OK, Stubby, you are being badder than I am so where's your posting??? Confess now and I might be lenient....

Louise Sweeney

I'm a bad girl this week; keep forgetting to check in. So here I am on Thursday, 6/3, finally posting. Oh, well. I'll try to do better next week. Didn't have my computer for part of the day Tuesday and most of Wednesday so I do have an excuse of sorts. Been good on the whole. Could have been better ...

Friday, 5/28, checking in: Doing some housework - vacuuming, dusting, laundry, etc., all that fun stuff. Had a blueberry muffin for breakfast. Not sure about the rest of the day. Hasn't rained so far today so looks good for my walk after my housekeeping duties! Yay! It's Friday - still have a few ch...

Wed. check in, 5/26. Looks like I forgot to check in yesterday. Forgot all about it. Anyways, breakfast today was a blueberry muffin. Maybe have some leftover stew for lunch or maybe chicken and yogurt. So many decisions to make; I'll have to give it serious thought. I am so tired of hearing about B...

Louise Sweeney

Monday 5/24 check in: Had a banana and yogurt plus cup of coffee for breakfast. Don't know about lunch. Plan on making stew later for dinner, yum. Had enough chocolate peanut clusters and reese's pieces to last me until next weekend (probably for the next month but who's counting?) I'm telling mysel...

Louise Sweeney

Well, pooh! So much for my being good for 3 weeks. Still at the same weight. I will try not to eat myself into forgetfulness. After all, I can do this all over again in another 3 weeks. BOO!!!!

Louise Sweeney

Happy Thursday, Karen. Almost time for an S-ing weekend. Too bad your prescriptions are having a bad effect on your weight - bummer! I'm sure that by stopping them for the time being, your body will start to behave itself. I think I'll try to behave this weekend since it doesn't look like I'm doing ...

Louise Sweeney

Thursday, 5/20 check-in Went out for my walk because it was nice and sunny, uh huh. So about a mile out it starts coming down in buckets and then started hailing on me. I was completely soaked by the time I got home. Walk stats: 2.52 miles 304.3 calories 6,411 steps 1 gallon of water accumulated on ...

Louise Sweeney

Tuesday, 5/18. Oh, no, it's take the bottles and cans back day. Bummer. And then the fun of grocery shopping. Be still my heart!
Breakfast - a Jimmy Dean breakfast, it was good.
Lunch - chicken strips and yogurt
Dinner - ???
Haven't decided yet.

Louise Sweeney

Monday 5/17 check-in. So I have had a very S'ing weekend! Love those chocolate-covered peanut clusters. I think I'm now good until next weekend. :roll: Had cereal and banana for breakfast. Not sure about lunch but have taken out some hamburg to thaw to make spaghetti tonight. Will just have to watch...

Louise Sweeney

Saturday - Yippee!! I am having chocolate peanut clusters for breakfast and possibly for lunch too. All this freedom is going to my head, or probably my hips. Whatever, I am going to enjoy my weekend. Went for a walk - gorgeous outside - and according to my nifty little pedometer I did the following...

Louise Sweeney

Friday 5/14 check-in. Just found out I have to drive Larry to Roseburg for an eye exam. Have to be leaving in a few minutes. BARF! Had a muffin for breakfast. Thank I'll take a slice of cold pizza for lunch. Who knows what for dinner? Tomorrow's Saturday - bought some chocolate peanut clusters at Wi...

Louise Sweeney

My advice? Take the rocks out of your pockets when weighing.
Seriously, I have heard that eating more small meals a day (like 4 or 5) and not just having 2 is better for you. Keeps your metabolism up!!
Hang in there.

Louise Sweeney

Thursday check-in:
Breakfast - cereal with banana.
Still have some chicken left so will probably have that for lunch.
Maybe cook a pizza for dinner and have a slice of that.
Beautiful day for a walk.

Louise Sweeney

Wed. check-in (almost forgot about this)
Breakfast - cereal w/banana and milk
lunch - baked chicken breast and grapes
Walked 2.65 miles
dinner - don't know yet - will see what comes up.
yes, the candy bar over the weekend did indeed happen to be one BIG hershey bar...yum, yum.

