    Good morning everyone. Welcome newcomers. Welcome back those who have returned.

    Having butter as a Taboo might be difficult for me. I never eat real butter but I use I Can't Believe it's Not Butter Spray, does that count?

    I see we have several new people which is great, glad you joined.

    MJ sounds like you're doing real well. My prayers are still with you.

    Cindy, you,re doing a fine job keeping us all on the staight and narrow. Thank. Can't wait to see how many sign up for Feburary.

    Well have a great day everyone. I have to assemble bulletins at church this morning. God Bless.

    Jeanne

    Jeanne,
    I really miss assembling bulletins, I did it for over 25 years, every week. It was part of the rhythm of my life.
    Chill, Welcome! Here are a few great sites I visit every day:

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/
    This one gives you food menus, food calories, weight tracking and exercise tracking for free!

    http://www.foodfacts.com/NutritionFa...es-25-oz/29441
    This lists name brand foods and the calorie count and WW points

    http://www.exercise4weightloss.com/index.html
    This has the WW formular to figure out how many points you have each day,
    and all restaurant menus for WW points

    These are my "go-to's" everyday.

    I also use these spreadsheets to figure my points and convert to WW recipes:

    http://weight-watchers.blogspot.com/...rs-points.html

    I have been amazed how successful I've been as I don't have that history at all.

    Judy, a tricycle is a good thing but what about what I use at Rehab? This is a countertop set of pedals, first I use them on my arms for 10 minutes, then put them on the floor for my legs. You get the benefit without the snow.

    our January winner is a 2 way tie. Both lost the same amount. Congratualtions to Purplemem (MJ) and JHolm. Keep up the good work ladies.

    one other person was 1/2 lb behind them. What great strides everyone is making.

    I will be mailing your skinny FQ's by monday as I work all weekend and have doctor appointments today and tomorrow.

    I believe this weeks TABOO is to avoid butter...........extra butter on the table.

    Beachbound has asked someone to take over but we have not heard from the new person nor has she signed up on the weight loss thread. I will wait to see if I hear from her.

    PM is a private message. On the top of the page you see where it says notification. That is one place to get to your inbox, or under the home tab it says private messages you can click on that.

    I will send you am PM with info needed to send a FQ.
