Many of us feel the need to remain connected by just signing in on a daily basis. We may have a lot to say or very little. We may say smart things, or dumb things. It doesn't matter if we're having a good day, a bad day...or something in my between. We'll post our thoughts, our successes, our challenges, our insights (or lack thereof), and our support. We're here for each other. Together, we can do this!

This isn't about perfection...it's about perseverance: to persist in an undertaking in spite of counter influences, opposition, or discouragement. Onward and Downward. Everyone is welcome!

Do one thing right today...whether it's drinking the liquids, eating the fruits and vegetables, taking the multivitamin, getting the dairies in, having the healthy oil, choosing whole grains...whatever.

Remember that, at its core, this plan is simple - eat a little less than you used to, eat a little healthier, be a bit more active. The rest is just finding the balance that works for you, and your friends on GoaD are here to share what's worked for them.

    For those retired, every day is a Saturday of a three day weekend. ;)

    The only reason I observe the weekend is that as a retiree, I try to stay out of the places where working people congregate on weekends (grocery stores, malls, hardware stores, etc.) It’s not that I’m afraid of catching employment from them, but I simply don’t need to fight crowds or wait in weekend lines for things I can do more readily M-F.

    I may have time on my hands, but my appetite for wasting it has not increased.

    Good morning GoaD. Even worse in a lakeside community where the populations doubles on a summer weekend.

    Good morning everyone! While I'm not retired, I often am able to work from home on Fridays. It helps me feel the transition to the weekend nicely!
