Hi All just checking in, half way through the month and I have managed to lose 2 lbs, ok well lost 5, gained 6, lost 3, etc. But I guess every pound lost helps.
Have a great week everybody!

It looks like it was very quiet here today. I hope everyone's off having fun.

I'm leary of most restaurants calorie count, where it's offered.DD has kept a lot of wt off & she stays with 5-6 places she trusts & also has favs she usually orders in each.
Happy anniversary to you. Looks like you know how to lose wt & that's a great thing.Your supper sounds delicious.

But the bowl they brought out was so big and tasted so good I knew it had to be wrong. So I got a to-go box and put over 1/2 in it and enjoyed - really enjoyed the rest. Do you think restraunts really watch and measure the lo-cal menu like they are should? I've gotten things on afew different times that the amounts were not the same as the time before.
Cindy- glad to hear you are getting better.

Dinner will be steak with fresh green beans, salad and onion roasted potatoes. So so good. It has carbs because of the potatoes but not too too bad.
I have been reading the posts and after each one I have been praying for the poster. You guys are always in my prayers!
After all these months I can easily say that you guys are like family to me! Thank you for all the encouragement and love!!

I apologize for not stopping by. Now I have 6 pages to catch up on. I can't believe how busy I have been. Just finished patching my water bed - again. I KNEW I should've replaced that other patch that was there, and I was right. I have several meetings at school this week, Josh has his driving test tomorrow. We practiced parallel parking - he is 5 for 5 - perfect job. I just about have all my travel plans set up for our trip to Boston. I need to start my list for packing. I know my camera needs a new battery. I'm almost done piecing the backing for this bargello. I'd love to have it sandwiched this week, not sure how doable that is.
What is everybody working on? I am down 8# this month - mostly because I've been too busy to eat. I've lost enough weight that I can get my wedding ring on again. I have not done any exercise since my long walk last week. I'm mad at my knees.
I'll try to get caught up with what's happening with the group. Have a successful week!

Lots of 2 pound losses this week, way to go! I haven't gone down this week, but I haven't gone up either.
Missy dinner sounds delish!
Leann great job on the 8 pound loss and the new avatar, looking good!
Plainpat isn't it a good feeling when the scale starts to move again. Especially when it's a downward movement.
I plan to start walking again on Monday, I finally have a real pair of walking shoes that don't hurt. I won a $1,000 shopping spree at a local shoe store. They don't sell the trendy shoes or high heels, just sensible quality shoes. So far I have gotten walking shoes, everyday loafers and a pair of dressier loafers with a heel for job interviews.

lauriejo, lucky you!! That would be so much fun and so practical.
We just got home from our weekend in Iowa. The sweatshirt jacket I made for my mil fit her perfectly and she loved it. I couldn't be happier about that. Now I need to get to packing for my quilt retreat!
