2 more weeks and then goodbye Dupree…

Sorry can’t say that I am feeling sad; because actually he’s holding me back. Anyway the time did fly and we have had our talks and he says he will never forget about me and is so happy that I was in his life.  THINGS are definitely over between my hubby and I we aren’t even on speaking terms he calls to speak to his son and that is it! My family is still upset that I kept the little boy but hey it’s almost over!

I have learned so much from this incident and I can say that I am just happy to move on with my life.  My weight is still in tact; how I do not know; maybe because of all the traveling and being so busy. But I am back on track today!!! Exercise…me the guru haven’t seen the likes of it in about three weeks have to get back on track. Anyway miss all you guys and did do a sweep of my buddy list deleted like 40 people so all my best buddies need not worry you are still there!

Anyway guys have a wonderful weekend and STAY POSITIVE!  I’ll be real rich soon! lol lol Have a great day!!!

I have 81 buddies….Where are you?

Okay so I know these past few weeks I’ve been in and out but I am a faithful buddyslimmer and I don’t understand what happened to all of my buddies.  If you are still here can I hear from you before I start deleting my list and then start getting hate mail.  I love you guys but come on now….lol

Anyway having one of those days…keep me in your prayers and I’m still staying positive!! love you guys let me hear something from you.  I know your internet is messed up SHANNA lol Have a great day!!!

I had the time of my life….lol Back from Ohio

MAN I just had that song in my spirit from Dirty dancing and it made me smile!  Just flew in a few hours ago from Ohio. I am in the office now and reflecting on what a wonderful time I had.  I did have internet connection back home but was so very busy sorry guys…love you all and missed you immensly.  I’m going to catch up on blogs now.  I have another two weeks for my next flight to Ohio so until them….I’m HERE!

I didn’t do too bad over the holiday but did indulge in my KRISPY KREME donuts ugh….Back to the basics tomorrow and lord knows I miss Shaun T and Billy blanks so badly.  Anyway have a wonderful day everyone and remember STAY POSITIVE!

1 Year Anniversary on BUDDYSLIM!!!! Yeah I made it and I’m still here going strong!!!!

WOW! I guess time does fly just sitting here at my desk reminicsing and realizing that a year ago today I weighed a whopping 281 lbs ugh! I was miserable and just didn’t know where or what to do.  I got on-line to actually look up weight loss items and stumbled across buddyslim and have never looked back!  It has been a tremendous journey and I have made loving and caring friends.  Two of my first buddies were TONI (and she is a very special friend now and my little sis.) and Maggie (MAGZ) they are TEXAS girls and the love came overflowing.  But they answered one of my first blogs and it has been great since then. KAMA followed and LYSSA was a few months down the road.  I joined the HOTRODS and just simply loved it!  Will be returning to my DIAMOND team once I get situated with my move!!!

I have managed to lose 61 lbs and there have been ups and downs; but for the most part I have kept my weight in tact!  Words of wisdom for my buddies:  Continue no matter what; and never ever give up!  It is a battle that you can win; and it is so much easier with friends!  To all of my old and new buddyslim buds thanks so very much for all of your love and support .  And the best thing about Buddyslim: “It’s not just about weight loss”  Dr. Marc thanks for a wonderful site and thanks to all the wonderful people here on buddyslim: STAY POSITIVE!!!

Off to OHIO tomorrow to visit family for memorial day weekend!  Will be on my best behavior lol lo lol

SHORT AND SWEET….

Morning buddies…on my way to Philly wanted to say that I’m getting stronger through my whole ordeal and that I will be leaving for OHIO again on Thursday lol lol I know, I know I am a traveling woman.  Weight still in tact but haven’t had the opportunity to exercise but I am good.  I miss my buddies but also thank those of you nice enough to be concerned.

I still need lots of prayers as it is really getting tough but I’m staying strong and positive.  Gotta run check in with you guys later!!!! 

Made it to Ohio safely…I lost 3 lbs yeah….

Well in spite of everything that has happened with me, my daughter etc. I have somehow managed to lose 3 lbs.  Brittany and I did drive her car to Ohio on Saturday afternoon (we arrived right before midnight) and I flew back yesterday can you say EXHAUSTED lol but it was great! And we had a ball. She was sad she couldn’t attend the first summer session but I guarantee she will be in the second half of the semester.  I got a traffic ticket in the mail friday from the Houston Police.  My hubby has my truck and ran a red light but since it’s in my name…..oh well you know how it goes. I just want it over and him totally out of my life and sight ugh….. Anyway thanks to all of my buddies for your love and support and hey since I am so down to the ground I guess the only way to go now is up….I will no longer let what he does affect me or my children.  It is getting hard to keep Dupree seeing what’s going on but I made a promise to that little boy and if you guys could;ve only seen the Mother’s Day Card that little boy made me….talk about crying! 

