Hi all. I have been an eating machine here. Can I be excused from my Saturday weigh in? I’m going to avoid the scale for the next week till it’s under control. @GingerPwr your breakfast sounds good. I think a Bloody Mary would hit the spot. I’ve been into the sweets. @xX_PhoenixRising_Xx that cake is amazing, Looks like it…

Sugar cookie extravaganza! We decorated cookies today and the kids and I had a fun time. Of course too many cookies jumped into my mouth. We made gift boxes for my sister and the kids grandma so at least some cookies are out of the house.

I’ve been thinking of doing this breaking up as well. I have hand weights and exercise bands on hand. I like the idea of fitting in more through the day. Curious to hear from others who do this work out style !

Hi all, I made homemade sink scrub last night and will be dropping off mini mason jars full of that to several close friends. I also got some wine and goodies for my Aunty who is in town. I will be doing a ring and run drop off since no one is in my bubble anymore. I haven’t seen these folks for months ! In other news I…

Hi all. For my positivity vibes - @minstrelofsarcasm My son works in a grocery store and he brought home cokes for us. It was a very sweet gesture, I hadn’t had pop in a long time!

Hi all ! I’m planning my exercise for the next few months. I’m still trying to increase weight training. The restrictions keep getting tighter around here, we can no longer have outside persons in our homes. So for Christmas we will have to go out in two groups of four - separate tables. I think this is the best plan we…

It’s a sunny day and I’m out with my family; the kids are smiling and we are all laughing at something funny my eldest said. I’m dressed in a nice top and slim cut jeans that fit me well. In fact - all the clothes in my closet fit me well. My skin looks amazing and my curls are popping. I’m feeling so proud that I’m a…

Hi all. Sounds like everyone has made good progress this month. I’m hoping to get in more of a groove with my home exercise. I bought a few things so trying to put it all together in a routine where I can do something each day. I guess I’m in the right place for that though!! Planning for December now.

Happy Sunday all!! I’ve meal prepped for two overnight oats. I bought a box of bran buds that I’m going to add a tablespoon over top right before I eat. See how that tastes.

I found the fireplace works amazing for warming it up.…
