Topic: Sunday Check In
Wow!!! We have set a new record for the A=team....not 1 single posting for a whole week! What's going on? Hopefully, everyone is happily busy with their lives. But, please, find some time to check in with us. remember, we are all here to support and help each other. We are here to celebrate successes and lend a loving ear for when one of us is having a hard time.
My week was good....holding steady. People seem to think I have lost weight, but I haven't. I suppose the weight redistributes, but I will take anything positive.
Total loss 150- 155 pounds.
And how was your week??

Hello A-Team!
Believe it or not....no major drama here this week!!! About time!! I am still at 161-162 for the 2nd week in a row. I am pretty much in size 8's and 10's. i wanted to be in single digit clothes and finally here I am. I just need to decide if I am willing to keep my exercise up (or lack of). Gotta get better and quick! I suck at exercise! It;s not like I sit on the couch or anything. I am VERY active but I just can't seem to find, I MEAN MAKE, time to exercise. Maybe tomorrow I will hit the pool and do some laps.
Hope everyone is doing ok....Let us hear from you....
Hugs,
Rhonda T

It was HOT here today! About 100!! At least it cools off in the evenings......
Shar, good to hear you're back ontrack. It's not easy,,that's for sure.
I'm doing ok,,at 150 this week. BUT I'm going back to work after having been off work for my plastics. Work is trying for me since it's tempting to sit & nibble on snacks all day. Hopefully, since I've been off, I've broken that habit but I have no doubt it'll be easy to slip right back into the ol' routine.

Hey Shar,
It's been nice here too, have had the ac off for 2 days now.
Had a good week this week. I have maintained 125 for a whole week. No loss, no gain. Im happy with that. Having a bit of trouble with blood sugars but managable. No vomiting this week and just a little pain. Only needed the pain medicine about 1 time a day now so that is much better.
Everyone have a great week. We are working tons of overtime at work so I will be busy this week. They have me scheduled for 52 hrs.
Love you all
Cindy

Post Date: 7/18/09 9:14 pm Quite a few folks questioned me so
I am going to try to explain the FOREVER BOX I am not sure how long it has been going on or what board it was on but back in Aug of 2008 I saw it mentioned...It is a list of people and then one person started it and put 4 items in it..mailed it to someone on the list..that person gets it in the mail takes out up to 4 things and then has to put back 4 new things, you then mail it to someone new , you tell what you took out BUT not what you put in...the package keeps traveling I received it and took out 3 and put back 3 and it will be mailed on Monday to a person in OH...I am not sure who started it and I had even forgot about it until it arrived...It was great just like the secret pal forum where you get on a list and you get a secret pal for 3 months and each month you send them a package and also send them e-mail and snail mail (reg.mail) I hope this helps Joanneg

I know life can get hectic. I know it is about decisons we make and also about exercise and the work we put in it, I keep switching back and forth and seems my strength is low and devotion to keep going is at a low point, I am not gaining weight just maintaining which is good I guess but I am not losing either,I was told by my doc I need to still lose 20 more lbs and the last 20 will even be harder then the first 100 lbs, So right now I am making a small goal to lose 5 lbs and see if that get me going in right direction, today I made good choices about food tommrrow I hope will be a good food choice and about exercise and getting back into the routine, I am taxed out with my daughter's post stroke recovery and losing patience with her, I finally saw some light and like her in therpy sometimes we just are not motivated and need a breck and that is it exzactly what is happening to me no difference same out come, My daughter took time off from therpy and now is back full swing, We all sometimes need to step aside and take a break from wls SOOOOOOOOOOO Having said this if u dont see me for awhile know I am regrouping and rethinkg my life,I am in crisis and not even sure how to stop or even want to stop But no matter if I am gone just a day or weeks know I am forever thinking of everyone,,But for now I am not even strong enought for my self yet alone anyone else forgive me everyone for my weakness and tole things have taken on me, I hope to retun with renewed strength and optomism but for now I see everything in my life spiraling out of control.
Good luck everyone and my best thoughts forward to everyone in their future sucess
