Haven't tried the green drinks , Snoozie. I like my veggies in a more solid form
Thanks for the positive thought(s) for today (and the other days) .
I am working on my positive thinking acknowledging that everything I need to succeed is within me and that I have the power 0 -
lol @ the greens ladies.. thanks.... I much prefer mine in "solid" form too Susan; but I'm just not getting enough in so thought I'd try just adding it in via the drink... my first experiments have been somewhat like Time2 lol..... but I emailed a friend who's a bodybuilder and nutritionist and got one to try that may actulaly be palatable... if not, I'll toss the leftover spinach into a salad !! haaaaaaaaaaa:bigsmile:
Susan - you do indeed!!!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:0 -
Just dropping by to say a quick hello. I have been too busy lately...too many balls in the air :-(
But I am still here 'cause I will not quit :-)))
Heading south in 6 days. Taking the RV from the top end of the I-81, I-77, I-26 and I-95 all the way down to the Keys. Got to escape this dreadful and never ending snow and freezing temps right?0 -
Hello ladies, I haven't posted before but I'm loving all of your positive images and quotes. I needed it today so I'm glad I started browsing the boards. You rock!0

Hi Snoozie,
Love your handle! I'm still trying to figure out how to do things on this site. I have to admit I was almost solely focused on logging my food and exercise. Now it is time for me to branch out and meet more like minded friends. I hope this is the start of something great. I love your posts.0 -
:flowerforyou: Welcome Suzy and J!
Glad to have you aboard; things have been a little quiet in here lately; seems like everyone has a lot on their plate (and some are lucky enough to be away in the sunshine.. yes i mean you Seehe LOLOL.. hope you're having a blast!!
I am on the dreaded midnight shift this week; and its still so cold here; had another bout of snow but they are PROMISING temps above freezing by the end of the week.... I am all for the power of positive thinking... but I have to admit I ain't holding my breath on this one!!!
I bought myself a bouquet of beautiful yellow tulips today... just because lol...figured it might help me believe spring may actually arrive sometime!! I keep moving the vase from room to room as I go so I can keep looking at them :flowerforyou:
It's been a bit of a struggle getting back on track; the cold seems to push me to comfort foods (and midnights = lack of sleep and craving crap at 3am!) but have been back on track for about a week and feeling good.... I know I won't get enough fruit and veg in this week butas long as i stay with good healthy choices I'll accept it til next week when I can go veggie crazy!
I wish there was a way to bottle up that great feeling you get when things are on track and we're feeling good about ourselves which makes us want to stay on track - we could uncork the bottle anytime our motivation wanes or things suck emotionally or at work or whatever challenge comes along for us.... just a quick sip and instant I feel great!! Wouldn't that be awesome?? Not to mention it would make me very very rich :laugh:
Hope everyone is doing well.... the end of the month of POSITIVE THINKING is almost upon us; I take a pic of my daily mkotivation and make it my wallpaper on my phone so i see it constantly... remember the "I AM - two of the most powerful words because what you put after them because your reality" ?? I've been using that a lot too..and I AM smiling more and choosing to be happy, because I AM confident I am making progress! And it's all about progress, not perfection! As long as every day I can say I AM doing something positive to get me to my goal, I'm a happy camper!!
Might need to do a roll call soon so hope to hear from the other Hatters when you get a minute!
A giggle for the day.. (since a laugh burns 5 calories!)
Remember that seeing a spider isn't a problem. It becomes a problem ... when it disappears! :laugh: :laugh:0 -
we had a last minute snow storm here in Jersey... gotta love it...details to follow...
details: car was frozen over by ice, had a couple of snow drifts on the way in.. attitude from boss... (more to follow) arrived 45 mins late... of course he reminded me that I'm using too much leave and that I will be in a without pay status if I use too much... he's 35, i'm 50 - think i've been doing this awhile....
and of course he reminded me not to use sick time.. didn't plan on it....
and of course you know that common sense dictates that you look out your window, make a decision... and did he forget about my brain injury from 2010? would he rather I have a seizure driving in... didn't go down that road with him...
thanks for letting me rant...Carol he should be glad I even made it in....
we've even had employees take 8 hrs sick time when you know that they are staying home because of the snow - of course can't prove it...
ended up 45 mins late to work.... ugh.... better than not at all... and of course my "boss" reminded me of my low leave balance..... and he cautioned be about leave without pay...
car was frozen over and drifted snow... would he rather I take the whole day off?
sorry for the cut and paste... details from a couple of postings to a couple of different pals....:grumble:
Snoozie - welcome back - thanks as always for your encouraging words...:flowerforyou:

sometimes you just have to close your eyes, count to ten, take a deep breath, remind yourself you wouldn't look good in prison stripes, and just smile at that dumba$$ and walk away...

Thanks for the reminder snoozie - unless, of course they come vertical instead of horizontal??? giggles.... hmm.... by the way, whoever decides to make a cake for me, please make it carrot.... and place a file in it too....:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
And if anyone has access to any good drugs - ie from CO.....place in brownies.....:blushing:
Gotta love 'em....don't have to like 'em....
Man oh man....:noway:
I think he forgot to read the last policy memo that talked about safety and weather... which basically states that if its not right, you should err on the side of caution... and oh by the way, sent the new policy memos which require his signature (change of command thing)... into his office last July.... still waiting for a signature.... and we have an inspection coming in May... if we don't pass, not my fault...(for this one anyway)....
