Thanks so much for the feedback. I had trouble with SVT off and on for about 10 years before the afib diagnosis a year ago. My doc tried meds, a cardioversion, catheter ablation and finally the pacemaker. Amazing little piece of technology! My afib was in constant mode and after the ablation it would jump back and forth.…

You and me, Kid!! Glad to know you understand EXACTLY how I feel !! I'll be happy to hold hands with you while we overcome these difficulties. You take care, too - when will you see the new Doc? Keeping you in my thoughts ~ Linda

Welcome, welcome - usually someone has beaten me to this, happy to be the first. Congratulations on both your upcoming birthday and retirement. I hope you'll enjoy both.

Thanks for your time, BethAnn. Wish I could get over worrying - my husband has suggested a lobotomy to cure me of my obsession, lol. In the meantime, I'll keep having these heart -to hearts with myself and counting on you gals to see me thru.

Thanks, Donna. I appreciate the feedback. Had another good start to the day.

See what I mean? Shirlann - she's the best cheerleader! Never fails to send encouragement and cudos. She's great!!

Hi to you and welcome!. Some very nice and very dedicated people in this group. I'm not one of the dedicated ones but those who are are doing their best to keep me going so you've come to the right place. Enjoy!

Congratulations on becoming a non-smoker. Having quit 8 years ago after smoking for nearly 40 years I know what a struggle it is to give up those little demons. I chuckled at your "23 days, 15 hours, etc." - I think you can truly call yourself a non-smoker when you no longer think about how long it's been since your last…

My friend Dylsgram has exactly the same problem with losing weight but hers has to do with being insulin resistant. She's also working with a nutritionist but has just started so her results are not in yet. Happy to hear you're getting things under control - hate that blood pressure, pre-diabetes, heart thing.

Great job, Shirlann! So we're on for the 100 miles in June? Sounds good to me!:smile:

What a wonderful idea!! This country is so amazing, any one of us could have a ball doing the same in our own corners of the world. If you don't mind, I may steal your idea! It just sounds so great! :)

This sounds amazing - give us more details, please!

Yay! I've never heard of a FitBit, will have to look into it. I missed my 100 miles for May but gave it a good try - 85.25 miles.The last couple of days were tough because I had early morning commitments and it was too darn hot to walk in the afternoons. Lousy excuse, I know but I spent enough time walking in the heat when…

A 20 mile challenge? That's great! How are you doing on it? It actually makes more sense to make it a weekly challenge now that I think about it, seems less daunting that way, lol. We had just been doing the monthly thing so that's what I came up with. Next month I'll try the weekly thing. Thanks for the idea.

What brand of protein shakes do you use?

Happy Birthday and I wish you both many, many more!!
