Well Janet, yes we are getting IKE up here in Canada too. Weird eh? but it does travel up that far. Quite the storm! THe wind was so strong and loud last night that I had to wear Earplugs to bed. :crying:Yes, I will have to be more dillegent on my Rx taking... dumb really... just kinda gets away on me... I havn't felt BLUE for a very, very long time. Probalby just this time of year, and that my weight is not budging much.

O.K. I've had just bout enough of IKE... and the rain/wind... Woke up today really feeling bummed... I havn't been so good about takeing me Anti-depressant pills of late... dah! Gotta do better than this Salsa/Karri, so glad to see you back. We missed you too much!

Ruby, your totals are great, Sorry I've let you down today & yesterday... emotional eating... I was kinda bummed after going to a funeral. But that shuldn't be any excuse. I have the rest of TODAY to be more accountable. Going to a SPA this afternoon for some R & R. CBL

:confused: KARI, I agree, get to a doctor at once :confused:

Wow MrsJones; Did you regain all your weight after the 1st surgery.... How are you doing now?

Hi Janet; O.k. here are my Favorites. Group 1 - 4 going from left to right each time.... GROUP#1 - Middle outfit is my fav. GROUP #2 - LEFT , 1st pic on the GROUP #3 - none of these GROUP #4 - LEFT, 1st pic from the left. I too like the BLACK/White look, but lets face it you can wear COLOR very well, especially now at your weight. You look just yummy!! :smile:

Yes, Elayne I hope the Ins. all works out for you too

If you are in Pennsylvania, why not come north to Toronto, Ontario Canada for your Lapband surgery??? You could have it done in weeks versus months?? Could you afford it?? Just a thought, about $18k here there are two really good clinics in TO.

Ruby: Great totals today on your food plan. I know what you mean about feeling fat though, even when you've eaten properly...AUGH! I have felt completely bloated the last couple of days. PB'd and then tonight... well... as you can see from the time ~ I AM UP. I have a bad case of the GIRGLES, it is so loud that I can't get back to sleep...so I had tiny sips of water & the heartburn has eased but I can't sleep with THAT noise!! My DH woke up and says "what the hell is THAT?" so I got up and am now on the computer. If I go back to sleep it'll be in the little guest bed downstairs..... hee, hee, he won't be able to hear me gurgle from down here! Denise: How is your neighborhood doing in N.Orleans? did you have much damage/cleanup to do after Gustav? I honestly don't think I could take it, year after year always wondering if I was going to have to evacuate, and deal with the aftermath... I guess its a good thing I am a Canadian and just have to shovel snow 4 months per year... but then again, if you've always grown up living with your geographical shortcomings it becomes part of your experience and make up. I once lived on the west coast(Victoria, British Columbia) and I couldn't stand the weather out there.... the sun never shone in the winter months, I found it so dreery and ached for a bright sunny, snow filled day...with the ice clinging to the trees and the sun light sparkling on the frozen branches, just beautiful.... hummm, perhaps I am part Eskimo???? Janet: I too am worried about our friend, I am sure a phone call would be appreciated. Oh yeah, I vote for the GREEN DRESS too! Phyl: Got my new computer in the lower house hooked up again yeasterday! Oh it is so fast!!! My DD donated it to me... she had it in university, but now has a company Laptop to use all the time, so I got her old one - yippee! I have to spend a few days re-loading my favorite files back on it and downloading a few casino games hee,hee.

Ya, ha,ha,ha.... yeah, what a hardship.... Janet SHOPPING!!!!! Congrats though, what an awesome Honor!! Kari; fantastiac news... to be off both meds.... you have done your body proud GF! :wink2:

so sorry you hurt your foot, I am glad it is not broken! I heard from Linda last night... poor thing, she's low. Everyone send her hugs!!! Not too good on the cals yesterday... although had a bad "STUCK" and most came back up... but ther ewas this dessert that stayed down :wink2: alas, today is another day. and so far so good, I'll post totals later when I get home afrom work.

