Hi you two, good to hear from you, so glad Bill is doing better Jane, I know he feels better just being home with you.  Dolores, I don't know what I do, I just try not to eat so much that I am miserable and I love to snack too, just try to watch what I snack on.,   I know one thing, I am DRINKING MORE WATER than I ever have.  I try to drink at least  1 green tea a day, it makes a large glass full.  I drink it hot.  I try not to eat anything after I eat supper, and I have to admit, it's hard sometimes.  If I feel like I just have to have something, I microwave 94% fat free popcorn, and drink more water.  I do need to really get with the exercise because when I was losing my weight, I did'nt exercise enough, that's why I am looking for a threadmill, I will walk on it.   Dolores, it's probably worse on you with all the snow you have, and can't get out very much and maybe it's depressing.  Do you read or have a hobby you could work on?   Jane, can you eat the same things Bill eats?  Well, guess I'd better get off here and try to do something.  I did do my ironing yesterday but I need to vacuum this room, it's where my cat stays most of time, because it has windows and she loves laying in the sun and looking out.    So till later, take care, Lois                                               

Don't know what happened there.  LOL  AS I started to say,  Thanks for sharing your tips on how you are loosing the weight.  I need to start drinking more water.  I think I have done pretty well on my eating this morning.  I have not ridden the bike yet.  I am going to do that this afternoon as I don't eat during that time.  Guess I should get me some green tea.  I am not to fond of tea tho.  I believe the exercise that I do does help me a lot.  So I try to keep that up even when I am not eating well.  Don't want to get out of the habit of that to.

Sometimes winter does get depressing with all the snow and not being able to get out to much.  With the girls gone it gets a little lonesome to.

I wouldn't mind being laying in the sun with your cat Lois.  LOL

Joy, What a cute Christmas present your husband gave you.  LOL  Would love to join you in your Bible study.  Well guess I better get busy.  I have to pay bills today, or they will be coming after me.  LOL

Youall have a good one,

Dolores

I know youall get tired of me talking about the weather.  LOL  BUT it is below 0 this morning.  Lois I do wish I could come down to that warm sunshine.  ; )  I am looking fwd to summer time.  The summers here are wonderful.

I have to get out in this weather this morning to, as I have a doctors appointment at 930.  Then I am going grocery shopping to.  Like you Lois, my cupboards are bear to.  I am doomed when I don't have salad fixings.

I to hope Bill is still improving.  I am keeping him in my prayers to.  Thank you for continue prayer for Glenna.

Everyone have a great day.  I need to start getting things ready to head out.  Have to start the car so it can warm up a bit.

Dolores

It is cloudy again today---we have l day of sun and 2 of clouds.   Temps are not bad for this time of year--so I guess I shouldn't complain.   Bill is doing ok---his blood sugar count is high so the doctor has put him some meds hoping to bring it down---rather than insulin at this time---if his pancreas doesn't start working on it own then he will go on insulin---they are still hoping part of it will start working again.   His cummidin count was high again today so he is still off blood thinner meads.    He has to be very careful not to fall or cut himself---they don't want him to go out in public unless necessary.   His Resistance is low and could pick up infections.   Lois; you asked if I can eat  what he eats----yes but I eat too much of it----he does eat good food and the right kind---I just don't seem to be able to stop eating.    When I worry---I eat-- Bill has an appointment with the surgeon on the 24th---he will have a MRI at that time and then the dr. will decide if it is ok to remove his gall bladder.     Doris;  as much as I love snow---you can keep it this year---I have to do the driving and don't like driving in it.   They say we might get snow flurries tonight ---hope it goes south or north of us.  

I am really going to try and get back on track----I know I will feel better---ONE DAY AT A TIME 

Jane

Would love to see the sun for a while.  LOL  It is about 4 above 0 this morning.  and the trees are all white.  It is beautiful, but cold.  Guess I should take some pictures.

Peanut brittle: is one of my favorites.  I love that stuff.  I am sure glad I don't have any around, be cause if I did, I would be eating it right now.  LOL

I am trying very hard to make good food choices today.  BUT I have been in the peanut butter jar a couple of times.  Not much just a little bit on my apple.  I will be glad when it is all  gone.  I am not going to buy any more for a while when this is gone.  My husband likes to take peanut butter and crackers in his lunch tho.

Well guess I better get with the program and start doing something around here.

Everyone have a great day.

Hugs,

Dolores

For some reason, I almost missed your post.  Good thing I went back or I would have.

Jane,  good idea to keep Bill in.  Don't want him getting any infections for sure.

Jane, I eat when I worry, or am bored,  I think that is mostly my problem.  We both need to quit doing that, BUT HOW?  I don't really know the answer to that.  But we have to keep trying.

I know what you mean about driving in the snow,  I don't like to do that either, but I have to sometimes.  This year has seem to be worse on me than usual and I don't have to get out to go to a job any more.  It is very cold today.    I am so looking fwd to summer.

Lets try this week to really get back on track and get this weight off.
