Happy September, everyone!

Now that the fall is almost here, I am buckling down & getting back to business as far as my eating habits go. I've let too many "legal treats" slip into my WOL and I've paid the price. I have joined the 12 week transformation challenge and I am determined to keep calories as well as carb down each day.

Mary- I read you last post. Congrats on your continued success.

Should we plan a get toether soon? Any thoughts?

tortpoint · 09-05-2004, 05:20 PM

I have to get serious . Just got back from sisters BBQ so no more excuses.
Hi to everyone.

PiDevil · 09-07-2004, 08:10 AM

Hi Tort - Its kind of lonely here. Glad you checked in. Hope everything's fine with you.

tortpoint · 09-07-2004, 09:42 AM

I need to get down to busines. I didn't lose a thing all summer. I've joined the Thanksgiving challenge on the Century club. I had to many big weddings that lasted 2 days each plus numerous other excuses. I am the type that says I will havejustone and end up eating the whole box/bag. I'm compulsive. So far today
I've been good.

PiDevil · 09-07-2004, 09:50 AM

I joined the 12 week transformation challenge. I feel like it will get me back on track. Trying to keep calories down to 1200 or so and total carbs at 20. So far, so good.

kitnmom · 09-07-2004, 11:58 AM

hello just checking in hope to make the gathering someday!

slimdays · 09-07-2004, 01:01 PM

Hello Friends:

I am back from the cottage now. It feels good to be home again. I love having my computer back. I make the sacrifice to live without it because I love the beach and the woods and the peace and quiet of the country.

So I am getting on board to see when anyone is getting together. I have had the Cajun Blue Cheese Bacon Onion Steakburger on a Ceasar salad at the 99 and it is yummy! Very flavorful.

As far as getting serious. I need to be with ppl who are on that track and hope it rubs off onto me. Any diet works if I stick to it. I know that. It is the sticking to it that is the problem.

I have been walking daily and using a stepometer. I hope to increase the amount as I go along but at least I have started. The fancy pedometer I had never did work right. This inexpensive stepometer is the best thing. It just counts your steps. No setting and no measuring your stride or any of that. I love it.

Hope to see y'all soon.

PiDevil · 09-08-2004, 06:35 AM

Hey Slim, welcome back!

Slim - I am back on track (at least for the past week) - I lost 4.5 pounds. I joined the 12 week Transformation Challenge that started 9/1. I am an JIG company - check it out on the Century Club board. I have committed to this and will see it out.

I am keeping calories around 1200, carbs no more than 20 (total not net) and have re-started an exercise program which includes weight lifting. I have also eliminated all LC foods such as breads, muffins, ice cream & candy. I am also making sure I have all my water daily. So far so good.

Did that motivate you, yet?

kitnmom - hope to meet you someday soon.

MaryMary · 09-09-2004, 11:03 AM

Hi everyone,

I forgot to check for a new thread for the month. Sorry.

I in the JIG Company with PiDevil, so we can motivate each other.

I am up for a luncheon some weekend.

On the 18th of September I am tied up in a free clothing exchange at the Main Street Methodist Church in Nashua. It is sponsored by Overeaters Anonymous. It runs from 8:30 am to 12 noon. Bring your old ones and pick up some new ones - FALL and WINTER only. A friend who can't attend had me pick up clothes she is donating so my trunk is full. I will drop them off that morning. I am going through my closet and getting rid of the 22's, 24's, 26's and 28s. I bought a 20W shorts on vacation a few weeks ago at Dress Barn. They are a good quality and so comfortable and are now hanging. So they will be in the exchange next spring. Remeber, it is all free. Last spring they had sizes from 2 up to 34.

Have a good day.

IdreamofLean · 09-13-2004, 11:27 AM

Hi all!!

i am up for a Sunday lunch any weekend in Sept/ Oct. Maybe we could set a date for Smokey Bones or ?? . I will be making a Trek to Nashua to go to Trader Joes and LC heaven in the next month or so.

Anyone interested in Sunday the 26th?? Tentative date and flexible?? I will have to recheck my schedule.

Suggestions?

PiDevil · 09-14-2004, 05:41 AM

Hi, Idream, long time no see!

I think I'm free on the 27th. I am pretty busy during the month of October however. I like Smokey Bones also but I'm open to other suggestions. Anyone?

IdreamofLean · 09-14-2004, 10:28 AM

I am open to anywhere, I just chose SB because it is right off the exit and across from Trader Joes (my destination in Nashua)

I'm OPen to anything

slimdays · 09-14-2004, 10:33 AM

Just to clarify.... are we talking about September 27, a monday?
I vote for The Ninety Nine somewhere. SB is okay but I have a favorite thing I like at the 99.

okay, I will wait to see if we really are talking about a Monday. That is fine with me if we are. Just we usually don't do that.

