@theslightedgeforever You really are in the zone! My DH is pretty supportive. He eats a lot of stuff they I don’t but basically follows a healthy diet. I have been able to eat sweets in moderation. Candy will always be available and I have learned to eat a few pieces after dinner and track it.

@cbabie I love steak and green beans. I have some leftover green beans I’m going to eat tonight. 100 degrees is hot! Stay cool. Walking in place is good.

@theslightedgeforever Good job on the walking and stretching. I need to do more stretching. @cbabie I’m glad the stretching helped relieve pain. @gemwolf110 Oh, my, donuts at home! @trooworld That’s good that you got things straightened out with the dietitian and surgeon. That’s tough with your DH being unsupportive. Hi,…

@trooworld I’m sorry about the weight gain. The pasta meal probably was the culprit. But you have a plan. It’s important to keep that in mind. Hi, all. The pool is still closed. I called and found out that a part came in and it’s being worked on. DH said I went for a walk. It’s hotter today but not as hot as it’ll be later…

@gemwolf110 Enjoy your family and happy birthday week! @trooworld That’s good that you got your walking pad up. It’s nice being able to exercise in your own house when you can’t get out. Your food sounded good. @theslightedgeforever I can only do the seated elliptical. I also love being outside. Hi, all. Today has been…

@gemwolf110 I like the elliptical, especially since I can workout while sitting. It really is low intensity but I can get my heart rate up. That hike sounded enjoyable even though I know I would not be able to do it. You had a busy day. I hope you enjoyed it. @trooworld I’m glad you are feeling better. The restaurant…

@trooworld That’s terrible about your car! I’m glad you got over your migraine. @cbabie I’m sorry you didn’t sleep well last night. Hopefully tonight you will sleep better. Also sorry about the heat. That makes exercise hard. Hi, all. I went to the recreation center today and worked out on the recumbent elliptical. It was…

@trooworld I’m sorry you are not feeling good. Hi, all. The recreation center has AC but the pool is closed because the chemicals are off due to the center not having AC. Hopefully it will be opened next week. Tonight is steak night. The temperature is cooler again so I will go for a walk. And of course, workout on the…

@cbabie I know what you mean about the ice cream. That’s hard to resist. I was glad when all the cake was gone!

@trooworld Sorry about the migraine. I think I made that Skinnytaste recipe. Hi, all. The recreation center is open but without AC and the pool is closed. I’m not working out without AC. Our plans are to go to Target after breakfast. I’ll workout on the bike and walk outside if it’s not too hot. Dinner tonight is pork…

@trooworld I’m sorry you are suffering from depression. Hopefully by the time you read this you will be feeling better. @theslightedgeforever I’m sorry you’re in a funk. I know how you feel waiting for test results. It’s good that you went for a walk. Hi, all. We couldn’t go swimming as the center is closed due to the H…

@cbabie Sorry about the gain. It’s good to get into a routine. I have been eating stuff I usually don’t eat so it’s time to get back into my program of eating. LOL about the mashed potatoes! My stepsister died when she was 72. I’m 72 now. I hope to live a long time!

@trooworld The walk around the lake sounds nice. There’s something about water that’s so peaceful. I’m glad you enjoyed your turkey burgers. Hi, all. My fish last night was really good. I have leftovers for lunch today and tomorrow. Chilean sea bass is usually too expensive to buy. My cousin’s husband works at a grocery…

@trooworld I’m glad you had a good day yesterday. Smoked hotdogs sound good. Turkey burgers, too. Hi, all. I had a good meal and visit yesterday. I ate too much which was to be expected. This morning before breakfast DH and I went walking. It was cool and breezy. After breakfast we went to the grocery store. My son and I…

@theslightedgeforever That was interesting what you said about food companies sending different versions of products overseas. I’m not surprised. It’s hard to convince Americans to eat healthier. I remember someone who had been abroad saying they restaurant portions were smaller there.

@trooworld I’m glad your husband fixed the mailbox and you enjoyed your meal. Sometimes we go over our calories. It happens. I hope you can take a nap. It seems there is no rhyme or reason when I don’t sleep well. Luckily most nights I sleep okay. I miss my younger self when I slept the whole night! @cbabie It’s always…

@cbabie I’m so sorry about your friend. Homemade ice cream sounds good.

@trooworld That’s too bad about your mailbox and your debit card. I hope you enjoy the play even though it’s a serious topic. This month is mental health awareness month so it will be a lot to think about. I have done some Peloton workouts that were about mental health. Body acceptance is a topic. Hi,all. I’ve been up…

@theslightedgeforever I’ve never heard of e-diet. The diet industry has really changed since I worked for WW. I’m impressed with your routine and mindset. @trooworld The new surgery center is much more efficient and user friendly. I hope things work out. @cbabie Nothing wrong with eating Oreos occasionally. I am eating 3…

@trooworld That’s too bad about the meal being too spicy. I’m not a fan of spicy. My 11 year old granddaughter eats food way spicier than I do. The chicken salad sounds good. Hi, all. I’m at our cottage now. I went on a hot walk at the park. Luckily there was a breeze. I walked around a shaded picnic area to get out of the…

@trooworld That’s a good idea to find another doctor. Sitting by a canyon sounds interesting. In the summer when it’s too hot to sit in the front yard, I sit on my shaded patio with fans going. I love to watch the birds. Although in the last few years there haven’t been as many birds l. @cbabie Decluttering is very tiring.…

@trooworld I guess you really needed the nap. Glad you felt better afterwards. Bean and cheese burritos sound good. @theslightedgeforever You are correct in going for a healthy lifestyle instead of just being on a diet. I used to work for WW and that was one of our constant topics. Hi, all. Today was a swim day. The…

@theslightedgeforever That’s good discipline in not buying snacks at the theater. You are doing great with the food tracking and exe!

@trooworld What a fun weekend you had! That was terrible about the door! Glad you fixed it. @cbabie I am also a sweets person. I do occasionally eat protein chips. I hate the humidity. That will be our weather later in the summer. Hi, all. I’m tired today as I didn’t sleep much last night. DH and I had dentist appointments…

@theslightedgeforever The struggle is real with the carbs! Yes, the water feels good and I can burn a lot of calories swimming. It doesn’t feel like I’m working hard but I’m tired afterwards.

@cbabie Wow! 100 degrees! That’s hot! I’m sure you enjoyed having your grandson with you. It’s good that he is a healthy eater.

@trooworld I love the pictures! Hi, all. No rain today but cool and dreary. I’ll do similar workouts as I did yesterday. Crab legs were good last night. We have some fruit salad leftover that we’ll eat tonight. The macaroni salad was good, too. My daughter is coming over to prepare dinner. She’s making crispy gnocchi with…

@trooworld Those eating days happen! The Puppy Prom and Kitty Court sound fun. Fingers crossed for Daisy. Hi, all. It’s raining and cool today. I’m not going anywhere today. I did 2 bike workouts and 2 stretching workouts. Tonight we are having crab legs again as my daughter missed out Tuesday when she was on a work trip.…

@trooworld Good job for being under calories. The weight gain was possibly due to sodium from eating out. You’re right that tracking helps. @theslightedgeforever Good job on tracking food and exercise. Hi, all. I went swimming today. Lunch was leftover salmon on Romain lettuce plus berries with nonfat Greek yogurt. I’m…

@trooworld I agree that weather affects us. My joints can testify. Good job on the pizza. You didn’t go over much and I’m sure you enjoyed it. @theslightedgeforever That is hard when you don’t know what is being served. You’ve got the right idea for next time. You’re doing a good job on food and exercise. Hi, all. The…
