Newbies

polyann, hope you get back to normal quickly. Your health is more important than this plan, so go easy. There’s plenty of time to get started and lots of us here to encourage you when your better. My daughter had a sickness bug last week, small potions of banana and rice became her diet and helped a lot. The bug tried to get me at the new year but I spent a day of sipping flat (without gas) coka cola, strange remedy I know, but all my friends and family use it now after my brother was recommended it from 2 different top cancer doctors in Cambridge area. It helped him after chemo treatments to settle the sickness. So all my family and friends that know about it, swear by it know, stange but proven true!!! Bet Ossie wont agree with this suggest though (sorry Ossie)

Hope your feeling better soon Barbara

IS THERE A WAY TO GO BACK TO JAN 7th, 2013 and enter my beginning weight? I thought I did enter it then, but it’s not there and I’d like to have it on my progress meter, if possible?

Just a note about Stevia. I have found that not all Stevia is created equal, if you know what I mean. Some Stevia brands are much more concentrated than others. One I used measured teaspoon for teaspoon (1 teaspoon of Stevia = 1 teaspoon of sugar) BUT the one I use now (Herbal Select produced by Puresource in Guelph Ontario) requires only a very, very tiny scoop which they provide, (= maybe 1/20 of a teaspoon or less) to get the same sweetness.
I’m from Canada and so I’m not sure whether it would be the same brand in other countries, but it makes sense to check the “dose” to make sure that you are getting the most for your dollar as far as sweetness is concerned. Right?

I guess to an extent I have put my diet on hold. I am unable to take proper exercise until my Sciatica mends itself. I am still taking care over what I eat but that is as far as it goes.
I believe it was Dawn Rosie who is a photographer who got me interested in PHOTOS4ME. I am, there now; http://www.photo4me.com/photographer.asp?OwnerID=10335

LynnM: I did that with the dates Jan 7 through the 13th, and there’s nothing there. I’m wondering if I can still enter it on Jan 7th somehow?

Hi All, just a quick post before heading off to bed. Harbourview your photos are amazing and sorry to hear your still suffering, hope you get some relief soon. Seaborn, Hope you slept well and had no problems borrowing a car again today, fingers crossed you get yours fixed too. I’m what you call a blether (in Scotland) but chatterbox covers it too!!! here in italy I can’t drum up much conversation because my italian is still bad. The wee villiage I live in is just flats and houses build round about 5 fields. Each year more house\flats arrive, more people, and last year they even opened a square in front of my appartment, which has a new bar just opned last weekend. I’m lucky to have lovely country walks round here and 15 minutes on the bike into town, which is a beautiful historic town with quaint walkes. I do still miss scotland though, my heart will forever be torn between here and back home. Hope you have a great day. Ossie, can you pass on my compliments and thanks to you and everyone who’s involved with this site, I love it, I’m still learning how to use it all but I’m so glad I joined. Buon a Notte Tutti, good night all or good morning, good day 🙂
