Topic: RE: South Beach
Hi there Maureen;
Way back when we were pre-op,if you recall, Dr. A. wanted us to lose some weight before our surgery. I used the South Beach diet and had good success with it. I lost about 25 or 30 pounds as I remember. Just one word of warning......The first phase really sucks! Once you get by that first stage, however, it's a lot easier and more rewarding!! Good Luck!!

i've cut back on my calories in little ways. its difficult to find it sometimes to cut! instead of a large egg that is 98 calories i have 3 large egg whites that are less than 60 calories! they even fill me up more than the one large egg. and they are loaded with protein. its the yellow part that has the bad stuff in it. I had totally forgotten all of that until I started going to fitday again.
my addiction right now is wheat thin crackers. OMG I love those things. a portion is 14 crackers and has 140 calories. i've tried to find something that is better for me than those. i did find that when i eat them they do bother my LBS alittle bit so that i dont' get sick but i do get shakey. so yesterday i cut them out. i'm hoping to continue that today.
instead of those i have a cheese stick and seedless grapes. less calories more protein and the sugar in the grapes is a good sugar it doesn't bother the LBS as long as it is combined with the cheese stick.
i swear to god i spend more time thinking and planning my food than i ever did in my whole life!
good luck adn god bless judy let us know how well your doing with the south beach. its a much better diet than atkins cause it gives you more variety and its healthier because of that variety@!

Kim I'm so happy for you that is wonderful! See ther eis some good out there!
Judy I can not get over the bad that is in the world. to think that poor woman was filing her car to go to work an dsome horrible person would do that to her. all because they are too lazy to get off their butts and find a job that would make their families proud instead of ashamed.
all we can do is pray

wow kim i didn' teven think about how they had keys and address! you wre right to change the locks. i'd do the same with the dogs too if i was you.
i've been looking at getting new locks for my doors. they are original to when i bought it not that i think the old owners would have keys but the deadbolt doens't work cause i dont' have a key so i can lock it at night but can't during the daytime. \while i know if they want to get in bad enough they will find a way i just think the smart thing to do is make it as difficult as possible for them so that they give up and go find someone easier to get into.
then again i do have the attack bird. hahaha paulie might to his police siren impersoniation and scare the bejesus out of them!

Topic: RE: My little dog Charlie is ill
O Judy that sounds like so much fun! I love puppies and had thought about getting one recently to give Charlie company. but she is so fragile tht i'm afraid a puppy as much as she'd enjoy it would tire her out too much.
She is doing so much better. i'mamazed at how quickly she has bounced back.

Topic: RE: My little dog Charlie is ill
It breaks my heart that Charlie is sick, I hope by now she is better.. Friday night I baby sat for my sister. She has a Boston Ter. that is 6 years old . She is black and white. She got a Brown Boston Ter. a couple of weeks ago. She is very odd. We had never seen a brown one with green eyes. I had forgotten how wild puppies are!! She would run and tear up stuff till she got tired and then she'd come and get in the chair with me and the older dog. I love animals and we had so much fun. They live next door to me, so I can see them as much as I want to. Judy

I am so happy for you!! Rachae is a very luck young woman. I work with a lady that is 73, and about 3 months ago her daughter ( around 50 ) stopped to get gas and was carjacked. They shot her in the face and took her car. She was in the hospital for a couple of months. She had a breathing tube and a feeding tube and her jaws wired together. She is out hospital and back at work, but she still has a long way to go. The law didn't catch the man that shot her and he has all her ID and keys.
I will keep you in my prayers. You have been through so much I don't know how you handle all of it!!
Love ya, Judy
