I just showed macy a pic of all of us violets. I said "these are mommas friends". She looked it over really well then she says "do any of your friends have a loose tooth?" LMAO!

Terry-thanks for telling me about the dairy/bacteria thing. I did not know that. Another reason to stay away from ice cream :thumbup: By the way, dd stayed home today because over the weekend she caught pink eye!

Hi everyone- Denise-absolutely precious babies! Tracy-I am OK. Any positive input from your dh yet? I hope so. I know how much it means for spouses to actually back us up and help us with our decisions! Pamela-I am so glad you get to go and spend some time with your dad. Treasure the time you have now. I know I did with my dad to and I would not treade those days for anything! Terry-congrats on jumping back on the bandwagon with us. Judy-thanks for the example of the meals. Boy that would take alot of getting used to! Wow...I need to try that. Thank you so much! Laura-good luck today. Hopefully you will feel better soon. :biggrin: Kat-how are you today? You need to take it easy! Janie-thanks for the inspiring words. You are right. We have all done so well and come so far! RAH RAH RAH! GO VIOLETS! Today my throat is still raw but here is the good news....I may have gotten something intestinal now...without grossing you all out...it is something that may help on the weight loss! lol I was in the restroom for 20 minutes this morning. This may be a shove in the right direction that I have been waiting for! I gotta laugh about it otherwise I would cry! I had said at one time that I wa sone stomach flu away from my goal weight. Oh well, I am not that close to goal anymore but I will definitely look at the bright side of the situation. :thumbup: Have a great day everyone! Michelle, Haydee, Jenn, Suzie, Gina and all other violets....((((hugs))))

:teeth_smile:WOOT!! HELL YEAH! :wink_smile::biggrin:

Good morning violets- Terry-woke up thinking of you this morning. How are you? How was the service? Glad to see Judy posting today Welcome back. Here is just a little bit of my poor me this morning... my neck is stiff all over again plus my thoat feels like it is on fire! The dr told dh that Ike really stirred things up and ALOT of people are sick with their allergies. I sure hope dd doesn't relapse. She woke me up an hour ago (6AM) telling me her eye hurts. Dear God, please do not let her get pink eye! Laura-how are you doing? Any better at all? Judy-give me an example of your 6 meals per day thing. Thanks about cheering me on about the mile per day. I figured its gotta be better than nothing! Suzie-I would not be able to go to a casino without playing at least ten bucks! That is restraint! Jane-What is on your agenda today? Michelle-I saw the weather just now and it said Hurricane Kyle is causing flooding in MD...are you effected? Kat-did you go to the movies? Pamela-I am so sorry about your dad. Words fail me:crying: Tracy-how was your sisters celebration party? Jenn-we hate when you go AWOL Gina-have you gotten back on track with us trying to be good bandsters? Haydee-how are you? How is the wedding business going? Any in the future? I am hanging around the 210.5 to the 212 range. I guess the ice cream for my thro did not help but what is a girl to do? Every day I try to not let the scale get me down. Eery day I relive the fact that I have done this before and I am having to do it again. Ugh...let me stop there. I don't wanna rehash it (again). Its my own fault. I will stop whining and keep on working! Have a great day everyone!

WOW...super duper quiet here today. I am gonna go watch some TV. Have a good night everyone!

Paul Newman died :frown::thumbup:

I came a frogs hair away from losing that last post....I would have been PISSED! lol

