I do have 10 lbs to lose to reach my goal. :roll:


that would do it.. and then some.. :D :roll:


I tend to loose around 30#

although a significant amount is water... and the hard thing is.. after you want to EAT.. and your body has gone into survival mode.. so it likes to hang onto everything you eat.


And I'm sure your body resorts to eating your muscles through all this as well. :roll:

That's weird. Why would anyone take issue with whatever you wear around your neck? It's your neck! :roll:

Yeah, people are weird. I would expect that sort of thing, but it is odd to hear about someone getting grief about wearing a cross. Almost everyone I notice wearing anything of that sort is wearing a cross.

I'm waiting to get outta here!

Going anywhere good?

I'm exhausted today. To make a long story short, I had a guest last night that stuck around until 11. She talks a lot. So, it was not easy to get to sleep after she left because my brain seemed to be overstimulated or something. I would have given my left foot to stay in bed this morning. :SH

oh, I'm envious. Hunting sux here, there's a bunch of pickers without regular jobs that have kept it cleaned out for months now. I can get better prices on the bay... :x You're lucky to find a battered 220 these days.
