  • What dedication--you are an inspiration! I know you will make your goal--look how far you've come! CHEERS! :drinker:
  • Love my FT7--got it at Amazon for a good price! I had a Timex that was HORRIBLE at tracking my stuff (don't I WISH I burned 700 calories while on the elliptical for 40 mins! lol). I think I paid about $80 for my Polar FT7 though, so it shouldn't break the bank.
  • Me three--LOVE peanut butter!
  • Cough syrup, Vicks vapo-rub and BED. . . this has been an incredibly sick-crappy last 6 weeks for my entire family. No matter where you go, EVERYONE is sick! ARGH. . . .:frown:
  • I've got 3: 2 sons--ages 27 and 16 and a girl who's 5. :happy: Every 11 years, whether I need one or not, or so my dr. tells me! lol
  • Lilah is 8 months old . . .she was named by her other grandmother who has since passed away. While in hospice she told my DIL that the baby would be a girl and to name her Delilah, after the song (Hey There Delilah), which neither my son nor DIL liked at all. As she progressed in her pregnancy they did like the name…
  • My children are: Ryan Scott Matthew Dean Amelia Lee Not having anymore kids, but like these names: GIRL: Eden Grace BOY: Mason Alexander Oh--and my grandaughter's name is Lilah Rae--love it!
  • We have nuked them in the microwave and spllit them open like a baked potato, then put a light babybell cheese in the, (like 25-35 calories) to melt. It's a Biggest Loser recipe and super easy. We also make their sweet potato fries, which are to DIE for! Ingredients ½ pound of sweet potatoes, cut into ¼ inch thick sticks 1…
  • My daughter, who is 5 makes up words I think could show up in the dictionary someday--or just save you time/words when speaking. A couple f my favorites: Hand sanitizer is "Hanitizer" Lots of exercise (she did more than her friends on the playground that day): "Extracise" I love her. . . .
  • They do work--I married my husband almost 6 years ago after meeting him online and doing the long-distance relationship for 1.5 years. However, if there's no way for you to meet in person, then I don't see how it can work--sorry. I had been interested in and had great conversations with other men before I met my husband,…
  • Interestingly enough something happened last night as I helped my daughter draw her family for her kindergarten homework. She drew everyone and when I asked who was who, she pointed me out . . .I was the only stick figure with a round belly!! However, she had erased it previously because she said my tummy wasn't THAT big…
  • I use Stevia in my coffee and love it. I tried the Agave syrup and ummm, no. Tasted too funky to me. In any case, I think anything natural is always better than the chemical crap on the market.
  • LOL--nice attitude to have! It's not easy staying positive when things don't go our way, but knowing you can fix it and keep moving in the right direction is the right mindset to be in! Congrats . . . to both of you :laugh:
  • Yum! Always looking for make ahead foods! Do you freeze them?
  • My Sister's Keeper - Jodi Picoult Kiss the Girls - James Patterson and although they are children's books, I love reading them to my kids: EB White: Charlotte's Web and Trumpet of the Swan
  • Oh there are so many but I'll list just a few: 1. We dated long-distance and when he proposed he snuck into town unannounced, showed up at my job, got down on one knee in the reception area and asked me to marry him. 2. Tattooed my name on his back, along with our daughter's name 3. He tells me I am beautiful…
  • Yummm--these sound really good (I am hungry for lunch!). SoVeryBlessed.com looks like it would have some great recipes too! Thanks!
  • Yay! While moving does suck, you get AIR CONDITIONING! That alone is worth it. . . not to mention your son and puppy getting their yard back too. Hope it all goes well! 2 Men & A Truck has great deals if you haven't used them before. . . .
  • Seriously--you look like a COMPLETELY different person--what an inspiration! Congrats!
  • Noooooo . . .no no no no nooooooooooooooo . . .I always order extra pickles . . . well, until now. GACK!!!!!!
  • Ummm--an exciting dentist appt for my daughter and then off to the county fair. Other than that it's the usual running errands stuff. Weekends go by WAY too fast!
  • I am also one who cannot take a pill without taking water first--HATE the taste of chalky, nasty pills! I can write forwards and backwards at the same time And . . .after doing the math: I have 3 children who are all 10 years & 10 months apart (let's just say 11 years)--a son who will be 27 next month, my next son who is…
  • Married first time for 12.5 years. Divorced and met my current (and LAST) husband online 1-1/2 years later. Dated long distance for almost 2 years and we've been happily married for 5 1/2 years. That's probably a longer answer than you were looking for. . . lol. :tongue:
  • Yep--it does happen. When I lost a large amount of weight (many years ago and it's crept back on--that's why I'm here!) I lost a whole size and I am short--only 5'1"
  • You look Fabulous! Congrats on getting healthy!
  • I love this and have shared with others. Then. . . .I tried to read it to my husband and I started choking up--so handed him the laptop so he could finish reading. :heart: :sad: :heart: I'm not a runner (yet) but this makes me want to become one!
  • I'm a BEAVER . . . .um, yay?
  • Yes--Roman was Stabler FOREVER, but I've also watched him in Oz as well . . . .heck, I'd watch him in anything! :love:
