Good morning all you fellow losers! Quick time because another field trip is coming in 30 minutes. Gotta get my kiester moving. Just thought I'd drop in and share my receipe today. Tried and true just this a.m. Check it out on the receipe board. I may be thinking it's great just because I've been so starch deprived. If you remember, I'm deathly afraid of my triggers which are mostly starch carbs (breads, bagels, muffins, etc) so I eat almost none of them. So this was heaven today. Had 2 with Polaner Strawberry spread. YUM. What a treat. Ok, that's enough with the food obsession.
Froggie---Thanks for hopping on the yoga idea for me. I'm going to pick one if a few days and tell you which one. Do you like to run in a group? It's personnally a big challenge for me. I do it but I don't like it. This is all this old emotional crap from high school when I was the heaviest and last in class. You'd think that recognizing where that comes from will free me but I'm still slow. Lots of slow twitch muscle tissue is my guess. But I can run like the energizer bunny when I'm in shape. Which will be real soon!!!! Oh, like the streamers idea for Rosalie-I'm still pulling for leather vest too.
Connie-Glad you decided to return. This is the best group!!!!! Congratulations on the new grandddaughter. Post some pics soon.
Bob-How're you doing girl? As for wagon music. I have no idea where this came from. Anybody remember "Down by the lazy river" by the Osmond brothers? But, as a country music fan, the Watermelon Crawl also comes to mind. Or maybe the theme to Rawhide.
AR-I think the TM actually was the best idea after pizza. You must've remembered how working out keeps the metabolism revved for a while. Especially early evening. I'm hurling a bunch of energy your way.
Viv-It is sad to be missed. I guess we all succomb to the out of sight, out of mind syndrome. Especially since all of us have busy lives.
Nance----3.5 lbs---You are the queen. Or should I say Goddess? My son looks just like Shaggy! Red hair and thin to the tee. I'll have to post picture soon. And, Love the best the Paltrow Knightly. He is so dreamy. Even have "Clueless" and liked the "Knightly" character though he was a bit young for me. Isn't it funny you spoke of red wine? I had some last night. Soooo good! You hang in there girl!
Sparkle-150!!!! Far out!!!! I thought of you today when I flossed my teeth while reading posts!!! I'm trying to be good too. I guess its a toss up between cold steak and dental floss.
sef-miss you.
Gotta go now or I'll be late. Love Fly

Just got in from my walk/jog, doing the usual 4.5 miles in 51:15, not beating my best time, but not so shabby either
Wasn't ablet o get onto the board last night, Michael hogged the computer, so I finally gave up and went to sleep about 10pm. Nothing on the boob tube to stay up to watch and I was pretty pooped out anyhow.
TODAY IS RECIPE DAY!! so if you'd like to share a recipe with the rest of the board that's SB LEGAL, please try to post it today, though any time is fine as well. I have a good recipe for BBQ SAUCE that I can't remember from where it canme, but I will get that posted for you later on.
I was wrong about my WC program predictions I posted yesterday, it had predicted me at 126, not 128 that I thought - oh well, just a prediction, though it would of been nice to be back down to that the other day. I'm still hoping for a solid 127 or below by EOM. Would really like if for my 16month SB ANNIVERSARY this Sunday!
SOL, congrats, you finally got down below the 200 mark! WOO HOO! Sorry you've been feeling sick, esp right before your reunion, but maybe that was something your body needed to jump start your losing again? Hey, it's a theory! Looking forward to hearing all about your reunion when you get back-have a wonderful time! So, are you going to have the PARTAY house when FROG goes to Orlando??? I'm hoping that LAMAP will come up as well.
BELINDA, thanks for sharing some of your background with us. I hope when you have a chance, you'll post your BIO on the BIO BOARD so we can learn more about you. You sound so creative and energized!!! I can see where you and FROG would be friends I too remember going to the Lane Bryant CHUBBIE dept for clothes-I hated going there, but where could you find large clothes back then for the full-figured kid. I'm sorry to hear about what you are going through with your Mother-you'll find a lot of support with that issue as well here on the board as others have already experienced what you are going through-I thank heaven that I don't have to deal with anything like that, at least not now. Again, we're glad you joined us.
FILLISE, great news to see you are back down to pre-surgery weight, good for you! You must of had some heat stroke happening yesterday-please be careful, it's too hot to be out like that! Seems you and BOB can compare tooth stories this week! WOW-3 bra sizes, that's wonderful! I've gone from a 42DD to a 34D now, too bad when we lose weight in our boobs, they don't perk back to a standing-up-on-their-own position! You make it sound like you got one of those MADONNA BRAS that look like cones! LOL!!!
