-- not sure if I got it while handling the baby filly, or doing bunny chores, or if i ran into something and totally didnt notice/forgot-- but its a doozie.

HIMI.......sorry you are up
sneaking pepperoni into the theater i'm sure people smelled it
i have "cheater" walmart readers all over my house too; yet i can never find a pair when i need them
that sounds like a big bruise! does it hurt

the diet coke was in 12-pks at the a&p (soon to be acme as a&p has gone under). they are on sale 3 12-pks/$11.
haven't tried it yet......will let you know.
the can has a yellow stripe-ribbon-thingy across it, and the box says "made with splenda"
maybe you could google which stores carry diet coke with splenda
another good soda if you have it in your area is called "waist watchers" also made with sucralose. the black cherry is very good

good night a-team

HIMI... I hate it when I get those mystery bruises! With me it is all the time.I bruise easily and even the stupid poodles ( only Bear) jumps on my lap I get a paw bruise! Maybe you are getting bruises now because you have lost a layer of FAT

CHRISSIE.. the every ready bunny with funny stuff! UR TOO KOOL!

I will change the chart now since I am up and it is time... will ook forward to tomorrow.. OH.. MY hundreds of those Wallyworld specials are all ending up in my car! I always grab a pair to go out with.. I even get the 4 in one packs!

Spoke to my pal who works in the Vision center at Wallyworl.. been doing that gob for 25 yrs up north and here for WM.. well... she suggested I get the older bifocals not the transision lenses since they are harder to adjust too..and I am a PIA.. I expect to see out the edges and not have to turn my head to fucus..I used to wear the lined bifocals years ago so do not care. I will get them in reading and distance strength and a RX for computer distance as well. I think those will do well. THe bifocal $$ so let the insurance cover the 80% of that and then I'll head to WM for the cheaper one for just the computer.. don't get excited... it won't help me type better! LMAO!

Have a great night..oh.. did get the fgloors mopped and that was it.. on to Hiwaii 5-O and Boue Bloods I do miss seeing Tom Selleck in his haydays jogging down the country road where I lived in NY! cutest buns around.. he aged ok.. funny that Stacy's hubby is a replica of that SELLECK!

Have a great nite all...
