A Diamond in the Rough -- Candy's Journey - Page 29

I love the shirt.

Tippy Toes · 04-07-2007, 08:37 AM

Candy, sounds like you will have fun at your event! That is something I would attend! I loved that you are fitting into smaller clothes and this WOE is agreeing with you!

You may well be in for a surprise when you buy shoes... Yes, I have lost a few shoe sizes, believe it or not. BTW, happy Easter tomorrow! I am busy today preparing dishes to bake tomorrow. We are having ham (I had to really check labels--some were 3 carbs per serving and some 1), smoked turkey breast, Linda Sues almost loaded baked potato casserole (my fav!), a pumpkin suffle, deviled eggs and homemade lc peanut butter cups for desert. Lol, I am back to siggy weight just in time (close enough at 158.5). This dinner, although all lc, will push me up a bit but it is a holiday. What are you having?

SunaBee · 04-07-2007, 08:51 AM

GoOd MoRnInG Candy!!!!!

Hey, I talked to Jen yesterday and she said it was snowing in Canton.

She said she thought it was apple blossoms hitting the windshield at first.

Did you get any snow???

Edwards20 · 04-07-2007, 09:15 AM

Thanks Lisa.
Tippy Toes, congrats on the stat weight

and the menu sounds delish !!

SunaBee ... I know when we left the bar at 1AM this morning, it had been snowing heavily since 11PM. It looked like a blizzard. However, it would melt as soon as it hit any surface.

Sadler_Girl · 04-07-2007, 09:18 AM

OMG! It is going down to the 40's tonight here.

Edwards20 · 04-07-2007, 09:24 AM

OMG, that is cold for FLA. Bundle up sister.

Sadler_Girl · 04-07-2007, 09:30 AM

Also, I got my outfit for Steeplechase AND it was only $40

(Monet, you'd be proud). Wound up getting those 18/20 khaki capris. The top has almost a paisley print with lavendar, khaki an black it is trimmed in lavendar. It's one of those flowy kind of shirts. Now, to just find some shoes.

Here is the shirt:

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SHIRT..

AND YES.. I AM PROUD HEHE..

PURPLE IS MY FAV COLOR.. SO.. I DO LUB IT

Low Carb Mommy · 04-07-2007, 10:27 AM

I couldn't get on here yesterday! I could go anywhere else on the Internet but here! I was so frustrated and missing everyone. I just finished posting my update.

I am so proud of you about the jeans! I had the same thing happen to me. I slipped on a pair yesterday to go to the grocery store and I could have pulled them off without unbuttoning them!

Hope you have a blessed Easter!

Sadler_Girl · 04-07-2007, 05:32 PM

cool beans

Edwards20 · 04-07-2007, 06:12 PM

I will have to see if I can remember it, I think it automatically signs in. The MIL uses it too, so you could be chatting with her.

But she likes to chat too.

Beth, thanks for stopping by and glad you're back. I tried on an old pair of my 18's to no avail

.... I think these are probably a 22/24 and that they are even using vanity sizing in Plus sizes

seriouschick · 04-07-2007, 06:39 PM

Candy, that shirt is gorgeous! Great find!

My full Metal shirt is a size smaller than my InuYasha and it is bigger on me.

Happy Easter! Got into those peanut butter cups last night...grrr...but only saw .5 gain.

I consider myself lucky since I ate 2 of them and they are each the size of a muffin, lol!

Giving the rest away today. Isn't lc great? I can only imagine if they were real peanut butter sugar cups the damage I would have done. Gotta luv Splenda!

Edwards20 · 04-08-2007, 08:20 AM

Because of Jesus, I am ALIVE. My sins are forgiven because He paid the ultimate penalty. And God saw His obedience and sacrifice and HE LIVES !!

Some photos from today: (We had to come up with a different Easter outfit since it is 35 degrees outside. Atleast the sun was shining a bit).

Edwards20 · 04-08-2007, 04:02 PM

Staying on plan and having a great day.

B= coffee, coffee, more coffee a flax muffin w/butter
S= turkey salad
L= roast, slaw, green beans
S= coffee
D= To be determined

Hannah and I made some chocolate chip Easter cookies last night. I have not had one bite. Randy has had a few. Randy and Hannah filled the eggs for the hunt and he snacked on jelly beans. MIL brought rolls and potato salad - didn't touch it. Didn't really bother me either, which was great

Hannah only got a few candy items in her basket. She got bubbles, and coloring books and a puzzle, a yo-yo and some stickers.
