GOOD MORNING Hatter Friends!
And to those north of the border Happy Thanksgiving,
Yesterday I read that Johns Hopkins study says if you want to lose weight the magic number is 9. Nine servings of fruit and vegetables a day. So my challenge is that we focus on getting those 9 servings. It sounds like way too much, but I can eat 5 veggie servings in a big salad. But looking at my diary I rarely hit 9.
Does anyone remember the Epcot attraction where the kitchen sang veggie veggie fruit fruit! That will be this weeks mantra.
This week's loss of 3 pounds was brought to you by my sponsor-removal of a cracked tooth- not recommended.

That sounds like a plan, Janet....the veggies & fruits...not the cracked tooth! Sorry to hear that part.. hope it's fixed by now. I may try to make it a no meat , no processed carbs week also.......that will be hard, though.0
-
Uh, oh, Janet. ...I just realized I'm going to blow up my plan already...I've got cheerios for a snack...but, I could eat strawberries with them...that'll cancel them out... ; )0

Good Morning everyone,
Janet- Count me in. I really need to work on this so it will be a good exercise for me. Great job on the loss but sorry it had to be such a "pain"...lol
T2- some carbs are ok and Cheerios lowers your cholesterol...at least according to the claims..
Have a great day!0 -

Morning Hatters!
Janet, thanks for starting a new week for us!
Tonya - ditto on the huge congrats, but will pass on the method that helped please? LOL
I've been making some changes since the start of the month, still trying to find the formula that works for me, and I'm hoping Wed's weigh in will show see if I'm heading in the right direction; and while I'm totally up for the challenge of upping my veggies, I'm avoiding large quantities of fruit for the moment because of it's naturally high sugar levels; I do have one a day right now, but have to pair an apple with some nuts, and I haven't figured out a protein that goes well with an orange yet LOL.
But I'm definitely in for the veggies; I have 4 servings of them planned for today! Better get cracking tho; I've been running a little late the past couple of days and would like to get in a little early today so I can send my dayshift cohort home for her turkey dinner a little early!
Have a great week Hatters!!0 -
Happy Thanksgiving to our North of the Boarder Ladies !!!
Count me in on the veggie/fruit challenge !!! I have really been suffering since the summer garden is no more. I need to step up for sure.
I stumbled on an apple chart over the weekend and talk about feeling stupid, 51 years I have been eating apples. I have seen all the different names and kinds but for some unknown reason it never occurred to me that they have DIFFERENT TASTE !!! DUH !!! I know your laughing at the wacky teacher:huh: but honestly it has never crossed my mind. I know if the past sometimes I just loved apples and other times I just couldn't make myself eat them. Well I have now discovered I am a sweet apple person. I purchased 3 yesterday and have eaten 2 already this week. Needless to say I had to swing back by the store today. I purchased more gala's and some fuji today. I picked up more peaches also they have been yummy the last couple of weeks along with some wonderful green grapes.
Well considering in the last two weeks I have had two steroid shots and still lost two pounds this week after stalling last week I am feeling better about numbers and not wanting to eat everything in sight or not a good choice.
Snoozie I love the quote today and relate so much. I keep pushing my measuring day ( haven't since July sometime) but my husband keep asking me about it so I may have to give in this weekend and get that tape measure out. Some of the things I have purchased just before school you can see a difference in how they fit.
Well I am tried and going to call it a night early tonight brought papers home to grade but taking them back with me in the am ungraded. I just needed a break tonight and I took one !!!
Wishing each of you luck on the challenge !!!0 -
Had to come back to post a stumble across.
Today is my tomorrow. It's up to me to shape it, To take control and seize every opportunity. The power is in the choices I make each day. I eat well, I live well, I shape ME !!!0 -
LOVE it TA!!0

Good morning, everyone!!
It is such a glorious day!! the fall weather has finally made it down south, for a few days anyway... gotta enjoy them while I can , You never know when it's going to change...
Janet, I didn't make it too well on my reply to your challenge....
1: I didn't have enough veggies on hand to eat only them and the lunch room veggies looked too sad and warmed over...
2: As Snoozie suggested, I need protein ..I know it makes me feel satisfied and not hungry later...
But I will be eating more salads...it will help me get in some good veggies... I can't get past eating full fat Ranch dressing... I need a good substitute..I don't like fat-free Ranch too much, I'd rather just use less of the regular.. having said that.....
...........I'm having trouble with my fat percentages being off the charts...even my sunflower seeds have a high fat content ( which I eat as between meal snacks to curb the hunger monster..) anyone have any suggestions of low fat ideas??
I hope everyone has a wonderful day..

