Good Morning my friends, We are getting closer to the weekend! I hope each and everyone of you have a great day and a better tomorrow!

LL, I am through menopause and never took any HRT so I am no help at all but since you have stopped, you should add one back at a time until you have the hot flashes. That way you know the one that is the trouble maker. Good Luck!

Dear MMH's, I so miss each and every one of you. My life has been turbulent recently, but I am reading daily. Janet, so glad the shower went well and I also got chills reading the Camelot post. No vitatops as of yet but they are on the list. Cbm-I'm with Snoozie, don't forget to breathe. language- I have no patience and…

I have the same issue. I think I am afraid to succeed!

Oh TA, I am so glad you had a great day. A great teacher is one of those things that none of us can afford to do without. I know that I had one or two that really stood out and made a difference. I know that you are doing the same for your students whether you know it or not. ~t

You did great! Sometimes, we just have to indulge, then get off our butts and go after it. Congrats, again on a job well done.

My Dane loved bourbon&Coke, Martini's and whole chicken's off the counter! He's gone now but we sure have laughed about catching him drinking from DH's mug.

Janet, YOU ROCK and a big thank you for all of the kinds thoughts.

TGIF my Mad friends! This weekend is going to be full of yard work. After having the trees cut down and stumps ground it has left us with a bit of a mess. Still waiting on insurance to give us reimbursement for the cost of cutting the trees. After a week of Cassie cooking, we have finally gotten portion sizes in check and…

I hope everyone had a great day today, I did.... See you in the morning! ~t

Thank Fishbarn I love it! Thought for today. Being happy doesn’t mean everything is perfect. It just means you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections.

HSH- I gave up my master suite to the daughter and SIL. It wasn't an easy choice for me but in the long run I think it will work for the best. Now my bathroom is the size of a broom closet (which may be why I am having "issues":blushing: ). Having to care for aging parents and planning showers and a wedding are really…

.07 of a pound gain this week. I am hopeful that is is just irregularity rather than a gain. Most would say I am just full of s@@t especially my friends and family. On Sunday when I hopped on the scale for a fact check I was at 238, so hopefully next week will be less. I enter my weight regardless of the gain or loss. I…

I am so proud to call you ladies my friends. We all face challenges in our daily lives. It's how we confront those challenges that make us who we are. I am the first one to say I haven't always done the best in a confrontation with my weight. But with all of you I have been able to share myself in a way that I haven't…

There is one called Yoga for the inflexible (I think that is the name) my friend loves it.

Biggest accomplishment to date: I am still here! I haven't given up or dove head first into the ice cream vat. I am making this about me one day at a time. Some days are better than others but it is ALL about me at this point. I have a meetings but did want to drop in after being MIA all weekend. xoxoxoxo ~t

Mine is my 40lb lost shot....

Morning all, Kimberly- new school, new house and new town? Good lord and good luck! Cathy Hi and welcome-I chose not to take HRT's but I am sure there is some one here that can help we have and amazing group of ladies. Carol- One word....Lovely Bis- Health and endurance is better than the scale moving and good luck again…

Good Morning Ladies, Don't you love a week that starts with Tuesday! I am so very happy for all of the progress posted here. Tammy, Janet and Snoozie...IPOU Melissa- I will be thinking of you and your daughter and hope that the Dr. visits go well. THIS- At times being the adoring, patient and supportive mother is really…

Good evening all, I am up for a challenge. So glad that all of you are here to do it with me. Tomorrow is my day to get back on track. I have been off about 2-3 weeks and am ready to hit this thing head on. HSH and TA I am so happy for both of you, nothing like making a goal and hitting it. HSH even with the stress and…

OMG Snoozie, I have done that so many times it's not funny. I make it all the way downstairs and open the basement door, feel the sunshine on my skin and think WTH...lmao thank you so much for sharing!

Hi D, we would love to have you join us. T2 and Snoozie as well as the rest of us can relate as well as make you laugh your butt off...well some of them can. Me not so much. Come hang out with the Hatters and see where the fun is.

cbmc= Dolphins are a wonderful thing. I love them and even have a tattoo on my shoulder of one. It's the first I ever had and it has a lot of meaning. I also have one on my right foot that is the body of a lady bug (good luck) and the wings of a butterfly. My daughter has the same one except in a different color. The lady…

Good Morning Ladies, I am getting on here before my day really starts. I thank each of you for your kind words and thoughts. I am trying really hard to get all of this messy house organized this weekend so I can get back on track. I even went to the grocery store yesterday and restocked! That was a necessary thing :)…

While I haven't been on here much I have kept all of the Mad Hatter's in my thoughts and prayers. This has been a difficult week for me personally. I haven't been affected by Isaac and feel badly for those that have. I have been affected by the move in by daughter and her husband and am ashamed to say that I let it affect…

Hello my friends, I have been busy helping the daughter move in so I haven't been around much. Just wanted to say HI and IPOU. There have been some losses and some habits changing around here and I am glad to be part of the group. Thanks for all of the kind words and encouragement! ~t

Chocolate covered espresso beans are my go to afternoon snack. 5 of them have 34 calories and I love the chocolate/coffee combo.

Good Morning EVERYONE! T2-Prayers for Betty. I too have a friend going through treatment now. Try not to work too hard with business booming, although I guess it is a good thing. Take time for yourself.:love: Leslye- Wishing you a speedy recovery and so glad you are here with us.:flowerforyou: HSH- Wishing you well and…

I don't know Carol, I have chocolate covered espresso beans pretty much every day. 5 of them only have 34 calories and it is a good way to curb the craving and get a little boost! Been a little busy today. I hope each of you has/have a great day. Painting that 14ft ceiling tonight and moving more furniture. I will be glad…

HSH- Your declaration is awesome. I have used food so often as a way of escaping too many things to list. It is only recently that I determined that eating was only hurting not helping me. We are here if you need to talk or vent about anything. I can understand about your MIL and hope all goes as it needs to. ~t
