Thank you, thank you all, for this wonderful newsgroup!

I finally got rid of the weight I gained after breaking my ankle back in Sept. I was trying to
lose .8 this week to make it an even 40 lbs. but lost 2.6 instead to make it 41.8. I couldn't be
happier!

Again, I tested the limits of the flex point program and found that it works! Some of my friends
came over to celebrate my birthday last week and I thought I had it all sewed up in that one of
them was making a diet anglefood cake.....figured I could stay on points if I just had a small
slice. Only another one brought chocolate mousse as well! ( why she did that is another story????)
But since I was right on program all the rest of the week, the half of a mousse ( yes, antlers,
and all) that I consumed still fit into my flex points!

My birthday was January 8th, and I have had 2 birthday events, with two more still to come.
Hopefully, with careful planning, my flex points will get me through just in case more chocolate
somehow makes its way to my door ( and er....mouth).

Thanks again for all your support,

And I'd also like to thank the ACADEMY........my agent, husband, children, and ALL my fans

I couldn't have done it without you!

Cheers,

Billie ( started at 207, now 165.2, 5.3 more to go for the current challenge which will take me to
159.9.....YES!)

Wow Billie, you're doing so great. Happy belated birthday! I'm going to be testing out the birthday
cake theory this weekend too as it's my BD on Saturday. If it was just DH and I we wouldn't bother
with a cake, but you can't deprive a 3 year old of blowing out candles! We'll just get the smallest
cake we can, or cupcakes, so there's not lots of leftovers.

Ol' broad?? You're only brave because you know that I don't know where you live....yet!

Mom & DS made a cake today, hope they don't go and buy one tomorrow, although the purchased ones
here are really good.....I sure the hell don't need it though! DH took me out for dinner tonight,
first time we've been out alone for over a year! It was nice and quiet, dinner was good, we both had
steak. I had a few prawns on mine and DH hates them so he just had steak & potato. No dessert!! I'd
call that an NSV.

Thanks for the birthday wishes, even though you did call me an ol' broad.

Thank you, thank you all, for this wonderful newsgroup!

I finally got rid of the weight I gained after breaking my ankle back in Sept. I was trying to
lose .8 this week to make it an even 40 lbs. but lost 2.6 instead to make it 41.8. I couldn't
be happier!

Again, I tested the limits of the flex point program and found that it works! Some of my
friends came over to celebrate my birthday last week and I thought I had it all sewed up in
that one of them was making a diet anglefood cake.....figured I could stay on points if I just
had a small slice. Only another one brought chocolate mousse as well! ( why she did that is
another story????) But since I was right on program

Thanks for the birthday wishes, even though you did call me an ol' broad.
