Keys have a way of getting lost most anywhere. BF:hug::hug::hug:

That is a weird symptom. I hope that you have a full recovery soon.
Hang in there. :hug::hug::hug:

thank goodness the eye pain is gone! but the coughing has gained momentum. I woke last night to a coughing fit that I could not catch my breath. so at 4 got up and took a mucinex and slept in the other bed room.
When ever I start to laugh I start to cough.
A friend of mine is going to help me rake and yard work and paper work today.
yeah I will offer to pay her, she could use the money.

Bizi I've been coughing also. We are heading into the tree pollen season. I've been coughing all Winter. I don't know what to expect this Spring. I heard on the news that this is going to be a bad allergy season. That's what they said last year. :confused: BF:hug::hug::hug:

took a 20 minute walk around the neighborhood, helped rake some leaves this afternoon.
Our yard waste pick up service have not been around the neighborhood for 3 weeks. The grass is dieing!
Wonder what is the problem???
Our neighbors have called several different offices to complain.
Tuesday is the day they are supposed to come....I am not holding my breath.
There is so much yard work to do.
It is overwhelming! http://assets3.sparkpeople.com/asset...ticons/e40.gif
Grateful for my friend who helped me today!
wonder what the week will bring?
I will go to the gym tomorrow, have not been since wednesday...I am still coughing so am taking it easy.

Bizi,

I hope that the yard wast stuff gets sorted out.

Congrats on 60 dyas! :heartthrob:
And Congrats also on your 147.5 pounds! :heartthrob:

Mari

thank you mari!
I could have never lost the weight had I still been drinking still.
Went to the gym last night. (Walked an hour, 3.5 miles) julie was there she has been going often. (She wants to lose weight and get into better shape she is getting married with in 6-12 months). So proud of her. She even talked her boy friend into joining. But he is weird. Did not want to give his bank account to them to automatically with draw the $10.80 a month from his account so she set it up for her account and he will pay her. He also quit college after his junior year because he felt like he could learn more on his own. He now bartends at the bar where Julie manages.
She wants to talk about nutrition...so we are meeting up next wednesday at 7 at a local coffee shop. Can I really look her into her face and tell her that we are supposed to eat 11 servings of fruits and vegggies a day? I only eat about 5 or six. Which I think is doing pretty good!

You can always tell her what your supposed to eat. But also that for you it doesn't work. So when you eat 5 or 6 you are happy.
When it comes to her boyfriend, I personally understand the not wanting
to give information. My husband usually wont let a company do that. So
I've always had to be careful which groups I give my own information.

And lots of the time, i'd give mine and he gave me back the money.

Bizi,

That 11 looked too high so I researched:
It depends on your overall calories for the day.

The latest dietary guidelines call for five to thirteen servings of fruits and vegetables a day (2½ to 6½ cups per day), depending on one’s caloric intake. (1) For a person who needs 2,000 calories a day to maintain weight and health, this translates into nine servings, or 4½ cups per day (2 cups of fruit and 2½ cups of vegetables).

The Harvard School of Medicine has a good healthy eating plate that you can show her:

Most of these types of recommendations have people eating a lot of grains and carbs.
That is stupid. Most Americans are eating too many.
I rarely eat grains. I do eat lots of carbs in the beans, lentils, chic peas that I eat.
