    @maryrobinson40 I had a wonderful day and it is spreading into the evening.
    This is my Facebook post that explains my happiness best:

    I spent some time with Kaitlyn-Michelle today while she cut and coloured my hair. When she was done and the instructor came to sign off on it the instructor told her to take a walk. Kaitlyn was shocked but did as she was told. The instructor proceeded to tell me what a beautiful, respectful, hardworking daughter we had and told me how proud we should be. There may have been tears in my eyes and a hitch in my throat when I thanked her.

    That was so lovely of the instructor to take the time to tell you that. It's like a thank you, job well done, from Heaven :)

    Howdy Y'all! I'm was behind and there are just too many notices to read. I wish you all a wonderful day!

    I did well with my goals yesterday, but I was feeling poor in the evening and didn't eat dinner. I did have a bit of frozen custard, go figure. This morning was a weigh in and I'm guessing it is a false low, with me not eating dinner, but even with that I think there was some real loss. I was down 1.8 pounds from last week. I'm guessing more like 1 pound down in reality. I need to remember this next week in case it looks like a gain. I'm still happy with it.

    J .

    Awesome -- 1.8 pounds!! Great job!!!

    I have to get ready to go but wanted to share this. Michaela wanted to help make supper last night. She needed to put her jewels on first. She made the French fries with my supervision. n4lgzqj9nqoh.jpeg

    OMG -- how sweet is she!! And I love the painted nails and all the jewelry!

    JFT 14th March

    Eat sensibly (under maintenance) Yes
    Vegetables! 3 portions, getting better!
    Back exercises No. Don't know why I keep failing on this
    Bit of babysitting Of course I did this one lol
    Less online time Yes, nicely busy until evening
    March challenge - walk (stormy again ugh) No. No excuse, just felt too tired and lethargic

    JFT 15th March

    Eat under maintenance
    Back exercises
    Make soup for son
    Stay relaxed, do not comfort eat

    Not really sure what I'll do today. Son D is coming for a quick visit, moving some of his stuff back home. My sore throat turned into a stinking cold last night, and there is still a gale blowing outside, so not even sure if I'll go for a walk. I should have been visiting parents today, but will need to stay away from them and baby until the cold is past. So looks like a day inside :)

    Happy Friday!!

    @Snowflake1968 Thinking of you today, good luck!

    Yesterday was a bit harder than usual. I was so hungry last night but managed to stay only 100 over. For my workout I made progress with lower body but my upper body felt so weak. Ah well, at least I still did it!

    Yesterday 3/14:

    1. Stay within calorie goal😞
    2. Go for walk at lunch😁
    3. Finish work at 5:15😑 sightly later
    4. Work out after work 😁

    JFT 3/15:

    1. Stay within calorie goal
    2. Go for walk at lunch
    3. Finish work at 5:15
    4. Cook dinner

    Sorry went missing, again. Can't keep up with all the posts. I read some then had to skip to the end.

    Hope all who are sick feel better real quick!

    Congrats to all who've had successes!

    Let's stay in the game & never give up!-to all who are struggling.

    Many virtual hugs, good vibes, and best wishes to all who are down & anyone who needs them.

    I had to go out of town, quite suddenly, when my Aunt died. Mainly due to the trauma of it for my Mom who has Alzheimer's. Her oldest sister who she had visited not even a week before & looked great! So hard for her to understand & now Mom only has 2 siblings left who aren't well, either. Was 5 siblings.

    I had poor blood results from check up apppintment just before I left town. High cholesterol, blood sugar & calcium. I soo DONT want to start on meds like Lipitor. So, now dieting is quite different for me & altho I already knew that this was likely to happen if I didn't start dieting & exercising seriously, it appears that I had to wait for damage. So hoping that it's not too late to become healthy again.

    Traveling has always been the hardest for me. But this time I stuck to my meal plans pretty well! I was a different person from my past.

    Anyway, so far I've lost 3 lbs in about 3 weeks. And it's easier now, because now my psyche is avoidance for health reasons. My desire NOT to be on more meds is huge even tho it may not matter and I might have to be on the meds anyway. I definitely want to improve my health more than ever now.

    Have been focusing on diet & water. Will add exercise in this week.
    Done great with dieting & altho my minimum on water is 4 cups, I've been making that goal every day since Saturday & most days had more!

    JFT 3/15/19
    Stick with meal plans

    Minimum 4 8 oz glasses of water

    Stay in Green

    Make meal plans for the next couple days.

    Find way to work in exercise consistently

    My interview just got postponed until Monday because the interviewer is sick. Hubby says “more time to prepare”.

    This is true! However, I'm sure we are all taking a collective sigh, perched on the edge of our chairs waiting expectantly to hear from you!!! But, yes, take the time to do some research, develop, and practice.

    Peace and joy.

    Cast list was posted. I am not on it.

    :(

    Ugh. No doubt you are feeling disappointed and like you swallowed a big heavy rock that is sitting in the pit of your belly. So very sorry.
