I started taking the ACV today too. I didnt put any sweetner in. I almost thought of putting some tobasco in with it so I could pretend its cold hot and sour soup.

IxtapaCheryl, I've been reading your posts, and am inspired by your loss. I'm so happy that you're joining our thread.

WOE. I'm looking forward to your opinions and advice.

I'm still gaining water weight. I cant figure out why. Hoping the ACV will turn things around for me.

Jean, next time you're in WA look me up.

I also got some exercise in.

Yep, made good choices today and feel really good today.
I'm happy for you....Toots-A-Lot!!!!

Without mentioning an old show ("Name That Tune"), on a serious note , I would like to add that I am really excited for you...I mean how you're making the "better choices" to making yourself feel better!!!

Look back to Tooter...

Nothing ever seems to be "perfect", but atleast you can enjoy the weather while sitting in traffic.

Well....I accomplished alot today. I got all of the phone calls done, my running around done, and made reservations for Sunday night in Minnesota.

Tommorow I will pack our suitcase, load the car, and try to sleep. Sometime...1,2,3 in the morning, on Sunday, we will leave. I'm not looking forward to this trip, as it will be alot of driving in a short amount of time.

Jean, next time you're in WA look me up.
Pear, you are near the Seattle area, aren't you? We stayed at a friends beach cottage at Ocean Shores on the coast. I had never seen it rain side ways before!

It certainly is a beautiful state. My friend told me tonight that it has snowed there in Spokane quite a lot this past month. He is coming out here in February and says he is looking forward to the break.

We travel back and forth about every three months because neither of us is willing to live where the other is. I can't take the cold and he doesn't want to live in this metropolis.

We are having a storm move in now as I type, the wind is picking up and it is raining. I've battened down the hatches and people have been picking up sandbags today.

Good luck with the ACV, I've heard it can do wonders. Have you often had trouble with water weight? Let us know how you do.

Oh, and thank you for the invitation, I would love to meet you.

Jean

I am really impressed, when you make up your mind to do something you go for it. That is how you accomplish goals and I have every reason to believe you will succeed.

Be safe on your journey, I will say a little prayer for you.

It could be the trip....but it seems like I can "feel" a difference when my body is in this losing cycle. I sweat more, my stomach has this kinda' funny feeling, and I am jittery...it's hard to explain.....

Do you guys experience this?
