Morning Cali . . . here is hoping everyone is safe from fires . . . and please protect all those that are protecting us from them!

It's Wednesday - which means give us your stats . . . down, up, doesn't matter . . . we are tracking our weight loss for the year ... we've passed 1 ton . . . and maybe trying for 2 tons?  Tell us your SVs, your NSVs . . .or anything else you like . . . I will post the tally tomorrow.  After tomorrow, I'm handing off to Barb for next week . . . because I'll be GONE . . . Wahoo!

Not much else new for me today . . . have a good one and stay safe!

Hugs
Chris

Good morning Chris and Cali Guys and gals.

I am glad to report a 1lb loss this week and I can't believe it as I have been on a major stall for what seems like forever.  I will take the one lb.  I think it is all because of the walking I have been doing in the great outdoors.  Barb your a real trooper for helping out Chris.

You all have a super terrific day.

Hey lady . . . are you drinking stuff with electrolytes in it while you are out in all this heat?  There are lots of things without the sugars and crap in them . . . jus****ching out for you (amazing what we learn while training for big walks, runs, etc. - it also applies to working!)

Good morning Chris and Cali,

We no loss to report this week.  Probably form all the time in the car on my but!  That is OK, I did not gain either!  We made it home and all was well on the home front.  My sister could not believe how much weight I have lost.  Her S-I-L said someone took half of your sister!  I thought this was funny.

Hope everyone has a great day.  Keep safe from the fires.  I hate to send my mom home with all the fires going around down south.  She has horrible asthma and the smoke just kills her when she goes out.  I am sure her home air purifiers are working overtime!

Good Morning everyone,

I can tell in your writings Chris that you are really getting excited about your trip.  The outfits you guys are going to wear are going to be gorgeous.  I am so proud of you!  Really proud, and I would love to donate a few dollars if you would be so kind and send me the info, PM of course.

We had a very unlovely night last night.  Our air conditioner condenser went out at about 11 last night.  It's only a year old.  Our last one lasted us 15 years, and now this one is 1 yr, something ain't right!  It was warm in the house, but the repairman is on his way already.  With my dad with his health issues and me stuck upstairs.  Crap, I hope they get it fixed.

I haven't seen Kirsten around these parts.  All of your remember that they are going on a 7 day cruise in Feb for Kevins birthday, and everyone is invited.  Should be great fun...so send a message to Kirsten if you are interested.  It will be over Valentines Day, what a wonderful way to spend it with your honey.

Good to see Miss Rhonda around here.  Miss her alot, but with working and her kids, I am surprised she has time to even sleep.  I keep telling you all, she is one amazing woman.  To think I was such a bitach that I didn't like her for a long time.

I miss seeing Steve around these parts.  If you are lurking Steve, I think about you all the time, and really miss seeing your smiling face.  I hope you and D are doing good.

Good to see Delores is back from her trip up North.  It is so beautiful in Oregon and Washington.  I am so sad that I never get to go up there often.  Glad you had a good time Delores, but we missed you around these parts.  Also glad you feel better.

Katt is back from Sin City.  Sounds like they had a great successful time out there.  Of course she went out there to sing, as for me, I would be sitting at a slot machine.  Glad you have fun Katt.

Ok that is all I can think of, probably when I post this I will think of 20 other things, but I just wing this, and it's early and my brain is close to frying up here.

I wish everyone a good day, know that I think of you all, my extended fun loving, caring and sweet family.  Love and hugs, Diane

Good morning all,

Hope everyone is doing well and not having a bad time with all this smoke and ash in the air.

Chris, put me down for 4 pounds lost this week. I am amazed after the IV fluids and such for my surgery on Monday but it was not much.

Have a great day........Rick

P.S. Does anyone know how to update their weightloss tracker here on OH? I can do the one that is on my messages but the one set up on my profile I cannot update anymore. OH has done some changes and I cant figure it out........Thanks in advance

Hey Rick . . . took me forever to figure out what they did with it too .  .  . and I had to go look again because I couldn't remember - go to My OH up above and then the tracker will pop up on the list on the left . . . not real easy like it used to be . . . but it could be worse I guess!

Good morning Chris and the rest of California,

I'm not a happy girl today.  The hip is aching this morning.  I'll just have to push through the day though.  Just two more days after today and I'm on vacation for a week.  I so can't wait.  I just hope this sore throat is gone by Saturday.  This throat infection hurts way too much and the horse pills the doctor prescribed have totally messed up my stomach.  But it will be worth it if they make my throat all better.

As for weight.  I'm down 1/2 pound this week.  I'll take it.  Better than being up.  The doctor says that after a certain age , it gets harder for the weight to come off due to hormonal changes and the fact that I had the hysterectomy in March as well.  So I think once I get back from vacation, I've got to really put my head into this and get serious.  Exercise is difficult with the hip situation, but I think I can try to walk on the treadmill. 

Guess I better get busy here.  Too many clients have woken up this week and sent me in their accounting and I just don't have enough hours or days left in the week to get it all done.

Everyone have a wonderful day.  Stay safe if you are in the fire zones, thank a fire fighter when you see one and remember, do something wonderful just for yourself.

Stephanie
