There ya be! 

Thanks y’all :) I have been quiet lately because I have been distracted with therapy. Still, I’m able to pop in everyday to see what and how everyone’s doing. I’m breakin’ free of the calories that bind me :)…. My doctor decided I was losing weight way to fast (3-4#’s a week) so I am upping my calories (boohoo :( :o :) happy dance :) I didn’t have the heart to tell her I just added 3km to my walk last week, which is up to 364km a month now. It is hell on shoes… I’m including nicer desserts and larger portions with my meals… It’s kind of nice to have the leeway to be able to do that and still lose weight as eating this much is not natural to me. I had stopped french cooking all together because of it, but now I am starting wonder if I can’t sneak the occasional cream & butter sauces into my “diet” :) It wasn’t like I was trying to lose weight fast, it just happened to work out this way (it was all that great advice from StomachMonkeys - thank you by the way - the advice on protein was spot on, among other thing). I’m not in the least bit of a rush to meet my goal of 170#, so I’m just enjoying the view from up here, and the good company of FS everyday… FS has become a staple part of my daily routines and I don’t share incursions of my routines lightly as I am easily thrown off emotional balance… my routines are all that hold me together when distractions are on the prowl. Thanks for just being out there. Our collective consciousness makes all the difference when just one of us needs some help. So, everybody, give yourself a big hug, just for hangin’ in there :) Take Care :) DV 

Glad to hear you’re doing well 😎
