IT IS WEDNESDAY WEIGH IN DAY - HOW YOU DOIN?

Hi Kim
Thank the good Lord your daughter was finally diagnosed and confirmed your suspicions.  I wish I had heard of this disease back when I was 16...all the typical symptoms started and nobody knew what was going on...so I have suffered for years.  And now the doctors tell me there isn't anything to really be done as I'm post menopausal...but I still have some of the symptoms! Medical technology is great; it is just sometimes soo slow in finding treatments :-(

Good Morning Cali Crew,

Chris you can put me down for 4.2lbs lost.

It is nice to be off today. I work tomorrow and Friday, and we are super short at work, so that should make it interesting. I am having coffee with a friends here in a bit, and I get to see her baby. He is 8months old, and totally cute. I can't wait. I am sure the little dude will cheer me up. I have a gym appointment this afternoon, not much else going on around here. I hope everyone has a fantastic day. Stay cool and hydrated!!!!

Mornin' Jillie and the rest of the Cali crew!

WWW has me the same. But I've had some stress this week, and have been eating accordingly. Two more class days, and then the weekend - and I'll get to relax. I think. Not sure what is going on this weekend.

Fall registration started Monday, but because I'm new to the school I do not get to register until Tuesday. 8 days after it starts! I sure hope there are some classes open by the time I get to register. Starting next semester I will be able to register on the first day of registration through the Disabled Students Office. When I registered with them this summer it was already past the deadline to get me in for priority registration.

I haven't had a chance to talk to Justin (the guy in my class) yet, but I have noticed that the note taker has been more present the last couple of days.

Jillie, I am so incredibly happy for you and Dusty! You must be so proud. I know I would be! And I completely get where you're coming from with the boarding fees - we pay $12 a night for our bird whenever we go out of town! But, at least he gets to interact with other birds while he is there. When he comes home after a particularly long stay (7-10 days) he makes different noises that he has picked up there. Sometimes it's cute. I just wish he would pick up some words. He's a ****atoo, so the capability is there, but he's over 30 - and if he hasn't learned any words yet, highly doubtful that he will anytime soon.

Sooo good to see you here!! I like what the lack of drama has been doing for the board.

Well, time to work on yet more homework. Just think, two and a half more years of this! I can do it. I think I can do it. Nope, now I'm not so sure. But I sure am going to put all I have into it!

Have a great day Cali and try to stay cool!

OK woman . . . you haven't been posting your weight loss . . . and since I am a fanatic about FANTASTIC numbers like yours, I just stole the number off your tracker and spread it out :D  So next week . . . you can post!

And I'm definately doing the lunch on Sunday in Oceanside

lol

Jillie - Have a great trip, I can only imagine how excited you are to go see him. Not to mention how proud you will be.

I too have been stuck at the same weight for about 2 months now. I really need to do the 5 day pouch test. I will try to start this Monday and see if it helps. Could also use some exercise as well.

Have great day all and try to stay cool. I just hate it when the weather is this hot..

Good Morning,

I was going to post a little after midnight when I woke up and I was just too sleepy, and basically drugged.  Chris we had a parade of ants in our home yesterday, they took over Vicki's food.  What a mess, then my dad fell down, holy crap, I told Doug last night we need a nurse here.  I can't care for my dad when he does these things.  To say the least, I did thinks I am not allowed to do, and I know why.  I was trying to wein myself off of the morphine, didn't work, had to take one.

Ok I am going to participate.  I had made myself a promise that when I started to gain weight I would not get over 240.  Well I have been struggle and hating myself alot because I did get over that.  Today I kept a promise to myself that I would start to behave.  It has worked, I started out on Friday at 246, this morning I am 239.  I am drinking plenty of water and upped my calicum, hoping whenever the doc gets into my spine that it's strong.  So 7 lbs for me. 

Congrats on your son Julie, Marines by far, look great in their dress blues.  Please post a pic of him when you get a chance, would love to see him.  Chris as I said...we need to get to those, ants, uncles, cousins and everyone of their family. 

Today is just like yesterday, but without the ants I hope.

Hugs to all, Diane

Hi Jillie and the Cali Crew,

I am only down one frickin' pound.  ARGH! I am only a month and 3 weeks out. I shouldn't be slowing down this much.  GGGRRRRR.........

OK, I know this is an ebb and flow thing, but I am an impatient person. Time just keeps dragging on.  I have lost 43 pounds in 7 weeks.  I think this is a good loss, but it has slowed down a lot from the first 3 weeks. 

On another note, I am wearing clothes today that I haven't fit into for a year. I am even wearing shoes that were too tight before.

Good morning Jillie and Cali and welcome to WWW.

Jillie - Have a fun and safe trip. Congrats to both you and your son!

I did not weigh today but I'm sure I'm the same. I feel the same, the clothes fit the same, it's the same. LOL

Hope everyone has a great day!

Good Morning Jillie & Cali Friends,

I thought I was going to announce that I was down 3lbs, but I'm NOT! Darn!! This has been one tough & crazy emotional week for me. The good thing is, I am able to recognize when I am eating for emotional reason vs. real hunger. So, Chris go ahead on put me down for the same as last time. "Grrrrr"!!

This is a new day & a new start to get back down! Hope everyone enjoys their Hump Day!!

Jules

Good Morning, Cali!!
Hope everyone is staying cool. I am down 3.1 pounds this morning.

My boyfriend and I are going to the garlic festival in Gilroy this weekend, along with another couple. Then on Sunday we are going out of Monterey to fish for rock cod. I am really looking forward to the weekend-except for the heat. I just need to remember to pick up my sea sick patches. We went to Alaska last summer. We were out on the boat fishing for halibut. I don't look good in green!! I am hoping to avoid that look again.

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week and weekend.
