in response to bookworm2011...My family doesn't like it when there are no snacks either, but I have weaned them off of them almost entirely now, because, the truth is, it won't hurt them to not eat sweets. In fact, sugar is the major cause of most sickness, since it is poison, and kicks the heck out of our immune systems! I'm so glad the green tea and stevia help you! It IS hard to remember to drink all that water, since you are a busy lady! Hang in there and it WILL come off!
in response to Bee's Knees...No Worries! That happens to me every once in a while too..I got a little bummed because the past two days I saw an increase of 6 ounces but then realized that I had stopped drinking all the water..I made myself drink the required glasses today and we will see what the scale says tmw..Ive found drinking some green tea with the sweetner completely takes care of any cravings when I cook for my family. I tried to eliminate boxed and packaged sweets so I must endure the baking treats for them since Im the one who got myself into this by telling them they need to eat healthier, homemade snacks! Thank you again for the support! I hope that things are well with you and your family..

in response to bookworm2011...Hi, Char. Sorry for the delay in answering. Ever notice how Aip sometimes tells you there are messages, then, after you open and read one, it tells you there are no more? I just ran across this message from you that I never even read before, so I'm assuming that is what happened.
I know. It is sooooo hard to cook or bake for others when you are not allowed to have any! But, when you are in the zone, you are in the zone!
Keep going! You CAN get down to the pre-baby weight again! I did.
I can't wait to see the after picture!
Lovelyone46408,post to me anytime.good to have someone to talk to.just joined aidpage for help but want to be able to have dialog with others.take care.bigred64
okay here this goes i am trying to get a car so i can go to work and take my daughter to school. we get up at 5 and still waiting on the bus we r still late. i was plannin on etting a car with my taxes but some one claimed her so, now i have to submit all kinds of work. if there is away for aomeone to help me this would be great.
in response to Bee's Knees...Dear Bee's Knee's:
Thank you for your answr and taking the time to set me along the right reason why I am here. We all can use the help at times and me I am looking for an angel, for a long time now have been putting it in prayer to have a family car for my family of one child. this is one reason why I am looking into the grants and see where the Creator will guide me too. Once again thank you for your time... Close with love and peace... StrongBear
in response to georgette7...Thanks, Georgette. I do think it helps when people can see it is a real need, and that it goes directly to pay that need, instead of just a random person's account. Scammers have been here and tricked people into giving them lots of money in the past. We've lost many good contributors because of that. When new contributors join, and ask me how to tell which people have real needs, a good rule of thumb is seeing that some needs are real and having proof (like when the bill is paid directly.) so you have a good point.
in response to Bee's Knees...i just wanted to make sure no one was thinking that they would be sending the funds to me.i know all of you on the site whom are helpping are doing things as you can.i was reading things on the site befor posting.you are doing a great job with all repiles
in response to georgette7...What I am saying is that money is not often exchanged here in any way (direct gifts, grants, paying of bills, etc...) I understand you are asking for tax help. Everyone seems to be struggling right now, especially this time of year. Many are disabled, homeless, have no food, etc....
We have no idea which contributors happen to be reading the posts and are financially able and willint to help. Sometimes this does happen, but most of the time, we try to swap helpful info, resources for help through different organizations, etc...(usually the people who need help the very most are helped in those cases)
We have no access to any cash other than whatever we each earn via our own jobs.
Many times people have the misconception that we work for a large corporation and are able to distribute funds from a large account.
I hope this information helps.
I wish I could be of more help.
I know how it feels to be hassled for payments due.
God bless you.