SOOOOO late as I had a n early physio then did groceries and still have to shower and head into work, but wanted a quick read of our Hatters to inspire me for the ****!
The veggie challenge is for the MONTH of october, isnt it???? (i hope so anyway lol... caause im not going to be able to get them all in every day... T2 will try to sneak in at work and see if i can comup with any ideas but if not tonite when i get home will see what i can do...
hope all the hatters have a marvelous day -0 -
I am also learning the different kinds of apples, it is so disappointing to bite into a pretty looking apple and just get mush. My favorite apple used to be Winesap, but I haven't seen them in years, I wonder if Winesaps just lost their popularity or maybe they are all going to apple juice.
Just wanted to clarify that I was not suggesting that the only thing anyone eat is 9 servings of fruits and vegetables. That is just one of the Hopkins recommendations for preventing Diabetes and High Blood Pressure. I know I am not the only one who joined MFP because sugar and blood pressure numbers were at the point where the doctors were telling me that I was going to be on medication if I did not do something. The report is quoted below. I signed up for the Hopkins health alert on weight management and this was just the first overview material. IF there is anything else that they send that looks helpful I will pass it on.
I absolutely agree that this is the time of year when it gets hard for me to even get 5 fruits and vegetables, much less 9! Today was spent mostly on the road, so I was lucky to get in 3 servings-2 of watermelon and 1 banana. Thats why challenge is an accurate description of my efforts, its not something I will find easy, now that there is little at the farmer's markets.
Another challenge for me is finding non-fatty protein. I really wish I didn't gag whenever I tried to eat any fish except for processed tuna. I eat a lot of nuts!
Eating To Prevent Type 2 Diabetes
• Maintain a desirable weight (a BMI of less than 25).
• Limit saturated fat intake to nomore than 10%of total calories (less
than 7% if you have high blood cholesterol).
• Limit dietary cholesterol to less than 300 mg per day.
• Get 20 to 35 g of fiber per day; include several servings of whole
grains and plenty of soluble fiber.
• Aim for nine servings per day of a variety of fruits and vegetables.
At least one vegetable should be dark green and at least one fruit
or vegetable should be orange or red.
• Choose an overall balanced diet that emphasizes fruits, vegetables,
and whole grains.
Eating To Prevent High Blood Pressure
• Maintain a desirable weight (a BMI of less than 25).
• Limit daily sodium intake to no more than 2,300 mg a day, which is
the equivalent of about 1 teaspoon of table salt (sodium chloride).
If you already have high blood pressure, restrict sodium intake to
1,500 mg or less each day, about 2/3 teaspoon of salt.
• Increase intake of fruits and vegetables to get enough potassium.
Aim for nine servings per day.
• Consume two to four servings of fat-free or low-fat dairy products
each day for adequate calcium and protein.
• Include plenty of whole grains, fish, and skinless poultry.
• Restrict intake of fat, red meat, and sugary foods and drinks.
• Limit consumption of alcohol to no more than one drink a day for
women and no more than two a day for men. One alcoholic drink
equals one 12-oz beer, one 5-oz glass of wine, or one shot (1.5 oz)
of 80-proof spirits.0 -
Evening Hatters;
long shift; but very glad to hear it's the month for the challenge of upping our veggies and fruit Janet LOL.. phew! I did good in the veggie dept and I have learned where all the bathrooms are in the new building for my water intake:noway: but am def going to have to work on packing healthy stuff that doesnt have to be heated or cooked and that i can eat at my desk; best laid plans go out the window sometimes!
Janet - love the info you passed on, thank you! I read the Blood Sugar solution by Dr Mark someone (doctor recommended); he's a little over the top on some things but basically has the same ideas as the JH one - if only my mouth listened as well as my brain sometimes!
I am an apple lover as well; and heard the other day on the news a new study says an apple a day does indeed keep the doc away ... for more reasons than one. But I confess I'm a fan of the Macintosh - I want my apple to "crack" when I bite into it; I dont like the softer ones and a granny smith sometimes is just the thing to mix it up.. but I rarely try new ones either; yet there are so many I really should grab one once ina while just to try! I do NOT like the ones with the little bumps on the bottom lol.. cant remember what they're called but they're too mealy and mushy for my taste.. I just bought a 3lb bag of apples the other day so it must be apple-itis in the hatters!
Get to sleep in tomorrow; no appts b4 work so I'm a happy camper! Hope everyone has a great night and had a great day!
*(p.s.) sorry about the horrible typing earlier.. i dunno why it blanked out "day" .. cant imagine what i must have typed to have it blocked? :smooched:0 -

