Mom2Daisy · 01-13-2007, 06:57 AM

Mornin' Folks!
Holdin' steady at 213. I've not been cheating a bit! Now I want a woosh.

I usually don't count the .5 on the scales. But today I'll make that exception LOL I was 213.5 now I'm just 213.0. But for this rigid 7 days of QWL, I really want to see some staggering numbers

. I may be eating too little. No hunger whatsoever! I read Cherri's thread about being in starvation mode

I just ate three eggs for breakfast vs. my usual 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. We'll see how it goes . I'm gonna do this!! One way or another.
Going to work on the house again today.

That we will get the cabinets done soon.

Doit - It's so good to see you again!

Melly - Make a snowman for me

or lick an icicle as the case may be. The most we've had this winter is a frozen mud puddle or two that thaws out before noon.

Walkingwoman

Pam - So glad you are feeling better. With your determination and 'dead' sweet teeth

, you'll be back down in no time.

Livvi - Belated

Maybe YOU could make the snowman for me

Michelle - You too have a great determination....that dilly bar will be history in no time. KUTGW

::::Running out of time:::::

and encouragement to everyone else.

Melly · 01-13-2007, 07:31 AM

Angela it will be an ice cycle.......here is what is going on in my town

http://www.ky3.com/

HappyFace · 01-13-2007, 07:52 AM

Well, it's still snowing here in beautiful Utah!

Melly- I can't believe that story, OH, my goodness!!! How wonderful that those boys are alive and well. that is sooo scary.

Karen- We are still waiting to hear about Little Madelyn Grace's arrival.

I had a lazy day yesterday on my Birthday. Just stayed home and probably do the same today. I love these kind of days.

Be back later

livvi

walkingwoman · 01-13-2007, 09:48 AM

I'm giving this another try today. I've got everything I need, I just need to do it!

I plan on staying busy today too. I am going to do some house reorganization stuff and watch a few movies. That should keep me entertained. I told my dh he is on his own foodwise so that I don't have the temptation of the foods he will be enjoying today

I'm going to treadmill for 30 minutes too.

walkingwoman · 01-13-2007, 10:37 AM

Checking in and posting my food to be accountable today.
1 pork loin top loin boneless chop

Crohnie · 01-13-2007, 11:01 AM

Day 173~~ 162

That Dilly Bar is making me pay. It was so worth it
I will up my water today

B~ eggs/lc ketchup
D~sashimi--mostly Tuna and Salmon
Water and green tea

today will be a yummy steak

GApeach23 · 01-13-2007, 12:18 PM

Hello my fellow Jewels.

My weight stayed the same, which is a miracle, we ended up being at the hospital for 14 hours.........all and all Susan and I made great food choices and stayed on plan, the thing I didn't get much of was water. I started off with 64 ounces of the good stuff then switched to diet drinks cause I got tired of waiting on the bathrooms.........

MISS MADELYN GRACE entered the world at 7:03 pm, she weighed 7 pounds 14 ounces and was 19.25 inches long. She is so PURDY!!!!! Beautiful skin. We are so glad she is here and healthy. We've already been up to the hospital today and are going back this evening.

Michele Back away from the Dilly Bar's and no one will get hurt.....

Walkingwoman Stay away from all food porn.........

I remember following threads from Gentlewynd she always had interesting posts. She's had a rough time..........

Angela I count every little .5 pound, if I had the scales that counted it in smaller increments I'd count those too.......

, Also on the starvation mode, I use to buy into that theory, but no more. How do you think anorexics get so thin? And people that have their stomach's stapled usually eat 500 calories a day for a long time. I feel that you'd have to use up all of your excess calories (fat) in order to go into starvation mode. I once added my extra pounds up and multiplied that by 3, 500 calories and I can go 1.7 months without eating anything before my body would start the "starvation mode". So don't eat if you aren't hungry!!!!! Dr. Karen says so......

Melly I heard about the two boys after I got home from the hospital last night..........what a miracle...........

Pam Hi, how are you feeling?

THANKS TO EVERYONE ON THE CONGRATS..........IT FEELS AWESOME, JEANS ARE FITTING SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!

Hope I didn't miss anyone.

Laura If you are lurking.........hope you and your son are doing alright, you are in my thoughts and prayers..........

ETA: Hiya livvi, how was your birthday?

Mom2Daisy · 01-13-2007, 09:58 PM

Found this little bugger a little late for Karen going to onederland.....BUT, Michelle has been working hard to get to the 150's......We could all start cheering for her

It worked for Karen!!

Let's go Michelle, Let's go

Y'all would be sick of me if I actually visited one of those smiley web sites. I only get ideas from other posts at this point. Just wait till I'm done with this house and I have more time on my hands.

doit · 01-14-2007, 12:18 AM

Dropping by....

Melly... be safe... girl... and keep warm.. smile..

Karen congrats on the baby and keeping on track...at the hospital..
this is a new approach to food... I just went to a New England Culinary Institute School Bakery for coffee... and left with only coffee...it is constant daily choices that makes and keeps me thin...

Michele... hold on... and I so do not want to know what Dilly is about..

I do love you all for sparing us the food porn... I love a clean thread...smile

And do not participate where it goes on.... way too upsetting..

running out...

Still feeling fat in my 4's.... at 120... must get off 5.... and get rid of the spare tire...

Hey Debi, I would venture to guess that the hamburger patties from Wendy's at 10pm plus the sugar free gum may have done it. Those hamburger patties from any fast food place are so high in sodium. If I ate that anytime of the day I would have been up more like 3 pounds........salt is a terrible thing most of the time.

Pour on the water..........128 ounces or so and it should be off in no time.

Just my opinion........

