Hey hey, good morning all! Good idea Melissa, I will do that. Follow along closely ;o) Heya Tappy! Ok, I have been a really good girl. I had maybe two slip ups this past weekend. For the most part Monday through Friday were a big success. But that only puts me back the same weight I was before I totally blew it the week before! Grrr.... So right now I'm sucking down a Generic Slim*Fast Optima (equate from Wally World) and I have to admit. It's pretty danged good! I've been doing this shake thing for so long I'm actually liking the generics now. I'm so sad... LOL!! So today I have on tap one Protein shake which I've already consumed early this morning, the shake I'm having now and one for lunch. I have a few V8 fusion lites (to help with the veggie/fruit servings) to along with my day too. When I get home I'm going to have a Lean Cuisine for dinner. Only because I have to eat quick. I have to go to class tonight, but only tonight. It's to sign up for an online Excel class (8 week course). I'm sure that will take up alot of my time in the evenings so I won't have so much time to eat, eat & eat! I should breeze through anyway because I believe I'm beyond the Excel Beginner level. I'm definitely an intermediate. It's necessary though! Later if I'm still hungry I can either have a small bowl of Cereal, some FF yogurt or perhaps a SF hot cocoa (which helps to nod off). I'm being a good good girl! Yes, my husband is a good guy. He just wants me to be happy. Can't fault him for that. He says just be patient and don't think about it so darned much! In time the weight will drop. So far so good! :frown: PS Happy Monday everyone!

Hey now hey now... the winner has arrived. :frown:

I don't have time for Facebook or MySpace. Every time I get on there I have about 100 more requests than the last time I logged in. Don't get me wrong though, its nice. :lol: PJTP: I bought 6 air fresheners for the ladies bathroom and placed them nicely in each stall. Sorry, but there have been some more than necessary offensive odors in there lately. Some nice people took them all out and placed them on the mirrors. Whatever. I'll just keep putting them back.

OMG are you serious? Drop Dead Gorgeous is in my collective Hall of Fame! ;o) I found it in the bargain bin at Wally World. One of my life's better moments! I seen Changeling last night. Wow, awesome movie. 5 Stars from me. Not what I expected at all... so sad...

If that's true then I apologize. It would be a good idea to identify him however, by making him a Moderator or something to that effect.

Haha!! :thumbup::tt2: Exactly because I just had no words... it was that awesome. and the throat grab, work of art. ;o)

So yesterday was a major success! Did my walk and still finished it off with my stationery bike. Today I plan to do my Calisthenics and tack on some weights. I know I'll do it! and yes Happy Spring Everyone. Been missin the sunshine for sure.

tap, thanks! You're a darling yourself! :tongue_smilie: However the winner you are not. NCs don't sell yourself short girl. But... winner? Nope.

*Silence* Ahhh... Though I agree, a waterfall would be a plus.

Oh my goodness! Is that like some Online spinoff of Dungeons & Dragons? That's a Cult! LOL!! :tongue_smilie::thumbup::tt2: s-n-t: Do NOT listen to that guy. The probability of him being ligit is about 0 in 0. SNT: You have my prayers. I hope your friend is okay.

Don't tell her I got it. ;o)

:tongue_smilie::thumbup: Maybe I need some Visine because I don't think I'm seeing that right!!

SP-Studio This is fun!

What is WOW?

want, the whole my own worst enemy couldn't be more true. I struggle so much with that. I can also be my own best friend to, to myself. I had a good talk with my husband last night. I was almost in tears because I know for a fact I have it within myself to do what I need to. The conclusion to that was him telling me he loved me at my worst and will love me now. Him telling me I'm at my best too. He is so blown away by all my hard work and what I've done thus far. That's just it, he said he loves me - and he wants ME to love me too. He wants me to see all the beauty he sees, inside and out. Well, that of course won some brownie points - but most importantly it woke me up to something new. It made me realize that instead of putting my self down for all my mistakes, I should just let it go and move on. Start over again. If that means I have to start over one thousand times, then that is exactly what that means. I will get to my goal. I know in my heart I will, I just have to be patient with myself and learn from my mistakes as I go along. This is a lifetime of mistakes on my body and will likely take a lifetime to overcome them. Good thing for today: I did my walk. Again. I'm so good when it comes to my workouts. I know what my problem is and it's my poor eating habits. Always has been. Again, that isn't going to change overnight. My husband reminded me of some things he went through. He did not overcome them over night, but he did. He truly is my rock!

Hi Mel! You always do such a wonderful job, and it so shows! Believe it or not you motivate me so much. Thanks. xx I did my walk today... hooray! I'm staying on plan, double hooray!

Success is not paid for. Success is something that you gain only from hard work and dedication. Some people struggle more than others. I am one of them. It is totally and completely my fault. I own up to that here and everywhere. You see, the bonus of doing this here is support. I only mention that because some here were curious why people would say that here. This is a support website. If this was all about tooting your own horn, this site would be pretty darned boring, don't you think? Now, don't get me wrong, you have every right to state your case and "vent". There's plenty more where that came from here. Some vent about Cliques, some vent about rude people, some vent about things that really I honestly have no idea... but that is what makes this place so great! We can all hide behind a screen name and yell off the rooftops what we are really feeling, without having to do it to someone's face. Passive agressive at it's finest. In the future, if there is something so detrimental to your own personal happiness, may I suggest ignoring it or skipping it over? It works wonders for me. HTH ETA: This by far is not the first time this has been brought up here btw. Interesting topic? Sure, but done, many many many times.

<<<Successfull Sometimes

Nooo!! You can't say that name in here... unless you turn off the light and light some candles in the Bathroom. Then you say it three times in the mirror. :tt2:

Thankie Tap! I'm so glad I have the ability to just keep trying even though things go astray. Ya just gotta keep trying. I think it depresses me when I can't get out and walk. Really bad even. The sun and the fresh air... nothing like it in the world! So what I'm doing right now is doing the age old Slim*Fast diet. This has always worked for me in the past. ALWAYS! Except right now I have no Slim*Fast so instead I'm drinking my Myoplex until I can get some. I think it's helping to shrink my pouch, which I really need to do. Tightness has nothing to do with how much I'm eating. It takes awhile to get this wrapped around the brain. IDK. I just wish I could keep doing it long enough to get back to where I left off. Help me! Yeah, that's what I truly need, some help... ;o) I'll start up my diary again really soon. I need to learn no one else is going to do this for me but me. I'd like to inspire others too though. This is really, really difficult and it's nice to know others are being successful. :tt2:

Congrats Diablo! BTW: Now this puts you in the Newbie Banders group. ;o)

Oh thanks! Was wondering... ;o)

I'm not TG! I eat enough when I'm awake for goodness sake... anyway be careful with that. My friend does that and she told me over the weekend she woke up while eating brownies. She was choking on it.

PS, Salma Hayek too. ;o) Curvy is what I'm all about.
