@melaniecheeks Darn it! I hope you have yummy things today!
@mamainthekitchen Most of the kiddos I have had have been diagnosed at a very young age, so it really doesn't bother them much. Plus they like to be able to skip down the hall to the nurse's office during math. I hope your pupper is feeling better!
@Meghan509 Aww! Babies are awesome! And continued prayers for your dad. Sounds like you had a good weekend!
Today was a Monday! Run to MIL's to meet the AC guy, get the boys to where they need to go, then go fetch them back home. Leftover night, for sure! Have a great week y'all!0 -
Good morning and happy Tuesday!
Have to say that yesterday flew by! We had some rain and clouds during the day but by the end the sun came out so we got to have a few nice hours on the patio, before dinner. Supposed to be nice today and throughout the evening so BBQ night! Need to keep powering through the freezer because it is pretty full. Hard to resist a good deal or sale.
Thanks @KateNkognito I am happy for my family! 2021 has been stressful. Positive thoughts and vibes!
Hope you had a good night.
Had the two new recipes I made for lunch and dinner which made our protein percentages go off the charts, but that's okay. LOL Any new WOE is a learning process. Stayed within our calorie limits for the day and are feeling optimistic.
Have a GREAT day and see you soon.0 -
Today looks to be busy. But in a productive way. Feast day, too! I think I am going to marinate some chicken in teriyaki and lime juice and grill it. Maybe rice for a side. And salad from the garden. I have to get a TB test for work. Fun times. House is a mess since I have been gone so much and the teenagers have been left to their own devices.
@Meghan509 Enjoy your nice weather! It is HOT here. I am actually enjoying it after all the rain we had.
Have a great day!0 -
Good morning!
Yes, warm here too, @KateNkognito! Last night we had steaks on the BBQ with brown rice and roasted brussel sprouts. YUMMY!
I have been seeing issues with recipes I load in to MFP - when I put them in to my diary the info is coming through wrong. Hence the reason we thought we had over did it on the protein at lunch on Monday. After second look, we hadn't. The recipe had came through wrong. Patience.
Another nice one on tap here, weather wise. Looking forward to spending time outdoors after work. Yesterday I put cages up around my tomato plants. There are little yellow blossoms on all six of our plants. So exciting! Cannot wait for caprice salads. LOL
Have a great day and see you guys soon!0 -
Morning! Just a quick check in. I am fasting today. Took the dog for a walk and he was having none of it. It is hot, he is black, he turned around after three blocks! I will have to walk myself later. Maybe this evening when it cools off. Have a great day!0

Good morning!
Checking in quickly today! This week has been busy which means that it has flown by! I like it!
Beautiful day here. Sunny and mid 70's F. I have a hair cut and highlights appointment later, so no patio time planned after work tonight. LOL
WOE is going well. Feeling satiated and content. Hopefully the scale agrees.
Have a great day! See you soon.1 -
Today has been super productive. I have almost cleared my To Do list! Scale is going in the right direction, the weather is sunny and warm (HOT), it is almost Friday. I have some steaks and baked potatoes planned for dinner. It got too hot for the lettuce in the garden, so no salad.
@Meghan509 Enjoy your haircut! Even if the scale doesn't like the new way of eating, you seem to be enjoying yourself with the new WOE.
Off to finish up my list and then kick back before I have to run kids to where they need to be. I need to get one of those chauffeur hats. Or maybe I could just wear my tiara for fun.0 -
I’m MIA due to our golden retriever….. she’s quite lame and has been going for tests…hard to leave her alone for any length of time, I’ll check in on weekend,

@mamainthekitchen Hugs and prayers for your dogger. I hope she gets better soon!2

