I can't believe I am so far behind in checking in here. Things have been a little crazy busy lately
and looks like the rest of the week will be the same. I have been eating lunches and dinners out
and choosing the right foods has been a struggle. I got on the scale and was not happy. It
has been making me miserable to see those numbers go up. I have to get a handle on this
and another time of going away again next week for American Thanksgiving and Black Friday
shopping. Sorry I have been amiss in checking in but I hope things will calm down a bit and
I can do better.

Hi there! I have been, and will be, MIA for awhile. I have been moving, and now I'm preparing to have some ankle surgery. I'm setting my calorie limit to maintain for the rest of the year, so I won't meet my goal here (unless it is by accident). I wish you all well on your Fall goals, and I will check in again on the Winter thread next year!0

I'm glad you liked the recipe KeriA - I made it again last night so that I would have something handy to eat this week for various meals.
Goldk - great news at your physical! (not about the colonoscopy -but everything else!)
I exercised like crazy last week and it seemed to pay off with the scale inching down a bit instead of up over Thanksgiving. I actually did a pretty good job on Thanksgiving day, but then the weekend after was tough and I didn't eat the best. I am hoping it doesn't show up on the scale for my weigh-in tomorrow morning cuz I was very happy to see some downward progress on the day after Thanksgiving.
