Happy early birthday, @FroggyBug
Nashville is reportedly having the biggest fireworks show IN THE COUNTRY this year, so I shall go check it out.
Colonoscopy was this morning. All clear! Woot!
And, the prep left me -5.4 lbs this morning. Wish it would stick!
Great news on the all clear!! Enjoy the fireworks!!0 -
Hey, @lilaclovebird I found this, you need to share it with Sgt. SP! (BTW, my hubby is a sergeant at the local SO, and I was a Lt. before I went to work for the Atty Gen Office in November.)

Thanks to everyone for the kind words.
This is why when people that were not around when my mother was alive (as in people I met afterwards), are sometimes shocked when I tell them the years she has been dead have been the most peaceful years of my life. When I tell them a few stories they kind of understand, those that knew her, have always understood.
I am glad she was never able to poison my son the way she did me. Because believe me when I say that is not the only terrible thing she did to me, it was just the last, as she died several months after that.
Sometimes I tell my DR that I get frustrated with myself because of how much my OCD tends to limit me, and she always tells me to be thankful I am as good as I am, because I could just be a drug addict or something, given what I have been through. She always says she is amazed I actually do not suffer from some sort of depression.
My sister and I get on well, and I am excited to see her. She truly understands how I feel. She is a very big business woman, a strong leader etc, and my BIL told me once years ago, that even a phone call from my mother would disturb her sleep for several nights.
I made sure that I did not follow in my mother's footsteps, and when I had children of my own, I could not understand how she behaved the way she did. I would kill someone if they did to my children some of the things my own mother did to me, like literally murder them.
Ok, enough of this downer crap.
@Susieq_1994 - you are rocking it today! Good Stuff!!
@rungirl1973 - yeah I do not understand why parents want to divide their children. My daughter is adopted (as I have mentioned), and because I could not have more than one bio child, I have explained to her how important it is to me that they continue to be close,, even after I am gone. Also, glad your test went good!
@crosbylee - hope you have a great sunny weekend! I can't wait to go swimming! Pools opened last week but I have not had time yet!
@ythannah - I remember you saying you had a crappy home life too, I totally understand.....thankfully you were able to get out when you did!
@xLoveLikeWinterx - I ask myself that question all the time....I told my sister our mother could have just eaten us when we were young like an animal and saved us a lot of grief!
@quiksylver296 - I was wondering where you were...glad to see you on today! Good Stuff on the lifting!
I am feeling much better today than yesterday and the last few days.....I did not make it to the gym because I slept like crap and had a few too many things to do today before my sister gets here tomorrow, but I am gonna make it a bigger priority. I got a call this morning that my kitchen floor is finally being replaced on Monday, and while it causes me stress in the moment, it really needs replacing so I am thrilled.
I reworked my budget for this month so that I am able to give my son a good chunk of money towards another bike. While the whole situation just burns my *kitten* and I could use the money for other things, I really want to help him out so I am glad I was able to do that. Hopefully going to pick one up this weekend so he doesn't have to walk much longer......he is walking to work right now and it is so hot outside and it makes me feel sad for him, esp having just bought that bike last week.
Next week my boss is off work, so I am gonna be working extra again, but told her yesterday to be careful not to over load me because I am on edge.
Hopefully I do not get too far behind in the next week or so.....cuz I do not think I could skip and jump back in....I am WAY too bother by things like that.....I will not watch a TV series if I miss a single episode, or even a movie if I miss the first few minutes.....everything I do has to be in order....call it OCD
But even if I get behind and it takes me a few days to catch up I will just read along as I go, as long as you guys don't mind me adding my two cents on situations well after they are posted about!
I will be back on and off today, and tomorrow before my sister comes, but if that puts me behind, after the busy weekend and work week I have coming up, it might take me until this time next week to be back on track here, esp if I am gonna make sure I get my gym time in!!
I love you guys! A lot of you have truly touch my heart!
P.S. - Shrimp is delicious!!!!0 -

Edited because HE'S starting pre school, not ME. Where's the coffee?
And he looks super cute too!
Thanks! I should post a picture where you an see his eyes. They are BEAUTIFUL! Big and super dark brown. Definitely what he get compliments on the most. When he was younger, strangers always thought he was a girl (no matter how he was dressed) and their excuse after I would correct them was always, "but those eyes are so beautiful"...as if boys can't have beautiful eyes???0 -

