I found all your lost weights....want them back???? PLEASE!!!
I'm gonna have skinny hands and wrists though from playing farm town and harvesting everyones fields. I harvested for the better part of 5 hours tonight. didn't get dinner until almost 10pm. I need a life! Or an intervention!!
Great going all you losers. Hopefully I will be a loser next week too.0 -
Ok girls and Zano I need a kick in the *kitten*!! I took the whole week off for my vacation and did crappy. I didn't bother to try, I didn't drink water I did nothing but walk and I gained several lbs. I came home Tuesday and I could have gotten back on track starting Wednesday but I said " I'll just wait til Saturday after the weigh in since I already blew it. It's Saturday and all I can think about it eating! So please help!! Anyone with free long distance who can call me and chew me out???? LOL0

Crazybee, what's wrong with you girl.... snap out of it.... all your hard work is going to go down the drain if you don't fast... You had a nice break and slipped ok... get back to reality... come on...you can do it... go do something...go for a walk....drink some water....come on.... don't quit on us now...0
-
crazyb - it's not "tomorrow", it's right now. Whatever you did a minute ago, a day ago, a week ago - start RIGHT THIS MINUTE and do better. No it's not true that "I already blew it so what difference does it make"... every bit over that you eat makes ounces that add on... undoing your hard work. Just start RIGHT NOW. You CAN CAN CAN CAN do this.
ok folks, family drama time, grab the popcorn and sit a spell. we are now on our way back home several days early after basically being kicked out of my parents house. my dad is a mean SOB but he'd seemed to have mellowed the past few years, which is why we've visited there a couple of times. well, his orneriness came back and suddenly it was just like when i was growing up, i was a terrible person, my children misbehave (especially my 3 yr old...umm...he's 3! they throw tantrums!) he did have one point and we agreed with him - we had borrowed some money from them to finish up the adoption and hadn't paid it back yet, but i had said, if we come, that's going to eat up that money we could pay you back with, so we'll keep making payments when we get back but it'sgoing to take longer that way... they said fine, no problem... well it was a problem. not that they need the money, dont't get me wrong, it's about the "principal" of it. we agreed that we were wrong to not pay it back and shouldn't have come and spent the money on gas, we should have paid them back instead (why not say that before we leave??).. but he wouldn't let it go. even when you agree with the man, he just keeps yelling at you and saying the same thing over and over again. and oh yea, all in front of my kids... so we left. no baptism, no weekend stuff. we spent the night at a hotel and i went out with my high school friends last night as planned... we gave thema chance to come to mcdonalds and say goodbye to the boys... they weren't interested. ok then we're gone.
and try as i might, when we stopped at the store to get some stuff for the trip, i got bananas, apples, grapes, water... and double stuff oreos. this is the first time i've needed "comfort food" in months, but man, i just want to mow into those cookiesand feel better.
my stomach hurt all night from the stress and i couldn't eat dinner or breakfast, just a few bites...
my dad always says, fish and guests stink after 3 days... didn't know that applied to his grandchildren (which, by the way, he'll never see again, although my mom is welcome anytime, we're not making this trip again). we've spent every vacation dollar every 2 years to visit them, never gone anywhere fun... made sure they saw the grandkids as much as possible... and for what? to get punk'd out in front of my kids? yell at me all you want but do it away from the children.
