  • Roll Call.... Saturday! 11/17

    Morning everyone! I woke at 4:20am wide awake I have to get ready for the farmer's market, but usually don't wake until around 6... sometimes I love this (don't mind it as much today) and sometimes I hate it.

    My date with my husband went well last night - went to Ruby Tuesday's and had a turkey burger w/sauteed portabella mushrooms and swiss cheese on top and they doubled the ceaser salad to go with it (I think the waitress was just a ditz and did it by accident but worked for me) Had diet coke with dinner and I can tell this morning because I'm a little bloated from it but I can't stand the taste of the town water so I won't complain too much.

    I picked up a fitness mag last night also which my husband rolled his eyes at - but at the same time laughed. Apparently according to him, I won't ever be "hot" but will be "cute" always no matter how much weight I lose. Something about not being blonde I think he said it's also because I don't put as much work into it (makeup, clothes etc). So I guess that's true. BUT the funniest thing was that I don't have an "apple butt" which my daughter (age has - little perfectly round tush. I thought I used to have one when I used to work out to extremes when I was 19 - but he says no, it was always a little flat. Gotta love the man's honesty - and sometimes he just cracks me up. Understand - he's not putting me down at all, just I would show him pictures of women I think have my similar body style and ask what he thinks and I always try to bug him about it in a fun fashion. After 17+ years together you'd THINK you'd know the guy - LOL. So I'm ok with "sexy cute" vs "sexy hot".......

    Oh well off to print a few signs to put up at the market today. SEE YOU ALL LATER!!! HAVE A LEGAL DAY

        Good Morning Stacers!

        Lots of traveling for me today. Taking DSD to the airport...she is going to visit grammie for the week. Have my jugs of H20 ready along with friendly snacks. Frequent trip so I know where to eat that is Atkins friendly. The sun is shining & it will be a nice day. Even have my DANDR packed to read while I wait with her for the plane.

        Have a great day everyone!

          Morning all! I woke up this morning starved! I had a large breakfast; 2 eggs, 2 sausages, 1 cup of Brussel sprouts with butter, 1/2 cup of strawberries, a large glass of water, and coffee. My hubby's still ill, we had a rough night, but I'm sure he'll be better today. Just a virus, hope I can avoid it.

          We're still traveling home for Thanksgiving, I can't wait. I regret I'll be missing the big Thanksgiving day parade here in Chicago but I'd rather be with my kids.

          The weather man is calling for snow here this week-end., and perhaps next week. Yep, winter is upon us.

          Hope everyone has a great Saturday!

            Good morning everyone. Yes, winter is upon us. When I opened the shades this morning, it just LOOKS like winter.

            DH and I went shopping for a new recliner last night...it's quite the quest. I want one that a)doesn't look like a recliner and b)is a wall hugger. We'll see.

            Nothing too exciting going on today...just relax. I'm on plan, feeling good and hope you are too!

              Good Morning!
              First time this week I didn't sleep too well. I think it's because I didn't walk yesterday or get out in the sunshine. I have to work all weekend and am dreading it. I've been reviewing recipes on Linda's website. Trying to get inspired to cook. Everyone is still asleep in my house. It's foggy outside. Hoping the sun will come out soon so I can walk in it.
              I bought some new clothes yesterday... my sizes are going down. 2 of the shirts I bought were medium and I bought a size 10 skirt! That's a first!
              Haven't gotten on the scale yet today...

                Goodmorning! Just woke up and I feel great. =) Those three steaks I had yesterday seriously helped me through the night where I couldn't eat anything. I had a great time at the Hospital and I got to see a lot of different things. It was a well deserved experience and I am so excited for the future when I will be working in the ER as a nurse, cause you never know what you're going to get. I Have a long ways to go, but I am going to fight the battle and be that RN soon enough!!

                As for my eating, I am doing great. I haven't cheated at all yesterday, so that is a plus for me. I'm really thirsty right now, but I get that way when I haven't had anything to drink when I sleep. But I did take a nice reliefer this morning, watching the pounds melt off me. Sweetbeans. I can't wait til Monday to see how much I've lost. =)

                Goodluck to you guys today!!!! Stay positive and drink that water.

                  morning yall!!
                  it sure doesn't feel like winter out here in the desert....still in the high 80's and sunny! but it DID cool down to the 60's or so last night, so i am pretending it is cold out with my jeans and sweater! of course, there is a tank top under there for after about 10 am....
                  so i am posting this in another post, but i found out i have mono....i am so exhausted! no wonder i have had no energy for exercise.
                  planning to get my weekly mani/pedi this morning and then i have a funeral this afternoon. won't have energy for probably much else.

                      Hi all. Low carb breakfast at IHOP while I waited for new brakes for the car. Then we went to the YMCA and upgraded my dh's membership to a family membership. They had told me that we'd have to pay the big fee again, but once we were there, they said that since we had a family membership (10yrs ago) and downgraded to a single that we could upgrade back to family w/o the big fee. Yea! I'm really excited about this. They have childcare for my 3yr old, so dh can lift weights and ds (7yrs) and I can play racquetball. Ds can take swim lessons for no extra cost and dd can do gym and swim. This solved the winter excercize problem. I'm psyched!

                      I hope you all have a great weekend.

                        Good Morning STAC'ers,

                        Happy Saturday! I am feeling much better-migraine seems to be gone. I slept in for the first times in several weeks and feel well rested. I made a spinach, brocoli, sausage, beef and cheese crustless quiche for dinner last night and had left overs for breakfast. Yummy!

                        I will be heading to the gym a little bit later and then to the park with my dogs so they can frolic in the snow.

                        Sheepie we have a family membership to the Y and it is great.

                        Partytrouble- I had mono when I was a kid - I remember being very lethargic. I hope you get to feeling better soon.

                        Bekka- Great job with induction, Monday will be here before you know it.

                        Liz- congrats on the new clothes size 10 WOW. I broke down and bought a new winter coat and boots a few days ago nothing sexy but a size smaller on the coat. I am running out of clothes that fit but I don't want to waste any money. I may go second hand shoppingsooner than later. Hopefully I will be up for a new wardrobe by next summer.

                        My daughter has a guitar performance tonight that I am looking forward to.
                        Have a wonderful day people
