Im in for September if you all are. I have to get new batteries for my home scale though.


I have not cheated ONE day, ONE calorie and the thing is saying I weigh this much one minute and that I gained a pound and half the next.

Finally this am I decided to do a little experiment. I got dressed, weighed on the wacko scale twice of course it was two different amounts, went to the office and weighed in on my physician's scale. These two scales used to be dead on. I weigh almost two pounds less than my home one said I did just a few minutes before. Methinks me batteries may be dying a slow death!

Looks like Im off to Walmart tonight to get some batteries.

I have missed most of the posts but am slowly going back and catching up for the month.

Such a great group and so much support.
Sorry to hear about your heart. I do know from my Mom that you have to have blood tests every month to check the thinning of your blood. You don't want it to get too thin. Also, you will bruise easily--that's from the blood thinning cumadin. I wish you well. Take good care of yourself. Donna

Missy, Go ahead with the brunch as tho nothing has happened. Be there for your sister whenever she needs you, however. I am so sorry to hear this about your sister. I know some people have men who are worthless; however, there are some good ones around--like my hubby for 50 yrs. Tell her not to give up just be careful. Donna

Thank you so much Leota!!

I have just a few more minutes until the quiche and palmiers are done then in the oven goes the crostinis.

Sigh. I am pooped.

Missy
Maybe you are pooped but that is a good sign it means you have been moving your butt. So even though the food is more then calories then you would eat if you count calories with preparing the food the extas calories are probably a wash. Did that make sense???????????
Yep it does make sense! The brunch was a success. Everybody loved everything. AWESOME!

In the mail today I got my order from OneStopPlus and I fit into a Size 4X pants!!! I have been wearing a 7x and 6x. Holy moly. What a great feeling!

Grannie-k so glad your doing better. We had our Aunt who was on blood thinners and she had to watch out for depleting her potassium . Doctor check her often so you might as your doctor about that. I'm not sure if it was Coumadian
