Happy Anniversary! He sounds like a lovely man and you make a great team 😼 I did a quick calculation, and my son has now been around for 61% of my life…😁

LLOLOLOLOL 😆

@Yoolypr sorry to hear this. I have been anything but stellar lately myself. Tomorrow is another day!

Mushrooms & onions seem to go really well together in an omelette, super low calorie and very nice macro profile. I just started adding 2 breakfast sausage links, diced up, into the mix for more savoury flavour. Around 350 calories. Of course you could add other veggies and cheese, which is more my default way to omelette,…

@springlering62 I can't weight (😉) until I finally achieve this goal. I know what you mean about always rising to the occasion vs setting a personal goal and then realizing that goal. I will feel mighty victorious when I finally get there and it will no doubt spill over into other areas. It is already giving me more…

@AnnPT77 bloomin' lovely!

Most beneficial for me from MFP is just the food logging/calorie counting. I log whether good, bad or ugly lol. And while my trajectory has been nowhere near linear, with many months of treading water, or small slides back upwards, it has trended down overall and I am down 88 lbs in 4 years. My mantra this time is FOR LIFE…

I must say, although retired and therefore on the old side…I am singularly unhelpful when it comes to discovering why I go off the rails - even when diligently seeking to understand. I can hazard a guess at best - hoping it's at least an educated guess...🙄 @Athijade sounds like you are making true headway - stopping and…

Mmmm love Smoked Gouda! And Gruyere. Pronounced 'gowda' btw, learned that at a Gouda cheese producer in The Netherlands!

Thanks for the floorplan Laurie, I get it now. That must've been one large room before on housemate's side - you really have the house split down the middle, save for kitchen and bathroom. Very equitable of you 😂
-
The 1st chart I did a screenshot and cropped lol. Holding down on it does nothing. It states per 100 grams, and I'm imagining that must be cooked weight for stuff like rice or pasta, so volume-wise, I think pasta wins. LOL on buying with cream cheese! I recently found Smoked laughing cow cheese wedges - I consider them in…

Yakky, I'm all for volumetrics, but can see the potential downside in normalizing/maintaining eating large quantities in order to feel full. Love the chart! Thanks for sharing! Could you possibly type out a link to it? I cannot use "quote" function, which was how I used to be able to download such things…or maybe friend me…
-
@Creamtea42 , are you executing your plan? Sounds pretty stressful at your work, hope your workload is lightened.
-
I love French doors, I have them separating the kitchen/family room from the living room/dining room. Mine look quite similar. Like Pav, my conceptualizing needs some more hints - where was/is the hallway? Where is the new door from/to? Great work by the way, truly lovely. Yooly, you must be enjoying the cooler climate,…

My place of residence is in my name! I am 🇨🇦 in the Vancouver area of British Columbia. We just had a run of truly warm, sunny weather (highs to 80f, or tad higher - up to 30c) But supposed to cool off as the week progresses. I got the A/C set up again in my bedroom on the weekend, which is a godsend, the whole upstairs…

Hey all, glad to hear your surgery went so well Laurie! Helps calm my nerves somewhat. I can relate to the 'what can I get done before surgery' hustle as my first eye op is in a couple of hours and I'm about to put fresh sheets in the bed. My 2nd op is in 2 weeks, and my brother is having his wedding ceremony in my living…
-
Yooly, I arrive at the medical office stating the computer was glitching so haven't filled out the forms- but I can quickly update the info on file as not much has changed… Now of course, not if it's a new place! I also refuse (nicely, in a 'it's all beyond me' manner 😉) to log into any portals. I have become increasingly…
-
I request a copy of last form to update anything that needs it…I will NOT put down my name and address again! It's ridiculous. Also, I'm finally wizing up to take a photo of the completed forms…
-
@springlering62 - I would offer those chocolate pancakes again 😉
-
Mrs @Creamtea42, glad you could make it and had a pleasant time with MIL. It so happens, I am having a proper afternoon tea today - it's a thing over here in Victoria, BC - several tea houses offer it. My daughter has some friends visiting from Toronto and we're going with them. I love tea, and scones, so doubt very much…

@Rainbow2300, only too happy to oblige! 😊 The church is called Hallgrímskirkja, the kirkja part just means church. It is one of the tallest buildings in all if Iceland and is situated in Reykjavik. You can go up to the platform right below the bells in the bell tower - very windy up there! Here is an inside shot, it has a…

@j29t, please post a photo of your new bike when you getvit - sounds fun! @AnnPT77 great photo, but not particularly masculine lol I am now sitting looking at a great view on Vancouver Island, stopped at a beach park on our way to Victoria for the weekend. It is crazy how many logs have been tossed up over the winter.…

I really should be packing…

sorry Yooly to hear you are in a funk. Look what I get when trying to quote your post! And maintaining, even at a higher number than one would like is still not bad. ((HUG)) ETA Here is a screenshot of what I see, but was invisible when I looked at the post!

Hi all, my weigh-in Wednesday was a great success, down several pounds and only .5 lb higher now than the day before I flew to London (that's England for you Laurie 😉🤣🙃) 3 weeks ago! Good thing too, because I am catching a BC Ferry Thurs morn to go to Victoria on Vancouver Island for a few days…come home Sunday…

My Daughter's cat scratched her eye (a loving stroke, but still!) and she used ointment at night for years, then to her surprise it actually fully healed. True story: my eyesight not great, mostly due to double vision, but much improved after surgery. I was told to use drops regularly due to dry eyes, and one lid not fully…

Finally got back here to finish this post after reading 40 (40!) new posts …sorry to hear about Laurie's car woes and Nic's veins (and PAV's apparently). Came home Saturday evening from our truly fabulous vacation, cruising & visiting Northern Europe. I can definitely see returning to Norway in the future, great country…

LOLOLOLOL Mark 😉, great picture! Finally got back here to finish this post…got home Saturday evening from our truly fabulous vacation, cruising & visiting Northern Europe. I can definitely see returning to Norway in the future, great country and great people! Would be fun to do a road trip as there are so many ferries as…

My vote is handsome clean shaven older gent on his boat… Agreed, they do seem to come in clusters!

Hello! Internet very spotty to nonexistent lately, we were warned that the satellite connection can do that on the seas around Norwegian fjords and while crossing the North Atlantic to Iceland. Happy to report the sea was like glass and the journey incredibly smooth. Weather GREAT and above seasonal norms pretty much every…
