Hi, I wanted to post before I went out in the garage. My internet and phone were both out most of the day. My mobile phone worked but I like using my tablet better. My husband got off early, because of working over earlier in the week. It was another cold day, and I stayed in. Its suppose to get to 70 on Sunday. I had another salad today for lunch with Thousand Island lite dressing, its good for a change. I usually eat a lite ranch or a variety of ranch like 3 cheese ranch lite or southwest ranch lite.
Marie-My husband gets impatient waiting on me in the car, he always leaves it to me to turn everything off and then wonders what took me so long.
I will check back later. Janice0 -
I have not had any insulin today at all. fixing to go and check it one more time before bed and hope I do not have any lows blood sugar to wake me up tonight.
Marie0 -
I made it fine without any fast acting insulin yesterday Hope today is good as well.
A most beautiful day here. I think spring is here to stay.
no cooking today.

Good afternoon, its pretty here also, I have been cleaning and vacuming, I got my husband to take down kitchen light fixture glasses and he cleaned them and put them back up, they look so much better. I'm getting ready to go outside after I get cleaned up. The day is flying by, Janice0

Good morning, misfits! Happy Sunday!
Marie...such good news about your insulin intake!
Janice...how was your sister when you went to the nursing home?
Hello to everyone one else...I can't get back to the other page to comment.
We were out most of the day yesterday. It was a gorgeous day although kinda cool. Getting ready to go to church and wanted to drop in to see you guys. My new low weight is still holding, and strange though it may seem, I am past wanting to binge on anything and everything! If I had given in to the cravings, I would be still fighting the gain and hating myself.
Stay strong, losers! If not now, when?

Alice and I went out to eat. today. We went to Olive Gardens I had a gluten free pasta with sauce and veggies , salad and 1 roll I did manage to stay on the Starch Solution plan and I had 1 roll which was not gluten free . the pasta was. tho. so I think I handle that just fine I had plan on a little cheating.
Alice help me get some of my files in order on My computer. I had them a mess.
One more day in February and we start a new month.I will have to check my weight the first of Feb. to see if I made my 5 lbs for the month in the morning.If not we have a new month. What a weird February we have had. Be ready for March and all of this good food I have been having.
yes Connie I to am happy with these lower numbers.on my blood sugar. Then again its hard to get every thing balance out Just right/I just got to keep working on it.
,JANICE. NANCY , RUTHIE, AND ESTHER HAVE A BLESSED DAY.

Here is a picture I just took from our balcony from the condo. I can't believe tomorrow is our last day.
It has gone so fast. We have had some cool days but warming up now and we went to the beach
on Saturday and today. The food has been fantastic. See you when I return.

Morning, losers! Happy Monday!
Shirley...so beautiful and just the place of peace I need to be!
Marie..glad you enjoyed your outing. I have not been there in a long time. We used to go for the soup and salad, and I would fill up on breadsticks!
Kinda quiet in here...where are you guys? I hope things are going well with all of you.
It's a beautiful morning today and a big day for us as we are supposed to close. There are some issues with the house that may prevent that but, as I said before, we are not in a hurry. We do a final walk through at noon then the closing is at 2:00. I am mentally prepared for whatever is going to happen so will not be running for a full out binge today. In fact, I am down .08 this morning so that will stop my wanting to self-medicate with food.
Make it a great day, losers!

Good afternoon, everyone
Shirley-That view is beautiful, a friend of mine is in Cancun right now, and she also showed some great pictures.
Marie-You did great on your plan at Olive Garden, I have never been there, my daughter Sarah likes it alot, she would get their soup and or pasta, she is not a big salad fan. Its great Alice is such a big help to you, and you all get out to eat. Sarah came over Saturday night with her fiance, we like to get out and go shopping or eat out too. The past 2 months have flown its hard to believe tomorrows March.
Connie-I hope they got everything fixed and you get to close today, so glad to hear your down more, you are doing great, especially with the stress of the house. I didnt end up going to nursing home the other day, but my other sister did yesterday. I havent talked to her yet, but if something was wrong she would have already called me.
I had a bad spell late Saturday night, I was hurrying around in the kitchen and I blacked out and fell on my ceramic tile, head first, luckily, it wasnt worse. I have a cut above my lip, a knot on my forehead, a bruise on my chin, a swollen and bruised knee, plus a few bruises on my hands, plus just sore. I have never ever fainted before and I have scared my husband to death, plus I am freaked out alittle, too. I am now afraid its going to happen again and it will be a worse result. I plan on going to the doctors soon. My stomach has been upset and I barely ate Sunday about 600 calories, I got sick in the middle of night Saturday from indigestion, so I am sure thats why. Have any of you ever had anything like this happen before? Apparently alot of people faint and it can be nothing or a cardiac problem, so no big help there online. Gonna go for now. Janice

