LOL What an idea, we can all travel around the United States and see places we have never seen. That way we can all meet and spend a week cooking for what ever family we visit and then move on to the next place. Maybe Mary with all her spare time could coordinate all of this for us!haha
Move over, Super Nanny! Here come's Wendy's Good News. A new Reality TV Series. I can see Wendy and Hubby now..... moving in to change one family's WOE for a week! I can just see the kids with a bowlful of bean soup asking, No burgers? No Pizza??? No Chips?? Oh, yah, and reading labels and cleaning out the frig and pantry! What a hoot that would be. The weigh-in at the end of the week would be exciting. A one year follow-up would be even better!

Linda- What an inspired vision!!! I know Roger would be so excited. A new reality show. Are you in Wendy? Linda, medical expert and executive producer. Special guest appearances by Roger and LDL members who have overcome all obstacles to become slim and healthy. Cooking demos. Dropping blood sugars, plummeting pounds, grateful families, kids who will not grow up to face obesity, communities sponsoring contests such as win your weight in beans... I can see it now ! Pam
Oh yah, Pam, love the contest idea. Guess you would have to take charge of promotions Niki and Coding Queen are the true Medical Experts here, I will be happy to assist. Would have to have at least one episode of learning how to eat out.... at Sicilian Mama's Restaurant. I know she will have one soon! So what do you say Wendy? Mary J, keep those recipes coming. Gwen and Little Mary, start planning your food police uniforms. Red hat or pink capri's? or both? Crickadoodle, got your spandex picked out? You will have to lead the exercises. Who else wants to join in? Whither? Need a cheering section...get your pompoms ready. Then we would have to have the family visit Donna (Clown Lady) in the caboose. Sneaky Snoopy will be running along beside it after her Marathon. Since Ollie started all this, first trip may have to be Ohio. This may be low budget to start with, so Ollie won't mind putting up the whole cast and crew at her place as long as Wendy cooks?

You bet! I'm in and packing my suitcase as we speak. I want to do one show at Roger & Anitas so I can see the perfect kitchen Mary talks about. Hey I think we are on to something here for sure!
OK, how's this? Lets Do Lunch TV Show......Saving One Family a Week, One Pound at a Time!

Roger- An infomercial would be great. I just hope they'll let you be yourself and not like Billy Mays- you know shouting and fake. This is exciting news. Pam
Joyful Friend The more the merrier, I understand Ollie is putting us all up at her house so bring the whole family.
I was sooo hungry today so had to stop and go over what stresses are in my life right now. Can't come up with anything specific but must have been stress since I don't think it was true hunger.

I went to the back doctor again today because my back has been so painful especially the last couple days. It has hurting to move and even to not move. Well I found out it isn't my back it is a flair up of diverticulitis. It was years ago I had an attack this bad and had kinda forgot what it felt like. Now that I know it can be taken care of. Must have been all those raspberries I have been eating almost daily.

How wonderful that your back doctor was able to figure that out and really help you instead of assuming since you HAD back trouble before, this must be what it is again and just throw more meds at you. Reminds me of the surgeon who was called in when my daughter woke up early doubled over with right lower quadrant pain (she was 16 at the time). The surgeon could have predicted it was appendicitis and took her straight to OR. But instead he said he really did not think it was and ordered an ultrasound and they found the kidney stone. I am thankful for the doctors who have integrety like that. No telling how long you would have suffered taking pain pills that did not make the "back pain" go away if the doctor did not use the discernment he was given.
