Barbie, I am sorry to hear about Jake. Is he in a Seattle hospital? A friend of mine is a heart surgeon and he was handling a complicated case yesterday involving a stent. Jeanne Seattle, WA

Welcome Ming1951! I’m also pretty new to the group—I think I joined 2 weeks ago. It has been a friendly and supportive and responsive group. Like you I am drawn to sweets and carbs. Definitely a goal of mine to give up the treats! PennyGK—welcome! I grew up close to where you live—Maine. The crisp fall weather there is…

Lisa, thanks for the tip about the start of a new month. I haven’t figured out how to bookmark on my phone so I just do a search every time I log in. I’m not the most tech savvy. 🙂

Rebecca, School buses have to register their school so the ferry knows what to expect on the travel date. Then you show up with a letter on school letterhead to get a discounted rate. Taking ferries to games is one of the least favorite parts of my job, but it’s cool that my team qualified and the girls might get a chance…

Thanks Rebecca! We will be coming from Bellevue so planning on leaving around 11:45 to catch the 1pm ferry. That should put us at the school an hour before game time. We get put to the front of the ferry line since we are a school bus.

Rebecca, I just found out yesterday that the first round of the District Championships for high school volleyball is going to be on Whidbey Island! So my team is traveling to Coupeville in a couple weeks to play Orcas Island High School. I don’t get to Whidbey much—do you know if the Mukilteo ferry is the best bet and then…

Good morning everyone! Thanks to those of you who posted welcome messages. I was really hopeful this group would be a true community of people connecting so it’s nice to experience that. Also, really cool there are so many people from WA state! 🙂 Newbie question about navigating this thread…is there a way to respond…

Good morning from Seattle! Hope everyone has a great day! I’m proud of myself for actually tracking all my food yesterday! That’s a first for me. Today will be tough. Lots of meetings and then putting on Senior Night for my athletes where there will be lots of treats and pizza. Staying connected to “my why” helped…

Thank you Barbie! I'm sitting in an office full of candy and trying to not eat any! If I get started, I won't stop! Luckily I have a volleyball game coming up so I will be distracted!

Hi everyone, here in Seattle trying to get started (again) on tracking. My big struggle are sweets even though I know sugar (and wheat) contribute to a lot of my joint and muscle pain. You'd think chronic pain would be a strong motivator to stay on track, but I guess I have a high pain threshold! lol Hope everyone is…

I also have crazy pain in my feet, back and legs. I’m hoping that the combination of choosing better foods and losing weight will help with pain. It’s my biggest motivation for change. I think you are smart yo make small changes! Hope it’s going well!
