WOW, Jill!!!!!

92 lbs in 5 months.. I hope I do so well! Also your pickles post

reminded me of those lovely kosher dills in the Fridge that I am

currently forbidden to eat. =( Do me a BIIIG favor- take a slice of

Mozzarella or Colby-jack cheese (moderately thin sliced), a slice of

roast turkey, no dressing at all, wrap it around a pickle spear...

then enjoy it for me!!!!! That is what I've been craving.. that and

Cajun roast beef with sharp cheddar, still wrapped around a pickle.

You are doing so well.. I want a used treadmill, dangit.. I have a

healthrider, but its hard to stay with it for 20 minutes cuz its

BORING.. and its kinda hard to read while riding it... You are doing

soooo well- Conga-Rats, darlin!!
