Same here, I checked out Gemme's link, and will follow up on it.

Thanks for the BMI link Tommi....I came up much higher than I like. Of course, it says for my height a range of 119 to 152 is normal...and I know that the lowest weight I've had as an adult (living on fish and salad and working out 2 solid hours a day) was 155.

For me, a weight of about 175 is fabulous...I feel good, I look good, clothes fit well, my diabetes is under control...and, yes, I still have a big butt!

Weight is such an individual thing...I think as long as the numbers are good (blood sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, etc.) then the rest is just a matter of where I feel good.

Evening!

I have survived the long list of temptations spread liberally throughout the call center. I even took a walk during half of my lunch, and spent one of my breaks lifting in the gym.

One more potluck bites the dust!

I'm heading to bed early, so that my friends, Kristen and Andrew, and I can get an early start on the hiking trip tomorrow morning. I'm beat, so hopefully I'll drift off quickly.

I hope you all have a happy weekend, and enjoy life to its fullest

You rock Sylvie, keep up the amazing work!!
