Wow I can't believe I am the second one here this morning. That is a first for me and I am on the west coast!

Hope you all have a wonderful cheat free day and are enjoying your weekend. I know I am.

I'm here everyone! Weighed in at 146 this morning - still happy about that. Gotta figure out dinner for this evening.

No sunshine - it's supposed to rain later. I'm just excited about all the plants and seeds coming in soon It's always a fun time to watch my husband grow stuff - LOL. Especially since I get to eat it! Can't wait - I hate storebought veggies!!

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

morning. Well, I'm having a really crappy couple of days here!

Yesterday I did some of my univ. work in the a.m., but by noon I was feeling really awful - sort of loopy and exhausted from the cold. After I picked up dh from work at 3:30, I went to bed, and all of a sudden, I started having what feels like prickly heat all over my body - only no rash. All night. I took a total of 6 benadryl, which didn't help at all, and two baths - one with oatmeal, one with baking soda, which helped for about 2 min.

Today I'm still itchy. Like one spot on my body prickles, I touch it, and a place somewhere else starts. Ever heard of this? Haven't eaten anything new, no new chemicals or detergents, lotions or anything!

Anyway, I'm going to take it easy today. Just work at the computer and maybe read. This is really annoying, but things could be worse. And my cold is better.

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

Oh my gosh, Evermind, that sounds nasty! I wish I could tell you I knew what it was...have you done some internet-sleuthing? Usually I like to check out WebMD for strange symptoms.

I'm feeling pretty good this morning! I had a really good night's sleep, and got up first thing, went to the gym, and ran 5 miles. Didn't realize until I got home I was supposed to have run 6 miles. Oh well! I'm trying to train for a half marathon in just 10 weeks. I'm going to run it with an old friend of mine from HS, so I'm very excited! Wish me luck that we'll be able to do it!

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

Have a great Sunday!!

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

Good morning...oops, I mean afternoon.

Chuch, buffet, shoe shopping. The talk here recently about cute shoes got to me. That and the fact that I really needed shoes and boots and they were on sale. It looks like I'm back to size 10's! Yea! I've been wearing 11's, but today I bought 2 pairs and they both were 10W. The 11's were too big. This means I'll have more choice now. Btw, are shoe sizes the same or did they change too, like women's clothing sizes? I think, hope, that they're the same as always. I've never been into shoes, unlike some women, but it was fun, even with my 7yr old ds whining the whole time!

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

I'm back. I rarely watch t.v., but yesterday I actually got the remote for a little while. I've never ventured past channel 100 before, so I thought I'd take a look. I discoved FitTV and some guy who has a low carb cooking show!! Does anyone watch it? I don't remember the name of it, but he's lost 50+ pounds and was a chef before he started low carbing. It was really fun to watch! I just might have to get the remote more often!

Edited to add: Just looked it up. His name is Blaine. http://fittv.discovery.com/fansites/blaine/blaine.html

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

I missed breakfast this morning, we were so rushed to get to church all I could grab wa a chunk of cheese...no time to cut it even I literally bit A hunk out of the block, lol.

Better than nothing I guess. Did have a lovely salmon lunch though.

So induction (3rd time around) was over friday and the final count is 10 lbs down. Not as impressive as the 20 I lost in induction 1st and 2nd time around but hey, what did I expect. Oh well. Now if I can just keep from getting pregnant, I will be able to stick to it. Hey...Dont they make stuff for that?, lol

Too funny, too funny, too funny!!! That's exactly why I went off this diet the last time! And I just asked dh to check out some of that stuff at the store. He's there now.

LOVE THIS! Thanks for the giggle! This is exactly why I got off from Atkins the last time around
We DID take care of that ever happening again - hubby was snipped....

...twice

Long story, but true! I'm sure he'll be so glad that I shared that with everyone!

Have a good one!

Re: Roll Call Sunday 2/17

Hi all!
I'm sorry I'm so late checking in. I went to early church, went for a walk then worked a few hours as a favor to my boss and co workers as it is crazy busy and we are needing extra nurses right now with the flu epidemic and measle flare...

Anyways, home again, dh made barb b q chicken. I stopped at the health food store and bought some probiotics for me and my dad... crazy expensive. I can't believe my ear still hurts after 3 rounds of antibiotics...???? wtheck is up with that? I think I need to see and ENT specialist... maybe I need ear tubes ha ha! at my age that would be kind of funny. Anyways, I'm hoping the probiotics will strengthen my immune system and my body will fight off whatever I've got on it's own. I'm tired of antibiotics.
