Good Morning Everyone!

I just wanted to post a Good Morning message to all of my Decemberite Buddies. I have not been sleeping well the past few days. I have a syndrome that I named "BBS" (Busy Brain Syndrome) I can't seem to shut off my brain when it is time to sleep. So, I'll be taking an extended nap today. (Just glad that I can) For some odd reason, I can always sleep better during the daytime than at night. Guess I am a true night owl. House cleaning day will just have to wait! (at least until after my nap) I wish all of you a wonderful day and hope that you all are sleeping well and losing weight like crazy! Would love to hear a little update from each of you. Yes, ALL of you! Take care, have a great day! Tracy

HI THERE TRACY...... HOW ARE YOU... GOING TO JOIN CURVES TODAY. I GOT A FREE PASS . THE PRICE IS RIGHT SO I WILL JUST DO IT. SOMETIMES I NEED TO BE PUSHED AND MY FRIEND IS PUSHING ME. THANKS FOR THE POST FOR US. FOR ME MY WEIGHT LOSS SEEMS TO SLOW UP NOW. WHAT I AM WONDERING IS.... I STARTED ON 12/15/03 AT 245 LBS I AM NOW 165 PDS 80 PDS DOWN. DOES THE BODY KNOW WHEN TO STOP?. I AM WONDERING HOW MUCH MORE WILL I LOSE SINCE I AM AT THE BEGINNING OF MY WEIGHT LOSS. I WAS THINKING MY GOAL WOULD BE AT 35 MORE PDS 130 LBS WOULD BE FINE... TRACY WHAT DO YOU THINK? THANKS AND HAVE A GOOD DAY........ TO ALL YOU GUYS LORRAINE

Hello Lorraine, A friend of mine is in the process of buying a Curves franchinse. He plans on putting one in Orlando, where his partner is first, then if that takes off...I think it prolly will, he will put ne down where he is in Ft. Myers. I told him that if he gives me discount cards, I'll get hi business! We'll see how that works out! I think you look great now! 35 more might just be perfect for you. Don't want to go too low. I have about 59 more to go to get to my PRE plastic surgery goal weight of 125. I think 115 would suit me though. That is is I still have humongus ta ta's after the weight loss. lol If the Ta Ta's go, then I'll prolly be better around 100. You have done great! Keep up the great work. I am waiting for the Fed Ex man right now to deliver my new thigh machine. I bought it off of ebay for $3.95!!! It's brand new, it the box and was on TV for about $80! Of course shipping brought it up to about $15 but thats CHEAP! Maybe I can get these saggy thighs of mine to shape up a little. But I still expect a thigh tuck! Now when people say "hows is hangin'" it takes on a whole new meaning cuz EVERYTHING is hangin'! lol Have a great day! Tracy

Hi Lorraine Mind if I jump in on your conversation with Tracy???? I too started at 245 and am down 80lbs to 165 Isn't it awesome!!?? I am 5'4" and my original goal was 140 or a size 10. 4.5 months out I am only 25lbs away and a size 12 so I think I will re-evaluate my goal. I am also wondering where I will end up since we are so early in this process. I don't think I'd want to get under 120. I have a PS consult in June for possible Tummy Tuck and Breast Reduction sometime this fall. Even after loosing 80-lbs my boobs are huge and nursing 3 babies has left them "hangin'" Congratulations on your awesome loss You are almost there Kimberly 245/165/??

Tracy, But what about the housework???????? It's Thursday Hmmm I feel like a nap too Jackie

Jackie, Funny you should say that because that is EXACTLY what my kitchen said to me as I was walking to my bedroom to take a nap. Guess who won? The kitchen! Then the bathroom...Well, maybe a late nap?! Well, at least I got some done. My friend Richard must be coming over unannounced(OK, he gives me about 30 minutes notice), usually when I clean when I don't want to, he shows up! It's my Psychic cleaning ability! Rather have a psychic abiliy that allows me to guess the lotto numbers! Well as they have always said...Man may work from sun to sun, but WOMENS work is NEVER done! My guess is, it will never get done either! Have a great day, By the way, how is the weight loss going? Tracy

Hi Tracy, Well I finally hit the 71 pounds, weighed in at 240 I was at a stand still for so long. I hope that doesn't happen again for a while! So I am half way there! Yippeee!! Of course I may not make it to 170 but if my body stops before that that would be just fine with me. Jill

My PCP prescribed Ambien for the insomnia. It works absolutely fantastic!!!