AR, glad to see you are down, now stop the cheating and really get back on track and get the results you want-no more excuses my dear, you had your vacation fun, now it's back to business (How's that for a kick in the butt?) I bet you don't have that much to lose, but will find that you can tone those trouble spots with exercise. Arms, you want to talk about arms, I'll have to take a picture of mine, but if I tried to post one of those flabbers I think the site would crash from posting such a horrendous picture. Just remember, when you are young, it's a lot different than when you are older!
ROSALIE, CONGRATS on getting down a pound, that's good! You've really been doing a lot of exercise lately, I'm sure it's paying off, even if it is slowly. That's wonderful you can do 6 miles on the SB, I don't think I could. I bet it's great for the thighs! The dog looked harmless, like an old man really, just moseying down the sidewalk-I won't approach a dog that looks mean, but he looked VERY harmless-would hate to of seen anything happen to him, so figured I'd take him home.
MELF, ouch, that spasm sounds nasty! Hope you are feeling better today. Glad you got and like the WC program. Yes, he's very trusting to let people get the program and wait for payment afterwards. There are a few things I wish he would change, but I guess he's happy with it and doesn't have any plans to change things. If you have any questions, he answers pretty promptly. I've been using it since April 2000. There's so many areas that you keep discovering in the program when you look around. I find it really helpful. Sure, we could do a page of pictures, sounds good to me-I'll post the question to everyone on the board and see what everyone thinks
FLY, you know I don't think your own family realizes all you do for them, at least they don't say it-but I hope they think about it once in a while Yes, Michael chose to go to summer school to take an Honors Psychics course, so he can take AP Psychics in the regular year-kids a real brain-he far surpassed my knowledge back in 3rd grade! That's a little high for agave, but heck, as long as you have it, now you can make some wonderful goodies with it. Your colors in your posts are not coming out, when you end you have to put [/color] at the end of your post, or wherever you want the colored script to end. I went in an changed it for you in your last post to get it right for you.
AMSER, you'll get back down, your body is still on KEY WEST mode it seems.
SPARKLE, CONGRATS GIRL! A milestones is right around your corner-here's to 149 next!!!
FROG, CONGRATS on your loss, hey, those scales fluctuate, look at me, still up from my low of 125.5 last week. With our dedication and persistance, we'll get down to our lows again!
JOY, WOW! Glad to see you are coming back to us!!! You were such a vital part of the board way back then, I was saddened to see you leave us. Of course, you are more than welcome back to the board, we welcome you with open arms!!! Congrats on the new grand baby!
BOB, do I see you milking a vacation out of this tooth business? With the time off from work and the flying costs, it still come out cheaper than maybe finding someone in Tampa, or more close to home? I think you just want to get away! Heck, I'm sure you could find a decent English speaking dentists here in Miami!!! Speaking of which...don't use all your time up, otherwise I'm afraid you won't have time to come down here!!! Which is more important, the tooth, or me??? Okay, you don't have to answer that one! LOL!
VIV, of course you are missed-you just haven't seen all the posts I guess of others asking what the heck happened to you! Lobster is fine-enjoy one for Lauren, it's her favorite! The pic I posted was of the family last Sunday, old board-waiting for our frined KIM to post the ones of you, NANCE & AMSER-like you, she's been MIA recently.
NANCE, CONGRATS!!!!! FINALLY, the scales have moved and in a REALLY BIG WAY!!!! 3.5lbs is awesome-see what putting your mind to doing something can do! Sorry to hear you have to fire someone, hope it doesn't get nasty. I await your reply before I book anything-since it's not refundable, I want to wait to see if it's all okay. Mom said she'd watch the kids, Eli says he can't see why he can't get off that time, so I just am awaiting your a-okay!
Okay gals, I'm outta here-have to go eat something for breakfast and go to the library and Walmart. I'll check in with you all later and post a recipe or two when I get the chance.
Have a wonderful day!!!

Good Morning! I haven't had coffeeyet, so the spelling could get ugly! Warning!!! Slept good last night since I forced myself to stay up late and watch a movie to get all this work stuff off my brain!
Sol
I haven't seen 1941 yet. Gosh I hate to admit that, because it seems like that should have been a givin! Are you excited about your class reunion? I always get nervous at those things.
