Vicky, you go girl&#33;&#33;&#33;  Just take it a day at a time, and you will reach your goal.  I lost 6 lbs. my first day on Kimkins too, and thought that would be it for the week, but it was continually 1-2 lbs. a day.  Sorry about the repairs - I could not live without A/C and it is probably hotter there than here in Denver - it is certainly hotter for longer periods, we just get it a couple of months.  Mercedes, I have never heard of Fios either.  We have Dish Network - I love my DVR.  It is great when you are watching a show and missed what they said, so you can just back it up, or can pause it if you have to go to the potty during the show.  Ain&#39;t modern technology somethin&#39;???
