THE DIET THREAD #02

Okay...what is a 1 1/2 stone weight?

 

A stone is a measure of weight and = 14 pounds

 

So Roger, are you going to give it a go then?

 

He told me to take it slow, 2 lbs a month for a year.

 

Roger,

Will the doctor be monitoring your progress?

 

Nope - not unless one of the family has to go see him.

If anyone goes in the nosy guy will ask how I am doing

 

I've got 11.5 more to go away. Ed says I'll reach my goal by Christmas That's a long time away. I wanted to lose it by July 1, too Granny.

Granny, where did you post your Cornbread Salad recipe?

Roger, you really got us thinking about 1 1/2 stone. That doesn't seem like very much to me, but it would depend on if it is a small stone or a large stone

Sue, you are correct. It is best to lose weight slowly, but less than a pound a week is really, really slow. Especially when I can gain a pound in a day.

 

Well, I could say I have to lose 10kg.

 

I get the impression you don't like your doctor then

 

No, he really is grand, just nosey .

 

sisThankful~it was Sue's recent recipe for Cornbread Salad that I fixed this week. I found it in the BB recipe collection #2. (I think mine may be in the basement on the #1 recipe collection & was called Mississippi Cornbread Salad). BTW, I loved that cauliflower/3cheese stuff from Green Giant...thanks for cluing me in!

 

Well, I have been cleaning out my old clothes tonight. I put on some pants I used to wear alot, and I could not believe how they hang now. They were size 24. Now I wear a 14/16 and I still have to take a double-take when I look in the mirror sometimes. I still have more to lose, but I feel so free. Just wanted to share. If I could figure out how, I'd post some before and after pics.

 

Aw, Dr. Bob, with all your ailments, just nuy a new belt. You deserve to get to eat good things!!!

 

Yea, i'm down to 187-pounds this morning

 

I feel for you, Dr Bob, I really do. It's hard enough to lose it, and then to just let go...and be told "Maybe not..."

At least you are in the hands of the Great Physician.

Jello hips ain't that bad. I've had my 'bumper pads' for most of my life now...

In Christ,
Trotter

 

There is a little lady at church who is in her mid 80's and she reminds me of Granny Clampett. She told me today that she's "heard all this talk about the preacher's wife" (that would be ME) "losing almost 70 pounds." She said, "Well, I can't tell no difference no way! You look the same to me as you ever did."
What a compliment!!
