Could not agree more...I have had many "candy bar lunches" in the past couple weeks. I KNOW what I am doing... (nt) - tripntwinmom 06/29/2009 08:02

how true. Growing up I was often told that i wouldn't amount to anything. Well, even now knowing how untrue that is, I allow it to stop or slow me down from trying new things. (nt) - SevenMs 06/29/2009 12:54

I have been off track this summer....Have not gained, but have not lost either. Holding steady at my 97.5 loss which is so very frustrating since I am just knocking on 100's door. I just have had so much going on. Now, one of our a/c units has gone out...:( I pray it is NOT expensive. My house is only 6 years old! (nt) - tripntwinmom 06/29/2009 07:54

I know how ya feel! I got down to 6 lbs from my final goal and I just couldn't push myself farther. Now im around 10-12 lbs away and have been holding there for 6 months :) But hey, just dont start undoing all your hard work!! 97 lbs is still amazing and its a lot of life you put back into your body! (nt) - Amanda 06/29/2009 11:23

I totally agree and am so proud to be in the same LOK circle as the two of you.... one day to be in the same weight loss ranks! Until then, you're an inspiration and source of encouragement for me for what is REALLY important, and that's HEALTHY LIVING. (nt) - pbjfcs 06/29/2009 11:31

The job is the motivation but maybe i will lose my last 10 lbs!! I am very excited! (nt) - Amanda 06/29/2009 11:47 (3)

Wow! Good for you! That is TOTALLY inspiring for me...I need to get off of my duff too. I have got to do something different as I do not get to get the same exercise in summer school as I did during the regular year...Trying to get a YMCA schedule set up with the kids... (nt) - tripntwinmom 06/29/2009 12:45

I don't have the same sort of things keeping me busy that i had last year where I lost all my weight. I had a lot of yardwork and well, I finished 99% of it last year lol. so im trying new ideas now (nt) - Amanda 06/29/2009 16:26

Ah Uh hmm. ***clears throat*** (nt) - pbjfcs 06/30/2009 03:08

Sorry 'bout that Michelle. Here we should be laying out the red carpet for you, and little pipsqueaks like Miss Manda go disrespecting elders on the board who just might have eyesight issues for all she knows! (nt) - pbjfcs 06/30/2009 03:14

its hard for you to see when your eyes are looking at the bottom of a box of chocolate covered cherries (nt) - Amanda 06/30/2009 03:30

BLECH!!!!!!!!!!! Chocolate covered cherries??? You've been out in the sun too long. Now, wave a DQ vanilla cone under my nose, and that would be a different story... (nt) - pbjfcs 06/30/2009 04:30

ok you two. Play nice. You need to be making a good impression and setting a good example for the newbies. Besides you are both wrong.... Almond Joys are the best.... and coconut and dark chocolate are healthy right? (nt) - Shawna 06/30/2009 08:35

Hmmm. I think she's on to something here... (nt) - pbjfcs 06/30/2009 09:21

I second the BLECH!!!!!!!! However, I think I would prefer Eddy's Mint ice cream to DQ vanilla. (nt) - SevenMs 06/30/2009 10:09

chocolate moose tracks is by far superior.. if its going to stick to your hips make sure its worth it ROFL (nt) - Amanda 06/30/2009 14:19

you gotta think about what you eat... when you don't, thats where things pile up quick. But instead of thinking of terms of calories etc, think about it in terms of portions and quanity vs quality-- (nt) - Amanda 06/30/2009 03:33