oh and my wonderful kids? got really mad at grandpa for making me cry. "Grandpa's naughty, he made mommy cry. I don't like him." my kids were going to stand up to him, made me so proud, i had to keep them from approaching him or he would have backhanded one of 'em... which means both wayne and i would be in jail for murder if he'd laid a hand on any of my children....0 -
BEE- No excuses! You ARE back on track now and moving in the forward direction. Start NOW and stop beating yourself up for enjoying your vacation. Ok.. so you coulda done better.. but we all slip and its time for you do to a YOU turn and get back to business now. Dont let that 1 week of badness turn into 2 weeks or a month, because it will before you know it!! Do what you can today to get yourself back on track. If you havent had your water yet, GO DRINK IT NOW!! No more playing on facebook until you have at least had your water!! :laugh: :laugh:
Wow... adopt4.. so sorry that your trip didnt go as planned! It sucks that the boys had to witness thier grandpa in that frame of mind. Even if he is right about the money situation, I couldnt agree with you more about not discussing it in front of the kids. Ive been in that situation before, which is why I will NEVER, EVER again ask ANYONE (especially our parents) to borrow any money for anything, even if I desperately need it. Its just not worth it to me in the end. We had to borrow some money from my FIL once to cover some unexpected legal expenses and told him we would be able to pay him back when things were settled. It took 5 years before a settlement agreement was reached and we heard about it weekly about how much money we owed him, among other things. Because the legal expenses were MINE, it made matters worst. I was a bad daughter in law because I was bringing his son the financial burden.... ect, ect. Well, the day I got my settlement... we invited them to dinner and I handed him a cashiers check for the money we borrowed PLUS some. I told him "Im so sorry it took us so long to pay you back..it was never our intention NOT to repay you and we really do appreciate that you gave us the loan when we really needed it"....That was the day he shut up. Since then, he has done a complete turn about....even hugs me when we leave now and thinks Im great. I honestly think he thought he would never get paid back, even tho we told him it would be a while before we could do it. He just didnt know me well enough to know that when I give my word, I keep it.
I worked yesterday from 1pm-11:30pm. Im beat and tired and get to work from 2-9 today. I crawled up the stairs to bed yesterday because I was so exhausted. The store was remodeled and yesterday and today they are doing thier "grand re-opening" which means a couple of VERY busy days. I'll be glad when all the festivities are done with and I can relax again.. LOL0 -
DEBBIE BALLEW MICKEL - YOU GET YOURSELF BACK ON TRACK - YOU CAN DO THIS. Do not undo what you have already done. Today is today and now is right now. Move your bottom and those legs and drink that water, No more waiting til tomorrow again - get started now . Weigh in is Friday and we will make this weigh in won't we Debbie!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Give me your number so I can make sure there is no dessert in your fingers tonight - that you are just exercising them on the keyboard. Get with it ok.0

♥adopt4, I am so sorry about your dad. He is the one losing in this whole situation. It is unfortunate that he would let money get in the way of getting to know his precious grandchildren. At least you all plan to pay it back. Besides as a parent, I do not think we should loan money to our children unless we are okay with not getting it back. Money is not worth this. as hard as it seems right now, keep a forgiving attitude for him. That does not mean you have to spend your vacation with a gruppy old man it just means you have forgivness in your heart towards him and love him. Someday he will be gone and your conscience will be clear. Hopefully, he will realize his error and apologize to you and your family before it is too late.
♦bee, I feel your pain, but we are worth it. Let's not forget how far we have come and get back to it.
♣li4g, I hope work goes well for you0 -
CJ ~ What a great new pic - what precious babies you have!
Crazyb~ my thoughts on "overdoing it" at times: There will always be variances in our lives and in our diets. What is available to us on a daily basis will be different from place to place. This is life - real life - we don't live in a bubble and we are not robots. I refuse to deprive myself of anything I love - I just choose to make room for the calories if there is something I want to eat that would take me out of my usual calorie range. If I wanna eat more calories, I gotta move more. And if I don't plan for those extra cals and eat them anyway, no big deal, I just have to move more the next day and work them off. This is life and we are going to go over occassionally - the important thing is to remember that we are working to be healthy - we are not working to deprive ourselves or to punish ourselves. So, listen to Pawprint, Adopt4 and LI4G - it's a new minute - turn it around and make it work for you:)
Pawprint - Good motivating girl! I like it!!
Adopt4, jeezum peetes, what a crappy way to end a vacation. I HATE family drama - it hurts no matter who is in the right - and in this case all I can think is "Seriously????" You are a grown woman with a family and a life and your father YELLS at you???? You are an adult and imho, yelling at an adult NEVER produces a good result. I am so sorry that you had to experience that and especially that your kids had to be party to it. That SUCKS. I just wanna come give you a big hug and encourage you to let it go and to focus on your own family. I'm sorry your dad was an *kitten* and a bully. Hugs to you, honey. Next year, invite your mom to your house and take the kids to an amusement park!
Indianagranny ~ How are you?? Your post to crazybee makes me think of of chihuahua, lol. Grrrrrrrrr, go get 'em girl!
Mamma2four ~ I agree with you. My children are both now in their early 20's. I have told them I will never loan them money. I have also told them that if they ever NEED (not just want) money they should absolutely ask us and we will help them any way we can.
