Kentucky Derby . . . . . . Keeping on Track

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

Awww...I hope you feel better soon Cat.

Welcome to the crew Godsbeloved. This is a wonderful group of women.

I've been home (at my parent's house) since Wednesday night and will be here until Sunday. I'm feeling a bit discouraged right now because I know I'm not eating as good as I should. I haven't "cheated" per se, but I'm just not being as conscious as I normally am and to top it off my mom stocked the freezer with low-carb ice cream. I've decided that stuff is my downfall! I can't eat just one helping and then it makes me feel so crappy. I was doing SO good with a steady decline on the scale before coming home on Wed. Now I'm worried it might be going up. Guess I'll find out at my weigh-in on Monday. Okay, I'm done venting now! I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

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

Liz,
BACK AWAY FROM THE LOW CARB ICECREAM. Hang in there sweetie! It's tough to go home and have those temptations around you. Stay strong dear. You'll be happy you did come Monday. I'm rooting for you dear.
Sincerely Sherri
P.S. I use to get in trouble with the Schwanns Low Carb Butter Pecan. That stuff is evil! I can't even have it in the house. My DH has been waving the schwann man on for over a month now. Knowing that I have a weekness for it. That and the popcorn is not allowed around me. Hehe

***MAJOR EVENT COMING UP, NEED YOUR SUPPORT***

Hi My Derby Sisters, because we are family I must share this with you. I have a gentleman that I met over a year ago on a Christian Dating site and our relationship has developed into a very good FRIENDSHIP. He lives in North Carolina and I call him Jay (nickname). We have never met in person eventhough we have tried several times and something always comes up to prevent it. Well now we are scheduled to meet in March over the Easter weekend if the Lord is willing. We are not dating just very good friends. However there is an attraction there obviously because we met on a dating site. Yes I am nervous and I don't think I need to tell you all that I want to be sho-nuff "SOOKIE-SOOKIE" (aka HOT ) when I see him. So with that said I will be doing what I can to lose as much as I can before we meet. I have a new black sequenced suit that I would like to wear Easter and right now I can't fit the jacket but I want to be in it by Easter. So yall pray for a sistah ok and I will keep you updated and thanks.

I also want to share my website with you all. It will tell you a little more about me and what I am working on. www.mihi333.com

Cat - I hope you and your baby are feeling better.

Sunny - Will you rest please like the doctor told you....smile. I know you are bored to no end but we dont' want you to have a relapse or hurt yourself. I know it's hard for you to sit there and do nothing because you are a SPONKY Lady but be careful please.

Good Morning Derby Girls

I'm feeling stronger this morning. I know I'll be able to resist temptation. I don't want to blow it over something that's not even that tasteful. I have weigh-in on Monday and want to drop at least a pound. I'll be happy with a POUND! I'll be heading back to Atlanta tomorrow, back to the daily routine. I love having my weeks off of work but I always eat better on a set routine. Only 6 more weeks until I cruise!!

Catherine, I got the dress from Lane Bryant. I hated the sleeves, they had elastic in them drawing them up and making them too short. I have the ugliest upper arms! Anyway, my mom, being the wonderful mom she is, removed the elastic for me and sewed it back up and it is perfect now. I HATE wearing dresses. Haven't owned one in several years but I was super excited when I found this one. I love it. Now I just have to accessorize it which I'm not very good at. lol What type of shoes, jewelry, would you guys wear with it?

Lashon, how exciting. I have several friends who are now engaged to great men they met online. You'll be struttin' your stuff in your new suit soon!

Hope everyone has a wonderful, low carb, Saturday!

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

Good Morning Derby Ladies!!! Sorry I didnt check in yesterday, i was a little depressed and really cant pinpoint to what exactly if that makes sense. Im trying to shake it though, it could be a number of things, maybe my yeasties trying to die off, wouldnt that be great, or it is coming up on the year anniversary that my daddy passed away, and he was in ICU at this time last year, so im not sure, im not going to lie i didnt make great choices yesterday either i fought with it all day long and gave in, so i just didnt post . But this morning i got up and said today is a new day and had my homemade sausage lol, i tell you its not sausage you buy in the store thats for sure, its missing something just have not figured out what, but at least its got no fillers in it.
Well i took my daughter yesterday and all these rashes popping up on her is ringworm, so i have a cream to put on her, need to get it under control that crap spreads like wildfires lol.

Liz- you have been doing so good, im sure you will still have a great result on monday but you just need to step away from the ice cream lol, its vicious.

Lashon- how exciting for you to be able to meet someone online that you connect with. I will be checking out your website.

Cat- im so sorry you and your little one have strep, I have had it one time in my life, and i feel for anyone who gets it. Make sure you two get lots of rest.

Sherri- i just want to say you look great in your pics, you have came along way, i cant wait until im at that point to show off my progress.

Sunny- You do need to go rest, im going to repeat what lashon said, i have seen you on here a little to much even though i love your post they are always uplifting. As far as other things to do with beef, im waiting for some ideas myself, that is a big problem with me is i get tired of the same thing.

To all the other ladies i know im missing a few of you here, keep up the great work.

Ok ladies, im done rambling here, i got to get my house clean today, and my mil is coming over to spend the night so i will probally not be on much today, but i hope you all have a great weekend!!!

Girl you know we have your back. You have been doing a great job. I have faith in you and know that you can do this!

You must post a pic of this black sequence dress! I am sure you will be able to fit in it and will look hot in it.

Continue doing what you are doing and you will be fine!

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

I am proud to report that the scale is rewarding me for my efforts!

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

Hi Sunny,
Tasha is Lesszmore here. If you want to send the big guns after her Like I see we do with a few.
Okay, My picnic basket is ready too. I have a JJ Norths just south of where I live Sunny. We'll stop in there on our way out to the Coast.
Love you lots, Sherri

I know her as Lesszmore, but never knew her real name. I forgot that she had posted a few times on here.

The JJ North's just south of you is the one they go to. They eat out a lot and when my brother asks where his DW wants to eat, she always says JJ North's. They used to drive out every summer until 5 years ago when my DSIL had a heart attack. Every summer now thay plan to make the trip, but her health is still not good. They were gone for the whole summer for many years until then.

Sunny!

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

YAY Kass! I'm glad the scale is being good to you! I will be heading out on April 7th for a cruise to Cozumel and Playa Del Carmen, Mexico. I'm hoping to lose at least 10 more pounds by then. I would love to be in the 200's but not sure if I can swing that.

Lisa, I hope your depression is lifted soon. I'll be praying for that. I'm glad you're back on track today. Have fun with your MIL.

[SunnySmile501]

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

Having strep sucks. Me and the little one have been sleeping off and on all day. We both have sore throats this time (unusual for us) and stomach pain (which is usual for us). Send up a prayer for us. I'm headed to bed (she's already sleeping),

Take care my DGs.

I'm so sorry that you and Sweetpea are sick! Strep is nothing to play around with. It can turn into or cause all kinds of nasty stuff. Please rest as much as possible and get better. Love you both.

Sunny!

I love, love, love your Website! You are on my daily prayer list for your wishes about fitting the outfit, but more importantly, that your 'friend' turns out to be what he has portrayed himself to be. I worry about Internet meetings. If it didn't work out before for you two to meet, it must not have been in God's timing.