Hello everyone. I am a single mother waiting on disibility. I am in college at 31, and am in diar need of transportation. I live in Michigan, and I have heard of people, (single people with no kids, men for that matter) getting car voutures. for examole 1200$$ twords a vehicle and such. I am wondering if anyone has an idea on how to apply or qualify for one? PLEASE REACH OUT! :)
in response to StrongBear...Hello, StronBear,
I was losing my house when I found this site. I was not sure what it was at first. I have never been given a grant here. I found out the people here help one another as they can. Some have been given cash assistance by other members, but mostly I see people giving one another support and information. Many contributors have taken the time to research different topics and are able to point others in the right direction for help.
in response to seekinghelp2012...Consolidating debts is rarely the best way to go in trying to reduce your debt levels. Best thing to do is to develope a budget and a plan and stick to it.
Does anyone know of a place to consolidate debts for persons with bad credit. I would even consider peer to peer lending if there are any wealthy individuals willing to help a single, graduate student, with a full time job. I've suffered some financial misfortunes but I'm trying to get back on track. I need about $50,000 and I can comfortably pay be $450 - $550 per month. Please help in any way that you can and it will be greatly appreciated.
Hello Sis just wanted to introduce my self first; I am StrongBear. You have been here from the time of 2010 and was wondering why you came to this site was it like me looking for grants? Ofcourse, with your permission I am asking of you. My reason is to find out if this site does help us, for I am looking for grants too... Please for give me if I sounded bold just wanted to know what is up with our site here? :) thanks for even reading this, close with love and peace... StrongBear
in response to georgette...We can help you with ideas about how to find resources for aid, but we cannot guarantee you will be gifted cash. Each of us gives as we are able.
needing help with taxs,home inc.,food,household items.these are the first main things i need to take care of.i put up a request on the home page.what help we get that would be great.anyone can make the main payment to whom it goes to
in response to Bee's Knees...if you have a need you can just let someone either pay it to the sorce or just get you the item you need.that is what i am looking for someone to do.i am not asking for cash in my hand just help.and that's whatever help i can get.i will still try to do things on my own.do not mean to sound mean but that's how i fell
i have been to places to get help.the only thing they would tell me is that we can not help you at this time.
in response to hoffa...HCG is fairly cheap and fast, although, to make it work, you do need to do it for a minimum of 23 doses, I think (3 doses a day). Another one that totally works is low carb. I have to run right now, but will be back soon...
This is a long shot but im going to give it a try. I wrecked my car in May and totaled it and have been out of work ever since. My son helps me out so much on geting bills and rent paid etc. I need a car really bad. I dont care what it looks like as long as it runs good. If anyoone who sees this and has an extra dollar or even two dollars...even a few cents. just whatever you can spare I have a paypal set up for car donations (Just made it) or rather added a card to it sp i can be used. I promise to pay all forward once I get a job very happily will do so. My paypal name is heownsme105@hotmail.com

Gud morning...so I been reading alot of what you wrote to bookworm and I was wondering what is it that u recommand her to take for her to lose 8ponds in 8days! Thats amazing...i want try watever it is if its not to expenive.I been taking diet pills forever and the only that hd seem to work was hydrocut but u have to wrk out a ton, abd lipozene makes you have oily gas, and thats not good..lol so I could use some of your advice asap..i want to be that sexy body for the summer
in response to Bee's Knees...I appreciate your support, I really do..this means so much to me because I really want to get healthier and back to where I was pre-baby. I am proud to say I have been very strict with my eating. Its SO HARD because I cook alot and like to experiment for my family. I fried them catfish and fries and cornbread one night this week and about died from the smell!! ALso was running late and no time to cook and had to stop at McDonalds for my kids a few times and the smell of the fries almost made me give in but I reminded my self these are the steps I need to take to achieve this goal. I did happen to find my size 5-6 pants and clothing in my garage and some of my pants are still new so my goal is to get down to those sizes from where I am now (a 10) and that way I wont have to do a ton of shopping for new clothes.
Just weighed in , I am on day 8 and have lost a total of 8 pounds! Im very excited and thank yoiu again for all of your help!
Char
in response to bookworm2011...Wahooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! That is so great! I'm so glad to hear it! I'm proud of you! Now, just beware that your rate of loss may slow a little after the first week, but do not be discouraged and do not give up! Most importantly, do NOT listen to people trying to discourage you! Remember, if you cheat, it not only will slow down your loss, but if the cheat is great enough, it will cause you to gain. Some cheats cause a several lb gain and take 3 days to get back to where you were.
Also, if you hit a plateau, where you have stayed the same weight for several days, ditch the shrimp, oranges, and tomatoes, since they have been known to hold people up.
You can totally do this!!!!!!!!!!!!
Keep reporting back--please!
I love hearing about your success!
I need some Prayers... Jobless, Car broke down, really struggling to pay bills and have food in house. Im really sad and depressed that I cant find anything out there it just makes me feel completly worthless. Please Pray to help save my family!
Good am! Just wanted to say I love this diet!!! I am not hungry at all and I have been on the diet one week. I have lost 6 pounds so far..thank you so much for the encouragement!

in response to Linda D....Hi if you sign up for freebies, you can get many free things emailed to you daily. Also search for freebies on facebook and look for giveaways of items nearly daily. Finally, you can email companies directly..whatever product your needing if you contact them via email and tell them how much you love their product, they will usually send you some coupons..last year alone I received 30 in diaper coupons, 10 in free dog food coupons, etc...its time consuming but well worth it..I have free things come in the mail everyday..you can also do swagbucks a legit site that you can earn giftcards and money for doing surveys etc...hope this helps
