TracyK.... I was doing the same thing a couple of weeks ago and I just had to put my food down and close my mouth. I was eating just to be eating. Not hungry at all. Those habits are hard to break for sure, but look how far you have come. You didn't do that by constantly breaking the rules. You can do this!! You'll definitely be at goal for our get together! Let's both kick butt, k?:cursing:

Thanks Judy...I know you are right. I am just having some fear issues. I have done really well today and I am going to take this thing one day at a time. "Hi I'm Tracy and I am a food-o-holic".:blink: Especially when I am nervous. I know what I need to do but OMG it is so scarey. I don't know who a "normal sized" Tracy is. I have never met her. Does any of this make sense?:confused2:

Fingers and toes crossed for you Jenn!!!

When is her NY trip? I was wondering about her earlier.

Suzanne---thank you so much for my Valentine--it is my first one this year!!! You are too sweet!! It was so unique! Just having a hard time figuring how to stand it up for display!!! LOL

Tomorrow if I have Kinsey, we are going to make some Valentines...I bought fun stuff for her to create with!!!

If I were just a smart Granny, I would send it home for her to do---but I'd rather get elbow deep in with her and make a mess!!

TTYL~~

Evening, Violets..

Laura was supposed to leave this morning for her trip to New York.

Just got back from Walmart. I tried on swimsuits, but didn't find any I couldn't live without. I have my semi-new one that is fine for now. If I hit my first goal before the Bandiversary bash, then I'll spring for a new suit. Other than that the one I have should be fine. I did get a couple of summer skirts for my cruise is size L (12/14)!! Got some zip up slacks with a belt in size 16. First time I have worn a belt in about 40 years I think!!

Ethan had a nice, long nap today so Gramma got some housework done, plus keeping up on the posts in here.

Tomorrow our PMS group meets for a chili lunch and then I have Bells at 4 and New Day Singers at 6-9. Don't know if any of those will be cancelled if we get all the snow they are predicting. I have to make some Cookies for a funeral on Wednesday. DD Kris will be here tomorrow night and I'm going to ask her to make them while I'm at rehearsal. No sense tempting me during Lent!

I've done (4) 10 minute sessions on the elliptical trainer today so far. I'm going to head upstairs when I finish this post and do my stationary bike and glider. Then I'll hit the hot tub tonight for some toning and relaxing. I'm just finishing up my second liter of Crystal Light. I'll put another in the freezer for later on tonight.

I'll check back on ya later!!

Suzanne -- Thank you so much for the Valentine!!

Jenn-- I am so happy for you, I can't wait till it is Official!

Well it is time for me to get a new family doctor. I called this morning due to I lost my voice on Saturday and hasn't come back yet. His first appt available is in April -- that is not going to work!

So I went to doc in a box - I tested negative for strep - but positive for FLU - I don't feel like I have the flu -- go figure.

My Mom has that issue with her Dr. She can call for something and be told his next appointment is 6-8 weeks out. I told her I would be a smart a$$ and make an appointment for every week, then I would call and cancel if they were not needed, the sign says you are charged if you do not give 24 hour notice of a cancel---so call 26 hours before---but have a standing appointment each week! But I despise my Mom's Dr. And she knows it. He is actually both Mom and Dad's---but I cannot stand that man, I think he is a quack, out to only make money off of seniors. He tells them whatever they want to hear, and then changes the story when I go with them (or my inlaws---they go to Quackman too) and then winks at me like they misunderstood. Aaarrgghh!

My Dr. is excellent about working me in usually that day, but no later than the next usually. For years I didn't have to worry about it because my DD was the nurse, she always got me in....now I actually have to speak with a receptionist!! But so far so good.

I hope you don't get to feeling any worse. Did they do the nasal swab or what? Yuck I hate those things!

Good Luck finding a good one you can work well with. Ask around for recommendations----word of mouth is usually a great tool. If you know any of the nurses in the area they are a great wealth of info that way too!

Time to work on dinner....

They did a nose swab -- the first for me. They gave me an antibodic for my sinus infection, and Tamiflu for the flu.

I don't know if I should take the tamiflu or not -- I really don't have any symptons of flu.:smile2:

If they caught it early, the earlier you take the tamiflu the better it works. I don't know what the incidence of false positives on the flu swab are.....you might could find out on line! I know it is amazing to me, but there are things on this computer besides LBT and ebay! Shocking!

Hope you feel better!

I think mine is in the sinus' only----head is throbbing, nose alternates from being stuffy to being so clear it burns to breath in...sucks being sick!

OMG

so went to group, no call ... then came home and took dd to the ER with her $50 co pay. man that ticks me off and I'm bringing that to family court with me on Valentine's day... anyway, she got nailed in the bridge of her nose with a basketball and is in so much pain i wanted to make sure she was ok... so all that to find out she has a bruise and will possibly have black eyes in the morning.

I am so anxious about having this job confirmed... making me crazy.... can i just scream... so I just ate 2 tbs p-butter and sf ice cream... 400cals but at least had 21g Protein. So I had 80g protein today and 900 cals.

I'm going to lie down with dd, and hope to fall asleep, i'm still not caught up

Jenn-your poor dd. That had to hurt!! Hope she isn't bruised too bad. You will hear something about the job today and it will be exactly what you want to hear, I just know it!

Sick violets-feel better soon!! (((hugs)))

good morning everyone! Wow did I sleep good last night or what! (nothing really unusual, just thought I would throw that in)

Today is my thursday work wise...one more day after today and I get my long weekend! I have an appt to get my hair highlighted tomorrow. I am going to get copper & blond mixed. Had it like that years ago and it ws really pretty. I just have not found anyone around here I trust enough to do it until ow. Hope she proves me right. As long as I do not look like a calico cat when I walk out it will be fine:wink2:

Well, one more pound to lose to get back down to 173. I still haven't gotten TOM yet. Losing this weight sure can screw with that! No comments are necessary from the peanut gallery that do not have TOM anymore:tt2::wink2::tt2:

(yes I am jealous)

Terri-how is your mom? I am still keeping you & her in my prayers.

Haydee-how did the garage sale go?

Judy-I wish you taught kindergarten here where I live. I would have loved for you to be macys' teacher! She starts kindergarten this year! Hard to believe.

Kat-how is rick? Is Kinsey feeling better? Does she still have her cold?

Tracy-you are going to be 18something before you know it!!:scared2:

I better get up and get moving. Frank is not here this morning to bring macy to daycare so its all on me. Take care everyone!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
