Re: Any 50 year old members out there?? Come on in and say hi

I guess I'm one of the lucky ones....I never was a big fruit eater so I really don't miss it or ever crave it. Once in a great while I would have an apple but unless it was bing cherry season, watermellon or strawberry season I never bought or ate fruit myself. I always have oranges, apples and bananas in the house for my husband because he loves fruit.

Well, it's almost the end of the month and I've managed to do nothing and loose nothing this month -- but I haven't gained so it's a wash I guess. I need to get my mind back in the game and soon!

Had my eye apointment this morning - my bifocal needed to be stronger and my glasses were 3 years old so I got a new pair of bifocals and 1 pair of sunglasses (no bifocal in them). Ordered the glasses tonight - hopefully will have them in about a week.

Hope everyone has a good weekend!!

Hi Karen and welcome to the 50+ forum. About your ticker, if you go the the technical thread in the Miscellaneous forum, they will tell you how to get it the way you want it.

Kathygirl, I'm like you with the pictures but right now my daughter is on her way home for a visit and I'm going to have her show me how to do it. I have trouble figuring out what format they are supposed to be in.

I hope you all have a great day. I'm good so far.

You will first need to upload the pictures in the ADBB Gallery:

Atkins Diet Pictures

or in Photobucket:

Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

For Photobucket, you'll need to create an account.

After the pictures are uploaded, just send me a PM and I'll help you upload them in your post.

Hi all!

I'm focusing today on getting back to where I was a few months ago and even though I have company from out of state who do nothing but cook and eat, I think I can survive them. Wish me luck!

hi!

Re: Any 50 year old members out there?? Come on in and say hi

hi Peytonn...glad to have you here.

Nyna, how are you doing with your eating? I got up this morning all stuffed up (from the smell of stain in the house I suppose) and eyes running. I should do something today but I'm going to take a day off and let my old muscles rest. My arms ache so badly from 4 days of staining woodwork and doors...plus moving furniture from our bedrooms to the basement. We've been sleeping in the family room for 2 nights....it just just easier to take the bed out and get it out of the way early so I didn't have to keep moving it to get the work done.

Have a good week!!

Hope I can join you over 50s. I am 63 so some of you seem really young to me.
I started five days ago and am down 7.5 pounds.
The induction forum has been a huge help with hints and food ideas.

Glad to have both of you ladies join us. Come and chat about anything and everything.

Re: Any 50 year old members out there?? Come on in and say hi

Thanks, imagood1, you are always a help to everyone on the boards. I am trying to see this as a challenge to find things that are legal, especially when I eat out. I have limited that as much as possible but sometime it is unavoidable for business lunches.
This is officially the end of my first week but I weighed two days ago so will wait till next week for a two week total. I am going to measure today though.
Thanks again,
bb

Welcome ladies! It's always nice to see new people come to chat.

I've been doing really well lately and I think a lot of it has to do with the weather. I was just moping around the house during the snow storms but now I can get outside more. It's amazing what sunshine does for the spirit!

I just watched a Dr. Daniel Amen on our PBS station talking about diet and health and he made a lot of sense. He recommends a low carb/higher protein diet but it's not exactly Atkins, which I prefer, but his ideas are a lot like Atkins and I may buy his book just to check it out. Has anyone else ever heard of him?