This board is such a great way to purge, confess, repent, seek help and support. I'm so glad you are all here....
later gaters

Thanks Ladys that is what I needed. I was just diappointed in myself. I wanted help and you gave it. If I wanted to give up I would have hidden from here. I just needed people to tell me to get with the program. I still didn't post today. I ate a slice of pumpkin bread, 2 cups of coffee and then went to Red Robin for dinner and had a mushroom burger and some fries. Probably still over on calories but I didn't touch the junk food I still have from the cabin trip. I've had 3 10 oz glasses of water since I got home tonight, so I got in some water. I spent most of my morning cleaning my house and playing on farmtown then this afternoon I went to the casino with my best friend. I got home at 11pm and been working my farms since. It's now almost 2am and I am going to go to bed and pray I don't wet the bed tonight from having 3 glasses of water in 2 hours LOL.
Granny I just loved the way you called me by my full name!!! I laughed my *kitten* off. I could literally hear you say it. Lets get the whole thing....Debra Elizabeth Ballew Mickel!! I love it.
Thanks again all. Tomorrow is a new day and I will try to log again. Love to you all and hugs too.0 -
hey I'm back from vacation!
I had a really great time and am several shades browner. i'll weigh in this week and see how I did being off the chart for a week.0 -
Adopt4 - sorry to hear about your vacation. I agree with momma2four - keep a forgiving spirit in your heart. hope you and your family made it back home safely.
Lulu - glad the job is going good. I was trying to give Debbie a good chewing so she would not gain what she has already lost. But I was trying to be cute.
Debbie - I need the same chewing so if you knew my middle name ou could give it right back.
Manda1111 - welcome back - hope vacation was a blast
I did exercise this morning and am keeping track of everything that goes in my mouth. May not all be healthy but getting logged. working on water. to do this all week is my goal.
Happy Sunday all - I gotta take a nap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -
Morning ladies!
Good for you deb!! Glad to hear you are getting back on track!
I worked from 2-9 yesterday, today and tomorrow Im from 12-9. I twisted wrong and my hip was hurting yesterday for the last hour of my shift but It feels fine this morning. I woke up at 6am with a headach and had trouble getting back to sleep (damn allergies!) but eventually did. Now Im up and getting ready for a long day again. I cant wait till Tuesday when Im off.. LOL
I need some prayers for my kitty Charlie. He went missing for a day and hubby found him yesterday morning under his car and brought him in the house. He didnt look too good but drank some water and had some food before he disappeared upstairs to find a quiet place to sleep. When I got home from work last night, he was still in the same spot and this morning when I got up he was still there and didnt want to move. I tried to get him to drink some water but he wanted no part of it and when I moved him, he started howling so hubby just rushed him out the door to the vet. I probably should have taken him last night but he seemed to be ok.
Anyway...off to put in my full 9 hour day of exercise.. LOL Im very curious to see what the scale says this friday now that all the water weight is gone from auntie.0 -
Hey all.
Adopt4-I'm sorry that you have to deal with that. I know what it's like to have family act in a non-family way. My mother is the same....I'm seeing her next weekend for the first time since my boyfriend and I basically up and moved out of her house because of the drama. Then the hate mail started. It's complicated. It sucks. But, it's your dads loss at not seeing the kids. Just move on and don't let it get to you. I know that's easier said than done. But don't let it affect all the hard work that you have accomplished so far. Don't turn to food. He'll be wining if you let him get to you.
LosingIt4good-I hope Charlie is okay. Hopefully he didn't get hit by a car or anything. I hope everything is okay with him and it's nothing serious. I hope that your hip is alright too.
indianagranny-Keep up with the logging. That's so important.
Manda1111-Welcome back. I hope that your vacation was good and fun.
lulubar-I agree with you. This board is awesome and so are all the people. This group is awesome when it comes to motivation and support.
CrazybeeRX-Sounds like your getting back on track.... STAY ON IT lol.
Well I don't have much time as I need to get ready for work. That's my main form of exercise right now lol. I burn a good 900-1000 calories each shift. I told Jason today that I can feel my hip bones again lol. They're boney. I haven't felt that much bone in a while there lol. But that's about it for me.

Hi everyone....
Just checking in ..
