I ALWAYS SAY I AM GOING TO DO BETTER ABOUT MY EATING. bonnie i am going to check out the site,

My eating habits, calorie counting, and exercise will have to take a back seat this weekend. My husband and I are going to the State Fair. My favorite is the funnel cake, candy apples, and corn on the cob. Oh, my favorite from my childhood, cotton candy. LoL Will get back on track Monday but will go back to the fair the following Saturday. We just walk, eat, and look. We might go to the tractor pull. LoL A little fun to take you away from the usual stress that happens the majority of the days.

HAVE fun it does sound like fun, i love the cotton candy as a kid and i still do,

[Carenda]

Lois, we did have fun. I'll get cotton candy next weekend. I got candy apples tonight. So many people in NC who attend the state fair have to travel really far. I am only 20-30 minutes away from our state capitol, Raleigh, N.C. Being so close we can go both weekends.

Hi Amy Congratulation on your 200 days.That really is so awesome that you did that. I feel your pain with the weight thing. I am now just realizing just how big I have gotten. I am coming up on 100 days and now I have to put the same effort in getting fit. I know it is hard but I hope we all can help and motivate each to keep moving forward so we can have healthy active lives Happy Happy day to all
