maybe a few tips in there to help anyone who needs a "kick start"

Wow,you are amazing!Good for you.My prob is not losing the weight,its keeping it off,i yo-yo.I have been up to a size 16 and down to a size 10(my current)I never weigh,always measure by clothing size lol

I would be quite happy if i could stay where i am now but have been here before and for some reason keep going back and forth.
My daughter is 23 and uses a wheelchair because of her disability,so exercise is really difficult but she has so much willpower,last year she was up to 3x in clothing and this year she is wearing xL,i think thats amazing.

So congrats jenny and to all those working onlosing a few pounds keep trying,you will get there a little at a time.

Ordered something online for my buddy! Hope she likes it, I think it's pretty darn cute! :D

Going shopping (without Jackson!) on Friday, so hopefully I can power shop and get most of it done. Need to find some cheaper items because what I've bought so far as been the more pricey items...oops...let's not tell hubby!! ...and I used a GC, so does that really count in my budget? i'd like to say it doesn't because it wasn't cash coming out of my pocket LOL anyways, i don't care, i haven't rode in a long time and since this was more of a special circumstance, i probably won't be able to ride again till the Christmas one....so my buddy is getting spoiled and so will my next advent buddy!!

23. Do you like purses? If so, what kind? Colour? [/QUOTE]

Ok so I have pretty much everything for my buddy now, anythjng I'm buying from here on will be extras. Question about wrapping.... Do we number them?? Or does our buddy pick which ever one they want first and go from there?

For the Christmas Advent train, we numbered them. Some like to start with small gifts and lead up to bigger/expensive gifts near the end. For that train, since there was 25 days, I did small gifts with every 5 days being a "better" or "bigger" gift. Also, some people have birthdays/events happening during the trains, so on that day, you might want them to have an extra special present. Anyways, hope that helps?

My Mom told me she found one today. It's the brown with white dots. If my buddy can find another colour that would be great but any is okay.

Oooh those are pretty cute for $3!! I don't mind the blue one, but obviously love purple, or i like brown, black....anyways, buddy, if you want to get me one of those, i wouldn't mind!

Would your little one like a crayon caddy (home made) like the picture below
Unfortunately my oldest doesn't use crayons anymore and my youngest EATS them so we don't allow crayons in the house anymore


Buddy, are you ok with used books?
Yes I would be but thanks to some LOVELY ladies on these package trains I now own ALL of John Grisham's books he has ever written and he is the only author I enjoy so not looking for any at the moment


Buddy, it's Redemption weekend at SDM, anything that you can use from Shoppers?
Anything off my wishlist if it can be found there


I have a question for my buddy....I used to sell on eBay so I have a lot of New old stock NRFB condition items would that be OK? (Never removed from box/package)
Sure if on my wishlist


Buddy What are 3 wishes ....$2.....$5...
Many many on my wishlist already but will come back to this as there is many I could list


Buddy - do you like jewelry? If so, what kind? Earrings?
LOVE blown glass pendant necklaces - here is some ideas - funkier the better, not necessarily just the round ones, like the square/rectangle ones too or funky designs - just no solid colors




and by the way Juliejolie I LOVE THIS NECKLACE!!!


Unfortunately due to any allergy I can't where anything but 24K gold and I hate gold - so it is hard to wear earrings or rings


Do you like purses? If so, what kind? Colour?
Oh my - I think it was called Miss Plumtastic??? Pumpkin would know the one I am talking about maybe she can post her picture she has of her collection as I LOVE ALL OF THEM!! Purple is my favorite color


I need some handmade ideas for my buddy (other than the addy lables / stickers / biz cards etc)
One package train I got a beautiful personalized calendar of my favorite hockey player (still got it Melissa and peek at it every now and then!)
but some ideas - friendship bracelet, gimp keychain (love that my kids get to make these!), vase decorated with pretty rocks inside and fake flowers.....ANYTHING is great

[Trinimoneysaver]

Jenny, your story is amazingly motivating! I am already on my way to a healthier me. Thanks so much for the tips. You look great!

[Jezebel]

How many ppl have birthdays during the 17 days of the train ?

[chesterjes]

Would your little one like a crayon caddy (home made) like the picture below
Olivia would LOVE one

Hawaiian Punch Singles to Go <----these sound good!!

[chesterjes]

So buddy I bought 12 of your gifts today and ordered 2 more...almost done.

Little Buddy got 13 things for you today as well

Yeppers - wrap and number away! Please don't mail yet though...a major part (and the best in my opinion) of this train is getting to know one another through all of the questions that are asked/answered....we'd hate for that chatter to stop if someone gets their package super early hope that makes sense!

Ok. I got to page 45 reading and answering questions (in my word document- because SC won't let me use the return key). I will continue and finish in the morning and post all answers then. My bed is calling me... Netflix and Gossip Girl= distracted Candace...

Try hitting the button in the top left corner of the edit box (the one with the two little A's in it). Can you message me with the web browser you're using and the version? I was mentioning this problem to the Forum Expert and Boo but this info would help I'm guessing. Anyone else having this problem, can you please do the same?

Thanks!
