          Hello Marvelous Marchers!

          WOW :shocked: What a busy day today! Nice to see such a great turnout for the new month.

          Lav - Your granddaughter Lily is so lovely. I know she will bring lots of love and joy to your life.

          Although February did help me focus on getting back into exercise and running, I had a dreadful time with cravings for SWEETS. I need to seek out alternatives to satisfy this sweet tooth of mine. Any suggestions???

          I woke up this morning to the tunes of a singing robin - what a nice surprise for the 1st day of March. Spring is on it's way and I, for one, am looking forward to kissing winter goodbye.

          Nice to see several new faces here, and, the 'oldtimers' as well - you all know who you are!

          Wishing you all peace this evening.....

              hey all my wonderful M3ers!!

              Just a few quick replies and then off to bed as it's very late!

              John, I started my supps again a few weeks ago and I FINALLY have stopped the insane sugar cravings!! I was in the store this evening to get my vitamuffins and looked at the whoopie pies and felt NOTHING!! and that was after I thought they were out of the chocolate muffins (found them in another place). I'm taking L-Glut 1000mg 2x/day, GABA 500 mg/day and magnesium along with my regular vits and mins.

              Dew-how sweet!! I hope it works out for you!!

              I'll try to catch up more tomorrow. Have a great trip home Chill! I bet your dog will be over the moon to see you!!

                Another old timer logging on today! Happy humpday one and all.

                Lav, Lily is so gorgeous, I wonder what sense she makes of this crazy world! If only everyone could be as peaceful as she looks.

                I'm off out shopping later. The sun is actually shining and I can see some (not a lot) blue in the sky. Please let spring be finally here, its been such a long winter. I don't want to use the yak trax again for a very long time!

                Have a good day everyone, hopefully I'll get back later to catch up on posts as daughter out working tonight so I can have my laptop to myself!

                  Good morning everyone from another 29 year old!!!

                  Frosty night here but beautiful sunshine, today. There is a real feel of spring. The crocus's and buttercups are in bloom, so nice to see a bit of colour in the garden again.

                  Lily is beautiful, thank you for sharing with us Lav.

                  One of my daughters is off sick today so have not much computer time. Happy hump day one and all.

                    Good morning to all!

                    Lots of posts, lots to think about. Rusty, it is odd that my friend makes a big deal about me not wanting to have a martini with her, but I guess my drinking has been a huge part of who I am. Isn't that sad? I have also had that reaction from my brother, who loves to drink with me, and clearly is on the edge himself. After all, it runs in the family. For generations. I just think it is good to talk about it, although hard and embarrassing.

                    Chill, I think everything we do is judgemental. Let me explain. Getting up in the morning and taking a shower is judging that we value being clean. Lots of people don't shower for days. Going to work is a judgement, a choice. We value paying our bills and earning our keep. I guess if it is negative judgement about others it can be nonproductive, but I think a large part of this MWO journey is making judgements. And it is OK. What do we value, how do we want to be to ourselves and others. All judgements. And everything and anything is not OK. I am on a rant, sorry. Life is about choices, daily, hourly, every second, so make good choices, and judge yourself kindly. I think when we get old and look back at our lives, we will value kindness and giving above all else.

                    Lav, it is fine for you to be angry with YB, and you do an excellent job of trying to move on. After all, we can only control ourselves. Baby Lily is a doll, how fun. So much to look forward to.

                    I have to get moving, have a great day, AF.:h

                      Star - good point about passing judgement and being judgemental. Is it maybe the fact that we have weaned all the AL out of our bodies that we are actually making sense when we talk now but at the same time, thinking about what we are actualy saying?

                      For myself, I find that I need to be a little more tolerant - don't know it's age or the big M (and ladies - I think you all know which big M I am talking about), but I find I have very little patience these days find myself getting annoyed at things that just really don't matter.

                      Enough rambling - it's HUMP DAY and I think spring is in the air! Only supposed to get to 50 here today but the sun is out and I'll take it.

                      BYW - what the heck is YB? sometimes the acronyms throw me

                      Have a great day everyone!

                        Good morning all!

                        Jolie -- I have to laugh -- I keep getting thrown by the acronyms too! What the heck is YB and the other I can't figure out and have felt too stupid to ask -- IMO???

                        Okay, off to hump day!

                          I hit post too soon. Sorry!

                          Anyway, referring to Pap's post I had run out of the all in one powder and I started eating like a maniac -- everything in sight and especially sugar. I don't know if it's psychological, but I really think the supps help a lot. And exercise would certainly help in my case, too! (haha)

                          I got my new cannister in last night and am starting back today. And I might add everyone around me (office, home etc.) has had at least one bad cold this year and I had nothing! I attribute that to the All in One.

                          Have a great day all!

                            Good Wednesday morning Marchers!

                            mylife, I am sorry - YB or Yard Boy is the name I have given my emotionally unstable husband of 37 years who ran off last April. He returns only to cut grass, etc.

                            Speaking of judgmental - YB takes the prize on that one, believe me. I went so far last weekend as to tell him - 'I have worked hard to forgive myself for all my past sins and as far as I know God & everyone else have forgiven me - so why can't you?' Of course he has no answer for that. He's never forgiven anyone for anything, ever. He chooses to remain cold & alone.

                            The sun is out this morning & temps are heading to the mid-fifties I hear Jolie

                            If anyone needs eggs please stop by. My hens gave me 21 yesterday - they are nearly in full production these days as I have 26 birds :H

                            Have a great Humpday everyone!

                              Morning Marchers!

                              Lav - that pic of Lily makes me want to scoop her up in my arms and hug her!! Beautiful baby!

                              Jolie - I think I have made it through the big "M" and during that time i did have little patience and everything seemed to tick me off. This too shall pass! hang in there.

                              I found myself thinking of Lent today and what I will be giving up this year. Since AL is no longer in my life, I've decided to give up popcorn at work (they make it every day and I have it as a pre-breakfast every work day!). But I would like to find something else thats more meaningful, i will ponder on that this next week.

                              Have a wonderful day all!

                                Hi M-ers
                                A late check in from me, back home sweet home and with my darlin pooch lying here at my feet :h

                                Mstall - I'm glad you mentioned lent, when does it start? I'm not religious but have always used lent to give up something as I think its a good exercise in self discipline. Not sure yet what it will be this year.

                                All this talk of sugar craving is of great interest to me. When I drank I NEVER ate sweets or chocolate always prefering savory snacks but now my sugar intake is a disgrace. I know L glut is good for cravings but i cant get the powder form here in Portugal? What I wanted to ask is, do you think it works like other addictions? If I go cold turkey and deprive myself of sugar, will the cravings disappear? Will it be like quitting smoking and once a few weeks are gone, will I no longer want it? If this is the case it would be worth sticking it out or do you think it's a more complex craving than this?
