I agree with you Sherripie.  Middle school is a hard age.  I've heard it said that "The meanest creature on the earth is a middle school girl."  My daughter was an easy target being tall, skinny, freckled, and red headed.  Thankfully there are sweet teachers who help them to survive it!  Hang in there.... Life gets ALOT better after middle school. 

I love it how everyone seems to be jumping on the band wagon!  Has anyone seen the February 2011 Reader's Digest?  On the cover in red letters it says, "EAT THIS, lose weight", then it has a smiley face made of bacon and eggs! ha ha  In the article a physician and a science journalist are talking about all the things that WE already know.....thanks to Doug!!  

Gail, I love your ticker!  A few weeks ago, I flew for the first time in MANY years.   It was so nice to be able to fit in the seat....thanks to FTS!   I'm ready to go again! 

I am so sorry to hear of your loss, but we know that for those who are in Christ...it's victory!  I hope you and your family feel alot of peace just knowing that your sister has now received complete healing, she's visiting with your mom, and enjoying all of the sights of Heaven in the presence of God.
My citizenship is there too!   

You will love FTS, and once you get past the detox part it will get easier as you go!   My bet is that you will read the whole book the first day!  I believe the forum will be a great part of your success too.  Everyone here is so nice and very encouraging!   

I totally understand Beebs!  You should have SEEN one of my first FTS cheesecakes.  ha ha  I learned my lesson that you do HAVE to follow the directions and add the ingredients in order like the recipe says. (The recipe said to mix the cream cheese first until smooth...then add things one at a time.....but I DIDN'T.  I just dumped it all together thinking I could mix it all up quicker....NOT!  ha ha)  There were little clumps of cream cheese all through my cheesecake....ugh.

A fews years ago, I went through a phase of burning everything I tried to bake.  My mom suggested I buy an oven thermostat to check my oven.  Turned out that the built in thermostat in my oven had gone out.   I was like....so it wasn't just ME!!  ha ha  

Hey Owensmath, I would seriously LOVE to drive to North Carolina to visit with you folks some Saturday!  I would definitely bring a desssert too!!   

If we got away with sneaking our FTS treats & desserts into the Fox Sports Grill in Downtown Atlanta.....we could do it anywhere!  ha ha  That was so much fun!
