No problem Sweetie. I have had to get myself back on here a few times lately. Been so busy lately.

Need to kick myself in the butt I think. Never thought I would be afraid of actually being skinny again. Even though I want it I catch myself not wanting it too for all kinds of stupid reasons. Yep I said stupid. I got to start sticking to this for my health and not worry about the weight coming off. Next bite into mouth is going to be good for me. SMILE.

I know exactly how you are feeling..I have been down that road before...but trust me..being healthier and skinny..is much better

Yeah I know it is. Which is why I said I need to kick myself in the butt. laugh. Now I have even more reason to get it off. My daughter came over last night and asked me to be her Matron of Honor. A few months ago she talked to me about wedding stuff and she thought I was supposed to be Matron of Honor because I was her mom and I told her nope that it was usually a friend or a sister but that if she wanted me to be I would be. So last night when she came over she asked me to be her Matron of honor. They still aren't sure if they are doing it this summer or next or sometime between those.

That's wonderful. My youngest son is finally getting married this coming fall. He is 35. I am still holding my breath to see if he will go through with it since he's had quite a few romances. Ha ha.

She is my oldest and she will be 22 years old July 4th.

My son will be 21 years old on August 5th but I don't see him even dating anytime soon. He's got Aspergers Autism and ADD and doesn't show any interest in having a girlfriend after his middle school/high school sweetie decided she didn't want to date him.

They are both doing pretty good makes me proud.

Laugh just realized I came and posted on everyone else's journals last few day but never posted in my own.

I've been on plan went to a E2L potluck loved it. I'm going to be going to a raw vegan potluck soon I think that sounds like a lot of fun.

Yesterday hubby and I walked to garden and back twice which is a total of a mile of walking. first time we weeded for 2 hours second time for about an hour. Between the 2 times we went on a 25 mile bike ride. Love my bike rides. We are talking about getting me a road bike so I can keep up with people on our bike rides better.

WOOT!!! I was 240.5lbs this morning. I'm officially out of the morbid obesity zone and into the severely obese zone. I'm going to get that word obese off my charts all together I am I am.

Been eating mainly greens and fruit this week with a little quinoa and beans in my soup.

Awesome!

Woo Hoo! You are doing great!

(_\_) (_/_) (_\_) (_/_) (_\_) (_/_) HAPPY BUTT DANCE!!!!

Way to go, ROSIE!!! Congratulations! You're really rocking it!!!

Rosie, you go! so happy for you. I know you feel great!

I need to lose what I want to weigh now. laugh.

And you will do it too! So impressive, and I love your bike rides. My Dh is going to get my bike up and running for me, it has been hanging upside down for yrs (!) in garage and now is dry rot, so it needs some work, and new tires, but will do it! Hey, I am involved with E2 pot lucks here too, with my vegan family doc. This is my second time to be a coach and it is such fun to get together with new peeps who want to do this WOE.... and the food is fantastic. they are called Healthy Eating Adventures and it really keeps me going!
I am finally down to 165, and about to be normal wt soon. I cannot believe it! without the McDougall plan I'd never have gotten here for sure.

Way to go!!! Hope he gets it going for you soon. We did a 36 mile bike ride yesterday though I forgot to eat before we went and ended up feeling a little funny so we had to stop and get something at a store. I used to have panniers I carried food in with last bike going to have to get some for current bike but right now afraid to do so because hubby is talking about getting me a road bike so I can keep up with everyone.
