Hi everyone, my internet is running like molasses so I hope I get to post this.

Julie, sorry about the post and I hope you got everything done in your yard you wanted to.

Carol, yes in time your home will sell and I agree it doesn't sound like the home someone who is older would be able to keep up very well.  I find the older I get the more simple I want my life.

Karrie, your energy is showing through your posts.  The rain we have been getting and the warm weather is helping our garden to grow.  I hope you do get a chance to go see those movies you want to.  Life can't be about work all the time.

I have been reading in a blog called Keeping the Weight off this evening.  Its about a woman who used to weigh 385 pounds and she is now down to 194.  She has lost even more but gained some of it back and is trying to get to her goal of 155.  I am enjoying reading it.  She feels she is addicted to sugar and is trying to cut sugar out of her life.  She says that helps her with the cravings.  That reminds me of what Holly from 300 pounds down says about sugar.  I feel that sugar addiction may be part of my problem with food.  I keep thinking if I could just learn how to have a treat and not let that lead to wanting more then it would be okay to have some sugar but the truth is I always want more.  One candy bar makes me want another one and its that way with any sweets for me.  I went to make a salad today to find a drawer of  a lot of rotting food.  I always buy the salad stuff then so many times by the time I try to use it, it has spoiled.  I had enough to make a salad with the things that were good but it makes me mad at myself to waste that food and knowing I let it waste while eating other things that weren't nearly as good for me.  I need to get out to the store tomorrow and buy some food and try to use it up before it spoils.  I am off to watch Extreme Weight Loss so have a good evening.
