Hello to all and I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend!

WOW!  Lots of new people have joined our group.  I hope they jump in and start posting.

I got on the scale this morning and couldn't believe it.  After almost 3 weeks of eating high fat, high carb junk food, I have gained a whole whopping 1.6 pounds.  It's almost not worth it.  I am thinking of just learning to live with this overly skinny body.  Eating too much has made me sick on a couple of occassions and that wasn't pleasant.   I have to go buy some clothes today; the summer stuff I bought  is all too big right now.  I got 2 pair of capris in a medium that I am swimming in.  I guess I'm going to have to switch to a small.  It's very hard to get my brain to wrap around the idea of fitting into a small.

We are having cement work done in the back driveway and a new floor in the garage.  They started with demolition at about 7 AM this morning, which was way too early.  I hope they don't take two weeks to get this job done.  They are lifting up the garage by two inches for the new floor.

I was grocery shopping the other day and came across a new product to try.  Atkins has come out with a high protein (20 gms per serving) low carb version of Bisquick.  I can't wait to try the pancakes.  I am always on the lookout for a way to get in protein as I still can't handle the taste of the shakes.  Hopefully it won't be too awful tasting; it was $10 a bag.  As soon as I give it a go, I'll let you all know how it was.

Well that's all for me; I hope you all have a great day!

Dear Colleen,
     I'm so sorry you are having such difficulty putting weight back on. I'm sure you are doing everything possible to gain so I won't be giving any advice. Just a note to say I'm thinking about you and I care.   Mag

Rooting for your health Colleen. Happy to report that I didn't gain while away for a few days. The scale reports no gain or loss during my roadtrip. I am thrilled about the no gain. Working on the losing, one day at a time. Offer still stands for adipose transplant, lol. Willing donor here. Hugs