Janice that fainting don't sound good. Keeping my fingers cross for you. I have not got my soup made yet so I will microwave me a red
Potato to go ith some green beans I have cooked for my lunch

Oh and you too Esther.
Nancy do hope all is well.
Marie0 -
Janice- Oh! so sorry to hear about your fall. Good that you are going to the doctor and they will get
to the bottom of it.
Going home tomorrow and we had two days of great warm weather and beach weather. There is a
storm approaching in Toronto with freezing rain and snow and that is where we land. We are staying
an extra night in the hotel and venturing out the next morning to go home.
See you when I return.
Shirley0 -
Hi guys. Sorry I have been MIA again. It seems to happen to me a lot. No idea why The ballet is over finally. It was a great performance. The high school choir sang while the kids danced. The choir did a wonderful job. They sounded great. The girls that danced were wonderful as well. I laid around yesterday and decompressed. I have to apologize for my lack of posting. I would fall asleep posting unless I posted while the rehearsal was going on.
Esther0 -
hi all,
sorry i haven't checked in for a bit. don't have a ton of time right now. been in a holding pattern, definitely should change something.....
janice, i hope you are ok, sounds like maybe you had a little virus and were dehydrated....hope that was it
Connie, you are the woman!!! wow, you go girl!!
Marie, how's the starch solution?
Shirley, how was vacation? hope we travel as much as you one day:)
Ester, how are the girls? the knee?
Nancy, how is ben?
everyone else, hello!!
Stephanie0 -
Good morning and happy Super Tuesday!
I voted early last week so glad!
I'm loving the starch solution but I'm still dealing with near constant headaches. Trying to read up on that to see if the change in food is the cause.
We had a beautiful spring day yesterday and spent as much time outside as possible. but cloudy and rain today. I actually enjoy the changes in weather from time to time.
Connie - did you close? I may have missed your post. We have decided to stay put so I am very relieved to know that! Living in Limbo doesn't work for me.
Marie, Shirley, Janice, Nancy, Esther, Steph and everyone else have a great day!
Ruthie0 -
Hi friends...just checking in to let you know we did close...yay!! It was a very long day but very pleasant. Everything has been done and the one major issue was resolved in our favor. I will save the story for another time.
Doing well and will be moving this week. I'll check in when I can. Thanks for listening to all my rants/complaints/melt downs.
Janice..hoping that you are improving and will find the cause. The Internet can be a blessing and a curse...it can really scare you so try not to believe all that you read.
Connie0 -
Good morning,
Connie glad you are ready to move to your new home.
Still enjoying the starch solution but I have not lost any weigh for 2 weeks.
Not sure about what to do???
Hope all is well with everyone.
Nancy0 -
Nancy I realized I still had to track calories or at least pay attention to my portion sizes. Not sure if that helps you but I'm loving it too!0
-
I feel better today, not sleeping good though. Hopefully tonight I will sleep better. Trying to take it easy, but sometimes thats not as easy as you think.
Connie-Glad you got to close on your house, it has to be a relief.
0 -
Ruthie, I think you are right about portion size. I didn't think I was going overboard but I will start measuring and keeping track better. It is such an easy plan and that is one reason I like it so much. I am all about easy when it comes to preparing my meals.
Thanks

I like the simplicity of this plan too. I am not seeing the pounds drop of but sure seeing it in my blood sugar readings.. an blood pressure numbers. I am like you too I think we need to to be comparability of our calories For no matter what plan we are on Calories do count. or at least till we know how happy stopping point is.
