Home Thread...for the thread homeless :)

Hi there. Just wanted to see if I could build a new home with some new (and hopefully old) friends. I do not wanna be 'homeless' anymore so here I am! This is gonna be a place for friends to meet (hopefully) and talk about anything & everything.

My name is Tracy and I live in Deer Park, Texas. I have been married for 6 years. I was banded in April '07. Got 4 pounds away from goal, quit smoking and gained 46-50 pounds back so I am on my journey again. This time as a non-smoker :w00t:

This is a life change and with it comes lifelong friends...wanna come along for the ride? :blushing:

  • I was trying to say pretty much what Cindy did, but this damn mess of a new layout....I was trying to increase the font size and froze it up----grrrrrr. Not a happy camper with all this nonsense! I

  • Debbie e-mailed me and is confused about the new layout. That seriously pisses me off that this happened. I am going to try everything I can to get a new one on the other and I will let you all know

I'm not a violent person so I won''t be able to do that for you Tracy. You think Plain might be up to it. Or he may like it to much. lol.

I agree Angela!!! If I'm not plugged in on my laptop, this site now drains 30% of my battery in a matter of just MINUTES!!! As soon as we are all over on the other site, I'm outta here!

I'm going to go try to find a post of Shar's and PM her and see if that works. I know Kat was having trouble with it. Don't want to leave Shar behind tho! Maybe Trey will come over too. I'll miss him if he doesn't!

Still not activated on the other site. Hopefully soon.

Suzie, I need to get on the ball w/my weight too. I need to actually work on it. Hard when I feel like crap all the time but that's really no excuse either. Just me being lazy!

Michelle, log in and post. I never received a confirmation email, but I am activated. Try it!

Evening everyone,

I'm going to try to send this post, although I'm not sure what I did before. I haven't even read anything today, just came to where it says add reply, so I'm giving it a try.

Tracy, I wanted to say that I'm glad your mother admitted that you were right about your sister. How many times have I heard people say they just ignore the elephant in the room. Your mom shouldn't even have had to witness one of her children having a meltdown.

I hope everybody's doing well. I'm gonna try this again. Wish me luck!

Deb

Hey Debbie, glad to see you finally got to post. I hope things are going well for you.

Not much going on here, usual daily stuff. Ginna try to get my personnal taxes paid today, well maybe.

Have a good one.

Hey Deb!! It's good to hear from you!!!! Your post made it!

I am bouncing back and forth between this site and the other one.

I am not looking forward to DH working nights for the next 3 nights. Oh well. At least he's got a job!!!! :)

Have a great day!!

Struggling...this time of the year it is hard for all of us. I have started today back on my rule following regimen. I gained 6 of my 15 back. At least it isnt the whole 15 right?

Ashley, I am sorry you are cramping. How long have you been off the pill?

Kat & Jenn-I need to call my dr office and ask for a diff medication. I know he will want me to come in the office but I just cant afford it right now. Ho Ho Ho, ya know?

Have a great day everyone! Remember to drink plenty of water, walk further than necessary and protein first!! :D

Angela-I did not get a confirmation that I could post there, I was just able to one day (Just like Cindy). Go give it a shot.

Deb-is there anything I can do to help you transisition? Just hollar! It isnt the same without you!

Tracy...I've been off the pill since September. My cycles have been regular since then. We used Pre Seed this time during ovulation to see if it would help us in ttc. I never cramp after ovulation and I don't have lower back problems either. Ugh! This sucks. lol

Hey. Wanted to post a reminder that starting tomorrow we are starting our challenge. From Dec. 1st to the 30th. We will try to lose weight. You can set an amount if you want, the idea is to just get thru the holidays without gaining anything. So, Good luck.

Bitterly cold here today and we had some snow flurries. The sun is supposed to come out in a few hours. But the tems will still stay down. Brrrrrr.

Hi Strangers!

How's everybody doing? The changes to the site kinda threw me. Holiday was super busy and I had to work. This Sunday is going to be the third Thanksgiving dinner for my hubby and I. I think I don't want to see another turkey until this time next year. Put up our Christmas tree Sunday, and most of our decorations.

Talk more later, just want to hi and I'm still kicking.

Shar :blink:

ps... I'm in on the weightloss challenge that starts tomorrow.

Shar, have you been getting our emails. I hope you know that we have all moved.

I haven't received any updates from any of the threads I post in for about a week! What's up with that??

Well, I gained 1.5 pounds since Thanksgiving.... Not too bad considering, I guess. LOL I drank a considerable amount of wine Thanksgiving day... I wonder if that had anything to do with it because I really didn't eat very much....

Just checking in. Still can't post on the other site. E-mailed them this morning just to check on it.

Still pretty sick.
