Liilian our skies are hazy because of the wildfires you are experiencing. If it is this bad here it must be so much worse for you. Hope they end soon.
Grits and sluts They had a picture in the paper today of two pink flamingoes with black armbands in honor of Featherstone's death, the man who created the pink flamingo lawn ornaments. I tried to get it to copy here but was unsuccessful Thought of you.

Happy Independence Day my Friends ! ! !
I was hoping to have time this weekend to check in, read, and respond. But we have been staying VERY busy. I have not heard from my co-worker about his sister yet. But I did hear from MY sister who had exploratory bladder surgery, and was told she has pre-cancerous cells that were biopsied. We have bladder cancer 2 different directions on our Dad's side of the family, so we are praying that the Doctor told her the truth, and that he got it all.
DH has been working, because he needs to fix the A/C in the offices of the "big wigs" while they are gone for a few days. DS and I were part of the Parade in the City where my Dad works. He carried the banner for the Dealership, while I was "forced" to drive a brand new Chevy Colorado. Then we all went to McDonalds and I had the Asian Grilled Chicken Salad and only used 1/2 of the low fat dressing. I want to get DS to the bowling alley tonight yet, to keep his game moving forward for next weekend. DH said 178 qualified for stepladder last year, so I'm confident he is a contender for this year.
I might have to put my weight loss on hold for a week, unless there are some healthy foods that I am willing to eat that will increase my hemoglobin level. When I attempted to donate blood today I was only 12.3 and the minimum to donate is 12.4 !?!?! I plan on putting chia seeds on greek yogurt at least once per day, but if you have other yummy suggestions that don't include spinach please let me know. I have to limit my intake of spinach because it causes kidney stones in me.
Time to get supper started so I can get DS to the bowling alley soon.
Hugs for Everyone ! ! !

Small town Iowa, the parade goes right past my house. Many of the participants toss candy- my girls each got about three POUNDS of candy. I let them eat all they want today, then toss the rest. Not going up to the park for all those activities (barrel rides, pony rides, games) but will watch the fireworks tonight from the park.0

I probably won't get caught up today. DH and I are leaving soon to go see some fireworks. Last time we went was about 3 years ago. We were talking about taking just blankets to sit on or bringing chairs. DH said he'd be comfortable with blankets. Last time we saw fireworks we took chairs because I knew I would not be able to get down to the ground and back up easily. Tonight we are leaving the chairs home. One more perk of losing weight comes to light. <grin>

Hello ladies,
Happy 4th to my fellow Americans! No plans for us tonight as our dogs are terrified of firecrackers, thunder, gun shots or any loud noises. Never know what the neighbors are planning on doing. Some years they have parties at their homes and set off noise-makers and some years they don't. We will hopefully enjoy a quiet early evening and get to spend some time in the hot tub before dark. Had a small thunderstorm just pass through and now the air is clear and humidity and temperature has been brought down to a refreshing level.
Becca - can relate so well as we also don't have the inclination to venture out in the noise and crowds like we once did. Enjoy watching the birds at the feeders and the bluebirds feeding their babies. Beautiful strawberries!!
Pip - great suit and I know you'll enjoy Vegas.
Penny - those flowers are beautiful. Looks like you live in a wonderful place to visit...in the summer!
Lisa - Great picture of the Elk. What a great way to start the day.
Mary - Congratulations on your move. We also were able to do some changes to our home prior to moving in. Made it so much easier. Also, needed to have a fence installed before moving the dogs in so that was a big plus. Nice that your DH will be joining you on MFP. Mutual support and working together makes it easier.
Mom216 - I have friends that walk the Woodrow Wilson Bridge once a year. They walk from the Maryland side to VA, stop for lunch, and then walk back. I think I will make this a goal, probably in the fall when the temps are a little cooler.
Well, DH just stepped in the room to let me know dinner will be ready in 5 minutes. Time to get the dogs their dinner. We all like to eat together.
Will be back later to post my goals.

Now that is a LOT of candy tossing! How wonderful that you have that Main Street USA feeling from your very own front porch. Enjoy the fireworks!

Sometimes being a " big SLUG" is just what you need!
Your creamy spring green strawberry smoothie sounds delicious. Enjoy!

