Topic: Good Morning Mississippi
It's still a little chilly this morning, but my daughter and are planning on driving to Collins today to visit a Pumpkin Maze. It sounds like fun and definitely different. Then tonight we are going to Lucedale to see Casting Crowns in concert. I am looking forward to a fun and relaxing day.

I hope the rest of you have a great weekend too!

Topic: RE: questions I know you can answer!
Don't blame you there. I had to give up pretty much all reheated meats. I can not eat left over beef..... It is just too dry. I dont really like beef anymore so it is not a problem. I also have trouble with leftover chicken. Chicken in general if it is dry ( I do however live off of it.) I have learned where to buy it when eating out and how to cook it at home without making my tummy mad!! Have a good day!

if only this was still available to us today...well I suppose it is if you go to some third world country and are careless.

I think I am going to buy some rum flavoring tomorrow and tinker with my syrup, rum flavoring, cinnamon and bananas and see if I can come up with a decent version of Bananas Foster. I will let you know how it turns out. YUMMY I hope. I am thinking it woudl be good over soem cottage cheese and NO, I am not pregnant..promise!!!!

Hey sweat pea!! I am right there with you on the thick slimy salava and I am 2 1/2 years out. It happens mostly when I eat certian types of meat or if I eat too fast. It is a form of dumping I believe. Not real sure why. I was told by the time a person feels thirsty, you are already partially dehydrated. My kidneys scream at me too. My back hurts a lot of the time when I am needing fluids. My skin also gets really dry. We just can't hold enough at one time to keep from dehydrating I guess, no professional answer...sorry. My doc told me 30 minutes after eating, start drinking and don't stop until 30 minutes before eating and to do this all day. As far the nasty breath, there are some great sugar free peppermints at wal-mart. Give them a try. Be proud of that breath...lol. It means youa re burning fat! Youa re in ketosis! Congrats on the weight loss by the way. You are doing AWESOME!!!!

That;s amazing.  I'm wearing clothes I haven't been able to wear in some time myself!  I took my measurements and tomorrow (which is one month) I want to take them again, just to see. 

I'm proud of you!
