Good Luck Kelly!

I want to try to: 1) Exercise more 2) Make better food choices 3) Pay off some debt

Hi Trish and welcome! You really won't miss the cokes! The band is well worth anything that you have to give up.

Alex you look fantastic, and so happy. Thanks for sharing with us.

Staci - You are still wide open right now, and will not really notice a difference until your first or second fill.

Great picture, it's good to put a face with who we are talking with!

I got my Water in yesterday, now here we go for today! Drink your water everyone!

Wow Rica, you look fantastic! I bet your hubby is so proud of you! You have done a great job!

Nancy I am sure he will call you as soon as he can. My prayers are with you!

Glad you got to spend some time with your family. It sounds like you had a lovely time. Memories are so special, I'm glad you experienced some good ones.

Wow Michelle, look how close you are to the 180's! Way to go! :banana :banana

To tell you the truth Becky I was terrified of stepping on those scales this morning. Who knows, tomorrow it might show a gain of 3 pounds, but I'm not looking! lol I guess it was because instead of 5 pieces of fudge, I ate 2, and instead of 10 cookies I ate 1 or 2. I can't tell you how many times I walked over to them and started to take one though. The funny part of it is I am not a sweet eater usually, but it seems like Christmas gets the best of me and once I taste it I can't stop! Almost any other time of the year, I can pass it right up. I even pack cookies every day for my hubbies lunch and never taste one. I think it is your fault Becky, you are the one that got me going on the fudge kick!

Way to go Penni - At least someone here lost some weight. Now how did you manage to do that with all that southern cooking? lol Becky - You have inspired me so much with your weight loss, especially with all the problems. You also inspired me to make a pan of fudge and eat 2 pieces with all you talk of fudge making!

Thanks for updating us Laurie, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I usually don't have a problem with the water, but I need to get back on the program too. So, I'll do it along with y'all. Thanks Paula!

Hello Aubrey! Welcome to bandland. Glad to hear you are doing good. Read all the post, present and old ones and it will provide you with lots of information.

That is funny Greg, but it sums it up perfect! I ate way more than I should have, but I stayed the same, no gain, no loss. I will happily take that! I had my fudge, Cookies, and lots more, so I won't complain one little bit. I must say I am glad it is over! Now, if my hubby will just hurry up and eat the rest of that damn stuff!

Hey, it is snowing here right now! It's cold too, and it's going to get colder the next couple of days! But, then a nice warm up! Thank goodness!

I can't agree more, and 70 degrees is in the forcast for this week!

I find myself checking this board to see who has posted! lol Now, that is what I call addiction I just look so forward to visiting with y'all each day, I can't even stay away on a holiday!

Beautiful picture, I agree with Marie, you always take the neatest pictures. Your family is beautiful just like you are.

Darcy - My Mom always told us it was bad luck to take the tree down until after New Year's, so I always leave it up till the day after.

I just want to wish each of you a very "Merry Christmas" I wish a safe and happy holiday for y'all!

We are heading out to my Brother's for the evening. It's always fun to get together with the people you care about. I have been baking and making candy all day, I also made some baked Beans and a big fruit salad. Have a great evening everyone!