I have just changed my morning greek yogurt. Dannon has a new one that has 10 less carbs, 4 additional grams of protein, and 20 - 30 calories less. The protein helps me feel full longer also so I am pleased to find a new and better option. There are only flavors but I am hoping they will add more. I add 2 tbs of bare naked granola and that's breakfast during my planning hour most mornings.
Sadly I must report I failed the first day of the 9 challenge. We are working together to have more relax time and that means more crockpot meals. Tonight was crockpot pork loin in gravy served over wonderfully dreamy white rice (oh sorry I miss it soooooo ) and purple hull peas. Even had enough to make a freezer meal for the husband and me when the girls are visiting my daughter on weekends. This one is a keeper for rotation.
Last night was CP buffalo chicken served in wraps with cole slaw. In the fridge and waiting for morning is bourbon pork loin with sweet potatoes and apples for tomorrow night. It takes 15 minutes or so to get things ready sit it in the fridge then all we do is take it out and plug it in before going our ways the next morning. It has been a blessing the last two nights not having to rush in and cook each night.
I did good over the weekend with school planning and after leaving school the last two days I have not had to do any work at home. With Friday and Monday off I am hoping to get at least two weeks of plans done so that I can continue this pattern and enjoy more time with the family. Things are still crazy with the students not studying but I am just going to do the best I can and trying baby steps to get them to where I believe they should be, but all in all the stress is much better.
Well time to get in bed hope everyone has a wonder Wednesday !!!0 -
Gail, how about a protein shake? I've been enjoying "Click" which is a espresso protein powder. I mix it with 1 cup of water and some ice. It's 20 g of protein and 1.5 grams of fat. Another favorite is egg whites. For breakfast I mix them with 1/4 cup dry oatmeal and microwave it for 1 min 45 sec, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of raw sugar and some fruit. I know it sounds gross, but it's actually very yummy, filling and low fat. I also make some breakfast muffins with egg whites, heart healthy Bisquick, turkey sausage and cheese. They're about 13 g of protein, and pretty low fat. Let me know if you want the recipe.
Janet, I love apple season!! My favorites are Honey Crisp but the other day I had a New Zealand which was great!

I like the greek yogurt...haven't tried dannon....yet... I will .
Merobi, I would like the muffin recipe...I jus bought a big box of bisquick for waffles...
I have tried a protein shake for breakfast...but something about it doesn't agree with me...I can handle them better at night...but I'm a texture type...gotta have CRUNCH!!
I'll try the oatmeal , too....
Great ideas , thanks for them all...
Hi Ho, Hi Ho...off to work she goes........

Ms Time2 yes em there is plenty !!! This was my first time to try sweet potatoes and apples with pork after all the years of seeing it in magazines and on tv. It was good and we will have it again. The little one wouldn't eat the baked apples since apples aren't suppose to be baked LOLOL we will have to work on that.
Crockpot is loaded and in the fridge for the morning again. This time a beef roast with potatoes and carrots with a can of cream of mushroom and two packages of low sodium beef gravy.
If anyone has a good crockpot recipe do share. We are truly enjoying not rushing in at 5, cooking, lunches made, bathes, homework, and the little to bed by 8. I could get use to crockpotting 2 or 3 days of the week :happy:
Well I do have a few minutes work tonight but nothing much, just need to add a few questions to a test for tomorrow then a little CSI before bed.
Made it to 6 fruits and veggies today not counting the sweet potato since its more carb.
Everyone have a great Thursday its my Friday and I may just float to work !!!0 -
When you feel like quitting, think about why you started !!!!!!!!!!!!!!0

