P,
I just put some of the frozen fruit in the Ninja, a fresh banana (gives it the creaminess), and enough water to make the mixture "flow smoothly" thru the blades. Some LDLer's add fruit juice instead of water, but I prefer the water....no extra calories plus I think the fruit juice adds a different flavor.

Happy eating,  :D

Thanks JF. You're right....the weight is gone forever. I don't ever see my self heavy again.

I put a flier in the Red Cross office window advertising your talk at RVMS on the 12th. Looking forward to attending that evening. *love*

Your story was so funny.  I once years ago bought a pair of jeans and all day wore the long see through clear decal that they put on the leg it tells the size of the pants.  No one said a word to me and they must have seen it since it was right on the back of my leg.

Wendy- Was it a size you were proud of?  If I could wear a size 12, I think I might "accidentally" leave that tag on for awhile *evil*!  Pam

Pam,

You are too funny, you little devil!  When you get to buy your first pair of size 12 jeans, I would love to see you "accidentally" leave the clear tag on the jeans.  What a hoot it would be to see the reaction of people who notice it!

No batter. Just slice them and fry them in olive oil with a little salt and pepper on them. You won't believe had delicious they are that way!!

I have signed up to go on a cruise to the South Caribbean in March. All my clothes that I wore last summer are too big.  :D So I went "clothes shopping" in a closet downstairs. I found several capris & tops that fit wonderfully. I haven't been able to wear them for at least 5 yrs and some of them were a little loose on me. I hope they still fit in 3 months. On second thought, wouldn't it be wonderful if they were all too big by then!!!!  :D

Merry Christmas to everyone!!!

Ollie- Congratulations on fitting into the rest of your saved clothes.  You are such a shining example of LDL success!  I bet those clothes won't fit for long as your body continues to change (for the better)!  I have been thinking of you and this difficult holiday season.  I am glad that you have something fun to look forward to this coming year.  May you have a blessed Christmas and know that you are in my heart.
