Good morning to you! I have been missing you. *hugs* How have you been?

Interesting thing for supper tonight. A cheeseburger with a pickle, lettuce, tomato, and mustard... now what was interesting about it is that it was only 1/4 of a burger and it was on a flour tortilla shell and not bread. It tasted pretty good, lol. . . Was nice to actually eat a burger. I had tried to have one before with nothing serving as bread.

Funny how just that little flour tortilla made all the difference. I am now thinking I may have to do pizza toppings on a flour tortilla, because I can't eat the pizza, just the toppings and just like a burger. . . it isn't the same.

Good morning my loveliest of friends.

I make pizzas on tortilla shells and bake them in the oven all the time.....they're only five points on Weight Watchers and you can load them with veggies. I know you'd have to make them your way for your purposes, but they're pretty good. I hope things are going well for you.

I think I will try that this weekend. I can put whatever I want on them, it is just the crust I can't have. I even have some Canadian Bacon in the fridge. Hmmm... do you think when you go to Canada and you look for bacon. . . you will find the American style bacon, labeled American Bacon? Hmmm. . . a point to ponder.

Indeed it is. lol We'll have to ask someone. I hope you like the "pizza"....I can eat it just about every day. lol How much are you down now?

I stayed the same this week; so still at 66. I'll weigh in again on Friday, since my last weigh in made my schedule different and to weigh in Mon. or Tues. would be pointless.

I figured I stayed the same because I had sick kids this week and couldn't walk the mall. I have another sick one today, so my exercise for next week may have to be done here at home. (I detest exercising at home) lol.

Weight Watchers has a great Chicken/Black Bean pizza. Chicken can bother my stomach sometimes; I never know when it is going to be an issue or not. (quite frustrating)

I saw the 66 pounds in your sig line after I sent the message....you'd think that with being a teacher, I'd research before asking. lol I hate exercising at home, too, but love to when I'm with others.....go figure. I"m not doing Weight Watchers anymore, it was just one of those things that I didn't stop eating when I was finished. I'm doing my own thing now and it seems to be working.
I'm really proud of you, Red....66 pounds is amazing.

Awww, thanks. I am proud of you too. *Hugs* For more than just you doing your own thing.

My next goal is to be under 300. Hopefully by the end of February I'll make that goal, if not then I'll be real close. (crosses fingers, toes, and shoelaces)

*crosses mine for you*

And thank you....I've lost 35, so its going but its going slowly. lol

35! That is excellent!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Do you feel the difference?

Yeah, I can tell the difference in the way my clothes fit and a few other minor things. But I've always been one that could do what I wanted physically....I hike, swim, play sports, am flexible *giggles*. And my blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, etc. have always been perfect. I'm healthy....just don't look like it. lol

I could do all those things, but it hurt to do them. I forced myself because I knew my kids wanted me too, especially this last vacation, hiking through Michigan. There were times, early in my marriage where I wasn't as heavy as I am now and we went into the Smokies. Hub wanted to hike one of the tallest peaks and I knew physically I couldn't. I was very glad the kids had fallen asleep by the time we got there and I bowed out. I will be going back there again and I will be walking that hike. (I however will not get lost like he did!)

The only health issue I was being treated for was high-blood pressure. All the other stuff was great. I was just starting to need ibuprofen every night to sleep through the achy joints and back pain, that carrying all this weight did to me. Right now I hurt, but that is because I fell down hard a couple weeks ago and twisted a bunch of different muscles in my legs and knees, and sprained my wrist. (Falling is not graceful)

Ouch!!! Sorry to hear that, hun.....I hope you heal up quick. I'm sure you did it as gracefully as it could be done.
I'm a little out of sorts on the food thing right now....my bloodwork came back all out of whack.....they aren't sure why yet. They have me on a variety of food to try to get my iron and blood count back to where it should be before the surgery. It doesn't help on the whole diet thing. lol

I am waiting on my blood work. Well, it is done, but I have to go get the results for the surgeon, who I see in Feb. It will tell me if all my stuff is okay and if I need to increase anything. (probably protein...grrr)

I hope they can get all yours back to normal. *hugs* I am thinking about you and keeping you in my prayers.

Thanks so much.....it means a lot to me. I get a little nervous thinking about the "what ifs" sometimes and the blood thing just sends my mind into overdrive about the possibilities if I let it. lol

I'll keep my fingers crossed about the protein....I know its not your favorite of things.

It is human nature to become nervous about things that effect our health. *hugs*

You know. . .if I could just eat tons and tons and tons of fish, pork, ham, turkey, beef. . .every day, I could probably conquer the protein issue. lol

I am tolerating Slim Fast Honey/peanut butter protein bars and I found BIOTIN, which is a protein pill. I just don't want to post . . .BalledHairedandFriendly some day when I come to Lit. Since that is a side effect of not getting enough protein.

Yes.....I can see your point. lol

I could post as WiggedRedHairedandFriendly.

Or you could just take care of the protein problem. lol

Why do you think I have the pills! lol. *pinches your smart ass*
