hollyberries

Anyone want to join me in a exercise challenge for the month of July. I am not sure how to run this but I think something like pick how many hours that you plan to exercise for the month and update each week. Name............Exercise..............#Hours Committed..........#Hours Completed Hollyberries....Water Aerobics.....20 Hours......................0 Tag your it! Lets commit to getting our booties going and getting rid of some of the Flab! Cindy

I haven't had a chance to get on lately. Haven't been the best low carber and the scale is definately showing it...up about 3-4lbs. Getting back on track though...I lose better on low carb. B: 2 eggs, 2 tbsp cream cheese & real bacon bits & butter S: Cheeze Its & Chipolte Peanuts L: Cheeseburger & peppers/onions fried S: Cheezits & coffee w/cream & 2 equal D: steak & salad & Zuccuni...very bad PB...most of it came back up...

Pudding with real whip cream & walnuts I did one hour of water aerobics this morning and cleaned my downstairs...it really needed it and I must admit that I hate it with a passion. Keep up the great work everyone. Cindy

Doesn't it feel good! The scale doesn't matter because the NSV's mean more. I am going to Patriots Training Camp on Monday. Can't wait...we make an afternoon of it and get to see our guys up close instead of just on the TV. Can't believe Football season is here already...woohoo! Can't wait! Cindy

OK...everyone we need to meet and think of plan to do so....any thoughts? Cindy

Hey Sades... I got to meet CindyG today...she is so sweet and I wish I had more to time to talk with her. She stopped by my store before going to the Cape. We talked about you and that we really want to go see you....next year in our Bikini's. She is very beautiful too! I met her son and Aunt Nora...they had a blast sniffing my candles. It was so nice to put a face with the name and I really felt like we have known each other for years...I wish we could all meet in person someday. I feel like you are part of the family. Glad to see the scale moving in the right direction for you. Finally right! Relax this weeked...I can't even believe you went back to work already... November Nymphs Rule! Cindy

Renewed; wishing you the best in any decision you make. It sounds like you are going to be doing South Beach which is a very good low carb plan. It allows you to eat the best carbs.

OK...moving ports, punks with blue and green hair...am I tripping. I think that we would have had a blast together...not to mention probably good friends. Memories...I feel so old right now. Cindy

So sorry to hear about this issue you are having. These recipes are awesome and will give you more calories so that you can compensate the exercise. What kind of exercise do you do? Keep your chin up... Cindy

Details on meeting INXS..that was one of my most favorite bands. I was telling the hairdresser today about how I was a punk in high school. I had blue hair, wore a dog collar, loved to slam dance and wore a black trench coat. To todays standards, I would be arrested for just looking weird. I loved Boy George, Flock of Seagulls, Till Tuesday, Thompson Twins, Billy Idol and to many to mention. The only thing I didn't like for music was Heavy Metal. How you feeling today? Cindy

Hey guys...hope everyone's day has gone good. I stayed low carb all day and I got batteries for the scale and I am up only about 1/2lb. I was happy about that after the Ice Cream Sundae. I got a new funky hair cut today to match my 113lb loss. I love it...family can't get used to it. I cut it short because of all the hair loss. My hair has really thinned out a lot. Today's menu: B: 2 eggs, 2 slices of bacon & 6 sausage links...I was ravished today. S: 1/2 cup of Mixed Nuts L: 3 steak tips with peppers, onions & mushrooms and broccoli S: Sm.

Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes Have a wonderful night everyone. Cindy

Oh my goodness, Woodstock! I was only 1 year old. However, you got great taste in music because I love all those 80's bands. Don't make music like that anymore. Matter of fact, my boys are loving the 80's..LOL! Cindy

Cindy... I am so excited if you get a chance to stop by one of my stores. I am located in Kingston and Middleboro. However, Kingston would be closer. We are off of Route 3, exit 9, left off the exit and up on left 1/4 of mile. I am about 10 minutes north of downtown Plymouth. I will be there over the weekend, both days Saturday (10-5) and Sunday (12-5). My phone number is 781-936-8125 call me with any questions. I would love to meet you if you have time. By the way, the scales batteries went dead this morning...kind of happy about that then I don't have to see if I gained or not. Tomorrow will come soon enough. Cindy

Ok...so something must be working my way today. The scales batteries are dead so I didn't get a chance to weight myself this morning. I am ok with that because I don't really want to see what happened to me after eating the devil carbs. Someone was asking about recipes. I have another awesome website for low carb recipes... Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Induction Menus Have a great day everyone! Here is to Ketosis... Cindy

Sugar Bean...where did you get the I lost 75lbs Star...I would like to get one for losing 100lbs. Thanks, Cindy

Ok...so I suck today. I stayed on plan all day through dinner and everything and then bam....I gave into a craving that I have been having all summer. I ate an ice cream sundae tonight...not just an ordinary sundae but a gushy, choc. cake, vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, whip cream, nuts and cherries and a large portion. I was sick after eating it. I know that it will take me about week to lose what I will gain from this little indulgence. B: 2 eggs & 4 slices of bacon S: DD Ice coffee, cream & Splenda L: Celery Stix and Blue cheese Veggie Dip S: 2 oz. Dry Roasted Mixed Nuts D: Steak Tips with pepper, mushroom & onion and mashed cauliflower S: The Ice Cream Sundae from Hell! Everyone else is doing marvelous. Great job for staying on track. Cindy

Too Funny! The bathing suit that I just got is getting to big for me. I just bought another one...I'll have to take a picture in that one....Ha Ha...but I am going to wait...I ate a Ice Cream Sundae tonight and I feel so gross...it will take me all week to probably lose all the weight I am going to gain by eating it..I haven't had that many carbs since July 4th! Shout out to my girl Sades! Sounds like your spirits are up today! Yeah! You go girl! Give me an S...Give me an A....Give me a D....give an E....Give me an S. What does it spell Sades, Sades, Sades...Go Sades. Cindy

Dude! That is an an awesome accomplishment. You should be proud of yourself. How is your wife doing? Glad to hear things are going well for you. Miss you perspectives don't be a stranger.. Cindy

You have the double whammy...TOM and Exercise...when did you start exercising? I know when I first started about 8 weeks ago that the scale yo yo'd up and down for about the first month it wasn't until a few weeks ago the scale started to move... Don't get discouraged...you will have a woosh this week I am sure. Not a problem with venting...we all need it now and then. Keep up the great work! Cindy

It's me again! I have been surfing tonight and looking for some new ideas for recipes. I loved these recipes scroll the left side for some of them but there are some unique ideas for nacho chips and rolls, etc. I love some of them and I am going to definately be making them...
