I'm back . . .and pleasantly surprised that I didn't totally blow it at Pizza Delight at lunch time. Had the buffet but actually made fairly wise choices and was satified with less food that I ever thought possible.
Not something I'd want to do on a regular basis mind you, but not too disasterous.
Got home to find that the BodyFlex package I ordered at the end of April had finally arrived . . . so now I've got another new toy to keep me busy when I'm not playing with the camera. The actual exercises don't look too difficult to learn but first of all, she insists that you have to learn to breathe properly. The actual reps of the exercises seem to be done while holding your breath and holding your abdominals in really tightly.
It's called 'aerobic breathing' Anybody every bumped into this before?
Just a few personal comments, gang . . . if I miss you it doesn't mean that I don't love you . . . but I'm sure you all know that anyway . . . it's just that I'm so far behind, I know I'll never get everybody mentioned . . .

Congrats on another fine loss. You are an inspiration to all of us. One little question . . . How come yourtype-size has shrunk? My poor old eyes are having a problem. Can you put it back to the more normal size? Pretty please . . . with Splenda on top.
BTW, I love your "fairy fat-mother". Going to have to find myself one of those.
Lois . . . Glad the ankle is almost better.
Wow, nothing can keep you away from your exercise routine. You are so dedicated. Someday. I really hope to get bitten by that bug.
Liliann . . . Step away from the scale. You'll feel much better about everything if you can stay off the scale.
The scale-
always gives me terrible news if I venture near him any more than once a week.
Cheryl . . .
Isn't it a great feeling to be able to move the ticker. Congratulations, girlie. Wow, I don't know how you are going to be able to stay away from that gorgeous wall hanging until February. I know I couldn't.
Robbin . . . Your taco salad sounds terrific.
And you can be very proud of yourself from staying away from the full-fat version.
Erin . . . I just loved reading your post.
Not only do we all get so much support from others here, we get to listen to our friends when they give
themselves such a rousingly good pep-talk. Very inspiring indeed.
Michelle . . . Wow . . . was I ever surprised when you said you didn't have a digital camera.
Just goes to show you how little I know. The main reason I got the digital was because I thought you had to have one to be able to post pictures on the internet. But you post pictures (the avatars with your daughters in them, for example). How do you do it? Oh well, I never remember to take the film from my 35 mm to be developed anyway so at least the digital will eliminate that problem.
Well, I'm going to close for now. I am getting hungry and want to find myself something light and salady for dinner so as not to ruin my otherwise fairly decent day. Think i will just point my new camera at something tomorrow and push a button and see what I get. Hey, how bad can it be?
Then I can get to the part about how do I put the picture on the internet. That should keep me busy for a bit.
See you soon, gang. Keep moving and shaking and heading in the great downward direction.