Make me feel like HS all over again. Dan the Man has his 20th coming up next summer, so it's a good reason for me to stay OP. Might be able to wear something hot by then! Yeah, right. I am modest with a capital "M". Even when I do loose my weight I can't imagine changing the way I dress, even though I admire woman who are brave enough to wear dresses that are on the knee, etc. My calves look icky even when I weighed 125 [i]back in the old days...like HS[/b]
Fly
What type of vino do you drink? I'm into Cabernet's lately. Been tring to broaden my horizons every since that honeymoon up to wine country (Sonoma/Napa) that including wine tasting! Made a crock-pot deal last night and threw some red wine in the pot, but the meat must have been horrible because it has NO FLAVOR!
I hate buying meat at Albertson's...they never seem to have good stuff!
VIV
You weren't evil and went to Ben and Jerrys while you were in Vermont did you?????? How was the weather? Did you get your computer fixed at work? We're on a network and have been down for a week...It's killing me!
Debs
I will find out from the boss man if all this mumbo-jumbo is going to affect things. I sure hope not! I need, not want a vacation!!!
I reminded him thatif I don't take it by August, I loose my time, because that is my anniversary date at work!(Hey, he made the rules!) I will find out today so you don't loose a chance at a good rate!
Well, betterget my coffee and get moving! Talk with you ladies later!
Just calling in to say Hi. Don't have time for a long post as I have to get out to the hairdressers.
Connie - Welcome back. You know I was just thinking about you a while ago wondering what had happened to you and here you are a few days later back with us.
Viv - Haven't forgotten you either. Glad to see you back posting again.
Frog & Fly - Hope to go out bike shopping this afternoon. I won't forget the streamers. Might also get a Snoopy horn to go on the handelbars too. I'll save the leather jacket for later.
It's going to be another scorcher today. But right now I'm typing and looking out to the terrace to watch the hummingbirds feed. I could watch those little creatures all day! They must be the only creatures with a metabolism fast enough to process sugar. I make a syrup for them every two-three days and they go to town on it!
Viv? Viv? Didn't there used to be someone named Viv on this board????????
Connie--Welcome Home! Reread the book and get back on track! We missed ya!
AR--Keep at it girl! I find the days I get busy and don't plan are the days I'm most likely to slip. A little time each morning to think about the day ahead does wonders. When confronted with Pizza I can't resist I have been known to scrape the cheese and toppings onto a salad. It sounds gross, but is actually quite tasty. That's a trick I learned from someone else on this board, but I can't remember who.
Nance--WoooHooo x 3.5! You go girl!
Sparkle and Rosalie--Congrats to you two on your losses!
Deb--How do you walk in this heat? When I get the go ahead to hit the road again, it will be in my nice air conditioned gym! Heat doesn't normally bother me, but it sure did the other day!
BOB--I do not envy you the trip to the dentist! My mouth is still sore from that stupid file thingy! But I do know that they are a necessary evil.
Frog--I'd be much more likely to head to NC than to Vegas. I'll use any excuse to get to the old home state!
OK--my stationary just arrived. time to get to work designing my brochures!
Well, when I popped on last night, I ATTEMPTED to post a quickie to let Frog know I too, would be interested in a N.C. get together While I was doing that, I also got caught up in an IM with an online bud I don't talk to much anymore. Before I knew it, I was sleepy , and when I told her goodnight, poof, I just signed right off without hitting the submit bottom for my post Hope I am not getting early Alzheimers!!!!!
OOOOOPSSSSS.. I just did it again. I had a wonderful chat with Mary. Let's continue to keep her and our other dear team members here that are struggling with mouth pains, and any other physical ailments for that matter!!!!!! Boy, life can be miserable whenever we are in any kind of pain
I want to post more, but will have to wait AGAIN I gotta get them chores done, or the DH may skin me alive!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey quick post just got the old excersise clothes on! yeah! This week has been kind of a bad one in that department. I walked for 2 with hubby sun. afternoon, monday did an hour almost of my favorite The Firm tape with weights-tues had to get the fluff and color (seems like a trend around here!) i intended to work the bod but it never happened. Yesterday was hubbys day off we took the kids to a water park sooooo that was my excersise walking up and down those silly stairs and around the park! My eating had something to be desired though that brings me to my weigh in! I weighed Sun and was 139.5 i was awsome Mon and Tues weighed Tues night at work and I know i was under 139 (the scale is not accurate but i know what i was on it before! LOL) I must be up since i went wild yesterday! I hate those days. I don't know when i will get to a scale again we are bringing the middle child to camp and staying at the beach over night this week end. So looks like next Wends. The excersise will be good next week to -one less person to fight over the t.v for!
