another day...keeping on kepping on

hey lady, hope your time off is going well, halfta admit i am a bit jealous...i would love to be home for several days in a row hanging out, organizing and nesting. work is really hectic, but i am hanging in there, thanks for the walk and talk yesterday, it helped. today i went to my gym for the 1st time on over a month - since i hurt my back...but i figured if it went ok on NY i have no excuses now to start going here again. i looked wistfully at my old class and thought, not yet, gotta build up slow this time b4 i jump into classes again...i am not good at slow when it comes to the gym. Really want to hit the 100's this week, but only doing ok so far, kinda scared about it for some silly reason. how is all going with you? did you like my hairy apple analogy? any more thoughts on shifting your work to the 'baby' area? miss u

dumb thing cut me off

any way , i did lose 1 pound. all the othere things i wrote escape me and hozzy is waiting all day in the car. love twiggy.

the early worm always gets the bird.

Hi lovely sis. so you made it to dos caminos. i am happy to hear that because life has much to enjoy even for bright less than little women as ourselves. and you are soon on your way home . so pack your pride with you as well as your successes and wave goodbye until next time. a 40 min gym session after margueritas hah? did it help. i try do yoga after wine and my bird pose tips over a bit.
I made it to my meeting and

greetings from the hairy apple

hey lovely twigs the night nurse, greetings from the half rotten, anything but organic, hairy apple...OK, well i am still doing better than other trips, but i always feel a bit out of place here, kinda like the last 14 yr old picked in gym class for a team...and not really sure why. I am definitely eating better than other trips, but did make it to Dos Caminos and ate way out of control...but guess what? went to THE new york sports club (wasn't definitely the least coolest person there) after pigging out and drinking 2 margaritas! i cannot say it was terribly comfortable and i was still fat full after 40 mins of light cardio, but i did try...which is something...so today i had many near tear moments in the office and at our work dinner...i am just often left out or shunned or just not treated like part of the 'pack' and although i am proud to not be a pack groupie, it sometimes gets me down...so i am here, in the hotel computer room, trying to be a little worm in the big apple and getting treated like one...but i will survive and see my gorgeous home soon. You had best let me know how your mtg goes tmro morn as i am counting on you to do this w/me...cannot go it alone
i love you
mops in the apple

i shall carry on

Hi pretty lady. try call me today if you have the time. i decided i shall not give in to the fat monster. i will weigh in tomorrow at 0930 and pray for a decent number. how are you in new york city?? the big or little apple??? if you see my dear kell and sassan give them a hug from me. i love you. and keep the faith. we have much to do in this life. let's not cut it short for a donut. love twiggy

weight watcher meeting

Hi beautiful.
i am not trying to blow the meeting off, but there isn't one on wednesday am; only in the evening and i prefer now to go in ams. i am going friday at 930 am my time. you do well today and enjoy thai. ok ...... i am here for you.
love you my dear. your ww sis. twiggy.

hi miss meow.

H Hi cutie pie. how is the kitty pooo?? it is fun to come to work and see a message from my dear sister. 16 pounds is a great amount to lose. and you are on a new level . so new york will be a nicer place. oh, and can your big red apple shrink?
Happy to report i am eating protein tonight instead of LIC or ISH. clever. i can't eat it because we finished it last night. now what did we talk about again by the marina?? just kidding. i am doing better tonight. i f'd up last night as i stepped on the evil scale here. can't drop anymore. so i jumped off screaming , flalling my arms. but tonight when i got hungry i was prepared. and had 2 eggs with buffalo. my favorite. honestly, mops, protein seems to decrease my hunger for sugar.
AND LICORICE IS A RED LIGHT FOOD FOR ME..
i LOVE YOU. TWIGGY THE NIGHT NURSE.....

hey sista,
so it has been a challenge to be in the city near all these great restaurants...this cat sitting needs to go...hehehe...i am trying to be sensible at breakfast and lunch and just eat a bit less at dinner, but still enjoy the outings. I am getting a little nervous about NY next week, but at least I am a bit smaller now than when I was there last. I am down 16 lbs since I was there 12 weeks ago and am hoping that will give me a little more confidence. Keep talking to me on this the nights you work instead of eating the black lick or ish you can do it! Give handsome stinky dog a hug from me.

hi lady

Hi cutie.
i am back at work and feeling good about it. sounds like you are doing well. i know you can get to the 100's ; you have worked very hard and deserve it. just a matter of a short time. i am eating too much black licorice tonight but i guess that happens.
my red light food. oops. now i know.

