Thanks shoppe I knew you would be happy to hear that.  I hear ya, no way you can drink lots of water on a 8 hr car ride...or else it would become a 16 hr car ride with all the stops.....LOL!  Plus I get the munchies...chips and candy, b/c I get bored...and I smoke more, not cool!  Unless I am driving...then I just smoke more...

Congrats Care.. I know you can do it, and water is the key,  it takes a lot of salt out of your system.

I am like fossil,  I gained 3 pounds in the 4 days of vacation.   Its so hard to eat right when you are at someone elses house, plus traveling 8 hrs in a car, you cannot  CANNOT keep drinking water the whole trip (and you all know why)  :)

I am back.. and glad to hear from you all.

Well I gained 5#'s on the trip(rolling eyes),but I was picking rock for two days and lost three of it,so I'm 202 now............................On the coast with all that crab,fish and other seafood,I couldn't hold back(ha ha)..............

For people whom doesn't know what picking rock is-"Its walking a farmers field with a tractor behind you,you pick rock off the cropped fields and through them into the tractor bucket............rocks from fist size to 600 #'s..........hard work...We did 58 acres the first day and a quarter the next........My back is toasted(on meds now for a while)...........But my buddy needed help so I helped him....(he is 87 years old,no need for him to do that alone)

Care, some will say you don't need a scale.  WRONG, YOU NEED A GOOD SCALE.   Do you have 50 bucks to spare?   if so get a digital.   They are so accurate, you can't cheat on it.  :) Invest,  weigh every morning.  You will see by what you ate the day before if you made the right choice.

Down 2 this week.   so its about 22 pounds so far.

I am one that has to stick to the diet perfecly or I will stray.   One serving of something I shouldn't have and I say "what the heck" might as well top it off with a dove candy bar..  or handful of wise potato chips..

so, perfect or nothing to get the job done.

Now,,   not 200 girly,  just  8-10 cups a day (a cup being 8 ounces)  measure it out and you will see its not that bad, start early, keep it chilled,  sip all day,  don't just look at a cup and say I have to drink that right now.... sip all day... carry it with you....   YOU WILL LOSE...

Good Mornin' Darlin'  haha pun intended.

yes, Neon love that song.   Don't laugh it may be true..

So much to do before I leave.    plant some periniels (sp) I bought cheap,  pack,  pay bills over phone,  have van looked at and probably a small repair.   Make to do list for my daughter to come over and do while I am gone,  show her the garden and flowers so she can water properly,  feed cat,    feed birds,  watch for racoons who like to eat bird feed nightly if I don't bring it in...     yadda yadda... It would be easier to not go away I guess.

Actually going away during garden growing season is not my favorite.   I don't want the rabbits taking my tomoato or eating the squash that is almost ready.... on and on...........