Still very jealous about not getting to chat on Tues. nights. looks like i might be getting layed off next Tues. from work woooooo hooooo!!! soooooo maybe in two weeks i can join you chicks!!! I can't wait! I know my replys and posts are few and far between its just my life right now. I am glad i have u all for inspiration. Hubby is helping too by trying to lose some weight. I think i sabotague him now!!!! Bad me!!!!! I can say been there done that!
Viv- HI!!!!!!! ((hugs)) I just figured you where as busy as i was and where lurking. Its summer and with kids i know how it is. Hope you where lurking while you where gone.
Melf-glad your feeling better!!!!
cmd- welcome back!! the first thing i thought of was the baby when i saw your post!!!! Congrats!!!! I always liked reading your posts!!!!
ADams- wooo hooo on the excercise! and the weigh in! stick with it girl maybe that 2 lbs will be gone this week?!!!!
Sol-wooooooooo hoooooooo on under 200 and look how far under!! hope the reunion is fun!
sparkle-woooo hoooo too!!!! 150 is awsome how does it feel?! I am sure you'll tell us i can't wait!! keep it up girl!
Frog- are u recruting sugarbusters?? I had a dream i got my sis inlaw on sugarbuster and she lost 100 lbs!!!! your doing great keep it up!!!!! having friends on the wagon is really motivating keeps you on program too!!!!
amseraphim-woooo hooooo you too!!! pre vaca weight! keep it going! hope your belly feels better!!! How was the tread mill?
Belindawannabe-welcome thanks for the bio! you'll do great! you seem to be comfortable here already!!
Rosalie-you sound like an awsome grandma! my mother in law will be 70 this year and still comes to all my kids stuff! they love it and will never forget that!!!! The bike ride sounds good! i have one i just ride with the kids but there must be alot out on the internet about it!
sef- Hi!!!!!!!
Deb- Hi!!! sounds like you are busy too! how is Lauren doing? does she write? i am sending mine off this week and the next! woo hoo!
Kelly- Hi!!!! yes it is great that hubby wants to lose. He is going through some stuff with my weight loss and he dosn't think he looks good enough!! MEN! he is doing the Weight Watchers right now and i am slowly weining him to Sugarbusters! LOL actually he wants to get off sugar too! i think he is too good!!! He really is helping me with these last 10-9-8 lbs who knows how many now!! i know its under 10 lbs to get to my goal!!! Where in Mass are you??? I am in central Mass. Near the New Hampshire boarder. Glad to know u!
HI BOB!!!! and everyone else i missed thinking of u!!!!

Rhonda
201.2/139.5/135???130.0 (just for a buffer?)
I'm having trouble staying on the net or even getting on at home. I have tried to post twice now and will go for a third tonite. Just wanted you to know I wasn't MIA. Gotta get back to work.
Lara
Another fast post. I am actually going to get out the door by 6:15 today!!!! I'm doing lower body weights and very nervous because I haven't done them in about 3 years. I forgot how.
I was getting ice for my protein shakes from the bagel shop downstairs. I always brought my own cup. Yesterday they yelled at me. The big local chick screamed, "You can't keep TAKING ice" and the manager, more politely, said, "I'm gonna charge you $.25 a cup every time." I was so hurt and ashamed. I didn't think it was wrong since I didn't take a cup. So today the plan is to bring them all SIX of their dammed quarters since they made me feel like a thief.
So alternatives. I have a thermos that is bulky but do-able on my bike, so I did up a shake in the blender and poured it into that. I think it will hold for a couple hours and will taste a lot better too.
The rest of the plan is going very well. I haven't been hungry except for a little late last night and am eating MUCH less than before. Did 9:20 minute miles yesterday (2.10 of them) better watch out Froggie I'm gonna catch you!
cmd4joy Your statement "it's driving me nuts (and that's a short trip)" really gave me a belly busting laugh. Thanks, I needed that. Gee, I hope you get your program working again. Sorry to hear that the calorie counting went the wrong way for you, but we're glad that you realized that this WOE IS the answer. Stick with us girl, you know we won't steer you wrong! Congrats on the new grandchild. Hey, I have a friend on the CPAP for sleep apnea & she said that the apnea actually hindered her weight loss. I believe she has been able to lose some since she's on the CPAP. I hope it makes a difference for you too.
