Ok friends, I apologize for my absence the last couple of days and, when I look back, for not being around much the whole month of January so far. First, I had a 5 day pain flare after the holidays and I was barely over that when a stomach flu hit. I started Physical Therapy again last week. Then this past Monday I had a doctors appointment out of town. Yesterday our computers were down - some local line issue and NOW is about the only time I'm going to be around until tomorrow afternoon. Whew - did ya catch all that? Bottom line is that I miss all of you and see that you have busy already this week.
My husband and I are in week Two on our diet using the online Weight Watchers program. Now it is getting darn hard. But we have found some great recipies online and I'm even getting Mike back into the kitchen to help me cook - YIPPEE! Gee, I figure I have ONLY about 22 more weeks if all goes well - gotta keep positive . HERE'S A QUESTION: How many of you take a day off from your diet to eat something not on your approved list? And, if so, how often do you enjoy these, "Days Off the Diet"? (I guess that was 2 questions.) Wow - it was so much fun seeing all your pictures from the last couple of days - like I've said, you've been busy. I loved them all! Billie - I am so impressed that you and Gaye are getting together for a face to face visit. That sounds like such a blast - I can just hear you two talking now. You better rest up - both of you!!! And take lots of pictures to share. Well, have a great Wednesday, everyone. I hope to check back in after Physical Therapy tomorrow afternoon. Happy Dieting, nancyh |

I am geting company in less than an hour so I can only be on here as short time.
Nancy. we have missed you! I thought maybe you were sick. I'm glad you are just busy. Oh yes, I take time off from my diet, but I have a hard time geting back on it also. Once I eat the things I crave, I want more. LOL Wendy, I'll have to look at you pic's later. I'm running late. Had company last night, then was on line. I got to straighten the house before company comes. ____ BC |

Nancy, I was wondering about where you were and if you were OK, glad you're back. Hope PT goes well.
I have a hard time staying on my plan and seem to go off more than I am on. When I am really losing and staying on plan, I do take a day off just to keep life fun. I think I will check out the Weight Watchers site. Although I think for my self I am going to HAVE to learn to just eat less...at least I think that might work? Wendy, I went to your tortieblog and enjoyed it very much. Wish you had a web cam on your cuties, what fun that would be to get to watch them. The parrot forum I have gone on before has had people put cams on their baby birds and it is so sweet to see the little babies. Billie enjoy your company. I am scared of snow Curious, it's always ice here when it snows in Georgia and we don't have the equipment to clear it away in our little town. I wouldn't mind seeing some real snow...you know the soft kind that can be walked and played in! I weighed yesterday and I weigh 211 1/2. Not as much as I thought it would be, I was glad about that. At least I have not gained ALL the 30 lbs I had lost...just some of it back. I think I was down to 207 some months ago. Please Good Fairy, Tinkerbell, or Santa Clause sprinkle me with fairy dust sooooo I can start shrinking. Gaye |

I haven't even picked a diet to stick to yet!
I am eating more salads though. My regular plan of exercise went out the window with my cold plus the freezing temps, snow and ice.. and -we're off our usual schedule around here because of the weather kids off work and scholl, hubby off work. I know excuses, excuses.... next week should be more normal
