Best of luck with your BIG transition to CA! That is such a big move. I know you will be happy closer to your family. My family lives out of state and they count the months until we cam move back.

Toni,

I'm sure that I have shoes as well as clothing for your friend. I've sent out a notice to our membership as well. I've also sent you my contact information so that we can coordinate getting things to her. While we don't have clothing that will fit the husband, I hope that someone we know might. 

Regards,

Hi Toni,

Absolutely! As a matter of a fact, I'm sure that I have some things that will fit her and would be glad to make them available. I'll PM you with my personal contact info so that we can make arrangements.

Barbara, I need your help. My former co-worker just sent me a email telling me her house burned down Sunday. She lost everything including the clothes that I just gave her. She is size 18-20 and her husband wears a 38-32 pants and a medium shirt. Can you check with some of the members to see if they have anything they are willing to donate? I'm talking about the people that have lost past that size. I appreciate your help.

Hello Everyone, my former co-worker's home and car was burned down on Sunday, January 15th. She and her husband lost everything! They are in a hotel right now but they are in desperate need of clothes and shoes. I gave her all of the clothes that I wore in her size last month and she lost them all in the fire. If you live in the Raleigh, North Raleigh, Wake Forest, Zebulon, Knightdale area and you have clothes size 18-20 that you are willing to donate, she would appreciate it. Her husband wears size 38/32 slacks and medium shirts. Her shoe size is 9 1/2 and his shoe size is 11. Please reply to this post if you have anything you are willing to donate. I really appreciate it. P.S. She had bypass surgery 2 years ago and lost over 100 lbs. I don't want her to start stress eating so I'm doing everything I can to help her. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm so happy to hear you are having a upswing in life. When I got on here last year I know you were having some really really hard times. I'm just so happy for ya! I think getting some sun, get a good nap (if you think that will help), and some moving around will get some fresh blood 'a flowing! Good luck!

Today I've been busy with doctor appointments. I'm praying I got everything worked out today. Nothing really bad, I'm just trying to get the right doctor. It's sometimes hard to do out here in the east.

I dropped a pound this morning. I'm back to my pre Thanksgiving weight. Thank goodness. Next goal is to get down below 210. I can do this! I'm going to do this!

(((Toni,)))

Thanks you for your lovely, supportive words. It will probably be at least June, if not later before we move, so hopefully, we will see you before we leave. 

Warmly,

Barbara you will be missed so much. I know I haven't made the meetings due to a sports active kid, but I love all of our interactions. You have taught me so much. I totally understand the need to move since our family is out of state as well. Take care and know that we will miss you not being here with us.

Good morning,

Have a great day off!!!  When I feel like that I go back to the basics, drinking my protein shake and broth and eating light things like veggies and fruit...

I have to work tonight, 7p to 7a, so I'm up doing a couple things and then back to bed for me...  My challenge is always the same, I eat to stay awake (and I know it), so what to eat that is satisfying and will give me energy also... 

Anyway, have a great day, do something FUN!!!
