Hey. That is such a cute dog in your profile picture. I love small dogs. I wish I could have pets were I live. They said i could have fish but who wants a fish. You cant pet it or walk it or play with it.
it is quite sad to know when a woman is left on the street.that too in a country where womenz lib is spoken off every corner and every bit of the town.
in response to bookworm2011...My family doesn't like it when there are no snacks either, but I have weaned them off of them almost entirely now, because, the truth is, it won't hurt them to not eat sweets. In fact, sugar is the major cause of most sickness, since it is poison, and kicks the heck out of our immune systems! I'm so glad the green tea and stevia help you! It IS hard to remember to drink all that water, since you are a busy lady! Hang in there and it WILL come off!
in response to Bee's Knees...No Worries! That happens to me every once in a while too..I got a little bummed because the past two days I saw an increase of 6 ounces but then realized that I had stopped drinking all the water..I made myself drink the required glasses today and we will see what the scale says tmw..Ive found drinking some green tea with the sweetner completely takes care of any cravings when I cook for my family. I tried to eliminate boxed and packaged sweets so I must endure the baking treats for them since Im the one who got myself into this by telling them they need to eat healthier, homemade snacks! Thank you again for the support! I hope that things are well with you and your family..

in response to bookworm2011...Hi, Char. Sorry for the delay in answering. Ever notice how Aip sometimes tells you there are messages, then, after you open and read one, it tells you there are no more? I just ran across this message from you that I never even read before, so I'm assuming that is what happened.
I know. It is sooooo hard to cook or bake for others when you are not allowed to have any! But, when you are in the zone, you are in the zone!
Keep going! You CAN get down to the pre-baby weight again! I did.
I can't wait to see the after picture!
in response to Bee's Knees...Dear Bee's Knee's:
Thank you for your answr and taking the time to set me along the right reason why I am here. We all can use the help at times and me I am looking for an angel, for a long time now have been putting it in prayer to have a family car for my family of one child. this is one reason why I am looking into the grants and see where the Creator will guide me too. Once again thank you for your time... Close with love and peace... StrongBear
in response to georgette7...Thanks, Georgette. I do think it helps when people can see it is a real need, and that it goes directly to pay that need, instead of just a random person's account. Scammers have been here and tricked people into giving them lots of money in the past. We've lost many good contributors because of that. When new contributors join, and ask me how to tell which people have real needs, a good rule of thumb is seeing that some needs are real and having proof (like when the bill is paid directly.) so you have a good point.
in response to Bee's Knees...i just wanted to make sure no one was thinking that they would be sending the funds to me.i know all of you on the site whom are helpping are doing things as you can.i was reading things on the site befor posting.you are doing a great job with all repiles
in response to georgette7...What I am saying is that money is not often exchanged here in any way (direct gifts, grants, paying of bills, etc...) I understand you are asking for tax help. Everyone seems to be struggling right now, especially this time of year. Many are disabled, homeless, have no food, etc....
We have no idea which contributors happen to be reading the posts and are financially able and willint to help. Sometimes this does happen, but most of the time, we try to swap helpful info, resources for help through different organizations, etc...(usually the people who need help the very most are helped in those cases)
We have no access to any cash other than whatever we each earn via our own jobs.
Many times people have the misconception that we work for a large corporation and are able to distribute funds from a large account.
I hope this information helps.
I wish I could be of more help.
I know how it feels to be hassled for payments due.
God bless you.
in response to StrongBear...Hello, StronBear,
I was losing my house when I found this site. I was not sure what it was at first. I have never been given a grant here. I found out the people here help one another as they can. Some have been given cash assistance by other members, but mostly I see people giving one another support and information. Many contributors have taken the time to research different topics and are able to point others in the right direction for help.
