    Hi all, still busy busy with work, but did manage to get on the treadmill for a few last night. I really have to make that a priority. I feel better when I get some exercise.

    Cooked the cauliflower and collard greens last night and mixed into my salad for dinner. Will take leftover cooked veggies to work for lunch the next couple days. Have apples and clementines for fruit this week, and always have frozen blueberries or mixed berries with my oatmeal.

    Hello, all!

    I have been resisting taking my supplements of late, so I just timed it to see how long it takes. Under 2 minutes. So I took them today and will remind myself that it is not THAT much work! LOL

    I am also playing a game of "at least 10 minutes of exercise before noon." Today it was a jog twice around the block. I feel ore awake, for sure!

    Mihani, hurray for that treadmill time! And greens and cauliflower sure sounds yummy!

    Also hurray for getting your laundry done. I did 4 loads yesterday. Phew!

    Magic - I love that you are staying plant-based! If some processed foods help you with that right now, so be it.

    Bisky - I loveloveLOVE your rock art!

    Back to work!

    Happy weekend, Magic!

    Ohhh... I got a new vitamin sorter just last week Austin. https://www.amazon.com/Vitamin-Organizer-Supplement-Compartments-Assorted/dp/B07ML4TXY8 I have a few quibbles with the design but I haven't missed a day taking my supplements since I got it! The 7 day organizer that I had wasn't big enough for the larger pills. I don't take a lot of supplements but enough that it is annoying opening the bottles every day. I take B12, D, a vegan collagen supplement, and DHA+EPA. Also have been taking elderberry since the pandemic started.

    Ha! A vitamin sorter is a great idea. I should consider that!

    I had another decent food today. Noshed on some peanut butter and raisins, which I need to cut down on, but overall a good day!

    This has been the week from H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks. I can't wait for the weekend to get some quiet time in the office and try to clear some of the backlog off my desk.

    I have indulged in some crackers here and there, but not too crazy and other than that lots and lots of veggies, fruit, beans and greens.

    Fairly productive few hours in the office today. Haven't been feeling well the past couple days so I didn't stay as long as I wanted. I brought home a big headache of a file to work on here at home tomorrow and will need to do laundry and a little cleaning. Tonight I'm getting ready to make the Oh She Glows glowing spiced lentil soup. It's not 100% compliant since it has coconut milk (I leave out the oil) but it's so easy and soooo good. One of my favorite soups that can be thrown together in no time.

    B - oats with blueberries
    L - skipped it
    D - soup and an apple

    I thought I posted last week but still having computer problems. Phone consult tomorrow with Internal Med. Dr. wish me luck. Enjoying lentils, beans and quinoa we are making in the Instant Pot. Did not think I would want one but it is great. I am going to try a soup recipe eventually.

    Good morning, plant-loving peeps!

    Mihani - I have your vitamin sorter on my Amazon Wishlist and am thinking about it! That or something like it could make mornings faster. I hope you are feeling better.

    Bisky, I hope your internal med appointment goes well today!

    I am having an okay day. Tuesday are a stress day and I just splurged a bit on a helping of pb and raisins. I am checking in and declaring no more of that, as I think it will make me feel poorly, eventually. Raisins are sweet enough to be a trigger food for me. I flush up and suspect trigger inflammation for me. SO... back to the straighter path the rest of the day!

    I've only used my Instant Pot once, Bisky. I hope to get more acquainted with it once the kitchen remodel is done. How did your doc appointment go?

    No raisins and PB today Austin?

    Doing okay here... so busy I will skip a meal here and there, but also grabbing a handful of skinny pop or crackers here and there. Need to find some balance.

    Austin Thank you. My anemia seems to have corrected itself for what ever reason. I have to be careful of dried fruits to.

    Well we were notified of our next adventure. We are being sent to Misawa Japan for 2 years!!!!! Misawa is a very rural mountain area in northern Japan. Beautiful places to hike and walk dogs! Close to places I want to cross off our bucket list: NZ, Australia, Thailand and Vietnam. Lots of Ramen, Tofu and miso soup in my future! This is close to our base. https://www.japan-guide.com/e/e3658.html

    Mihani - I have another appointment this Tuesday. No clear answer on anemia but I have been stable. Kitchen remodel sounds exciting!

    Wow, wow, wow Bisky!! That's very exciting going to Japan for 2 years. I'm not really much of a traveler but Japan is one place I'd love to visit.

    Still swamped with work here, and spent a good portion of the weekend clearing out my kitchen so the remodel can start. That was a chore.

    I'm planning to eat mostly salads, Dr. McDougall soups, fruit, and ready to drink plant based shakes for the time the kitchen is out of commission. Just want to keep things simple.

    Hi Mihani!
    I had a couple of PB and raisins days last week. I'd love to just have no raisins in the pantry for a bit, but my son eats them. It may sound silly, but I put a bright sticker on the top of them, just a reminder to stop and think, and that has worked well.
    I did get a little container for vitamins. Thanks for the idea!
    I hope the kitchen work is going smoothly. It sure sounds exciting.

    Looking for a February thread name -- Frisky in February?

    Bisky -A huge wow to getting to go to Japan for 2 years! What an adventure! The pictures at that liunk look spectacular!
    I am glad the anemia has been stable.