Last night my husband and I went to the gym. It was deadlift day for me and I had told him that I managed to knock out 225 pound deadlifts on my last deadlift day. So, I load up my deadlifts with 225 pounds and I notice that my husband is intently watching me. I knocked out my 225 pounds, five reps, totally nailed it. And my awesome husband literally gave me a standing ovation, in the middle of the gym! It seriously brought tears to my eyes. I
him!
Nice!0 -
Two weeks until camping and swimming which means a bikini! You guys are awesome and I adore this thread, so I'm putting my goals to paper (webspace? Whatever) someone kick my *kitten* into gear please?!
1)Eat at or under goal.
2) Keep stretching/rolling everyday.
3) Lift at least 4 times within the next two weeks.
4) Start running next week but listen to your body.
5) Stop feeling sorry for yourself and get moving!0 -

Just in case there is another weird (similar to me) person out there I made this up last night.
Gluten free chocolate cookie pie crust smeared with peanut butter and set aside. Blend until smooth a box of silken extra firm tofu, a banana, 4 (a lot I know) Tablespoons cocoa powder and just enough sugar to sweeten a little. Blend until smooth. Pour into pie crust. Chill until 1/2 frozen. mmmmm. Very dark chocolate, very smooth. It could be made with an avocado instead of banana if you don't want the banana taste. A splash of vanilla would have been nice too, but I was out. Yum! Daughter loved it too. The filling is not as thick as I'd like but the taste is what I wanted.

I'm back from camping! Survived the night and no bears came. My friends' son gallantly made me take his bed in the camper and slept in the tent with my son. Their dogs insisted on sleeping with me - they like to sleep right in the bed, which both disturbed my sleep and kept me warm, so I'm not sure if it was good or not!
Sorry I can't reply to all the posts, but I'm thinking of those who are dealing with difficulties, and cheering with those who have had successes. I have to go and shower off the campfire smell and have a little snooze now.0 -

