Wednesday Night Tale

Leads To A Thursday's Morning Scale

 

Once Upon A Time On A Wednesday Night

Was A Lady At A Computer Thinking With All Her Might

 

What Can I Say On Weigh-In Day

That I Don't Say Every Thursday

 

On This Site Are Men And Women So Nice

They Drink Their Water With Or Without Ice

 

They Try To Exercise some Each Week

And Try Not To Have Their Body Squeak

 

Eating Healthy and getting Thinner Is Their Wish

Sometimes That Means Giving Up A Special Dish

 

But Then Most Are Happy As Numbers Go Down

Then They Want To Buy New Clothes In Town

 

As This Little Tale Ends Now

Hope Your Loss's Tomorrow Makes You Say WOW

 

The Lady At The Computer Can Say

I'm Done Till Next Wednesday And Thursday

 

THE END

Good morning! Wow, that's my nominee for poem of the year Belle! [emoji3]

I'm down another 1.5lbs this week. And finally into new territory. Well, new in the sense that it's been 20yrs or more. Not really doing too much differently. I did add a third mile to my daily walking habit several days ago. Perhaps that has helped.

Good luck to all! I look forward to hearing from you.

Mike

Hello,

 

Belle, great poem. When do you leave for your upcoming cruise?

 

Mike, glad you are doing well. You sound very positive.

 

I gained 3 lbs. on my cruise. Not the worst. Hope to get some off next week.

 

Um, I better get it off as I cruise again in 6 weeks!

Mike Thank You. Good loss! A new number is always great!

Nice adding an extra mile to walking. Good job on both counts.

 

Diana Thank You. Know you can get your cruise gain off in six weeks.

Faster if water weight. Bet it is, only 3 lbs. You enjoyed the cruise, right!

Main Thing!

 

Alas I'm up some. Had stayed the same till yesterday..then had

Bunco, goodies and they got me a cake for my Birthday, then a few friends

took me out to lunch. That wasn't enough. Because of sweets in mouth

I picked at food during the night. BAD! Will get it off.

 

Diana I leave Oct. 1st, home on Nov. 5th. What date do you leave and come back?

I haven't even started getting ready. Been so hot and humid. Have to do things

on with/my car. Other things to do that get me out of the house. So much to do.

Still one of the people that iron their clothes.:)

Wow I didn't think I was this technically challenged! Couldn't find this thread all day! No email notifications....

Well since I just recently joined I'm guessing since last Thursday I lost 1 lb.. I'm On day 18 of Whole 30 plan.and have lost about 6 lbs since beginning ..

Was honestly hoping to be down 3 and past another milestone...

Hello, all. I weighed myself yesterday but my computer was giving me trouble so I had to wait until today to post. I am down 1.2 lbs. Congrats to all the losers. Belle and Diana, how wonderful to being cruising again so soon. I still have 6 months before I go on my next cruise.

Cruises2.. Thank You. Great loss! You've been doing good.

 

Diana.. Mines longer but you just got back from one and get to go again.

 

Rose.. Sorry you had computer trouble but good news you had a loss!

You got back from a cruise and have another planned. After this one, nothing planned.:loudcry::D

(Rose I play bunco with two friends named Rose and my SIL's name was Rose.)

 

Hope everyone has a good weekend. Last few days haven't been doing as good as I should.

Have to "walk the line" not think my kitchen is a buffet. Do you notice that you sometimes eat

badly after you ate sweets or went out to big dinner? Dinner doesn't do it but sweets does and had Bunco. Too much sweets/food:eek: but thought I did good. But brain is saying..GO For IT:evilsmile:...I Say NO More!

Need A Loss Thursday!(y)

Belle, know how you feel. After we got back from our cruise I had cereal the next morning for breakfast and thought "is that all I get"? But, that is back to normal.

 

Rose, glad you lost. You will so enjoy that Panama Canal cruise next year. We did it a few years ago, was so great.

 

Hope everyone has a good weekend. We finally are cooling down to temps.in the 80's.

