Hi all!

Back out.

Much pain.

Going to Chiropractor.

Need to be better in 3 days!

Back later. Just didn't want the posting police to get me.

Thin... {{{ HUGS }}} Get well soon !!!

thin, you are in my prayers. hope you get to feeling better soon.

Terri: I picked up a Shape pamphlet and they have "ball" exercises in there too. It MUST be an omen!!!

BarbPA: I am thinking of you and wishing REAL HARD for you. ( I know that is a headache smilie but it is how I look when I wish hard)

I really liked this and wanted to share from my Shape pamphlet:

Boy, is that ME or what???

My scale is broken.
No, I didn't break it by standing on it!!
I see you all picturing springs and nuts and bolts flying out of it as I step upon it!
It's just not working. I changed the battery, but that's not it. See, I haven't been on it in a while, knowing, I guess, that I would NOT like what was displayed there. But now I WANT to know. I need a starting point. Re-starting point. Whatever. So I have to go get a new scale.

I may regret this decision!

Well, Kat, my scale IS working and I don't like what I see one bit!!!!

Hi ladies.

Well, sounds like everyone had an ok weekend. I wish I had a computer at home so I could post and chat on the weekends but I still don't. I'm too cheap to buy one because with my son being so small I don't have a lot of time to be on it.

As far as weight loss goes I'm still going strong. I hit the 40 lbs lost mark this morning. Yippee!! I think it's actually going to work this time. My exact stats are posted below.

Thanks for being here. Just reading your posts keep me on track and I appreciate the support I get as well.

Talk to you soon!

Hi Everyone ---
I want to thank you all for your encouragement and support during this IVF process I have been going through. Unfortunately it was cancelled today due to poor response after 10 days on stimulation drugs. My body just wasn't doing what it need to do. Since this was my first try my dose of meds was fairly conservative. I guess next time he'll increase it. The nurse called to break the news and the Doc is suppose to call me tomorrow so we can discuss the next steps. I'm am taking it very hard at the moment, but I know it will work out. I am going to take the next month to try to get off a few more pounds that have been creeping back and get ready for the next try.

I was thinking about trying to take a last minute trip to visit some friends in OK this weekend . However, the cost of airline tickets it through the roof since it's last minute.

Hopefully my cheerful self will be back in a few days.....

EVERYONE start hunting those web sites for the cheapest airline tickets from Philadelphia, PA to Tulsa International Airport in Oklahoma.

Barb... my daughter knows someone who knows a sight for last minute tickets CHEAP.
she will email me with the address as soon as she finds out what it is.

2cute - Let me know and I'll look into it. Hubby is encouraging me to go!! I just would rather not pay $700 for a ticket......Hotwire.com has a great price ~$300, but I don't get the flight times until after I purchase the ticket. Wonder if it's worth the gamble?

So, I take it you'll have me if I can find a ticket???

Hello!

Well it was a very busy weekend for me, and the net has been down a lot over the past few days (something about a brown power outage). ANYways I think I mentioned that I had a pretty bad weekend..Sunday wasn't so bad because I made up for the points by eating a lot less today. I'm always torn between posting here and posting on my livejournal.

Thin, I Just wanted to let you know I feel your pain..literally! It's taken my back WEEKS to get better...and silly me afraid of doctors (especially without insurance) NEVER went to a doc. I recommend taking one Aleve twice a day since it's a muscle relaxent...it's the only thing that gave me relief. Plus I didn't have to remember to pop a pill every 4-6 hours...by the way...do any of your merch companies offer benefits? I havent had luck with that before.

I see Mary is still hanging around..what happened you used to post so much more!!

YES!!!
Hotwire is definately worth the gamble. I've used it several times for airfare, and for hotel rooms, and I have never been disappointed with my arrangements, If you are flexable and say you can fly anytime Friday and anytime going back Sunday or Monday, you can get really great deals. And they are not some fly-by-night or low class arrangements. I think if you can't find anything else, it;s really worth it

The next best thing I between find was at cheaptickets.com and it was between 535 and 800 round trip, depending on the time you leave PA.

I really hope you can work it out to be there!
