Steffy...thank you so much,you made me cry! My Mother still has her days and drives me

but I'm trying to be more patient! OY!
marcij...just said a prayer for Aunt Dot.
Beth...oh your story touched me.You are SO NOT a failure!!!!
I've been over weight since I was about 10 and back in the 70s there were not alot of other kids like me nor clothes that fit.

I suffered through alot of pain,mostly silently, while growing up. After I had Erich I REALLY got HUGE!! Then when my ex left me almost 6 years ago,I lost my appetite,survived on bagels and cherry coke for several months...I know not healthy but I believe my stomach shrunk then.It no longer took as much food to fill me up and I started losing weight.I joined a gym for about a year too.I ended up losing 70 lbs and I'm happy to say I've kept it off.I'm still not skinny ,but I feel so much better.I have after about 4 years of being at a plateau have lost 7 more lbs over the past few months.
You'll be able to do this...just take baby steps... you've taken a BIG step posting here....and the heck with what some chart says!
bear74...wow ...cool...thaT's a lot of money...WTG!!
Tammi67...I think for the dinner at Kona I'd make it a bit earlier.ADRs at 5pm would probably put you going in the gates of
MNSSHP about 6:30pm and it could be really crowded there and making your way down Main Street then.
Okay what's the pumpkin thing all about?!?!
weluvdisney...glad your feeling better! Hope your puppy is too.
Deb....you sound like Super Woman! WOW!! Just reading your post wore me out!
Denise..glad you're feeling better.When I have to do any sort of carry in at Erich's school they always want my chicken and dumplings which are too easy. I use whatever chicken I have,boil it, add a bit of chopped celery and onions,poultry seasoning. When I take the chicken out I add about 8 boullion cubes to really get some flavor.Debone the chicken...and my dumplings...less than $2 bucks in the frozen food section at
Walmart.

They look like big sticks of gum.I break them in thirds.I love this because it's all done in one pot!
Thanks to everyone for the good wishes.I'm hoping to be around here more now that I'm in abetter state of mind!
I need to go...I have laundry and junk to do...don't talk too much,I want to keep up...yeah like that will ever happen!!
Y'all have a good afternoon!
