GOOD SATURDAY MORNING, BUDDIES!!

Happy day after the 4th of July!! Thanks for the holiday greetings yesterday, Ronaldo. I'm sorry I've been away, but I've been siiiiiiiii-eeeeewwwwwwwwww-iiiiiiiiiiiiiiick! The medicine I was taking warned that it could make you sick and suggested that you eat something along with it, so I did, but that didn't do the trick, and I woke up on Thursday morning so sick to my stomach. Thursday is a complete blur. By yesterday, I was a little better, so we packed up and came to my parents' house for the weekend. Here's how sick I am -- everyone sat around me eating **trigger** and **trigger**, and **trigger**, and I didn't eat anything but toast. I still feel really icky. This could be the first family weekend on record when I lose weight, but I wouldn't recommend this method. I swear I'm not taking anything but Tylenol and Tums from now on!

So, for you USA-ers, how was your 4th? For our Canadian buddies, wasn't Canada Day a few days ago? How was that? I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend!

I'm really behind on posts. I'll try to borrow K's laptop again later and do some catching up. For now, I need to go eat some toast and get the world to stop spinning around. Ugh.

(((((((HUGS))))))))) (Don't be scared; I'm not contagious.) - Karen

Well today is going to be the turning point...

I fell off the band wagon big time! :-( Holidays, boo... I gained back 6 pounds. I'm hoping I can lose it as quickly as I gained it. At least this keeps me on my toes

On a worse note, I have my upper left ear pierced, and it decided to react to the earing I switched into it!!! Now it's swollen a bit and I'm worried it's gunna pop my cartilage into a bump! I'm taking antibiotics for it as well as icing, salting, and solution cleaning... I don't want a bump! :-( I'm gunna switch back as soon as the initial swelling goes down.

And lastly, my acne has flared up again so my face feels GROSS!

That's all...

I'll post later after I watch the movie Wall-e. Then it will be a better day. :-)



"One Step At


Enjoy the Simple.

Hi ladies!

Yes- Happy 4th to all stateside:)

It has been such a crazy busy summer so far that I am barely having time to write, and what goes along with it- take care of myself... so my eating has been off- I'm keeping a food journal hoping that helps me see what I'm doing....

I too have to catch up on posts- will do next week.

Going to a picnic today (n the rain...) and the Yankee game tomorrow-- happy weekend to everyone:)

Karen- feel better-- have to go back in posts to ready why you are on meds- scares me...

Rain- You WILL get back on track-- I'll be a lot is sodium weight since you gained so quick- it will come off!!

Gretal/ Roni/ Shannon / Dawn/ Ruth and everyone else-- have a great weekend:)

Oh Karen, what a rotten way to spend a few days. Sending feel-GREAT vibes your way right now!!! BUT losing weight at your folks' place WOULD be good, too...hmmmmmm. ;) KIDDING!


Yes, Canada Day was Tuesday, so it was a nice break in the week (day off with pay, WOOHOOO).


And today, Saturday, has been insane so far. Class first thing 'til noon, lunch with a friend (feeling SO yucky afterward), 2 hour nap, now at work for a 5-hour shift at the old job. I can NOT wait to get home, but am making the most of my time here to get some of my big group project done. "Group" is the funniest word to use...I should say the duet project. ROFL At least my one partner is a real bright guy and a super hard worker, so at least I have some help. oy, i want school to be done...or at least this class....2 more weeks 2 more weeks


Hope everyone is having an enjoyable day!!!

Your backyard camping sounds like it was fun. We did that a lot when our dd was little. Nothing easier for some adventure!