I LOVE YOU. TWIGGY.

a new page

Hey lady,
I am so glad you came to visit me and attended my meeting. I am very proud of us changing our ways when getting together for THE 1st TIME! It was so wonderful to enjoy your company w/out running all over or trying to eat our way through CA. I really enjoyed our talks and hope we take a lot of wisdom with us as we face new challenges going forward. Enjoy your new music and have a great week! My goal is to hit the 1's by my mtg on 5/3, which is challenging cuz I am in NY next week (remember my big apple outfit)! I may need some words of encouragemnet next week, but will look for a mtg in NY. Love you, keep it going sweet twigs.

hi beautiful friend

Hi pretty lady. i am hanging out in your sanctuary listening to india arie; i am used to a little boombox. i thought i would say hello and have a good day until i see you. i am soon to head to the bay. such a pretty place here. thanks for the nice conversation last night. you are amazing to me.
love miss twiggy. i did not say miss piggy.

try this

Hi cutey. i just had a pretty good luna bar--peanut butter bar; also peppermint is not bad. i hope you are doing well and we can celebrate 25 pounds off your body on saturday. i will see you in less than 24 hours. i love you. twiggy

waiting for my sister

My dear sis, I am so glad you will be here with me in my home soon. I am counting down the days. My back is still hurting, but better, I am gingerly trying some stretching and slow walks. It stinks to feel so helpless and I miss the gym so much. I am trying to eat better though as I am hoping to get my 25 lb award at the meeting in Sat. while you are here! I am having a hard time keeping a good attitude b/c my back hurts and work sucks at the moment. Hope all is going well with you and can't wait to c u!

picture

oh, dear mops. i love the picture of me on the beach. i would like a copy. i look reflective. thank you for sending it. twiggy.

pretty sister with the love of life

Hi dear mops.
i read your message and could see you there. i can feel your pain; know that only you can love what you hold in your soul. i know sharing it brings you great pleasure; it is a beautiful thing about you. when heather does not see it, it reflects her more than you. despite how at the moment you feel. and at times alcohol and good cheese is just what feels right. though it can deepen the momentary pain.
What i see in you is inner and outer beauty. and, honestly, shell; i think this weight watchers and improving our physical health is one huge thing (ignore the pun) we can do. i ?? whether that in and of itself will not bring us to a place of greater peace and thought. and currently i am focusing on mostly that. you were able to feel the ocean air, the oxygen in your body as you pumped the peddles of the bike. heather was a fool to waste it... all you can do is offer the amazing opportunity for serenity. that you are finding .
I have rededicated to 3 things: breathing deeply, moving my body, and eating with points. i can only seem to stay commited for a couple months. but i figure if on the third mo i fuck up a bit, i may need it to refocus again. must be my rebellious nature. i have found doing turbo jam 45 min every day; and yoga most days, i eat much better. it works for me now. but who knows in a couple mos. oh, and i love a few things. medjool dates, organic caramel corn rice cakes, big ass bagels with honey walnut cream cheese every am --but only 1/2. so, with my favorites i guess i am on for awhile.
I ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT WAIT TO SEE YOU. I AM COUNTING DOWN THE DAYS UNTIL THURSDAY.... I WILL GO LISTEN TO THE SONG ASAP. ONLY 2 NURSES HERE AND ONE IS A FUCKING LITTLE ANNOYING WOMAN WHO WILL NOT SHUT UP. MY COWORKER ON DAYS DOES A NICE LITTLE DANCE AND VOICE OF HER.
TAKE CARE. I LOVE YOU. TWIGGY
