OMG - y'all are making me blush so much I can't even quote you! DD's been asking me to post those for such a long time but I was so hesitant. Thank you so much for all the kind words; one in particular - I never thought anyone would ever use the word "hot" to describe me. Miss Kitty asked how I felt; I feel absolutely fantastic. I had several health problems (incl. asthma & disc disease in my back) that are pretty much non-existent now. I never would have imagined that I could reinvent myself at age 43 and be healthier than I was as a teenager. I've said it before, but if the undisciplined, formerly lazy me can do this, anyone can. The benefits are endless and I just hope and pray I can maintain the healthy lifestyle (and I'm thinking if I've been able to keep it up through the divorce negotiations, I can probably be successful in the long run as well!) Thanks again - I'm happy to inspire but I am so touched by your kindness and support - it keeps me going.
P.S. I was going to get my my hair cut tomorrow and do something radical, but I guess I'll just get a little trim - LOL!

Congrats to Beachmom, too. I'm back to a good-enough weight (down from my high) but have 10 lbs to go before I'm in the "normal range" as defined by one of the websites posted on this thread. All I want to be is normal... Will losing weight guarantee that I'll be normal?

If it does, I'm not going to do it. Being normal is no funn!

OK gulls. So I saw my doctor today and he is could tell that I am not cheating on my yeast free diet because I am 15 lbs lighter than when I started this diet. However, he is quite upset that I have not made an effort to stop smoking and he rags me about this every month. I decided that I need to stop for my health. He suggests the patch or taking some kind of happy pill (which I am not keen on any kind of pills) to help me quit. I figured I have had the motivation to maintain this diet, but the smoking is a physical addiction, so I think the patch may be the way to go. I will need motivation, so please help. This will be my New years Resolution.

Use the patch and pat on it like I did to make sure it's still there!!!!
I was so addicted to nicotine, everybody from the "old days" just can't believe I don't smoke. It was the first thing I did when my eyes opened and the last thing I did before I went to sleep. I smoked like 2 packs a day at my worst....I love the new me. I feel so free. It took a while to quit cracking the window when I got in the car and I would catch myself fumbling around in my purse digging for them. That is so sad. :roll:

I want to be free. :clap_1: I don't want to smell like an ashtray anymore. I don't want to hear my sister yell at me because the baby smells like cigarattes after I hold him. I don't want to run out the door in my pajamas and a coat because I am out of cigarettes.
