hi carla, sorry i havent been around. my husband put a order of protection on me over 2 weeks ago. so i havent been on the computer. i still am eating small amounts. i know monday i was 149 pounds. when i went to the doctors. so i'.m doing good. we went to court today and the judge dropped the order of protection.  but at this time i still want to go my seperate ways. so i will be still getting my own apt on june 1st. where i am staying she has a computer but i dont go on it much since its windows 98 and very slow... so i come to the library to check my mail. i am still drinking my protein shakes and once in a while a power crunch bar. just wanted to let you know i am ok, anita

sorry for all you are going through. Beware of the food monster with all the stress and upheaval! May God grant you His peace and protection through this time.

Hey girl.. hope everything is ok with you.  take care of yourself and know that we are their with you.  When you get your new place and start your new adventure remember we will be there to support you and help you keep that ship sailing.. Big hug girl Carla

two days ago was 130.8 and today 132. Ok, say hi to water weight! One good thing, I put on those size 9 pants I bought for work a few weeks ago. And yes they are too big. I can pull them completely off my body zipped and buttoned! Bought size 5 capris at DOTS (jr clothes) and they are fun to wear and still wearing small in dresses, although shirts I usually like the med. Heading in for a stressful weekend, but relying on God and many prayers of my friends here and at home. Thank you all for your sweet words of encouragement....I am so blessed. Going to walk later tonight and watch the grand kids. Mother's days coming and that will be fun too. Think I will buy a pair of lime green capris. Looking out of the box a bit. I don't usually wear green. I'm a pink, blue, (winter color) girl. You know the kind that likes pink purses? Anyway, have a great weekend all! Oh, kudos to you who maintained! Woo-hoo!

You are too cute...I was tickled reading your post here!  I dunno why...Lime green is my color for certain! (In tops and accessories) My fav color in the world...GREEN!  Can you tell?  hehe I had to say I tried on a few different colors myself recently....I dunno what it is about pants...I cannot look down on my legs and live with any other color besides, denim, black, khaki or brown and army green!  LOL No flowers, or polka dots or crazy designs...I just cannot do it.  LOL   Purses...That's the same as my legs...They have to be nuetral colors or I feel like a neon sign...Yet my tops can be as bright and crazy as can be...Maybe psychologically I am trying to not attract attention to by lower half....Hmmmm??? Anyway...this made me really thoughtful...It seems you are ready for lime green and attention on the bottom half and that sweetie, is soooo great!  Good for you!   Hugs, Anita

oh yea, I am into shoes. Got an awesome pair or yellow with silver spike heels, and pink with silver heels. I tend to carry the same purse, but I am a bright color person. Sparkels, etc. I think y ou need to get over to a store like DOTS, its a 10-18$ store, and they have all sizes. Styles are trendy, but not expensive that you can't get something and wear it to death and not feel bad about it. Perhaps your goal is go get thosse lime green pants...or perhaps a lime green pair of shoes??? Sometimes when we go out of our comfort zone we see ourselves different. For years, I'd never wear trendy shoes because my legs were so fat. I didn't wear pants because size 22 butts are rather big and it was depressing. And colorful pants....no I don't think so. Break out a bit girlfriend, spend 18$ and if you can't do that, just go try it on and enjoy the fact that you can wear this stuff now and...hey, what do you know, it looks pretty good! Thanks for your sweet words!

Shoes I can do...Heels are not my favorite things to wear unless I will be at a party and can sit more than stand or walk...Otherwise...I'm going to comfort or kitten heels!  Flip flops and jeans are my scene!  It's funny though, my daughters friends tell me all the time that I have the coolest collection of flip flops!  I really do!  LOL  I like my newest silver ballet slippers...They look just like tin foil though...It's shocking to look down when I have them on!  My hubby makes fun of them... I used to be a "sparkly" flashy, big hair kinda girl (I'll always be a Jersey Girl at heart)...I'm thinking it might be time to add a little Jersey Girl flavor back into my jeans and tees and flip flops...My daughter tries to keep me from looking my age and I honestly have no idea how to dress my age without feeling like a easter egg or a crazy puzzle piece with all these strange retro designs and WHAT is up with these polyester dresses?  I need materials that breathe!   There is a Dots near my doctors office...I'll pop in there next time I'm out that way!  I like smaller shops MUCH better than crowded shopping malls...
