Good morning ladies!!!!

Ms. Gillian... I love you girl!! You're always right there to cheer me up!! You're right... I AM determined and I will make it!!!!

Ms. Joy, don't you just hate sodium!! It's EVIL I tell ya!! I haven't touched a salt shaker other than to pass it to handsome hubby since July but it hides... evil, just evil!

Ms. Diana, it's good to know someone else can't resist stepping on the evil box in the evening... It's starting to cooperate now. Thanks for the kinds words!!

Hi Kris! So nice to see you around!! Yes, hubby and I did have a nice time. I guess it's just the price we have to pay...

Cmom, take care of that knee. Listen to your body, if it's still hurting... don't stress it out more. Knee injuries are the worst!!

Ms. Shelia, we drove. Flying is much worse on my water retention!! I'm not sure why either... I guess it's the change in pressure and/or altitude? I used to think it was just because I was overweight... but then I heard Kelly Ripa talking about how she swells up like a balloon when she flys and she's anything but overweight!! So maybe it just affects people differently. As for the hanging reverse crunch things... I don't know what that piece of equiment is called. But what you do is hang feet down with your forearms holding you up and grasp these handles. Then you press your back and hips into the back of the machine and lift your knees up. I'll have to find a picture because I know I'm not explaining it correctly!

Ms. C.C., oh I don't envy you with those cravings for sweets! I'm the opposite as I crave salty things. Maybe that's the root of my sodium issues.

Hi Emmy! Thank you for the encouraging words!! Those blasted pounds will move... they're going to have no choice! I'm pulling out the like Ms. Gillian... just watch those pesky things go POOF!!
