Good Morning Illinois,

I'm up in the middle of the night!  Every now and then I wake up and just canno0t get back to sleep.  Tonight's one of those nights!  Christmas was good, but my eating has been a little uncontrolled.  I still have a good deal of resistance, but I'm finding that at times, I can now eat much more.  Then at other times, boom, I can't eat very much.  I could probably get a fill and be back to where I was a few months ago, but I think I want to try and do more through self-control.  I start school next month and my plan is to join the health club and use the time between work and class to exercise.  I've already called and found out the costs of joining and feel like that is the answer to getting the last 20 pounds off.  I haven't gained any weight back, but I've been at a standstill for months now.  Health wise, I'm doing great, but I still need to develop some consistant excersize or I'll just keep getting older and slower!  Have a great day everybody!

GMI,

It might as well be the middle of the night for me.  I have just been worn out with being in the house with DW coughing, sneezing and sniffling.  I can imagine how much worse it is for her.  What a way for her to spend her vacation time.  I am hoping her 4-7 days will go by soon and not need to take a trip to the doctor.  She started with a sore throat.  I have woken up with a small tick in my throat this morning.  I can only hope some tea will get rid of it.  Both of us sick at the same time will certainly be the kind of thing sitcom humor is made of.  So pathetic that to relieve the pain itmust be laughed at.

Paul, is your school connected to a larger school with workout facilities?


Randy

So you have been forgiven?

Good morning  Paul and Randy. Wow, the 2 males here already. It's a first for IL.

Good morning my IL friends.

Paul, I'm sure that you'll drop those 20 pounds in no time!

Randy, yikes - the tickle of the throat just may be the beginning of your DW's illness. I hope not!

Today it's another work day and then tomorrow I'm working a half day.

New Year means new me or should I say old me coming back stronger than ever??

Wishing everyone a wonderful day.

Hugs,
Lucy

Good morning Paul and the rest of IL, Paul nice to see you again, I know what you saying about eating a lot and the next time can't eat much at  all,  My weight has slowed down a lot  too I hope to get the rest off but only time will tell,
For me today off to coffee with the gals then home, not much going on,
Randy hope you and you DW are feeling well soon,
Have a good day everyone
Hugs to all,

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!

Good morning all!

Just getting ready for work here.  Yesterday I overslept and was almost late!  My whole day was out of wack, not a good way to start the work week.  I have a full day today and half a day tomorrow.  I can't wait for the nice long weekend.  Ok well I guess I should get my butt out of this house and too work.

Have a great day!

Good Morning Early Birds. I just have a few before I need to leave for work too. I am working all day today and tomorrow. Then off until Tuesday. Monday is a trip up to see DR. G. at Hoffman Estates. 
 
Yesterday was extra slow, heres hoping today is too. This week between Christmas and New Years is always slow. I don't think people want to think abount anything they need.

Paul, I need to get back on track too, The holidays are so bad for us. I know I gained  a few lbs, so, Friday morning I am going to detox my house of all goodies, If DH wants anything, he best hide it.

Have a great day, stay safe and warm.

Good morning Paul and Illinois!

Took down most of the Christmas decorations and boxed them yesterday. Today I may tackle the tree. It looks soo barren in here
now. I'm really not ready to get rid of the tree yet but it to must go
until next year.

Still needing to get on track and stay there. I too must purge my house of the extras. I know I can get rid of the rest of these pounds.....
Can't wait to get back to the gym next week......will exercise at home today.

Next week I'm getting my 9 month labs drawn. I can't believe it is
almost 9 months since I've had surgery.

Have a great day everyone!
Carol

Good morning!

I'm enjoying the days off work, although I have to go in today for a couple of hours, then off till Monday. Kay and I went to Madison yesterday to see the doc. I got a .25 fill which either brings me to 10.25 or 8 depending on the record or what they can measure by taking out what will come out. Like Paul said the restriction varies from meal to meal. It would be far better for me if I couldn't eat bread--my downfall, but generally I can. So it is time to say I choose not to. Time for a kick in the pants, like many are saying.

Well, I'm going to knit this morning until I have to go into work.

Have a good day!

Connie
