Ok, this the menu that Holly and Carrie came up with!

1. Spinach salad with walnuts, pear, and fat free feta

2. Baked chicken with a fruit glaze (we need to find out if anyone has allergy or prefers one over the other on the glaze. The choices are rasberry, apricot, or peach)

3.Wild Rice

4. Steamed broccoli and baby carrots

5. Dessert: Angel food cake with berries and fat free whipped topping

I'm (Melissa) am just going to divy up the foods for everyone to bring! I hope that's okay! Post when you know what you are bringing so I know if I need to contact you or not about bringing it! No particular order, just naming names :)

1. Chicken breasts (Carrie)

2. bag of spinach (Holly)

3. walnuts chopped (small bag) (Christi)

4. Fat free Feta (Mindy)

5. Wild Rice (enough for 7 people) (Sharon)

7. Baby carrots (Melissa)

8. Angel food Cake (Mindy)

Well that should be it (of course you are welcome to bring anything else you want! but let me know if you are alright with bringing what's by your name!)

OH, okay,

Just to clear some air..

Melissa told me that some of you are very confused as to why I am not coming to the GNO. Yah, I am quite surprised that I am not coming myself!! hehe There has been some stresses in my life, where I need to be working on my house and getting ready to move. Matt misses seeing me, since I am always up at the house anyway trying to get things done, so another night or even a day with not being with him and my family is hard for him and me. We never get to be with each other these days. It is not that I don't want to come, or because I feel like I don't need you all. You all have been such a great support system to me, and without you all, I wouldn't be where I am today with my weightloss. I owe it all to your much needed support. So, I hope you will forgive me for not making it to the BL get together.

Girls weekend......

WHAT ARE WE DOING?!!

we've never really made any official plans on what we are doing. I don't think we should just "wing it" because then we might not get to do the things we want to do. SOO if you CARE and have an opinion, then go ahead and jump right in and let me know what you'd like to do.

I'm assuming we will all meet up there at different times because our hubbies get off work at different times. So...questions...

Out for dinner or in for dinner?
WHAT for dinner?
Stay in and chat or go out on the town?
Going shopping on Saturday for a new outfit?
Taking pictures?

What are YOUR ideas! Since we only have less than two weeks, we need to get the plan together!

PS, Tammy and Becky...you coming?!

A firm list

It's two weeks away from our over nighter! I'm so excited, it should be a fun time! Because I don't really want the full $200 and some odd amount charged to my card with out putting everyones money in the bank first, I want to get a firm list of who's in so I can decide how much we all owe.

So here's a list of FOR SURE yeses...

Me
Carrie
Christi
Holly
Sharon
Mindy
Patty

So...Becky, Katie and Tammy...are you guys coming!? You KNOW you want to!

UPDATE: Katie wont be going :( darn! we would have loved to meet you Katie!! Tammy and Becky?! You in?!

This month's winner......

Let's all do great this month okay!? Give it all you've got so you don't end regretting that you didn't try harder! Also, please let me know who is FOR SURE making it to the over nighter. I need to split the prices and get the $$ before we stay there.

Weigh in tomorrow!

You know how it goes..send your picture of the scale to me: missa4_25@msn.com. :) good luck tomorrow!