I also had a burger, slice of pizza and my last 2 Oreo pop tarts for lunch. Plus my leg hurts so I'm not even exercising today.
What is a taco?!?! Other than delicious Mexican food, which I can only assume is not what you're referring to in this particular context.
Toyota Tacoma and now I want the Mexican food version lol.
Sigh. I may make the best chile rellenos in the world (no sense in false modesty =P) but there's no way I am touching that recipe until I am deeply entrenched in maintenance eating. I sure love that stuff, though.
Teach me your ways! When I lived in Tucson I got decent at cooking a variety of Mexican foods, but rellenos avoided me.
Edit: Spelling is hard.
Glad to oblige - I love sharing recipes! The most common missteps I see with rellenos are using a flour-based batter and using (oh please god don't do this) enchilada sauce instead of salsa.
Anyway, here is a good traditional recipe, and I apologize to others on this thread that it is so long:
Chile Rellenos
Ingredients
3 C. high-quality roasted-tomato salsa (translation: Don't go buy the stuff in jars at the grocery). Some people prefer a Salsa Verde, which can be lovely as well. Either way, I prefer to make my own. Let me know if you want a recipe - it's easy to make! These days, many stores carry pretty good fresh salsas.
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp. kosher salt (measured) plus additional to taste
4 whole medium-sized Poblano or Anaheim chiles (about 1 lb.)
Note: Anaheim chiles are slightly milder than Poblano. I prefer Poblano because they are wider and easier to work with, plus I find their flavor a bit richer. They are only a little hotter than Anaheims.
3 C. shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 C. vegetable oil of your choice
4 large eggs, separated and at room temperature. Note: Separate the eggs when they're cold, then bring them to room temp. Make SURE there is no yolk mixed in with the egg whites or they won't froth up properly.
Directions
Warm the salsa in a small saucepan and hold it at that temp while you work on the chiles.
Heat the oven to 250.
Put a wire cooling rack on a baking sheet and set aside.
Make a "T" shaped cut in each chile, with the top bar being about half an inch from the stem and the long cut running nearly the whole length of the chile. Don't cut off the stem end completely - you need the chile to be a little container
Carefully open the flaps of the cut and use a paring knife and/or spoon to gently remove the core, ribs, and seeds.
If you have a gas stove, turn a burner to medium-high and roast each chile by putting it directly on the burner and turning with tongs for 5-7 minutes or until the skin on all sides is blistered and has blackened spots. OR turn your broiler to high and put the chiles on a rack. Broil 8-9 minutes, turning with tongs, until skin on all sides is blistered/blackened. Chiles broiled this way will be a tad softer, so be careful when working with them.
Remove the chiles to a large bowl, cover tightly, and let sit until they are cool enough to handle (they will continue to steam, which makes the skins easier to remove). Then use a butter knife to GENTLY scrape away and discard the skins.
Yes, I know this is more of a hassle than just buying canned chiles, but roasting the fresh chiles like this is one of the keys to making the dish really amazing (the others are good salsa and the correct batter).
Season the chiles inside and out with salt and black pepper. Stuff each with a generous 2/3 C. of the shredded Monterey Jack cheese, then close flaps (you can use a wooden skewer if you like) and set aside.
Whisk the egg yolks in a medium bowl until light in color and frothy (about 2 minutes).
Add 1/2 tsp. salt to the egg whites and use a mixer to beat until stiff peaks form (about 1.5 minutes)
Add the egg yolks to the whites and gently fold them in with a spatula until they are just barely combined. Set aside.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until it's quite hot - about 4 minutes.
Work with one chile at a time. Drop 1/2 C. of the egg batter into the oil and use a spatula to spread it out to about the same size as the chile. Lay the chile cut-side down on top of the batter. Drop another 1/2 C. of batter on top and use a spatula to spread it evenly around the rest of the chile, covering all but the stem.
Cook until the bottom is golden-brown (2-3 minutes). Then use a spatula + a fork to carefully turn the relleno over and cook for another 2-3 minutes. If you need to, use a spatula or tongs to stand it on each side to brown. Place the relleno on the rack that's on the baking sheet, and put into the oven to keep warm. Do the same with the remaining chiles as you finish them.
To serve, put 1/3 C. of the warmed roasted tomato salsa on a plate and top with a chile relleno. Serve additional salsa on the side. If you don't like salsa (sacrilege!) you could serve them over fire-roasted tomatoes.
@Caitwn if you (or anyone else who actually uses computers every now and then instead of doing everything on a smartphone) want to copy and paste into the super great recipes.0 -

Thanks! And seriously I know that kids are funny...but I could never imagine that a 3 year old could be as sarcastic, creative, and hilarious as he is! Cracks me up all day, every day. He's my best little bud! I'm dreading this fall when he starts pre school...I'll be lost without my sidekick!
Edited because HE'S starting pre school, not ME. Where's the coffee?
This morning he tells me, "I love you mom because you're my best friend," does the CHEESIEST smile, then asked me for ice cream. I told him not for breakfast, he tells me, "You're fired, I don't want a mean best friend anymore".
When my 4 year old gets mad at me his big comeback is : "You're not my best friend and you're not invited to my birthday party"
LOL!
My nephews always call me mean, because I won't let them eat like three or four granola bars or basically eat the whole house.
I'm a mean mom! Son to me when I told him no last year "You're mean!" (Mean = there are rules and they will be followed. The TV goes off now.)
Whenever my son would call me "mean" I would answer with "I'm the meanest mama you'll ever know!" He's old enough that he gets it, now.
When I call my dad I always tell him it is his favorite, most talented and beautiful daughter calling (notwithstanding I'm his only daughter.)
ETA He is hard of hearing so he does not recognize my voice necessarily.
I tell my mum it's her favourite child. I have a brother. I also got a card that said 'I love how we don't have to say out loud I'm your favourite child' I was in America on mother's day and got whatapps from my brother, first of him holding up the card with a downturned expression on his face, followed by a picture of his middle finger.0 -

My 3.5 yr old is like this too- only he's charming when he wants to be. He's totally got the "ginger hair and freckles with big cheesy smile" thing down pat so he KNOWS when he's cute.kelly_c_77 wrote: »kelly_c_77 wrote: »So, I failed at the grocery store...I'm way over goal already and haven't had dinner yet.
