Belle Posted August 9, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Had a night of fun just got home Don't feel like writing a poem Nothing exciting just eating, drinking and playing games With great women friends we kept it tame So with a few margarita's in me time to say Will see you on weigh-in day:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan_In_Maine Posted August 9, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Belle - It was actually a very nice poem!!! Nice when we get the opportunity to spend time with friends! I am down 0.4# this morning .. glad it wasn't the other way .. but still seem to be up in weight since I've tried to be healthy (sigh) Hope everyone has a good day!

nyer Posted August 9, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Belle, that is a very good poem. I'm glad you enjoyed your evening with your friends. Jan, I am glad that you are seeing a loss. Anything that is not a gain is a good thing. I am down the 4+ lbs that I gained on my cruise. I know that it was mostly water weight, but I'm happy to be back to the exact weight I was when I left.

mdaviswv Posted August 9, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Thanks Belle. Great job Rose and Jan! I’m jealous Rose. It’s been almost two months since we sailed and I’m still not technically back yet. Close but not close enough. Oh well, I’ll get there eventually. I’m down around 0.5 this week by the way. Hope you are all doing well. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winewanderer Posted August 9, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Hello, Belle, short but sweet. PS, where do you cruise in September? Happy to report I'm down 1 lb., that's 8 total since April. Would love to lose about 4 more before my cruise in 5 weeks. That would put "below that certain number" I'm always chasing. We'll see. Jan, Mike and Rose, glad you lost. Rose, great losing what you gained on vacation, very fast. Hubby took me out for a big breakfast, better go work off some of the calories.

Belle Posted August 9, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Congrats! (y) You all had a loss. I stayed the same.:( But happy at the same time that I didn't gain from last night! Jan..I know it's so madding we try to be so good, eating healthy and it should be losing. Not Fair! Rose..Happy for you that your cruise gain is off. Good job! Mike..You lost that's the main thing. Your get to precruise soon. Diana..Good loss today and good sum since April. Hope breakfast was good. In Sept. doing the Pacific Northwest. Oregon, Seattle, Vancouver and Victoria BC. Just a 7 day. A free cruise. Thank you all for saying it was nice I was having fun. Played Bunco with 12 ladies morning and early afternoon. Food. 6 ladies went out to lunch, Mexican and a Margarita. 6 ladies went to friends house, play card games, snacks and more Margaritas. So out from 10 am to almost 2:30 am. Now can see why Happy I didn't have a gain. I tried to be good with food but did have the Drinks! :tropical-drink: :evilsmile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winewanderer Posted August 9, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Wow, Belle, you had lots of fun yesterday. That's so nice. Great you didn't gain. Congrats on the free cruise, best kind........ Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdaviswv Posted August 10, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Yes, a free cruise would be nice. I haven't experienced that luxury yet. Good news on the 1lb loss Diana! Belle, Pacific NW is fantastic. I've only done it once and for a short cruise, but it was beautiful. I still remember slowly sailing through the San Juan Islands watching little orcas swim along side! That was amazing. Don't forget afternoon tea at the Empress if you stop at Victoria. :) Have a good weekend guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle Posted August 10, 2018 Author #9 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Yes a free cruise is nice..if you don't count the money you spent to get it and the money you will spend while on the cruise!:D:eek: No really I'm happy, this way can take my daughter and I'm not paying the high price their charging for this cruise. Only have this cruise twice on Princess this year. Why it's been full for months. Think I got the last room. Yes Mike I've done the Empress. Did you know they took down all the ivy down from the front. Saw it when did Alaska this year. I missed it. So plain now. Diana I didn't gain for weigh-in but think up a little today. The scale couldn't decide. Alright where are the rest of our weigh-in group. We miss you when you don't come in. Everyone have a Good Weekend!

retiring soon Posted August 10, 2018 #10 Share Posted August 10, 2018 HI all! Belle ~ nice little poem. Glad you had such a good time with your friends & didn't gain anything. I was down 0.4 lbs so better than nothing. Most of us had little losses but better than gains. Have a nice weekend. ~ Jo ~ :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle Posted August 11, 2018 Author #11 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Good Afternoon everyone. Having a good weekend? Eating wisely? Drinking water? I'm trying! Why sometimes we're so strong!:) Other times so weak!:( Jo glad you had a loss. Your right anything better than a gain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shootr Posted August 11, 2018 #12 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Depends on how you mean "good"... I still can't get my eating under control and am stuck 20-25lbs over where I used to be. [emoji53] But, since it's my sons last week before heading off to year 2 of college, we're getting everything tuned up (scooter and bicycle). I took his for a test ride and it was epiphanic - how have I been this oblivious to the thing I enjoy the most? So, tuned up mine, new cleats on the shoes (they were due lol), had to rebuild the pump too, but am looking forward to saddling up for my first ride in over a year tomorrow morning. Maybe, just maybe I'll start getting somewhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdaviswv Posted August 12, 2018 #13 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hey guys. Doing ok here, although under the weather a bit. Hopefully a minor thing. Didn’t know that about the Empress Belle. It’s been a while for me though. I hope rediscovering a passion helps you out shootr. Good loss Jo! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winewanderer Posted August 12, 2018 #14 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Jo, glad the scale is going in the right direction for you. I agree Belle, some days easy to eat right, others are epic fails. Shootr, glad you are fixing your bike. I remember in the past you would report to us long bike rides you took and posted nice pictures. That's great you're taking your bike out, will be good. Hang in there about the weight. The bike rides will defintely help. Mike, hope you're feeling better. Enjoy the weekend. Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winewanderer Posted August 15, 2018 #18 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hmmm, seems we are short a few people this week: cruises42, Katmu, pacruise. Hope they come back. I was telling my hubby about my 8lbs. lost. Says he's confident I will find it again. :mad: Have a good evening. Diana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belle Posted August 15, 2018 Author #19 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Diana did you "kick" him?:p Yes we are missing people. Hope missing just because busy with summer. They will be here on Thursday, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacruise804 Posted August 15, 2018 #20 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I'm here :) (waves). It's been crazy busy here and I haven't had much time to pop in. On Friday I was down 1# from last Thursday. Managed pretty good eating and kept exercise up while visiting my dad and sister. C returned safely from Guatemala:cool: they had a great trip. In addition to the sports clinics they gave to several local communities, they also had food distribution where they provided over 80 families with 6 months of food:halo: He grew another few inches and is quickly catching up to Dad in height. We got through a lot of boxes at my Dad's. Several items to consignment, a few items brought home for each of us, and a lot to trash/recycling. More than once Matthew 6:19-20 was brought to mind about not storing treasures on earth where "moths and vermin destroy" K had her wisdom teeth out on Monday. She's handling it ok but has quite a bit of swelling - should be on normal food tomorrow. It's peach season here, and we canned 2 bushel yesterday. This week has been harder to get the running done. It's been raining a lot and many areas are flooded. We have strength training tonight and a short run. We have 3 picnics scheduled for this weekend. I did pretty good with the one we went to Sunday night - hopefully will power lasts for the next ones too. Have a great week all and I'll try to check in tomorrow on the new thread.

cruises42 Posted August 16, 2018 #24 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Last week was another 0 for me. This week we've been celebrating our 35th anniversary (for more than 1 day) so I don't think I have the nerve to weigh in tomorrow. Maybe next week.

It is amazing ... we will be celebrating our 45th on Saturday .... who knew that time was going to go by so quickly. Wish the pounds would go down as quickly as the years go by ... to all enjoy the week. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