Nance, LOL..yes, I know what it's like to procrastinate. I do it too. But now get on the stick girl, cause I've already tried Deb's Tabouli recipe & am ready to try yours now
Bob OK, I DO understand the dentist thing now & I guess an airline ticket might be a little cheaper if you can find good rates for an airport nearby. Good luck & don't wait too long to take care of those toothees
FLY, Hope you have a good outing on that field trip. Sounds like you really enjoyed your muffins. Will check out your recipe later. Also, I have a good muffin recipe that I need to post. I prepared them last week & put them in the frig. Have one left. High in fiber, DH & I really enjoyed them.
VIV, Sure do miss you on the board. Saw you on AIM the other day & almost messaged you. Next time I will.
AMSERAPHIM, Enjoyed our chat this am. You're such a sweetie.
lDBLOND, Thanks for the email & your prayers. I do appreciate your thoughtfulness.
Well ya'll, I haven't finished reading, but my back won't let me sit here a minute longer. I'm gone back to my heating pad. Will post more later.
Yikes, I thought summer was supposed to be when teachers rest...not this one, I'm afraid. I did much better with the WOE when I was reading and posting all the time. I haven't had time to read anything this week, I'm taking a class all day every day. Math Their Way, all teachers have heard of it. It's a pack rat's dream and my nightmare. I hate boxes and boxes of little pieces of junk, and this class is telling me I need to have tons of that stuff to teach little kids math. I DON'T THINK SO!
Nine days till the wedding. I can't wait. We are having an anti-rehearsal dinner the night before. Johnny's Pizza and champagne for all family and out of towners. Johnny's actually has a sugar busters pizza. I don't remember seeing champagne on the legal list, what do you think? *wink*
Gotta go to Walmart (of course) and the cleaners. You would think driving around would burn a few calories, but I seem to be gaining or staying the same.
See you later when I have time to read and respond...
Melf - Hope your back is feeling better to-day. Although I have not had back problems my dh had severe back problems for many years so I can understand what you must be going through. Hope the chiropractic treatment helped.
cmd4joy - Congrats on the new grandbaby. I hope you are able to find that program Melf is asking for. It sounds like it would be useful. Hope to see you get back on track with SB. Sorry to hear the other program didn't work for you. At least you know that SB does work and is also a healthy way of eating.
Viv - Hope you enjoyed your holiday in Vermont. I agree that vacation time can be really tough to stay op. I gained 8 pounds while I was away in June. It's taken me about a month to get it off again. I am just about where I was pre-vacation. I weighed in at 200 pounds this morning, which is one less than yesterday. I just hope it stays off.
AR - Glad to see you are keeping up with the exercises. Sounds like you are very energetic with all that you are doing. I'm sure you worked off some of that pizza!
Nance - Congrats on the 3.5 lb loss. That's great. Hope you can get that Tabouli recipe up soon. I've tried Deb's and it is great but always ready for something new.
Fly - Your pancake recipe sounds great. I'll be giving it a try soon. I made buttermilk pancakes this morning and have a batch left over to take to work in a.m. and heat in the micro.
Fillise - I agree with you about planning. I find I do much better when I plan my meals for the day. Then I am much less likely to go off plan.
Rhroo - It doesn't sound like you have really done too bad with the exercises lately. I am sure you used lots of energy while at the park with the kids. That counts as exercise too. Just eating wild one day shouldn't put the weight up when you have been doing so good lately. The thing is just to put that day behind you and get back op and I am sure you will do fine. Sounds like you are happy to be laid off!!!!!!!!
BOB - Hope you get that tooth fixed soon.
Deb - I'm looking forward to trying that barbecue sauce recipe.
I cannot find my Sugarbusters book.... so I ordered another one from Amazon. I hope it gets here by Friday, but I do have the cookbook so I have a starting point again.
I am hoping that the CPAP will help me lose weight. It's a double curse..... sleep apnea keeps you from losing weight and the weight keeps the sleep apnea alive.
I'm so glad to be back. It's a fun place to be. How ironic that people were thinking of me and here I just decide I need to get back on this WOE. Hmmmm..... LOL!
Off to relax a bit. It's a crazy time right now at work. Our inmates have been locked up for nearly six weeks now, since a major staff assault, and while it's quiet on the yard, my mailbox is full of requests from inmates for mental health services. (I work in the mental health dept of a major prison....)
Hi All. Somedays I just can't get enough of you're support. Today is one. Just got back from a killer rollerblade workout!!! Took me a while to get my blade legs and balance. It's amazing how much you lose if you don't do it. Street Smarts is on TV. It amazes me how little some people know. Also, they cheat in how they pose the questions. I do feel smarter though after I watch it.
