Wow, holidays and all the food accompanying it SUCK! I know I have gained some and since it is tom I am not weighing right now. I am a firm believer in "you can't fix what you won't acknowledge" (dr phil) but I will acknowledge it in a few days, k? lol I mean why get on the scales and depress myself right now? I will just be a really good girl and hope like hell I can loose back down to at least 207 before I get on them! Last time I got on scales they were 211.5 but that was the day before I started my period so I am praying for massive amount of water rentention :biggrin:. I froze the christmas cookies I made to get them out of my sight. Hmmm, maybe a handful of diet pills to get back on track after the holidays isn't a bad idea...:rolleyes2:. For the energy if not anything else. I am just rambling. My dr would not give them to me anyway since I am banded. I would feel like a major jackass asking anyway. Maybe dh can go get some:tongue2:. The only other kickstart idea I can think of is a swift kick from some of my violet friends. You would think having to buy fat girl clothes again to replace my skinny ones from last year would be incentive enough, right? It is. This is just temporary. I am a winner and I will win this one too!:rolleyes3: GO ME! :glare: Have a fantastic Christmas everyone and don't eat anything you don't wanna see on the scales....trust me!

My SS is lucky to be getting the gift at all....I love the box and the gift in it and did not wanna part with it..LOL I will just go get me one too It was so great paying off some bills yesterday. Now they are history...gone...siyanora :crying: WOOHOO! No car note either...sweet....:frown: Today I am going to do some Christmas shopping for Macy. She wants a cupcake maker:scared2:. That is what she told santa she wanted so I will go get it. Hopefully it runs out of batter really quickly, lol. My mom already got her the lion cub she wanted. She is at the age that she wants everything she sees on TV. "mom, I want that" "Mom, I want that" MOM HURRY AND COME LOOK....I WANT THAT"!! lol I also need to get something that I thought I would never get....bigger winter clothes. Thats right...my long sleeved shirts are too tight. :crying: I dropped all my bigger winter clothes off @ Goodwill last spring. BUT, it is what it is and I will fix it and move on. Most of my 12/14 (stretch) pants still fit....I always gain weight in my upper body. Its the linebacker in me. Even when I got down to 173 the smallest shirt I could wear was 18/20 or MAYBE a big 16. Now I am back to a 20 or 22. Oh I could SQUEEZE into 18 but I hate tight clothes. If it clings to me, forget it! I will not wear anything that lets the rolls show. :blushing: I spy some serious new years resolutions. :mad2: Have a great day everyone and lets strive for a good pie hole report, k? So far I have had coffee:biggrin:

Good GOD I love all you ladies!!! I loved Lauras joke about eating at the holidays...especially the end! Then I read all of your pie hole reports and realize I'm not the only sinner today! I am not even gonna go into it other than to say I haven't frozen the cookies yet so I have alot less to freeze now:scared2:. I mailed off my secret santa gift....it should be there by Friday they said. Enchiladas and rice & chips for lunch. Not a good bandster at all. Kat, thanks for sending Macy the card! She loved it! Have a great evening everyone...I am going to freeze my cookies....FAST!!!

Good morning everyone- Just a drive by posting this morning. Need to get macy ready for school and then get myself ready so we can go to the credit union. Keep your fingers crossed for us that we do not have to wait for our deposit to show in our account! The friend that was gonna come bake with me did not come so I ended up baking yesterday for nothing. Now I have a kitchen full of cookies that I would have waited until next week to start. How long will cookies keep fresh? Along the same subject, you could not pay me to weight right about now! TOM and cookies = disaster! :confused_smile: Have a great day everyone! Make healthy choices!

I had to do a re-read on this. At first I thought you were cheering the fact that I am having a horrible TOM...LOL!!! My bad....:tongue2:

Good morning....tom is being cruel so I am sitting here @ 6:00 AM with a heating pad on my back. UGH, damn Eve. I met a lady at the school bus stop and we have been talking everyday. Really nice lady. It is nice to have a friend around here! She is bringing her son (actually grandson she is raising) over this evening to play with Macy and we are going to be baking holiday goodies, God help me. Hope I feel better before then! I am staying away from the scales for a while...at least until tom is gone. Have a great day everyone and make healthy choices

Here is a pic of Macy in the dress that my mom made for her :biggrin: By the way, you can tell by the first pic that she watches Americas Next Top Model with me

Now, off to see santa.....

