Haha that sounds tasty. I only ever get ads for the grocery store Safeway - and strangely enough not even food at Safeway, just laundry detergent and paper towels. Maybe they think I am stink and make messes?

Those adds are based on what you have been searching on the internet. I looked into the fit bit and got ads for that for a while, now its electronics as I had to find a new TV and did some research online.

That's interesting. I've seen some interesting ads on here too, and always wondered how they were chosen. It makes sense they would be pulled from your searches. Thanks for the info!
Goal 3: 125 whenever I get there
Goal 2(restart): 130 by May 25th (2013 vacation)
Goal 1: 135 by May 24th (2012)~~~~Accomplished! Smile

Yep, you're right, and they do the same thing on Facebook. For some reason, I keep getting ads about engagement rings.. HMMMMM.... Smile

I actually don't have any ads on this FS site. ??

It could be worse...I keep getting ads to increase your brain power.
If you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up. It is always tired in the morning, noon, and night. But the body is never tired if the mind is not tired.-George W Patton

I would like this site to stay free so I have no problem with the ads. P.S. I am getting the brain power ads, too. What does that say about me? Wink

weigh in
Good luck! I weigh in every day which has to stop. It is too easy to get caught up in the excitement of seeing the scale drop so much in a week-that is because of water weight I am sure.
