Good Morning Ladies!!

CL try to just let yourself get a bit hungrier each time, just not to the straved point. In WW I think they say we should never feel hungry, not sure how to work that if you have very few points left in a day, maybe that is when you need to eat more of the veggie soup~~which I am hoping to make this week:)

I really am not one to be giving suggestions this week:( I finished helping my DD move yesterday, it turned out to be more stuff than we thought. I backed my van up as close to her stairs as possible, which left no room for others to go in or out of the garage area~~~then her and I ran like the wind up and down three flights of stairs getting this stuff moved:) WHEW!!! If I had not lost my weight and gone to CURVES I would not have been able to do it:) That's the good part the bad part is I ate fozen yogurt and 3 peices of pizza later in the day:( Justifiy it by saying look at the work out I got today:( I am bad:(

Today is the last day of my 3 day weekend~~I am doing nothing but grocery shopping today I am so tired from the moving~~~moving is for young folks.

Have a good week!!

Well, I'm not deserving of offering any suggestions either. Remember that 1.5 pounds that I lost? Well, guess what! It found me again.....better luck this week...

I have done that. I had a friends bring homemade hot out of oven brownies and how do you say no...really! :-) So I had two so the weight would be evenly distributed on my thighs! When I have run myself short on points I have the soup and a salad. I try not to use the activity list just so I wouldn't be tempted to go run around the block to have another brownie. My MIL is horrible! That's just kind of enough said in that brief little sentence! :-) When she found out that I had joined WW she brought homemade chocolate cookies to the house one night. I kindly explained that I was on WW and that I wasn't keeping goodies in the house like that. So the next day I wrapped them up and sent them with David to work to share with his crew. A couple of days later here come brownies I did the exact same thing. A few days after that a homemade cheesecake. I sent it home with another friend of mine right in front of her. Last Saturday night here she comes with a homemade German chocolate cake. I was so frustrated because I was struggling anyway and just tired of her being so insensitive. I threw the whole thing in the garbage right in front of her. I lost it! Needless to say she isn't speaking to me which is just fine with me. The only time the woman cooks is when I am trying to diet and she turns into Betty Crocker. Sorry for the rant...I am craving chocolate and it's been a rough day! :-)

Good afternoon! It's 91 F. and sunny here in SE Texas. Where did our "Spring" go??? Everybody has been so busy this week! I'm impressed with those of you who have stayed on your eating plan, worked out regularly, and are feeling positive about things. That's the kind of incentive and motivation I like! I attended our community center's Mother's Day luncheon today. We had a style show first, clothes from Palais Royal, then a lovely high tea/luncheon. Very much "lady foods", but it was all scrumptious! Today I sat with a table of people I've met briefly during this past year, so I had a chance to get to know them much better today. I was the "baby" at the table at 61, and the oldest one was 93. Most of the other 6 women were in their high 70's and 80's. These women are very active in the community and never seem to slow down. They are such an inspiration to me. Tonight I'm going to spend the evening with our friend Susanne helping her get things ready for our ESA state convention next week. I had promised her when Larry was so sick that I would go with her to this if he wasn't up to it, and I will. I'll be staying at night with my son and DDIL while in Dallas, and that will be the only time I'll get to see them while there, but it's better than nothing! Dee, I hope they don't dump too much extra work onto you. Time for another cruise, isn't it? LOL I'm going to see my granddaughters and son and DDIL tomorrow after cohosting a youth banjo concert at our church. Pray for me in the morning because I have to bake 5 dozen chocolate chip cookies!!!!! The doorbell just rang, and it was FedEx with a gift from oldest Dson and DDIL - 3 living, blooming African violets and a wooden collector's box. My DDIL really knows me well and Dson always trusts her taste. If I don't get a chance to post tomorrow or Sunday, I wish everyone here a Happy Mother's Day, whether you're a bio-mom, stepmom, or furbaby mom!