GApeach23 · 01-15-2007, 02:45 PM

Hey, hey, hey everybody!!!!!!!

Weight holding at 199.5, it was actually up a little yesterday.......no doubt the salt from eating out at the hospital and the fact I wasn't able to get my water in as usual.

Hoping that it will be down tomorrow but if not, no worries........STILL CHEAT FREE............IT'S A MIRACLE!!!!!!!!

livvi You are so close, you can do it....although it does get tougher the closer you get to goal.

Angela

Better late than never on the cheerleaders.........

Pam I know you'll get that 5 pounds off now that you are feeling better.

Hello to everyone else................

Hopefully Susan will be able to get the pictures of Madelyn Grace on in a couple of days......she was off Friday and today so she'll probably be pretty busy tomorrow.

Later Taters!!!!!!!!

DEBI IN OHIO · 01-16-2007, 02:20 AM

just wanted to add that the Burgers were eaten so late at night because I work 3rd shift.....I didnt go to bed until 8 hours after I had eaten them. Just wanted to clear that up, since I didnt weigh until 15 hours later

idioglossic · 01-16-2007, 04:47 AM

Good morning...

Deb.. do not worry about small fluctuations on the scale... keep cheat free..

Karen and Livvi

Michele... you may have to cut back on protein to make that scale move...
are you doing portion control?? how tall are you... I know as I approached goal
Bonnie from Sayonara Carbonara told me to back off the big beef portions

I reluctantly did and the weight started dropping off... I also exchanged 1 meal for plain yogurt non fat... which also helped the weight go and I learned to love it 's flavor and texture...

Melly, still frozen in... did not see the news yesterday..

Yes sodium is the enemy..... KEEP AWAY.....

Running out..

This morning... skipping B just having coffee
L skinless chicken
D yogurt non fat or ricotta

Feeling thinner today... ahhhh nice feeling..

Hugs to all

SusieQ12 · 01-16-2007, 06:35 AM

Good morning everyone!

I am back again, hanging my head in shame. I cheated AGAIN. I don't know why I can't get my act together! I am trying not to beat myself up about it too much. Today is another day and I am back on plan. I'm so sick of being fat. You would think that would be good motivation, but apparently it's not for me.

Anyway, enough of my pity party. I am on plan today and I am not going to cheat. I know I can do this. I just have to focus and get my head in the right place.

I will come back later for personals and I do have some pictures of Madelyn to show you all, but I am swamped this morning after not being here Friday. Madelyn had to be admitted back into the hospital early this morning for fever and dehydration. THey are doing tests to try and figure out what's wrong with her. Karen can give more details. She was with them last night before they took her. She is doing okay this morning, just still waiting on test results.

I also changed my stats to reflect my new weight. I have to be accountable.

slatman · 01-16-2007, 07:56 AM

Morning Jewels!
B: water
L: Burger no bun
D: Meat & sml veg salad

idioglossic · 01-16-2007, 08:07 AM

Susan... welcome back..

Remember you are cheating yourself out of being thin...

What you swallow you WILL WEAR.

Treat yourself to thin, only you can do it..

Hugs

idioglossic · 01-16-2007, 08:09 AM

I have mentioned my friend's, 16 year old son, Sammy here... he came down with leukemia just a few short months ago...

He is now in the arms of Jesus... the angels came yesterday afternoon..

Amazing Grace... how sweet it is...

GApeach23 · 01-16-2007, 09:07 AM

198 this morning.......finally a small whoosh.

I'm so tired up very late with my sister and little Madelyn. I think she is just dehydrated but she's so small and so young the doctors want to make sure she isn't ill with something else. They are going to do a spinal tap later and that should be the last test. She will be in the hospital at least 48 hours.

Everyone please keep little Madelyn in your prayers.

Pam Hugs to you and your friend..........

(Sammy).

Daniel How have you been?

Chello to all that follows........will be going to the hospital later on.

I know as I approached goal Bonnie from Sayonara Carbonara told me to back off the big beef portions I reluctantly did and the weight started dropping off... I also exchanged 1 meal for plain yogurt non fat... which also helped the weight go and I learned to love it 's flavor and texture... Melly, still frozen in... did not see the news yesterday.. Yes sodium is the enemy..... KEEP AWAY..... Running out.. This morning... skipping B just having coffee L skinless chicken D yogurt non fat or ricotta Feeling thinner today... ahhhh nice feeling.. Hugs to all

I am back again, hanging my head in shame. I cheated AGAIN. I don't know why I can't get my act together! I am trying not to beat myself up about it too much. Today is another day and I am back on plan. I'm so sick of being fat. You would think that would be good motivation, but apparently it's not for me. Anyway, enough of my pity party. I am on plan today and I am not going to cheat. I know I can do this. I just have to focus and get my head in the right place. I will come back later for personals and I do have some pictures of Madelyn to show you all, but I am swamped this morning after not being here Friday. Madelyn had to be admitted back into the hospital early this morning for fever and dehydration. THey are doing tests to try and figure out what's wrong with her. Karen can give more details. She was with them last night before they took her. She is doing okay this morning, just still waiting on test results. I also changed my stats to reflect my new weight. I have to be accountable. __________________ Susan Last edited by SusieQ12 : 01-16-2007 at 06:58 AM.

I'm so tired up very late with my sister and little Madelyn. I think she is just dehydrated but she's so small and so young the doctors want to make sure she isn't ill with something else. They are going to do a spinal tap later and that should be the last test. She will be in the hospital at least 48 hours. Everyone please keep little Madelyn in your prayers. Pam Hugs to you and your friend.......... (Sammy). Daniel How have you been? Chello to all that follows........will be going to the hospital later on.
