last sighted in keiths room
but if he is away perhaps we had better go and retrieve it ourselves.

Two words Bird Bath, boy those things can bounce!!!

Thank you for your kind thoughts. I know that my losses are trivial. One of my ex bosses who I would normally use for a referee has terminal cancer, and so it is easy to put material losses into perspective.

You live in a lovely part of the world! We drive past quite often, as we go to Sydney quite a lot. (Next time Easter) - Breakfast Glenrowan, lunch Holbrook or Gundagai and like to make dinner in Sydney seems to be the order of the day on the Hume, so one day will make morning tea in Wang with you on the menu too!

Hello Rosemary - long time, no visit. What with Christmas, having my grand daughter stay with me, then catching a virus, I haven't visited many pages lately. I've really been enjoying your photos of New Zealand. Reminds me of my holiday there two years ago this month.
Just dropping off some for you to enjoy.
Cheers

5th February 2007
Weigh in for week 5
weight loss this week 0.8kg
total weight loss 6.9 kgs or just over 15lb
WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO
could have been a bit more but indulged in some pizza last night.
have been walking every day and as it is exceptionally hot here the walk has been followed by aerobics in the pool to cool down.
cheers
water of course

Well done, Rosemary. I will weigh in the morning. Have the feeling it won't be too good as I have indulged in a couple of glasses of red wine, and last night champagne. I am still walking though not quite 10,000 steps a day, and my pedometer keeps turning itself off. The weather has been too cold for me to enjoy golf and I have had a problem in the ball of my right foot, probably arthritis oh I hate this growing older thing.
Excuses, excuses must knuckle back down to serious light, sensible eating and exercise.

rosemary, you should be so proud for what you've done for yourself, and what you've done for the rest of us too. Well done.

Gosh Rose, please don't fade away! Good stuf on the weight loss. Remember you can always lose more by bungie jumping!

Awesome weigh in report, Rosemary! You are such an inspiration to all who are working so hard! Maybe you should do more of your exercise in the pool!

Brilliant rose, what more can I say x

thank you Keith, CG, Judy and André for the support with this major weight loss project. I am so pleased and grateful for everyone who is joining in with either improving their own health and fitness or supporting us in our quest.
cheers

Hello Rose!!

Lovely to see you!! and thanks for that drink... i have missed you guys soooo much!!

anyway, since virtual parties and (bad)poetry got us together in the first place, hesres one for your page...

i met her at a masked ball,
she was drunk and disorderly, is all.
but what a warm glow,
it gives me to know,
this rose, who is so loved by all!!

a-one
where have you been, I hope all is well with the family.
loved the poetry.
thank you

you're doing well Rose - just keep pizza for the first day of each week, not the night before the weigh in!!

Good Morning Rosemary,

I give up, how the hell did I gain 5 lbs in 2 days? I was feeling so good, actually back on track and decided to weigh myself, what a mistake that was, took all the air out of my sails. I will cheer everyone on in their accomplishments, but obviously I will not be joining the land of the thin anytime soon.

Doing okay with the chocolate thing rose, it still sits there and now I can actually look at it and smile.. I'm hoping it goes off quick then I can throw it.. (not down my neck of course)

Rose, thank you for the words of encouragement it helps a lot. I just don't know what to do, that was so depressing. Maybe I will try your suggestion and not weigh for a month and just try to stay on track with everything else, and if I weigh in a month and it doesn't go down I am going to chuck the damn thing out the window . Thanks you Rose, you are a love

Rosemary - you are one of a kind

Happy Valentines Day Roseeeee

Hey Rose, just testing that zinc!

Hi Rosemary - Thanks for the visit. My family and I vacationed there for about 11 years. There is nothing more beautiful that to watch to sun come up over the lake with a cup of coffee. Unfortunately, I am use to getting up early and I just can't sleep late, even on vacation.

Rose? ....is Rose here?

Somebody told me that I could find Rose here. OH hang on .....is that her.............that shadow (of her former self)?

Well done Rose - you are an inspiration - This week - big one (he he he) I hope!

Ah, Rosie, quit complaining about Keith's brightly shining moon. I've heard that he polishes those puppies up every day! LOL

Hiya Rose, it's great to put faces to conversations. Thank you for popping by my page. I went to your Flickr page and peeked at your pictures. Very nice shots...it just makes me want to take a trip down under more and more...(I also love dolphins) One day I'd love to tour your part of the world!

Rose - would you rather take off .3 or put on .3 ?

Well done on teh cm's and the weight. keep it up

Rosemary

I would just like to acknowledge, thank and congratulate you on your 'tolerance' comment on today's Sudoku (19/2/07). As many have said in the past, you are a kind, tolerant and wise woman. Cheers to you (with water of course)

Ditto Col

We all need tolerance. You expressed yourself well. Good on you!

Now, let's move on..... What did you do with the case of wine I sent Topaz for her birthday???

Good on ya! Great to hear you are still losing weight! And changing shape for the better!

Just popping in to say well done, bringing special water, chocolate flavour made by Col and I to cheer you up more xx
Ditto Col, K and C/G

wow thank you andré
chocolate flavoured water with no calories, how special.
sue
nice of you to drop by and say hello, hope all is going well for you too.

Hi Rosemary,

Thanks for dropping in. Job hunting - mmmm - say no more. This week, thought I had one to the point where the person interviewing me said if I didn't hear anything for a couple of days, not to worry, as he was just going to be getting approval from someone who was overseas at that time. So I really liked the job, was offered another, and knocked the other job back yesterday, because I thought this one was a cert. It wasn't, I didn't get it, so now with egg on my face considering whether I can ring the other job and say can I please have it. Hope that makes sense, got a full on infection, so not in the best frame of mind.

Can't wait to see how your diet is going this week. Hope it's going well!
