How does this sound?:


Helloo,

Hope ya had fun at poker Sat. night, that was one heck of a long day/eve!

I'm thinking Tuesday isn't good for me, Weds, Fri, or Sat are muuuch better. I wanted to give you as much time as possible to get ahold of A. and arrange another time.

A.



Hope your poker went well, must have been one heck of a long day/night !

I'm thinking Tuesday isn't good for me, I'd prefer Weds, Fri, or Sat. I wanted to give you as much time as possible to get ahold of Andy and arrange another time.

whoopsie, I know not what I did. (:o

Oh yes, going to the gymn reeeeally helped! Endorphins have always worked for me. I'm also down another pound...34 lbs.

I wonder is there such a thing as the DR diet? This is the only good that has come of the situation so far...BUT it is GREAT! Oh and perhaps the weight training. It does sculpt, hoot!

Hi Ambiv....what book are you reading? I'd like to know how to respond to my MLC'er..

TX, Magic

As someone who tends to over write but recognises it in others (as we do!) what you wrote is fine, but I would not refer to the poker game.

Two reasons - one he is wanting to live his own life right now and two if it is a lie, they don't like being reminded of the fact.

So I would say something like," Tuesdays don't really work for me. Could you do another day?" and leave it at that.

PS Many of us have been on both the MLC diet, and/or the MLC rebound. Some people go off their food and others eat for comfort.

I agree with Beatrice. Don't mention the poker but I would offer another day. I'd also be stronger in your conviction ie. "sorry I can't do Tuesday but Wednesday is good for me. You?"

I'm loving the MLC diet. Just wish I could enjoy my food.

Hi Ambiv....what book are you reading

Thanks for the reminder , Magic. I should focus on M R F Mars and W R F Venus. It is insightful and gives concrete examples.

Thanks Bea,

Ha! I am wordy. I have to be very careful when I write to him, for if I'm too brief it comes across as abrupt at times. He then gets the wrong idea or reads into my brevity.

Good point about the poker game. THANKS!

CC,

You are SO right, conviction doesn't lead to sounding wishy washy. I don't want to sound like I'm seeking approval. How needy is that?

As for the diets gals? Bea I vacillate betwixt and between comfort AND starving myself.

Bea, I hear ya about enjoying the food. I had a chicken in the c. pot and was going to make a delicious soup. The past couple days, all I did was add garlic and salt . Ate that for two days in a row.

Never thought I'd do THAT!
