Wow, great work. That view tells a real story if the work you must have put in.

I ate an orange today

Yes, got that part thanks :)

Well, Hope I didnt start a fire with my rant.

But I agree, not…

Great work chica :smile:

My mom was the same until she saw I was eating a lot more than she was, feeling great and loosing while she was gaining and felt like crap. She still is stubborn, but she cant deny the results. Sometimes I think she just wants to be hardheaded to get back at me for when I was a kid.

Hi Wayne. The starting and stopping thing is a killer for me. I technically am not even new...just a former "lurker" who does/did a crummy job of keeping track of my progress. I have lupus and had a hellava scare this past April ending up a week in the hospital on bedrest. Gaing a lot of weight. From fluids, hospital food,…
