Slower Weight loss at 50?

Good Morning VixGood morning.
Came back to hot weather. In the 80s during the day...in the 60s at night, which is great for sleeping.
Painting class this morning. And my cleaning person is coming today. I'll have a busy weekend. My daughter is hosting the wedding shower for my future daughter-in-law on Sunday. I'll help her decorate, and I'm making some frittata muffins for the shower.
Roger, I find it easier to check a bag, and to carry a backpack for the few things I want to take on board. That way I can take full size toiletries if I want, and can pack things like nail clippers in the checked bag. Also, don't have to lug around a heavy bag waiting in the airport. And the backpack fits under the seat, so I don't have to put anything in the overhead bins.
Have fun getting your nails done, Irene. I'm going for a mani-pedi with my daughter on Saturday....looking forward to it, haven't done that in a really long time.
Happy Thursday, everyone.
I just wish the bedroom would cool down better overnight it seems to be stuck at 72 degrees and I am loathe to use the AC so I just use a Box Fan for now. I am also hoping that the AC works as I had no luck when I looked for one that would fit last year just in case.
Some of the restriction on what can be carried onboard strike me as ridiculous. Nail clippers as a weapon, really ?
Which reminds me that I need to trim my toenails, they are too long
Enjoy Your Saturday
Have a Nice Day
Roger

Hi all.
Roger, it's good that you got a temporary placard. Don't feel bad about it. It's temporary, and you need it. I'm hobbling right now, but it shouldn't last more than a few days, but I would get one if I needed it.
We had a tornado warning yesterday afternoon. We didn't get the tornado, but we did get a good rainy squall. Beautiful and sunny today.
Irene, hope your PT was good. Nice that you get a mani-pedi so often. I guess we all have our indulgences...mine is the massages!
I know Jo must be having a wonderful time in England and visiting with family. Enjoy!
I got my hair refreshed and tested out a style for the upcoming wedding...looser curls, it looks pretty good.
Happy Friday, everyone!0 -

I don't feel that bad about it, I just wish I had more stamina, I was walking three miles a day a year ago. Now I'm beat from walking through the Grocery Store when my brother drops me at the front door.
It sounds like You dodged a Tornadic bullet. And to cap things off today is the start of Hurricane season
Does that mean You have decided on a style for Your hair ?
Have a Nice Day
Roger
Good Morning Irene and Joanne0 -
good morning, we went for our walk it was nice. Vix sounds like you are getting things done for the wedding sounds like fun. Roger I am sure once you are done with your health issues you are going to be back walking again. hi jo0

Good morning.
Roger, I have ups and downs with exercise. I also hate when I can't do what I used to, or normally do. Something to look forward to when you've recovered.
My husband and daughter liked what the hairdresser did, so I will have her do it again for the wedding. My hair is too curly to bother with on a regular basis, but will go through it for a special occasion!
Hi Jo and Irene.
Off for a mani-pedi today. It's a nice sunny day, high of 82 expected.
Happy Saturday, everyone. 0 -

DoD bought phony military gear made in China, including counter-night vision clothing that didn’t actually work
The U.S. military, government agencies and other purchasers bought more than $20 million worth of Chinese-made counterfeit goods designed to look like domestically produced gear from a company that defrauded the government and helped to orchestrate the counterfeiting process between January 2013 and October 2018, Justice Department officials said last week.

If I said I missed getting out the door early and meeting people along the way ?
I used to stop and talk to the crossing guards when I walked, I passed several.
I hope You are right, I have a feeling that recovery will take a while since the liver will have to grow back to full size.
Have a Good Day

Congratulations on skipping most of the fried potatoes, If I take one bite, next thing I know they are all gone
I have stopped worrying about a touch of salt or butter for flavor over the last year.
That is not good internal bleeding is no joke, at least Your friend caught it in time to get to the hospital.
I am due for an eye checkup, I decided to pass on it for now until I get released and recovered from the surgery.IreneMurman wrote: »good morning, well today I have pt and then eye appt then I plan on doing some yard work.

I have to wonder why they have no idea what with all the tests available.
Sending best wishes and prayers for Your friend.
Good Luck with Your friend and a speedy resolution to her bleeding.

I like this weather, It should mean no AC for a couple of days too.
If I said I am not good at waiting ?
This is not phrased well but I am tired of being tired.
