My bad. I goofed and typed "Sloan" instead of "Nancy." Nancy, good success to your hubby on his plan.
Sloan, I'm not leaving. I eat a lot of core foods but not as much as I should. I understand your thinking the holidays flew. Traveling helps time fly, doesn't it? Congratulations to your dd. It sounds like she has a good plan,too.
Rhonda, Doyle is taking those baby steps. He'll get there. Looks like you have a good plan, too. I know you'll do well. You've definitely heard the proverbial "click."

Back to school tomorrow  I'm going to the grocery today so I can get some meals ready for the week. I also have to work on some lesson plans, laundry, and general straightening up. Before I get started, I think I will jump on my mini-trampoline. Wish me luck! BBL

I wish you luck, Sloan. This is the first Sunday (not counting holidays) since August, 1975 that I haven't had to think about work the next day!

Hi everyone,
I have been slowly reading over my first weeks materials. I said I wasn't going to count points and just do simply filling foods but the last two days I have counted the points. I'm thinking maybe I should go through the pocket guide and make a list of the simply filling foods and use that as my daily eating guide.
How of some of you handled this? Thanks Jeanie

Jeanie, I think you should do what will work best for you. Some of us do strictly core; some don't. I wish you the best of success whatever you choose.
Rhonda, you're just now about to realize that you are truly retired. Enjoy yourself, Cuz. You're going to love it!

Jeanie, I'm with Sandra. Just do what is easiest/best for you. It is good that the simply filling foods are indicated in the booklet, so you can choose them more often or even exclusively.
Rhonda, I don't want to wish my life away, but I would love to be in your shoes! Enjoy 
Sandra, will you be subbing this semester? I'm already wishing for a snow day 
Tomorrow is the big day! Seven pounds to go!!!!

Sloan, I'd love to sub for you. Wish I could. Yes, I am planning to sub this semester. I'm already booked for 1 day in January and another in April. I'd like to average 2 days a week if possible.

Jeanie, I agree with Sloan and Sandra. Do what you can do best and keep doing it. I go back and forth on counting, now in a period of starting to count again. But, the main point is to eat heathily.
Boy, oh boy, I'm going to sleep in tomorrow morning...I might make until 7AM!
Rhonda

Thanks everyone. I think I'll just do the counting for now and move onto simply filling once I get used to things. First weigh in is Saturday so I'll see how it goes. Sounds like we are all gearing up for a new week I have been off for a break of almost 2 weeks. I am a nanny for a school teacher and she has been off for christmas break and right before that the schools were closed for three days due to snow so I am really off schedule. I will probably be tired tomorrow since I have been sleeping in late getting to bed early enough tonight will be a challenge. Have a great Monday everyone. Jeanie

Rhonda, I'll be thinking about you in the morning when I get up! Enjoy your extra sleep!
Sandra, just let me know when you are ready to sub for me. I'll be glad to have some "retail therapy"
