Be careful which model you bid on. They do make the cheaper ones less sturdy, and thats why we went for the extra $$$. Check out their website and compair. Good luck !!!

Good Morning, Can't play long b/c I'm at work WAAAAAAAAAH!!! Never got to clean my car yesterday, the day just flew by. But I did cook what I had to. This sucks.... first day is so gloomy and feels like you never had a vacation lol. What a tease. How is everyone this fine MOANDAY!! lol.

Venting and support needed
I agree with you Penni, one day at a time is easier said than done. I can't take it one day, I have to take it one meal, each hour on the hour. If I think about the day in whole it drives me nuts. You are in my prayers. BTW, I did nutrasystem in 1992 (right b/4 my 10 year class reunion) and did very good on it you will too.

My fill is gone, and I'm huuuungry
Anne, this is exactly what I said to my doctor, even though I'm losing weight I'm hungry every stinkin 2 hours. Its really driving me nuts but he refuses to give me a fill and I refuse not to try to lose and eat healthy just to get a fill. So what I do, and I believe this is what saves me. Do not eat past 7. If you need something have a hot diet coco or tea. For during the day and inbetween meals, have some low calorie Soup. There's something about the smell and it being hot that soothes the beast. I read this in Volumetrics and it does help. Have some low cal picking foods handy, veggies and ff dips help me too. It seems that my hungriest times now (I used to be a night time eater) is around 10 am - 6 pm where as before it was 6 pm - 2 am. Keep busy, when the kids are playing...clean something. Just keep busy, go outside for fresh air if you need to. Being on the PC helps me too....keeps my mind busy and hands If you want my email addy let me know, we can chat that way during the day b/c tomorrow I go back to work. Next vacation December 2006 OY VEY!!! haaaaaa. Good luck chicky, you'll be okay. Hugs

Good Morning Happy Sonday everyone. You know I still have not cleaned out my car lol, so today I have to or else tomorrow when I'm driving to work I'll be mad at myself heheh. DD needs her bath this morning and its off to a birthday party. I'm going to make a huge batch of tuna salad for lunches/dinner, and probably a meatloaf, some noodles. Usually I don't make side dishes and we just eat meat and veggies. Betty if I don't cook on Sundays, we wind up eating Cereal for dinners during the week. DH works to hard physically, I'd feel guilty that he isn't getting a hot meal, plus its a load off my shoulders knowing dinner is 90% done at night. And I have little time at night b/c DD has homework (yep, in pre-k they give homework) and baths, plus cleaning the kitchen after dinner. And NOW I'm gonna try to fit in some walking on the dreadmill when i get home. If weather is nice, I'll try to do it at lunch time but I'm usually to lazy or I don't want to get sweaty and sit at work ya know ick. lol. How is everyone today? whats everyone doing?

Total Gym or equivilent?
My DH has one. He got the upper model and paid about $1,100 for it a few years ago. Its the longer bench b/c he got it hoping I would do it (I'm taller lol). He loves it and uses it alot. Its nice b/c you can fold it up and put it away. Depending on what you want to do, there are different settings/levels to set it on. My 4 year old even goes on it lol. I'm sure you'll get both responses love/hate. Good luck with your decision, but asking around is the best way to go.

Im a chicken
I'm not going to lie, the recovery room was the hardest. I had alot of pain from the gas they fill you with (thank GOD for drugs lol). My second day was better, I took percocet, but on the third day I was done with the pain killers. Went grocery shopping on the 5 day Each day I felt better and better. Everyone's different.

Hope I didn't hurt myself...
Hi Kim and welcome to bandland. Well I'm not sure if toast/bread is on the mushies menu. I really can't give you any advice that you already don't know (chew well and go slow). Good luck !!
