    I am out :( Was doing so good too. My dad had a major medical emergency and I had to race him to the hospital (he had CHF-congestive heart failure) and fluid in lungs, possibly pneumonia. He ended up having a blocked artery and they figure with the CHF it caused fluid to build in his lung (pneumonia). He had a cathorization done and that is when they found the blockage. Corrected it and put a stint in. I ran home a few times, but my internet was out and I fought the past 3 days with AT&T who didn't seem to want to send someone out to fix the problem. Finally got my internet back just a few minutes ago.

    Due to my dad being in the hospital and being there or at his house mainly (he doesn't have internet) I had no way to get online. So I will cheer you all on and wait till November to try this challenge again. I did eat the best I could, but had no way to record it

    DID you read this from the rules?
    5. ~*~*~CHECK IN.~*~*~

    Post in the "Sign-in" threads of this forum at least once every three days (preferably every day) to let me know that you're still doing the challenge and that you haven't slipped up. If you haven't posted in four days, and you haven't contacted me to explain why, I will remove you from the group.

    I'm so sorry to hear about your dad and so glad that you were there for him. Some things are more important than our logins! (though doing the best you can with a pencil and paper still counts, I'd think.) and dads are big on that list.

    I hope your dad's recovery is swift.
