My Low Carb Road Trip II - Page 7

writermom · 05-29-2012, 08:50 AM

Yay on the compliments! I bet that felt good. It's always nice when other people notice and then you can be like "Who, me? Oh, I just cut a few carbs here and there."

tiggy_oz · 05-29-2012, 05:56 PM

Wow I didn't know it was so hot there already! Pool's and pulls and picnics! It's like summer! Great job on having the LC talk with that lady. Hopefully she gives it a shot and can avoid the WLS direction.

Izzysdream · 05-29-2012, 06:40 PM

Glad you had a good weekend. We have perfect pool weather here in St. Louie!

easwann · 05-29-2012, 07:06 PM

Hello, Miss Kitty!! Love the 'stang pics!

kittycitygirl · 05-29-2012, 08:00 PM

Def back in ketosis. Weird how fast I can get in it now....that is if I don't stray far.

The rain here was like a monsoon! The pool is full to the top now! Yikes! Going to cool off for a few days

Someone even is posting tornado pic.s from nea here...didn't touch down thankfully!

Had my yearly review today. All good.

did feel a bit

at one point when she said nice polish color (on my toe nails). Not sure if sincere or a dig that my toes were out

that's me though! No, not a pedi Amber

kittycitygirl · 05-30-2012, 04:16 AM

Up again today...158.......grrrrrrrr.....

Must figure something out....not going in that direction!

Bejewelme · 05-30-2012, 04:20 AM

Kitty- are you not allowed to have toes out? My son's school the teachers are in flip flops, I was stressing about nylons yesterday my dress was long with it being 95 I did no nylons but closed shoes, the interview lady had no nylons and toes out, LOL

Meg2039 · 05-30-2012, 04:25 AM

Hardly anyone wears nylons anymore! And open toe shoes are pretty much the norm everywhere in the summer! Believe me...I go to offices all over the country, and it is rare to even see suits these days! Dress your best for an interview, but these days, nylons are not required!

Jealous!

Hope you have a good day, and congrats on the great review!

kittycitygirl · 05-30-2012, 03:57 PM

Still in ketosis, but bloated.....feel big! I am big! Pants were tight! Grrrrrrr......

Peeing like crazy.......what gives???

Got some pool time in again today! Yay! 73 stirred up! Going to be cold out omorrow here...60s for high. Craziness!

A girl offered me a birthday cupcake today....when I told her no thanks, and happy birthday, her friend said "See, I told you she wouldn't!" Even the young are realizing I've changed! Yay!

Happy2be · 05-30-2012, 05:29 PM

WOO HOO!!!! Thats awesome!! Way to show those girls!!!

Sorry you are feeling bloated. I am starting to wonder if its been our weather by chance.

kittycitygirl · 05-30-2012, 06:32 PM

Wondered that too. May see a change if it is since the temp is going to drop for a few days.

Been going through everything trying to figure this out.

PghPALady1974 · 05-31-2012, 04:56 AM

Morning Kitty! Where on earth did you see 60's for today?? I see 77! Perfect temp for me!!

It may be the weather making you bloated. Are you taking in more sodium than normal for some reason? Hopefully you figure this out!

Hummm a cupcake? It would have been way hard for me to pass up! I like cupcakes more than cake!!

Meg2039 · 05-31-2012, 05:15 AM

Good Morning Kitty!
Cool here today too. High of 65. then RAINNNNNY all weekend.

We need the rain, but why not rain during the week!

janetsbreeze · 05-31-2012, 06:11 AM

Kitty, good for you passing up that cupcake!!

ChristineCQ · 05-31-2012, 01:55 PM

I bet it's the humidity. Hang in there!

kittycitygirl · 05-31-2012, 05:15 PM

5 day....I think WPXI...a couple days ago....it's now listed on Sat.s! WT? Yep, got in mid 70s. Here too.

kittycitygirl · 05-31-2012, 07:10 PM

Hoping it is just weather...

Back cramp/spasm hit last night and still not letting up

hurts to move.....