Louise Sweeney

Monday morning check-in. Started off with cereal and banana. How healthy is that? Kind of gloomy out today but am trying to get my pedometer set up. I hate doing that kind of stuff!! But I do like when I'm finished. Had a pretty good weekend but ate too much candy.

Louise Sweeney

Hi, Karen Sounding fluffy sounds kind of fun. I am trying to figure out how to program my pedometer. Some well-meaning person gave it to me, and I suppose I'll get it set up eventually. Right now I'm still figuring out my stride length. Supposed to take 12 strides, then divide the number of inches b...

Louise Sweeney

Thursday morning check-in. So far today just had breakfast (muffin and yogurt) and am catching up on the shows I taped last night. They keep having shows I like that start at 10 p.m., which is my bedtime, so I have to watch them the next day. Anyway, it's nice and sunny out so hopefully that doesn't...

Louise Sweeney

Hi, Karen, I hope the pedometer worked OK because I'm looking forward to getting my very own for Mother's Day! Hope you're feeling more yourself today - sunshine is always a plus for that. Have a good day and I'll see you tomorrow.

Louise Sweeney

Wed. check-in . . . my oh my the week is flying by. Pretty soon the goood days will be here (I'm talkin Sat & Sun - yippee!). They're so much more fun now that I count them as SPECIAL and I can have whatever I want. Whenevr I feel inclined to cheat, I just say - OK, hold on for a couple more days an...

Louise Sweeney

Tuesday already. Had a muffin for breakfast and eggs and toast for lunch. Today was Winco day so I shopped and returned bottles/cans beforehand. I hate returning bottles and cans but did rake in a little over ten bucks.
Will probably have chicken and yogurt for dinner.

Louise Sweeney

Hi, Karen. How's the 2 meals a day working out for you?
I am clicking right along with my No S'ing and already looking forward to next Saturday.
Got to go sign in for the day. Have a good day!

Louise Sweeney

Monday 5/3 checkin: Having my breakfast - blueberry muffin and light yogurt. Ready for another week of No S'ing. I was pretty good over the weekend. I had a York peppermint patty and a small cup of chocolate pudding yesterday, and a candy bar on Saturday, but othewise I was good. Hope I can find som...

Louise Sweeney

Checking in Sat. morning. Just had my first weigh-in - 3 lbs gone away, hopefully never to return. Just finished breakfast, cereal and banana, plus coffee. Planning on having something wicked later. Not sure what that will be yet. More later.

Louise Sweeney

Friday already!! Had some cheerios and a banana for breakfast. I have leftover pizza in the fridge so will no doubt have a slice and some yogurt. Am planning on making stew later today so will have some of that for dinner. Am looking forward to my weigh-in tomorrow. Whatever the outcome I know I am ...

Louise Sweeney

Hey Karen! Don't like the tired bit but hope everything is feeling OK today. I'm really enjoying the No S'ing and am so happy that you recommended it. Got to go check in for the day so TTYL.

Louise Sweeney

Morning Karen. Have a good lunch out and enjoy the rest of your day. Yep, it's almost the weekend and time to indulge ourselves (a little bit anyway). I might wait until Sat. morning to weigh in since it'll give me Friday's good behavior day. We'll see. TTYL.

Louise Sweeney

Thursday morning: Blueberry muffin and yogurt for breakfast. Not sure about lunch, maybe chicken strip and banana. Looking better weather-wise for a good walk today. Got soaked again yesterday. I'm still liking this No S'ing and definitely looking forward to the weekend. Yay yummies! Not sure what I...

Louise Sweeney

Wed. morning check-in: blueberry muffin, banana and coffee for breakfast. We'll see what the rest of the day brings.

Louise Sweeney

Tuesday morning check-in. Just finished breakfast (South Beach cereal bar and light yogurt). Have to go to DMV today and get new tabs. Also the day to return bottles/cans and do my weekly grocery shopping. How much fun is that? Did manage to get in my walk yesterday and my timing was great - in betw...

Louise Sweeney

Morning! So glad you finally got a decent night's sleep. Good luck on your job interview. Have a fun day.

Louise Sweeney

Checking in Monday morning, 4/26. Just ate a granola bar and banana for breakfast. Had a good weekend and got my chocolate fix to last me until next weekend. Not sure what I'll be doing for the rest of the day, nothing planned so far.

