Tuesday Roll Call

My heartfelt sympathies to you and your family -especially your Aunt.  She must be devastated.  You will all be in my prayers-Big Hugs-Janet K

I was waiting until I got back from the dr to post today.  I lost 7 pounds puting my loss since surgery at 25 pounds.  I started using fitday.  It's kind of a pain to use, but I do like how it breaks down how much protein, fat, and carbs I have had for the day.  I think if I could cut some of my fat and increase my activity that I would be doing much better.  I called the YMCA today.  They are offering no sign up fee for the rest of the month.  Now if I could just budget it in the monthly fee. Dawn, I'm so sorry for your loss.    Monica,  my fingers are crossed that you hear an approval real soon. Barry, when are we going to get to see a pic w/out the whiskers? Jen, where are you and how are you? It looks like we got somewhere between 4-5 inches up here in Lindenhurst.  I am lucky that my neighbors have a brother-in-law w/ a plow.  He plowed up to the car and that just left me a little bit to shovel.  I hope everyone is enjoying the sunny day.  It looks like we are hitting single digits again tonight and below zero tomorrow night. Everyone have a great day and stay warm tonight ~Michelle

I haven't gotten a picture of me clean shaven yet.  Kinda odd, ain't it

not really since you just shaved it off.  Did you do it while you still had your daughter?  When our daughter was little my dh had a goatee and she use to call it his purse.  She said the mustache was the handle and the beard part was the purse.  Its cute what they come up with when their little, too bad they have to become teenagers. ~Michelle

Michelle, 25 pounds is GREAT!!!!  yay you!  keep up the great work!

Thank you Michelle. You know, I used to use fitday, but I recently found SparkPeople.com and it is much more user-friendly (at least in my opinion....) for what it's worth.....

Thanks Dawn,

Sparkpeople was also recommended to me, but fitday was just easier to remember.  I think I will give it a try too.

Thank you Monica,

To be honest, I was hoping for about 10 more pounds, but I have to remember that I'm not quite a month post op.  This whole water thing is just driving me nuts.  The doc said today that I am on water pills and therefore need to drink even more water..uugghh.

I'm just going to put on a happy face and be thankful for what I got!  ~Michelle

Hi all, I was unable to get on this morning, clients aren't nice about my OH  time . We got about 3 or 4 inches of snow last night and this morning it was messy and blowing. Plus a few cars in the ditch. Work si a bit slow today, so I should be home early.  Now, all I will have to battle is sun. Will try to get in a bit later. Hugs

Hi Everyone,  I was up and out early this morning, I had a interview and then the day just seemed to snowball from there.... I am FREEZING LOL... It is cold out. I hope everyone is doing good, Dawn you will be in my prayers as well as your Aunt will be too... Have a great night Martha

Martha - Look at you just melting away!  Congratulations on your wl.  I just noticed your ticker and WOW.. You are over 1/2 way to your goal.  Way to go girl!  I hope your interview went well.  Looks as if I may be looking too.  My boss is such an a$$ and I just don't know from one day to the next how things will go.  I really just want to stick it out a few more years until we move to NC but I just don't know if that's possible.  I guess I have to just take things one day at a time. Take Care, Christina
