Hi and happy Saturday!!! Finally, my internet is fixed. It wasn't until late yesterday and the third repair guy in three days, did the problem get resolved. My husband & I knew the problem (old router), and the third guy was the only one that figured it out. I was getting so tired of going up for a couple of minutes and then down. I do a online and this was quite frustrating. I haven't been able to track my meals all week, so I'm hoping my calories/fat were in line. I took my Alli

Hi to all. Finally have my internet fixed. After six days of online/offline, it was very frustrating. I didn't get to read or post to anything. There were are few brief (10 minutes at at time, if I was lucky), moments that I was able to get on. I have an E..ay business and it's tough trying to make sales when you are offline. Told the cable folks, if they want me to pay them, they to keep me going!! I think that was to deaf ears. :o) I'm going to spend sometime today catching up on reading

Hello, just a quick post today. I've been having internet issues since this weekend. It's up and then it's down. Right now, we are up, but who knows how long. A technician is on the way this afternoon to "fix" the problem. They were out last month with the same issue. It's getting old. Trying to get caught up on posts, hopefully when the connection is fixed, I will be able to stay for more than 5-10 minutes at a time. So until then, my posts and readings are very quick.

Marcia, that's wonderful about the 3 lbs. And great advice about portion control and not beating ourselves up. When I posted yesterday, I was down a bit. But today, I'm much better. My husband stayed home today from work and wanted McD's for breakfast and I was real good! I had the Egg Mc with no cheese and put my own lo-fat on when I brought it home. Had some has browns too, all that was under the 18 grs of fat. So I was able to "cheat" but not end up messing up the whole day

Hi gang!! Hope everyone has had a great day! It has been raining here almost all day. And my husband stayed home from work today, having a "mental health" day. So I didn't get out and walk, very disappointing. But it was a good day to get some work done on the computer. I work at home and rainy days are good for getting things kind of caught up. Elia, I think it is great you are almost at your goal weight. What an inspiration!!! We do have to go to the keys sometime and go diving (of

Hi everyone, Yes, I've been lacking on checking the boards. I haven't got into the groove yet. Another excuse!! Well, I weighed in today and am down 1/2 lb, making my total so far 5 lbs. I would like it to be better, but it is totally my fault that it isn't. I do so well during the week, but my weekends are my downfall. Elia, I hope your trip to the keys was wonderful. You probably have posted on another thread and I'm heading there next. Lynn, thanks for the heads up on the videos

Hi gang, I'm back. Yes, I've been off the boards for about a week. Excuses are my specialty, so I won't bore you with them. I weighed in today and am down 1/2 lb. making a total so far of 5 lbs. Want to see more, but it's my own fault. I haven't been very good over the weekends. I do like my wine. Elia, sounds like you have done really well on weight loss. You've reached your goal? Right? How was the diving. I have to go back and read some of the posts, I am a little behind

Hi Everyone!! Welcome Marcia! Wow, Alaska! That is the opposite end of the US from me. How's temp up there? What part of Alaska are you from? I live on the west coast in the middle of Florida. Lynn, sounds like you have a wonderful family. So your last 2 children are off to school next year, will they be living close by? I just as familiar with your part of the country as I am with Alaska. I have been many places to visit in the US, but Iowa and Alaska are among the many places I've never

Good morning everyone! Linda, sorry to hear about your brother, hope all is well with him and he is on the road to recovery. Take care of yourself, too. Guess I need to read some past posts, who are Spencer and Charlie? Why don't they like other? Are they pets? Have patience and maybe it will work out. Judy, be careful loading that water. Those cases are kind of awkward, and heavy!! I'll have to check Walgreens to see we have them on sale here in Florida, I do like Dasani water, too. My husband
