  • Oh my word! I've been trying to catch up and every time I'm near finishing I have to stop. That's when I log on again the next day and there's three or four more pages! Let's face it. I'm slow! LOL! It so good to read everyone's posts. I enjoy it. My friend's funeral was today. The services were beautiful and so was she. I…
  • Hi everyone! Welcome to all those who are new. Congratulations to all who are staying true to their diets and exercises. I usually try to respond to as many of you individually as I can, but I hope you will understand that I'm just not feeling it tonight. Thanks to everyone for the Happy Anniversary wishes. DH and I went…

  • All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them. - Walt Disney (My prayer for you today is that each of us has the courage to pursue our dreams!) DeeDee2211: Beautiful picture! Thanks for sharing! Beth: I’m so sorry about that you son has migraines again and that the state is so brilliant! Don’t you…
  • Dogbydog123: Congratulations on the weight loss. Being half way to your goal is awesome! Sorry about the increase in Cymbalta. I hope that it eases your pain. Sylvia: Yippee! You’re going home!

  • Dkuffer: Congratulations on your weight loss and making healthy habits. Marywetterlund: I’m so happy to hear about the seminar you & DH are attending. Good for you! Janet: My diabetes NP told me not to eat more than two fruits a day because of my diabetes. Many of them contain a lot of carbs. I do go over that amount now…
  • Hi everyone! I tried a couple of times to post, but I managed to lose it. I do put it on Word and copy it over, but I tried to put the ticker and lost everything. I finally gave up and went to bed. So, I'm trying again tonight. My grandchildren were rough housing and hit my arm, tossed my mouse around, and I lost it again.…
  • Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful day wherever you are! I heard all the stories about the heavy snow, but somehow there are some things that it's hard to imagine. I kept trying to call this company for the last two days who said they were open 24/7, but when I would call they didn't have anyone to answer…
  • Happy February everyone! I haven't posted in a while and I have been so far behind...seriously I was on page 30 and there were 54 pages on last month, plus two this month! Lots of reading, but I finally caught up. Barbie: Thanks, as always, for posting the new thread! Rori: Thanks for arranging our luncheon in Colorado! I…
  • Good morning everyone! I've been trying to play "catch up" but I haven't quite managed yet. I still have multiple pages to read. What an active group we are! It's so nice to see so many new members. Welcome to all. I just wanted to let everyone know that I'm a grandmother again! This is #7. Mhairi Anne was born on…
  • Welcome all newcomers and returnees. So happy to have all of you. I just found a quote that I really like. I think it's going to have to be my mantra for a while. “If you want something different, DO something different. Without change progress is impossible.” - Steve Maraboli Hugs and prayers for all who are having issues…
  • Happy Sunday everyone! I have to say that I am not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, but I'm very happy that I have a job, am well, and able to do so. I have thoroughly enjoyed my long holiday. Wow! Four days off for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year. I have loved it! LOL! DH and I stayed up until almost…
  • Opcoffee – Welcome! I’m so sorry for all that you have been through. Despite the residual effects, you have made a remarkable recovery. I’m sure that it took a lot of very hard work. I admire your strength and the fact that you are so determined to succeed with your weight loss goal. You can do it and we are here to…
  • I just found this link about what to say when people are "pushing" you to eat food and you're on a diet. http://blog.myfitnesspal.com/what-to-say-when-people-push-food-on-you/
  • Tere - My gosh! I'm so sorry about you being attacked. Isn't there some kind of a leash law?
  • Viv – Big long hugs for you! You have been through so much! Cry if you need to! Linda – Thanks for mentioning the steroids. I’d totally forgotten that in the past few months, I’ve had five steroid injections. They’re not as long acting as taking it orally, but they do affect me regarding hunger and weight loss and you are…
  • Welcome to all those who are new and welcome back to those who have been away! I hope all of you find this site as supportive as I do. To all of you (and there seems to be more every day) who are having plumbing problems, you have my deepest sympathy! Been there, done that...hope it never happens again! Good luck. I hope…
  • Diana – Congrats on the weight loss success! Not easy to do during the holidays! Patceoh – I love the gift that one of your daughters gave to you. I remember when mine used to create coupons that were good for jobs around the house. I loved those days. Every year the kids ask what I want for Christmas or birthday or…
  • Happy New Year everyone! A brand new day and a brand new year. Thank you all for the support you have given me over the last few months. I'm starting this New Year 25 lbs lighter than I was on October 6, 2014. I've struggled having lost and then gained and lost again during that short time. I'm making healthier habits and…
  • Barbie - I am amazed at how disciplined you and Jake are. I'm so glad that it works well for you both! Meg - You go girl! Burn those calories dancing the night away and have a great time! I agree that logging in here helps tremendously!
  • Peachstategel – Good luck to your son and to you. So sorry about the debit card! That’s a real bummer! Hope you get your money back! With a credit card it’s so much easier to have them credit your account! I wish it was that easy with the debit card.
  • Hi everyone! I thought I was doing a good job of keeping up and responding, but alas, I'm really far behind again. This morning my daughter brought me to have the steroids injected in my neck. Everything went well. I decided to take the day off and use the sedation since it was the first time I've had it done. It wasn't…
  • Michele - I like the idea of an evergreen tree! Thanks! Brenda - So sorry for you loss!
  • When I finished typing, I felt this buzz buzz on my arm. Scared the heck out of me. It was the FitBit. I told my DH that I must have done something and it was notifying me. He said, "Yeah like you won the president's fitness award!" LOL! I'm married to a comedian! :smiley:
  • Heather, my DSIL’s mother is Scottish. In fact, although my DSIL is a US Citizen, but he was born in Scotland and spent the majority of his youth there. His mother is from the Gordon clan. He loves his heritage so much that when he and my DD#1 got married, he wore a kilt representing his mother’s lineage. It was a…
  • Wow! I'm finally finished catching up with all the posts! It has been a really busy time here, like all of you, for the Christmas holidays. I was so excited because I started mfp on October 6th and I had lost 25 lbs on December 14th. I totally blew my diet for several days, especially around Christmas eating ham and lots…
  • Hi everyone! I hope that you are all having a wonderful week. I've been really busy at work and home. I'm trying to clean and get my house ready for this weekend. My DS and DDIL were supposed to come and celebrate Christmas with us, but this week my DS learned that he has to attend a class this year and the last one is…
  • Took me a while to catch up on everyone, but I finally finished! So happy to see that we have so many new people. Welcome and congratulations on making the decision to join mfp. We are happy you are here and look forward to knowing you! Heather – Thanks for the great advise. My heart and prayers go out to all those on the…
  • Hi everyone! Welcome to all the newcomers. It's good to have you here. I love reading everyone's entries and I find it so amazing to read about different traditions all over the world. I just love it! Well ladies, I think tonight that Benadryl will be my friend! I went to bed last night fairly early, but couldn't sleep and…
