Message to my buddies...I'm in "Onederland"!!!!!!!!
I did it, finally, I got on the scales this morning and it finally said 199!!!!!! I'm so excited...I've been stuck at 205 forever so last week I really kicked up my exercise, started doing a cardio session AND a walking session every day with only one day off and really stayed diligent with my water and protein intake, watching the carbs closer than ever...slowly the scale started dropping a pound every couple of days and so this morning...voila!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm excited and yes, tooting my own horn a bit. I have really struggled with carbs lately, Melinda has helped me through this, thanks girl....so this is a victory for me in more ways than one.
Now, on another note...I got accused of being anti-social yesterday by a friend, you know who you are, lol, because I haven't been posting like I normally do...well, no I haven't but it's not because I'm antisocial, it's because I have been in the middle of finals. As most of you know, I am working on my Master's and while other finals are tough, no doubt, most Master's finals are in essay format and have to be at least twenty pages long...so as you can see, I've been super busy. Not to mention the added exercise and the end of the year activities at Savannah's school.
I'm taking my last final online this morning...Advanced Statistics...at least it's not an essay but it will be lots of calculations but I will be so glad to get it done. Once that is done, I am off until the first week of June when summer classes start. Thank God they are all online...I won't be tied to a classroom schedule.
Well, I'm off to take this last final, wish me luck everyone!
Paula, good luck with your 5K.
Sheila, feel better soon.
Melinda, aren't you glad you don't have to go work the store...sleep in!
Susan, how did the suit fit?
Misty, forgot to tell you that my friend loved the clothes and is wearing them every day.
Everyone else,...have a great weekend!
Hot Dang!!!!!!!!
Welcome to onederland!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who accused you of being anti-social during finals week?!?!?! Lemme at em! I'll smack em good with your Statistics book, that'll teach em. Make sure you have fresh batteries in your calculator. Nothing worse than a dead calculator during a final.
I did get the suit. Thank you!!! It fits beautifully. I plan on wearing it tomorrow and will have hubby take a picture to post.

I'm so glad it fit and that you like it! Can't wait to see the pics. Tomorrow is homecoming at my church and I was trying clothes on and I realized I don't have any dresses that fit...they are all too big or too small still. I guess I'm going to put on a bigger one and belt it!
By the way, thanks for keeping the board posted on Sheila!
HI Kym, You are not anti-social. I've been in your shoes only I was in a classroom and you don't have a lot of private time to study when you have children on top of it. Don't let anyone tell you differently. I am excited for you going for your Masters. Onederland is so much better. It's all down hill after that. Keep up on your regiment of water, protein, and excercise. I wish I could do the same, can't wait to get the staples out of my tummy. It's hard to find clothes that I can wear that won't rub on the staples, and sitting is hard to do at times.
You hang in there and hope to see you in a couple of weeks. Love ya, Kathy
