    I am going to have one more day of light eating/no alcohol and then weigh myself to see the holiday damage on Tuesday. :o

    While DSIL and boyfriend were here we arranged to go up to London on Friday this week to meet them. We will go to a famous Soho pub at 4 pm and then on to the Israeli café. :D I will look to see what exhibitions are on for DH and me to go to before hand. Lovely!

    Gayle- I had asked everybody to join the 40 pound loss challenge by the end of May. You can join in with us on this thread. I will post the challenges and we can encourage each other here!

    Lenora - that page that I sent you you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom for the different thread. Check that out and see if that works. Otherwise, I know Tiffany can help you.

    Well, I didn't do as well on my December goals as I usually do. But in the interest of being kind to myself I will not beat myself up, it really was a difficult month on many fronts. Looking forward to January. I need to reflect more on what I want my goals to be.

    Happy New Year to all!

    Lenora hope eye issue quickly heals. Do you wear contacts?

    Allie I think you are smart to do your normal routine until you get your ducks in a row. It must be hard, but know I am praying for you during this time.

    Happy New Year Friends!

    Posted this yesterday:

    KINDNESS and logging are my resolutions for 2017

    I was already thinking about kindness when I saw on the news that at Times square they are going to be dropping notes about being kind. It was also a topic for Parade Magazine. Doesn't surprise me after 2016.

    The mantra is don't be mean in 17.

    Thanks for the reminder on how to change colors. I put it in my word documents.

    :heart: Margaret

    Would like to start exercise from couch to threadmill and kettle bell etc. I'm 55 and need to exercise more, any suggestions! Any and all ideas are welcome.
