I guess that's why we were hardly ever sick.

Sometimes we discount what the older generation tells us because we think we know it all but they really do know what they are talking about.

Wow Erika,
This really brings back memories. As far back as I can remember, my mother gave us each a tablespoon of cod liver oil each morning. We'd be lined up and she would dish it out to us. Lord, I hated that stuff. But we weren't sick with the flu that I can remember, just the regular childhood diseases. Funny how we are going back to the 'old' ways.

L&F - this is exactly how I feel. "If we stay the same weight that week...at least we didn't gain." I have to live in real life, with food all around me during the holiday. For the most part, I am not tempted at all, but sometimes it's OK for 'me' to go offplan just a little. I just have pick my battles and my food choices correctly.
We are going on vacation to my favorite place, the Beach Club at Disney in January. I've already made my dining reservations and the majority will not be on plan. But I know this going in and will try to make good choices and will get back on plan when we return. Plus walking about 10 miles a day really makes you hungry.

I would've done just fine, but it was timed...... (Atleast I know that "right click" doesn't mean to type out the word "click" any more...if someone tells me to right click ) I learned a lot, but felt that the expectations were a little high for a beginners class....atleast, I won't be taking anything even more advanced!!!

OMG!! write click!!! lol,
Sorry L&F, this one had me in stitches.

I'm so proud of you!!! I'm sure that you'll make the "better" choice!!! In fact.....I betcha' when we eat how whe have been....the other way wouldn't taste as good as it did before. I bet that our taste buds have changed. Also, I know that if I ate a bowl full of noodles...I'd feel like sh$t!!!!!

It's true though!!!! So, now do you see why when the class description said, "Beginner"....I was lost? I was a "true" beginner. The course description said little or no computer experience!!! That was me!!! Then, she had us saving files, making: links, watermarks, word art, book marks, charts, etc..., not to mention power point presentations and fancy excel worksheets with all of the confusing functions!!! All semester, I've thought..."What the He11...this isn't for beginners with no experience!!!".
