 Good Morning Everyone!

Happy Saturday!  I hope all of you have a great weekend.  I know that some of you have some wonderful plans and hope that they are lots of fun.  For some, it is the normal mundane tasks that we usually do on Saturdays.  For others, it is a time of relaxation.  Whatever is on your agenda, I hope it goes well!  

I hope we warm up soon It has been so cold.  I have to say I am ready for winter to be over!  I sure hope that groundhog predicts an early spring!  Think warm! 

Everyone have a beautiful day no matter what you are doing!  Enjoy!

hi all,

a little running around today, washing my hair, still shopping for washing machines and of course studies.  I also need to work on some of the stuff pertaining to the opening of my company-i just have no time.  So hopefully a good day, having trouble with the dtr, it's not easy raising a teen-whew but i'm really trying not to let it get me down as i am an emotional eater.  I did not do so bad last night but i did get off track a bit, and not with the bad stuff. 

Please keep me in your prayers

Those teen years can definitely be challenging.    It is said that the teen years are a revisit of the terrible two's years.  Just remember, you survived those, and you will survive these as well!  Good luck.

Hello everyone

Happy Saturday.  I am planning a day of nothing.  I think I may go to Target to shop around but mostly to get out and walk.  If you walk the whole circumference of the store a couple of the times it's good exercise.  It's too cold to walk outside.

Well I had 2 NSVs yesterday and they happened within in hour of each other.  I had to do laundry yesterday so I was loading up my car and my neighbor stopped by and said "you know I have been noticing you have been losing weight.  I wanted to say something for awhile but we never get to talk"  and then I went to my local laundromat and the lady there knows me... when you do laundry on a regular basis you get to know people.  She said and I quote "hey you have been losing a lot of weight lately haven't you??"  I was really happy.  Yeah me!!!  Well I had three NSVs  if you count the fact that Wednesday I wore a pair of pants that I haven't been able to wear for about ten years.  It's a pair of khakis and they never go out of style.  I wore them to work and showed them off.  Hehehehe 

My restriction is pretty close to perfect.  I went out last night with a friend and we went to White Castle ( I know not the most healthy food, but I was told a little of something isn't bad)  I bought two white castles and could only finish 1 1/2 and no fries of course.  But when you consider that before the surgery I could eat like ten of those things plus lots of fries and soda...I think I am on track.  I also got all my water in yesterday too.  So let's hope I still lose weight. 

I went to Best Buy last night to use the last of my Best Buy gift card.  I got two DVDs Halloween II and Public Enemies.  I will watch one of them tonight.   

Shaun  I was a single mother of a teen so I know what you mean.  Although, my daughter was really too good and never gave me trouble.  I still had so much to do and there was always drama. 

Nancy- I was thinking about going to the dish but you made me reconsider.  I also wanted to tell you at my work they clean out the refrigerators every other Friday so if I take a Friday off and forget about my food they throw it all away...Tupperware and all.  It makes me sooo mad.

Christina-  I do hope you feel better really soon.  I hope they figure out what is zapping your energy.  I will send you lots of feel good soon vibes your way.

I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

Way to go on those NSV's!    What a wonderful feeling!  I have loved closet shopping as I change sizes.  Old favorites can be worn again!  Glad you are doing well with the restriction but can eat.  

They used to clean out the fridges on Friday at work.  That makes more sense to me.  I was used to that.  If I forgot something, I considered it my fault.  What makes no sense to me is why on Mondays when people are bringing lunches for the week.  I am not good at remembering to take mine every day.  Then that leaves the vending machine which is baaaad!

Good Morning on this sunny but cold Saturday.

I am glad I am not having to go out today.I have a number of things that I want to get to, including some paper work that needs to be done.
I do intead to spend part of the day working on either a rug or a quilt too.

Yesterday while out shopping, I was able to pick up a turkey tenderlion for 3.99. I thought that was a great deal, and the no sale date was still a week away. It will make a great Sunday dinner. With Fage and GenSoy bars on sale too, I think I got some deals.Of course, DH pointed out that I spent a few $$$ more then needed. But, I did get some good deals. What do men know anyway .

Stay warm, stay safe.

Huggers,
Lisa

Sounds like you got some great bargains!  Just let hubby loose in a grocery store and see how much he spends.  That will open his eyes!

Good morning Nancy and Illinois!

Like you Nancy I am thinking SPRING!!!!! I can't wait for this weeks slight warm up.

Yesterday I got another tiny fill (.1cc). I have gained 3.5 pounds since September. I'm hoping that this fill will help. I'm still not at goal. I'm truly a slow loser. I'm still working out a minimum of 3 days a week and have stepped up the intensity of the workout. Que sera sera...what will be will be...

Not much on my agenda today...maybe I'll go to one of the big box stores to walk today. I've got nothing I need to buy...take that back I want to buy a teapot.

Hope you all have a great day!

Carol
