Ok, everybody, here is our brand new Thread. I can't believe we are on NO. 100. That's great. It means we have a lot to talk about. I'll just do a short post and come back later. I went to the dentist and that tooth that gave me trouble and the four teeth beside it are not doing to good. The dentist feels its just better to leave them all alone and just come in for cleanings. He said they have all had root canals done on them (30 yrs ago) the teeth are kind of wiggly, and the chances of him doing all the work to remove the existing caps etc etc and the teeth being ok are slim. To have the work done he estimated around $20,000.00, and no guarantees. BROTHER
Talk to you all soon
Slavika: Love little Ralph there! How could you ever get mad at him???
Im lucky. I have good nails. Dont know why just do. Everyone thinks I get them done, but its just little old me doing them. Glad suzanne got the email thing fixed. 20,000$ You have got to be kidding?
Karen: So glad DH got something to help him. That was so nice of you to send the card of encouragement. Those little things help. Theres a girl in my class that has lost 80 pounds to and its awesome. She is doing so well. Bet the girl in your class feels super!
Trudy: It should work. Hit the reload button. I changed the link to 3FC board when it moved. BBC's My favorite are Peanut Butter and Mocha Chip. Yes the points did go up 4-6 points now. They changed the recipe and you can check it out here: http://www.bakersbreakfastcookie.com/
Peggy: When the survey is done do they tell you want it is? Sounds so fun what you are doing. Congrats on the loss!
Lily I can use my shortcut through the wgbcreations now Peanutbutter and Mocha sounds good to me, I've jotted that down.
Slavika $20,000.00 for teeth? That is way to much... I would play the waiting game with them, they might stay this way for a long time. What do you think about Peanutbutter Mocha? Sound good to you too? Hmmmmmm?
Peggy I think the studies you do would be interesting. I like trying out new products too. The only studies we get are health ones. My DH got into a Lung Health Study 13 years ago, and it helped him give up the habit he had for 37 years.
3FC e-mail..can't seem to stop it. I click no on getting it, I have unsubscribed and they still come. Anyone else have any luck?
Be back later, I am going to watch Survivor and then continue searching for the "perfect" Avatar
LILY "Little Ralphie" LOOKS sweet and innocent, but trust me when I tell you he is a mean one. Today is the second day that he has NOT delivered my e-mails. He allows me to "think" I have sent them....but do the people get them...nooooo. Told you mean as a rat. TRUDY I am not receiving any more 3FC e-mails but then you know who might have a hand in that too but I don't think so...since I receive others. They just don't get mine. About the cookies, because I don't like coffee I don't really care for"mocha" flavored stuff. I sent you an e-mail telling you I like the, fruit and nuts and the, oatmeal and raisin I think it was. Course you never got the e-mail. GRRRR
I looked them up today and I think it was Lily who gave the web address and they are smaller in size now and each cookie has 270 cal to 290 cal. (I think it said) For that many calories they should be really good cookies.
Talk to you all soon....
I just wanted to check in with you guys one more time . The rest of my day is going to a flurry of activity. All of you take care and kept on losing.
Peggy I think I read where you have lost a pound Good going. Doesn't it feel good to be in control. From my own experiance I know that when I've got my weight in control that the rest of my life is in control too.
Well I'm out of here. See you at the end of the month. I may check in on you at my SIL she has a web tv so Ill see if I can operate it.
Still very limited with my internet access, however I take every opportunity that I get albeit for only a short time
It is really nice to get a chance to read what you are all up to, love your avatars!!!!
I am well and adjusting to life in very busy Sydney.
The apartment is very posh and by serviced it means that each day someone comes to make the bed and do a bit of a tidy and twice a week the place is vacuumed and once a week the sheets and towels are changed.
I think it is a little over the top for someone to make the bed each day after all I have nothing else to do but I am happy for someone to vacuum and change the sheets.
I hope to try and find some sort of course to do in the 4 months that I am here. I am not really fussed what I do as long as I learn something and have a bit of a commitment with something whilst I am here.
I have searched the net and have found a few things worth following up. In the meantime I am knitting furiously to try and get the jacket finished for my daughter, I have a few books on the go and I am trying to straighten out some of the files on my laptop.
Speaking of books, whilst in Hong Kong I read a book called 'Wild Swans' it was a true story of 3 women, grandmother, mother and daughter and how they experienced China before, during and after the time that Mao came to power. If you get a chance to read it I would highly recommend it.
