Well I am late on here..however I have been logging my food and exercise....

Between taking my dog, JJ, to PetsMart for grooming and watching all of the happenings in DC I just did not post here.

I feel the same way that PJSATTIC feels......If I do not really need it ...I do not buy it...Big difference between WANT and NEED...

I hope everyone is having a good Tuesday...:flowerforyou:

Yep, there is a huge difference.. I am learning that. I didn't take the cat to the vet coz the vet wasn't in the office today, must be nice to be your own boss. Have to get up early in the morning and take him before we leave on our trip. He is gonna be so upset, that is, if we take him with us this trip. I know we don't have to do it, but I don't like leaving him home alone. Jim doesn't like leaving him at home with the pet door open for him to go in and out.. coz he doesn't want anything to happen to him. However, even if he becomes a good 'trucker' , three cats and two people is a whole bunch!
anyway, I am staying home even though I have the urge to leave and go somewhere. silly though, since I would only spend money. I may take a ride to the place where there are some feral cats living. Put some food out for them, lots of people do it I think. They need trapping, humanely, and have them all spayed/neutered.
I am going to log my food on here today, and sign off for the week/
Marie, hope your doctor has good news, and I hope that you don't have any problems with your surgery.
take care and stay safe!

My pressure went down in my left eye so he need to do the lasser sugery. I had it once and the lasser wasn't bad but that doc was sure not a good vien insertor. He has to put dye in my veins. to do it. So I will be sure to take my medications so I want have to have it done.
I don't go back for 2 months now. I took the doctor and his staff one of my cards i made and he wanted to know where I was selling them at. They all like it.

Phoebe--- after being on the road all this time you still have the urge to get out. It is suppose to get around 75 here tomorrow so I may get out and do some shopping. I am glad you are logging in your food. Are you surprise how the calories add up It looks like I did not save any caliries for a snack tonight. Oh boy. I have some rice cakes that is 50 calories, I might can squees one of them in. along with some hot tea. Better than nothingand my body yells for food at night.

Hello, Biggramma, Jeffrey, Pat, Ellie. and Caralyn.

Have a good afternoon and a wonderful night..

Caralyn

Hello all,

I hope you are all doing well. My weight is still the same and I know I need to be more diligent at my exercise - which I hate! : (

Caralyn

Hi all!

Been a busy day.

Calie Keep us informed on the eye doctor. Good luck with that.

PJ You should get with an animal rescue group and see if you can help those cats out. There are several rescue groups around here and they do great work.

Caralyn Don"t get down! I have been there. Just focus on the goal. You can do it! Eat apples for snacks. they are high in fiber, a lot of water, few calories, and good for lung health! I eat one before meals. Apples will fill you up before a meal and you wont want to eat as much. They keep me in the poor house but that is another issue! LOL Be sure to track everythng that you eat. You will figure out where to cut. Exercise! Burn those calories! If there is anything that I can do for you just let me know!

Everyone else Have a great evening! We are having a heat wave today! It's up to 18!

Jeffrey

CALIECAT

Jeffrey , I went back and read my entry and I left of f "not" He does not have to do the lasser surgrey. I have been taking my medications like I am surpose to .:yawn: :sad:

And apples are high. I usally the gala apples, the snack sizes in a bag. But I much prefer the the big fancy apples Sometimes I buy one or two and cut them in half. .I ate a lot of the cuties tangerines while they were in seasons. But I don't see them anymore.

Yes Caralyn you can do it . just stay within your calories and it will come off. Maybe slow like me. but it will happen. I am in my second month here and have just lost 5 lbs. It took me forever to lose my first 2 lbs.----Marie

CALIECAT

I lost another lb. Hoo HOOT. Slow but surely.

We are off to WalMart this morning and then this afternoon Will have lunch with my two brothers.
We are going to a caferteria all you can eat deal, inxcluding dessert. Gonna have to be brave and maybe just have a bite of Jerry dessert. See you guys later.

Calie Good news on the eyes! I am happy for you, stay with the Dr's advice! Eat a bunch of salad today! Baked fish and chicken! LOL

I really like those large gala apples too, the jazz are pretty good too. If we shop close around here sometimes we can get them for $1 per pound which is about as cheap as I have ever seen them. Usually they are about $2.99 per pound.

Everyone have a good day!

Jeffrey

BIGGRAMMA

Hi I am back from having lunch with my family. Charlie the one that is so sick looks real good and is in a good frame of mind. I am so glad. We are going to try this once a month. I did real good, I had liver and onions I only eat it out for I can't eat it if I cooked it, had boiled cabbage a salad without dressing and a bowl of fruit salad. They all had pie or custard pudding. But I passed it all up. My meal for tonight will be Fresh strawberries , spinach salad with light raspberrie dressing. And a snack later on.
I had a yogurt and a cup of grapes before we left since it was so late for lunch.
Phoebe you have all the cats with you on this trip. Hope they don't have to go to the potty at the same time. Have a great trip.

Good Morning!

Pretty quiet here. Did a lot of yoga last night and I am sore! More weight lifting tonight. I can't seem to get past this level in weight loss, but I am getting stronger. Kind of irritating to me on the wieght loss. In about 60 days I will be able to get outside and work on my yard, so that will help.

Everyone have a great day!

Jeffrey

She was really proud of me and cut my insulin down a little. I don' t go back for 3 months.Hooray for My Fitness Pal All these years I thought I couldn' lose Thanks guys.
