  • Hi,its me, Bernice with a new name. Seems like the computer got infected and we lost everything. It froze and we've been on the phone with Dell to try and get it up and running. Had to register on this site and also lost my address book in Outlook Express. It seem we were targeted and its a good thing this computer is just a toy for us cause if it was a business machine we'd be screwed. Look out for a thing that says Spyware. I think it was the source of the problems. The computer runs so slow now and I have to wait for my daughter to try to straighten it out. We took a ride today to see the leaf changing and found a new housing development. Went thru the model home, all 7000 sq ft of it. 5 1/2 half baths. Think it was over a million dollars. and most of the lots were gone. Taxes estimated to be 20,000 dollars a year. Unbelieveable. Catch you all later, have a great week-end. Bernice
  • Good Afternoon Ladies hope that everyone is having a great day!!!!!welcome back Bernice sorry that you have been having problems with your computer just glad that you are back the house you was describeing is the house of my dreams well use to be since the kids are out dont need that many bathrooms now well Bonnie hope by now that your headache is going so you can enjoy that cobbler!!!!!!!! and I am feeling a lot better but was really rough for me over the weekend when I worked as I really wanted to become a patient and just sleep in one of them beds instead some one was in them and I had to take care of them !!!!!!!!! well the rest of you ladies have a good one Rita
  • hi, new person here saying hello!
    Hi all, thanks for the welcome to my query about looking for mature support...took me a while to figure out how to find you. Glad there are others in the same boat, have been feeling alone in trying to change my situation. Was going to read all that came before on this thread but my goodness! You have 29 pages worth! I will have to take a lunch break to get through it all.

    A little about myself. I'm 61, work at a small management consulting firm doing HR, graphics, editing, you name it, and in my spare time do art--painting, bookmaking, collage, etc. I have two grown kids who live in TN and CA, so don't get to see them as much as I would like. Have been trying to lose weight since a cancer episode 6 years ago, finally got going two years ago with a 20+ # loss, then these last few months got depressed after injuring my back and knee and gained back ten. Am working hard to get back on track...trying the South Beach Eating Plan as best I can, and doing lots and lots of walking. Also started weight lifting, as I want to ensure my bones remain nice and solid. Will go back and read as much as I can of what's been written here when I have time...but did want to just say hello.

  • Hi Susan,
    I'm sure I speak for all the other mature (choke choke) Ladies when I say welcome to our forum. Some of us are doing real well losing and some of us have great intentions but difficulty keeping on track. We are here to support each other and try to keep a positive outlook on a very difficult struggle altho if you have battled cancer you already have faced difficult challenges and sounds like you already are a winner. We encourage you to jump in because each and everyone of us has so much to contribute to0 support another who is battling weight issues. We are a nice bunch living in different parts of the country. If you go back you will read short bios on all of us. Again welcome.
    Bernice

My daughters been having a problematic pregnancy that makes me quite nervous. So........what do I do??? Eat a jar of peanut butter! Ugh, I feel sick. I was quite suprised when I haven't gained any weight! Still at 170. I want to keep chking in as you are all so motivating! Welcome to all new people! This is a great group and PB addict here will chk in more often. Might be going back to Washington next week if they decide to do a C/Section so... I will leave the peanut butter home. Congrats to all with a weight loss and chin up to those of us having a challenge right now! Linda