My favorite crockpot recipe: Turkey Barbeque Take a turkey breast, one quartered onion, one large can of diced or crushed tomatoes, and one small bottle of barbeque sauce. Cook on low in crockpot overnight. In AM, remove skin and bones. Cook on low for 24 hrs or so total. Eat on kaiser rolls or over rice. I make this for parties or freeze the extra. It makes a lot. People have argued with me that it has to be pork, but it's turkey. I put it on after dinner and it's ready for dinner the next night.
I haven't been writing much, but I've been following everyone's posts and cheering you on. I am ten days post-op and feeling great. Surgery ended up much easier to deal with than the fibroids. Yeah! My goal is to NOT! gain weight during the four weeks of recovery. I weighed myself at one week and I haven't gained. So far, so good.
I love the fruit and veggie challenge. I'm trying a new or revisited veggie every week. This week was butternut squash. My mother used to boil vegetables until they were gray. I always thought I didn't like vegetables. I wonder how many other people have this issue.0 -
very annoyed right now - check out my main page - but not turning to food or chocolate - they think they've won but he who laughs last laughs best....
smiling on the outside - fuming - really fuming on the inside....

A small downside to losing weight. Yesterday I had to get ready for an all day meeting. When I have something that requires me to get out the door very early, I put on the entire outfit the night before. That way I know everything is ready and also that everything fits. Too many times I have had to put clothes back in the closet because they were too small. Thats not my issue anymore, BUT yesterday I put on my black suit and it was too big. That is very good news, BUT this is one of three size 18 suits that I bought at the consignment shop about 2months ago and I needed to wait for cool weather to wear them. So it went on my growing stack of too large clothes. I decided it has powerful vibes because it was at the consignment shop because someone else went from size 18 to size 14.
So I was thinking what to do with these clothes. My casual clothes I donate to Purple Heart, but I didn't want to send my nice work clothes there. My thought came to my hatter friends. We all share the same goal of changing size and for those of us who are losing a lot of pounds, we go through more than one size. Maybe we could share the clothes for the sizes we are leaving behind.
My thought is that we could set up a discussion under our hatters banner called "Clothes Exchange" The Lister could list clothes that we have available and when someone is interested in those clothes, that person could contact the Lister and make arrangements to pay the shipping costs and the Lister could then send the clothes off.
Let me know if you think this will work, none of us want to invest a lot in clothes that are in a size that are not in our goal size. But we need to look good and feel positive about ourselves as we are on this journey. It is hard to do that in clothes that don't fit. After all this is not about getting to a magical point and beginning to enjoy life when we get there. This fitness journey is about learning to take care of ourselves and to appreciate life from day 1, no matter what our size is on that day. And what better support could we give each other than to share clothes that no longer fit.0 -
Gail, here's the recipe for the muffins. I just had one with dinner
9-⅝ ounces, weight Jimmy Dean Hearty Turkey Sausage Crumbles
8 Eggs (I use egg whites)
¾ cups Bisquick Heart Smart
½ cups 1% Milk (I use skim or almond milk)
4 Green Onions, Sliced
¼ teaspoons Mustard Powder
Red Pepper Flakes, to taste
¼ teaspoons Garlic Powder
4 ounces, weight Cheddar Cheese, Shredded (I use Cabot 50% fat)
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Liberally spray a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
Combine all ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Stir with a spoon until well combined. Divide evenly into prepared muffin tin. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until set. Let cool slightly then carefully remove from pan. (Note from me: I take them out of the tin almost immediately and let them cool on a cooling rack otherwise they stick).

