  • So happy for you! You have accomplished much and will be the inspiration for many. Thanks for sharing your story.
  • hello ladies! a lot of water has gone under the bridge since I last posted here. My oldest grandson graduated high school; my mom celebrated 82 years and I have added a second part-time job to my day. I cut out drinking caffeine so most of my drinking is tap water as I gave up on bottled water too - due to all the stories…
  • Picked up my new pedometer today; so excited to have another one. It really does help inspire me to take more steps. :bigsmile:
  • It's official! I just ordered a new Omron pedometer - it will be here May 7th; let the stepping begin :smile: Hello Sue and Carol; good to see so many eager to embrace May :happy: Plano, Teral :flowerforyou:

  • Happy ♫ Birthday ♫ to ♫ you ♫ Jane ♪ catch up later; I am really tired too night ~ Plano Teral :flowerforyou:
  • Saturday just after noon - I have done my part today; at least in the recycling realm. Our city hosts a recycle event in the Spring and Fall. Hubby & I spent late evening yesterday gathering up all the hazardous waste items we no longer needed and placed them out by the curb for pickup. We put our documents for shredding…
  • <<< check out the new granddaughter I spent the last days of March enjoying! Time in Denver was great but still trying to get back into my schedule here at home and on MFP. Catch up more later; today's a no-stress day so going to go find something fun to do. Congratulations! to all the ladies that met their March goals.…
  • Now that we have daylight savings time I am wondering where does the day go! :sad: STEPHANIE, Wheat Belly sounds like the book to read if it can encourage the loss of 15 lbs; girl that is awesome! SYLVIA, so sorry to hear of your son's difficulties; life can be overwhelming and that's when I am glad my hope is in the Lord.…
  • Chiming in here to mark my spot... BARBIE I like the 5 D's now to practice them. :smile: MEG good to hear your brother is doing so much better - praising the Lord! JANE I like a good pity party once and awhile then I can get my head on straight so enjoy yours candy and all! Short stop; ready to just go and relax this day.…
  • :flowerforyou: Welcome Kimberly in Ft. Worth; sure looking forward to our Texas Spring only not the thunderstorms. I'm sure you will enjoy this thread but it's a daily effort to keep up which doesn't happen with me. :flowerforyou: Heather hope that colour works out for you; I am delighted that Spring is on the horizon.…
  • I am chiming in here with all the other women who have expressed concern for you and rightfully so. An abusive person rarely gets the help they need. He has you right where he wants you - under his control. Please don't forget that you have your own value - apart from him. By allowing him to continue to threaten you even…
  • JOYCE, Red Lobster is often my choice of birthday dinners - about the only time I can get my DH to go although the cheddar biscuits are growing on him. Glad to hear you had a good meal and enjoyed the birthday. :smile: RORI, are you close to Westminster (Denver)? I have scheduled lunch with Jane H on Friday and she tells…
  • JOYCE, happy to hear that you enjoyed your birthday wishes as I am sending you another to brighten the day. TIARPANTS congratulations on your new grand baby too! My newest grand baby girl was born the same day. We will be traveling to see her as well in a couple of weeks. THANK YOU All for the grand baby wishes and…
  • I am so glad to see February out of here! It was not one of my better months. I did not meet my goals I set so I will be a little more light on the goals for March. I'd like to reach 190 and keep going! That would be a goal I could celebrate. February did end on a good note. Our newest grandbaby girl was born yesterday…
  • Let's just say that this February is not going to be a good month for me. Goals are not being met. Sad how one additional person in the house can disrupt your everything. Keeping it into perspective. I haven't read all the posts but I do try to keep up whenever possible. Tonight I wanted to share this chart on cravings; if…
  • a vintage valentine - Happy Valentine's Day! :smile:
  • Hello Monday! just came from reading a post of a young mother of two who is celebrating her 1 yr anniversary on MFP and the loss of 124 lbs. It's an inspiring post and what an amazing loss. Makes me want to do better but I know the feeling will pass...:laugh: I've already been online for awhile catching up with my home…
  • you look AMAZING!!! enjoy your new life with your girls :smile: well-done!
  • Barbie, one of my resolutions has been to acquire a taste for yogurt; the other day I finally finished the cup of yogurt for the first time. Next shopping I will buy one more and hope to finish it too. All the best with your yoga venture. Thanks Katla; having not been there in about 7 years I am working hard to keep it…
  • Laurel, I just caught that you lost 12 pounds in January; that is wonderful and so is ONEDERLAND!!! It had been alluding me for several years and I finally saw it again. :bigsmile: Keep up the good work.
  • February 1st and already 3 pages in the making! oh my goodness! I popped over to share my goals so I haven't done much catching up yet but I will. Time is limited for now so forgive me please. Tina, that planking was too funny! I would be the one in the bottom photo for sure! Jane, I am planning to be in Denver on Tuesday…
  • Hi Carol, you have a bright and sun shiny optimism today! I hope you get to enjoy that leisure weekend. Margaret, somehow I think I reduced my tv watching this month not as a goal but in general. Now my husband has it on almost from the time he comes home until he goes to bed. One thing I can do is stay on the computer all…
  • Jane in Colorado, are you any where close to Westminister? I'm going to be up there in March. My step-daughter is giving birth to her first child in March. If weather permits perhaps we can meet-up.
  • Meg the bingo cards really did help me keep focused which is hard to do for those political speeches. I already commented on your profile about the day's adventure with the water break but I still think that you did an awesome job. If I ran up those stairs they'd probably have to carry me out. :bigsmile:
  • katla, I don't think you will find too many interesting parts in the SOTU address. It would be so refreshing if our government would cooperate among parties and actually do some good for the country. Bringing in an individual's story here and another there really doesn't persuade me that things are looking up. And like…
  • oh wow! Kay I missed your earlier post about your fall. The bra dilemma does present its issues. It seems like when I was going through all my surgeries (in 2007, old news) that I just went without one. The image I can conjure up for my hubby helping me is quite comical and more than I could have tolerated at the time.…
  • Meg, sure hope that headachy feeling passes quickly and keep warm my friend.
