: Yes, I am Swedish and live in Sweden, and we
: have great vacations in Europe... 5 weeks
: payd by law after your first year of
: employment. So that's part of why we chose
: to live here instead of in America. I have
: lived in America because my ex husband has
: most of his family there, and he lives out
: in Utah. My boys go to see him in the summer
: when we go to Chicago. My husband likes it
: here in Sweden and we will be here for a
: while, but will move to America if my sons
: decide to. My husband has a daughter, she's
: all grown up, and she lives in America. So
: if all our kids live there, we will too. My
: Cambridge place here isn't so good when it
: comes to support so I was so happy when I
: found this sight. Ruth-Ann provides this as
: a wonderful tool for us to help each other.
: There isn't anything like this in Sweden. So
: I'm lucky to have found this one and
: grateful that I could join you guys!

: I'm confused, don't you live in Sweden? Are
: you Swedish? Wow I think there must be a
: fun story there somewhere...listen we can do
: this Lisa, it's our vow to each other.
: Tommy are you with us. Sandra

: Hey,
:
: Yes, making a vow sounds great! My husband
: is from west of Chicago (Fox Valley area) so
: we go there to see family every year. I have
: two sons with my ex husband who lives in
: Utah, so my boys go out there to see him at
: the same time we're in Chicago. We're
: staying for a month, and last year I was so
: unhappy because I had gained so much weight
: and just felt uncomfortable all the time. It
: takes down my life quality alot to be
: overweight and I need to do this. It works
: best for me when I do SS so that's what I'll
: be doing. I'm going to start Monday and I
: will make it!!! Thank's again for being
: here!

: Lisa, I"m proud of you, do not give up
: on
: me and most importantly on yourself, listen
: this week is tough for me too because it's
: spring break and I have my kid home all the
: time and then it's Easter. How about we
: make a vow that for this week we will do our
: best to loose what we can and starting
: Monday we are partners for being the best
: that we can be and we will be there for each
: other.

: Where in America are you going?

: Hi Sandra,
: Yes, I need to be thinking positive thoughts
: and not start thinking it's no use and so
: on... I will not give up, have my vacation
: countdown, leaving for America in 13 weeks.
: I have promised myself to do 12 weeks of
: SS'ing before I go, so next Monday is my
: last day to start. So after Easter weekend I
: will do SS, I know it will make me so much
: happier and I know I can do it!!! We will
: make it girl, we deserve it!!! I don't want
: to come back for vacation and be fat... I
: want to feel good about myself.
: Thank's for being here,
: Love Lisa
