Karen - Thought I would let you know that I am doing okay too.  Nice to see the 219 - you will be back to the 212 before you know it - am at 216 and wanting to get back to the 212.   

 

Thinking of you all this weekend and hoping that you are having a lovely day with healthy food, some IE and your 8 glasses of water.  Love and Hugs, Shirley 

nice to see you here today as well.I know Saturdays are busy days for most. 

  

well you will be seeing 212 before you know it.

Reen

Quote From: reenbc

Well every-one Machin was released from hospital today, to come to our home. . Still has the staph infection and it is still draining a lot. . but I am sure this is a much better enviroment for her to be in. .  Her Hubby is also coming here for the weekend as well as the 3 girls will still be here. . This week anyways. . . She has steps at her house so until all her staples are out this is the best place. . They will be removed next Friday. . 

 

 

Karen . . .great news about your weight loss, as well as, the new method of testing the nodes.Sound like it is much less invasive and not as painful. . . I am not in a losing mode nor will I be until our house is our own again. .  .Too many mouths to feed and too much cooking. . . 

 

BB BEV. . . My prayers are with you G/F. . you have had just too darn much stuff happening the past few years. . As Karen said a number of things can be causing the memory loss. . With me sometimes it is my selective listening. . I tend to ignore a lot of what is told me if I am not interested. . I know it is a very bad habit and can appear rude but it is just not intentional. . I think it is because I  had a career that was so exacting and detailed nothing could be forgotten. . Then when I sold the business I think I retired that part of my make-up as well. . . Please let us know what the Dr.'s say. . and if you are not pleased with the first Dr. be sure and get a referral to one who is sympathetic to you. .  

 

DIANA. . . Short and sweet but so often you hit the nail on the head. . Thanks for posting you seem to have a real grasp of things. . Some good advice coming form you Gal. . 

 

VICKIE. . So hoping for you and your daughter to have a good understanding after her visit today. . Hope you are feeling a bit better and PLEASE. . let the patch do the job. . but it does need your perserverience to make it work. . . I am convinced that the cigarette smoke could be a big part of your allergy problems so maybe this will help your over-all health. . . Here's  my prayer to give you the strength to kick the habit. .  

 

MARION. . Did I miss a message that you wwere having another open house? ? If so sorry, but it may have been in an e  mail to Karen.  .Whatever. .I wish you every success. . It can be a pain in the butt. . but oh my I remember how clean my house always was when I knew strangers were going through it. . .  

 

Hugs to all. .. take care. . .Reen/Pooz 

 

  

thank you for your well wish concerning daughter and I. 

  

I am trying hard to let the patch do it's job.I have slipped--as you know.put I am back on track there as well.things being calm here really helps. 

I too am hoping this will help my over all health I am trying to regain any improvement I can. 

  

Thank you for your prayer for strength-I need the boost of strength right now.

Say girl so sorry to hear you are having stomach problems today. Hope it is feeling a bit better for you tonight. Glad that your daughter knows that you still love her even though she's moving out.  

I'm hoping you have a relaxing evening and can get a good nights sleep. Hang in there missy.

Short and Sweet

Sometimes short and sweet is just not enough. I have not been reading all of the postings and have not been faithfully on the board for several weeks. Sometimes I may not have the full picture of what everybody is going through and respond  with a directness or dry humor that may not be taken as I mean it. I guess what I'm saying ladies is just know up front that you are all dear to me and never do I mean to ever hurt anyone's feelings. Now do I mix up postings.....yes I do, when I'm trying to answer or comment on several postings in one posting.....if I haven't taken notes I certainly have mixed things up a bit.  This is a work in progress for me and I will attempt to improve in this area.  

  

I probably won't be able to keep up with all the postings everyday however, I do intend to pop on regularly and at least jump in and at least let you know I've thought about you all and am interested in how you are doing but I won't have the whole picture day to day. To those of you who have lost a loved one recently and in the past, I know that you are going through a difficult time in your lives. Going through you are and you will get through it. We all will. We are strong. Yes, we miss our loved ones you bet. Whatever time we have is a blessing. So dear friends give your family and friends a big hug and here comes one from me too. Stay with us in this journey to lose weight and also be there for one another whenever we can. 

  

Have a good evening ladies.  

  

Hugs 

chilly

thanks  

  

My stomach is doing alittle better.I wanted to make sure I told her so again--as she moved out on the 17th.I have always told them I may not approve of what they do---but I will always love them. 

  

Well daughter never came by Saturday. 

  

I found out the person who came and knocked on the door while I was asleep earlier today--was friends of dh needing him to check out a vehicle problem they were having.

Maximizing Weight Loss Through the Tough Times

DH didn't fill the precription for my patches when I thought he did.  and

well dh chose not to fill my prescription for the patches--and I have used all he had left from the free class.So here I am once again with no extra support to quit.He chose to spend money on getting that computer up and running instead.How special that makes me feel.