I am only going to be working 3 days a week.. Yeah.. I can focus on myself now.. I'm super excited...
Adopt4 sorry your Dad is a butt...
How is Charlie LI4G??0 -
Blah.. I kinda went over on my calories today. I woke up late, so I had a tiny little lunch before I went into work. I had the craving for skyline so I looked it up and knew how many calories I throwing away and I went with one cheese coney. A few months ago, I would have had like three. Plus the chili cheese fries... all in one meal. So I think that I did ok. Well, on the way home from work I wanted a big boy sandwich lol. Now I did go over my normal goal, but when I add my exercise in, I have some "earned" calories still. I only went over my normal goal of maybe 300? My normal goal is 1340 by the way. I have come to the conclusion that I refuse to let myself no long be able to enjoy good food. I can do it here and there. I have the feeling that if I don't, I'm going to take a tumble and it's going to be bad. So by letting myself have certain "junk" foods here and there I'm not depriving my body of food I really like lol. I got a candy bar today. I can't remember the last time that I had one. But anyways that's my vent lol.0

Hey gang, been catching up on posts - WOW what is that commercial - Life is drama? Looks like everyone is in for their share.
Kelli - sorry, man - that sounds like the trip from hell. If there is a silver lining, its that the kids love you, and you didn't murder your dad. It sounds like thats no small feat. So, eat a couple of those nasty oreos and then forget 'em. No point in letting him control or ruin anything else.
Lisa, you rock! Listen to you with the support and encouragement. And, way to go honest - much better than me - just disappearing until I could get back on track. So, I spent a month basically spinning my wheels. WAY silly of me.
Debbie - here are my thoughts on being on or off track. We aren't on a diet - we are living life. A diet implies a temporary change in eating habits, but if this is going to stick, we need to make permanent life style changes. Thin, healthy people are thin and healthy cuz they eat, and act like thin and healthy people. Thin and healthy people have moments or days, or what ever, that they make a choice to eat less than healthy. The difference between them and us, is they don't have this all or nothing way of thinking about what they eat - so they generally eat healthy and are healthy. We who are trying to lose weight, especially those of us losing a significant amount of weight have to use some additional tools - like counting everything we eat so we are aware of how many calories we consume. We may need more moral support, because we aren't yet strong and confident about our ability to eat healthy - and we may need to re-educate ourselves about what we eat, when, and how much. And the big important question we may need to figure out is WHY do we eat what we eat when we eat it. I never used to think I was an emotional eater. Now, I know I am. I no longer lie to myself and say, "I just like food." I do like food - but that wasn't why I was eating - I was looking for comfort, and found a false sense of comfort in "comfort" food. Today, I am fixing that behavior. I am finding comfort in other things - re-connecting with people that love me and that I love. So, hang in there.
Ok, I've gone on long enough. Love you guys. Take care.0 -
Home from work and hubby made me a wonderful dinner of Steelhead with basil, crush red pepper flakes and garlic with some german pan potatoes. I was seriously surprised!! He did great!! He even bought a bottle of nice white wine to go with it! How do I rate?? :happy: He is so awesome!
My oldest also came by the house and brought me a HUGE boquet of flowers that she picked up at the Saturday market. I just dont know what I did to deserve this! My birthday isnt until next week! LOL
Anyway... work was work. Busy as heck and the 9 1/2 hours flew by in no time. Hubby reminded me today that our medical benefits kicked in yesterday and that I have $1000 a year for chiropractic and massage therapy so I am thrilled!! Definitely will be utilizing that as often as possible! Going to the chiropractor tomorrow to get a workup done in the AM. Havent had x-rays or anything in years and my hip
Charlie is home from the vet. The doctor said he had a fever of 105 and 102 is normal. He wasnt sure what was wrong other than possibly being a little dehydrated. At least is wasnt a UTI infection, he bladder was empty. Anyway.. they hooked him up to the IV and pumped some fluids and antibiotics into him... got him eating and drinking on his own and said we could bring him home. He is now being kept inside (which he HATES!) and is loudly protesting (meow meow meow meow meow meow) the fact that he isnt allowed outdoors. I can handle the meowing as long as he doesnt start howling like he did this morning. He's moving around good again and we are keeping him inside now.0 -
Good morning everyone :flowerforyou:
LI4G - Happy to hear that Charlie is doing ok
Kristi - great to see you I love your post to Debbie... Everyone keeps asking me what kind of diet am I on... and I'm foever telling them that I'm not on a diet and that I am just eating healthy and exercising... they look at me like I'm on drugs or something :laugh: I think my family has finally realized that this isn't a temporary thing and that I mean business :laugh: and that this is a lifestyle change and not just some phase.