Happy 4th of July everyone! Thanks for all the warm welcomes.
I'm still trying to catch up on posts, but making progress. I didn't take notes so I'm not able to respond to everyone but will respond to a few.
All the ladies with the jewelry trees - You have inspired me. My MIL has lots of old costume jewelry that she will never wear again and I'm going to try to make some trees for all the granddaughters.
Pip - Have fun in Vegas! Love the swimsuit. I'd love to get back into a two-piece but doubt that will ever happen.
Mary/MN - Good luck with your move.
Allison - Thinking of you. Hope you enjoy your time away and while you are away, I hope that your DH realizes just what a wonderful lady he is married to.
I love seeing all the pictures - flowers, views of outdoors, grandkids, before/after. Keep posting them!
Went to our local parade today. My youngest daughter was marching with the HS band. My oldest daughter just graduated high school so was her first time in several years just as a spectator. After the parade, we went to the pool where my daughter is a lifeguard. Planned to be there only a short time but spent the entire afternoon. Weather was great. Only bad thing is that I don't wear my fitness tracker at the pool (that whole water resistant vs. water proof thing) so my step counts are off. Will still try to hit my goal of 7500 steps today.
Hubby grilled out tonight which was great - BBQ pork skewers and corn on the cob. Neighbors are shooting off bottle rockets and scaring the poor dog. He's a 100 lb black lab, but just a little lap dog at heart. We'll go watch fireworks tonight but have to put him in his kennel in the garage so he does not get so scared.

Hi, everyone:
I'm 49 with my 50th coming up next year. I am trying to exercise more and eat better. Last year I tried the C25K app to start running--gradually--and ended up with a stress fracture, 2 weeks on crutches and several more weeks in a boot. I have since gone back to the gym, but have trouble getting there regularly between having a full-time job and two non-driving teenagers at home.
Two things I've done that are positive re: meeting these goals:
1. Started packing jar salads for my lunch at work. It's a bit of a pain getting them ready Sunday nights, but then I have the base of my lunch ready for the rest of the week.
2. Just bought a FitBit Flex and hope that monitoring my steps will help me stick to getting enough exercise
Negative: I do tend to get bored while at the gym or out running, even when listening to music or trying to watch something on Netflix while on the treadmill. Does anyone else out there get bored, and what do you do about it? I love audio books and podcasts, but the spoken word pace is too slow for exercising. I may give that another go, though.
The exercise I really love is ballet. I enjoy pilates. The problem with both is the $$$ and the time to do them at dance or pilates studios. My YMCA offers pilates classes but not at convenient times.
Cheers!

Watched the PBS Fourth of July Pops show from Boston, tradition for us. Volunteered at the YMCA 5K race early am with timing, finish line set up and tear down.........huge turn out!!! Then joined yoga bunch for late breakfast. Nap this afternoon and then out to dog park......Gemma, two shepherds, a pug, and a pit mix tonight. Found out Gemma is unfazed by fireworks. DD has some sort of virus I think, she complains of hurting "all over".....hmmmm.
Margaret........Lady in Gold was one I wanted to see and missed when it was here.
Enjoyed all the pics, thanks to everyone who posted. Used to wear my own bikinis up till I got pregnant at 40.
Poop.......Enjoying your trip from here. Thanks for including us!
Beth............YAY for the loss; we CAN do this!!!!!
Carolnc........Yep, my DD would have laughed too if she dumped ice on me, no doubt in my mind. Time is your friend post op; you will feel less pain, I promise.
Best to all,
yanniejannie

Kathy, welcome....you have come to the right place...I hope you'll come back and read responses from other women on this thread. I can't be too much help because I don't work full time and don't have kids at home but others on this thread do. I walk my dogs every morning while listening to music or podcasts or audio books and go to dance classes three days a week. I have redesigned my days so I go to bed early and get up early enough to walk a lot before having to be at my classes before 9 AM. What helped me was to make gradual changes and not try to redesign my life in one fell swoop. It sounds like you've made a good beginning. Keep coming back and keep an open mind to new ideas.

