  • Re: Kentucky Derby . . . . . . Keeping on Track

    Good Morning All,

    KASS-- yes more veggies first. I have already done that. So I am wanting to add some nuts. I haven't yet though... maybe today!!

    Does anyone know the approximate amount of each nut (i,e almonds, walnuts etc) that equal an oz? Is it about 14 almonds?

    I hope you all have a great day!!! Keep on truckin'!!!!!

    Take care of you.............

      Sorry! I do know that the answer is in DANDR (2002 version) but I can't remember what page it's on.

        Cat..evrytime I look up you have lost more weight. Yes...you!!!! are an inspiration.

        Sherri/Where are you baby???

        Marty...you are losing like crazy too.

        Sweets....yes, I am adding more veggies, then we can start on the nut rung??? I have to look in my book.
        Congrats on the win! I wish I would win something (like the lottery). I won't be weighing for a while. It feels like TOM is about to interrupt my life any day now.

          The answer is on page 174 of DANDR. Almonds = 24, walnuts = 14 halves, macadamias = 10 to 12. You can only have 1/2 an ounce of cashews or 9 nuts.
          People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.

                  I think we should make this happen next summer. We can all get into our cars and meet somewhere close to the center of the country. Maybe Kansas? If we go across the Mississippi River, we'll have to blindfold Cat and drive her across. I'm game if anyone else is up for a road trip!

                  Sunny!

                        Ok, I'm ROFLOL!! Yes Sunny you'd have to blindfold me and give me Valium. I don't like heights or water!! Just the thought makes me ill.

                        Hi Sweets! How's it going?

                        Hey Kass and Sherri, now I'm sending out the big guns to look for you two!!

                        Everything is going ok in Kentucky. I'm very tired though. I think my thyroid meds need to be adjusted. All my shopping is DONE!! Now, I just wish I could find someone to wrap the gifts. My Mom is buying me a laptop for Christmas/birthday combo. I'm so excited!! Tashiana has a calendar on her wall and doing the X through the days counting down to when she can play with "Baby Alive". She's so funny. She just got a new computer in her room but is more excited about Baby Alive.

                        Later!!

                          That's a fantastic idea! Then, Oprah will fund the trip! I can dream, can't I??? Since they are so picky about you actually having to buy a ticket to win the lottery, I'll have to come up with a different way to get funds. Maybe if we all start putting money aside for all losses and mini-goals reached, we can have the money by next summer. It would certainly help motivate us to succeed if we had something wonderful to work towards. If I can get to goal, I have a ton of clothes that fit. I won't even need the money for new clothes!

                          Sunny!

                            I'll have to buy new clothes as I haven't seen 140 pounds in 14 years. Thus why I have set up my new ticker with the credit card, clothes, and cash register. See below! I'll dream with you Sunny and maybe our dreams will come true (have Oprah fund the trip). I'll send our group in for a free makeover and clothes to celebrate us!!

                              Did someone mention big guns? LOL Here I am ladies. I didn't wonder far. I took some time out for myself. I feel much better now. I've always dreamed of going on the Oprah Show. For one thing, I just love her to peices. I beleive she would be intrugued by how we all came together and met. We are all success stories. O.K. Whose writing the letter. Cat? Sunny? Marty? Kass? Sweets? All of us? I know one thing. I am definately interested in meeting all of our Kentucky Derby Girls here. A night on the town sounds great! Maybe on Oprahs Tab?
