Morning, friends!
Ruthie...so happy you are about to have a breakthrough to another set of numbers! I wanna be where you are!
Nancy...hope Ben is doing okay today. What do you do when you sit with him? It sounds like a great time to read a good book.
Barbie...I hope your hubs will have a speedy recovery!
Janice...I once tried to grow it out longer and just got frustrated and ended up cutting it!
Marie...looks like your granddaughter is having so much fun!
I'm going to the store in a few minutes before it gets too hot. Have a productive, mindful eating day, misfits!

Marie,Jake has had back problems for decades and until last year, the chiropractor could keep everything under control...when it got worse, his doctor sent him to a spine doctor who recommended the surgery he'll be having next week. The hospital is in Seattle about two hours away from where we live so we'll board the pets and I'll go with him. There is a hotel in the hospital so we can stay there the night before the surgery and I can stay there until he is released from the hospital. The doctor won't know until after the surgery how many nights he'll have to stay.

Marie - You sure are getting some interesting recipes. Love the new hair do. Your grandaughter is cute
and looks like she is having a blast.
Connie - Hello and congrats again on Onderland.
Ruthie - Congrats on the weight loss. I am in the 180's and want to be in the 160's. Still trying
Nancy - I went with my girlfriend once when she had a chemo treatment, long hours of sitting. How many more treatments?
Well what's new with me, we plan on sailing this weekend to make sure all is working well.

Hi everyone,
Connie, I watch tv and have Internet access while l sit with Ben.
Shirley, If this treatment works as the Oncologist wants it to it will continue every 12 weeks for 2 years and will get the Immune Globulin monthly. He will get CT scan next month to see how the lymph nodes are responding.
Hope everyone is doing well. It's so hot and humid that I have trouble getting motivated!!!
Have a good weekend.

Morning, losers! Happy Monday!
Marie..you are quite the cook! Looks good!
I hope y'all had a great weekend! Ours was quiet and the heat and humidity kept us in for the most part. My son and DIL stopped by to give us a jar of Prego spaghetti sauce to announce their pregnancy! I am gonna be a grandmother!!! Yay!!! I will post the pic...so cute. They have been trying for a while and we are sooo happy for them!
I am bouncing back and forth on the scale...need to get farther into Onederland so as not to see Twoterville anymore, but it's taking its sweet time. Patience is crucial...
Stay strong...if not now, when??

Hi,
Marie-You have really been making different foods that fit into your plan, that look good. Rice is a good change from potatoes.
Connie-That's wonderful that your son and his wife finally got pregnant. I guess from the pink ribbon, it's a girl, she must be over 3 months, if she knows the sex. Things seem to be all falling into place for you, with your house built and your moved in, other house sold, into onderland and now going to be a grandma. You deserve all the these good things.
Our tomato plants are really growing, there are already green tomatoes on some of them. This year we are growing the grape and the cherry ones along with the regular size. There is alot of green grape and cherry ones on them, hopefully they will turn red soon.
Nothing much going on with my treatment, I go for a pep scan on July 5th, then the radiation Dr. on the 11th, so right now I am at a standstill.
I hope everyone is doing good, Janice0 -
Janice...they don't know the sex as she is just a little over a month. We thought the same thing at first...then they said the card has blue on it...so it could be either one. We are praying all goes well as they have been trying for so long.
Yes, I have been so blessed in so many ways to include waking up this morning!
Connie0 -
Connie - What fantastic news, now we will be seeing grandkid pictures from you soon.
Marie - Delicious looking meals and easy to do. Excellent!
Janice - Enjoy your time now and glad you are continuing with us on here.
We finally got on the water this weekend, we traveled down the river on Saturday and sailed on Sunday in the lake with lots of wind. We sail Lake Ontario which is where our club is located.
A very hot weekend and we did get rain last night and now the sun is shining again.
Well I have lots of laundry to do so I better get started.

hi everyone,
sorry i have been mia but my kids have been around and i am off my routine! i have still been reading:)
janice, glad to hear there is a plan, thinking about you.
marie, some seriously interesting looking meals, glad you are still on plan.
connie, that is awesome news about becoming a grandma:) super exciting, hope all goes well for them.
shirley, you are always off doing something, sounds fun!
so i am really no where on the challenge this time. i am thinking about doing a metabolic reset like connie did but i just don't think i can mentally handle watching the scale go in the wrong direction on purpose. i do feel as if my body probably needs it, i am eating no where near my estimated tdee and if i do, i instantly gain weight:( just thinking about it at this point....
i cut my carbs a bit and increased my fat, also cut down on cardio a little but i am still at a standstill:(
hope everyone has a great day!!

