Good Morning, I don't participate in this group but I lurk "over the fence" from the other gang. I wanted to stop by to say congratulations, Harold. Way to go! Happy New Year to all of you here. You are off to a great start! Tikanis from daily support

Hi Ivamae Thats nice .. I havent had a chance to weigh this week. I am in a maintenance mode from past 3 months .. So am really happy as long as I do not gain any weight. Thank fully I did not gain any weight in Holidays but do seem to have been binging a lot this month with quite a few Bday parties around. Anyway, I have to get back to my workout schedule and reduce another 10 pounds to be on the slimmer side. Harold.. hope you are doing well too. I will post my weight tomorrow. ;-)) Cheers and take care

I stepped on the scale this morning early since I was up and waiting for the coffe maker to finish gurgling that delicious brown liquid of life and I had a lovely loss. I am not telling how much, but it is really a nice one. (Hugging myself here and grinning like the Cheshire Cat !!) We attended the funeral and it was huge. There were so many people that they had to park on the lawn surrounding the funeral home and on down the street. The chapel was filled and lots of folks standing. This boy was truly loved by one and all. The boys parents (divorced) hugged each other for the first time in years. Everyone came together in a bond of love for one another and for the boy that died. It was a beautiful service and the day was beautiful as well. Sunshine and 85º and big billowy clouds in the sky and a breeze blowing. Perfect weather for a perfect send off. Helen

Good Morning, It was a good week last week for me. DH's aunt is becoming more demanding each week. I was so excited to get 30 mins on the treadmill last week, but she made it so hard after the first 2 mins! She constantly asked me to get off and come talk to her,asked how much longer, asked wasn't I tired, said it was too noisy, etc, etc. I finally just pretended that I couldn't hear her and keep repeating that I would be finished 'in a minute' to get those precious 30 mins in. What a hassle! Needless to say I haven't been back on the treadmill this week. I got on the scale this morning and even tried leaning to one side to get it to read a pound less!!!! It didn't work. Still 157 pounds. At least I didn't gain any. Have a great day everyone, Betty
