Hello All, as usual I haven't been to bed, guess it is too late now.

Does anyone know where Wendy is? I saw a tortoise in a magazine today and it made me think about the fact I haven't seen her post lately.

Had a very sucessful day on my eating plan yesterday and hope to do the same today. Actually thinking about going in the kitchen and cooking myself a nice egg. I never eat breakfast this early...I'm a bit hungry and don't want to eat a no-no carb! Carbs are what make me get so hungry and my nice lo-carb plan takes away the hunger. I need to boil up a bunch of eggs.

We have a family reunion coming up in April (Tennessee-Mississippi) and then Don and I will go to see my Sis Billie(Indiana) in June. Such a nice incentive to help to stay on the eating plan.
I think I can...I think I can...I think I can....I hope I can...I hope I can...I hope I can.

You can do it Froggie! did you know that you can buy hardboiled eggs, already peeled! they are in the egg section (go figure..*grin)

Having things to look forward to is a great incentive. Sears is supposed to come out this morning and fix the treadmill....then I'll have no excuse!

I have been to bed and don't have the drive you two have. I am ready to go to the Red Hatter's Meeting and I ache all over. Need to get out of the house tho. About to get cabin fever staying in just to keep out of the cold. They say 3 more snow days this week.

I forget to weigh myself, so I don't know how I am doing.

Billie

Oh Alffe if you fix the treadmill then you will have to walk on it for sure. LOL
Yes and incentive makes it more fun.
Didn't know you could buy eyes already boiled. Cool!

Billie, I hope you have a very good time with the ladies and that your aches and pains will go away while you visit! {{{{{{Big hugs}}}}}}

Hahahaaha..Alfee I was a the supermarket this mornign and lo and behold I found hard boiled eggs. I was like cool all I have to do is peel them becuse they still had the shells on....beats making em though.

Ok this morning I am going to try to ease into a healthier lifestyle. Went shopping bought healthy foods.

Maybe tomorrow will start going to gym to walk 1 mile on treadmill each day.

I can do this. Was listening to a speech by one of the new Michigan coaches and something he said struck me.

I'll paraphrase...only Shelley can make Shelley what she wants to be.
So I decided that I cant wait around for it to get easier or for someone else to do it for me.

So time to try before time passes me by (hey that rhymes )

Well Shell...(not the only poet! *grin.) You need to look harder...these already peeled eggs come in a plastic bag that hangs in the egg dept. The only problem with them is...it's much too easy to make deviled eggs w/mayo, potato salad w/mayo and egg salad samiches w/of course mayo.

Treadmill is fixed....it's calling me...

Mmmmmmmmmmm...deviiled eggs.........well there goes the diet today.

And I don't hear any treadmill calling...thats Mr Alffe

blahhh , my hubbys cold has caught up to me today

and we had a little bit of ice and weird snowy pellets overnight.
and foggier than the dickens all yesterday!

Vitamin c and fluids for me whoopee
i can rhyme too

Oh crap someone brought over a big basket of valentines candy.

Someone hold me back. I love the little hearts with syaings on them, especially the purple ones. I hate the pink and white ones they taste like pepto bismol

Feel better JO that cold is a nasty bugger! Dont forget Alffe's tip about the vicks on the bottom of your feet at night. It works. BUt do not do it during the day and wear shoes...I did and my feet were on fire.

FEET on FIRE! I'm that way with neuropathy. Don't need no Vicks to cause that. I got back from the meeting worn out. Gaye, Arlene said to tell you HI. She ask when you were coming up, so I told her and she said they would try to come to the festival also.

The sun is out today, but it is only in the twenties. I like it better this way, no matter what the temp is. I need to take Bear for a walk. You gals are making me hungery. I hate to tell you what I had for dinner today. I can't spell it anyway.
