Good morning everyone . Hope this finds everyone doing great.

My mom had a catherization yesterday, and they put in a stint. They also repaired a broken blood vessel. I guess the heart doctor is going to retire her. She was doing good yesterday. She should be home today, if everything goes as planned. Not much more going on here. Getting ready for the wedding, so I need to make this short and sweet.

Everyone have a grrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaattttttt day

Hugs
Wendy

Hey there everyone!
Well its another one of those new days LOL,
And there really are a whole lot of new possibilitys so lets get our healthy attitudes and smiles on and keep right on fighting....cause guess what??? We ARE Winning!!


Sherri- they have about 5 chatrooms here, and only registered members can get in them, I am sure no one would come in off this site and do anything vulgar, I went into the main chatroom here last night and it was alot of fun...also noticed like four other rooms that were empty and thought maybe if we set up a certain day of the week it would be neat if all of us used one of them , it would be private too, and maybe even the ones here that lurk may come in so we could meet them and answer any questions they have.... Just an idea and if nothing else I am ok with out msn settup for sure too...its nice visiting with you guys


Wendy- I am glad your mom is doing good after her surgery, I know how hard it is for the whole family during thoise procedures, my dad has had alot of heart problems and it is rough, but I am thankful he is still here and doing as well as he is, He is the only parent I have left so I definatly want to keep him here as long as possible and he is such a good grandpa to the girls, As a matter of fact he gave me this computer the day before and wouldnt even let me pay him for it!! and then took off and payed for my first months internet use, He just says "God Bless You" and asks for a hug... I think he is just precious!

Penny, Marie, Eleni, Summer,and anyone I missed....
Remember.... Have a great day and know I am rooting for ya!
(that goes for everyone here)

Thanks to everyone for letting me know I am welcome here. I have a hard time fitting in and sometimes I get wondering if I am wrong in thinking I have friends. I don't have a lot of friends outside of the internet but (again) maybe more than I realize. It wasn't necessarily because I wasn't addressed personally because I know how hard that can be. I will try and post more often.

It is a beautiful day here today. The sun is shining and not a cloud in the sky. It is supposed to rain all weekend. As for the chatrooms....I would be willing to try but I can't make a committment to always be there. I don't think I would make it too often because I don't get on the computer much at night.

Sherri....... Congratulations on the loss this week. Another step closer. You are back on track and that is great. We have had several showings this week. I think we are too high but don't want to come down much more. We will leave it on until the end of the month.


Penny........ I am hoping to be under 200 soon. It seems like it won't come soon enough. Hope your day is going well today.

Christie....... Your dad sounds so nice. I have lost both of my parents and it is hard. I was really close to my mom and have had a hard time since she died even though it has been over 3 years. That is great you have a new computer. It was great of your dad to get that for you and pay for your first month of internet.

Wendy...... I am glad your mom is doing well. Sounds like you will be busy with the wedding. I hope all goes well.

Eleni...... Glad work is going okay. It is nice for you that you have some time to take it easy and not extremely busy all day. If you are run off your feet all day it makes it hard. How is the weather today?

Hello to everyone else. I am on the run and should get back to work. It is a little quiet here on the phones and the staff here are a lot younger than I am, are all single and discussing their love lives. Hope everyone has a great day.

Hi all,

I hope everyone is having a great day. I have been doing a lot of thinking about the plan I am on and have figured out why it works. My scale was up this morning and I know why which is exciting because now I know what I have to do to lose the weight. It really isn't about what foods go with what. But by doing this I am eating a lot less carbs then I was but still getting in what I need for the day. Which means I am consuming a lot less sugar and carbs which means I am losing the weight. Also I have realized that by eating all my carbs in the morning or at breakfast and lunch then I can burn them up throughout the day. But if I eat them all day long my body doesn't burn them up and the sugar turns to fat and I gain. So I am going to go back to the way I was eating for the 3 days that I lost weight and I will still keep on losing. Plus I had a lot more to eat yeterday more then I should have. I truly believe that no matter what plan you follow you still have to use portion control. For me that means measureing and weighing everything because I don't know when to stop when it comes to food.LOL I like it too much. So I know what to do and I am going to keep it up.

Marie,

That is great that you had some more showings on the house. It is a hard decision to decide whether to sell or not. I don't blame you for not wanting to come down on the price. You have to make some money on it right? That was your whole life in that house. Glad you are feeling better and you are a part of us. Glad you didn't leave us. Sounds like everything is going well with you. Keep up the great work.

Christie,

You have a great dad. Wish I could say that my parents would do that for me. Buy me a computer. Mine are not like that. They don't part with their money to anyone not that they really have any. But that is great. Sounds like you are very close to your dad. That is great that he is so close to the girls also. Keep up the great work and let the scale keep coming down.
I wouldn't mind going into the chatroom with you guys. Let me know if you want to do it and I will try to be there. Night time would be better for me. I am supposed to be working now and I am not. I am here playing instead. But I have to work tonight for sure.LOL


Wendy,

Hi there. I am glad your mom is doing well. I am sure you were very nervous though. I would be. My dad had a mild heart attack once and that was very scary. Didn't go through what your mom did though thank god. She won't be able to go to the wedding then right? Or was she not going anyway? I will say a prayer for her. We can all use one once in awhile anyway. Keep up the great work. We are all going to succeed and make it to our goals by sticking together.

Have a great day everyone.

Summer are you back from SRD yet? We are waiting to see how it went. Hope all is well and things are slowing down for you finally. You have been very busy in the past couple of months. We miss you here.

Penny how are you doing today and everyone else. I hope all is well with everyone.

hello everyone,I had a 1/2# loss yesterday.I know it is better than a gain but it would sure be nice to see at least a pound loss at one time
Wendy-Try not to worry about your Mom too much.My husband had a stint and he is doing great.And I had a very severe heart attack and then a triple by-pass in 1995 and I am still doing good.They do amazing things these days
Christie-Your dad sounds like a great guy.There is no doubt he loves you very much.As for the chat room.I can't keep up.I like when we get together in a small group but I just am not the chat room type.I did go into that one the other day for about 2 minutes and left.I get lost
Marie.Don't worry about fitting in.My husband says they broke the mold after I was born as one of me was enough. I've always been a loner at heart.Fortunately for me I like doing things alone.I do not have friends that I pal around with like some people do. And neither does my hubby.We are two peas in a pod.But you have plenty of friends here .Hopefully you will always consider me one
The weather here is getting hot.But that is why I live in Fl.I have had a tan for weeks.I enjoy being able to swim laps at home.
Sherri,Sounds like you are really doing great.It does take a lot of planning doesn't it
I couldn't help but think How young most of you are when Marie was talking about her young co-workers.I went to a new doctor the other day and I was old enough to be his mother. Infact I asked him his age and I have 2 children older than him.Somehow I thought that was hilarious.You had to be there.
It sounds like everyone is doing pretty good.
I wish I were doing better.I was going to go out and swim laps but I forgot to take solar panels off .My hubby just told me the pool is 104.A little too hot for swimming laps
So I think I will join him in living room and read my enquirer.You know enquiring minds want to know
Everyone have a good night and I will check in tomorrow
