Haven't had a chance to start us up in a while. Heading back to bed for a few more hours. I'll check back in later.

Good mornin', ya'll.
Wednesday, PT at 10:30. She really puts me through my paces!
Afterwards, I need to stop at WM for the few things I should have picked up on Monday.
My IBM stock is over $165 per share. Which is a moot point, since I'll never sell it. But it's nice to dream.
Weatherman says snow tonight! 1" to 3"! What the heck?? We should be done with that!
Have a fantabulous day!

Time for my bed now.  Just popped on to have a quick read and see how everyone is going.  I didn't get home until nearly 7 pm tonight as i was at the accountants finalising out tax.  Good news.  We are both getting some back.  Always a good thing when you get money back from the tax man.

Weightloss has slowed right down so am now escalating my exercise and writing up my food intake.

Today I had:
Morning
Muesli 30g
1/4 cup skim milk
1 banana
Lunch
2 lettuce leaves
1/2 slice cheese
1 slice ham (shaved)
2 small grape tomatoes
1/2 lebanese cucumber
Snack
grapes (20)
Dinner
piece fish

Weather seems to be finally settling over here in Australia.  How are you all going with your cold spells?

Off to bed now. struggling to stay away. Thinking of you all.

Morning (Evening to you) Jules,

Still pretty cold here on the East Coast, temps in the teens, nothing I'm loving too much at this moment, but spring will surely arrive and I will be happy to be able to take my Roxie girl on the walks she loves so much. . .

Nice picture of you, finally to see a face with the post. . .  the weight does slow down and then it is about what we have learned and tweaking it to make forward progress and further on, staying the course, as in maintenance.  I am happy to say that I'm down 5 lbs. from the regain I've suffered since the fall of 2010, makes me very happy, the gym definitely was a factor for me.

Anyway, you take care.

Laureen


My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . .  It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . .  Laureen

Good morning Karen and OFF family...Happy Hump day for us people that are working today.

Well today is my 2nd day I woke up with no dizziness! Whhhhoooooo!! man it's cold outside and I'm still trying to warm up.

Went to the gym yesterday did my weight lifting class then stayed for the next class which was all out cardio. Kinda like Boot Camp! I could only take 15 minutes of that class and said "UNCLE"!!
Had to sit down to get my heart rate where it should be. Thought about going to the spin class but my body...I listened to it and headed home. Before I left the gym I ran into Kristi my Eating Coach and we got to gibber-jab for a few. Just seeing her lifts my spirits and she "gets me".
My body feels like I used my muscles but it's a "good feeling". I think I'm finally bouncing back, turning into my old crazy self and hopefully with all this cold I want to see some sunshine! LOL

No gym today after work, I have choir practice but have to be there early to practice "special music", my hubby and I will sing On Eagle's Wings on next Sunday.  Take Care! Debbie

Thank you Monica my buddy who is doing so well being sober. Very hard thing to do but I'm so proud of you girlfriend. My dad died at age 52 from a heart attack, he was a "recovered alcoholic" and counseled people with drugs and alcohol addictions. I was so proud of him changing his life and dedicating it to others.

Thanks for sending me the sunshine, if the sun really does come out here in Michigan today I'm gonna smile and think of you!

So many people here in Michigan are deficient in Vitamin D...everyone, not just the WLS people. My boss's D was so low she has to take 4 of them a day but she is finally feeling better. I told her she might even do better with dry D verses those capsules she is taking.

Hugs to you Monica, you are doing so great! Debbie

Thank you Debbie. My daughter Sara found out she too was WAY deficient in D. Has to take pills. She spends lots of time outside in the sun, but always uses sunscreen. MMM wonder if that sunscreen cuts the sun's vit D making rays. Don't know.
Oh cleaning the coffee pot and the RV smells like vinegar.....

Morning. Just got back from a nice walk with Yoda. He is really wonderful and gives us joy. He loves to cuddle and snuggle. He is walking well with his little harness we found at WM. He loves the window by our bed and the one in back of the RV. We went to the dog park after some errands yesterday and he had such fun. Many little dogs, but some really big ones too. They all played well together. Strange they are fine off leash, but once the leashes come on there are problems. Protection mode. One little guy 10 yrs old "taught" Yoda some dog park manners and that was too cut two watch. We got home and he pooped out, totally.
RV repair man came and insurance got all the info. I calmed down and hope to take it easy today. Should warm up and I need the pool and hot tub.
Have a good day all. Thanks for being here all these years. Sober 98 and so proud of me. Monica
