Teppy, yes, I have, with some lapses on nights out every couple weeks, which I think are part of staying on any diet. Haven't had chocolate or any sweets at all in 9 weeks.

Steph, I hope the doctor can clear up your ear and sinus problems quickly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hee, Robin. I just weighed in at 140 and am very excited because it means I've regained the weight I lost after the concussion. I'm going to focus on 145 for now (which means regaining the weight I lost when I started running) and then it'll be back to looking wistfully at 150.
Lord, may I never weigh what I probably weighed at 25.

Last night I discovered the wonder that is Nutella. Why has no one told me about Nutella before?
Did you eat it with a spoon or with a knife?
WooHoo, Robin!

Hey. New board.
Fie upon banks!
I'm having two issues: one, my available balance is still $2000 below my ledger balance for some unknown reason - I'm still hoping it's my computer being charged, but if it's not, bad.
Two: I sent my dad an electronic transfer for $3200 a few weeks ago. I didn't have his account number, so I just did his address - when that happens, they send a physical check. Next day my account was debited, a few days he got the check, great.
Except when he tried to deposit it, it was returned with a "Could Not Find Account" stamp. The money is no longer in MY account. What we think happened is Washington Mutual transferred the money to another bank (JP Morgan and Chase Payment Processing Center, apparently) who sent my dad the check. Fine. But either his bank or they strewed up somewhere, and the money is now in nebular-world somewhere. We don't know WHO "Could Not Find Account" - his bank couldn't find the JP Morgan account? JP Morgan couldn't find my dad's account? Neither of them could find my account? We need to hold somebody to... account!
By the way: I don't blame Washington Mutual, who are generally the best bank ever. But still: Fie Upon Banks!

Gris, it sounds like you have to get yourself to WaMu, park yourself in a seat by one of the bank officers and refuse to leave until they can tell you what happened to your money. Screw ups over $5000 deserve a face to face.
GO ROBIN! No sweets for 9 weeks? 20 lbs? Wow!
Ear ma~ Teppy.

Hey. New board.
It actually looks like the $3200 screwup is the fault of JP Morgan and Chase Payment Processing Center. We called my parent's home bank (who are Southern and therefore friendly-like. Really.) and had a discussion that locked the problem down to them (JP Morgan) not knowing their head from their ass.
That is: parent's bank got the check, credited my parent's account, put their name and account information on the check (in the endorsement area) and sent it to JP Morgan expecting a credit. Instead, JP Morgan was like "huh what?" and sent it back all like "no likey!". For... some reason? We're still locking that down.
The other thing - yeah, if it's not cleared up by day's end, I'll do that. I already sent them an online message, and sometimes i get responses really quickly to those, so we'll see.
