Welcome, CakeGirl! It seems like there are no final goodbyes with those we love; our heads stay filled with conversations...I hope you can feel all his encouragement and pride.

It's so hard to avoid getting frustrated with the scale reading...A mere hiccup, Volatis...just get back on that hamster wheel! NurseMom--what salty foods are you eating? Are you getting enough sleep? You're both losing , so keep plugging along!

Flower and Vehuel and Tuca! You're rocking that New Year's Mojo! Holeeee Cow!

Sundove and Sum--doin' great! EVERYONE's doin' great!


...I updated an old post ^. I seem to have met my "public goal" (which is a mir-a-cle!), so now I'm going for the "sealed in the envelope" goal!

Welcome back, Sum and Cakegirl!

Cakegirl, I am so very sorry for the loss of your father. I admire your positive attitude, and you're right, your dad would want what's best for you, and taking care of your health is the very best thing you can do for yourself. Good for you!

Sum, your renewed efforts are already paying off! Great job!

Nursemom, oh my, a trip to the ER doesn't sound fun! Drink, drink, drink water!

SeeMyFeet, CONGRATS on making GOAL!

Raining, I'm so glad you're feeling better!

Vehuel, awesome loss this week!

Thank you Seemyfeet, Jacqui and gardnerjoy anytime I need a little encouragement I think of him.

Today I am struggling with being sick again...all this crazy weather, hot then cold then hot then cold, it is not a nice start to 2016 but not going to let that get me down. Lots of chicken broth and water, hopefully it won't last very long but not going to let it take me off track.

Raining I know just how you feel...hopefully we will be over it and feeling awesome soon!

Hang in there Volatis It looks like it was just a fluke and you are back on track today.

Sorry PrairieQueen but keep positive I am sure you will see the numbers going down on the scale soon!

I love this thread...everyone is so supportive and encouraging it is really helpful when making a life change like this.

I hope you are all having a wonderful day!