Happy Friday all.
So sorry your doggie is still not well, @mamainthekitchen Thinking of you and your family and sending big hugs from the East Coast to you...
@KateNkognito hope you guys cooled off a little there! We are supposed to be having a cloudy day today but the sun is shining. LOL Going to pop outside for a little break soon.
Happy news here! Down a pound this week! First time in a while that I've recorded a loss, so I am very happy. If I could drop a few more pounds before July 4 I would be thrilled. We are going to be away with friends for the holiday weekend. Bathing suit time. *screams*
Have a great weekend and see you all soon.2 -
Good morning,
Happy Monday. Hope everybody had a great weekend.
See you all soon.1 -
One year later: I am 13.8 pounds lower than I was exactly one year ago. I lost 31 pounds by mid March, but then gained some back at the end of the school year. I am back on track and heading down again. A bit frustrating to be treading the same ground, but I have learned from my mistakes.1
-
Holy Hannah! My house was a mess! I didn't realize how much was out of place until I started putting things away! But we are almost done. (I am resorting to blatant bribery with my children!) I have been fasting for almost 20 hours. I am feeling pretty good.
I hope everyone is having a great day!0 -
Hi guys!
@KateNkognito I know what you mean about frustrating, I am in a similar boat. But, take a look at the big picture and feel good that you didn't gain over the last year. As they say, Rome wasn't built in a day. You got this. Good luck with your fast today!
Quiet cloudy day here. Storms are due today and lots of rain on the way. Means I don't have to water my tomato plants tonight!
Hope all is well with everybody. Things are good here. WOE is good. Still happy with it. Been doing some light fasting most days - eating between 12pm and 8pm give or take. Need to exercise sigh.. LOL
See you soon!0 -
I'm sorta there but not giving it my all, if I'm honest. I've decided to try 4:3, so I fast and TRE Monday to Thursday, with a bit more relaxation at the weekend. parkruns are starting back in Northern Ireland this weekend, so i hope to get more running into my weekly routine.2

Hang in there @melaniecheeks I know the feeling. Been there myself. As they say, "This too shall pass".
Things are going pretty well here. Made a turkey and zucchini skillet meal last night with black beans, for dinner. Really easy to make and filling! After dinner we had some cottage cheese, cinnamon, and sliced apples. Yummy!
Had some rain yesterday but the sun is back out. Looking forward to spending some time outside this evening.
Have a great day and see you all soon.1 -
Good morning all.
Hope your week is going well. Busy but good here.

Morning, all! My house is clean, the sun is shining, I am fasting. It is going to be a good day!
I hope everyone has a great end of the week. My husband's family will be here starting Sunday. Plan is to fast as much as possible, but it sweat it too much until they leave. I am back down into a weight decade that doesn't bother me. Want to be one lower by August 1.
Have a good day!0 -
Good morning and happy Friday!
Hope you had a good day yesterday. Things are good here. Had to run down to the office quickly to do something but back home now. Supposed to be a nicer day later on. Looking forward to being outdoors.
Our tomato plants have little tomatoes starting! Very exciting.
WOE is going well. I am up a little this week. I think its the peanuts we ate yesterday afternoon. BF is experiencing same thing. Both of us have been feeling good and satisfied with this plan. Not going to sweat the number on the scale.
@KateNkognito enjoy the time with your family! We are seeing friends on Saturday night for a little outdoor BBQ.
Next week, on Thursday we are heading to upstate NY to spend the Independence Day weekend with friends in an AirBnB. Four couples, four kids, and three dogs. Woo hoo! The house has a swimming pool and is located on a large property with a barn, etc. Should be nice.
Have a good one and see you all soon.1 -
Happy Weekend! Just fasting and finishing a quilt. People start showing up tomorrow. Should be fun! I hope everyone has a good one! Stay healthy!0
-
Hope you all have a nice week! I am almost done with my quilt. It is supposed to be for my husband, but when I had it on the floor to tie it, the dog really liked it, so they might have to share. LOL This is going to be a super busy week, so I might not post much. Family in and out, kids going here and there. Fun times! Have a good one! Stay healthy!0

Good morning!
Happy Monday!
Hope your visit with family is nice, @KateNkognito. Ooh quilting, how cool! My Mom had a friend who used to do that. She would make really nice stuff to share with our family.
Yes, busy week here on tap. Taking vacation starting Thursday and won't be back to work until Wednesday of the following week. I will be posting very little as well. Hopefully I remember to start the new July thread on Thursday AM.
Our weekend was nice. Looking forward to a nice short week here and then some time off.
Have a great day and see you soon!1 -
Good morning and happy Tuesday!
Hope everybody is having a good week. I am counting the days until vacation / time off.
