Thanks Kel....may be there already even I dont get on the scale too often. Its almost as if Im waiting for the day it stops going down and starts going up again like when I lost weight before LOL. Im already lower than I have been in many years. Will do a monday morning weigh in.....my 16 pants are starting to hang on me so maybe Im there
Was beautiful here too....70s and sunny. The trees are starting to turn. I Love the Fall.....it just sucks that winter comes next. But Im planning to enjoy everyday before than happens!
Thanks again for all the times you have taken the time to answer a question for me. I cant believe its been 5 1/2 months already. Time goes scarey fast dosnt it?!

Got a few pics but of course, at&t is being a pita this weekend and my pics won't go for some reason

We even skipped the shuttle back to the car so, I'm pretty happy about that!

Today was just busy busy busy, but most of it was sitting on my behind in a car.. we went to burlington to shop.. stopped at two farmers markets.. yummmm and visited for a very few minutes with hubby's youngest.. sadly she couldn't get away for her break as expected. Had lunch at quiznos... Their little 2 dollar sammie is just perfectly sized (and priced!!)

Foot is a tad sore tonight but overall- great weekend. Hopefully scale won't be too terrible tomorrow


Soooo........what'd you buy me?!

hmm okay so let me see.. hubby bought me two knitting mags, and he bought himself a book for work.. joomla web page designs or some such, while at barnes and nobles. Man, I miss having a large bookstore handy.

We bought 4 tomatoes, 1 bunch radishes, 4 ears of corn, 2 blue hubbard squash, 1 head of lettuce, 3 lemons, 1 onion loaf, 1 WW & honey loaf, a box of cereal, 1 sausage, 10 Fage, 6 SF yogurt, 1 Skim milk, 1 OJ, 2 lbs of ground turkey breast, 1 whole chicken, 1 jar salsa, 1 cabot FF sour cream, 1 jar black bean & garlic sauce, 1 jar SF relish.. 3 newspapers, 1 canister of decaf coffee, 1 creamer, 1 bag of potatoes, 5 cans of crushed tomato/tomato puree, 1 can of tomato sauce. 3 peppers- 1 habenero and 2 jalepeno.

That's all I can remember. We also had lunch out, at quizno's as mentioned above. OH, I bought a pair of size 5/6 undies 'boy shorts' style.

I guess, you'll have to be happy with a good salad and some chili.. we ate the roast chicken- garlicy and delicious!

Hubby is taking me to some wool/fiber thingie tomorrow morning in St. Jay... and some friends are involved in a vaudville act and are doing a show in a nearby town tomorrow night so Another busy day! Sunday- rain is due here- it'll be a good day for football! lol

It's supposed to FREEZE tonight- it is currently 35.. brrrrr

Thanks for being so supportive, and for posting your own story.

But I'd just like to mention that the forecast high this weekend is 105.

Have a good one.
