Hello Erin,

My name is Toni, username Uhuru.  I don't live in Valpo, but I do Live in Crown Point.  I have over a 100 pounds to lose.  Hope to here from you soon:-)

Hello!!  Not quite in Valpo, I live in Warsaw.  I start taking the alli pill on Friday.  I have about 75 lbs to lose also.  Might be coming that way this weekend to eat at Aberdeen Brewing Co.  We love that place. 

Good luck and I'll chat with you soon

I am in Westville, and I am also looking for some extra support. Let me know what you would like support in.

hi, i live in chesteron, there is actually a few other boards already going, one from IN and i saw a new IN, one just a few minutes ago, there is one also that says (Valpo area) if no one response for a few days they get pushed back farther on the list which makes some of them hard to find, if you have any trouble finding one, you can use the search on the top right side of the page, and type in the boards name, or if you want to respond to any on the ones you've written to in the past you type in written by and put your user name Uhuru.  i hope this will help you out some so you'll be able to stay with people you've been posting to.  hope to hear back from everyone, you can never have too many buddies helping you thru this weight loss journey! wishing everyone continued succuss. take care patty

 Hi Pat and you other gals.

All is well this week. I didnt go to curves today. I just didnt feel like it. The weather I feel is muggy today. We sure needed the rain we got.

I had to call alli today. It would not let me post. I just came on and Im back. Was worried about not being able to do my weigh in here. I sure hope better then 1lb.

As long as a lost that will be good right.?

How are you all doing?Just seems weight comes on so fast and so slow to come off.

I had more fat grams then I should have last night. But it didnt hurt me to bad in the bathroom department.

In fact I wonder if it is not good to up fats to be over once a week to have those orange Oil to help rid of more fat and just to keep body guessing.

We will seeif I hurt my loss This Friday. Can you belive 6 weeks already. Going On 7 week;

 I still have not went for a walk or done tredmil or abs yet. BUT I hope too.

Pat how are you doing? any loss this week yet?

I have a george forman grill and I think it helps.

Going to close and go outside to set on porch and maybe read..

Pat did you see in paper about alli? I didnt but someone said it was in there.

Have a good week coming up. I will write u Pat how I did if anything.

YOu other gals report to. Great to have buddies.

hi janet,

been having stomach problems again, & just real busy with the kids, so i think i'm just going to try to maintain, and they if i lose i'll be excited once the kids get back into school i'll be able to work out more, when i work out more i get that "runners high" from doing intense cardio and then food is no longer my obsession.  it looks like for the fall schedule i might start teaching on saturdays too, so that would be T, Th ,& sat. so then if i can get into the gym 2 or 3 days more a week ill be back on track to feeling like my old self. i never did see the article about the alli in the paper. always good to hear from you. take care.  wishing everyone well!

 Hi Pat.

 

 This is the last day of this month and a new one starts.

I read that in paper. someone gave me it from curves.I  need to do dishes but will have daughter do them tonight. Im so tried today. No curves. But think I will try to do tredmil 10--20 mins.

On my weigh in Friday was nonthing. Stayed the same. Maybe this week.a loss.

 read friday to tell you of my weightin.

But I was rejected by them. Dont know why.

How are you doing? You should have a weigh in soon??

Im trying to drink more water.

At walmart in Valpo. I found   a fat free muffins and they are small and 120 cals. very good and filling.

I also found fat free refried beans. That is good on low fat and carb wraps.

also I like and it makes great meal with salad. by Smartones. Refried and bean rice. Very good.

I found some soups that are good to no fat to low.

 I also like rice cakes. and I found some whole wheat muffins. 130 cals. and 1 gram fat.

 weight watchers has bagals that are good. get light fat cream cheese. BOy I could go on.

 I use George forman grill too.

 Just wanted to say hello.

 Hope someone else comes here to talk. and give tips.

 take care.

hi janet,

it showed that i gained the 3 lbs back, i've done some major cardio for 3 days plus an extra day of weights, so i think i'm just going to eat well and exercise as much as possible and not weigh myself until the kids go back to school, it's almost like i'm obsessed with the weight thing. and since i've been getting in those extra work outs i've been feeling very motivated, i even passed up popcorn made in the pan last night with real butter on it. only 22 more days until school starts, thanks for the low fat recommendations, i ended up buying 2 different kinds of low fat ice cream over the weekend and haven't tried either one yet. always good to hear from you.try to hand in there i'm sure you'll lose this coming week. i've had posting that haven't shown up but yet i haven't got anythingsaying it was rejected so who know's what's up with that!

take care, keep me posted on how your doing!

Hi  Pat.

I posted to you and others on the site I like a penn pal.

I got rejected because I put in my e mail.

I went to curves last night. I was told hey janet why dont you work here.. I said not now.ha

i also went down stairs and did tredmil for 20 mins. thats not alot but Im working up on that. Besides tv broke and it is boring down there. Should go to walmart and get tv and a Dvd player.

Im also going to do some abs crushes tonight. Im drinking ice tea now. I think I have to try to slow drinking diet pop as I do.

 I love skinny cow ice cream. low fat and cals are not bad. also the one with a bear on it. I forgot name.

I bet you you just gained water weight or muscle.It will be off next week or 2. Just dont give up. We have rest of year to see what we can do.

Are you going to buy Alli again?

I think after this bottle  I will do another.

I need to make a Dr. appointment too. I bet you will be glad when school strts. I gives you a little  time to self. But this twins keep you running.

take care.

I will let you know how I do Friday.

I dont weigh self but once aweek. It helps me.  Take care.

janet

 keep me posted to on your weight.  Nice just to say hello.

How are you other girls doing with diet .

 

 

 

hi janet, they pulled my posting to lanee that i had my email address on it was there since july 16th and they just pulled it today, i noticed a new thread where others were complaining that they pulled their old posts with their my space names on it. anyway i also have family accounts that i  use that have my same user name on them. i prefer using msn for that. i tried some dean's lowfat vanilla ice which was pretty good.  i have enough of the alli for 2 more weeks after that i'm just going to diet and exercise more, i'll still use this site but would prefer to email. good luck on your friday weigh in. take care!

 Hi pat,

 Been doing good. It is so hot and muggy. I watered  thing last night.

Going to curves today. I sure would love to learn how to do yoga. DO you do that??

I will do tredmil tonight maybe try 25 mins.I have to get things done so this will be short.

 So have a great day.

OH by the way>>  7 weeks end. LOOK>> lost 2lbs. total 10lbs.

janet

hi janet,

that's great that your continuing to lose the weight.  i've taken yoga classes before, and use a few of the exercises in my classes, but i prefer pilates. pilates use flowing movements, where yoga holds poses for a longer period of time, which for me(i've had a wrist and 2 ankle injuries, not related to exercise) but anyways hold some of the postions put too much pressure on these areas for me to do on a regular basis. if your interested in a mild yoga tape, Denise Austin has a good one for that and for pilates.  she doesn't do a bunch of the super hard exercises in hers so they're great for beginners, if your interested. the public library here in chesterton, has 4or5 different exercise yoga & pilates tapes that you can check out for a wk at a time, so you might check your local library to see if they have any, that way you can try out different workouts with out having to spend any money. 25mins on the treadmill is great too!  keep up all the good work! take care  patty

it's been quiet here lately, how's everyone doing?
