Morning, misfits!
Marie...so glad Jerry is okay and you got the help you needed quickly. My hubs drops low at night so he has to keep those small bottles of liquid glucose nearby.
I need to grocery shop today and run errands. I am down 1 pound this morning....I guess this is my "whoosh" after many weeks of no loss. This puts me at 198.6 so maybe I won't venture over to Twoterville.
Stay strong today, friends!

No oon't ever go back to Twoterville, Connie I hover around it for 9 years. And I certain don't want to go back.......knocking on wood.......You done so good.
Is you hubby on insulin? Jerry is on the pills and never had a low before. after taking the pills for I guess close to 10 years.really tought he was having a heat stroke. For he got out in this high heat Cutting grass yesterday.

Marie..my hubs is Type 2 and takes the pills. Since he eats like I do, his normal dose is too much. If he eats low sugar fruits like strawberries and no- sugar added peaches before bed, he does pretty well. He definitely needs a few carbs everyday to keep from dropping so low.
Yesterday he cut the grass in mid- afternoon!! He will not listen to me when I tell him he should do it early in the morning!

Hi,
Marie-So glad your husband is okay. I have had to deal with sugar lows from my son and oldest sister alot. They are both type 1 diabetics and both on insulin pumps now, they use to take shots. I can always see a low in my son's eyes.
I have a doctors appointment tomorrow at 10 with a Gyno oncologist. I need to get some questions ready to ask her. I am kind of blank. I will get back with you all after my visit. Janice1 -
Janice- good luck at the doctor's tomorrow. I am sorry to hear of your diagnosis, but if a His will get rid of it I say go for what they tell you. My thoughts are with you today.
Connie - Woo Hoo!!! you have hit onderland, awesome job!
Marie - How is Jerry doing after the low blood sugar?
We are at the cottage on the lake this week and the weather has been fabulous. We got all the gardens weeded yesterday, Dave got the lake water hose in and did all kinds of jobs. We had some company last night and they brought Emmitt their 4 month old baby, so cute! Today was an hour Yoga class in the city
this morning as well as tomorrow. We did do some fishing today but no luck.
My internet is terrible, always going out and have to restart. So I will check in when I can.

Shirley I have that problem too. So irritating.
Jerry Sugar is under control. We took him to his primary doctor today and he suspected He was over dose so he lower the amount he is taking. But he still have memory problems . his Doctor is checking a doctor out for him to have that all check out. I realize now some of the things Buzz is going thru. It is not fun.Just something I will have to learn to live with.

Morning, friends!
Janice...thoughts and prayers follow you to the doc today.
Marie...glad you guys got to the doc yesterday...hope all will be well with you guys.
Headed to the gym earlier today for training. We are closing on the sale of the old house at 10 and then my son and DIL will be here later on for the weekend. Holding on to my new weight and loving seeing those numbers on the scale!
Make it a great day, losers!

Last nit he ate is dinner which was some fried chicken Alice had stopped and got for im on their way home. e ate is dinner wile I was eating mine but forgot and was hunting for the box of chicken which we could not fine. gosh we look everywhere trash cans, trash cans outside fridge, freezer, cabinets. Wile e was going thru the trash cans outside I decided to have a better look in the fridge and low and behold he put the boxes behind one of my containers and could not see it. He still proceeded to fix him a plate warm it up and tried to eat it but was not hungry so put it up. , i tried to tell him e had already had his dinner But It did not soak in. this morning he is doing great. We will be going to the
store here soon.

I am having a terrible time typing these days I think the keys are not going down like they should be. Or i am not hitting them hard enough.
But anyway I have been thinking about what I would like to get down to. I thought about a size 12 or14. I was xxlarge when I started out and now down to 16. That should be attainable somewhere down the road.
Marie0 -
Hi guys........ I decided to take advantage of the nice weather today. There is a lake up by my house that I have been wanting to walk up to but it is a tough walk for me. I haven't been up there since 2012. It bothered my knees back then to walk up but I did it anyway. There is a beautiful trail part way around the lake. It continues across a mountain ridge and connects with another lake but I can't go that far yet. Maybe next summer I can try that. Here is a pic of the lake and trail........

