Not too far from Sanibel, you'll find it on the map- just move your finger up along the coast a little.<br /><br />As for losing weight, hey, at this point I take any loss as a victory. Even half a pound- at least it's not a gain!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967395833868389751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-29614709078582675462009-05-23T14:40:52.531-04:002009-05-23T14:40:52.531-04:00BTW - where are you going in Florida??BTW - where are you going in Florida??Little Black Scrap Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648629272966148169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-55030829808023002432009-05-23T14:38:18.044-04:002009-05-23T14:38:18.044-04:00You're doing great, Sandy!

Every 5#, every goal met, every pound for that matter, is an achievement! Currently I'm working on losing 15 pounds by October - when WE go back to Florida! I find that I have to do it slowly or it just goes back on. Plus summer is the hardest time to lose here because we top 100 degrees (even 115) most of the summer so I don't get out to walk. If I got more exercise I know I'd lose it faster. In the meantime, if I lose 1# per week, I feel like I'm successful. (Though rather impatient! But I've been known to lose weight through extreme measures and I will not go there again!)<br /><br />Keep up the good work! And look into the Cooking Light mag if you have a chance. I've picked up a few recipes there that have become family favs.Little Black Scrap Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648629272966148169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-90445195784764657662009-05-23T08:12:45.729-04:002009-05-23T08:12:45.729-04:00WOWEE Betsy, thanks for saying I am young!!!!!!!!
...WOWEE Betsy, thanks for saying I am young!!!!!!!!<br /><br />As for salad dressings, I used to be a "creamy" dressing person and the low/fat free ones are yucky. So I switched to a vinaigrette. Even the "regular" ones are less fat than most low-fat creamy dressings. Right now I'm addicted to Kraft's Sun Dried Tomato Vinaigrette. It's great, I like it so much it actually encourages me to eat more salads!!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967395833868389751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-23361308814583260772009-05-22T21:21:16.369-04:002009-05-22T21:21:16.369-04:00Congrats, Sandy...

I've gained and lost many, many times through the years---and have NEVER found a happy medium. Every single time I lose, I SWEAR to myself that I will NOT gain it back... BUT --somehow over a 4-5 yr. period, I DO... I've been to Weight Watchers and several others through the years. They DO work---but I don't stick with it AFTER the weight is gone. Now that I'm 65, the weight won't come off as easily. Quite frustrating. BUT--you are young. You can do it. I'm proud of you...<br /><br />Have a great weekend and Memorial Day.<br />Hugs,<br />Betsy<br />P.S. I know it's all about attitude ---but I have NEVER found a low-cal salad dressing that I 'really' like. Any ideas?Betsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-20976070233536978292009-05-22T18:26:12.968-04:002009-05-22T18:26:12.968-04:00When we did the zip line last year, they took phot...When we did the zip line last year, they took photos as we were coming across one of the lines, and we looked at them after we were done with the whole ordeal. I was actually smiling in mine (probably fear I'm sure), James had a look of terror in his. Needless to say, that was one time we didn't buy vacation pictures!Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05967395833868389751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7974408400574882931.post-80870897199890034322009-05-22T18:20:25.289-04:002009-05-22T18:20:25.289-04:00Have a wonderful holiday weekend, Sandy!
