Hello, I'm back, Just checking to see if I'm on the correct post, Yes just checked. Well, I guess losing my both parents has took a toll on my health. I have gone way to far. We just lost my Dad this May and it has been devastating. Now I am heading to stage 2 diabetes. I have to check my BS in the morning and before…

I posted my new picture because I want to be able to change it soon. :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

Hello all, I'm back AGAIN, It's been a tough year and took myself away from taking care of me. Now it's time again. Love all my friends that are still here! I'm looking for help on what to eat. I am borderline diabetic now. My Mom who passed in 2010 was taken away from me because of this disease I don't want that happen to…

Hello to All :flowerforyou: I really should proof read my post. lol but I'm just to busy lol. Doing well in the eating department. Have a small quarter size lump on the left side of my left knee which hurts and is preventing me from doing a lot of walking. I finally had my physical and showed my Dr. So now I'm going to…

Hi all, :flowerforyou: Dad is home. His heart is working at 10% but some say that is not bad for someone his age. The Dr. said he is a strong man. Thought it was a heart attack but it was atrial fibrillation. He had about 5 shocks within a week and the one that took him into the hospital was a big one. It he did not have…

My Dad had a heart attack this morning. He is 80, Has a defibrillator, he had 4 attacks in 4 months but one yesterday so the Dr said if he has another to send him to the hospital, sure enough he had one this morning. So spending most of my day with him. Was at the hospital at 3:30 home to regroup. Ate a healthy breakfast…

:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Hello everyone, I've have to say I'm so lucky to have this post. I started here in 2008, and lost 30 pounds. I searched and searched different posts and tried to fit in, but most of the time I felt alone. Then one day all these lovely ladies started popping up for another site and join MFP,…

Barbie :heart: your the best. I can't believe you have kept this post going. I am really trying to get through all of my troubles and getting on with my weight plan. I think more about what I'm not going to eat then thinking of what I am going to eat. That is a good thing, because all I would think about is bad food. Now I…

Hello everyone, I'm an old newbie. I haven't check how long it has been, logging on to this site. But, I'm back and going to keep trying. My eating habits are just terrible. I was out of work for about two years and now I am an Art Instructor at my local Boy's & Girl's Club. My hours are from 2-7:30 so that had drastically…

Feeling under the weather lately but still working out just not as crazy. I wanted my ticker to move past 160 at the end of October, but now I'm shooting for November. I know I will do it then. I still have not had time to respond to everyone. Feel bad I have not really gotten to know you all. But, I love this site. You…

Working real hard at keeping my weight down. Feeling pretty good these days. Have some health problems I'm dealing with but I…

Thank you! Now another questions. My family loves apple crisp do I have to us refined sugar for this??????

Haven't had my period since June. I hope it is over but the ups and downs of the change is tough. Keep going. I sure am trying.

HELP!! I have been eating an Apple every morning and it seems like it takes a lot of my sugar intake and then by the end of the day I go over my intake, not much but I don't want to be worried about having to much sugar. Should I be concerned?????

Cathyxx try using your word pad program side by side this site. That way you can save it and paste into POST REPLY when you are finished. That is what I do if I have a long post.

Good Morning everyone!!!!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

@ Amanda, Just think of it as one of your down days. I have been getting them a lot these past few years. My goal is getting down to 135 or so and I can already see my body dripping. I workout but it's going to take a long time for my skin. (IF EVER) to tighten back. I look in the mirror and I'm not really excited about…

Everyone have a great evening or morning where ever you are. I want my ticker to go past 160 and really trying hard at it. Kathy (plantlady)

I've had my pink polar for years and I just love it also. Mine does have to be sent out for a new battery but It is still running on the first battery. I love the accuracy when I work out. I don't have to hold any handles when I'm at the gym to check how many calories I have burned. Plus, the machines at the gym are a…

Happy October, Well, I'm going to a Chicken BBQ today so not sure if I will be able to log accurately, but I will try. October will be the month that I have my ticker lady to run past 160. Hope everyone does well this month. One foot in front of the other today. Kathy (plantlady)
