TracyK

Good morning everyone...still 210 this morning. UGH... I WILL be under in the next day or 2, then I will put the scales away for about a week or so. Tracy-I am so excited for you! I wish I was going with you. We will all be in that room with you in spirit! God I am envious! Terry-what a beautiful, sweet looking dog! I hope he is the one you are able to get. What is C&S? Laura-how are you feeling? Are the exercises helping? Pamela-I am with ya sista...I wish I would have had the other surgery at times too. Oh well, I will just work with what I have. We will make it! At least we do not have to take vitamins every day for the rest of our lives like gastric bypass patients. We will just have to be our own miracles and use the band for what it was meant to do and plug away! Neither surgery is fool proof. Le *sigh* Michelle-congrats on not getting on the scale. I am sure that you will be very happy that you didn't. Judy-how is your weight loss going? Any news? Jenn-glad you had a better day! I watched dr phil yesterday and one quick stress reliever is smelling flowers. I am gonna go get me some (or candle that smells like flowers) today It is worth a shot! Jane-what ya up to? Just because you said Oct did not start out great in the food dept for you does not men that you can't turn it around? How about it? Wanna join in and ROCKtober with us? Today is only the 3rd for goodness sake! Haydee-what are your plans for the weekend? Anything fun? Kat-When youwere typing out the meal you cooked the other day to make rick feel better...my mouth watered! All my favs too! Suzie-your dinner sounded great too. God I am hungry! lol I need to go make me some oatmeal or something...I am starving!

Today was a really good day again :w00t: I am so proud that with dh being off we did not go eat enchiladas at our fav place and we did not go get a MJC at sonic while we were out driving around. We talked about it and I told him that I wanted to ee 20something more than I wanted those things. A definite victory for me. Maybe it will pay off soon.

I have to go in that store with tunnel vision and just enough cash for what I need...I could go broke in there!!:w00t:

Hi everyone! We have been running the roads today. DH is off and we drove through parts of town that are still destroyed from the hurricane. Then you see people on the side of the road selling "I survived IKE" shirts. lol Tracy...so cool about your mom! I am with Judy...I will take anything dipped in chocolate! YUM!

Congrats Tracy!! WOOHOO! Good morning everyone...hope you all have a great day!

Good evening everyone! I did good today too! I think that makes day 12 for me?! down -6 so that is a respectable number. One more to go to get back to my pre IKE weight. I am so proud of all of us. Have a great night everyone. I will see ya'll in the morning!

Hey...where is Suzie?

I have never even eaten a quiche I need to get out more I guess

I wish I had one right now....

Where I used to work we would make turkey (or roast beef) sandwiches on coissants....yummy!

YAY for Tracys mom!! WOOHOOO!! That is so exciting! So far I have done 2 loads of clothes (washed & folded), made the beds, emptied dishwasher. Now on to folding another load of clothes, taking a shower, putting on my makeup even though I have nowhere to go. Why you ask? Because it makes me feel better on the inside knowing I look good on the outside....

That is what my mission is...to Rocktober. I am going to have a fantastic month (even if it kills me). My goal is to be back in onederland by Thanksgiving. That is approx 6 weeks away. Attainable? Sure it is. There is only one thing that can keep me from doing it....ME. So, with that being said, it is time to get off my ass and get to work! See ya!

Good morning ladies~ I LOVE what Laura said the other day to Jenn and I have not been able to get it out of my head. She said something along the lines of "you won't bring the violets down, we will lift you up". Excuse me but that is a powerful sentence!! YAY LAURA....my new motto!! I feel like a St. Bernard breathing through my mouth all the time. Its the little things in life we take for granted....like breathing through our nostrils! I can not wait until my sinuses clear up. I have gone and let myself get addicted to sunflower seeds. I wish I had some speed so I would be so busy dashing about doing this & that so I would not even have time to think about them. Better sunflower seeds than ice cream I guess. They have alot of protein and no carbs really to speak of. So, are they ok? Ms wishy washy! lol I hope that everyone has a great day! And Tracy...I am so proud of you for not eating pie :cursing:

We are going to ROCKtober :cursing:

Kat-OMG, that is awful! Do you have any idea where they got your account info?

Congrats on your sobriety! Feels good, huh? I am glad so many of us are back on the bandwagon! Makes it easier to be accountable. Thats because execs have the secretaries doing all the work...they do not need desk drawers! Haydee I have heard they are fabulous:tongue2:If you do not like them you can give them to me:tt1: I did OUTSTANDING today! I have had 1080 calories, 80 grams of protein and about 40 carbs. I may have a sf fudgesicle tonight. :drool: Losing weight while not smoking....what a deal! Have a great night everyone!!!

Another good thing about these sinus problems is that I am SO thirsty with this medication that I know I am getting enough water!

Michelle-I got the pachage in the mail :cursing: Way cool! Thanks so much! No luck with the chore of the day. :thumbdown: At least I am not stress eating. THAT is what matters to me the most!

Kat & Haydee-still trying the dime/quarter thing with no luck....will keep you all posted on the effort...speaking of which, are people able to get on the internet while in jail? I may need to know this info! LOL

Good morning everyone- lost another .5 I guess to some people .5 is nothing but to me it is everything...why? because two of the .5s is 1.0 LOL! I have so much to do today...my agenda today is making a dime into a quarter... Wish me luck :biggrin: Jenn-I am glad you posted. We miss you. Give yourself a break, ok?

Kat-that is hilarious! Thats good for 'em!

Funny that you said that Kat. Macy had picked out Laura. She said she is beautiful. :cool2:

I am having such a hard time today being good....I am up to about 900 calories for the day...If I stop grazing now and just have a small supper I can salvage the day!

I just threw away a bag of toffee coated nuts when I realized I was eating a handful every time I went into the kitchen:thumbup:
