Kentucky Derby . . . . . . Keeping on Track

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

I'm so sorry that you're having a rough time. I wish I could be there to help in some way. Since I cannot be there....maybe this pic will cheer you up.

What a beautiful sweet baby girl! She's got lipstick on! She's so pretty! Santa should have brought her a tiara for Christmas! I've been meaning to ask: Did you have one of those nasty "Baby Alive" dolls when you were little? My daughter had one and I thought it was disgusting! I can't believe they still make them.

Who is that skinny girl in your avatar picture????

Sunny!

P.S. I heard back from Sweets! She promises to post again soon. We are going to hold her to it. We'll send the posse after her soon if she doesn't come back!

Hi Sunny, Hope you are having a wonderful day...I see that we are on at the sametime.

Cat...you can ditch the mushrooms and add other veggies.

I'm so not a cook. What do you suggest my friend? Would zucchini work? I've been cooking a lot with that.

She is absolutely beautiful. I think this is the first close up pic I've seen. How cute...did you do the makeup??

Thank you! Can you believe the princess did the makeup herself? I promise. Did I tell you about last year when I had to take her to the eye doc (age 5)? She was in the bathroom for a while. I didn't pay attention when she came out because we had to hurry to the eye appointment. We're sitting down in the lobby of the eye doctor and I glance over (I know bad mommy for not observing sooner) and she had makeup (purple eyeshadow) on. It was on perfect too. I was so embarrassed because I know people were thinking I had put that on her. She thought it was hysterical.

How funny. She sounds like a little prankster. I can't believe she did the make up herself.

Zucchini will totally work!

Granted we are not kin to each other, might we have a future couple down the road (your baby and my baby)?

She is so much a prankster. She is always doing something and laughing so hard she cries. She gets that from my brother.

Thank you Sunny!! Yep, she put the lipstick on all by herself. Why do I see her sneaking out of the house later with makeup in her backpack to put on at school (note to self: check backpack every morning). Me skinny? LOL!! However that is so sweet of you to say.

My Mom claims I had a Baby Alive doll when I was little but I promise I don't remember it. Tashiana's doll is bilingual (English/Spanish). I had to get on the internet to figure out how to switch it to English. Sometimes though it will revert back to Spanish. I'm going to get Tashiana either the Muzzy (?) DVDs or some other program so she can learn Spanish (not that she needs it to speak to her hot mess father but so that she can speak to other members of her family on that side).

Oh what a beauty! And Mom's looking good too - nice new picture! You look skinny to me too (and I've been here, what, 2 weeks or less, lol).

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

Hello Ladies!SUNNY I was glad to hear you were able to get ahold of Sweets. I'm looking forward to seeing her here again. I like her! Shes got spunk! I had a few days off plan. I allowed my emotions to get the best of me and, well, I ate, and ate, and ate. This is day 2, back on plan for me. Bring on the New Year I say. I have you in my prayers Sunny. CAT- Tashiana is so beautiful! What a little cutie! I love, love, love her hair! GORGEOUS! Sunny is right, she needs a tierra.KASS-I'm all for setting up a time for a chat with you all. Pick a time, I'm pretty flexible. That sounds like alot of fun. Marty-You are really getting the weight off girl! I realize you don't have much of an appetite. Try to eat something three times a day at least though, O.K.SWEETS-We've missed you girl! Hope you are doing alright! Sending you positive vibes! Well, like I said. I went off plan and now i'm back on for good. I'm not messing around! No more half stepping. I've got to get with the program and get to goal. I've come so far to just start dilly dallying around. It's time for me to get'er done! So let's go Derby Girls. Watch out "2008" cause here we come!

The kids here are wearing makeup at her age! She does a real good job of it--looks like she has lots of practice! You better be checking that backpack!

Does she see her father or the other members of his side of the family??? If I could go back and do it all over, my kids would have never seen their father again. I thought I was doing right by trying to keep him in their lives, but it only did them severe damage. We divorced when Paula was 4 months old, and should have before she was born (he wanted me to abort her or give her up for adoption). He died when Paula was 10, but he had already totally destroyed any self-esteem she had.

Sunny!

Hey Sherri! Glad to see you back on track. Hang in there mi amiga!! Don't beat yourself up. It's all going to work itself out and you will reach your goal weight in 2008.

Sunny!

We separated when she was 4 months old (how ironic that you divorced when your daughter was 4 months old). I divorced him. I tried to keep a connection going between them but when she was 2 he told her he was coming back, left, she waited, and he didn't return. That was it. No one will play games with my baby's emotions. When she was 3, child support started garnishing his wages (out of nowhere). He then started acting a fool. In exchange for no child support I had him sign away his rights (in front of a notary). We've had no contact since then. He did, at one time, try to talk to her from a distance when we saw him in a store. She was scared and squeezing my hand and I was determined that I was going to seriously injure one man if he tried to get too close to her. Luckily my brother was here at that time and that was the end of that (he's scared of my brother). He was deported to Honduras this year (hooray, I love Karma). I see his family occasionally but they don't know where I live or have my phone number ( I made sure of that). I hate that it had to come to that but I had my emotions torn all to pieces when I was younger because of a stupid man and I won't let her go through that.

You are so right! I have been dilly dallying around for a year! I didn't hurt anyone but myself by eating crap two nights in a row! Back on track today and not even thinking about eating crap tonight. I'm starting back on my exercise plan on Monday--first thing. I AM getting to goal! I AM!!!

Good night all!

Sunny!
