:'( :'( It is with a heavy heart that I share some news of a fellow member of ours. She is staying away due to a loss in her family. She has asked me to share this information with all of you. Rather that try and put this in my own words, I am just going to use her words and place our conversation below. I'm sure, if you…

@Newcomers - welcome to each one of you. I've read your individual stories. Each of you is unique. Let me tell each one of you that the first days are as you have just said, the first days are the hardest, and you will stumble. You will snack at night. You will despise yourself in the morning. You'll think "Oh No! I can't…

@Laurie - what a good solution for your dad and its better for both your mom and you. Really, when would you have found time to help your mom with your meetings after school, or time for your work-outs. That fellow who has been helping your mom sounds great. Every family deserves that kind of help for these complicated…

@GOINST - I feel so bad for you and your DH - I know personally the affects anxiety has on health problems - it makes your breathing and BP just soar and multiplies all issues - so sorry you are bearing all the brunt of this.

I just watched a rock climber win a million dollars on the last obstacle of American Ninja Warrior. That show has been on for 7 years and no one has ever finished the course...so, this was an amazing feat of athleticism. @Laurie - keep it up! We should ALL be following your lead! When ever I've watched this show, I cannot…

@Niki - good goal planning for the week. The room planning device you found sounds very helpful. I do hate moving furniture and having regrets! Oh, your wasp attack sounds dreadful. Thank goodness you weren't allergic. I can't even imagine how you were swollen - I've never seen a person get attacked like that. Yeah, maybe…

@Kah - so you chose Bosses Day to have your surgery -you clever vixen! Maybe start checking Craig's List for a soft little footstool (I;ve also seen cheapies at Target that look nice plus easy to shove around) that will fit under your desk at work or depending where at work you need to prop up your foot. I was in a cast at…

Just one more obnoxious health problem to add to the list... :'( @Kah - Kelley - thats a great snapshot and they are really treating you with an big honor! Your book sounds intriging. @Niki - I like you for…

@Newcomers - @Mary @Jimmy @Badwolf, @sistermary - So glad to see you all here.. the point of this is to drop in as often as you can to share your doings as far as exercise and eating. Here the goal is simply ELMO: Eat Less, Move More. , or as Grandma Kaye puts it, Onward and Downward. One of these days, you'll find your…

Mucho sympathies! @Kah - yep thanks for straightening me out on the ZPak - glad you're better - tell us when you're going to have the ankle surgery. I agree I prefer to have…

@Tracy and also @Laurie - here's some people that might help you both out - there's an org. that I just read about - it actually moved me to tears to read about all the kind and good deeds that have been done thru this org. Its website is: 2hands.org and on there, state by state, I believe, people can put up a post of…

Hopefully these pictures will come thru - this is where we stayed in Estes Park, the city of Estes Park, Co. which is the entrance to Estes Park, the big Park that is next to Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park. Its confusing. The city of Estes Park is quite small, but very beautiful, surrounded by mountains with the Big Thompson…

@BrittPohler - welcome. You've got a great plan in mind with your idea to break up your weight loss goal into 20 pound segments. You'll be able to see your weight loss progress on a graph page the MFP develops for you over the weeks and months as you lose it. Its quite interesting to watch those graphs!. @Laurie - Its sure…

Hi Y'all! First, to @Kaye - my sympathies on the passing of your father. That is a great loss to a daughter.... and I also am praying for your DH. I hope a good resolution comes about.

A Buddhist "Stupa" or temple without a door. You can feel the prayers in the air. I felt more power here than the so-called energy vortexes in their famous rock formations. I believe more and more in the general power of peoples prayers......just me....... 2 shots of herons perching in a tree way far away from our patio -…

Me and my leetle friend, Terri, the famous Oak Creek, the part of Oak Creek we had to drive across daily to get to and from our cabin. We waded in it but slippery rocks made it treacherous. Terri slipped and hit her head thus we ended up going to ER in Flagstaff for a CT scan - I was worried she might have a concussion -…
