My Grandchildren :)

Thanks abbyweaver1 I sure will pray for you, and yes WE will make it. My husband lost his brother this past weekend due to a heart condition. It has been a very stressful time, but God is good and I know everything will be O.K. Thank you so much for your encouragement. :)

I exercise regularly,try to do my best with portion control, but I have problems when snacking. I choose the wrong kind of snacks. I have healthy snacks that I could eat, but lately I haven't made the best choices when snacking. I need to get a better mind set. I sure could use some encouragement. :)

MY HUSBAND :)

You are welcome! You go girl! :)

You are welcome! The fruit that I buy is NO Sugar Added, which is good. :)

First of all, congratulations on your graduation. My husband and I have 4 daughters and our youngest daughter graduated last weekend. I will be happy to help you all that I can. We all can use some motivation and encouragement from time to time. :)

I snack on frozen mixed fruit. One cup is only 70 calories. Yum! :)

You are correct. I always tell everyone to take baby steps. A little exercise at a time. You will soon get excited and want to do more. Exercise is good for the mind and body. You are on the right track. Also, when I am eating healthier, I feel much better. I'm sure you will be fine. Good Luck :)

Good for you! Sounds like you are on the right track. Like I tell everyone, take baby steps. One day at a time. I feel much better when I am eating healthier. You go girl! :)

I haven't heard from you for a while. How are you and your wife doing? I hope all is well. :)

I am glad to hear that you are trying to be healthy again. My husband and I do pretty well, but occasionally indulge in foods that we shouldn't have. I wish you and your wife well. Like I tell everyone, take baby steps, one thing at a time. I have noticed that when I eat healthier, I don't feel as tired, I seem to have…

You could probably do some exercises at home for this problem, but I felt more comfortable with a professional helping me. I was afraid that I might do something wrong and make the problem more severe. Could you ask your doctor if physical therapy might be good for you? I wish you well, I know the pain you are going…

If you are allowed fruit in your diet, I love eating frozen mixed fruit, which consists of pineapples ,strawberries,peaches and mangos. A cup of this delicious fruit is only 70 calories. :)

I have had trouble with sciatic pain in the past. I first went to my doctor for this pain and found that it was sciatic pain. My doctor referred me to a physical therapist. The exercises that were prescribed to me were very helpful. Did your doctor not refer you to a physical therapist?

Our daughter came home from college today, and will be graduating on Sunday. :)

Our daughter came home from college and is graduating this Sunday. Very happy and proud of her. :)

My cholesterol is is a little high and my cardiologist wants me to eat lean cuts of meat, chicken without the skin and lots of fruits and veggies. Also, he told me one egg a week.

I love to enjoy a cup of black coffee and a cup of frozen mixed fruit(no sugar added)! :)

First of all, I tell everyone to take baby steps. One step at a time, one day at a time. Also, with three children, life can be stressful. Is there any way you can possibly have 30 minutes just for you? It doesn't seem like much, but it will be a start. In this 30 minutes you can make a plan that will work for you. If your…

I had an appointment with my cardiologist today, and I had lost 10 pounds. He was very proud of me. : )

You can add me to your friends list, I will help all that I can. You can do this. I could use some support from time to time also. :)

I don't know how much weight you want to lose, but I found that when I started making healthier choices, I felt much better physically. I felt like I had more energy. Start eating healthier and you will feel better and I'm sure the weight will start to come off. You will be glad you did. I know you can do this. :)

Wonderful! You have made a great choice by being healthier. I have found that when I make healthier food choices, I feel much better about myself. :)

I love exercising outdoors. I walk or jog in the rain or snow. I have a treadmill , but only use it if the weather is unsafe. :)

First, I would like to say it is wonderful that you are trying to be a healthier person. You will be amazed at how much better you will feel mentally and physically.Continue to do your best. If you have a bad day, as we all do at times, tell yourself "Tomorrow is another day, and I will do better tomorrow." I know you can…

Continue to teach your son to be a healthy eater, by being a good example for him. Also, notice his eating habits while at home. He may be going through a phase or possibly following a classmates diet routine. If this continues , I would talk to his regular doctor for some advice.

It sounds like you are on the right track. Keep up the good work, be patient and it will happen. A pound a week is great. :)