Hopefully the color will work in this post. Many, many thanks to Deb (who must be super busy today or taking a much needed rest) who got my post challenged color straight last time. I owe you so much Deb!!!!
Rosalie--New weight low and new do??? You are styling!!!!
Belinda Wannabe-I liked Frogs idea of B.W. because I felt like typing Wanna. You are soooo funny girl.
Lara-I just thought of you today. Glad you're still breathing.
Sparkle-You know when I thought of you? When I was rollerblading. We have a decent wind blowing from the northeast today and I really had to power with some gusts. You never mention that in your rides and such and I know you encounter them often. You must be one tough chicK!!! Don't let those emotionally challenged women take charge of your feelings. I'm sure they're just jealous of how well you're doing!!!
Melf-when you eat that muffin tomorrow. Promise to think of me??? Inhale deeply before biting too.
Nancy- The wine I had was the "Two Shilling Red" I was mentioning to Bob. It is labeled a classic table wine. I like it because it is full bodied and really dry. I discovered it 3 years ago when our company had a seminar in Williamsburg. I would love to bolster my knowledge of wines as well. My dh and I had an incredible romantic weekend involving a winery when we first met too. Long story short: We went to a Jimmy Buffet concert and then on a weekend trip to Shennandoah Valley with mutual friends. That's when the sparks began.. Speaking of sparks when is Dan the Man home???? Soon I hope.
Well, gotta feed the family. Had during my field trip lunch at Subway. My absolute favorite salad. A BMT salad. The only thing bad about it was the high fat content. I had vinegar for dressing and loaded up on all the SB legal veggies and crushed red peppers. It was great!!!
Thought I'd get in a post before ELi comes home and while Michael is at his friends working out. Just got finnished preparing the Crustless Spinach Quiche (MAY 2000 RECIPE BOARD), which I haven't made in a really long time-heck, I haven't made much of anything in a really long time! Yes, believe it or not, I am cooking tonight, if you want to call this cooking, it's such an easy recipe! I made a double batch so I could freeze come-when I just make the regular recipe, it's gone in a flash.
I have a lovely headache today, going to pop some 222's and be done with it soon. Didn't do much today, ran to a few places with my Mother, that's about it before I had to go get Michael from school.
NANCE, do I see us comparing body parts if I come there? You with your calves, me with my entire body! I have HUGE calves!!! I won't wear anything above my calves, at least you'd go to the knee Missed you this morning!
ROSALIE, so you got pampered today, eh? How's the new "do?" The BBQ SAUCE recipe is now on the RECIPE BOARD Let me know if you make it!!
FILLISE, you have hummingbirds? I love them! Unfortunately, you don't see them down here-not unless you visit a place called Butterfly World, they have some there. I love the way they zip around so fast! It's hot, for sure here-but I try to get out as early as I can to walk, since I have to take Michael every day to school, I'm out the door by around 7:30am, so it's hot, but not as hot as it would be an hour later. I guess I've gotten used to it, but I really look forward to when we are back to carpooling and the weeks I pick up in the afternoon, I'll be able to go for my walks before 7am.
RHROO, doesn't sound like you are too unhappy about the possibility for a layoff-I guess looking for the good in everything, having you at chat makes it not seem so bad Thanks for asking about Lauren. She called today, having a great time, said she wrote, but haven't gotten it yet-I've written her twice now, bought her a cute card today to send her. How long is yours going to camp for??
LDBLOND, glad to see you are checking in, though sorry to hear you're having computer trouble. I told NANCE that it's a definite must if I get there that we meet up as well-a 2 for one special!!!!!!
MARGARET, you said it yourself I did much better with the WOE when I was reading and posting all the time. and it's VERY true! The more you stay connected to the board and all of us, there better one does-so here's hoping we'll be seeing lots and lots of you after things settle down after the wedding and honeymoon.
JOY, I clicked on the link to see the baby, and it says the page I requested doesn't exist!!! Sounds like the inmates have been unruly lately-I'm sure you are keeping them in line though!
FLY, rollerblades - kewl! I can't do it, would break my neck for sure!!!!!
Okay, I'm outta here for now.
See you later!

Happy Thursday morning!!!
Check it out on the receipe board. 
Oh, like the streamers idea for Rosalie-I'm still pulling for leather vest too. 
Yeah, right. I am modest with a capital "M". Even when I do loose my weight I can't imagine changing the way I dress, even though I admire woman who are brave enough to wear dresses that are on the knee, etc. My calves look icky even when I weighed 125 [i]back in the old days...like HS[/b]
