Thanks, but didn't do the egg. I got up and the egg wasnt sounding so good. I had 3 tbs of unsweetened applesauce. Still, chugging water.. Tomorrrow will bring a new day. Hopefully, a a better menu.

Cher,
you look great, my gosh your ankles are TINY.....I have an ab lounge and Love it..It works wonders on my abs. Not that you can tell from my picts, BUT-- it was worse. It makes crunches soooooo much easier, and it works!!!

Abs... what's that... I can't find them anywhere! Gary's right... I need a gutectomy! Strict tummy exercises coming up soon!

It's OK... This picture makes me even more determined to get my body back!

Good Morning All.

Well I am off to see a few clients this am. Will check in when I get back. Feeling better this am, will see what the morning brings.

Tonight will be difficult, I am going to a pampered chef party, and teh treat is an Oreo Cookie Ice Cream Dessert!! YIkes!!..Oh well, I will do fine. My neighbor is well aware that I am on the diet, and thinks I am doing great. So she will not pressure me. She is tiny and has even started eating low carb as well..

I did cheat last night, around bed time I had a flavor ice freezer pop.. Always just what I need when I am sick.. That is going to be the tough part. Finding new foods that settle in a sick tummy. I am so used to toast, saltines, ect for my nausea. Now, if this is going to be my WOE for life, what foods will replace them??? I do have some splenda sweetened frozen fruit bars as well. Just wasnt up for that last night, grab the quickest easiest, most soothing thing.

Today is a new day. I am planning on lots of water, poached egg for breakfast, veggie platter with ranch dip sitting in frig if I feel like snacking, and chicken and fiddle heads for supper..

Hope yo uall have a great day!!

*grabs water and heads out door!!!

Good Morning everyone,
I woke up to a one pound weight loss YaY!!!!
10 pounds here I come...
Changing my picture so it only shows here once...that was so hard to look at...lol
But, happy that I took a look at reality and now I have a current photo for my before and after. It really is a great way to see the progress.


Tonya - Welcome, we would love to have you join the group! Being in Myrtle Beach in a swimsuit sounds like great motivation to me. I was just thinking that maybe by the end of summer I could wear a swimsuit again.

Bjs... Have fun & productive meetings with your clients this morning. Maybe you could bring something really great and LC to that party tonight so that you have a nice treat for yourself. I use to be really good at having replacements for some of the old treats. My favorites were the LC cheesecakes that I made and kept in the refrigerator. I need to find the recipe for them. They are great!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Well, I am back. Ihad my poached egg, and some cheese. I have drank 32 oz of water and on my second 32oz. I have done 50 crunches on my ab lounge. Will do 50 more later.

I have chicken slow roasting for supper.

I will jsut snack well before I go, not really a thing you can bring your own too. It is a cooking/cooking supply party, so the party revolves around making a recipe. This one is the oreo cookie thing...

I do have a dinner Thurs night at in law. My SIL is bringing her BF home from Boston. First time meeting him.. I always take my imfamous raspberry cheesecake.. I have been pondering how to make it low carb.. I would love to see your recipe Cher if you can find it to share!!

Welcome Tonya! Thank goodness I have a while before I need to worry about swimsuit season, here in Maine I may venture into on by August, lol!!

Welcome Noorian!! Better late then never!

Re: Lose 10 Pounds By Fathers Day May 15th - June 18

Bjs,

Great work with the ab crunches and the water !WoW
Now, that's determination!

We will all be with you in spirit tonight...lol. We know you will do great. I will work on finding that LC cheesecake recipe... it was really good! Your Chicken sounds great. I really need to learn to cook more! I did learn how to cook that deep dish pizza (yum) and a lot of LC sweets last time. I brought the deep dish pizza to every dinner I went to. No one ever knew it was LC. They always complemented me on what a great pizza dish it was. Then, I told them it was Suzanne Sommers recipe.

Hi guys! Welcome to Noorian and Tburns! Ok, I'm one pound away from my siggy weight, which means I lost one pound overnight...YAY! I was bad on Mother's Day and I'm guessing 2 days to get rid of it, but I didn't change my siggy up!!

bjs...don't worry about the popsicle, you're sick and you need to eat what's right for you. Next time grab the splenda one! I'm proud of you for admitting it to us as well!Are you feeling better today? Good luck at the chef party tonight. You can handle it.

Feeling better today, thanks. I am getting ready forthe party now.. Just filled up on veggie and chicken, so I won't be so tempted. Plus, although I love Oreo's, BUT the recipe includes ice cream as well. Well, there ya go, turn off for me, I am not an ice cream Fan...So---YAY!!

So, yeh, feeling bettah!! So, no excuse to cheat tonight... But flavor ice-- man it does hit the spot when I am sick... Guess it could have been worse~

Hope you all had a sucessful day as well. I need to do another 50 crunches and then ready for the party!!!