Wound up doing about 50 minutes of levels 2 and 3 of Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred DVD. The plan for tomorrow is to do a Zumba Gold DVD
After exercising went to the farmer's market. Found these purple peppers which I've never had so decided to give them a try. Got my car taken care, went to Aldi since they're right next door, had to go to WalMart on my way home to get ground beef (and a few other things), came home and made a strawberry bread. I'm thinking that I put too many strawberries in it, made some butterscotch spice cookies for mahjongg Monday, made a meatloaf for Vince, then made another strawberry bread. Have to lector and serve at the mass tonight, so I'd better get dinner ready and then change.
pip - thanks for doing that (sending the friend request). How cool that you got everything into a backpack. Jess can do that, there is no way I could. Somehow I don't think that's CocaCola in that glass. Looks like you're having a fabulous time. Thank for letting us share it with you.
Evangelina - you go girl!!!!
DJ - I swear, the less material in a piece of clothing, the more expensive it is. Just like pip's bathing suit
Beth - happy, happy birthday
Becca - now you have some great ideas of things to put in the strawberries. I made strawberry bread today, but I think I put too many strawberries in it because it didn't rise the way I would have liked it to have. mmmmm...strawberry daquari inside a strawberry...sounds so so good. What a view, thanks for posting the pic
Mary from MN - so glad your hubby is joining you here at MFP (not necessarily on this board, he might feel out of place)
When we lived in PA they were very strict about the types of fireworks you could have, nothing much. Next door to us lived a police officer and next to him was the sheriff of the county. Guess who had the best fireworks display?
Janet OKC - sometimes it takes your body time to catch up with itself. You may not see a loss (you might even see a gain) right now, but next week....watch out! And remember that the scale only reflects the gravitational pull of your body. It doesn't measure your heart.
Everyone, have a great fourth
Sylvia - great price for that bracelet! Happy early birthday
Alison - did you tell your brother that you really do understand what he's going thru because you go thru the exact same thing with FIL?
Cheri in OH - as much as I complain about Vince, what you said about your hubby is exactly how I feel about Vince. He is very intelligent, very good with money (he'd better be, he has a CPA degree), he's funny, says that he'll never grow up. Fingers crossed for you guys
hale - can you wrap a stick of cheese inside a piece of turkey breast? What about those packs of tuna? Egg whites (hard boiled)?
katla - happy birthday to you, your son and daughter, too. Sounds like it's going to be a busy month for you
Look out Vegas --- here comes pip and Kirby!!!!
Rosie - maybe you'll meet up with pip in Vegas??
Heather - great kitchen extension and garden. You SHOULD be proud
Carol in NC - your body is probably tired because it's still healing. I don't blame you one bit for not wanting to go out in public quite yet. I'd probably be the same way
Welcome everyone new to a wonderful place
Vicki - hope you feel better
terri - hope the doc got all your sister's cancer, too. Sounds like you did well at McD's
mia - how awesome that you no longer need the chair!
Tina in MD - where in MD do you start the walk?
Kathy - I do get bored, but find that I need to vary my exercise routine in order to keep from being too bored. Like there is no way I can take a water class 3 days in the week, I'd get too bored. Once/week...that I can handle. I know one lady who has an iPod shuffle that is waterproof to listen to music when she's doing her laps. I do use my iPod to listen to fast-beat music. The biggest problem I find with audiobooks is that I get so involved sometimes that I forget to change speed/incline. DVD's for the pilates? Can you get some of them?
Had most of my calories today in that strawberry bread. You know something? Having all those carbs really made me sleepy, I had to take a nap. It's weird how your body reacts to something that it's not used to.
Michele in NC0 -
hhhey peeps - took a shower, we have complimentary robes. it's nice because the AC is on for kirby so he's comfortable and the robe keeps me warm tomorrow will ge my first day at the pool to relax. plan is to get up walk to the store and get some essentials, check out the gym, who knows, maybe take the day off of working out. i don't have a fitbit and have never counted my steps. there is this one thing on my phone and i guess it tracks it and it said 29582 steps,, i'll take it. who knows how accurate it is. put on my compression socks and calve sleeves. i had some serious nachos, didn't finish them and i don't know what i ate but my stomach didn't like it at all!! it just reminds me, i can NOT eat the way i used to. i couldn't be the nachos because it was too soon after. maybe the mai tai's? i dunno. oh well, early night, vegas will be outside for me tomorrow tomorrow is my moms bday, she'll be 80. nite peeps.0