Hi Stephanie Hey good to hear from you

My food plan is coming along fine. really loving the foods.
have a wonderful day.

Morning, friends!
Steph.. There is a good group here called Eat More 2 Weigh Less where you will find a wealth of info and support on eating at maintenance. It did heal my body and a few months later, after I cut the starchy carbs and cut down on exercise, my body did begin to shed the fat.
Marie..has Jerry been to the doctor? There are meds that can help with memory lapses if he is willing.
Janice...love cherry tomatoes..maybe I should start a garden.
Shirley...your summer sailing sounds like so much fun.
I am going to the pool this morning as I have not been on a Wednesday in a long time. Since I am still bouncing between 198-200, my trainer suggested that I make sure I am getting enough protien. When I went back over my diary, looks like I'm not even meeting my set macros. No wonder I feel so tired all the time!
Hope you guys make it a great day!
Connie0 -
I hear ya Steph, my weight has been going up, since my routines are all over the place this summer.
We leave for our sailing club cruise tomorrow after my hair apt. I have to pack today and will be at yoga this morning. I am still trying to keep up with exercise, but the scale is not cooperating. My mini goal
is September at my next doctor apt. I hope I can lose some by then.
I got on my bike yesterday and did 6.7 miles and my knee was okay but still a little achy. I am doing
exercises to strengthen it.
Have a good day!
Shirley

Hi everyone,
Connie, Congrats on soon being a NANA. Hope all goes well with the pregnancy.
Shirley, I hear you with my routine being all over the place. We have been doing flower beds this week and last.
Getting ready for the July 4th. Our lake community puts on a great celebration with live music, boat parade,
food and a gigantic fire works show to top it off. We will boil shrimp and have friends here for our meal. A lot of work
but worth it. Fortunately have been getting my exercise in most days.
Marie, How's it going with your starch solution? You have some good looking meals.
Hope everyone is doing good.

Hi everyone,
Here is our first tomatoes one grape and one cherry. This is it, other than some green ones. I go Tuesday for my pep scan, I found out they are looking for it in my lymph nodes, apparently it is already in my lymph vasucular space, this means it's more aggressive, I talked to the nurse practitioner there and I didn't ease up.I knew they said it was somewhere else other than cervix that long day. That's why they want to do radiation and chemo other than radical hysterectomy, also the tumor is 3 cinemeters and they are afraid that I will have to go thru chemo and radiation anyway. What a mess. I just wanted to vent.Janice0 -
Here they are I had to change to my tablet for some reason, I hope many more to come?0 -
Janet tomatoes look so nice. enjoy
I keep thinking about you all the time.As Connie says be strong.
Marie0 -
Good morning, losers!
My, my Janice and Marie...you guys are burning the midnight oil!! I guess one of the reasons I'm up so early is that I go to bed early, huh?
Janice...love your kitchen table!! Good you are persistent. The docs need to give it to you straight because you have to be informed...the good, bad, and ugly! Glad you decided to let us be your sounding board!
Nancy..your community celebration is going be so fun! Enjoy!
I am back down under 200 today...need to get farther away to make it stick. I am eating more protein and the full 1500 calories. Time will tell. Going to run errands today.
Make it a great day, losers!

hi all,
yes connie, i have been following all of those em2wl people. it is really interesting. kind of liberating....just don't know if i have the mental capability to watch the scale go the wrong way intentionally...i actually think it is good for you to eat the full 1500! i actually lost weight when we started this whole merry go around by increasing my cals. i really don't think i have had a day under 1400 calls since we began.
marie, glad the starch solution is still working for you! i bet you look great:)
nancy, hope all is well with you and your husband is doing well!
janice, i am sending huge cyber hugs your way. it sounds like you are wrapping your head around the issue and there is a good plan. keep coming here to vent, we are here for you!
everyone, try and have a great day! i have not lost a lb this challenge but haven't gained either:)

Hi everyone,
We just finished cutting the grass and doing other outside chores. It's hot but less humid and a nice breeze
so we decided to take advantage of the nice weather and get some outside things done.
Need to clean pontoon but that will not get done today.
Janice, You can certainly vent all you want to and we are hear for you. I think of you often and send hugs and prayers
your way.
I am watching what I eat and the scales are remaining about the same. I am so much more active lately but seems to
have no effect on my weight.
Have a good day.
Nancy0
