Hey, Linda!

*LINDA, LINDA, LINDA!
* Have I got GOOD news for YOU!
*You have a new iMac??? I am amazed that the sales guys didn't tell you when you bought it about the fact that macs hardly EVER get viruses, worms, infected, etc!!!
*Don't take my word for it: do a google search on macs and how often they get infected...go to About.com and they have a huge Mac department that offers all the latest info, and places to ask questions.
*We have had our mac for 5 years; NEVER been infected, even in the beginning when I was so new I didn't even know how to set up an email account, let alone that there was such a critter known as a computer worm. LOL!
* Not bragging, just very grateful. The reason for this simple: macs make up only about 3 percent of the computers. Hence, the evil little geniuses that write the destructive programs want to hurt the most people, so write them for PC's. So far, there have not been any major ones for macs in all these years.
*And for those of you who disdain macs, we appreciate it's superiority for using in our chosen fields of photography and art. Otherwise, I would agree with Cherie, it is easier to interface everywhere with a PC, and they are cheaper (but sadly viruses and worms go along with that territory).
*Hugs from Mac country (Oregon), Loretta =^..^=
** What is true about you in your mind, you will live.**

Welcome

Quote From: gdsampson

Hi everybody.  Thanks  for the warm welcome.

 

This Board is going to be important part of my weight loss journey. 

 

I've bought Dr. Phil's book and have read it.  It's amazing.   So, this is what I'm doing.   I've starting documentating my weight loss journey using the seven keys.   I'm going to document/film EVERYTHING.  The whole journey....     I'm going to end up posting up the video clips on a website.  

 

I hope that in helping myself, I will also be able to inspire and motivate others.

 

I'm 30 years old, and weight 420+ pounds.  My goal weight is 220 pounds.   Also,  I want to take charge of my life to once and for all pursue my dream career of serving in the Army.  My wife is in the Army, and she challenged me to do what I have to do to join also so we can serve the nation together. 

 

At the end of the filming/documentary,  I plan on presenting it to Dr. Phil's show producers. 

 

If you want to be a part of this,  and if you have a video/digital camcorder,  then we can do this as a team.   I'm game....    

 

Let's put somethign together that any show producer will drool over....

 

Best!

 

Greg

You are brave to start this weight loss journey and even braver to make a video documentary.

 

I wish you well!

WHY DO WOMEN CRY?

WHY DO WOMEN CRY?             A LITTLE BOY ASKED HIS MOTHER, "Why are you crying"?  "Because I'm a women,"she told him.  "I don't undrstand," he said.  His mother just hugged him and said, "And you never will".  Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"  "All women cry for no reason",was all his dad could say.  The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry.  Finally he put in a call to GOD.  When GOD answered, he asked "GOD, why do women cry so easily?"  GOD said:  "When I made the woman she had to be SPECIAL"  I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort.  I gave her inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her chldren.  I gave her a hardness tat allows her to keep goig when everyone else gives up, and to take care of her family, through sickness and fatigue without complaining.  I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances even when her child has hurt her very badly.  And finally, I gave her a tear to shed.  This is hers exclusiviely to use whenever it is needed."  "You see my son,",said GOD, "The beauty of a women is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.  The beauty of a woman must be seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart_the place where LOVE RESIDES."            THIS IS WHAT I TRIED TO POST THIS AFTERNOON.  I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS.  HAVE A GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE. SEE YOU IN THE MORNING.  WENDIE ;  )

Oh My!

Quote From: jen_aussie

Hello Friends!

 

I missed the board while it was down and am glad that I have found you all again!

 

I have let my busy life get in the way of my weight loss goals and while I haven't put on any weight, I haven't lost any for a few weeks either.

 

I am down 52 pounds from my start weight last September and would really like to lose 20 pounds before September 12 this year.

 

So it is baby steps once again!

 

My goals for this week are

  • walking 45 minutes daily
  • 2 pieces of fruit per day
  • lots of vegetables
  • no processed food.

Looking forward to being more active on the board!

 

Jen

 

 

Good to see you!  3 cheers for maintaining the 52 lb loss!
