Hello everyone! I'm in the middle of week 3 and I thought I better start one of these journals to keep myself in line. I tried to start one a few weeks ago and I screwed it up somehow so I'm starting over! Here's a little info on me. My name is Mary Rose, age 50. My husband and I are doing this together. We both have hit a 50 age crisis! Him more than myself. Ha! Sleep apnea, HBP, family diabetes, etc. I've had HBP for 23 years and I don't think that will change much. We had a major loss in our life 26 months ago when we lost our 20 year old son. He was in an auto accident and he died from injuries he sustained in that accident. I'd say we started the uncontrollable eating, eating out..I'm sure you know what I mean. SO..here we are. Thank God we're doing this together! It's so much easier. My goal is 54 lbs. and his 80 lbs. A NEW LIFE!

Memorial weekend was very hard on us. I did okay but it was hard! He didn't fair as well. He was the cook at our nephew's graduation party and you can only imagine how that went. He's been a snacker while he cooks from way back. He's definitely paying for it now. We weigh in tonight and he's not thinking it's going to go well. I don't think I've lost my 2 lbs but I don't think I've gained either. We'll see.

I'll be back because I've got a long way to go!!

morning, rosie!

if you're only up .8 then that's not too bad after those heavy foods late in the evening. sorry your hip's hurting, though, rosie. have you seen a doc about it?

Hi Mel!


Yes, I feel very lucky that the scale wasn't up any more than it was.

Hi Rosie,


Up .4 huh, I wouldn't be too worried about that.

hey, rosie! sorry you and cecil were up a bit. it's really a minimal gain, though. so i wouldn't sweat it.

so you think your center might close? are you at a pure center or lawl? so far i haven't gotten any news mine's closing. pretty soon, though, i have to decide whether to buy more weeks or not . . . so i'll be watching carefully to see if there's any hint the center's in trouble. i don't buy the bars or anything, just weeks, so i guess i can go it on my own, if i have to . . . i really like the accountability factor, though. i would really miss that.