Hello Sis just wanted to introduce my self first; I am StrongBear. You have been here from the time of 2010 and was wondering why you came to this site was it like me looking for grants? Ofcourse, with your permission I am asking of you. My reason is to find out if this site does help us, for I am looking for grants too... Please for give me if I sounded bold just wanted to know what is up with our site here? :) thanks for even reading this, close with love and peace... StrongBear
in response to georgette...We can help you with ideas about how to find resources for aid, but we cannot guarantee you will be gifted cash. Each of us gives as we are able.
needing help with taxs,home inc.,food,household items.these are the first main things i need to take care of.i put up a request on the home page.what help we get that would be great.anyone can make the main payment to whom it goes to
in response to Bee's Knees...if you have a need you can just let someone either pay it to the sorce or just get you the item you need.that is what i am looking for someone to do.i am not asking for cash in my hand just help.and that's whatever help i can get.i will still try to do things on my own.do not mean to sound mean but that's how i fell
i have been to places to get help.the only thing they would tell me is that we can not help you at this time.
in response to hoffa...HCG is fairly cheap and fast, although, to make it work, you do need to do it for a minimum of 23 doses, I think (3 doses a day). Another one that totally works is low carb. I have to run right now, but will be back soon...
Gud morning...so I been reading alot of what you wrote to bookworm and I was wondering what is it that u recommand her to take for her to lose 8ponds in 8days! Thats amazing...i want try watever it is if its not to expenive.I been taking diet pills forever and the only that hd seem to work was hydrocut but u have to wrk out a ton, abd lipozene makes you have oily gas, and thats not good..lol so I could use some of your advice asap..i want to be that sexy body for the summer
in response to Bee's Knees...I appreciate your support, I really do..this means so much to me because I really want to get healthier and back to where I was pre-baby. I am proud to say I have been very strict with my eating. Its SO HARD because I cook alot and like to experiment for my family. I fried them catfish and fries and cornbread one night this week and about died from the smell!! ALso was running late and no time to cook and had to stop at McDonalds for my kids a few times and the smell of the fries almost made me give in but I reminded my self these are the steps I need to take to achieve this goal. I did happen to find my size 5-6 pants and clothing in my garage and some of my pants are still new so my goal is to get down to those sizes from where I am now (a 10) and that way I wont have to do a ton of shopping for new clothes.
Just weighed in , I am on day 8 and have lost a total of 8 pounds! Im very excited and thank yoiu again for all of your help!
Char
in response to bookworm2011...Wahooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! That is so great! I'm so glad to hear it! I'm proud of you! Now, just beware that your rate of loss may slow a little after the first week, but do not be discouraged and do not give up! Most importantly, do NOT listen to people trying to discourage you! Remember, if you cheat, it not only will slow down your loss, but if the cheat is great enough, it will cause you to gain. Some cheats cause a several lb gain and take 3 days to get back to where you were.
Also, if you hit a plateau, where you have stayed the same weight for several days, ditch the shrimp, oranges, and tomatoes, since they have been known to hold people up.
You can totally do this!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep reporting back--please!
I love hearing about your success!
Good am! Just wanted to say I love this diet!!! I am not hungry at all and I have been on the diet one week. I have lost 6 pounds so far..thank you so much for the encouragement!
in response to JayR...Hi, JayR. If you tell your story briefly, on the main page, and list your specific needs, as well as becoming involved in our community by helping others in what ever way possible, (referring them to helpful info, etc...) someone may be able to help you.
Remember that many are here running scams, just to see what they can get for free and not willing to give anything back or work for anything for themselves.
The contributors must weed through all posts from all sorts, and make the best determination they can.
Many of us can only brainstorm with you to help you try to find a solution.
Only a few have the means to help with money.
We each do what we can.
There is no guarantee.
I wish you all the best.
Yaweh bless you!
Hi there!
my name is JayR and I'm new to this website and need someone that might can help me with how to get the best possible results on getting some immediate help! I'm just kinda reaching out right now
I loved reading this! I always considered myself a victim but I am a survivor, because I stopped the cycle. I've had people say how to move on and get over it. Ha! Easy for them to say. Knowledge is power!
in response to bookworm2011...Go to YouTube. There are tons and tons of success stories about HCG. People who are negative about it are usually those who have not tried it and probably did not read the book. If you understand the science behind it, and especially if you try it, there is no way you can give it a thumbs down if you are really being honest. Pounds and Inches by ATW Simeons is the book. You can find a free download of it online from many sources.