Take care all,
Cheers
Maria
Hope you dont mind. I copied your message over here so it wouldnt get missed.
Good Grief! I had bookmarked the old site with the message about updating the
site. I just kept going to it all week and it never changed. Today I finally thought it
might just be bookmarked to that message and it was. So, anyway I found myself
here. What a change! I hope I can follow Lily's instructions about getting an
avatar(?). First thing, I don't know where my "Profile" is. Whoops! Just found it! How
is that for being computer illiterate? Have patience!
This is a cool looking site!
Karen - I am so sorry to hear about your BIL. It is just never easy to say good-bye to
anyone.
So glad Dee was looking good too. Wasn't she supposed to have a procedure in
March that would help her?
I have so been needing to talk to you all! I have been OP for 2 weeks and, I mean,
OP (perfect). I have lost .4 pounds and yesterday a whopping .2 pounds! I am going
to try something new. I have been going after work. I have a real problem in that I
drink all the time. Yesterday I estimated that by the time I went to WW I had drunk
100 ozs. of liquid. (I know I am weird.) To not be able to drink or eat before WW
would just be too much for me, I know. Anyway, I am going on Monday to weigh in
on my break at 10:30. I can refrain until 10. And I will see what I really weigh. Do
you think that is a good suggestion? This is what I have come up with.
Boy, is my post a plain-jane! I will try to work on it!

Trudy: I read somewhere here that if you subscribed to some forums you will still get emails. So if you did Go into your profile and click on the unscribe to any that you did subcribe to. I just did and I will see if I still get emails.
Slavika: Oh poor Ralph, hes just trying to help you!
Karen: See you when you get back.
Maria: Sounds really nice to have someone do all that for you. I could handle it!
Glenda: Good to see you made it back! As far as the water, if you always drink that much before WI and WI at the same time it really shouldnt make that much difference. Consistancy is the key. Our you weighing your food again? Sometimes that helps.
I am trying to post again. This is the third time. I don't know where my posts are going. One time they said I was unregistered. The other time I made the mistake of activating spell check and lost the whole thing. This is a trial to see if it goes through.
The funniest thing happened while I was trying to get into this thread. When I logged on to the favorites, it said the thread was being updated. Well, I knew it was back up, so I just typed in 3fatchicks.com and you wouldn't believe what popped up. It was a porno site. I doublechecked to see if I had misspelled anything, but it was correct. I zapped that site and tried the bookmark again and got the not available message. So I tried typing 3fatchicks again and it worked. Who knows how I ended up at the other place. I guess I will have to change my bookmarks.
Have been MIA for a while. Did anyone miss me? I was out of town for a week. We were also offline for a while because my DH changed ISP's again. He has decided that there is too much free internet out there for us to pay money. So far, I am unimpressed. We are thinking of switching to DSL. Does anyone have it?
Slavika, I like the cookie recipe that you make better thn Baker's. I think they are overpriced. I bought some of them and was disappointed. They came out to be $1.89 apiece. Too high! Not worth that price. And, the recipe has changed. They have reduced the size, reduced the fiber, and raised the calories. And they call that improved. I don't think so. The one you found and gave us the address for is much better. I have made 4 batches now and been very pleased. I use the little tart pans that you can get at Bed Bath and Beyond and divide the recipe into 6 cookies. I am going to try some this weekend using the prune puree instead of applesauce.
My little First Place group is going great guns. We are losing weight and developing a closer relationship to the Lord. It is helping me so much. I have been OP for 32 days now and feeling great.
My e-mail address has changed again. If you need it, I changed my profile to reflect the new one.
So funny how this happened to you. I told one of my co-workers about 3FC's website & that it was so supportive & how I spend alot of time here to keep me motivated. She went home & typed in the address of 3FC's to find a porno site! The next day she was looking at me funny but never mentioned it until one day I asked if she ever checked out the website I had mentioned. She started That's when she told me what happened. I was sooooo embarrassed.
Can't wait till Monday to tell her your story.
Lily - Yes, I measure everything. I usually have a 4 point bowl of oatmeal for breakfast and then a WW meal for lunch and for supper I am very precise about measuring. I just cannot understand why in the first 2 weeks I have lost .6 pounds.

Hello Ladies! I would like to get a discussion going on HRT. I am interested in Estriol, a natural hormone replacement. Do any of you have any experience with it?
