Doing a very, very happy dance!

I'm down another 3.2 pounds this week, which means I have JUST squeaked into my goal for Florida, down a total of 16.4 pounds, to reach 169.8. I wanted to be under 170 when we left.

WOOOOOHOOOOOO!



Now...what will I set as my next short-term goal....hmm. I'll have to think about that one!

Thanks for all the ongoing encouragement. I have only a few days before we leave for Florida...

Love,

Kris

CONGRATULATIONS KRISTINA!

You made your goal. You will have such a wonderful trip! You must be excited.

Oh, I wanted to tell you something. At least in the US, playdoh contains dry milk. Katie was reacting, and we couldn't figure out why. She would play with the playdoh and rub her eyes. It was enough for her to get eczema aroung her face. Thought I'd pass it on.

Congrats again,
Beth

Congratulations Kris! I'm so happy for you that you reached your goal of getting under 170 before your trip! That is wonderful! I hope you have a fantastic vacation!

Thank you so much, my friends! I really appreciate all the well-wishes and encouragement. I confess I'm having a touch of "I'm on vacation" relaxation already; temptation looms large for treats, but I'm doing okay...I was searching everywhere for a prepackaged box of Uncle Ben's cheddar broccoli rice tonight. I KNOW it was in the cupboard a few days ago and I WANTED it!! I shouldn't have it, because: a) it's probably six points a cup or so; and b) I'm not supposed to have dairy...

but oh, did I crave it. And it was GONE! DH had to have either tossed it or eaten it. I can hardly believe he would have made it, he doesn't like that one very much. But then, I haven't fed him rice once in the last 4-6 weeks, so he might have been desperate....lol!

Beth, thanks for letting me know about the PlayDoh. Since she has more of a severe intolerance than an anaphalaxis, I think we're safe, but it might make for a good excuse the avoid the messy stuff! Do you need the recipe for homemade PlayDoh?

BTW, although I don't recommend it, food poisoning is apparently also an effective means of short-term weight loss. Wednesday night was horrific for about two hours....at least it was over and done fast. I'm on midnights now, so I don't even know when to consider it really morning and weigh myself...we'll see how I'm doing on Monday morning before we go.

I'll be checking in briefly here and there from Fort Myers, I expect. After that, please do watch for me on the trip reports board, and of course, I'll be here as well, moving on along my ticker!

God bless, all!

Kris, that little girl modeling your daughter's dress is absolutely precious! So is the dress, she looks just like a little pixie for real! You will have to post a picture of Meredith in it so we can see how adorable she looks as well!

 

[geetey]

Kris
If I don't "see" you before you leave, have a GREAT trip!!! I am looking forward to your trip reports.

 

[storybookmum]

I think this'll be it! Monday morning, we're outta here!

Thanks, Michelle, isn't she beautiful? She's a sweet little girl, too. She and Meredith are good buddies. I know Meredith's going to love that dress. I can't wait to see her face, and Caroline's when she sees her new Cinderella dress.

I just treated myself to a home dye job, but YIKES, I just realised that my half-hour is up and it'll be time to rinse right when I should be walking out the door to work! Urgh, bad timing! I'll have to hustle!

Laughing at myself...getting ready to stretch out and relax for six days before Disney Disney Disney....

God bless all, see you soon.

Kris

I just wanted to wish you a safe journey and an incredible trip. The dress is darling. We'll want all the details of the trip.

Have a wonderful "relaxing" vacation. Look forward to reading your trip report. Try and stay OP, but if you don't, don't worry about it...you'll get back on the "wagon" when you get home.

 

[Princess Michelle]

Bye Kris! Have a safe and magical trip!