Carby snacks offered too often. No wonder I used to lose over summer and regain starting in the fall!

tiggy_oz · 05-31-2012, 08:02 PM

Bugger, hope the back is better soon *hugs*

Go you on the cupcake refusal. Thats great they don't push you, and just accept you don't eat those things anymore.

glamazon · 05-31-2012, 09:48 PM

Aw, no! Hope your back feels better! That sucks!

kittycitygirl · 06-01-2012, 04:07 AM

155.6 today! Yay! Back to my stuck weight! LOL was up several times "whooshing"

Raining here.

Back is feeling a lot better, but still "there". Have to get through today....

Yep, great when people get my woe. Most do now. They truly get it

even if they don't try it.

Will see if I get my lunch the way I ordered it. Bunless hoagie....steak ....

Have a great day everyone!

janetsbreeze · 06-01-2012, 09:12 AM

Have a great day Kitty!

Meg2039 · 06-01-2012, 01:02 PM

Hi Kitty!

Happy2be · 06-01-2012, 07:25 PM

That sounds good. Did they get it right?

kittycitygirl · 06-02-2012, 05:46 AM

Came home yesterday, made cup of coffee, heard storm coming, so prepared.....moments later power went off.....back on an hour ago.....sheesh! Lucky though...all we got was rain....tornadoes hit south. Not sure what caused ours to go out though. Thought our elec came from the north. At least we didn't get the bad storms. Praying for them. Seeing damage reports now on news

Order was ok. Only what they would have put on the bun. No extra lettuce etc.

booo! They didn't need to use a bun and would charge the same, so? What's up? I got a small container of mayo...put it on and tasted...to my horror! It was miracle whip! Scraped what I could off.....pulled out my ranch dressing and used it. Ughhhh! Not worth the trouble! Sugar in mm, and I have never liked the sweet sugar taste in a mayo.

Back spazzing again

Booo! Tired of this! Wish I had a muscle relaxer....

Bejewelme · 06-02-2012, 05:51 AM

Oh Kitty we had terrible storms here too, it was nasty we had tornado warnings up but I did not hear of any touching down. Almost everyone back here had weight up, I went to my doctor to get drained and he said he was up 6 pounds and his wife 8 pounds for no apparent reason so I am guessing it was the humidity, I was up and I was like whoa, I didnt even have any booze but now its back to my normal stuck weight too!

I hope your back feels better. There is nothing worse than back pain.

PghPALady1974 · 06-02-2012, 09:02 AM

Those storms yesterday were crazy! We didn't have anything but winds and very heavy rain in Washington. On my way home was when they issued the tornado warnings. Luckily nobody got hurt!! The vids and pics on the news are amazing!

pooticus · 06-02-2012, 10:29 AM

Wow Kitty! Glad the tornadoes missed you hon!!! So sorry to hear about your back! But I would take the toe thing as a compliment. No one wears hose any more and open toe shoes are in style!!

So glad you are getting to enjoy your pool. Have you seen Juan up there? He took off a few weeks ago in disgust. Our algae pool is gonna be the death of us!

Hugs!!! Much love!

kittycitygirl · 06-02-2012, 11:27 AM

.....Juan? Uhhhhh......haven't seen him.....(steps in front of view of sparkly clean pool).....oh! Have I shown you my supply of bacon?!

Hard to say how she meant the toe thing...she is kind of hard to read. Not worrying though.

I think it might have been heat humidity upping the weight. Will have to remember that when it warms up again.

Hubby blaming back on the swimming in cool water...not sure...I think it might be the swimming period after no swimming all winter.

Got our half pig from the butcher and in freezer. Had to defrost and clean it this morning. Was going to do that last night, but was afraid the elec. would be off too long....

Yes, we were lucky here. Just rain, and it wasn't even that ad. When the lights went out, I expected severe weather to hit.

just glad it didn't. Pity those south of here.

Glad you are ok Burgh Lady. Thought of you.