This weekend I did great with the eating but took a break from the exercising, the only exercise I did was housework... and I've also been doing great with the water, getting in at least half my body weight in ounces
So I was just wondering if anyone else realizes that we are still on week 25 :laugh:
Well I'm not drinking my water this morning, I'm off to the city soon and I don't think I would be able to make it two hours without going to the washroom :laugh: so will have to get it all in when I get back.
Thats it for now... have a great Monday everyone!!0 -
♦Glad Charlie is doing better!!
♦Bee glad you are back on track, good for you
I made some bad choices this weekend after having a 5 pound weight loss last week. So I am back on track I want to keep myself headed in the right direction.
Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday. :flowerforyou:0 -
Wow...lots has happened since I was here last.
Sorry I haven't been in touch. And I didn't weigh in on last Friday either. Not the right time to weigh in...and that would only defeat me in my progress...so feel it is best not to at that time.
Anyways, because of it...off track again, but again this week...I will fight to get back on track.
I like the approach though that Kristi had...going to keep that in mind. I am starting to take the attitude it isn't that I am doing a diet to lose weight, but more so I am choosing to eat differently and exercise to become healthier...as a 50 year old woman next month I am becoming more and more aware that it is my time in life to enjoy - kids are raised and have kids of their own and approaching retirement within 5 to 7 years. So if I want to enjoy that time I have to take care of myself. So time for me to be happy and healthy without the stress trying to achieve that goal with the wrong attitude or that is just going to make me miserable and give up. Going to take it as it comes and work on it at my pace, what I am comfortable with. If I go up, I go up...remember what goes up must come down (unless you live on the moon - lol)...so I will go down too with proper eating and exercise. If a miss a day or so...so what...it isn't the end of the world....just a bump in the road and we all have them.
LosingIt - Glad to hear Charlie is doing okay.
Everyone else...stay strong...and take care. Well that's it for me...back to my gardening.
Hugs to you all.
Button0 -
Paw-oh that is a great nonscale victory!
L4G- =( poor kitty. Congrats on the new job.
IG-congrats on the movement and the logging.
Manda-welcome back.
CB- it is a new day. Shake it off girlfriend. The past is the past. The importance of the past is to learn from it and move forward.
Lulu-great advice.
A4-gosh. I am sorry for your experience. Money is a funny thing. I was always loaning my parents money. I’ve wiped the slate clean a few times but try to not loan money anymore but give opportunities to work it off. You know I think the reason it hurt so much is it was about your precious little ones. In his head it was the debt but it fulfilled a beautiful dream for you. Praying you can all find the forgiveness. Forgiveness doesn’t mean allowing one to harm you again in the same way. Healthy boundaries are key. Sorry for your experience.
Kristi-so good to see your smiling face
I just got back from a weekend away. Holy moly. I live in the valley. We went to the mountains. I did hill climb cycling. It kicked my butt! It was miles of climbing. Intense.
My goals for August:
*decrease run mileage and really focus on speed
*8 swim sessions
*300+ miles cycling
Need to get moving.0 -
hey ya'll, we're home safe and sound. got in about 1 am this morning, took us longer getting back than to get there, more potty stops... nice thing about the drive home is we were able to talk thru and work thru what had happened and move on from it, so it isn't affecting our life now that we're home.
the one thing we realized is the issue with my dad was not about money. when someone tells you how much you cost your whole life, that it cost $300 to adopt you, that you had braces and glasses and they helped you a bit in college, when that comes into a conversation (using that term loosely) about an $800 loan you've only partially paid back - well, it's not really about money. we also feel that the entire week was strange and have a feeling it had something to do with our children's race... not sure, just a gut feeling. anyway well we need to protect our children from such things and so we will do so, although we know this event is permanently etched in their minds - my six yr old is still saying, "grandpa was naughty, he needs a time-OUT!"
