Hi, Robert. It's good that you got your wake-up call in the form of a physical. In my case, it was being diagnosed with diabetes. Can't help with the hcg, but I don't think you really need it. I lost weight mainly just by counting calories, cutting back on the junk food, and getting in a little exercise. I know the panicky feeling when you know you have to lose a lot of weight. Still, it's best to take it kind of slow. Do it the right way and avoid the fad diets. We'll be glad to help any way we can.

Steph, we went to Sams, and looked.. and saw one for $399 my daughter thought that was pretty steep, but it wasn't a ball one, and that is what she thought she would like. We went to Sears, and looked there, and tried some out. She really liked the ball model. We bought it,(yellow ball, don't remember the model number) It was more expensive, but I wanted her to have one she would like. Besides, I paid for it with money from my inheritance. :) She vacuumed after we got home. :) Says, she LOVES it. While she vacuumed I painted Bud's room (Bud like a flower bud, the name she gave the baby, since they don't know yet, what it is, and she doesn't want to know till Bud is born either). Moni

Thanks for the reply Sina Sadeddin Design. I'm not sure of this picture will help? White Quartz countertops will be installed and the present pendant bar will be replaced so that the new pendants are centered over the island. FYI the counter top in the corner bottom is temporary so I have some workable counter space right now ;) I could also do a recessed light as well I guess and no pendant but I like pendants.

Main reason to go with the WWF060 over the WWB020 is if you want the extra cycles that are offered. I would recommend downloading the manuals for both to make sure you get the model that has everything you need. Personally I would go with the WWF060 because it offers a separate rinse cycle, this is great if you have any soap left in your clothes and you just want to run two rinses and spin quickly after. The other thing on the WWB020 is under extra options for a cycle, there is no option to add another (3rd) rinse or any option to set 'maximum rinse level' for extra water in the rinse cycle. Also minor, but WWB020 doesn't list a light in the drum. Spin speed on WWF060 can go up to 1600rpm (so clothes will dry faster), on WWB020 it's 1400rpm. On the dryer, differences are a little less drastic. On the TWF160 you'll get the better interface, extra cycles, WiFi and it supports a basket as an accessory.
