Main Goal

I have been working on losing weight for almost 3 years now and have lost about 50 pounds, however I still have another 50 I would like to lose but am having a harder time with this 50! So my long term goal is to lose another 50 pounds, learn to eat better more regularly and keep working at making exercise an everyday part of my life!

My short term goal is to just get these next 18 pounds off before my trip to BC in August!

Hey girl. Down .5 that's good you're going the right direction! What's new? Almost time for school to start again. Maybe that will give you a few less kiddos to look after and more time for you? At any rate keep up the great work and lose, lose, lose!
Time for a funny;

Like all growing boys, my teenage grandson, Jermon, was constantly hungry. I went to my refrigerator to find something he might like to eat. After poking around a bit and moving the milk and juice cartons, I spotted a bowl of leftover chili.. 'Hey, Jermon,' I called out excitedly. He came running into the kitchen. 'Look! I found some chili.' Struggling to be polite, he said, 'If you're that surprised, I'm not really sure I want it.'

What do you say Shannon? How goes the war? What are all of your little ones up to? I'll bet those girls are back from camp by now. Boy time sure flies doesn't it. Hey I have another funny for you;
Larry LaPrise Died

With all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the
moment, it is worth reflecting on the death of a very
important person, which almost went unnoticed last week.

Larry LaPrise, the man that wrote "The Hokie Pokey" died
peacefully at the age of 93.

The most traumatic part for his family was getting him into
the coffin.

They put his left leg in. That's when the trouble started...

Hya Sweet n slim. What is new in your side of the world? Hope things are going well.

Funny time;
A couple had two little boys, ages 8 and 10, who were excessively mischievous. They were always getting into trouble and their parents knew that, if any mischief occurred in their town, their sons were probably involved.

They boys' mother heard that a clergyman in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The clergyman agreed, but asked to see them individually. So the mother sent her 8-year-old first, in the morning, with the older boy to see the clergyman in the afternoon.

The clergyman, a huge man with a booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Where is God?”

They boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there with his mouth hanging open, wide-eyed. So the clergyman repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is God!!?" Again the boy made no attempt to answer. So the clergyman raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "WHERE IS GOD!?"

The boy screamed and bolted from the room, ran directly home and dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, "What happened?"

The youngest brother gasped for breath and replied, "We are in BIG trouble this time dude. God is missing and they think WE did it!"

Hey looks like you are still steadily losing I've been doing ok on the diet but the exercise aspect I still haven't even started. I really respect you doin it with a house full of kid congrats when my kids were little it was all I could do to keep up with them. I just started focusing on myself and my youngest is in 2nd grade. I am thinking about getting a bike! That will allow quality time and exercise.

Hey Shannon. Is that right? Does your page say 15 pounds lost? AMAZING!!!! That is fantastic! Wow girl way to go! What is your secret? How are the kids this week? I used to do this really fun thing with my kids with a hotplate and crayons. The kids would put a paper on the hot hotplate and draw with the crayons. The crayons will melt. Hey wishing you a fantastic week.
