Mary,
thanks for asking about me! It has been a hectic august, getting my daughters settled into college (one is a new first year student), and also having my wife's sister pass away. we have an empty nest this year!
i've been exercising, but eating too much! I'm afraid to step on the scale, but I will before Sept 23! We're in the homestretch!
I hope you're doing well. I'll check the conversations in the competition soon.
Peace to you,
Dennis

Hiya, Mary! How's your honey doing?
By the way, I kind of like the idea of "Hello, Jello" as a greeting. Jello is fat-free, right? How's that for some spin doctoring!? HAPPY DAY! Do well!

At least it wasn't "hello, jello." That might have been a real hit to the old self esteem! You seem to be doing an awesome job! Does it get easier as November gets closer?!
Keep up the great work, Mary! You're doing a great job keeping us all motivated!

Woooohoooo!!! Go girl! 184!!! Only 10 more pounds to get to that lowest weight that you had back in May! I'm so proud of you! Okay, next weight I wanna see is 182 alright? Give it to me mama!!! I'll behave at the bbq's, I promise. I'm having a few "down in the dumps" days, but it's been rainy for a while, and that's what happens. But I'm looking forward to sharing a weight loss story with you next week! Love ya darlin'!

mary, I'm still here, thanks for checkin' on me! I've been really slacking off lately, due to an overly busy schedule! But, when school starts again on Tuesday, I'll be back into a much tighter schedule and that helps me get things done. I had a gain last few weeks, but today I'm down from lst Sunday (even without exercising) so I'm happy! We're off to camp for the weekend (my husband is speaking at the young adults weekend), so I have one little tini vacation left before school starts. Sorry I've been so quiet, just really unmotivated. (had a few physical problems lately, too But... just gotta keep going!) Hope you have a terrific long weekend, and I'll be back in the game big time starting Tuesday! Take care!

Hey Mary.. guess what?? After my walk yesterday i was down to 169.8!!!! Of course I woke up today and am at 170.4 which is GREAT but I really want to keep seeing 160's. .ya know what I mean. I am sure that after my walk today I will be back down 1/2 pound. Seems to always work that way.
I started back at the park every other day doing the 2 miles of hilly-ness (is that a word??? hhaaa)
I have really cut down on dinners!! I eat mostly breakfast and lunch and then I eat a small dinner and it seems to be working.
Now, don't get me wrong. I have like 2 breakfasts!! Oatmeal (3points) at one (around 6 or 7 am) and scrambled egg whites (3 eggs = 1point)with a little ham(2points) & cheese (1/2 oz+1.5 points) at the 2nd breakfast around 10:30 am. I am having a lean cuisine at lunch and snack on turkey breast deli cut slices with alpine lace swiss cheese (basically fat free cheese). I think I have been under my points! With the breastfeeding and workout (about 3 extra points) its basically a wash!!
Anyway.. I see you are kicking butt again so keep it up girl!!!

Hey, Mary! So good to hear from you! I do love to read your comments on the summer comp page, but I've just been too much of a downer lately to post myself. However! I think I'm back, and part of it really was seeing myself in new clothes. It clicked - ohmigoodness, I really AM doing something! No matter how slow it's going, it's happening!
Man, at clearance prices, $150 could just about get you a new wardrobe. I'll be rooting for you!

Hey Mary....Dallas was good, chaotic, but good. You know how some vacations can be more exhausting than relaxing?? That is how it was!
Great job getting to 188! I need to gte there too! SOON!

Hey Mary.. I had to look up what Mankato was and wow, it's a place!! hhhaaa... You know, I live as west as you can get so I don't know much of your area.
Looks like its 100 miles away? Didn't you guys just get that property last year or so? What is the deal? Not much to do where you are now???