Hi Ladies; Phyl; I loved the picture of you and your son too!! Blue jeans are great too!!! Love that smile on your face. Donna; Your pictures looked great, thanks for sending them along. I always like putting a face to the name.. and you are near Houston? Will you have to evacuate in the next couple of days??? Man you guys have sure had terrible fortune with weather this year. Today's Totals: CALORIESCARBSFATPROTEIN1,743,208,56,113 went a tad overboard tonight!!! My DH birthday is tomorrow but we selebrated tonight. I made him his favourites. BBQ pork ribs and Coffee Cake(sugar free) with SF Icecream for dessert... I make the cake from scratch so I could manipulate the ingredients, use Splenda, whole=wheat flour, FF Sour Cream instead of oil... but alas the calories still added up to too much.. But he appreciated the effort.. cake was kinda dry too.. not quite used to my new oven yet :omg_smile:

CALORIES CARBS FAT PROTEIN1,121, 95, 39, 104 revised Tuesday Totals!!!

Hey! what about ME, ME, ME :biggrin: :cool2::cry_smile:

OH Denise I am so glad that you are back and that you had minimal damage. So what's up with the Emergency Card thing? I'm from Canada so I am unsure what your procedures are there. HUGS, Candice

O.k. my humble opinion... keep up your good work. You are not too skinny. You have a waistline, hips and curves... but I gotta ask... is that your "pull on over your head bra?" :thumbdown:

CALORIESCARBSFATPROTEIN926,68,23,96 O.k. now I have to go back and read all of the TODAY posts.... You girls have been busy!

Great to see you posting Phyl. Don't get depressed about the others W/L we are all on our OWN Journey.... I still have quite a ways to go as well... 1 1/2 lbs a week is a good steady loss.. Keep that up and you'll be into the size 16's!!! My body for one is weird! I can get into a 16 top now, but fit into some 14 pants??? Guess I'll always be a bit top heavy. WHen you talk about your Earl it makes me :biggrin: cause my Hubby does the same thing. Plots our investments daily on a spreadsheet. Watches the stockmarket..... then makes a big announcemetn.. We've lost $40k in the past month...!!!!:mad: But you know what, there is not a damn thing you can do about it, its out of our control... the only thing we can control is how we make it and how we spend it. I plan on working another 4/5 yrs. Peter just announced his retirement date as next June09. So he can't be that worried? Or he'd work another year right? He's no where near manditory retirement yet. I think 'they' just like something to get all huffed up about sometimes.:frown:

O.k. Steph, take a deep breath and let it out S L O W...:frown: You are not nuts, nor are you FAT, but you know your body... if you think you still have lbs to lose why not let your BESTEST FRIENDS settle the score. You know WE won't lie to you or BS you... So post a full body photo in your size 6's a slim fitting top and let us be the judge & Jury. ok. I think "we" will always 'feel' fat even if the scale says otherwise... but I promise you we will not let you go too far... we will say something first. Our family's/ friends can't really gauge proper weight for us cause they have always KNOWN us as overweight. My Dear Sister, thinks I am slim enough now.. dosn't want me to lose any more... are you kidding me???:redface: My BMI is just barely under 30 !!! so you can see I still have a ways to go too.. and you can bet your sweet patutti that I'll be relying on you guys to tell me the truth when to STOP:blink: HUGS, you are beautiful:rolleyes: Candice

Hey Ruby, I see that you are ONLINE right now... way to go on the total cals for yesterday... 853 ROCKS... has anyone heard from Denise yet??? after the storm??? What about Linda????

ah FLICK I just lost my LONG LONG Post...

Oh Steph, I am so glad that you are getting a Greyhound. They are a sweet breed. 80 lbs in 9 months, you are our Rock Star!!! Your hubby must be so proud!! Is there anymore developments on him getting the band? I think I remember you saying he was considering it a while back. How is your MOM? Please tell her we miss her and think of her often. Love & hugs, C

Ruby: you are doing just great... having ONE liqueur will not ruin your daily total... I am so glad that we are both logging onto a E-page and journaling what we eat and then being accountable here too. I've had a good week, and feel like I am getting some "sanity" back. I was too out of control and hating myself for it. Your 'head' can be such a FLICKED up place.:teeth_smile: Hugs to all, Can
