It's been a terribly busy week. Haven't had a chance to post. I have an appt this morning for an EEG followed by an appt with the doc to get the results. It will be alot of hurry up and wait kind of morning. Michelle - The Help was wonderful. I wouldn't consider it a chick flick. My husband went and loved it. My girlfriend…

Good Monday morning! Cathy, sorry to hear about your migraines. Mine get worse in the fall when it's cold and rainy. They aren't as bad as you'r though. I'm going to see nuerologist and get EEG on Friday, he thinks I might be having mini seizures. Hope not, that will affect my ability to drive and I'm not willing to give…

Just a quick note to let everyone I'm thinking of them. It's Sunday and I'm off to the church kitchen - hope I have more control today than last Sunday. I have had a headache since Sat afternoon, finally this morning I took 4 ibuprofen and it's starting to ease. Well I'm off - pray for me. God Bless all and have a great…

Hi everyone. I don't know how I missed so many days of posting. Welcome Minerva and Jane. I think you'll find this group helpful and inspiring. I don't have much time so I need to make this quick this morning. Friday was weigh-in day and I gained 2 lbs. Don't know how, I've been following my menu and doing water aerobics…

I'm back and thought I would quick post before water exercise. I've decided to take Barbie's advice and open my food diary to the public. I think it will help keep me honest. I never go to check out anybody elses diary - I don't even know how to do it. Sunday was difficult for me. When we served the treats I couldn't stay…

Oops! I missed posting yesterday. Barbie, glad you had fun at your dance workshop. I think it's safe to say you got plenty of exercise. Jane sorry to hear about your knee. It's amazing what rest and ice can do. I had a good day yesterday. Actually got a menu for the whole week made out. DH went grocery shopping so now I'm…

Good morming ladies! Friday is my weigh in day and I lost 3 lbs. I guess starting to exercise4 again and doing my menu dailey has helped. Down is better than up! I wasn't sure if I wanted to log the weight loss but then decided that part of the program is logging everything. I'm just so scared that I'll gain it back. Pray…

Good morning everyone! Thanks Mim for the recipe. That one I know I can eat. Jane hope your treatments are helping. Went back to water aerobics yeaterday. It sur felt good to be back.

Good morning everyone - sounds like most are doing well. Welcome to newcomers and those returning after a break. Yesterday was not good on food but today will be better (Ihope).

Good morning everyone. I'm getting better I'm posting for my second day in a row. It's amazing how easy it is to fall back into old habits. Jane I will be praying for you.

I'm back! Haven't been well and am having problems regulating a food plan that works with my diabetis &/or hypoglycemia. The doctor says because I've lost so much weight I'm no longer diabetic but that I'm now hypoglcemic. This presents the problem of how to keep my blood sugar high enough to be stable without gaining a…

Good morning everyone! Sissy & Michele will be praying for you as you go back for you rechecks. Let us know the results. My walking partner is moving so I need to find a new partner or go by myself. Bummer. Hope all my test results are back by tomorrow and maybe I can start swimming again. The instructor is concerned that…

Good morning everyone! Welcome Genie, Janies & Tobybear. You'll love it here. Everyone is very supportive and encouraging. I went to the doc yesterday as a followup to my bloodwork. He says he can't understand it but after reviewing my records and all the blood test I am showing no signs or symptoms of diabetis. He said…

Hi everybody! I'm a compulsive overeater. I'm struggling just portioning my food. I'm using a small sauce dish as my cereal bowl and if I don't feel like I got enough in that bowl I just get a second bowl. It's just crazy. I used to be able to portion my food by using smaller plates and drinking more water. Now I'll eat…

Jane, I see yout favorite exercise is the same as mine - swimming! I haven't got to swim this week - we were out of town 3 days and my blood sugar took a nose dive on Mon so I couldn't drive or do much of anything. Hope to go tomorrow. Jeanne

Hi everyone! Between being sick and have my computer crash I've missed tons of posts. I'm borrowing this computer so this will have to be a short message. My psych doc changed my meds and added a new one. I had horrible side effects not the least being non-stop eating. In the few days I was on them I gained five pounds.…

Good morning everyone! I need to call the doc to get my meds adjusted. One of the meds I take counteracts another one and I think that's what is happening. Didn't sleep hardly at all last night and I'm not doing very well this morning. I need prayers. Our church is having a baseball outing today and DH is going and taking…