Michele - Park at National Harbor, a large shopping/dining, etc complex and from there it's just a short walk to the bridge. Link to National Harbor - http://www.nationalharbor.com/
Beth - Happy Birthday!0 -
Call me crazy but I love to see other people happy and succeeding .
Good Evening Ladies,
Janetr, I know it is discouraging when the scale goes up, but for many of us that is just a natural fluxtuation that happens all the time. If it never came back down that would cause concern. You know that the fit of our clothes is a better judge of success than the scale. Hope your 4th is wonderful.
Sylvia, you are such a good grandmother!!!! What a deal on your bracelet. I’d have to tell my DH that it was a BD gift and he had to spend more than $4.74 on my gift. We really don’t do much for birthdays any more, but I’d tell him anyway. Good for you.
Allison, I hope you and our DB can make amends. It is so unsettling to have tiffs with family.
chamblisk, you aren’t as stingy as I am. I’d have found something to serve everyone and saved “my steak” for another time. What can I say? How nice that they will all be with you. Enjoy your time together.
Heather, I’d be a proud mum too. I know they will enjoy this beautiful addition and that’s what counts.
Carol, I cringed when I read about catching your sling on something.
That would probably be enough to make you a little off today. Hope you get back on track soon. I am glad to hear you have conquered the sleep problem. That is so important to healing.
Pip, that’s okay, just make us all jealous as hell! Have the time of your life. How long are you going to be there?
Sicinwa, welcome. This is a very supportive group of ladies and informative too. Please tell us about yourself so we can start to get to know you. We also ask that you sign each post with the name you want to be called, along with a location. Come often and join right in.
Vicki, such a sad situation at work and sorry it brings back such sad memories for you. (((Hugs)))
Terri, sending good thoughts for your sister. Did she get the biopsy results immediately? Good luck with your eating.
Mia, congrats on being able to get down to sit on the ground and even better is to get back up! I’ll say my quality of life has improved since I lost weight. It’s wonderful to be able to do things we couldn’t do before.
Tina, we stayed home with our dogs, also. If it weren’t for them we probably would have gone to watch fireworks. As it was, we got a pretty good show from our front porch. Some people spend a lot of money on those things. It’s so cute that ya’ll all eat at the same time.
Cheri, lookin’ good on those goals. Keep it up.
Pip, all that walking will take care of a few drinks.
Kathy, welcome. This is a great place for support and information. Come often and best of luck with your journey.
Yannie, Gemma is the first dog I’ve ever heard of that is not bothered by fireworks. That is wonderful. What a good girl.
Kayak, beautiful picture. Thanks for sharing.
The weather today has been fantastic. It was beautiful at the beach. It was warm but the sea breeze made it fine. We took the umbrella and DH sat under it for about half the time we were there. Tonight we sat on the front porch to watch fireworks and the temperature was so pleasant. It was just cool enough that DH said he could sleep outside.
I hope you all had a good day and stayed safe. I'm off to bed. See you tomorrow.
Sleep well my friends and have a great day tomorrow.
Words I live by:
Savor. I have to slow down and savor every bite.
and
Opportunity. Each day offers new opportunities for good health and happiness if we just look for them and choose them.
I Love you,
DJ

Pip - for sure "THIS IS THE LIFE" enjoy!!
Janetr OKC0 -
DJ - watch out for the sharks. How beautiful wish I was that close to a beach Just read your post about the clothes being roomier and you are so right, truly my 12 jeans are almost too big in the hips and thighs but I have no waist, never have really, so 10's would not button around me lol Thanks for the encouragement, I'm better after wearing them to the BBQ and only eating part of a grilled hamburger patty (they were humungous) and some fresh tomato slices and baby carrots. AND Jack is calling me skinny mini lol I'm not but it pleases me that he is my loudest cheerleader. 0

Well, another day of reading and not responding. But I sure have had a good time with my family. Have not eaten well plus a very small piece of cake and 1/2 cup of ice cream but the memories are priceless. The birthday girl had her first week of being a junior counselour at camp this week and came back pretty exhausted. Disciplining kids is different than being a camp kid. So she didn't feel well today and she hid her head pretty good getting into our van so we didn't go to Sky Zone. But I had the movine Frozen on the DVR and we had plenty of daytime type fireworks to do so our afternoon was pretty much taken up along with cake and ice cream and presents. WE went out to eat tonight and it was horrible service, but we got through it. Got back home and just had a good time until dusk when we went outside and did our fireworks. When our girls were younger we used to go out and buy about 10 fountain type fireworks but this time we got a big pack from Sams club and then went and got some more at a local fireworks place. my youngest and then my son in law who is married to my oldest set the fireworks off for us. Most of the neighborhood was doing something. We have a school right across from us and a lot of people do fireworks in the parking lot in so we had a lot to watch. yes, the ones the city are bigger but this was fun. The kids had the freedom to run, no traffic or parking to worry about.
My sister only has one grand child and he is 18 and never had a lot to do with his grand parents. My daughters and grand daughter's are very loving and outgoing so she loves to be around them. So she celebrated the birthday with us, the whole afternoon, went out to supper and then was with us when we did fireworks. Her husband is the kind of guy who likes his wife home with him. Now he may be in his office but he likes her home. But he also knows how much my family means to her so he didn't mind that she stayed at my house all day. Trinity really enjoyed her dresses and necklaces, she wore one of them to supper tonight and i would imagine will for church in the morning. So has been a wonderful memory filled day for me.
Nite, nite, Joyce Indiana0 -
marking my spot ...need to go to bed ...exhausted.
Lillian in Smoky West Central Saskatchewan0 -
Michele in NC - thanks for the encouragement, I got feeling better about it as the day wore on lol I put on my size 12 jeans to wear to the BBQ at son's and I KNOW they are loser, so I will "hang tuff" Thanks much, it helps to have someone pushing me in the right direction from behind.0

