Hi Lovely ladies,:flowerforyou: Almost December on the west coast! It is a miracle we got some RAIN today in Southern California!

Hi Ladies, Keeping this note short so my fingers etc can heal.

Hi Ladies, I am wondering why my home page is not updating the little saying that -"Linda completed her diary for today and she is under her calorie goal."? Seems like this has been happening for the last few days:grumble: ? Went to the gym at 8:30 pm and it is now 1145 pm, so I need to shower and go to bed. Another busy…

Good Sunday , I just did my BMI on the Harris Benedict BMI calculator and it says that I should be eating 1882 calories/day to maintain my weight. My calories on MFP are 1320.

Hi ladies, Just a quick update- the workmans comp adjuster is "delaying" my claim so she has time to investigate. She has 90 days to investigate!!!:mad: :mad: Other Words if she can find that I had this in a prior job, then they won't have to pay. So, I am applying for State Disability. If I am lucky I might see some money…

Good evening friend's,:smile: My DD#2 did really well with her oral surgery. She is taking advil and feeling well. For the work comp issue- I work for a large HMO who is self insured.

Good Monday morning, Just a short note,that is about all I can do. Off to the oral surgeon for DD#2. Has a tooth growing in sideways in the upper jaw. The MD will find the tooth and put on a bracket and chain, so the orthodontist can slowly pull down the tooth into its correct position! Yes- I lost 1.1 lbs, plus the 7lbs…
