Boy am I tired!  We had the most amazing weekend.  We went with two other couples on Friday to Dawt Mill and floated the Norfork river on Sat came home on Sunday afternoon.  That was the prettiest float I've ever been on.  Its spring fed water and it was crystal clear and nice and cold.  We rented a cabin for two days.  I sure am tired today, I guess from the sun. I can't believe its already here and gone.  Today my dad is comming in from Arizona.  I'm so excited to see him.  Its been a year since we've seen each other.  I'm sure he's going to be suprised when he see's me.  He's knows I've lost weight but I don't think he realizes just how much.  Should be interesting.  My momma and I are planning on comming to the meeting.  I hope everyone has a great day! Lou ;)

Lou, sounds like you really enjoyed your weekend.  I went on a float trip once and it was a disaster.  The day started out great but midway thru the trip a thunderstorm came up and we in the middle of the riverin an aluminum canoe.  We got drenched plus there was so much lightning.  When we got back to camp, everything was wet.  We had left the windows rolled up on our tent.  I'm not an outdoorsy person at all so one trip was enough.

How exciting to see your father.  Won't he be surprised!!  This weekend I will see people I've not seen in a year.  They should be really surprised too.

Hey Lou;

I know exactly where you were, our family vacation was to Northfork of the White River for many years. We always camped at Hammonds Camp and floated to Dawt Mill. There was always at least on trip to Dawt. Beautiful down there. We always had what we called a "Low Boil". We caught the biggest crawdads there and would add shrimp, potatoes, sausage and corn on the cobb. What a feast!!!  We haven't been for the last two years.

Have a great visit with your Dad!!!

Hugs;
Barbara

Susan, good to hear you DH has been so successful.  I'm off all meds except synthroid and I'll always take that.

Today I started writing down everything I eat and am keeping track on TheDailyPlate.com.  I'm trying to keep my carbs under 100.  Finally figured out how to figure net carbs.  I ate a Zone bar with 23 carbs so that made my carbs really jump but when did my subtraction of fiber and sugar alcohols, it looks a lot better.  The Zone bars are a little too high in sugar alcohols.  Didn't notice that when I bought them.

I'm also going to work at getting to the gym. 

Jo try the Atkins bars...they are great and have almost no carbs or sugar....and taste fantastic,

Susan,
You look good and that is a good picture.  Hope you all had a great support meeting.
