Great to see you all finding your way back...smiling

It is so wonderful to see we at least still have our MODERATOR...makes me feel more hopeful too...smiling..

Marion, it took me some doing to get here, but hey I managed too...winking...it'll take us all a while to get accustomed to this new way of things, thank goodness my hormones aren't out of whack today...lol...

I haven't figured out yet how to put my pic up so will have to browse around later and see if I can get one...The two color choices really makes one think like black or angry...tee hee...maybe brighter ones would have been a little nicer...I don't like black but oh well..C'est la vie...lol..

Vickie, you hang in there girl...you are right night time eating isn't the greatest but you ate healthy foods which is a good choice...I always have a piece of fruit in the evening, as it keeps my blood sugars in control for the night...seems to work good for me...glad you are back..just trying to figure out how to get your email addy...lol...

To everyone, have a super day, don't you dare eat over this new change..we will eventually get used to it...lol..hey if this menopausal, blonde senior can, anyone can...winking....

Hugs and love,

Karen

Marion, now I have it too...lol

Well, I did have a pic but now just have the dotted lines just like you buddy....smiling...I suspect it has something to do with our pics not working...I'm still trying to figure out how to make the printing larger when I type the message..it's so small I have to wear my reading glasses..lol...yet it posts larger as I have it set to larger...

I'm so glad your mom is doing much better...smiling....

Send some of your sunshine my way, gosh darn anyways, July is almost done for, and we've had one , yes ONE, full day of sun...rained every other day...where is my summer...lol...mind you , I am glad it's not super hot either....lol...see just can't please this hormonal, blonde..winking...

Hugs and love,

Karen

Okay, I caved in!!!

Things were going just too well, I am afraid to say, I let my emotions, of which included, frustration, anger, and disappointment to get the better of me....sigh...I have picked my sorry self up and am back on track...I am my own worst enemy....but enough of that!!! Back on the track of freedom....let's do our Freedom ride together.....YES>> I am excited that we didn't lose our contact point (being the boards) beit difficult to figure out somewhat...but the main thing is that we still have it....I feel blessed...Yes, I admit many negative thoughts entered my mind too, and you know what? I asked myself "How's that working for me"?  Well it didn't...I binged..so I have a lot of work still to do....and I hope you all are dealing much better with your emotions than I....Hugs and love,
Karen...(at least the depression is gone..still...smiling..) Just old habits die hard....Die sucker...///

MALEESE YOU HAVE DONE FANTASTIC - 323 TO 276 - WE ARE ALL HERE TO SUPPORT YOU.  AM STILL TRYING TO FIND MY WAY AROUND AND UNDERSTAND THIS NEW SYSTEM BUT WE WILL ALL PROBABLY LOVE IT ONCE WE GET USED TO IT.  WILL PROBABLY LOSE POUNDS TRYING TO FIGURE THIS OUT  AS I STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT EVERYTHING MEANS.

KAREN AND EVERYONE -  SO HAPPY TO BE BACK ON THE BOARD.  SOMETHING REALLY FUNNY HAS HAPPENED TO ME WITH THIS BOARD.  THEY SUGGESTED YOU CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD, WHICH I DID.  I WENT IN TO REVISE MY PROFILE AND DISCOVERED THAT THEY HAD THE INCORRECT BIRTHDATE.  WHEN I ORIGINALLY TRIED GETTING ON BOARD IN JANUARY 2005, IT WOULD NOT WORK FOR ME AND ONE OF THE ONTARIO GIRLS ENDED UP REGISTERING ME BUT DIDN'T HAVE ALL MY INFO.  SHE PUT MY BIRTHDATE AS JANUARY 1, 1970, WHICH MAKES ME 35 - I AM ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED.  HAVE TRIED TO CHANGE IT BY SENDING THEM AN EMAIL BUT NO ONE EVER PAID ANY ATTENTION.  LOOKS GOOD ON PAPER BUT MY FACE IS NOT 35 (lol). 

STILL REALLY FEEL DISORIENTED - WILL KEEP PRACTICING.   LOVE and HUGS, Shirley
