Hello everyone, I snuck on here yesterday with my new phone by using the MFP app. Not sure how to use my phone just yet, but I did make a comment from my profile page, but it was a pretty depressing message. Anyway, I just got on today (with my computer) to start the process of getting back in the swing of things here. I…

:flowerforyou: Hello everyone! GAWD!!!! I am so tired of always going on here and NEVER having anything good or positive to say! I am sitting here trying to come up with something positive going on in my life and I cant think of a friggin thing!! Mimi- I am so glad you are still on here. You were the first person that ever…

Jeannie - I am so sorry for your loss. Please take care and know we will be here for you.:flowerforyou: Well, I started off with god intentions on my food logging, but am floundering.Honestly, I don't think its the logging in that I am having problems with, I'm just having a hard time getting back on track. I love hummus…

:flowerforyou: Hello everyone! Michelle I read your post about the on again off again ride to the airport. I got pissed just reading it!::mad: To me it seemed like you were considered a back up ride only....if they couldn't find anyone else. That's just plain rude! If it were me they were jerking around, I wouldn't make…

I wanta see baby duck pictures too! While you're at it, send one of good ol' Winston too! Chiclet:flowerforyou:

Robin- Your dog story was so funny and reminded me of my dog Binky. He ate everything! He had no preference; everything was yummy to him! He ate my husbands favorite pair of boots, peeled and ate an entire basketball (the orange on the outside of the ball) and all that was left was a black rubber ball, (couldnt even tell…

:flowerforyou: Hello Everyone! Well mom is now on hospice. She is still at home. It is called a pallative hospice vs the terminal hospice. They put her on this because she has a lack of will to thrive. She just lies there and barely moves, barely wants to move her arms .....just to eat and that is always a mess to clean up…

Hello Everyone! Haven't really been myself for the last few months and just didn't feel like doing anything. Even getting on the computer was a major project for me. So I haven't been on since January I think? I have received a few messages from some of you, and I have read them, but just couldn't get myself "up" to go…

1960lisa:flowerforyou: How lucky your dog is to be adopted! He is so cute and HUGE! He just looks like he is a fun, fur ball! He actually seems to be smiling at you. Thank goodness for people like you that will adopt an older dog. They usually have their own baggage, but all in all just want to be loved!:heart:…

Sherry:flowerforyou: Coming from me (especially after I post here), you may think who is she to give advice. But when I was working, I had long hours too. I was simply too tired to exercise in the evening. I was too busy playing catch up with everything at home. What I did was exercise on my lunch hour. There wasn't a gym…

:flowerforyou: Hello everyone! Despite the rain today, (which we need badly here in Calif) I feel so good today!:happy: Could it be because I spent half the day yesterday with my guy? Probably. We haven't been able to spend this much time together in a long time. (That's why I am looking forward to him moving in. He will…

Genealace:flowerforyou: MEN! I feel you girl. My first husband wanted children and I couldn't have them either. I always wanted to adopt since I was a little girl, he didn't. So he found a girl that could and left me too. He ended up with 5 children. Then I married my second husband who was fully aware that I couldn't have…

:flowerforyou: Hi Everyone! Went to log on and saw that it passed 500 already AND you guys are on friggin page 7 already with the new one! What a huge group this has become. I saw the birthday list and couldn't believe it! What a group this it.:drinker: Well I am trying to make better choices, but I am still going through…

Genealace- They do have adult daycare here in California, which I would love to take advantage of and just ship mom over there for a day, but it is not free and is not covered by medicare. I wish I could afford it.It would be a blessing for me. Thank you all for the hugs and nice thoughts from you all. You have always been…

Hello everyone,:flowerforyou: I know I haven't been on in months but I have checked in once in a great while to read posts. I even have debated to even write now, but I know I need to start logging my food again as this was a major key for me to lose weight. But honestly, (and I don't want this to turn into a sob story) I…

Hi Everyone!:flowerforyou: I'm glad I am not the only one feeling poopy at this time. Mom has been especially difficult this last month and it doesn't look like it is getting any better.:frown: Yesterday was a horrible day and it started first thing in the morning. I prepared mom's oatmeal, yogurt, milk and fruit for…

Hello everyone!:flowerforyou: I was out all day today getting ready for Thanksgiving at a friends house and then volunteered to help her clean her house as she was swamped with things to do. That started at 7pm and it is now 5 am and I still haven't slept. I walked in at 4 am, then grabbed the puppies and took them for a…

Hello Everyone!:flowerforyou: Just wanted to tell you all to have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends! Take care all. Chiclet:flowerforyou: A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself - Josh Billings

:flowerforyou: Michelle I remember being on the other side. I was like Vince when I was still married to my ex. He loved to exercise, I hated it. He cooked healthy and tried to get me too also. I at that time preferred comfort food or the easiest and quickest thing to prepare. I had no control of anything in my life and it…

:laugh: Mimi, you made me laugh when you said "At least I don't have to worry about being pregnant!" Wish I could say the same thing! On top of dealing with mom and eating candy and cheesecake, I had to go down to the doctor to test if I was pregnant!:noway: (Period was very, very late) Thank goodness I wasn't. I had her…

:flowerforyou: Hi guys! Mimi: You know I went to the doctor the other day, for myself, and told her that I had not been eating as well as I used to and it was driving me crazy!:explode: I was berating myself in front of her and was pretty much discouraged and disgusted with myself. You know what she told me? She said, "I…

Hello everyone! Well for the past 2 months I have maintained. I guess I should be happy about that, with all that I have been eating. Candy bars and the other day the whole lemon cheesecake!:noway: I think with the extra stress my mom has been putting me through the last couple of months I have been taking it out on my…

Hi everyone. Hope all is well with you all and for those in Irene's path, are safe. Natalie- I am so impressed with your recovery. You are moving ahead with great strides and to be walking so soon is amazing to me! I can't believe you are doing everything you say so soon. I thought you were going to be in horrible pain and…

Feeling really poopy:cry: . I can't sleep so thought I would check the posts. Michelle I am very happy all went well with the biopsy. (I told you it would!:wink: ) Now all those negative thoughts can disappear and you can concentrate on the positive. :happy: Last night while doing a transfer from the bed to the commode,…

Cathy, so sorry to hear your brother is having a difficult time. Depression is horrible and it is so hard to get them to seek the help they need. It doesn't help that he is a drinker either. Twice as hard for you. I have you both in my prayers. Michelle, good luck with your ultrasound. I'm sure you'll be just fine though.…

:flowerforyou: It's me again. Well I have read all your posts and have come to the conclusion that I shall bring it up to my neighbor. You know honestly, I don't think he intentionally meant to hurt my feelings, but at the same time, I don't think he realizes how much that comment hurt. I could never say, "After all that I…

Thank you all for your concern, but I did want to clear up one thing as I may have misconstrued things. The neighbor I was talking about was the one that I helped get food delivered to him because he is on a fixed income (SS only). It is not my guyfriend. They are totally different people. The neighbor is a friend only. My…

:flowerforyou: Hi again! Michelle, Jeannie and Kackie:laugh: Was it that obvious that I am finally having sex again......and yes with my guyfriend!:love: lol It is the same guy that I met back in March and we have been seeing each other ever since. Why he sticks with me I'll never know. Between dealing with my mother and…

Hi everyone! Haven't been on in a real long time, but I did finally catch up on the posts. Natalie: I am so glad you had the surgery finally! I have been worrying and thinking about you ever since you mentioned the paid you were going through. It sounds like you are doing much better even with the current pain you are in.…
