I started with LA WL Feb. 07 - I weighed in at 223. I'm doing okay - counselers say I'm "on track". But last week was horrible - I felt hungry all the time, yet I gained 3 pounds in one week - AACCKKK!!! I almost didn't do my weigh-in Wednesday. But, made myself and discovered I lost 5.3 pounds!!!!! And to think, I almost cheated major big time because I was so down about the gain.

I am married - in August for 35 yrs. We have 4 grown children; 4 grandchildren. I also have two shih tzu and an African Grey parrot. I do scrapbooking and Bunka - a Japanese Embroidery. And I play games on Pogo.
