    Hi Diane! A cruise is a great motivation, lol! I'm new to this thread too, but want to welcome you and encourage you. I remember a quote that might help you, "Don't look back, you're not going that way anymore." You got this!

    la8dl: Welcome to a great group, you sweet young thing. Best advice: 1. Stop in here often for support 2: Log every bite and swallow 3. Move more. It is best if exercise is fun because you'll want to do it because you enjoy it, not just because you should. :flowerforyou:

    Meg: (((HUGS))) I'm so sorry about the loss of Benny Beagle. Our fur children are such a blessing in our lives. :heart: :broken_heart::heart:

    We not only got the access area for going under the house cleared for the raccoon abatement crew that is coming tomorrow, we also got our Christmas Decorations moved back up into the garage attic. It has been a quietly productive day. :bigsmile: I need to admit a little embarrassment that it took so long to get our Christmas boxes put away. :embarassed:

    Penny Enjoy the grandkids! We'll be here when you get back! t6220.gif

    Sarah Flood cleaning = LOTS of calories. Ugh.

    Lisa Enjoy your Gramily time! Can't wait to see your paintings... Ooooh! I love that stained glass peacock painting! and Crapweasel - LOL!!!

    Barbie That sounds like a perfect day. A lovely ballet of a day...

    Carol/Peach I love Pomeranians. I used to have a Pomchi named Dusty who was the SMARTEST dog I have ever had. Well except maybe my Coton, Bailey. He's pretty smart.

    Lanette The little shoes are made of felted wool. This is the first time she has made shoes. I love them. Now she is making a pair of Olivia shoes with the national flower of Corsica on them, to honor Olivia's father's heritage. I will post them once they are done.

    Beth Sending healing thoughts for your knee. So sorry you are derailed by your knee.

    Ginger First, it's really hard when there are lots of goodies around that aren't on your food plan. Second, you probably did set yourself up by not eating enough. Third, there are probably not too many of us here who haven't messed up. I know I have. Yesterday, as a matter of fact. Peppermint Patties at work. Ugh. and Fourth, maybe next time you could get up, brush your teeth again, and pop some sugarless gum in your mouth and then read a book for 15 minutes to give yourself some time to decide if you really want that pizza or whatever. Buy yourself a little time. Several people here have mentioned similar strategies that seem to work for them. My strategy is to freeze the leftover pizza right away. For some reason I am not tempted to get food out of the freezer. I know that is quirky. (((Hugs))) You've got this.

    Katla So glad you are going to get the rest of the raccoon damage repaired. I know you will be glad to have that behind you.

    Pip Love the Airstream. So nifty.

    Diane, Carmen, Lynne Welcome! As Rori says, together we can do this!

    Lynne I love that quote, "Don't look back, you're not going that way anymore."

    Meg Oh, Meg, so sorry about sweet Benny. Breaks my heart. Sweet Doggy...


    Here is a link to a nestcam of Olivia to cheer everyone's day. For the newbies, Olivia was born in early February and was very ill shortly after birth. She had cardiopulmonary arrest and multi-organ failure but through excellent medical care and her own indomitable spirit plus the love of her mom & dad, she is now thriving:

    Joyce Do you have 2 different MFP accounts? An old one and a current one? If so, would you have signed up for the old MFP account on the iPad? Just a thought. Although it doesn't seem logical that your bookmark would be on both accounts...so never mind...I dunno. LOL! Anyway, I like the artwork. Talented kiddos.

    Meg - So sad to see Benny has passed over the Rainbow Bridge.He was well loved and will stay in your heart forever.

    Lovely afternoon in the glass studio today. I've decided it is time to try making goblets. The first attempt blew up in the glory hole. Gotta work on maintaining the right heat. This is going to be fun!

    Janetr Mia is off oxygen! Yippee!!

    Ginger Love the journal...thank you so much for posting this, it is wonderful...the part about finishing each day reminds me of one of my Mom-isms...she used to say "Do everything in your power to get the outcome you want, and then let go of the outcome." I loved my mom.
