Hi Joanne,
On the greek yogurt question, it has great protein!  Their are a few brands out there.  Acme carries at least two.  It tastes  and looks like sour cream so I add SF strawberry jam and a equal packet to it.  I also use it in place of sour cream.  I also have used it in protein shakes to up the protein.
Its good stuff!

Rob , Thanks for the secret. I went to the gym for 2 hours today and I am starting with a personal trainer on Tuesday. Then doing a boot camp. I am hoping this jump starts my weightloss. Do you know anything about Greek Yogart ? It was recommended to me at the gym. See you lighter. Joanne

Hey Joanne,
No. 1 lurker here.  Hope everything is going well with you and Debbie.  I told her that plastic is the most painful thing that anyone ever goes through.  Once the drains are out, things should get better.  Glad to hear your exercising.  I missed the May meeting at Victory because of work, and I was suppose to do another smoothie presentation.   So I think I'll be doing it in June.
I did lose 4 pounds in May.  Hopefully I don't lose anymore.  My new secret formula is dropping Crystal Light and replacing it with White Tea.  May not work for everyone, but it certainly works for me.  Check out http://www.whiteteacentral.com/whiteteaweightloss.html
See you in June...
Rob

Hello Ladies!

I tried to post yesterday and the darn computer froze up!
Kudos to both of you for exercising.  Can't seem to do that and Dr. Peters said any more weight that comes off of me will be from exercising. Ugg.  I don't think I'll be loosing any more.

Until Victory... Have a great day!
Judy

Hi Joanne,

Hope everything goes well with Debbie.  Good luck trying to revive the Delaware Board, I don't know if CPR will even help.
LOL, lots of lurkers, no partakers!

Have a Great Day!
Judy

Good morning Delaware and friends ! It is right muggy in Lower Slower Delaware today. I have a very busy day ahead. This morning it is get the kids off to school, get dinner in the crock pot and head to Debbie's house. I have to do her packings and then we are off to D.C. I asked her last night if she wanted to pack a bag in case they kept her. If looks could kill ! She said NOT FUNNY MOM ! I was just kidding. She is doing good but they are going to have to do some debreeding. The nurse is recommending a wound vac. and thinks they might take her into surgery to do the debreeding. I think they will do it in the office. Hopefully she will get out her stapples and drains today too. We will be back in time to do group tonight. I went to the gym yesterday for 2 hours. My legs are a little sore today. Hopefully today we can beat yesterdays replies. Thanks Leslie ! I feel so alone here! See you lighter. Joanne
