Hi,
I feel rather DUMB at this moment. I had a real hard time getting on this forum,my error, and now I am trying to find the post button on the new member introduction. Well this is a great introduction! I just clicked into someone else to send this new post. Maybe someone will take pitty on me and tell me how to do this right. You can guess, I am 60 and I have these senior moments. It is nice to finally get on line with everyone. Talk to you soon. Susan

Hi and welcome! Don't feel dumb. I am a computer dummy but I manage to muddle through. I know about those senior moments too. I told my sister I thought I had Alzheimers and she said "Well Lori, I don't know if you have Alzheimers but you certainly have Sometimers!" Gotta love her right? Anyway, your post got through just fine. If you want to reply to a post just click on post reply. If you want to make a new post, click on new thread. Don't be afraid to ask anything. There are no dumb questions and there is usually someone here that can help you. Before long you will be a pro at this. Glad to have you here. Just jump right in and join us!

Thank you for your reply Lori and kind words. Changing eating habits at this age is very hard and of course I am not as active as I used to be. I know I feel very good when I am on protein rather then carbs. I do have more energy. Another question if I may? I click on the smiles and all I can get is the signs. what is the trick? Thanks again, Susan

When you are replying to a post, click on "go advanced" when it takes you to the next window just click on which ever smiley face you want. It will just show the name of the smile like when I click on it shows up as "wiggle" in my post but when your post actually comes up on the forum it will have the actual smliey face you wanted in it. If this doesn't help you enough just let me know okay?
Lori

Oh and by the way...changing eating habits is hard at any age sweetie but it sure is worth it to feel so much better!

Susan, I am always so glad when someone asks questions about how this thing works. I am learning slowly groping my way along. I'll see if what Lori H said works for me I too am a senior, have 2 years on you. So glad you are here. Keep up the good work.

Mary

It worked Mary! Yay!

Oh yeah...don't feel bad ladies. I tried for days to get that cheat free icon in my posts. I finally asked and had it in no time. I was soooo proud of myself. Like I said...computer dummy here folks. There is usually someone that can help you with any problem though.

Well good morning to you all. Lori you have been a real gem. Mary, I will also be a smiler this morning I am off to our daughters and 8 grandkids to prepare for grandpa's birthday party this weekend. Hawiian theme. They have more fun with this celebrating. Our girls haven't had a family for over 3 years when they were kidnapped by their father. We are all together now and they are bright,happy well adjusted girls. We thank God for this. So I shall journal tonight and hope everyone has a wonderful day. Susan
