No, but we have been seriously considering it. However, there appears to be a shortage of honey bees - which makes them expensive.

But we're more interested in order to help save the little critters than to pinch their food off of them ...
If I decided to do it, it would be both to help the bees and help myself to locally made honey!

no it wasn't difficult at all, and we lived in a regular neighborhood, not in the country. the worst thing we had to deal with was when a new queen would swarm in a neighbor's yard and we would have to go deal with it. we had very gentle bees, to the point that the spare house key was kept just inside the top of the hive closest to the house! the only sting I got in over 10 years was stepping barefoot on a dead one

That has to be the best place ever! You could even post a sign on it "Spare in here" and you would still probably not have ever had a a break in.

I'm allergic though I dont think that would be the best idea for me

FARKING SCALE!!!

It seems like whenever I get to a 10lb barrier I stick there for a week... then it starts moving again. Going to try to fast for the rest of the week to get it moving down again.

it was always fun to post a note on the front door; "the bees have the keys!"

That's not really a good idea....according to the plan!

Of course I'm not one to talk, because I'm only slightly following the 'Eat to Live' plan....

That's true... but I really wanted to have total of 50lbs lost before my Dr visit. Still, I guess 43 in 3 months is pretty damn good to show progress.

That really is a lot. If your body is going to give you a hard time over a few pounds, maybe give it a week or to get with the program - you've put it through quite a shock!

I wish I could lose 15 pounds.

Nice...

the quandary is that most of my pants now want to not stay on. So, I need some smaller size but I don't want to spend money on clothes since I hope this is just a temporary size and I will need smaller still. I seem to have lost 4-5 inches off my waist (going by size of my jeans).
