tamra.

I think it was Pat who asked me to, but here are 2 of Brianna's Easter photos...she was killing me this year!

Gotcha! I hate when it tells me that LOL! it just did on my GOTCHA! =)

How long does the meeting last?

Sounds good Mo. I will give my ex a heads up tonite that he may need to watch the little one. Do they have a scale at the Antioch ones?

Mo, if I have a babysitter I will be there as long as you both come too, and meet me somewhere before it starts! Just finished my 2 mile walk. Whoever said their band feels stress, PMS, etc (Riley maybe?)...OMG!! Mine did this morning. I woke up feeling soooo tight in my band, I was thinking my pouch was stretched...LOL...I went potty and HELLO monthly friend....sorry John...LOL...so my band knows!!! darn you band, darn you!!!

John I forgot to answer you: When I talked to Robin she told me at this point, measuring vs weighing, she told me to WEIGH my food like I have been. She said she tried to change the binders as much as she could but missed alot. Based on me loosing 18 lbs in the 6 weeks she told me keep up the good work and to keep on doing what I am! So Pat, weighing your 3 oz of meat is FINE!!

I will try!! It's hard not too! So coffee to far this morning, not to hungry but I feel myself wanting to go see what's in the kitchen. I must be bored. I will go take a shower instead! I followed up with the job I interviewed for, haven't heard anything. I have my last school meeting on Friday to pay for my books ($300!! :smile:) but everything else is paid for me, so I can't complain. If I don't get the job I am moving forward with plans of Dental School!! :thumbup:

Thanks Candra, it's weird people see it on me, but why don't I see it? Someone once told me "Your your own worse critic".....guess thats true? That and I stair at myself everyday....god I hope I dont become vain when I am skinny...LOL!!!! =)

Well said Riley :confused:

Urgh can I just say screw Starbucks and their free pastry day!! Of course because they love me there they forced me to take scones....I put them in my car for my mom and ignored them. NO THANKS!!!!! The scale told me I was 229 three times (yes I went and stole my scale back) so I am down those horrible 8 lbs I gained...YAY!! I might make that 210 goal after all John :confused: lets do it!!!!

Heather can I be Ranch? LOL...mmm my favorite hehehe! Great pictures, yay! I cant wait to see more. I totally added them to my facebook. You guys are the funniest, and funnest group! It makes walking to much better then doing it alone!

Hi everyone, So today I decided to do a no-no and ate 2 soft pretzels. For the past 3-4 hours, I have had severe pains on my left side under my boob. It hurts to breath in deep; is the pretzel stuck??? Do I go to the ER? I haven't thrown up or anything.....I did lots of Water and GAS-X strips...

I am working on it John. I hit a few bumps on the way, but it's how I learn to work with my tool. I spoke to Robin today to explain the stage 4 weighing vs measuring and found out I am doing it fine and she told me keep going. That was reassuring so I am ready to rock some more!! I hope to be 210 when I see Baggs in May, that would be about 19 more lbs down then when he saw me.....that's a big amount, but I am gonna test myself.

I just talking to Nicole on the phone btw everyone (Not Nicollie) and she sounds soo good and happy!!! She wants to get together soon!

PM me your phone number, I might head your way and check those meetings out. Mo, you coming?

Its so weird, once you fall off its sooo hard to get back on track, just like any diet I have ever been on! But this time is different. I tell myself I didnt do this to fail, or go through the pain for fun. That seems to snap me back into reality quick!! This has been a challenge for sure, but its a great one!!! We will see the fruits of our labor one day!

That made me laugh out loud!

Ash when is the next Antioch meeting?

Maria I too gained 8 lbs (down 5 of them according to Pat's scale). Don't beat yourself up, just KEEP ON GOING!!

Congrads L!!! Whooo hooo another new sister!! Get some rest and drink that Lortab LOL I know what ya mean Ash, if I were you I would hold off for a while. Maybe don't wear it as much?

Hey re-sizing a ring is HAPPINESS!!! Better then UP sizing

LOL Ashley dont you hate that? I get them with coffee!!!! You can do it, 4 lbs baby!!!!!! :tt1:

Never mind I am deleting my post. I am moving on from this.

So anywho, the protein shakes Heather let me have are YUMMY and for 30 grams protein, so worth the $25 bucks!