Hi all. I've been doing real well for the last two days. Went to the store and stocked up on a variety of foods. I am not one who can plan their meals ahead of time. I need to be able to eat what I want at each meal or I will feel unsatisfied. I have to be a bit selfish when I want to lose weight. I treat myself to the things I like. I went and bought some boneless centercut porkchops and pineapple so I could do teriyaki with them. I got some dark rye for the egg salad I've been craving. Bought a bunch of ground beef for freezing into weighed out patties for the freezer. I keep a few Lean Cuisine frozen meals and I like the new Pannini sandwiches. I will buy the regular ones as well as the Lean Cuisines because I find a half of one fills me up fine. For snacks I usually have regular ice cream that I eat in a 1/2 cup Tupperware snack cup. I like the Jello fat free Devils Food pudding cups. I also like the new Weight Watcher's Key Lime Cheesecake and I love the peanut butter chocolate or mint Skinny Cows. I fool myself into "healthy" desserts by using a frozen pancake as a base, topping it with sliced banana, cinnamon sugar and a squirt of whipped cream and calling it "pie". Do the same with a nuked sliced apple or canned blueberry topping. For take-alongs I carry little cups of natural applesauce, chewy low fat granola bars or breakfast bars, the above mentioned cheesecakes or pudding and fresh fruit. When I know I'll be out for awhile I pack a small insulated lunch bag with snacks and a diet soda so I won't be tempted by the drive-though or heaven forbid the donut shop. I have a challenge tonight, will be meeting some Red Hatters to eat at Dave and Busters. Looked at their menu and it's going to take some doing to stay on program. I see they have rice and they have steak and grilled shrimp. Maybe they will sub the grilled shrimp for the fried on the shrimp dinner. Or I could bring my insulated bag with gel ice, order the steak and shrimp and bring the steak home for a cold steak lunch tomorrow YUM. Tomorrow is my weigh-in and I'm shooting for a break even day what with eating out and hanging out in the bar to watch some friends in a karioke contest. They won a cruise last year and are shooting for a trip to Hawaii this year.

My story, I joined when I worked at my last job. I was able to do lunch visits. I loved my leader, and though I lost slowly, I did ok. It's a very do-able eating plan. Then May of 2004 I quit that job. I was home for 4 months, remodeling house, etc. and didn't really stick to it. Since I was no longer working at that job, it was hard to get to that meeting location. I have meetings near my home but I said to myself, "Self, you'll never like any other leader as much as this leader". (I know, excuses excuses). So I also thought I could do it all on my own. Well without accountability and journaling, and support from friends in the group, I gained. Very very slowly but over the course of the last 27 months, I guess I gained an average of 1 lb a month. (about the same rate as I lost it originally). Amazing how it sneaks up! Anyway I went back to work 2 years ago this week. Tried to find a WW nearby but this job rarely allows me to get away for lunch, so I knew I would never stick to it. So a couple of weeks ago, an old family friend chatted me online, and said she joined in June, and has lost 15 lbs so far. I asked if I could go with her to her evening meeting and she was happy to have a WW buddy!!! So I joined up last Thursday. I am following the flexpoints plan. I have been doing great with the eating, not really hitting a lot of the 35 extra, except for on Labor Day (used a few for 'liquid refreshments') :-) I'll know more tommorrow when I go for my first WI! Oh by the way, another mom at my DD's school joined right about the time I left and has lost all her weight. She looks great. Well when I got to the meeting she was also going to this meeting! So two good friends, who are a lot of fun to be around, are both in my Thursday meeting! Used to - I did Monday's because I felt it kept me accountable over the weekend. But I also think Thur is good - you get a good boost of willpower heading into the weekend. Anyhow! hoping I'll see you in the lifetime circle again soon!!!!

YAHOO!!!! I made my GOAL yesterday!!! Did ya know on maintence you get 4 extra points a day:) Now I have to hold it there for 6 long weeks~~~if when I go in this Friday I have gained, they take away 2 points:( She says now they try and help me see how many points a day I can handle.

Now for me the real work begins~~~maintaining!! I am at the point I have to buy new pants, my tops are fine since I like them a bit bigger. But, I did try on some 'right' sized pants yesterday and they do look way better, alot better in fact. I just do not want to buy alot~~~see I am afraid I will not be able to keep this off. That is negative and I need to stop that!! But, how????

Congratulations Lunchlady - that is TERRIFIC! YEA for you! Congratulations on your right sized pants! I think you do need at least one new top so you have a whole new outfit. You can do it - those of us who are still working on getting to goal are counting on you to be our role model! How's that for no pressure? :)

I'm cleaning out my extra room (which is really a huge storage closet) today so that I'm keeping busy and away from the kitchen this weekend. I think it's downright sinful how much "stuff" we all collect that we don't really need.

Unfortunately I moved a big box and found an area of mold underneath (that darling cat is no longer with us). So now I can add ripping the carpet out to my list of things to do. But I'll wait for my son to come home from his dad's so he can tackle that. He likes to do things that require brute strength, fortunately.

I'm happy to report I finally got in some exercise last evening with a friend and this morning solo (walking). I so enjoyed it and hope I will have the good sense to make it a habit.

Have a good weekend everyone, and congratulations again, Goalie!

CL I do think that housework is at times more work than exercise. Yesterday I started cleaning out my closet~~~I am getting rid of all of my work pants they look bad on me and they are about 8 or more years old, so I feel OK getting rid of them:)I will buy new ones when it starts getting cold again, that is if it ever does:)So that leaves me with several pairs of pants that now fit just right, a few maybe a bit baggy but I like them like that. I am so excited now I can wear most of my cute shirts:)

I was telling my DH that our WW's leader says it is better to get rid of your old clothes that do not fit, keeping them is like giving yourself permission to gain weight?? He does not believe that do you??? I do. So out they go~~~they are old anyway so I do not care!!!!!
