Hi Guys! Just popping in to say Hi and I miss you! I can't seem to make enough time for the computer lately! I am not doing good on my weightloss so I just get annoyed with the whole thing. We are still working on that house and with the slow housing industry, we are trying to hang in there! I know God is in control of everything. I just let him have the reigns! Happy Easter to everyone!

I think Auto pilot is a good word. Boring got boring!!! I saw there somewhere that they were telling you that you needed to eat more! We are all different so you will find out your plan that works for you. If you plateau just eat a couple hundred calories instead of exercise them. Or turn around and eat less and exercise more. It is too technical for each body!! Different for everyone! Sometimes, I want to just throw in the towle and say forget the whole thing. So far it's ok to eat right on weekdays and not be so critical on weekends. It gives me a little more determination and freedom! Not to mention more discipline!

Hi Pam and Gina, I hope you are getting over the flu, or whatever it is you have. I still haven't gotten sick this year, praiseGod, but everyone around me has, just about! Sorry that I don't get online much anymore. I still pray for you and try to do this eating right plan. I did up my intake of fruits and vegetables and did lower my intake of sweets. My scale is put away for a month at a time. Have a fun and safe weekend. Stay warm and dry if you can.!! Lovya, kathy

Hi Pam, I missed you too! How have you been doing? Did you go to the Mayo Clinic? Weren't you supposed to go? I have been trying to cut out all of the sugar junk and I believe I am down to almost not needing it. I always craved chocolate and if I saw it I would eat it. I just bought more fruit and whenever I wanted chocolate, I would grab a pear or apple. That made me full for about 2 hours and the craving went away. I pray that I would just not like the taste of chocolate anymore! Another thing is that my DH and I go out to eat every night because we are always busy and never get home till about 8 or 9 at night. I started to go home at dinner time instead of to the restaurants and started cooking dinner myself and even though it's not as easy as just buying it already made, it's just as good and WAY cheaper, not to mention healthier. I just use more vegetables than meats and my wallet is thanking me!! My clother are getting looser too! I have to get up with prayer on my lips every morning for the strength to not want to go the easy route. My DH helps me in the kitchen and we are happier to be so creative together! Have a great Friday!

Hi guys! I can get online frequently. My job is coming down on us for being on the internet so much! We can only get online for breaks and lunchtimes. I miss everyone! HAPPY VALENITNE'S DAY!

Hi Ms Dancer! I'm not going to weigh myself for a month at a time! I want to get a few things to be habit first. I don't want to get discouraged every week. It actually takes my body a week to adapt to things. When I used to weigh daily the scales would go up 2-3 and down 2-3 pounds every other day. If I just weigh on the first of each month, I can stick to it longer. How is everyone doing? Please try to stay warm and dry. We had 9 tornados go right through us here in Memphis and southaven last week and are trying to get things cleaned up. Praise God that we are able to help out!

Hello there! Feb 1st is right around the corner, Ms Dancer! I see you are getting ahead of the game! I hope that I can do at least half of the exercise you do! I am going to my Son's wedding on Friday so I will be back on here Monday the 4th! How are we going to do this? Let me know the format you want to use! Hello to everyone! waving arm back and forth......

there you are Ms Dances!! I finally found you. Ok, so I've been absent for a while! I have NOT forgotten the BMR on the 1st of Feb. I do have to go out of town as my youngest is getting married and what kind of mother would I be if I didn't attend my baby boy's wedding! Well he's 20 years old! Hello everyone! I'm Kathy, I hope to get to know everyone soon!

Welcome Alicia! I am hopeful in the fact that you already know that with God, ALL things are possible. He will take care of you if you surrender that situation to Him. When we think that we have problems that are over our head, just remember, they are UNDER His feet! Because we stay faithful and obedient to Him, He stays faithful to us and gives us our heart's desires! I am sure everyone in here has a story or two where the Lord blessed them just by being obedient and having faith that He will answer. Even "no" answers turned out to be the right answers. Bless you for coming in here! We are ALL children of the Most Wonderful Father! I will pray for you also!

