Hi, again--
Ruth, from what I understand, you only have to register for the chat on the prevention site (no charge), and there's no requirement to be an SBD online member.
Thanks for the compliments, ladies.

The ticker was stuck and making me crazy for about a month, but I've been back on Phase 1 for a week, and the scale finally budged! I think I had been letting too many trips to my coworker's chocolate jar trip me up, so I decided that maybe some detox would do me good, and it did. Laurie, my hipbones actually protrude now...lol! Also, I mentioned a while back that my sister and her husband started SBD, and they are doing great! It's been great motivation
Things at work have picked up quite a bit recently, so I don't have much time to check the site these days. When I get home, I'm exhausted, and the last thing I wanna look at is the computer.... You work at a college or university, too, right, Laurie? Is April usually awful for you at work? I've worked at this college for almost 5 years now, and every April is just horrid. Too many deadlines are hitting at once. Anyway, I'm just trying to take it one day at a time without taking it out on poor DH... He works across town at another university and is going through the same April crunch that I am.
