Good morning folks!
We had a nice weekend including a "Evening in Pink" cancer fundraiser event. It was interesting to see so many people dressed up. Many men in pink dress shirts, ladies in every thing from black outfits with pink feathered combs, to a pink prom dress. It was a nice evening, followed by a couple yummy martinis at the hotel restaurant.
The girls stayed at my sisters, and when we went to pick them up, we got the usual "you're too early, why are you here already?" Both girls were dressed up in their cousin Lauren's clothes (she's 12). Kaleigh even told me she wished Lauren was her sister too and that Kaleigh could live at their house, but it would be better if their house was in our town too.
Maybe I should be insulted, but it was funny!
Thanks for the birthday greetings! Glad to hear everybody enjoyed their vacations.
Monica -
hope you feel better soon!
Jackie - thanks for sharing pictures of the cake!
(REMINDER TO MYSELF - look at the pictures in post 2959 since I can't see them at work
)
Deb - glad your legs are improving!
Holly - I hope your feeling better today about your weight loss attempts. You're welcome to try out the Biggest Loser 8 challenge thread in the WISH section. The new one just started, and I find it interesting to read other peoples answers about what motivates them. For me, my weightloss finally started when I hit the point that I wanted to lose weight more than I wanted the junk food. I've hit a plateau when I've not exercised or eaten good enough to keep losing, but I have kept the 20pounds off from the loss in the spring, and I'm getting more conscientious about my eating & exercising again, so hopefully the scale will start creeping down again. You have proven you can do when you want to!
Have you thought about trying karate again? You seemed to be enjoying it in the spring? Maybe your co-worker going to meetings will work for you.