I agree completely with you about not keeping tempting things in your house! That is the only way I can pull it off too! Also, sugar is poison for everyone. It is the most addictive drug. Nobody needs it, since it poops your immune system. It won't hurt the rest of the family to do without it!
in response to Bee's Knees...I am so happy to hear a success sotry from the diet..Ive been leary of it because you hear alot of negativity..but I think some people may not use it correctly as with all diets..thats terrible about the kidney stones I have heard they are more painful than being in labor! I too lost alot of weight with protein only but was really paranoid about the effects on my kidneys...I was doing great this year until the holidays rolled around..I really love to cook and bake so we made tons of cookies, breads and pies! Needless to say, I need to get back on the wagon myself..my philosophy is if its not in the house, I cant eat it..and I wont be tempted.. so back to our healthy diet :)
we didnt want to deprive the kids of the holiday treats but we are all pretty burnt out and going back to normal! Thanks for the encouragement, I am sure you are going to continue doing well with your new plan of attack!
Happy New Year!
char
in response to bookworm2011...Lillian's drops are the best I've ever used. Also, the protein diet DOES rock, and I did have a kidney stone in the past, after doing it, but I've since learned that the protein diet did NOT cause it, but the low fat diets I did in the past made the stone form to begin with, then the protein diet released it!
I've been learning about the blood type diet too, which shows that there are certain things each person should eat, and not eat, according to their blood type.
That, combined with the low carb information has given me a real eating plan for life!
I have really fallen off the wagon in the past year, however, and have put back on some of what HCG helped me to lose, so I am back on the drops for now, till I get back down to where I should be.
You will be mad when your husband loses weight faster than you, when using HCG, by the way, since men lose faster!
What a great way to start the new year! I know you can do this in a short amount of time, too, since you are someone who is already all about being healthy and looking great!
All the best to you! Please take before and after pics and show me!
Good am! I was reading your previous posts on the HCG diet and wanted to ask you..do you know a legit site I can get the drops from? I know you used to get from Ebay and cant find them there anymore..but there are so many sites selling them and so many warnings about their authenticity..Im just not sure..if you have any info on that I would really appreciate it..I have had 4 kids and high blood sugar and like you there are some health conditions that run in my family that I can try to avoid by shaping up..Im not what anyone would consider overweight but Im just not as healthy as what I could be and this is going to mean dropping about 30 pounds..I used to run alot and I try to eat organic but its hard because the market is in another city....also tried protein diet but got scared of kidney stones so stopped even though I had great weight loss.. ..if you can help me with where to purchase the drops would really appreciate it..thank you for your help and have a blessed new year. Congratulations on your awesome weight loss!
in response to bookworm2011...Yes, there is a lady named Lillian Voden. You can find her on Youtube under the username Lvoden. She is very fair with her prices and a very very nice lady.
I was sexually abused growing up by my mothers boyfriend. From the age of 9 to 17. I tried to tell her the very first time it happened. She,surrounded by my 3 of my sister, started to laugh making them all laugh. I felt so confused She previous to that had been physically and verbally abused my hole life sense i can remember I've been a slut ,whore,a lying little bastard and a fucking stupid idiot. When I turned 18 I was leaving and wasn't looking back! Well for 20 some years I've lived in the circle couldn't break that pattern never fail out of 100 men I would pick (eventually) the ABUSER!!! 3 husband , almost 5 thousand dollars later to fix my nose once, It was on the other side of my face from my first, now it's broke again from my third! DIVORCE TIME!
in response to gonecrazy...First of all you and your husband are still married, it is still his responsesability, to give his family home, even if that means he does without. Go for disability, I have Bipolar, an chronic pain.
God Bless you I hope the best for you.
