Have a GREAT weekend, everyone! We are heading to Nashville for some fun in the rain (isn't it supposed to be sun?). The kids are really excited because Saturday we are going to watch some basketball games - they will get to see a lot of their classmates this way.

Stay warm, dry, OP, etc this weekend! I will be checking in by Tuesday!

Have fun Terry!

Hi Terry,

Just wanted to let you know, I have removed my journal for now I am very sad about it, but I don't intend to stay gone!!!! I'm going to lay low for a while, let the stupid google thing die and then start up again.

In the meantime, I'll just live at everyone else's journals until I have a new home!!!!

Sunny

have a great trip!! see any cute country stars, get a pic for me

Sorry - I didn't see anyone this time, Jen. When we lived there though, I was tripping over them all of the time! I guess that's what happens when you are not a country music fan, but your dh is. He would always get upset at who I would see.

We are back. Had a GREAT trip. Saturday was spent watching basketball games - dd got to see a lot of her friends. I got to see a lot of my team. It was really fun. There are just great kids and I miss them all.

We had some good food (got to visit my favorite restaurant) and now I am back in action!

I weiged/measured myself this morning (well - at 11:30 am when I could finally drag myself from bed) and started WWing. I am hopefully for a good week! The first one always is, isn't it?

I am off to get the kids from school before this headache gets worse. Happy Monday all!!

Hi Terry!

Your nephew is so adorable! Thanks for sharing the pics!

Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend but needed yesterday to recover. Hope you're feeling all better today and are ready to tackle February with WW gusto! This is the month, Terry! You're gonna be trimmer by March!

Hope you have a wonderful Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday everyone!
Yesterday finished up well. I was OP - hitting 24 points for the day, but I missed my water by 1. 7 glasses was good though, since it was the first day truly back on WW.
Today I have been struggling with the munchies. I am not hungry - I just want something in my mouth! What's up with that? It seems I have developed an oral fixation while I wasn't WWing? I have chewed an awful lot of sugarfree gum today though.
Dinner is planned so today should be another good day!

Off to check some journals! I will try to get to as many as possible.

Finished with journals, so I decided to add a ticker to my signature. I think I am going to go with a short term goal, since I like seeing things move!

I've had the munchies this week also - not a WW thing, more boredom than anything; at least for me you know the same ho hum day.

Have a wonderful rest of your week if I don't get to check back in on you!

Welcome Back Terry! Sounds like you had a great weekend! I think for the munchies on WW the best things for me are low point things I can have LOTS of so I can trick myself into thinking I had more than I did. Fiber is also a big help. For snacks with low points I like the Creamy Ranch soy crisps (25 and they are big!) for 2 points, grapes 1 point, apple - 1 point, WW Smart Ones Ice Cream - 1-2 points depending on the type, another good one when you are really hungry is one piece of light WW bread with 1 Tbsp peanut butter for 3 points.

It seems like lots of us have the munchies this week. Maybe it is the weather. Glad you had a great trip.

 

[lizdotcom99]

Terry,
Yeah for you and a great week!! I am so with you on the small goals....it makes it so much easier to do little chunks than a big hunk!!!

Looks like I will be in your neck of the woods next week. I have a little layover in St.Louis Thursday!! Too bad it is only for a half an hour

I don't know why I was NOT thinking about the heat in August.....it never occured to me that the 1/2 marathon could be REALLY hot. Thanks for the realization NOT!!! But regardless of the weather, I am gonna do it!! I have a point to prove....to myself and others!!
You are more than welcome to come and cheer us all on though. It would be great to meet you!!!

Hope you have a great day! Keep up the great work...and thanks for the smilie sights!! I love them!!!

 

[DoeWDW]

Oh, the munchies!! I get them when I'm stressed or anxious! Sugar free gum really helps, but often exercise helps even more. After a good workout, I usually don't feel like eating much.

Hope you have a great Wednesday!

Hi Terry - Just stopping in to say hi! Glad you had a great trip! Have a great day.

 

[sharoncity]

Your off to a great start with your WW terry! Good for you!

Another munchie I like to keep in the house is microwave popcorn. I can eat LOTS for very few points and it feels like I am indulging!

Your ticker looks nice and I am sure its gonna be cruisin in no time!!

TTFN- Sharon
