Hello everyone,
wow 1/2 way thru Oct. Hope everyone had a great weekend. Got a good walk in yesterday, but ate out 3 times w/ in the weekend. So need to buckle down a bit this weekend. Did ok but could have been better. Exercise was good this weekend but the water wasn't.( mom's water not great)

take care everyone
Lizzy

Good morning gang.
Nik...is your computer working yet?

Sorry I have been scarce, but between being soooooo busy at work and then when home, I have been trying to get the whole credit report thing in order, dealing with the kids, Kevin being home for a few more days and then gone for about a month, I am just tired.
Food has been good....but I am not going to WI tonight. Kevin leaves in the morning so I would like to be with him uninteruppted tonight..other than softball.
Oh well...gotta run and do checks.

hopefully...BBL
Have a great day.

Good Monday! I am making it here can y'all believe it?
I didn't get to go shopping by myself yesterday, DH had to go to work, which is good that was all overtime. I did get a 3 mile walk in last night. That felt great.
Lizzy: have a great one!
Jen: hope you get your gredit report thing straightened out! Have a great day.

Morning chicks...quick check in while I am doing some emails, etc. I had an awesome week and got 3 days of walking in. I had w/i this morning and was down 6 lbs. I know that it is probably some fluid loss in there so may see a bad w/i come next week. I have my lunch in the fridge and sticking to my guns again this week. Went to Wallyworld yesterday and got some fresh fruit and some veggies and went ahead and made several nights worth of meals yesterday so I am not tempting to screw up my plan on fast food or quickie dinners.

Afternoon Loves!

Hope everyone had a nice weekend. We took the boys to a pumpkin patch and did the whole hayride thing. It was nice they had witches in the woods handing out candy and telling stories. It's still odd for me, we never had hayrides in Jersey! LOL Eating was okay, gonna give the less cardio more strength training a try. (((HUGS TO ALL))))

Lizzy~Weekend doesn't sound too bad...good for you on getting the walking in!!

Jen~Happy quality & bonding time with Kevin

Cheryl~Sistah!! Good job on getting that walk in..make sure you still get to shop though!!

Terry~YOU ROCK WOMAN!! You are doing soo awesome, I'm proud of you!

Sue~I probably could have seen you, you were so close! I'm glad you had a nice time with the family!

WOOOOOHOOOOOO TERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So Kevin leaves in the am and I am blue. In a way glad (the tornado look of my house will be gone) but still sad. He thinks he will be back in time for football on Saturday, which would be good since it is Devan's Senior night.
The he will leave again on Tuesday.....EMILY....is Jason at Dresden? That is where Kevin is going next Tuesday. Let me know....you could scare the crap out of him for me! hehehehe

Liz- I am with you....they never had the hayrides or anything on Long Island either. Then again, I live like such a hick now. LOL

Cheryl- Nice on your walk! I can't wait to start exercising again. I know that will help me.

Lizzy- So what is the countdown until mom leaves for sis'?

Hey kids,
Quick fly by for me today. I'm back and not working as hard as I should be...very distracted today. Need to get my work flow back.

My realtor just emailed me that the sellers are expecting an answer from their bank within the next few days-so that's good news-at least we'll know, right?

Engaging in a serious re-commitment. Bought 70 bucks worth of fruits and veggies yesterday at the market, and the whole house is going to slim down, including ds...if it kills me. I've been reading Eat to Live by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. Nice light nutritional reading for the plane, lol. I guess I needed some reminders of what's right for the body and what's not. I've been questioning whether I could lose weight as a vegetarian. Last time I was really successful, I was eating meat, chicken only. I just needed a reminder that I can do it, and it is possible. One does not get fat eating fruits and veggies, no matter how much...it's all the other stuff that makes you fat. So it's back to basics for me...fruits and veggies, beans and tofu. I can do this.

Hope everyone's having a good day. I gotta get back to work.

Sue

Need some vibes sent my way....have to work the concession stand at the football game in 45 min!!! I AM GOING TO STICK TO MY PLAN!!!!!! I CAN DO THIS!!!

This daily check-in thing you guys have here is really nice! I can see where it could motivate. You folks know of anyone in need of a WL buddy?
