    Hi everyone :wave

    Well, my company is gone and the pool/birthday party is over... I wore my new size 14 bathing suit and actually floated on my float in front of 14 people!! I was embarrassed but what the heck. It could have been when I was 312 lb's right??? I haven't strayed off plan one bit and that was with chocolate cake and fudge ripple ice cream in the house!!

    We had burgers and hot dogs, brats, deviled eggs, seven layer salad, cheese chips for me, a beautiful relish tray choc full of pepperoni's, cheddar cheese, green olives, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes, pickle spears, and an awesome induction happy spring onion dip!! I had a lot of choices and it was easy to pass on the pot slad and chips, baked beans and etc.... Woohoo. I'm one happy camper to make it through this week.

    We have another Birthday party on Sunday and will have a lot of the same things...

    How's everyone else doing???

    Hugs, Tammy

      Wow Tammy, sounds like you had a great time!!!! Good for you! I bet you looked great in that size 14 swim suit! You go girl!!!! Can I come to your next party? Sounds like you through the best parties - especially for us on Atkins. There is no way anyone on Atkins would have felt temptation with all the yummy legal foods you had.

      Keep having a great summer!!!!

              Thanks Tammy! It was a fun (annual) party (hence my huge grin in the picture). This was the 2nd year going to it and taking my "atkins" friendly food. So many silly women, my friends, were there.

              I really felt pretty glamorous that night!

                Re: Clean it up..... CC Summer Challenge

                I did it! I did it!!! I'm at 200 lb's this morning!!! One more pound to Onederland!!!

                I have been working my bum off on our property for weeks. Mowing, weeding, entertaining out of town company... And my daughter and I have been doing water aerobics for almost 3 weeks. I can't believe I finally dropped to 200.... I'm so pumped!!

                I have really been watching everything I put into my mouth and with the exceptions of a nice cup of real coffee a couple of times, and some Induction safe cheesecake that I overindulged in, I would say my Clean Summer Challenge is beginning to pay off for me.

                I'm hoping to be in Onederland by Monday.... With all my luck, the extra exercise will cause me to retain water and I'll be up 2 lb's by then..lol But I'm keeping a positive attitude..

                I hope eveyone is having a safe 'Clean' Summer..... How are we all doing??
                What do you think of the new board?? I'm a bit lost but I'm beginning to find my way around...

                  Tammy--I was doing so well and then in the last few days succumbed to the lowcarb ice cream siren song. I had made it down to 201! Sheesh! Well more water today and loads of workouts and maybe I'll get there again next week!

                  Congrats to you getting to the doorway. You'll be through it in no time!

                      UGH, the "hungry horrors" have hit me. I was even "craving" cheese! I need to UP my water I think. Trying to avoid my kitchen.

                        Hang in there Kathy..remember, Onederland is just on the other side of that door!! We can do this!!!!!! We gotta focus. lolol

                        I'm still at 200 and I think it's more 200 and a half, but I don't have a digital scale so I'm not sure. I wanted to get back in the pool so badly this week and swim my way to Onederland. It's not going to happen this week... So much rain dang it! I guess I need to dust off my treadmill or pull out one of my Leslie Sansone tapes and get with it. I'm lazy today. Rainy weather makes me want to just sleep, eat, or watch tv all day and that's the old me. I refuse to let it get me....
                        I'm going to make a tuna salad with boiled eggs and mayo, drink about a gazillion ounces of water, exercise, and maybe I can passed this sleepy feeling.

                        Hope everyone is having a good day...

                        Hugs, Tammy

                          Hi everyone,

                          So sorry I abandoned this challenge. I didn't mean to disappear but we have had 4 families visit from Va since the middle of July. I'm frazzeled. All DH's family want to see the new house so they keep trickling in every 2 weeks, stay a week or more, and then head out. Then after 2 or 3 days rest, another hoard comes through. My house is a disaster. I get it half way clean and the storm hits again. I bet they all think I'm a slob!!! My guest room has been through the ringer. I have shampooed the carpets twice and finally gave up!! lol

                          Sorry to gripe. But I need to get my life back in order. My water has suffered, my exercise has suffered, thank goodness I have stayed on plan as far as my food intake goes.
                          I'm holding steady at 198....Got in the pool and did my water aerobics tonight and am working on my 4th bottle of water..will be up all night running to the potty, but that's ok...lol

                          How is everyone else doing... Still a bit of summer left and then on to the Holidays YIKES...thats another challenge...

                          Hope to hear from all of you soon...

                          Huggers, Tammy
