G'day all,
Slavika what a pain for Trudy to have computer problems again I have Windows XP Professional and it did take a while to get used to. So much so that I changed back to Windows 2000 but have now gone back to XP again. persevered and now like it.
Ann Thank goodness Ivan decided to do a detour and not visit Florida. Certainly sounds like the busy season is starting for you. My eldest sister, since the death of her husband, sings in a choir. They mainly go to retirement villages and all they ask for is a donation. This donation is then given to their local hospital. Last year they raised $5000. She loves doing it and the bonus is the money they raise for their hospital.
It has finally dawned on me why people always think that my dh doesn't have to worry about his weight and how 'lucky' he is not to have to worry about his weight.
I think his secret is when he is out, he doesn't really restrict himself (or that is how it seems) so therefore people THINK he can eat what he likes.
I am always saying 'I cannot have that, I am trying to loose weight' and that seems to then prompt people to encourage you to have it anyway.
It used to depress me to think, like Ann said, that I could never indulge again in my favourite things. Now that I have worked out by observation how dh does it, I KNOW I can indulge from time to time but not 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Someone commented at the weekend that I have lost weight and asked what diet I was following, I very matter of factly said that I have changed my eating habits and that I am NOT on a diet!
On that note of wisdom I will say have a great day!
Cheers
Maria
