Roll Call. Oct.19,02 Cruisers Continued...

[Schrolls]

Garry, Welcome Back. Now I understand. What would we do without you to explain the important things in life?

Good moring everyone. Hope you all have a great day.

This is Marchioness Fresh-as-a-Daisy signing off!

Later!

Good Morning!!

Geeessss have I been busy the past couple of days!

Patty- Your post crack me up about the baby name book.
I started laughing out loud and eveyone around me looked at
me like I was crazy. I think the only reason you are not a Queen
is because Dutchess's are thinner then Queens.

Laurie I am soooo sorry to hear about your Dad. My prayers are with you and your family.

I am soooooo ready for a Disney vacation!! Between these mean people I deal with and the cold weather. I am ready!

Good morning all. Garry, we were about to send out a search and rescue team. Glad you are back. Wear boxers briefly was a goal in your pre-marriage years? Yea, right. You still have that as motto.

I like the way you prepare for the future, Lori. Hopefully that book will enlighten you. I lived it as it came and boy somedays that was difficult. It was never about our girls but it was always about the teachers. Sorry Julie.

By the way, gotta love that pic of Jiminy, Julie. He's so cute! The names were quite appropriate for some but me???????

Hey, I need all of your help and was wondering if anyone would be interested in some sort of "weight loss club".
I have to lose weight. Not only for health reasons (nothing yet) but also for the wedding and the new cruise. My self esteem is VERY low and I just need help. I don't have lots of ideas, but I thought like once a week we could weigh in and report our loss and hopefully not a gain. Some of you this won't even interest as you don't need to lose weight. We could be there (as we always are) to lend support and ideas. I feel that if I post that I didn't lose or I gained that the embarrassment would take over and that I would be more "true" to a diet. Anybody interested?

By the way, I looked up Marchioness and it says "a woman who holds the rank of marquess in her own right". I can handle that! It is just the "because I said so" part that I am not so sure of.

 

[Mickey02'sMom]

Sandy, I am with you. I put all back on over the cruises, Christmas and going to Texas where my daughter was a very bad influence....lol.

I keep saying I am going back to Curves but haven't gotten there yet.....set the rules...I am in

 

[Mickey02]

Sandy-Count me in too!! I have a Disney Vacation in Dec
a Disney Cruise and a Wedding. Help I need support!!!

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Oh heck Sandy. I just sold you a bunch of cookies for cryin out loud. How else can I help?

 

[wildernessgirl]

Sandy, count me in on the weight loss thing. No comment from you Garry!

So Barb, are you telling me I'm a tub-a-blub since I'm the Queen shakes her booty? LOL

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Just like you, Lori. You are always there for me. Maybe not in the good sense, but you are always there! I can freeze the cookies, remember? That was your selling point! You asked how you can help? Well, LET'S GO TO LUNCH!

Great Sally and Barb! I need help. Do you have any ideas? I just know that I want to weigh in at least once a week and report the pounds whether it be up or down. One of us can keep a log of the weekly results. I can do that. I DON'T want to give out my exact weight but I will give out the amount of pounds I want to lose. I think that once a month we need to take measurements and report total loss there as well. We could weigh in every Wednesday and report the measurement results on the first Wednesday of each month. We can do it via the thread or email the weight loss group.

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Julie, you and I cross posted. The group is up to 4 now. We can do this.

 

[Schrolls]

Count me in. I am starting a Weight Watchers at Work program next month and it too will meet on Wednesdays. Like you, Sandy, I don't want to give out my weight but I'll give my progress (THERE BETTER BE PROGRESS). I have gotten way out of control on the eating and need to stop NOW. Maybe I'll have tips to share with you all from the WW@W program. You guys will probably be better support that WW@W anyway!

Gotta run out to Office Depot for office supplies. I'll try to check back in later this evening.

 

[Schrolls]

Where's everybody tonight? I keep checking in and no one has posted since my last one. Oh well. I don't mind talking to myself.