Back to your request for crunch...what about popcorn? I have a microwave popper that cost $9, and it requires no oil. Also, edamame is a great option too.
XXOO,

Yummo going to put the turkey and muffin recipes in the plans for the next shopping trip. Both sound soooooo good.
Janet, I don't know why your idea wouldn't be workable. I am not sure what I have that anyone could use but I love the idea would love to pass on things as I downsize.
Snoozie in case you didn't see me doing the happy dance for your lose this week I am twirling about my classroom with a bunch of giggling students. LOLOL
Well going to watch a bit of tv hope everyone has a great Friday and remember just take it "One pound at a time"0 -
Thanks, Mellisa...
I am going to love the muffins..can't wait to try them.. I am a little exhausted and can'
t seem to type too .....We walked for 5 or 6 hours at the flea market ...so I'm plum tuckered out! Good nite to all!!0 -
feeling better - scout meeting went ok - the "ladies" and I use that term loosely ..... were not there.... talked to a couple of the scout leaders (men) and they weren't mad about the e-mail i sent - they totally understood - why to women have to be so "catty / *****y?" guess they never heard of the scout law...0

A Scout is:
•Trustworthy,
•Loyal,
•Helpful,
•Friendly,
•Courteous,
•Kind,
•Obedient,

Morning Hatters, and TGIF!!
I'm off for a few days as well, so it's a real "weekend" for me too.. yay!! Have LOADS of housework to catch up with unfortunately, but I am planning to break it up to include a few hours of down time curled up with a book as well!! AND i must do the dreaded cooking deed as I know next week is going to be busy; I've been on our retirement committee at work for a few years now (we have a big "do" once a year for everyone who retired during the past year, rather than a bunch of little ones); and ours is next week.. and there are usually about 350 ppl in attendance, and (as you are all women, you completely understand - it's all about the thousands of details lol) Anway, been a lot of work but am also starting midnight shift, but I took the first few off as vacation days; I don't function well on nights to start with, let alone trying to pull together the prep too!) so I am going to make a nice chunky veggie soup and maybe the old standby of a chili to freeze up; I DO have a crockpot but haven't figured out a way to make something in it I can freeze.. making a whole pot for just one person means I either have to eat what I made for a week, or throw it out
(
Hope all the Hatters have a great weekend!!! a few little notes before I head out to get my roots covered (i considered starting a new trend and just letting em grow out to half way down my head....but it didn't seem to catch on for some reason LOL).
Tonya: so sorry to hear both you and hubby have been laid up; hope you stay in bed for the weekend and let yourselves start to heal! Big hugs and I'd send you some chicken soup, but I like you too much to poison you!
Gail: sounds like you had an awesome time at the fair..!! So glad you had a great day my friend! and all that walking!! hope you didn't have to soak your poor tootsies when you got home!
Merobi - LOVELY to see you... I still have your "irritated" post saved in my archives for whenever I need a giggle!!
cbm: sorry about all the drama that seems to have come up with the ECOH for your son; hope you all manage to have a great time and your son gets to enjoy the honour being bestowed upon him.. congrats to him btw!
TA: Thanks for doing the happy dance for me lol - I'm sure you students wondered what the heck their teacher was doing bopping around the front of the classroom, but I very much appreciate it even if they didnt!
Janet - I think that's a fabulous idea about the clothes..! I think the taxes and duty I'd have to pay would cancel out me being able to partake though, as it's based on the actual value of the item, not what I would get to pay for it...wah!! :sad: But how AWESOME was it, that the suit was too BIG?? YAY!
I've been trying to up my veggies for the challenge, doing pretty good but need to mix it up to some of the fall root types to get in a variety.. might have to seek out some of the recipe threads on here for some new ideas as I love all veggies (cept asparagus... I can eat a few of the baby spears here and there.. but it's pretty much the only veggie I'm not fond of! Funny enough, as kids we were allowed ONE thing we never had to eat...ever... (mine was liver) but everything else we had to have a little of it no matter what.. my sister used to hide peas in her mashed potatos just to get them down... but I guess it worked because although I still won't eat liver, I love all the veggies now that were shoved down my throat!
Kobie!! So glad you're feeling so good after the surgery....!! I know you're chomping at the bit to get back to your exercise but let the insides heal up a bit more; then you'll be ready to rock it 100%!!
yikes.. just looked at the time; better get my behind in gear.. will pop in tonight to see how everyones doing!!0 -
