Hi Coaches
Happy Independence Day to all you US folk - I hope you have a great day tomorrow.
I was having a bad time last night with malware - many pop-up windows, download of shortcuts to what seemed to be porn sites
, loss of task manager etc. It was a thing called
defense center (sic) which looks like the real thing. Had to do malware clean out this morning. It meant I didn't get to finish or edit my post too thoroughly nor say hi to all the new members - will do so today.
Today I have to do my tax as seeing accountant tomorrow - I want my refund NOW to pay health bills
Boo Hoo - first Sunday in July weigh-in 217.8 (up about 2# for the month)- I have changed signatures and profile to reflect this as I want a fresh start. I wonder if that means I should deduct money from kitty (which is currently in negative balance after holiday spending)?
AmberPr - Welcome Amber - glad you found your way over to these great coaches and buddies
Anne (AnneWonders) - Always good to see you here - half-hearted or not. Much better than dropping out of the group
BeverlyJoy - Glad the scope preparation went better than last time and you actually got it finished with - and enjoy onederland while it is there: motivational I am sure! Your food plans for the weekend sound sensible as usual. Do check out the prices - I had REALLY good health insurance and was way out of pocket - still paying off the debts from last year. My tax refund should clear it hopefully
BillBlueEyes - Your food stories lately are enough to make a girl hungry. The cherry "festival" was definitely not something to pass up by the sound of it. Credit for walking to find delicious and healthy food
Donna (new2me2) - great progress with exercise and weight loss - WW seems to be agreeing with you
Futurefitchick - The eating while standing up is hard to defeat and particularly sneaky! Yay for keeping and freezing leftovers - much better than eating them. Good list of credits - hope you get your food plan done
Gardenerjoy - Credit for all that exercise - you are so diligent! And it is showing in your weight so YAY
Houston2Command - Welcome - and well done on vacation. I find this difficult so credit
Overlord - Welcome and good luck with the programme - I find it very helpful
Shepherdess - Computer problems are really disturbing because you KNOW they are going to take way too much time to sort out so I commiserate. I am glad you and Jen are running it out and that you are still thinking about the marathon. Have a great Sunday
ETA - you have changed your Avatar - it doesn't look quite as desolate and a great shot
sweetnlow28 - Thanks for the progress report. The eating while standing up thing is a challenge indeed
