Good morning, Slims! Thursday Check-in Follow-up I did get that workout done, so managed an all-green day. And I have started today well, with an on-plan breakfast and completing my martial arts exercise. I talked to my husband to let him know he's being my coach, as per the Beck plan, while we were walking last night. So…

Hi Mihani! I had a couple of PB and raisins days last week. I'd love to just have no raisins in the pantry for a bit, but my son eats them. It may sound silly, but I put a bright sticker on the top of them, just a reminder to stop and think, and that has worked well. I did get a little container for vitamins. Thanks for…

Good morning, plant-loving peeps! Mihani - I have your vitamin sorter on my Amazon Wishlist and am thinking about it! That or something like it could make mornings faster. I hope you are feeling better. Bisky, I hope your internal med appointment goes well today! I am having an okay day. Tuesday are a stress day and I just…

Ha! A vitamin sorter is a great idea. I should consider that! I had another decent food today. Noshed on some peanut butter and raisins, which I need to cut down on, but overall a good day!

Hello, all! I have been resisting taking my supplements of late, so I just timed it to see how long it takes. Under 2 minutes. So I took them today and will remind myself that it is not THAT much work! LOL I am also playing a game of "at least 10 minutes of exercise before noon." Today it was a jog twice around the block.…

Good afternoon, SlimPosse! I feel like I am still trying to get into a rhythm with the new year. I did get in my 10+ minutes of cardio this morning -- a quick jog twice around the block. @trooworld Thank you, as always, for the reminder that CHANGE HAPPENS! If you are game for trying it, you might look into stretching of…

Hello, all! @magic71755 Your menus look delicious! I made a red cabbage dish for the family, that was a big hit. It was this, which is easily converted to no sugar/oil/salt, and is still tasty.

Happy Sunday, y'all! I had a delicious and plant-based day! Highlight was the rest of a Peruvian purple potato. Had I known they were so delicious, I might have bought more than one. The highlight of the day was snow. Here in central Texas, it doesn't snow often, so we all get excited when it does. We now have a snowman in…

@magic71755 - Ohhhh! Sorry, I misread your comment. I think I was in a hurry. All my experience with FlyLady is individual. My sister referred me to the website and I ran with the ideas. Anyway, I have gotten a lot from FlyLady. I still aim to do the weekly House Blessing. For others -- that's 10 minutes each of some key…