Excellent poem Belle, always good to read some words of encouragement.

 

Cold is finally going away and Monday I'll get back to eating well. Right now I'm still kinda lethargic so taking in extra calories to keep my immune system going.

 

Beautiful morning so took the dog on her first hike:

She must still be stressed/weak because 2.5 miles and she was whipped. A/C got her back to normal:

So shopping with the missus tomorrow (she's committed to doing better too) and Monday we'll be eating healthy, walking the dog, and feeling like a million bucks!

 

Glad to see so many posts, with the good, not so good, but all positive. See 'ya!

WoW! Love the poem! Scale wise I havent seen any progress, but I usually go by how things fit anyway. I tend to pack on the muscle when I work out and not actually loose weight! But on a mini birthday trip this weekend and really trying to eat good. So here's hoping the next scale date shows some progress!

Good morning! Just checking in to see how everyone else has been doing.

 

shootr, love your new dog! And appreciate the photos each week. I'm currently dogless. My 15yr old died in January and we haven't decided to take the plunge again yet. Likely won't until spring I imagine.

 

You guys and your long cruises make me jealous! :) We're still bound by the school schedule, so a week at a time is about all we get.

 

Diana, thats awesome you only gained 3lbs last cruise! That's probably already gone! I remember when 7+lbs was the routine for me. Fortunately I've improved that a good bit with recent cruises.

 

Its been a disastrous weekend here as far as my routine goes. Already anticipating my recent success might go away Thursday. Oh well, I'll make sure to get my miles in before then and we'll see what happens.

 

Have a great week guys!

Good morning, Belle. My weekend was nice but went by so fast. I know that you leave on your cruise in a couple of weeks. You must be very busy getting ready. Are you going on a back-to-back cruise or just one really long cruise?

Hi all!

 

Belle ~ great poem!(y)

 

I was away at my sister's cottage for a couple of nights so didn't weigh in until Sat. No loss, no gain so that's okay by me. I was surprised as I did eat a lot & even drank a couple of glasses of wine. That always amazes me when I think I've probably gained I haven't & vice versa!:confused:

 

Have a great week. I'm another who does shorter cruises & am looking forward to my almost BTB except for 1 day,

next month.;)

Hi Rose and Jo

 

Rose I'm doing a b2b 7 day Mexican and then a 28 day Hawaii and South Pacific

Rose I should be busy but I can't seem to get started. Guess I'm waiting for the last moment

so I can stress!:D

 

Jo I don't like shorter cruises any more, if a 7 day have to put two together. That's

just me. Being away and you didn't gain, that's good. Jo where are you cruising?

 

Hope we have all a good Thursday.

Hi all!

 

Belle ~ just goes to show different strokes! 2 weeks away from home is enough for me, I apparently can't take too much of a good thing!;) I do try to make it so I am away for almost 2 weeks like in the cruises coming up, both Caribbean, I'm doing 7 days on the Escape, a day in FLL then 6 days on Carnival Conquest. Next year the Med cruise is only 7 days so I'll stay 2 nights precruise near Venice & 3 days post cruise in Cinque Terre (if my body holds up, I'm starting to get some pain in my rt hip:() DH only likes to be away for 1 week unless it's a road trip so usually I travel solo.

 

shootr ~ what a lovely looking dog you have there. She'll help you get your exercise in!

 

Have a good week.

 

~ Jo ~ :)

Jo, good job staying the same.

 

Shootr, sorry you lost your dog; your new friend is so darn cute.

 

Count hubby and I who like longer cruises. Short ones don't seem to be worth the effort anymore.

 

Especially if we fly to Europe or beyond.

 

Hope everyone has a nice evening.

Jo and Diana that's why different cruises for everyone. When we did cruises to Europe

twice and when I went by myself did a b2b. To me the longer the better. Would

love to do the World Cruise but to pay double when so high already. Don't think

it will happen. I really do like b2b's.

 

shootr your dog is so cute but your wearing her out.:)
