I have sent FQ to the US for the last 2 months and it cost me about $1.50 for each one. I don't know if it's about the same the other way.

Hi all, I know it's late but this is the first chance I've had to check in.
Lauriejo It's really nice of you to do this for us. Just let us know what amount is needed, thanks again for your help
I did pretty well all day so hope to keep it up. Went for walk in the park with our dog for about 45 min and kept away from sweets and watched my portions.
Glad the work is done at your home Missy. I hate the mess that remodeling creates but love the results.
Wish you all great success tomorrow.

Good Morning! Wow 4:30 is to early to get up. My sister and I walk every morning at 5:30 and I thought that was early. Today we walked at 5:00 as she had to go to work early. I'm glad we don't do that every morning.
You go Carrie I know you can do 10 lbs I'm cheering for you. If you do your exercise 5 days a wk and watch what you eat I know you can. You go girl.
It's good to see everyone getting off to a good start.

Carrie 4 lbs and you will be under 230 yipppppeeeeeee!!!!!!!
When I was 209 I was wating to hit under 200 once that happened it was under 190 and it was a relief that yes I can do this. at 180 I keep thinking under 180 and then it is not to long before I hit 172. 172 is the wight that I then know I could do it and reach goal. Well that is what I thought in the past and did happened when I was younger but the weight was easier to come off. I was SUPER thin all my life. My wedding dress was a size 3 and had to be altered smaller I was so thin. I am 5'6" and weighed 98 lbs at the time. After the kids I was 135-140 but when doc put me on meds for the vertigo years ago I ballooned to 205. After 2 years and no improvement I stopped taking them and went down to 172 and stayed there for 3 years then I decided to diet and lost over 30 lbs in 4 months. I was at that weight until I moved to Ohio and krispy kream donuts. I then gained and weighed 152-160. Little by little I started to gain and with the vertigo being so bad and then depression from Joyce the wight piled on and last year at this time I weighed 209. I will noever be that again. I am hoping since it is cold people will not be working with power tools to cause me to have the vertigo as badly as it never goes away, and that I will be up and about more and will be able to exercise.
Why I wrote all this I haven't a clue..........just part of the rambling we all do so well.

Tru I can totaly relate to the 200, 190 etc.etc. now I'm looking for 170. And it does seem to creep back on if you don't watch closely. I was down to 140 several yrs ago but it just kept creeping up to 220-225 and I swear I'll never be that again. I hope it stays quiet around your home so you can get up and get around a little.
I'm trying to get a quilt quilted but my machine just wants to break its thread. I've checked my tension, leveled it made sure it is not binding. I hate it when it does this.
