Well, my Sunday is at an end. I did yesterday's goals although the 1 hour of cleaning got done this morning early. Stayed within calorie goal, exercised at pool, was not more than 3 minutes late for church, dishes going and laundry washed, left a green butterfly on husband's grave, took the shot without whimpering, and…

Saying hello! A lovely cool day here in Virginia but I do know somewhere you are wet and hopeful rain will stop. I bought a food scale today and also a rotten watermelon. Had to throw the melon away as I did not feel like packing it up and asking for refund. I made some marinated chicken (soaked in Italian dressing) this…

MLHC1-Monday will be a change here, too. Yesterday, we just went shopping--not for stuff we needed but just to see stuff. I am sure we can get into routine Monday but still I am not sure exactly how or what. Met Friday's goals mostly-I am never done with the yard and trash taking out is iffy. Dog hair removal is unending-I…

Hello, hello. What lovely photos of beach and crocheting, no one ever has a bad thing to show and I appreciate that. We are having super weather here in Suffolk, VA--it must be because some of you are taking the bad weather. I will tune in to the weather and look for Texas and Tornado Alley folks. My son learned or…

Joan--Lovely quilt. Sorry about stitch removal! I ate late at Ruby Tuesday and now I have horrific heartburn. Of course, can't find the TUMS! I think I am in a deep snit just in general but I did take my mood stuff. Anyhoo, to review--stayed in calorie goal, played around in pool for 40 minutes, cleaned most of the…

Lenora-- The boy is my son shown as my picture. Dorrie--I love your closing line about Plan A and the other letters. Wish I had known it years ago!

Happy Thursday. JANETR-- love the ornaments. Do you have a link or website to provide instructions on how to do these? TERRY in VT-- Yours is a success story! MACHKA -- You say 2 years on skin tightening? Does swimming in the pool daily perhaps help skin to tighten a bit? New persons-- Welcome, post often. Nothing new here…

Not much deep knowledge on my part in comparison with the others, but, I thought I would not ever lose weight and I read a success story here about plateaus. The writer said NOTHING was moving downwards for a month and more. She upped her exercise for a week- cardio and strength and that got her over/through/past the…

Let's see-- calories (had onion soup, did well on this), exercise YES, dishes/laundry/floor (sort of), need to mow (did it all on riding mower before rain), and going to stand over kid at computer (2 hours). Thursday -- watch calories, drink water, exercise, dishes/laundry/trash, school work.

Oh goodness, I was talking to the boy just yesterday about needing flu shots. Sorry to hear you are under that flu. In Oklahoma traveling? Eat salsa at Mexico Joe's if you go to Stillwater. Paula-diabetes is nasty. Do what you must to beat it. Howdy all. Off to mow-what else do I ever seem to do. No clouds here but…

Morning! Lots of little things to do today and I will get them done! Right after I read the paper. The laundry is going and most dishes are in the machine. Going to pool-no matter how bad I feel going, it always is soothing and I feel better after.

Yes, we both do and my husband did when he was alive. My health is precarious and we go to church and the pool and other places with people. Also, my work provides the shot free and then I have insurance for my child. I hate the needle/shot but more I hate the sickness and what it can do to us. Also pneumonia for me and…
-
The goals were --> watch calories (hmm, lunch was major so dinner was sparse) and drink water (still drinking, will take water to bed as I seemed to be in dire straits this morning when I hadn't eaten yet) and exercise (did that). Don't be late for church (check). Do the shot first thing without whining (yep). Drive out to…

I am not and never will be pregnant in the future. But I did have gestational diabetes and I encourage you to do whatever you can to avoid that. Drop anything sugar and processed flour--worship vegetables and salads and drink tons of water. Follow every precaution and suggestion your doctor gives you. I gained 7 pounds…

Michelle! My freezer is full. Seriously. But that is what I would typically do. I have just been eating the same thing daily until whatever disappears. I am currently working on deviled eggs, tuna salad, and I finished my last serving of rump roast last night. I made Pico de gallo and kept all skins wherever. AND I ATE ALL…
-
I did the list. Woo-hoo. Tomorrow - Sunday The usual --> watch calories and drink water and exercise. Don't be late for church. Do the shot first thing without whining. Drive out to cemetery and talk to my husband. If it doesn't rain and the grass is dry, might ride around on mower. Hoping you all are having peaceful and…

Just checking in to say Good Night! Anyone have advice on how to cook for one? I like my cooking but the boy doesn't always and nothing I make comes out for the one meal. I wanted to make pico de gallo but not 5 cups for eating all in one day. I also have a salsa recipe for a quart. What will happen if I don't remove the…

Week-end! Saturday plans are: STAY IN CALORIE GUIDELINES-it is about 70 calories for one deviled egg. Exercise 30 minutes no matter what excuse I can think up. Get weed-eater going. Remove dog hair from rolling chair wheels. Grocery shop to use coupon. SKYMNINGEN good luck on the fellowship.

Good morning everyone. I am going to do nothing much today. Have a recipe for pico de gallo and might give that a try. Need to go fiddle with the weed-eater to see if I can fix it, else my nothing much will include a trip to Home Depot (which is next to Dairy Queen, Cracker Barrel, Red Robin, and Olive Garden). Grocery…

I did not do much today but I am content enough. Found my thyroid pills on base and there is a 90 day supply. Got e-mail that 3 prescriptions are on their way mail order. My treadmill new cord arrived. Weed-ate for 30 minutes-now the machine needs a new head so line will come out. Going to bed early and having high hopes…

TODAY--monitor calories (913), get exercise (weed-eat and swim), weed-eat/mow (need a new head for weed-eater, might mow when back from Y), 3 hours son's school (we did not), laundry/dishes/trash (sort of). And I went and found my missing meds and I also just watched TV--Dr. Phil about catfishing and Maury about people who…

Good morning to all. I have been reading your news and we really have lots going on. Michelle is on my mind-no clue as to what will evolve but just be there when you can and also go home when you need to. Dorrie-I think August is being a poopy month. With my husband's death, well, I try not to reflect on it but goodness,…

Thursday--make kid send aunt HB e-mail, stay within calorie guidelines and exercise, chase missing thyroid pills, use push mower and think about weed-eating another day. Did it, did it, overdid it, no pills, weed-ate 1 hour and push-mowed about another 50 minutes. Going to bed. On Friday 8/18, monitor calories, get…

So...what are you doing today? From your earlier post, it seems you are doing very well. You have a target and you are on your way. This my 26th day here and I like that it was free. BUT having folks here be encouraging has been major. I am not active nor athletic--just trying to live as long as I can.
-
Had to go copy what the goals for today were-- PERHAPS ONE SHOULD WRITE DOWN THE GOALS AND PUT ON FRIG!--on Wednesday pick-up pills (there were no pills-Sigh), eat within calorie limit (YES), exercise (YES), clean floor (What? Who typed that in here?), get gas (YES), and baby-sit carefully for boss's baby (DID IT). Son…

WELCOME SUE in AZ Who is doing Korean BBQ? I tried that today and it needs work here. I am not sure what I wanted-spicy/sweet but I ended up boiling down the sauce and adding cornstarch. It is okay good but not the special flavor I thought. I love Mongolian sauce and garlic sauce and even General Tso's sauce. What should I…
-
Hmm, a bit frightening but likely has a decent mind and heart. Are you the sort that brags and obviously is doing far better than me? I hope not because I am here for many moons! It will be alright if you do some better --to be expected-young and male. So...how's it going? Picture is my boy!
