You are Welcome... Nicole make sure if you can't put your menu on your PC till you get home write it on a piece of papper. So you remember everything you eat. I know I have to make sure every time I put something in my mouth I have to write it down fast LOL or I will forget about it.

HELLO MY LOVE......Congratulations on starting your journal.I am sooo PROUD of you.
You know that you are wonderful and beautiful and you can do it.
Maybe you can sit down with your hubbie and have a serious heart to heart with him.I know that some guys prefer BBW's,but tell him that you are trying to get healthy so that you two can start making babies.
Maybe he thinks that you will start looking at other men if you slim down.This may not be the case,but just ensure him that you are only losing weight to make yourself better.I will follow your lead and post menu's DANG...

This is your year Sis..and Happy Birthday again.

[oct2667us]

oh it is not going to good. I fell off LC and then I got my hair cut today and they cut it way to short!!!!. So now Have to get back on LC and let my hair grow out for years again.. but It looks like you are doing good...

[nicsweed]

Melinda, awww....Poor thing, i know things like that happen, and when they do u just gotta pull ur-self back up by ur boot straps and keep on trucking, i kinda fell off the wagon too, but not purposly, u see this time i started i decided to do south beach, because i need to eat a low fat diet because of gallbladder issue's, so i thought it would be easier than atkins....well i did not read all the book, like i should have and i misunderstood a few things like, how many almonds to eat, and the whole low fat milk thing....i will read the book this weekend and start fresh the right way....so here is the menu so far.

B-string cheese and a beef jerky....i was in a rush

L-i went to a buffet with a co-worker, so i ate at the salad bar 3 trip's....and so topings off of 3 or 4 peices of chesse pizza

D-i dunno yet probably egg's and turkey bacon....

i weighed in this morning, even though i said i would wait a week and i was down 4.2 pounds.....yeah

[oct2667us]
