Wow!!! I'm so happy for you! I haven't really been counting points, but have been trying to eat more protein and workout and eat less...maybe I should count points while eating more protein and working out... I just think that is so great you are down so much! It is always so much easier to stay on track when you see results! Keep up the great work!

Wow, those look wonderful!!!! I love the jewels on the starfish!

I don't know how I missed this thread...but if my mom and i are having the same issue.... bring on more ideas!!!

Your pics are awesome!!! You look very beautiful!

Since I got my trainer, I have been trying so hard to eat the 6 meals they say...good thing I like to eat!! anyway, I have been eating kashi cereal the granola one w/ skim milk because the kashi has a lot of fiber and protein. I also switch and have egg beaters southwestern style on wheat toast. I know you said you don't love milk, but maybe even if you eat the dry cereal?? I'm sure you would like the egg and toast because it's more "breakfasty" plus the egg beaters aren't the yolk, just the whites w/ colored dye and you can cook quick on the stove or in the micro.... I would llike to know what everyone is eating the rest of the day...

That is awesome!!!! how exciting!!!

That is so cool!!! I totally want to swim w/ dolphins too (haven't convinced FI yet). I wonder if they have other special events like welcome dinner?? I just emailed them to see

It's very pretty! and what a great price!!!! just enough detail.... good find!

Very beautiful Shelley!!!! You look great in it..

Congrats!!! That's great 5 years!!! Our 5 year is Feb 15th...so pretty soon!!

Thanks ann!! I was a culprit of a couple new threads because the search wasn't working for a few weeks. However Shelley advised me of the advance search this morning...which works great!! Your post should definately clear up a few questions! Thanks mods!

I always get their coupons and throw them away)

Maybe I can order online...geez I don't even care what it looks like for that price! j/k...but only kinda!

Wow that is awesome!!!! I wish I had that luck...I'm just to impatient! I have been going to the gym 4 times a week and with a trainer 1 day a week and I think I'm only down 3 lbs in almost 2 weeks! I hope that changes. keep up the good work gals!

Those look great!!!

Oh Martha that is very beautiful!!! I can't wait to see pics of you in it.. Have you found a store that has that dress?

Good to know everyone thanks!! I was thinking that maybe it was the wrong season for light colors....

We haven't spent alot of time on this yet...but this weekend FI and I went to Macy's, Banana and Nordstrom Rack and there are like barely any light tan color suits!!! Banana Republic had one but it was like $370...which isn't bad...but I was hoping to find one on sale or cheaper... Any Ideas

I'm happy to hear you worked it out! Some people just have more trouble bringing up things for fear of letting others down and it seems that was her issue...I'm glad you guys talked though earlier than later!

Oh it was just already in publisher when I searched starfish..but it's brown in there and then I input it in the document and then clicked format picture and then I shaded it out and player around w/ it so it looked a little different.

Thanks everyone!! It took me all day to fiqure out exactly what I wanted that is why only one is done... Now lets see if I can get the rest to look the same w/out pulling my hair out!

Wow...I really consider myself lucky now...are they still requiring the 2 night min?

I'm not sure...I didn't invite co-workers (only 2 of them) to the wedding, but then again I knew they wouldn't be able to go both because of money and time off (since I won't be there). However if I have a shower I was planning on inviting them, only because I never really put much thought into it. They are my friends at work and i see them more than most of my other friends...they hear all about my wedding planning etc...and I guess I would feel weird talking about my shower to them and not inviting them. If they couldn't come then I wouldn't care. I guess I never thought about it the other way. I wouldn't be inviting them for gifts... So maybe it was really innocent and they just didn't want it to be awkward not inviting you? I don't know...maybe I shouldn't invite co-workers to the shower now. Yikes! Sorry, I know I didn't help!
