Hey hey everyone! Sissie, let me just say that you should join a bowling league with a score of 202!! My friend Kelly bowls, and I'm sure they'd LOVE to have you! :) Great job! No matter what you do, getting up and moving around counts!! :) I went grocery shopping today, and you can bet your bottom dollar that I'm counting that! LOL
Yesterday I was back down, today I'm back up. I still haven't reached 250 even, but I'm not giving up yet... these last few days I've had a visitor, you know the one, our wonderful "Aunt Flo" that makes us hold onto water, crave salty things and chocolate... so I figure if I'm not bouncing back up to where I was a couple weeks ago I must be doing something right. Exactly what that is, I'm not sure, but I'll just keep doing whatever I've been doing and call it good. How's that sound? LOL
We went to a wedding this weekend - my husband officiated again... so there was reception food and a few "adult" beverages. My eldest son drove us home, though - I don't like drinking when I'm away from home if I'm the one responsible for getting everyone home safely... so I let William take the wheel and we made it home safe & sound. :) All in all, we had a wonderful time and I didn't gain a bunch of weight, so I was happy twice over! (At least) The wedding was for the daughter of one of my best friends... this will be the second wedding my husband has performed for one of my best friends' kids. Pretty cool, huh?? :)
So officially, this morning I was 252.0 again. I'm getting rather tired of seeing that particular number on the scale. I'm hoping when Aunt "Flo" goes home I can make some real headway. Tomorrow we head East to Ypsilanti, MI for my husband to perform another wedding ceremony... he's getting pretty popular! :)
It's so awesome to hear everyone's progress!! You all keep up the GREAT work! :)
Mega hugs!!

Just checkin in:)
good evening everyone, just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing so far this week. Tammy great job on your loss, and Mel I know you are doing good also:)
so far this week I have used the WII Fit yesterday and today! yesterday was 15 minutes. today I did the bowling against my sister and nephew and I am Proud to say I WHOPPED them LOL I bowled a 202!! then of course nephew beat me good in golf LOL but the main part is we played for 2 hours without me even giving out to the point that I had to quit cause I could not get up and down out of my chair! now the 15 minutes that I do on the Fit is a killer! i am doing as much as I can on the balance cause my back, legs and knees are what hurt me the worse. and I want to say I am doing a little better.
have any of you seen the site http://www.livestrong.com/ ? I found it last week though facebook, someone I can't remember posted it there. it is pretty neat. I am keeping track of my calories on the "my Plate" page. not doing much else there yet. I am coming out almost 700 calories short each day.
ok talk more later
hugs
sissie

Good Morning .......
Well........... I'm on Week #3 now and am down 5lbs! YAY ME!!!
I am so proud of you Sissie and Mel!!!! You two are doing great.. both with weight and attitude!!! Good for you!
I have been doing real good with my calorie count... could have done better this weekend with water intake. Spent alot of time running errands... so I'm counting some of that as exercises.... hehehehee :)
I made a Great pot of chili this weekend and it was only 100 cal per cup... so 2-3 cups is a NICE full bowl... and easy on the calories!
Not sure what we're having tonight... I may make a nice grilled chicken dinner.
you all have a great day!!!!
Check back in tomorrow!
God Bless,

Week Two Weigh IN
Good Morning Ladies,
So as we know I have made Sunday as MY official weekly weigh in date. so this is Sunday and I am Happy to say I am down 9.6 pounds! I am now 317.2
NOW let me tell you I am sure this is not all from being good as I ended up with celulitus in my left leg and it was pretty bad. The Dr has but me on Cephalexin 500 mg. and my leg is look and feeling alot better! so I am sure that is where a lot of the fluid and weight is coming off from. But it is a loss and I am taking it LOL
as for my exericing I have not done anything for the last two day been to sick with a cold I am guessing:( but did get in 4 days of at lease 10 mins so better than nothing Right?
oh also while at the Dr the other day my blood work for the second time came back worse that the first:(( My BS count was at 7.5 and should be below 6.0 so Dr put me on Metformin 500 mg. another GOOD reason to do something about this weight NOW!! and my liver count was up again. not sure what this means but am sure if I work on getting healthy again this will fix itself also:)
My Goals for week 2 are: 15 minute work out 4 days on either the WII Fit or a Walk.
do my best to get at lease 48 oz's of water every day!
Stay OUT of My sisters Sweet Tea!! man I have fallen in love with her tea, BUT she makes it with 2 cups of sugar to a gallon. so I know I do not need that!!
ok so enough about me, how was everyone else's week?
Hugs

Tammy
Woo Hoo!! Way to go Tammy!!!
Yesterday, I was at 251.0... today? well, today showed me at 252.0. So I'm back up a pound. But it's just one pound, and I'm sure I can scare it away. So no worries there. At least I'm not worried about it. We'll just have to see what tomorrow brings!