Feel better Pammie!! Macys hair looks cute Hope everyone is having a great day! I am so happy that Laura felt the baby kick! That is such an amazing time during pregnancy. Wait til he starts rolling.....that is a TRIP!

Yep....suno=snow LOL I am keeping that sign for sure! I even took the pic for in case I did lose it I would have a pic of it! lol Just got back from walmart and got neices and nephews gifts. Gotta wait until Monday to start shoppng for macy. I bought a bunch of tins to put the cookies into. I am gonna get my moms banana nut bread recipe (its to die for) and put some of that into the tins too. I have never done a little project like this before and it is gonna be fun! Terry-yes I have my van. When I went in the place the other day they let me leave with it I am in heaven! I can actually go shopping...I have wheels and money! LOL LOOK OUT! Pamela-so sorry you are sick too! Jenn just sent me a text saying that the cold weather hit them hard with ice and no power til about Wednesday!! She is in Buffalo right now and HAS power there but doesn't have internet service where she is staying. I am gonna grab a bite of lunch then bring macy to the beauty shop. Have a great day everyone!

By the way suzie...I loved the pics of you and dh!!

Today is going to be great. No hanging around the mailbox! DD has an appt o have her hair cut at 12:30 and she sure needs it. I have an appt on next Friday to have my hair colored by a professional. My christmas present to ME. I don't like spending that kind of money but I only do it maybe once a year. I have done enough of the home stuff now it is time for a real beautician to get her hands on it to 'fix' it. I wanna have chocolate brown, maybe a little lighter. Then in a few months, about spring, maybe highlights. Before and after her hair cut we are gonna do some shopping. I am going to bring her to see santa at the mall. Jane-thanks for the little fishing boat guy! Too cute. Are we better this morning? Everything is going to be just fine. Keep us posted. By the way, here is a pic that I posted on facebook too. Macy (5 years old) made a sign and put it on our door a couple of days ago...can you guess what it says? Sound it out...think PHONICS....lol

Hmmmm, I wanna keep the gift I got for my violet for Christmas.....what a dilemma. lol

I can just *think* of eating a FF and I start sliming....how do you do it?

YAY...I KISSED THE MAILMAN....well, not really but I would have :rolleyes2: Our ship came in....whew! Pamela-I love that movie March of the Penguins. I have it on DVD. I need to go get macy off the bus but I wanted to drop in and share the good news. TTYL

Thanks for sharing the videos Laura! I love the santa hat one!

Good morning everyone- Jane-i just hate waiting for anything, especially test results. That is agonizing. How do you feel? Jenn-bring some popcorn with you on your trip! Have fun :wink2: TracyinKS-tell mom we are all there with her! How is your throat? I hope you do not get strep. Pamela-tell Susanne congrats! That is so awesome :crying: Suzie-you weren't a woman with alot to say last night?! Laura-cherish what you are experiencing...I would give anythng to be able to be prenant again. Although I am tremendously grateful for what God gave me :sleep: Kat-I am so proud of your dd. That is a big step and I pray that she will find peace & happiness in her life How are your hives? Denise-how is your dd taking the miscarriage? Judy-I am so relieved to know you are regular...pop tarts, right? Hmmm, now there is food for thought! lol Michelle-LOL @ your new siggy Haydee-we were not awake when the snow was falling otherwise I would have had macy outside with me! Who knows, maybe she will get another chance if it snows again! Terry-is today your Friday off? I hope so that way you can have a long weekend to rest and get better. Colds SUCK!! They hang on forever. It would be different if they were here a day or 2 then go away but noooooo, they stay around like an unwanted houseguest! lol I absolutely love the cards I have gotten so far. Thanks everyone! Please send me purple power that I get my check today. I need some positive vibes to push the mailman!

Dos mas picturolas :wink: Like my spanglish?

hmmm, I had Macy so I could send her to the store for me when she gets older lol Jenn-all I could stomach eating when I was having gall bladder trouble was egg sandwiches, seriously. I became addicted to them. Glad to hear that you have a date to fix the problem. Judy-you crack me up, seriously.... Still no check. I am sure it will be a few more days and until then my life is pretty much on hold and I hate that. Oh well. I will be patient. :wink: Thanks everyone for all the Christmas cards! Pamela-did you get one from me yet? I used your street address and not the PO Box. Terry-how was your hooky day from work? Have any fun? Have a great evening all. Oh, here is a cute pic I thought I would share... l
