    12 hour shifts all weekend kicked my butt. But it's over now and looking forward to a short work week this week with a 5-day weekend coming up.

    Ginny: Popcorn is an issue with me too. But you're right there are far worse things to cheat with.

    Hi All
    I was out walking today, slightly better conditions than Yesterday for walking :)

    I pulled the next 5 days food from the cupboard and created menus for those days. I have a couple of frozen dinners and 8+ Frozen Lunches left that I am working on using up. My Order closed out Sunday at 6PM. I wonder if it will make it here before the Labor Day holiday. My NutriSystem orders have been processing slower than When I started with them.

    Have a Great Tuesday

    Hi All
    I was thinking it might be time to solicit suggestions for the next Challenge. This one ends on the 13th :)

    Thank You

    Good job on the 2.5 pounds, Roger. :)

    100% 8/30 WEIGH IN: unchanged

    No loss/no gain again. Just can NOT shed that last 1 pound with my travels. Gracious.

    Hi Flo
    Thank You for the kind words, the skeptic in me thinks that this weeks loss will be somewhere between Zero, Nil, None, Not at all and not much to compensate :)

    It sounds to me as if it could have been worse.

    Good Luck
    RogerToo


    LOL! That's how I feel, too, Roger. None, nil, zero, not at all. :)

     I was having the same thought Roger. I have one suggestion, it's not original I borrowed it from FitBit.

     Back To Fit (back to school theme)

    Hi All
    I Went out walking earlier today, 5:21AM, It was better than yesterday, Whew!

    several blocks from the house a Walking Appetite AKA Deer ran out of a front yard on down the side street heading towards the brook over that way. We suspect that they live in the brush and trees along the brooks here in town.

    I see that I have a NS Shipment out for delivery today or tomorrow, that answers my question will anything ship before the Holiday. It did not indicate what is out for shipment unfortunately, Frozen, Shelf Stable or both. I seem to only get a email on whichever of them is the first to ship :)

    Have a Nice Wednesday

    Hi Mary
    Good idea, I may not be 100% today myself, I dumped part of my Breakfast on the counter and had to do a redo so I am up to high on some of it and will have to figure out how to compensate.

    I have started a Theme Suggestions document to keep track and have entered Roger's suggestion and Your Vote.

    Thank You

    9/1 - 100%

    I'll try to put my thinking cap on to come up with some more ideas

    Roger: Maybe you can make up the difference by choosing lower calorie items for the rest of the day.

    Popcorn gets me too, but adding butter, white cheddar seasoning and grated parmesan to "diet popcorn" is my worst offense. Have some diet popcorn in hubby's carb cabinet, but without the butter it's no good. We wanted to go to the movies this weekend, but I was happy we never did because I would face the dreaded movie popcorn cravings. Just thinking of the movies makes me want some. I would probably go to the movies *just to have popcorn. Best not to tempt the dragon.

    Feeling pretty solid on a green streak. Feeling like really getting the weight loss show on the road too. Someone asked me today at my clinic how LONG I'd be on the diet. She is week 1. I said at least 6 months and she about fell over and said "no way no way I couldn't take it". I responded "why, it's just time". I'd rather spend the time getting skinny than being in constant shame as a horribly fat version of myself.

    Hi All
    I was walking this morning, Ended up walking Three miles & 6 Cents due to having to change routes on the fly. We have not had to much lawn mower noise lately, Most of the lawns are a nice brown due to lack of rain :)
    Some leafs have been falling already too, possibly the same root cause.

    Whee, My Delivery is out for delivery today, I will find out what it is when it is delivered, SS, Frozen or both.

    Have a Great Day

    Hi Roger
    Thank You for being creative that way.

    I was over a SC due to my oops so I only had a PF, Light & Fit Greek Yogurt, as my mid morning snack and that got me back on track versus the On Plan SC & PF, the SC being had earlier at Breakfast.

    Have a Good Day

    9/2 - 100%

    From my calculations, the next challenge runs from Sept. 14 - Oct. 25. So that almost leads up to Halloween. But I think it is too early to talk about Halloween as a theme. It doesn't feel like fall yet but another suggestion is:
    Fabulous For Fall

    Not to think too far ahead, but the next Challenge after that falls right in place for a Thanksgiving theme.

    Perhaps I should have voted after both choices were available... : - ) My preference is Fabulous for Fall. It's my favorite season of the year, after all...

    Hi All
    I was out walking this morning, I stopped at the 7Eleven, No lids for the extra large coffee cups so I suggested pulling the empty cups until they have lids, It was done right away. Why it did not occur to the clerk, I do not know?

    Yesterday after the bank opened I walked up there, 4 blocks each way in addition to the morning walk. Then my BBB came and I spent some time checking it in and marking it. I marked it with a delivery number and calorie count on each item. This way I can look in the cupboard and pull a balanced days foods. Thus if I have a High calorie dinner I can look at a low calorie Breakfast or lunch. This works for me since I lay out my food ahead of time

    I am getting ready to head off to CostCo for Frozen vegetables and Dannon L&F greek Yogurt 16 pack and maybe Fruit.

    Have a Great Friday

    I was bad today. It was my mil's bday, so even though it started well, it was all downhill from there. Took her to lunch at a place called The Floridan Palace, beautiful, elegant an d great food. I asked the waiter what he thought would be the lowest of calorie. He recommended the seafood crepes. They were yummy, and I didn't eat the whole thing. Filled up on the salad and broccoli, but it was served with fresh hot bread. The crepes also had a sauce on it. I only ate half, but I'm sure it was more than I should have had. Then I went to my sons, and it got worse with going to Hooters. Wings were delicious but I know it was bad. Back to working on plan tomorrow.

    Hi All
    I was out walking again, Later today a recycle run, Need to check and see if they are open first. It is cooler this morning than yesterday, still feels a bit humid however.

    I asked the clerk at the Quick Chek, Who gets stuck working Monday? His answer, Everybody, No Holidays here.

    Have a Great Weekend and Holiday

    Hi
    The Fresh hot bread smells and tastes so good, It is hard to resist once it makes it to the table. I think I would have scraped off the sauce to just leave a taste. Now You know that the next time You go there to ask for the sauce on the side and no bread please. That is how I have learned to do it. I get a Open Turkey Sandwich with the gravy on the side so I can get a taste and not too much and Plain Salad. If I have a choice of potatoes I get then to go and my brother uses them.

    It is sort of amazing to me how Wings have changed, It used to be at one time they were considered a second class part of the chicken, now they are fairly expensive and in demand.

    Cheers
