Serial Starters

Starting again here. The only difference this time is that I am not beating myself up. As a saying I am fond of says "Sure, it's a slow process, but quitting won't speed it up". Wishing everyone here a healthy weight loss journey.

Good evening,

Miss Snottypants strutted into the boss' office but wasnt real happy coming out and it was a cold silence this afternoon (at least it was quiet).

Walking breaks as the weather is cooler, RAIN possible tonight in the area north of SF. Biggest fire is there so good place to rain.

Mac and cheese for dinner and it just is.

Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Sounds like miss snotty pants didn’t get what she was hoping for. It’s getting cooler here too. Making it better for walking. Stay safe!

So I had extra time this morning and made a veggie and cheese crustless quiche. I added a package of Green Giant Antioxidant blend which I’ve never done before with quiche so I’ll see how it tastes when done. It smells good though.

Oh, Missy - that looks wonderful! Please send some down to me! 😋

Sara - glad to hear Miss Snottypants kept quiet after complaining 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Looks and sounds amazing! But what is Pam? I don’t think we have it here? Thinking it must be some kind of low calorie cooking spray maybe?

Hope everyone has had a good hump day, I’m so glad tomorrow is Thursday as that’s my last working day of the week. Sara your co workers sound dreadful, I hope things get better for you.

I decided I wasn’t happy with my losses so far (since I have so very much to lose) so I’ve dropped my calories to 1000 a day and am exercising more now. Here’s hoping it works!

Have a good rest of your day 😊

Yes it’s a cooking spray. Pam is just the brand name for it.

Happy Thursday all!

Thanks for the info about Pam, we have one cal spray here so I’m thinking it’s the same thing. It’s my day off tomorrow so I might give the quiche a go then.

Delighted to report that I got my first stone (14lbs) gone this morning! Only another 8 to go! Lots of walking yesterday so no treadmill last night. Maybe tonight.

Sara I hope you’re less tired today.

Have a good day all 😊

THURSDAY, September 30th
Wow, it's the last day of September! Time is flying.

Missy - look at that wonderful array of Flooofies!!!! I want to come to your house and dive into all of that fur and snuggle with them.....and brush them too! 😍
Wishing you good news from the doctor about your foot~

Nikki - do be careful of your weight loss expectations. Dropping your calorie intake to below 1200 per day may actually make your body resistant to losing, especially if you are exercising. They say we shouldn't lose more than 2 pounds per week 🤗
Maybe work in a little bit of the exercises that build muscle.
Hugs~

Sara - your pork dinners sound really good! Mmmmm!

Waving to Lynn and Tracy and Roz and Runa and everyone else who pops by later on 🌴

And good news foot is healing like it’s supposed to and doc said I can give Zumba a try whoohoo. If foot starts hurting wait 2 weeks and try again :-) and I so love the floof. Plenty of snuggles to go around. They are sending virtual snuggles.

Happy Friday!

Great news about Zumba, I’m hoping to try it when I can actually move a bit better. It’s very energetic isn’t it?

Sara I hope your dinner was yummy no matter what the hour 😊

I’m just about to try water walking with two of my local friends. Apparently it’s supposed to be a good gentle way to start moving and one of my friends has serious back trouble so the water helps her. Will see how it goes. I’m just hoping the water isn’t that cold as goose bumps on my wobbly bits are not attractive! I did get hubby to turn the pool up last night but apparently it only increases a degree a day so at 27 degrees last night it’s still going to feel cold! 🥶

Hope everyone has a good Friday!

Good evening,

Pork loins on baking sheet and sweet potato (whole) baking in oven.

Passed out when I came home but also got my 5k steps today. Dinner at this hour will be interesting.

Missy - yay!!! That you get to give Zumba a try is encouraging. Thank you for posting picture of your furry friends.I will let Lana dive into the huskies and I will try and kiss up to the little white one....

Wishing all a good night. Stay safe and sane out there.

Your welcome! Little white one loves kisses. Giving and receiving lol 😂

Good morning ladies! ☀️

It's October!

I had dinner with friends at their house, and it was carb-heavy! Dessert was ice cream. I ate what was served to me, and then I found that once I was back home, I was craving more carbs!! My body can retain water not only when I eat salty things but also when I eat bread and sugar. Dang!

Missy - that is great news from the doctor. Listen to your body as you add more exercise 🤗

Nikki - water exercise is nice! As for temperature, as you know, it always feels cold to start, so give it a few minutes. I say this because my pool heater is dead, yet I was able to swim in it at temps that I would have thought were "too cold".

Sara - TGIF! 🌴 The Cabana Boys announced that you are the Guest of Honor at the Friday Happy Hour today! ⛱🌴
Big hugs for making it through another work week 🤗

Waving to everyone who stops by today 👋🏻

Thanks Lana! Water walking was actually quite good fun so I think we’ll do it again at least until the end of the month anyway. Pool goes off for winter then. Too expensive to heat through the winter.

Missy your dogs are absolutely gorgeous!

I celebrated 15lbs off today by having my nails done in a lovely shimmering purple glitter varnish. Thought it might be too much but I’m loving it! Good to have a non food treat.

Anyway today has been full of exercise so much so that even though it’s only 21.50 here I’m already heading to bed. And on a Friday night too 😂

Happy weekends everyone 😊
