I have been working diligently everyday on reading emails I receive and responding to them. I was up to close to 300 (computer problems) - I am happy to report that I am now down to about 86.

I respond each day to all the important emails and the rest seem to build up.

When I wake up tomorrow and turn on my computer it will be up to about 98 and then on Monday, after I ready and responded to Sunday's emails - I don't even want to think about it.

Most of the emails are related to professional organizations I belong to and I feel I must read all of them - more of a compulsion I think then a necessity.

Anyway, I am down to a double digit number.

Attended a great card party at a dear friend's house and met lots of new people! Very nice evening.

Had a great weekend at the Lake cottage (in Canada). We had 10 people up for the long weekend, lots of partying. Not as much fun as being in TV, but not so bad.

Now I'm like Nonie and diving into a diet. Well, actually, I'm contemplating a diet. Not quite the same thing. Nonie, keep me motivated!

Nonie ditto - it is going to get worse in the coming 10 days. I have to evaluate 3 Luaus and 3 dinner cruises. Luaus will be easy, dinner cruises - that is another story.

Hey Nonie, I think Mariab is on the right track! And it will definitely help you fill out those sags you're worried about.

I didn't do anything good for myself today! In fact I'm mad at myself! In fact, I'm not talking to myself! Well, said Scarlett, tomorrow is another day.

Nonie, I lost some fat but it found me again. People say " Sam, you don't have wrinkles."
Guess why??? Hint: I stopped by Sweetbay tonight. Fairies had placed ice cream, oreo's and M&M's in my cart. You really have to watch out for those little rascals. Now I have to eat that stuff because "waste not, want not." Anyway, a little chub puffs out the wrinkles..and the thighs...and the batwings...

Even tho I was at an older age than recommended,
I had my first colonoscopy screening yesterday. :yikes:

So after the light liquid eating before, and the fact that the drugs made me sick afterward (as drugs usually affect me), I decided today is a great day to start a better eating plan.
And I already feel lighter... (Mostly probably because my pipes are cleaned out). :bow:

So I will do my best to be a good girl and eat healthier. And lose weight...
I figure if Rhonda can quit smoking (GO RHONDA!), maybe I can do this for myself.

Good luck, Mint. Down here everyone wants to go out to eat or prepare all these fabulous meals for you.

Minty,

If I can do it anyone can! Ronda has truly inspired me. I have cut back on carbs and my clothes are starting to hang, of course so is everything else under my clothes! LOL

Nonie,
Low carbs always works best for me too.
But during this move, I'll kinda have to take what I can get.
But will eat alot less than the norm, then start the low carbs maybe by next week...
And will be extremely busy getting moved in and settled. That'll help.
And Mr. Mint will be in NC for awhile, so I won't have to cook much, just for myself...

We are going to Cancun for a week Nov. 1st,
and I'd like to at least look socially acceptable by then...
So I have 3 months to work on it...