ate crap the whole trip, started with fruit and stuff but ended up eating fast food too. don't care, we just wanted to get home. i never touched the oreos, by the way. so will wait a few days and drink my water, I'm seriously dehydrated, and then weigh in and see the damage.
can't wait to get back to the gym and back to my "real life".
hubby stll has 2 more weeks off of work! he may go back a week early to save his vacation days for later but he's staying home this week, so we're trying to think of family things to do. so fun!0 -
glad you made it home safe adopt4, and I think you are right about it being more than money with your dad. So sorry. Poor guy.0
-
so i got curious and weighed myself after a large breakfast, 2 cans of pop, knowing i'd eaten junk for two days and have serious retained water weight, plus TOM... and was up 3 pounds. Which i think means, i'm up really at most a pound if that! i'm usually up 2-3 at tom anyway... so i'm pretty psyched to think that i didn't do as bad as i feared.
took a shower, feel human...need to get to the grocery store before my kids starve to death, thought we'd be gone for 3 weeks so we have no fresh stuff in the house... kids think they're being tortured, LOL.
i am so frakin' happy to be home!!! we bonded as a family, hubby and i bonded closer together, hubby and i had lots of talks in the van while the boys slept, we hadn't talked that much in years (about just whatever). boys are obnoxious and naughty today but they've been in a carseat for 48 hours, can't blame 'em too much. drinking my second diet coke of the day, it will be my last pop until tomorrow, and i need to get back on the water wagon. probably won't hit the gym today, have a lot of work to do around the house, laundry, clean the car, groceries, etc. but will definitely be drinking my water and getting some good fresh fruits and veggies at the store. can't wait to eat fresh veggies after all that junk.0 -
Just a quick hi everyone. Running late - exercised instead of posting. will try to check in tomorrow. need to get earlier start to get everything done.
glad Charlie is better.
Hi Kristi
Glad u are home safely Adopt4
Debbie - did you drink your water today and log and exercise??????
gotta roll girls
GOOD NIGHT ALL0 -
Such a sad night. A good friend passed away over the weekend and her wake was tonight. She raised her kids as a single mom (their dad was killed in a motorcycle accident when they were very young) and her kids are now 18 and 23. My friend had been very ill for a couple of months -diabetes- and died late Saturday night. She had no family other than her children and now they have no mother. Absolutely breaks my heart. They will, of course, be folded into our extended family - but just so sad. And a grand reminder of just how fragile life is.
Kristi - loooooove seeing you here. I miss you - don't stay away, okay?
Prayerfulmom- missed you too. You always have such good words:)
Indianagranny - you are so good to get in your exercise- I need your energy woman!
My left forearm is covered in poison ivy rash and blisters. Driving me INSANE with itching!
night all - off to bed:yawn: Talk to you tomorrow.0 -
Sorry to hear about your friend Lulu. That's very sad.
I hope everyone is getting in their water. Let's remember how important the water is guys. Keep drinking it. It really sucks when we have family problems. I've been going through them for the past few months also. It's hard on us. But we do what we can and we have to move on. We can't make our families understand what they don't want to... there is always something that gets in the way. My mother didn't give me up for adoption, she just left me in the hospital after I born. She gave my older sister up for adoption who we've never met. She has my two younger sisters and they are her life. My youngest sister is 14 and she treats her like she's 12. But anyways....
I'm doing pretty good on calories. Only went over once this week so far. I went shopping today and got my lean cuisines and low calorie stuff. I'm doing pretty good shopping. My butt is getting smaller and flatter. I'm starting to see small changes. But it's time for bed... I'm so tired. Haven't been sleeping well lately.0 -
hey,
so in other news I got my book back from the editor i sent it to. I have lots of small corrections to make but over all he really liked it and didn't have a lot of comments about the storylint itself so that was really encouraging. I'm going to see my sister next week and then I go back to work. I week of meetings and then the children come. I think that I will have my book ready to be sent off to the pubishing houses by the end of Sept! That is so exciting, this is the culmination of over three years of work. In the mean time I have 18 chps done on the sequal so I'll be working on that while I wait on replies.
that's all for now0 -
Good reminders of how precious life is and how we ought to care for these earthly vessels we are in.
Have we hydrated?
Have we nourished our bodies with wholesome nonengineered foods?
Have we moved our bodies?
I've managed a swim and a bike ride this morning. Need to hydrate and nourish.0