Good Morning to all my fellow Sisters and Brothers! WOW! What a weekend! I never thought time could ever go so fast! Well, they say time flies when you're having fun, so I will register it as fun then! Did you all know that taping, mudding, wiring and plumbing and cleaning are fun! I can't look at it all the same ever again! I think the only part of fun, this weekend, was lunch and dinner breaks! Just kidding! We did get lots of workouts! My scale actually moved down 3 pounds!!! YEAH! I'm coming back!!! My scale sat still for almost 2 months! Well, I learned lots of different skills that I've never done! I suppose that we can take anything and make it into a workout! Especially when there is a radio involved! Have you ever sanded a ceiling to AMAZING GRACE?!!!! or moved a 220V outlet to the scripture teaching of Dr. J. Vernon MGhee? Well, it could be done and weight loss and fun were the result, not to mention the approach to a visual finish! I give it 2 more weeks then we push the button on the phone for the realtor!!! Praise GOD for realtors! She will do the hardest part!!! Getting it sold!! I am now at work resting!!! Did that make any sense to anyone!?! at work resting?

Good Morning EVERYONE! I know I haven't been in here in a while now! I won't sit here and sound like a broken record and say that I've been busy, but it's true! My boss has been off for the past 2 weeks so everything falls on me, and also we haven't finished our renovating yet! AAARRRRGGGGG! I haven't even counted one single calorie or watched anything I ate because I never cook at home. Only instant oatmeal in the mornings on the way out the door for work! I get a tv dinner out of the freezer and throw it in a bag, for lunch and stop by the nearest hamburger joint on the way to the house we're renovating. By being so busy and eating unhealthy things, not only made me not lose weight (not gained either), but made my blood pressure go up and stay up everytime I check it. My Dr. is making me take a little pill every morning to keep it at a safer level. Please help me pray that this house will be finished THIS week and that my stress level will subside and may even let the blood pressure go down. I so want to go home and cook again!! Welcome to all the new people and bless you for feeling at home in here with each other. God is good to bring HIS people together for each other to lean on!! Thank you to all of you for your help and knowledge! I wish EVERYONE a BLESSED New Year and pray that if there is ANYONE reading this that does not know Jesus as their SAVIOR, please let us show you, from the scriptures, how to come to him and him to you! He is knocking on your heart right now and so wants to come in and save you! Remember he will never let you down! Start off the new year with Jesus and you will be so blessed that you would not be able to contain it all!

Thanks for the prayers Ms Angela! I am praying for your Mom too, Ms Pam. God really does provide AND answer prayers. Even the little ones! You guys are all real good with the poems! I love them! I have to take tomorrow off so I don't lose it for the year. We are given 2 floating holidays and my boss' last day is tomorrow for the rest of the year. So I have to take it tomorrow! Darn!! I will be back on Monday!!! Have a blessed weekend everyone!

Praise God for all the answered prayers! Ms. Pam, I am so glad you're back, and with electricity. I was praying for you all in that part of the states. My son is in Iraq now, but would have been in Ft. Riley at this time! Probably going through the same things! Praise God for small favors! I go back to the Dr on Friday to see what my bp is (with) meds. I agreed that I would take them for 2 weeks and if it hasn't lowered, take no more. I have been reading all the info that you sent, Ms Dances! Thanks so much. I have been looking into the DASH plan. When you are ready to do the BMR plan, let me know! Baby Elijah is up to 5 pounds now!! Praise God for that miracle child!!!

Thanks Ms Sue. I really don't want to get started on those pills (Benicar HCT). I will eat only vegetables and fruit, if I have to. I will try to make it a priority to cook on the weekends, enough to use during the week. I need to make time!

