    Hello guys , the past days were crazyyyy...sigh but nevertheless I stayed on track even with a huge temptation last night...so my daughter decided she wanted to bake a cake....sigh...and it smelled yuuuummmmmyyyyy in the house....when the cake was cooled down and fully decorated the kids decided they wanted a piece...so my daugher in her sweet personality offers me a piece ....I declined and went into the bedroom before I break down that I wanted that piece sooo badly...it was way too late for me to eat in the first place and chocolate cake so not the right choice either. I stayed strong but god ...........sigh ok got that off my chest....anybody have an advice or suggestion how to handle this at a later point? I know one piece is not the world but it adds up...does it get any easier to withstand sigh..?

    Drink water, take a walk, and chew gum. At least, it seems to work for me, Sue. You did good resisting. Easier? Yes and no. Again, at least for me.

    Red all days

    Hey guys. I've been trying to get in here for a couple of weeks. I really need it. I got a new BBB several weeks ago and thought that would help to get me back on track. But it hasn't, but at least this week hasn't been as far off as the past couple of months. I've let this get too far out of control. It's practically starting over.

    Still can't walk much without pain. My PT sessions have ended so I just have to keep working on strengthening my foot and leg. I have to keep at it.

    Hi Roger.

    I was wondering how the PT and recovery was coming along. Sorry you are still in pain. Will take a good while, I'm sure, before you think that things are vastly improved.

    You are home now ... with all of your friends and the support.

    Hi All
    I got out and walked my usual 2 3/4 miles. I was out the door early before Sunrise and beat the worst of the heat and Yahoo, The Humidity is down too.

    The Censored Deer are still eating things, the latest is they ate most of the leaves off of the pepper plants, Left the Peppers that were growing, why? They also nibbled off the top of a tomato plant and ate some of the leaves off of a Rose Bush. It seems they can work around the thorns :(

    Have a Great Friday

    Hi Sue
    Congratulations, Why not keep some of the NS Dessert Cakes in Your cupboard? The Chocolate and the Golden Pound Cake and the Carrot Cake are a decent size and taste. Add a Limited Extra of Low Fat Whipped Cream as a Ersatz Frosting (alternative) and Voila You have a Yummy Dessert to go with the home baked cake.

    That's All I got, Sorry.

    Not as hot here today, Roger. Was able to do a lot of walking w/o feeling like I was gonna pass out. :)

    I replied to the new Challenge thread and like the front-running title.

    100% 7/29 and 7/30. Good to see you Roger!! Hope you feel better soon.

    Sue...good going in resisting temptation. I don't know if I would have done as well. And yes, after you say no enough times it gets so its easier for you and people will stop pushing food if you have family that do that. Also if you do have some NS cakes stashed you can use those. I like the golden one and the chocolate one with fruit and whipped topping! Yummy!!

    RogerToo...you have censored deer. I have a dog who thought all the raspberries that grow and the tomatoes were for him. I planted one tomato plant this year in a sunny secluded spot right up next to my deck. He doesn't know its there so I am thinking I will get tomatos this year for me.

    Hi All
    I walked a slightly different route and walked 2.8 miles today. It was much nicer out today than Yesterday, When I started out it was before Sunrise and the Blue Moon was out with a few wispy clouds drifting across it. I came home, Cooled off and went back out around 8AM and mowed the Lawn. 9682 steps so far today according to the FitBit Zip including the mowing. I am now officially tired :)

    My Brother commented that it looks like the Censored Deer was back and ate some more overnight. I have seen them in the woody area below the lake and I saw two or three Yesterday along the edge of another park that has a wooded area along a brook. Them dang things are all over anymore. I do not know how they manage to avoid the thorns on the rose bush they have been nibbling on.

    Whats a fella to do, You can not string Razor Wire around the property :)

    Have a Good Weekend

    Hi Flo
    For me it is not so much a feeling that I may pass out as a case of terminal sweat when it is hot and humid :)

    Congratulations on being able to get out and go today.

    Hi Ginny
    Dogs Like Raspberries? Next Year we will have to put up a fence, more expense and time wasted that should not have to be done. We never had deer in past years.

    Maybe a Round Cage around the Tomatoes next year?

    Good Luck Getting the tomatoes, we are starting to get some finally despite the deer. The Pepper plants were in full production and I am sure that no leaves will stop that cold.

    Good Luck

    Hi, Roger.

    I quickly skimmed, but didn't see anything that jumped out at me.

    Love the description of the flight. :)
