Good Morning Girlies...


It's been a pretty good week, spending extra time with DH since he's home for the week from his "V"! I've been OP all week, however not getting in the water that I need. Big push for that today. Doing groceries this afternoon and hopefully washing the floor AGAIN!!

Hope everyone has a great OP day!

TGIF Ladies! Time to get those behinds up and out of bed! Last night we went out for dinner with my sil and her husband and I'm pretty proud of my choices. sil has been making noise for chinese for a while so I finally gave in last night since I knew that I had the flex points. I chose chicken and brocolli, had a taste of everyone else's and was pleasently surprised when I went to do up the points last night and found out that chicken and broccoli is Core! so I ended up doing much better then I had initally thought. Then I took Troy over to visit our new appliances..lol Unfortuantely he was tired and wasn't near as enthused as I wanted him to be. But he did agree to do the floor this weekend so on Saturday we'll be laying new linoleum in the kitchen. As much as we both want tile we are going to wait until the kitchen redo to make that upgrade. But anything will be better then what we have now... I think it's the linoleum that's origianl to the house and the house is a 60's home. That'll make for a fun weekend for us. Actually, I'm excited.

Lynn, enjoy time with Dh! We miss you on the boards with us.. it's not the same without your bubbly personality!

Nina, Hey there girly!! how are you today? big plans for the day?

I'm going to get my menu posted and then I'll be back.

[WnderLander]

Ms. Esther, good news about Gerry! I can imagine that was a great relief for you.

Kat, We're coming to your house for dinner!.. that sounds yummy.

[WnderLander]

My 3 reasons for losing weight:

1. A healthier heart
2. A happier heart
3. Again, let's revisit the belt issue!..lol

What's on my plate today:

B
Turkey bacon
cream of wheat pudding
w/ rasberries and blueberries
sf/ff latte

L
shredded wheat'n bran
banana
ff milk

d
Big salad at Whole Foods
mixed fruit

snacks
soy cheese
pear

Inspirational thought for the day:

When you get to a plateau, think of it as a landing on the stairway to your goal. And maintenance is a lifelong plateau, so a bit of "rehearsal" for maintenance isn't the worst thing in the world.

Good morning everyone and TGIF! I am super happy today since it is my day off from the gym!

Lynn - good to hear you are enjoying your time with DH. Have fun washing that floor!

Nina - good morning!

Lara - great job with the chinese food last night. DH and I are going to PF Changs this evening, so it's chinese food for me tonight too. It's my cheat meal for the week so I'm not gonna sweat it too much. Have fun with the kitchen floor this weekend!

OK, I'll be back to post my menu in a sec.

Good Morning Buddies,

Sorry I went MIA yesterday, but it is so busy here at work!! The full moon brings out all kinds of people. I am about ready to hog tie all the officers in our area so they can't bring in work for me. I stayed OP yesterday and got in all my water. I feel in control again and will continue to journal.

Here is my plan for the day:

Breakfast ~ Shredded Wheat, milk
Snacks ~ apple, granola bar
Lunch ~ Soup, fruit
Supper ~ WW meal, squash, mixed berries with yogurt

Carson has a basketball game tonight here in town. I will get some pictures. Karlee said I can't take any pictures of her tonight because she has a big pimple on her chin!!!! I think I will take a closeup!!!!

I will be back with personals.

[Nina123]

Morning Jules, Lara, and Tonia!!


Not much to say, just hello and hope you all have a great day!

[Nina123]

Esther, Good News for Gerry! Now you can enjoy your trip. :)

[WnderLander]

I see that it's going to be another slow day today with everyone so busy!

Tonia, how's your day going so far?

Nina, what are you up to today?

Jules, have things slowed down a little for you today?

Okay, back to work for me.

[TexasT]

Hello! Just got back from my urology appointment. I'm going to have a cystoscopy and some other things I can't pronounce done on December 26. Nice Christmas present right? HA!

Lara - don't go to PF Changs if you have few points or actually if it's not a cheat meal. While it can be done, it is extremely difficult to find something OP on their menu. Check out their menu on their website. You can get the nutritional information and it's not pretty.

Jules - take a close up then blow it up and put it on the fridge! HA!

Well, I'm hungry now. Guess I'll start heating up my lunch. BBL!

[WnderLander]

Tonia, They waisted no time in getting this done... that's a good thing. I have faith that it will all be fine. I'll have to check out the nutritionals.. it's going to be hard with that, then Christmas eve and Christmas day... but it can be done.. right? I think it'll be okay... I'm bound and determined to get through the holidays wihtout a gain.

[WnderLander]

Tonia, I just went to their website and they have a Training Table Menu... it gives all of the nutritionals for the items and it's supposed to be for people who are in training... the chicken and black bean sauce would be core... interesting. They also have a few salmon dishes that sound very good.

[TexasT]

WOW, I never say that training menu before. Thank goodness! I just love that place but never go because of the calories and fat unless it was a cheat meal. And even then only once every few months. I'll have to check that out!!

[WnderLander]

There is a training menu and a gluten free menu... pretty cool. So I'll have to make sure I ask for it when we go.

[TexasT]

I guess everyone packed up and left early today. Guess it's my turn now. I'm outta here for the night and probably the weekend. I hope you all have a great one! Talk to you Monday.
