            I am happy to report another cheat free day for me. I wanted to thank everyone again for the support and advice about going to a restaurant tomorrow for my Anniversary. A couple days ago, I was really feeling nervous about this but thanks to everyone's advice, I really am feeling much more confident now!!! What a great idea kislandmom about reading a magazine before dinner- I'm sure the hubby would appreciate some adult language for one day!!! Also, I have to admit it will be nice to enjoy dinner without the balloons the waiter/waitress brings to the kids that get bopped on my head when I'm trying to take a drink. Oh, and then there's the classic, "Mommy I have to go Poo-Poo", so loud everyone in the restaurant knows. My favorite is the "Uh-Oh mommy", and I'm left embarrassed to either find they had an accident in their underwear or a major spill from the table. That's always loads of fun!!! I won't be able to check in tomorrow but I will when I get the chance on Sunday. I hope everyone has a GREAT cheat free weekend!!!!!

              Good morning everyone!

              It seems like everyone is doing so good. The boss is up today, so I can't write much. I've got to be "busy".

              I'm still doing good.

              Hope everyone has a great cheat-free day! Woohoo on it being Friday!

                Well, I got a nice visit from the whoosh fairy, three and a half pounds , which made my day !!! That was a very nice surprise this morning for sure. That puts me back down to 237. I had seen 236.5 my first week and then by week two just before I fell off the wagon, I was back up to 239 which was frustrating as I was not doing anything differant. I am excited to be back down and look forward to seeing the twenties soon. I will be very relieved to leave the thirites for sure, the farther away from the forties I get the better I will feel !!! THis is the first whoosh I have had in a long time, at least one that big and I was not expecting it at all !!
                I hope everyone has a great day today !!!

                        I made it through another day! It's not over yet but I am so looking forward to Kat's Deep Dish Pizza recipe that I am cooking tonight. I'm not sure if my kids will eat it but that just leaves more for me. Kat - when re-heating do you use the microwave or the oven?


                        Glad to see everyone is doing so well. I am planning on reading my book to refresh on the rungs. I will be moving to veggies on Monday. Wish me luck.

                        Have a good Friday everyone.

                          Howdy! Howdy!

                          It is so exciting to see the pounds coming off! (I especially like it when it surprises us with a whoosie!! -- Right Booklady?)

                          Kislandmom, on reheating the pizza, we usually put it in the toaster oven and sometimes if I think it might be dry, I spray some PAM on it (cooking spray, butter flavor) just to give it a little moisture.

                          Thanks, Sharon, for the sweet words! You're always so nice!!

                          Well, can you believe ANOTHER week is just about through? It is amazing how time flies and how much closer we get to our goals by being cheat free! Again, I'm so thankful that Mayor Mari started this thread. (For those that are new, she's on vacation right now.)

                          Here's to another wonderful weekend cheatfree and the start of a new, exciting week where our clothes will be looser, inches lost and poundage slipping away!

                          Yee Haw!

                            I am looking forward a nice weekend ON PLAN. Last weekend we blew it and I will not make that mistake again. I would have a three week blinkie if we had not blown it and I want to earn that one year blinkie so bad, I am not gonna let myself go off plan again and have to start over again. Sunday I will get my one week again, so it will be a great start for the new week !!!
                            I hope everyone has a great weekend and hope the whoosh fairy makes some stops for all of you too, I sure enjoyed mine today, and had certainly not expected it !!!

                                Yeah Becca! Another pound down the drain!! Woo Hoo!!

                                Hey, everyone, how about "rep a friend day" and let's help rep everyone who doesn't have at least 10 rep points...! (If you don't know what this is, click here: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/showthread.php?t=29463&page=1&pp=10)

                                I'm going to search out those who don't have 10 points and rep them now. Maybe we can help them up their score.

                                Have a nice evening!