Here's a good tip for my friends trying to lose a few:
When you need that chocolate "ice cream" fix, have a Smart Ones Chocolate treat bar. They aren't bad and they seem to satisfy my sweet tooth and chocolate craving.

Enough from me. It's time for someone else to post.

Later!

 

[wildernessgirl]

I'm here! I've been busy trying to get me kitchen in some type of order since I now have cabinets! The kitchen isn't finished, but at least I have a sink and a DISHWASHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been with out the dishwasher since Dec. 2001! Believe it or not!

Well, gonna go. Makenzie is now sick with a real bad stuffy nose, deep cough, low fever and a stomach ache! And she just got up!I sure hope no one else gets this! No school for her today! They sent her home on Tuesday.

Bonnie, I didn't mean not to answer you today, I was on the phone finishing a pampered chef show and I went to message you back and pressed the wrong one, SORRY! I do want to chat with you. Hopefully today if the sickies don't take up all my time.

TTFN everyone! Darren, what is the lastest on your cruise status?

Argggh, she speaks the truth mateys!! You should see me kitchen now!!

 

[Schrolls]

Good Morning.

Nice to see you checking in so early Garry. Hope the streets are being nice to you lately.

Bonnie, where are you???

Anyone hear from Darren. Wasn't he supposed to fly out today if his visa came?

Later!

 

[jiminyC_fan]

Good morning everyone. My, but this is a quiet place! Where is everyone? Did I scare everyone off with the dirty words weight loss?

My brother needs some prayers. Yesterday afternoon he was taken to the hospital with chest pains. The tests so far have come back inconclusive of a heart attack. They plan a series of three tests today, 8 hours apart. From that they should be able to detect whether or not he had a heart attack. He is only 44 and doesn't have the family curse of being heavy. He is quite slender. We definitely have a family curse of heart problems, however. I thought it odd that I would bring up weight loss yesterday and he had a heart attack on the same day. That even made me want to lose weight even more!

I went out and bought a scale that weighs even in tenths. I remember when I lost weight before through the Weight Loss Clinic that they did that. It helped so much to even know that you lost just .2 or whatever. At least it was a loss. So far I have only got it to weigh .0 or .5 so if if doesn't relect any of the remaining tenths then I will return it.

Time for the wee ones. Take care and stay warm. More snow on the way for us.

 

[DreamsDoComeTrue]

Hi guys. Just checking in. Nothin' to say. (How weird is THAT)
Oh wait, yes I do have one thing I got an email notice that my order is shipped. The other thing was an "Easy Piano Classics" music book. I'm trying to teach myself how to play piano. OK, the mystery is over.
See ya.

 

[wildernessgirl]

Hi everyone! Sorry to hear about your brother Sandy. Pixie Dust to him and the rest of your family! Your brother will be our thoughts and prayers! Please keep us posted on his condition.

Makenzie is still sick and even seems to be getting worst (her cough that is). She has a doctor's appointment tomorrow morningbut is she can't stop coughing tonight, even after cough medicine the doctor told me to take her up to the emergency room. I'm sure she will be ok, just that mommy worry thing.... (and daddy too!)

 

[Schrolls]

Pixie dust and prayers to Sandy's brother and to MaKenzie and prayers still to Laurie and her family.

Weight Loss, Weight Loss, Weight Loss - Sandy, it didn't scare me away. Now we just have to follow through!!!

Bonnie?????? Where are you??????

Darren - are you still around??????

Lori - good luck with the piano skills!!

Later!

 

[Denine]

I desperately need to lose weight. It has been so hard with this horrible winter and Kaleigh. I barely have time for the treadmill and when I do, I don't feel like it.

I am better. Whatever it was, it is gone.

Pixie dust for your brother, Sandy!

Makenzie: Get better soon and stop worrying mommy!

I need vacation now!!!!!!!!!!!