Good morning ladies- Slept really good last night compared to the night before. I was so bummed when I realized I forgot survivor started Thursday night :tt1: Oh well, I have it scheduled to record every episode so now I will not miss any unless the cable/lights go out. I have had ice cream the past couple of days because my throat hurts so bad. I am not getting on the scales. Why punish myself?! I will wait until tomorrow or the next day. Nothing much really on the agenda this weekend other than healing. DH is working days and dd and dsd are here hanging out w/ me. I don't know if I told ya'll that I do not have my car anymore. I did not need it and we are trying to downsize as much as possible to 'start over' and rebuild. DH only works days 4 out of 16 days so that is really the only time I am without a vehicle. I do not go anywhere at night anyway because I hate driving at night. Can't really see well at night. So it all works out good. Whenever I did have my car it sat outside doing nothing, literally. I could not see paying monthly on something I did not use. Plus I got to drop it off the insurance policy. One day down the road I will get one and pay cash for it and be done with it but for right now, I am loving it. We have a store right down the street if I am in dire straits and need anything (which is yet to happen). DD rides the school bus. That is how I get my exercise. Walking to the bus stop and back is half a mile and I do it twice a day so that is a mile per day each day. Sometimes I drag along her bicycle for her to ride back from the bus stop. I am just glad everything will be back on track (financially) soon. Evacuating for hurricanes can be expensive! Good Lord! I wish we had a relative or something we could go to when the storms come this way. Just the hotel stay was like 500.00. Then coming back and having to restock the freezer & fridge? YIKES! But at least we had a home to come home to...that is what I keep reminding myself of. We have our family and our health, that is the important thing. OK, I have rambled enough. Terry-I am thinkig of you today. ((hugs)) Janoe-I thought your pic was just fine! Judy-I miss you already. Jenn-come back. How are your female problems? TracyinKS-I am still jealous :bolt: Gina-good to see you posting regularly again! Suzie-I love the little quote you have in your signature! Pamela-how is the lush this morning? LOL Laura-congrats on the degree. You are fantastic! Good luck with the maternity clothes. I never did use maternity, just bigger plus size clothes. Kat-I'll bet you are feeling SO much better. I would have been so tempted to tell them to take out the band. That would have scared the wits out of me! Haydee-how ya loving those lights and a/c? Looks like the storm season may be over for this year? At least I pray it is! Michelle-what is on your busy agenda this weekend? I sure hope i did not leave anyone out! Have a great & safe weekend everyone!

Hi again everyone- To top off the illness I slept wrong last night and my neck & shoulders hurt. OK, I will stop complaining now. Tracy-I am so jealous of you...see if they will do a buy one get one free. :thumbup:

Hi. I got up for a minute. I feel horrible so I am going back to bed until dd gets home. I will check back later.

Good morning everyone. Macy was ready to go to school today. Even with her brother and sister here she was ready. Makes me happy :tongue2: Dss is going home today but dsd wants to stay. They do not go back to school until Monday. They are from the LaPorte area and really got hit hard by Ike. Terry-when are you going to get your new addition to the family? That is one of my fav dog breeds ever! I am the sickest in the house today. My throat hurts something terrible. I put myself on some antibiotics and hopefully they will help get rid of it. Bad thing is...ice cream feels good on my throat. Enough said... I am gonna go lay down for a while. Take care everyone!

Yay Tracy!! :smile2: Hi everyone

GOOD LUCK TRACY!!!!!! Let us know what happens at the PS

YAY for HAYDEE!! I am so glad your lights are on! How about your mom...are hers yet? Good morning violets- Just a quick check in. I decided to let dd stay home today since her brother & sister are here. But i told her she has to go tomorrow and so far she is OK with it (good thing, huh?) Lost another .5 this morning. BYE JUDY! Be a good bandster while you are gone! Have a great day violets!

I am just checking in for my last time today. Have a restful night violets! (((hugs)))

Tracy-Sister...if I didn't eat spaghetti, you stay away from the enchiladas! What do you want more...17something or an enchilada? hmmm? :girl_hug:

Excuse me while I sit her and type to myself .:clap: Once again sitting here trying to figure out what to do other than eat. I never really realized how much I eat just out of pure boredom. I lost another pound so I am down to 211. I have 2 more pounds to lose until I get back to my pre-hurricane Ike weight. Then 30 more to get back to where I was in February.:rolleyes2: Happens to the best of us I guess. 30 pounds is better than 40 right? Heck yeah! I am really glad that the biggest loser is back on TV. I don't know why but it seems like I lose weight really well while that show is on. My daughters school starts back tomorrow. First day back since the hurricane. She does not wanna go at all. She loves staying with me. I love having her home but she has to go! Oh well I have babbled enough!
