    138.0 this morning. Lunch with friends...Applebee's puffed up bread w/garlic butter. Scrapped the garlic butter off but could still taste it. Salt.

    What is a falafel? Not good I gather. :wink: I was up this morning Chris. My own fault, ate at a cookie jar!

    Eating at the cookie jar is very dangerous, Shelley!! :o

    A falafal is an Arab food...garbanzo beans/chick peas or fava beans and seasoning rolled into a ball...they look like smallish meat balls...that are deep fried. Four of them were placed in a wrap w/onion, tomatoes, lettuce, garlic sauce. The onions were fresh, and I don't like them unless they are cooked. The wrap was supposed to be pita bread, but due to a misunderstanding, I got a flour tortilla as my wrap. It was not like I remembered, so I only ate two of the falafal balls. Nah!

    I was 138.4 at 5:00 this morning. I'm good with that. The three hours of MORE sleep yesterday put me at 137.6 but I think I may reach that by Thursday...maybe?? Then Friday will be a real surprise...maybe. I seem to be getting rid of .2 a day. Hope it keeps up. Must stick with what I'm doing.

    Love you all!!

    Chris
    Wow!!!!

    There is no chocolate in them! I would be safe with them. :p

    And yes, cookie jars are a bad place to eat. I will stick to falafel balls. Muahaha

    Kathy not snacking as much is good for all of us. :smile:

    Holding steady this week.

    Hang in Paula. I feel your pain. I'm not doing anything right. This to shall pass.

    Determined to use my recent stomach bug as a starting point and continue to eat less. Still resting but better. Plan to walk on the treadmill tomorrow. Kathy, my DD had 2 feet of water in her Baton Rouge apartment. She's blessed with savings and renter's insurance, but a lot of people in my home state are hurting. I thank you for your efforts to assist!

    Kathy you are a good person.

    Clara glad you are getting better each day.

    137.2 this morning at 9:00. Sleeping in is such fun!! We are usually up at 5:00 and out the door walking at 6:30 before it gets hot. Winter will change things up.

    Awhile ago it came to me that the news was upsetting. Now even the weather is hard to watch. :anguished:

    Clara and Kathy, blessings.

    Paula I rarely watch the news. But I am always glad to see news where people are helping others in times of need. Like our Kathy. :)

    Chris I hope the baby comes on DDD due date. Monday would be a great day!

    Glad to see you are all down a bit. Headed the right direction again! <3
