Janet, Hey, you tiny thing you. How are ya? Sounds like you have been busy, but time to get back on the ball, now. Kids are back in school, so time to take care of Janet - right If I were closer, I would drag you to the gym with me!! If you want a new food log, let me know because I have created one and will try to e-mail it to you. You can log what you eat, amounts and times, location and reaction as well as calories, carbs and protein if you want. On the side are check-off boxes for supplements and fluids. At the bottom there is something about exercise, however, I need to change that a little. Anyway, let me know if you want it. Keep up the good work! God bless, Andrea

Way to go girl You are doing great! When I went in for surgery was wearing 30/32 (profile says 28's but gained after that) NOW am wearing an 18 or XL, haven't seen that since school days! I have lost 60 lbs as of today so am very happy with myself! Goals are going to be the same: Drink lots & lots of water WALK WALK WALK I'm loving the fresh tomatoes & have had corn on the cob a couple of times with no probs. Tis the season! Have the carbs under control. I got 2 free samples today from Whey, got Whey Fruity & Lemonade. The lemonade went down the drain it was horrible. I liked the fruity. Still like the sf koolaid nice change from water. Oh ya waist is down around 20 inches! WWWWWWWOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO Carolyn

Carolyn, It does sound like you are doing well. Keep up the walking and the fluids. Glad that you found a protein drink that you like. Personally, yuck to those protein kinds, I like Elite chocolate and chocolate mint. Have a good week and God bless, Andrea

I am having some severe anxiety(sp?) attacks but that's ok. Sue

Sue, Hey, nice picture! It's sure nice to put a pretty face with the words. I love the goal of scrapbooking the journey. I have not started one, but my mom does Creative Memories and says that I need to do one. I have a ton of stuff to go into it, that's for sure. I even saved pics of me riding a roller coaster at Great America this summer! I am so proud of you for not having a cig - and without the grumpies! WOWOWOWOW You are better than me, I got really grumpy when I quit. Keep up the good work. God bless, Andrea

Dixie, Are you there? I see your name, but no words. Hope that all is well. God bless, Andrea