Morning, losers!
Janice...I hope we hear from you soon.
Esther...beautiful pics!
Marie...I hope you have a great day out with your girls and Jerry. The way you are going, it's only a matter of time before your sizes drop.
Nancy...are you back home yet?
We had a successful closing on the old house yesterday and had a fun celebration with the kids here last night. They have gone out on the pontoon with their dad this morning and I am dog sitting.
Have a great Father's Day weekend, everyone!
Connie1 -
Hi everyone,
I am home, got back about 11am. Had a great visit but good to be home.
Connie, I know you are still celebrating reaching Onederland!!!
Janice, Hope things are going well with you. You were in my thoughts yesterday.
Marie, Glad Jerry is doing better. I know you will be in size 14 before too long.
Hope everyone else is doing ok.
Nancy1 -
Hi, I found out that she wants me to have radiation and chemo, rather than a hysterectomy. She feels that if the hysterectomy wasn't enough and I still needed the other this would be the best way to handle it, plus the complications with surgery and your bladder. It is a 5 week 5 day a week radiation treatment and for 5 weeks 1 chemo a week, plus radiation implants sometime. I am a Stage 1B she said after examining me and my files. I have to get a pep scan soon and see the radiation doctor, too. This could all change after scan, like everything else has.
Marie-I hope Jerry is doing better today.
Connie-Congratulations on the selling of your house, thats great.
Nancy-Glad you made it home safely.
Gotta go, I already lost my post once when the phone rang. I need to run to the store.Janice1 -
Keeping up with posts even though internet is sparse. We are sitting by the lake and it is a hot one but
the wind is picking up. I am flaying at the bugs, no fun.
Janice- Thinking of you and the road ahead you must travel.
Connie - Congrats on the selling of the house.
Marie - Enjoy your Father's Day lunch.

Connie you are bursting with all sorts of good news.Selling of your old house was pretty fast.
Janice hate to hear what you are going through My thoughts will remain with you throughout your ordeal.
Nancy glad you are back home
Shirley Now don't you eat too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know what happens when you do.
We did have a lovely lunch. I had A salad and had them to Dice my baked potato up to put on top of my salad. took my own fat free dressing. This is 8 weeks of being on the starch solution challenge. So far have not fell into temptations We did not go out to lunch till 2 Pm So i had a small air fry potato with BBQ sauce. about 11AM to tie me over till then. Did not think I could do it. I guess Potatoes is my diet pill. I am starting a new challenge in the morning/. It consist of choosing one starch to eat at every meal for 10 days. Either I can go fruit free or have 2 fruits a day. I am going with 2 fruits and if i can do without a fruit I will.So off to the races in the morning.

Happy Sunday, misfits!
Marie...it was a blessing to sell the old house that quickly! It was on the market about 45 days. You are doing so well...glad you enjoyed your lunch!
Janice...prayers for you as you go through this phase.
Shirley...the cottage sounds so peaceful!
Nancy..we did celebrate the sale of the house and Father's Day. I enjoyed my brocoli dip, chips, and sweet tea Vodka! I was right back on track Saturday. It feels good to enjoy a few things off plan and have the strength to return to the plan after.
It's cooler here today and I will put steaks on the grill later today after church. I hope you guys have a fantastic Sunday!
Stay strong!
Connie0 -
Marie - Yes i have been off plan, we did buy snacks at Bulk Barn, gluten free, but we did have ice cream for dessert other than that, drinking not so much, and good meals.
Today we fished and caught 3...Dave 2...Shirley 1...but couldn't keep them due to slot size. Darn!!
Yesterday I caught one too but couldn't keep it again.
I did two yoga classes this week and walked most days around the lake, but the bugs were bad.
It should be better next month when we come back in July. I skipped today's walk:sunglasses.
We are invited out for dinner today at 3pm for Father's Day and they have a 4 month old baby.
Happy Father's Day to all the husbands, grandpas and uncles

Hi,
Marie-Your hair looks cute, it's nice to have the hairdresser, do it at your house for you. The video is funny, and granddaughter looks like she's enjoying herself and new job position.
I am trying to let my hair grow, but it is hot, I normally like mine shorter in the summer. Janice0 -

Marie, I like your haircut...how great that you have your hairdresser come to the house.
Shirley, are you keeping up with your meditation?
Connie how great that your house sold so fast.
Jake's back surgery is scheduled for next Wednesday. Today he decided to make two huge batches of marinara sauce so there would be plenty in the freezer to last for a long time in case he can't do it again for a long time.