How is everyone today? Well.........it seems that we have been slacking on the renovations too much because we certainly have so much more to do! Ok..............I will give us till the 1st of January to finish, with all the Christmas events and all. I was really hoping to finish BY Christmas so someone would buy it for their Christmas present. Oh well................I trust God with it all! I am so happy God brought more people to fellowship along with us. It is such a joy to read things that God is doing with you all. He is Faithful and Just, like He says! Praise Him that he is NOT a respecter of persons. He doesn't play favoritism! He treats us all the same! He answers ALL prayers. I would like your prayers for something, please. I have been having lots of headaches so I finally went to the Dr. after a 2 weeks straight headache. The Dr took my bloodpressure and said it was 160/108 and told me to take a pill every morning. I DO NOT take pills and was crying because my mother died because the Dr's always gave her different pills (medications) and after all the years of taking all that med, it ate her liver and she died of Pseurosis of the liver. It all started with just one pill at a time. Her Blood pressure was up, take meds, then she developed diabetes, take meds, then congestive heart failure, kidney failure, more meds, aches and pains, more meds................on and on. When she died, her doctor told me that all the meds she took ate her liver and finally her kidneys. He said Dr's will give you meds to cover the pain, but not tell you that it will damage either the kidney or liver, depending on what you take, but one (or both) will be damaged. Well, all that to say this, I don't want to get caught on that downward spiral of pills. Please help me pray for alternative methods to get my blood pressure back to normal!! If someone has any ideas or tips you are using, please allow me to use them! I told the dr that I would eat only LETTUCE everyday before I take meds. If someone can help me with a normal menu using fastfoods, as I am NEVER home long enough to cook, I will be forever grateful! Thank you! Kathy

Hello everyone! I have been gone for a while now! It's nice to have time off work! It's been a great Thanksgiving. I pray that everyone had a Blessed one also. We have set a date of Dec. 1 to be finished with the renovations on that house. Man it sure looks great! I read all the posts and will pray for EVERYONE! Little Samuel Anderson, Ms Dances' move, 4sq's mother, Ms Sue's sinus infection, Ms Randy's appreciation and confidence in herself, Ms Molly's continued comfort to us all and Ms Pam's pain to CEASE! I missed everyone and will get back in here more frequently! Have a great day! Ms Dances, I wish I were there to help you. What a great workout you will get! Look at the bright side, you're back home again! After you get set up to where you want everything to be, we can start on the BMR plan. We don't have to wait till February if you don't want to. Let me know!

Hello to everyone and even to the new people in here! Isn't it amazing how God brings His children together to fellowship with each other in His spiritual world? I sure have missed everyone in here! It's been such a busy time at work for me these past few weeks. I have been training a new employee and also taking classes to get smarter!!! Imagine that! Ms Dancer, Happy Belated Birthday! I sure wish that sometimes I had the internet at home for times like that. I would have wished you a happy birthday on that day! I hope you had a Blessed day! Ms Pam, I pray that your spoons would never run out! Remember the baby Elijah, that I asked everyone for prayer? Well, He is now up to 4 pounds and is 5 weeks old. He got to come home on Friday! Praise God for His miracles. Remember he was born with a hole in his back and part of his spine was sticking out? Well, in the corse of 5 weeks in the hospital, God closed up his skin and the MRI shows NO nerve involvement. He will still have to have some sort of surgery, but NOT to the extent that was first diagnosed!!! God is so amazing in how He allows us to build our faith! And how He uses us! Baby Elijah will be ok! He still has a few fingers and toes that don't work, but anything is possible with training!!! Especially with God's involvement! Hopefully I will be able to be here more often. I am still at a stand still with my weight. I may have even gained 2 pounds but, I am not doing anything but working hard with that house getting it renavated to sell it. I won't be here Thursday or Friday because my workplace closes down for the holidays! YEAH!! Maybe I will rest those 2 days! We already had Thanksgiving dinner last weekend because my husband's nephew and family was in town so we celebrated it then!!! Now ON WITH THE SHOPPING on Friday!!!! Have a blessed day!

Ms Pam, we, as Christians, need to be more discerning in what "world" is trying to jam down our thoughts (meant to say throats, but that works). We are definitely, on a downward spiral and spinning fast. Teaching evolution in school is not enough for them. This movie is facts and proofs that God is real!