The neighbor two doors down invited us to their Fourth of July party. I'm not good in big groups of strangers -- I talk to strangers for a living, but don't have to think about what to ask. In social situations, I'm a lump. But I spent the afternoon there, bringing a big bowl of strawberries with a choice of full-bore and lite canned whipped creams and vanilla Greek yogurt.
I also ate a brownie. And all sorts of other "bad" stuff. But I'd started the day with a lot of walking and such, and I took small portions (Oh, okay, I did have two pork ribs) and didn't try everything (not even the red velvet cake). Still, I just barely squeaked by under budget.
"And such" included a Zumba class. I decided, while walking home from the grocery across the highway (I saw they had 2-liter seltzer, which Larry likes, and told him that if he'd pick up the groceries I'd get him some) that with the temp at 86 I'd pay $10.90 to use the gym, and the class was just about to start when I walked in. I have no idea how to figure the calorie burn, but I couldn't do half the exercises and was still sweating huge drops in spite of their a/c.
Ate enough at lunch that I didn't want supper, so that worked.
Lorena - I've got my fingers crossed for your brother-in-law.
I hate it when my nose goes into faucet mode and I have to turn into a nose-walrus with twisted tissues.
Sue in WA - wow, what a productive weekend! Glad you and yours made the trip well.
ithinkicanwin - Wow. I only remember a day or two on a clear diet before a colonoscopy. Good progress on the exercise!
Joyce - I couldn't poke fun of your son for getting lost in his home town, since my first coherent memory is of getting lost in bed.
Evangelia - way to go on the 20k!
Beth - happy birthday!
Good work on the triple loss.
With all three of you working together for your son and your own bodies, it should go well.
Becca - yup. I hope you could tell the tune.
Lovely view, and what a pair of sweeties!
Penny - pretty posies!
And of course you couldn't resist.
Rosie in SoCal - yay! for the loss!
Mary from MN - cool that your husband's joining in.
Lisa - lovely pix. I hadn't realized elk had such small heads compared to the rest of their bodies.
JanetR - Your clothes are telling the truth. You're replacing fat with muscle, which takes up less space and is denser than fat. So the scale can sometimes go up while the waistline goes down.
Sylvia - what a bargain, that bracelet! And such progress!
Cheri - There ya go! And I agree that humor is major.
On the other question, could he pay more attention to you at the door if the mail wasn't right there, its there-ness demanding his attention?
YAAAAY for not using stress as an excuse to eat.
Awwww. Cute, cute wedding pic.
Hale0610 - for a quick protein lunch, what about a wrap that uses lettuce leaves instead of a wheat wrap? Greek yogurt is higher-protein than regular.
Barbiecat - I'm smiling at your tale of two husbands.
KateKyi - <<hugs>>
Chamblisk - you're nicer than I am. I would have thawed ribs and burgers, and kept the steaks for tomorrow.
Heather - that is a pretty space your son and DDIL created.
NCCarol - yeah, serious healing makes you tired. Heck, these days if I just get a bug I sleep a lot.
Funny you should mention sleep interruptions for potty breaks. I decided tonight that I'm going to try just taking sips of water for the last 2-3 hours before I go to sleep, to see if that lets me sleep through the night instead of waking up to decant.
peep - great to see y'all havin' fun.
WOW on the walking.
slcinwa - welcome!
Vicki - ow! Sorry to hear about the cut. And jumping with a sore thumb would be hard.
Oh, my lord. So sorry about your boss's son-in-law.
Terri in Milwaukee - I havae my fingers crossed for your sister.
Mia - No-Chair Victory!
Linda/IA - To get pool steps, you might try putting your tracker into a freezer zip-lock bag, sucking out all the air, and weaving that in and out of a hair-tie around your wrist. Or just hold onto it.
Hey, Kathy ToadlyFrog! I've used the Kindle app on my phone to read while treadmilling or stationary bicycling. I even read whle walking around the neighborhood or the hall at work.0 -
Joyce we have the same here with a school just up the block. In some ways it is more fun than going to a fireworks show. Some of our neighbors came out to enjoy the show. We didn't have to worry about parking and were able to walk home. It is 11:30 and still hear them going off in the neighborhood. Although not so many.0