I am walking more since I have been home and I have lost 6 of the pounds I brought home with me so far. Yay!

See y'all soon, Carol = Slimdays

MaryMary · 09-14-2004, 10:52 AM

I can do it on the Sunday, the 26th. Smokey Bones sounds good. I have to go to Trader Joes too. There is a 99 around Exit 7 off Route 3 in Nashua and a Ruby Tuesday as well. What time? 1 pm or 1: 30 pm?

Let me know what you all decide.

PiDevil · 09-14-2004, 11:26 AM

Sorry that was my fault, I did mean Sunday the 26th!

IdreamofLean · 09-14-2004, 07:59 PM

I like the 99 too. Either is fine with me-

1:00 is a better time-gives me more time to shop afterwards.

BornLoser · 09-15-2004, 06:54 AM

I'm up for breakfast or lunch - on either a sat or sun - the 26th is fine too. I like smokey bones better than the 99.

Jesi

PiDevil · 09-17-2004, 05:45 AM

If I had to vote between the 99 & Smokey Bones, I would take Smokey Bones. I have several 99's in my area but no SB's! I just love their ribs and they have large portions of fresh veggies.

I was reading a post someone wrote about Ruby Tuesday's. We were going to go there once but never made it. Is there one in the vacinity of SB's?

MaryMary · 09-17-2004, 05:17 PM

Ruby Tuesday's in on the same highway in Nashua just on the north side. You would take Exit 7W and it is just a few hundred yards on the right. A group of us from Nashua and Keene got together there last Feb 26th. They have a nice salad bar, and you can get a 'call ahead' type of reservation. I called ahead a couple hours and told them we had 10 people coming and they had the seating for us.

IdreamofLean · 09-22-2004, 04:14 PM

Hi All,
Would it be possible to postpone the gathering until another day?? If not, It looks like I will have to join you all next month. DD just received a Birthday Party invitation and I have to go with her. I was really looking forward to an afternoon to myself.

tortpoint · 09-22-2004, 05:07 PM

I won a $1000 gift certificate for the NH liquor store. I would be willing to sell it for $800. Great deal to stock your bar or to buy Christmas gifts. PM me or mag42@comcast.net

MaryMary · 09-23-2004, 09:40 AM

Is everyone getting together this Sunday, and if so where and what time?

PiDevil · 09-23-2004, 10:43 AM

I can make it! Once October comes things get very difficult until arounf Thanksgiving. I will go to any of the above mentioned places but my order of preference is Ruby Tuesdays (because I haven't tried their LC menu), Smokey Bones and 99. But I'm open to anything. Anytime is OK. Perhaps on a Sunday, the earlier the better.

PiDevil · 09-26-2004, 05:11 AM

Well I guess since nobody answered, I'll make other plans!

MaryMary · 09-26-2004, 07:33 AM

PiDevil, since no one replied, I made other plans as well.

PiDevil · 09-27-2004, 06:36 AM

I could be available for any early-ish (noon time) lunch on Sat 10/2. I would just need to be home by midafternoon.

BornLoser · 09-27-2004, 10:54 AM

I'm available on 10/10 for breakfast or maybe 10/9 for lunch. Anyone around these days?

PiDevil · 09-27-2004, 11:20 AM

No, Bornloser, Im not available any of those days. October is really hard for me. Perhaps at the end of the month on 10/30 or 10/31.

slimdays · 10-23-2004, 09:39 PM

Do we have a thread for October? I couldn't find it. So the Red Sox beat the Yankees!!!! I have waited a long time for that. Now they are in the World Series with the Cardinals. I have waited even longer for that. In 1967 I lost $50 betting on the Red Sox. I was young and foolish. I never bet on them again.

So when are we meeting up again? Did I miss one? Too many questions huh.

IdreamofLean · 10-24-2004, 03:08 PM

I don't think there is an OCt thread.

WE are due for a get-together.

I have a difficult time commiting unti the last minute. 3 kids with 3 schedules make it hard to plan too far ahead.

Sundays are better than Sat for me though.

Where is everybody????

Now they are in the World Series with the Cardinals. I have waited even longer for that. In 1967 I lost $50 betting on the Red Sox. I was young and foolish. I never bet on them again. So when are we meeting up again? Did I miss one? Too many questions huh.

WE are due for a get-together. I have a difficult time commiting unti the last minute. 3 kids with 3 schedules make it hard to plan too far ahead. Sundays are better than Sat for me though. Where is everybody????