Louise Sweeney

Morning, Karen. Oddly enough, I also looked forward to Monday. Strange, huh? Hope you are sleeping better and that the thyroid medicine will enhance your weight loss. Seems we started almost exactly 10 lbs apart (me being the upper lbs of course). I'm enjoying the program and feel really good even i...

Louise Sweeney

Hi, Karen. Are you sleeping any better now that you have all those new meds? Hope so. Enjoy your weekend - but not toooooo much!

Louise Sweeney

Checking in for the weekend (4/24 & 4/25). I had chocolate pudding and a banana for breakfast - totally decadant! Hooray for weekends but I'll try not to go absolutely crazy with all this food freedom, because then reality will rear its ugly head on Monday, so I must try to use a little restraint. I...

Louise Sweeney

Friday already so I'm counting down to candy time. Had a banana and toast this morning and just had a burrito and some raw carrots for lunch. Have no idea what to have for dinner. My flowers are looking really good in my backyard. Still have a couple of pots to fill. I'll have to go back to Bi-Mart ...

Louise Sweeney

Congratulations on your 2.5 weight loss! Good for you. I can hardly wait for tomorrow so I can have some chocolate. Hope I can control myself.

Louise Sweeney

Good morning to you. Having fun cleaning house? Good idea for exercise. I'm looking forward to your weigh-in day tomorrow too. I'm enjoying this no-S stuff and it doesn't feel too daunting especially when I can look forward to weekends!!

Louise Sweeney

Here it is Thursday of my second week of no-S'ing. Just finished another disgustingly healthy breakfast. Not sure what I'm having for lunch or dinner. Guess I will surprise myself - with something healthy of course. Supposed to be a nice day so I'm looking forward to a walk a little later in the day...

Louise Sweeney

I am being disgustingly healthy - cheerios and banana for breakfast; chicken breast and plum for lunch and chicken strips and carrots for dinner. Went for an afternoon walk with my faithful Adam CD for company. We had a great time walking the streets of Harrisburg. My favorite walk-song is If I Had ...

Louise Sweeney

A little rainy out there today (4/20) - will wait for a dry spell to go for my walk. Had a muffin for breakfast and a cereal bar for lunch. I was on my way to Winco and realized I hadn't eaten lunch. There was a cereal bar in my car left over from my trip to Canada, so I ate that so I wouldn't go cr...

Louise Sweeney

Hi, Karen, glad you had a good dr's visit and that your weight was lower than you expected. Woopee!! I went out for a shorter walk than usual because it was COLD out there. I'm such a wimp. Oh, well, at least I did something with myself. I'm glad we are doing so well and that you reminded me about t...

Louise Sweeney

Checking in on Monday morning (4/19) after a good weekend. I did have a candybar on Saturday, but otherwise behaved myself. Had a banana and muffin for breakfast today and about to go for a walk before it starts raining. Oops! Already started - will wait to see if there is a break later.

Louise Sweeney

Morning, Stubby. Looks like we are both doing good. I am behaiving so far on this Monday morning and just getting ready to go for a walk. Have a great day no-S'ing!!

Louise Sweeney

Checking in for Friday, 4/17 and Saturday, Sunday. OK, I'm trying this check-in thing again since I keep doing it wrong and it lands up somewhere I didn't intend it to (Lord knows where). I had a great week and had successes both on diet and exercise. Hooray for me! But, so glad it's my S days. Had ...

Louise Sweeney

Checking in for Friday 4/16 and Saturday and Sunday. Hooray for S days. I was really good all week, both food and exercise. So, I rewarded myself on Saturday with a candybar. Other than that one luxury, I was good. So far today, Sunday, I've had a muffin and a banana plus coffee. Think I'll have a g...

Louise Sweeney

I feel the same way you do Divahat! I get so discouraged by the scale and I know for a fact that I am not that number. I am such a great person and should not define myself by the scale. BUT-I do feel so yucky when I am 20 pounds overweight. I exercise 4-5 times a week and even ran a marathon in Oct...

Louise Sweeney

Checking in Thursday morning. So far, the week has gone great. Haven't actually had any cliffhanger moments where I wanted to eat a box of See's Candies, so that's a good thing!

Louise Sweeney

Have to get out there and do my walk. Good so far food-wise.

Louise Sweeney

Day 1 - just getting started and feeling optimistic. Looks like a good program.
