    Hello all. I think I’m going to try the ACT HAPPY thing. Even though I’m cleaning the house today and am not sure if I’ll have the chance to go for my walk.

    Hope everyone has a good day. 🙂

    Hello everyone. I'm 100% a serial starter...for about 40 of my 46 years! I'm taking it 1 day at a time. Trying to get some movement each day and staying within my calories. Hoping this is the lifestyle change I can stick with!

    Hello Packerfan and ProudCheesehead 👋🏻

    I am getting here in the afternoon after surviving stuff in the morning. I am tired, so just saying Hey.

    Happy Friday the 13th. It's chilly and rainy here today. Usually a heavy eating day! Will try to resist though!!

    Good evening,

    Scale up and lets see, more sugar and less walking - yup I figured it out.

    Cold enough here to use blankets and man do I sleep better.

    I bought a sign for work Halloween decoration that says - No trespassing We are tired of hiding dead bodies. I am allowed to put it up. I asked before I brought it in. I figured if nothing else I can stick it in my window at my place.....

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Hello all~~

    It's gloomy and raining today, so it's harder than usual to find any motivation to do anything. Blech.

    Haven't walked in like a week. Ugh. Life just gets in the way. 😡 but I know I need to just get out of the house. Hopefully I'll get back into the swing of things.
    Have a great day everyone!!!

    Good evening,

    Got my 6k steps in - stayed after church to help prep the room for Food Pantry week. I then got an apt for covid shot booster tomorrow in the afternoon. So I will get my steps in doing bagging for the Food pantry and get my shot taken care of.

    I decluttered my bedroom floor (95%) and got to vacuum. I am doing a little a day - tomorrow and Tuesday so I do not hurt myself. I am in the closet and I pulled something off a plastic storage container and down came the container. How I came out unscathed I dont know.

    No soccer to watch until next weekend, so maybe I will read.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning all 🌼

    Sara - you got a lot done this weekend - good for you. I'm glad that the storage container did not bonk you in the head! Oy!

    Packersfan - you and I both need to walk! What time is a good time of day for you to do it? For me it's now the afternoon, with the cooler temps.

    Good evening,

    Will get my 5k today as my bedroom now offers me more steps in my "path" around the place.

    Worked bagging food for pantry tomorrow and got Covid Booster. I work for a health agency and many people must take it. It is just a good idea for pre existing conditions - and I am "morbidly obese " ( I am also morbidly attached to sweets!!).

    Made Korean beef with rice, vegetables and a poached egg on top. Good stuff and healthy. One is ready for tomorrow and 2 servings in freezer.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Oooops...a little late getting here today....

    Sara - good for you on getting that covid booster √
    The Korean beef with rice and egg sounds wonderful.

    I managed to do my hair coloring today and order a large rug for the living room. I had been waffling about the rug for a very long time, but I finally did it.

    Exercise didn't happen today. Decent food did happen today. It is what it is.

    Good evening,

    Took my fear of driving, opened the car window, listened to good music and made it to my Mammogram appointment and back. We shall see what we shall see.

    Pounds up steps down hmmmm.

    Dragon land again tomorrow, so I will make sure to get my steps in.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good evening,

    Set up my big bills on auto pay on the bank website. I have predominantly been good but the brain is slipping and late fees add up.

    Got my 6k in today. Korean food on tap at the cafe, so leaving what is in my freezer there. I can only eat the same thing so many days a week. I remember those pizza weekends trying to get papers done for school.....

    Tomorrow is supposed to be the last warm day. Lets hope so. It is time for Fall to find us.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good evening,

    Came home and slept off/on for 3 hours. When I get to sleep will be interesting.

    Happy Thursday. Weather turning to Fall like temps finally. Just in time for hot chocolate.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Happy Friday everybody 🎉

    What do you have planned for the weekend?

    I should see what's at the farmers market tomorrow morning and get some veggies in the house.
    Sunday is a vow-renewal celebration for some friends.

    Happy Friday

    Came home, slept. Now time to eat a little something, "leap" into the shower and then read a good book.

    I have no plans so we shall see.

    Wishing all a great evening. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning all~~

    Sara - what kind of soup are you going to make?

    I have to go to an anniversary celebration being held at 4:30PM today.
    Sunset will be at 6:30PM, so if I leave the celebration then, I should make it back home before it is completely dark. I cannot (comfortably) drive at night because of old age and vision problems.

    Hi All!


    Had a wonderful trip last weekend, been busy with work, going to the gym and life. Ate a lot of good food and NY bagels. Only gained 0.2 pounds. But back into a better routine this week. Did Zumba this morning, Monday I have Bible study, Tuesday vets, Wednesday?, Thursday Aqua, Friday?, Saturday Aqua and Sunday Zumba. Plan on walking my mile with my coworkers during lunch this week pending weather. Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

    Good morning all~~

    Missy! Your schedule is inspiring me! Is your Thursday and Saturday a water exercise class?
    How are your mother and grandmother doing?

    Sara - I trust that your weekend was good. 💗

    I've just freshened my Do List. Walking is the centerpiece of the day.

    Morning!

    Lana- yes Thursday and Saturday are but I may have double booked Saturday so Saturday may be TBD. Mom and grandma are doing great! Praying it continues that way! I’m finding to do lists are necessary. Brain isn’t remembering everything with so many things going on.

    Good evening,

    Soup was potato, onion, cheese and chili beans - chicken in freezer was open and not useable.

    Soccer - grandma's eye candy continues. Nice way to end day. :wink:

    Got 5k I dont stress, I figure some days are just going to be that way.

    Lots of rain yesterday, and I see nothing in the 80s this week - so maybe autumn has stayed.

    Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

    Good morning all~~

    Sara - bummer about the chicken in the freezer, but your soup sounds gooooood!
    Yes, hopefully your area is finished with the high heat. Enjoy~

    Missy - ah, the Do List! A friend and foe both!

    Time to eat lunch and get going.

    Good evening,

    Can finally dive into my non summer wardrobe.

    Got 6k today even if I did have to take some in house laps.

    Hi everyone, starting back up again after a long hiatus - fell off the wagon when my mom passed away last year and haven't been able to get it together. Trying again because I have hit my emergency weight, nothing fits anymore, and I'm tired of being so out of shape! 🙈 Determined to get back on track. Most of the friends I had have gone inactive, so I'm looking to connect with new friends, especially the over-40s! Please feel free to send a friend request and I will do the same. Thanks!! 🤗🤗🤗

    Joolie - Welcome~ Condolences on losing your mother--very difficult times...
    Glad to hear you are starting back up again!

    Sara - Do you remember the Saturday Night Live skit on "sweater weather"? Google it....
    Yes, it's that time of year~

    What's for lunch? I must go hunting in the kitchen....