He said I was his supermom, superhero and oh  yeah the best part I’m super skinny……lol but he just wrote how thankful he is to me for being there for him and I am the best mom ever. He said thank’s for helping me with my behavior so I can do good in school and you guys know I just cried and cried and hugged him and told him that I will always love him and never ever forget about him!!!

So that made my day.  Anyway have alot of work to do I’m heading to Ohio again on Thursday night and will return on Tuesday, May 27th!  Sorry I haven’t been on-line much I’ve either been traveling and no internet at home. I will catch up this weekend while in OHIO….well I’ll try.  Thanks so much for everything guys and continue to keep me, Brittany and Heather in your prayers.  Love you guys,  STAY POSITIVE!!!

Oh yeah and to my buddy DEBBIE (PENGUIN) since I have so many Debbie’s (love you too my little preggers) lol lol lol Thank you from the bottom of my heart for always being there for me; I know without a doubt you were heaven sent to me.  Love you much!!

Saddest day of my life….

Well my daughter wanted to go to the summer sessions at West Virginia University and because of all this crap with me and hubby I couldn’t even afford my daughters’ tuition…now how is this fair?  And the saddest part is when I had to tell her I didn’t have the money she cried and that made me cry too….man I tell you it seems after you have done all you can for everyone else and their kid that someone would help you not the case and I can’t tell you how I am feeling right now…but she still has until June 30th to make the second session and like KAMA I am praying for a miracle for my childl

Anyway buddies didn’t make it to OHIO no money and stuck in my office not feeling real well today and yes Ms. POSITIVITY is feeling real down about now.  I am a mother and I am suppose to be there for my daughter; I’m there for everyone else’s kids and it really makes me sick that my own child needs me and I can’t be there!!! Ugh…..

 Take care guys and just keep me and Brittany in your prayers for the second semester!!!

Hey Buddies…Sorry I’ve been MIA but I’ve been so busy….

Okay most of my buddies know that I left last Thursday for Ohio and came back Tuesday of this week. I had class on Wednesday and Thursday and this is my first day back to work since last week. So very busy to say the least. Had an awesome Mother’s Day with my daughters mom and family.  I get back to PA and all hell has broke loose. Husband decides he is not paying any bills so cable is off lights passed due and just a bunch of mess…..don’t even want to dwell on it!

I was getting a little down…well let’s keep it real a whole lot down about it but my buddy SHANNA (thanks a million) sent out prayers for me and I realize I just have to keep going in spite of.

Brittany and I are driving her car back to Ohio tomorrow so once again I’ll be MIA.  The best thing out of this whole ordeal is this: I DIDN’T GAIN ONE SINGLE POUND!!! WHEW I stepped on the scale and just screamed. Because of course I ate my favorite cheesecake, but since I’ve given up meat and barely eat the white stuff my family complains I don’t eat enough…which we all know that I do.

So as you can see I have been very busy and today being my first day back to work in a week I’ll be busy as ever too. Buddies just keep me in your prayers and if you don’t hear or see me around know that I’m okay and thanks Debbie and Deirdre for always being concerned.

STAYING POSITIVE IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING! 

Having the time of my life in OHIO…be back in NJ tomorrow…

Hey buddies…long time since i heard fromyou guys lol but I’ve been having the time of mylife in ohio with my family.  As most of my buddies know Heather flew in Saturday and we picked up Brittany on Friday. Just good fun with my family and so very relaxing.  I;ve been doing really well on my eating of course I had my cheesecake lol but I know Billy Blanks and Shaun T will work that off of me.

Well kinda sad because I’m leaving out tomorrow morning and I so wish I could stay.  I’ll be coming back on Saturday we’re driving Brittany’s car back because she has classes. Heather said she is coming back too; so I am one happy mother and can’t wait until I can be here permanently!

Okay so all the Mother’s in Buddyslim land Happy Belated Mother’s day!  And everyone else you know the deal: “STAY POSITIVE”! Love you guys and miss you so much!!!

4 hours until my flight; I can’t sleep…

Now it’s 12:32 a.m. and I really should be in bed have to leave at 4:00 a.m. to go to the airport.  Debbie took me to Red Lobster and I ate so much shrimp mmmmmmmmmm afterwards we went to the CASINO so I had a wonderful time right before my trip. As most of my buddies know I am OHIO bound to spend time with my family me, both my daughters will be with my mom and it has been almost 8 years since we all were together.

How great is that?  Anyway my brother has his laptop at his apartment which he is allowing me and Brittany to utilize so I am so thrilled!!!! WHEW maybe I’m excited or maybe my little preggers friend Debbie has past her late nights to me. Whatever it is I am going to sleep on the plane for that one hour and twenty minutes.

If I don’t speak to all the mom’s have a wonderful day and know how special each and everyone of your are.  Remember STAY POSITIVE!!!!
