@its_cleo I’m sure it was frustrating not to have all the ingredients for a recipe. I hate that. Burgers and fries sound good. @trooworld The story about the octopus was really interesting. I hope you figure out your kitchen situation. @cbabie I am glad that you’re feeling better. I wonder if you had what I had on Monday.…

@trooworld I’m glad the migraine went away. The salad sounds good. Hi, all. Today was a swim day. I sat outside on the front porch after lunch. DH put the umbrella up. We ate leftovers tonight.

@trooworld The pictures look really nice, especially your artwork. The tacos sounded good, maybe healthy for a Mexican restaurant. Sorry about the migraine. @mh7816 Thanks for explaining about the holiday. I love seeing how different people, especially those from another country, live. It’s good that you can work from…

@trooworld I’m glad you had a good time at the festival and enjoyed the lemonade. The gochujang sounds good. DS laughs at me when I try to pronounce it. He bought the ATK Korean cookbook but hasn’t made anything yet. He has made a few recipes online that were good. Hi, all. I came down with a stomach bug this morning and…

@trooworld I forgot to respond to your post. We have so many on the platform. It’s nice! The book crawl sounded like fun except I would hate the crowds. I think I read the middle book. The art thing also looks like fun. That was a good idea to order pants online. I hate trying on clothes at stores.

@mh7816 I use the Peloton app that my daughter shares with me. She has the bike. I have a recumbent bike. I also use the app for walking outside. I do exercises every morning for my hips. I broke my femur a few years ago and I still do the exercises. I think they help. I’m curious as to what holiday you celebrate in…

@cbabie. That’s too bad about the candy. Eating certain foods releases dopamines that sort of gives us a rush. That’s why it’s so hard to give up those foods. Hopefully you can find something else to ease your depression. I’m sure the flowers help. DH planted tomatoes and winter squash. 120 degrees is really hot! That’s…

@mh7816 Yes, to tag someone, use @ plus the username. Good job on the weight loss. You can lose weight without exercising. Then when you can exercise do what you can do. A little about me: I live in the USA, in Virginia. I was on Weight Watchers but couldn’t lose weight. My doctor suggested My Fitness Pal as many of his…

@trooworld That’s good that your pants are too big! You seem to be losing at a moderate rate. It’s all good! I hope the repair goes well. @mh7816 Welcome to our group! I agree about the 0 point foods. Tracking calories is more accurate. You can do this! @its_cleo Good job on the tracking , weight going down, and doing the…

@trooworld I’m sorry you had a bad day. Hi, all. Not much is going on. I went for a walk after breakfast. DS is off today and is grilling chicken along with pickled carrots and hummus. He makes his own hummus which is really good. We’re going to Sam’s to get chicken and some other stuff.

@trooworld The calorie count sounds good although you’ll feel better about it when you talk to the dietitian. @cbabie That’s too bad about the exercise but you do burn calories from vacuuming. Hi,all. Today was a swim day. DH is doing better. We both had a good night’s sleep. I ate the last of the chicken for lunch today.…

@trooworld Your meals sound good. I hope you have fun with your new friend. I don’t do anything special for my skin except moisturizer on my face and lots of lotion after I shower. I do wash my face with baby shampoo, especially my eye lids. A dermatologist told me to do that many years ago. @cbabie Good job on your…

@trooworld Your day sounded wonderful. It’s great that you can walk without pain. @its_cleo Your goals sound doable. Getting started is the first step. You can do this! @cbabie I’m sorry your day didn’t go as well as you wanted it to go. Hi, all. Today was a swim day. We’re eating leftovers tonight. I’m glad I don’t have…

@trooworld Nice pictures! It was good that you made a new friend. The octopus salad sounds good. No one in my family would eat it so that’s the kind of food I would order at a restaurant. Hi, all. My cousin and her husband, my daughter, her husband and daughter are eating Easter dinner with us. DS has already made a…

@cbabie That was nice of your daughter to clean your cabinets. I love it when our children do things for us! Have fun doing stuff with the kids.

@trooworld Your day sounds like fun. I hope you enjoy the cultural event and don’t get lost. It’s good that you only ate a little bit of the dish your husband made. You are really good at limiting portions. Hi, all. I enjoyed the meal and family time. I did eat more that I should have even though I did limit portions. All…

@trooworld Good job on the weight loss. Slow and steady is good and also sustainable. Enjoy the coffee shop and the broccoli salad. @its_cleo That’s good about the yoga and walking. If you do something often it gets easier. Good luck on your plan. @cbabie I just sprayed the potatoes with cooking spray and added salt. 15…

@trooworld That was good that you didn’t see food you liked. Also that shows that you are discriminating in what you eat. Hi, all. I rode the bike today. DS was off today and went grocery shopping with me. He has made Caesar dressing for our salads. I have baby potatoes in the air fryer and he’s grilling some salmon.

@trooworld The pot luck sounds like fun. Hopefully you were able to eat some of the food. I find those kinds of meals a bit tempting, like going to a buffet. @cbabie It looks like you are trying to eat better. Find a routine that works for you. Hi, all. Today was a swim day. We had leftovers from last night for dinner. Did…

@trooworld I’m glad there were no damages from the earthquake. I’ve been to California 3 times and luckily never experienced an earthquake. The East Coast doesn’t often have earthquakes but it happens occasionally. I remember that the Washington Monument was damaged during the earthquake I mentioned. It took several years…

@trooworld The pugs are adorable! I’m glad you enjoyed the meet up and the spritzer. That was a good idea to make the chili for next week. I saw that San Diego had an earthquake. Did you experience anything when it happened. I remember years ago when we lived in North Carolina I felt the house shake and found out that…

@trooworld I’m glad you got your pie. It sounds good. I bet the pug meet up will be fun. Hi, all. DS is feeling better. We have been isolating. Tomorrow he won’t be contagious so we can go back to normal. For dinner tonight I’m reheating some burgers I made last week and put in the freezer. Plus a salad and frozen fries…

@trooworld Coffee is definitely the nectar of the gods! I hope you got your piece of pie. The pizza hot pockets sound good. Hi, all. It’s cold and dreary here. I went to the recreation center and worked out on the recumbent elliptical. The center has new machines and I thought the elliptical was more comfortable to use.…

@its_cleo I’m glad you’re progressing with your exercise. Enjoy the lamb and your week off. It’s raining here, too. I got used to warm weather and now it’s chilly. I’m fortunate in that I have indoor exercise available.

@trooworld I’m glad you had a hot shower. I love a hot shower! Too bad about work. It’s good that you are working from home. 50 pounds is awesome! Hi, all. Today is a swim day. We have chicken for lunch today. Tonight is steak night.

@trooworld That’s great that the slab is fixed. I hope you had hot water for a shower. Hi, all. It’s a little warmer here but still too cold for me. I need to go to the grocery store. DS is off today and is going to grill some chicken tonight. I’ll ride the bike today.

@trooworld That salad sounds good. Too bad about the slab. There’s always something! Hi, all. DH and I are going swimming today. Dinner was good last night and we have leftovers for tonight. I only have to roast some baby potatoes as we ate all of them last night. It’s cold again today. I’m looking forward to milder…

@trooworld It’s good that you are learning to eat what you like in moderation. I’m sure the nausea is not a good feeling. @its_cleo It’s too bad that the instructor can’t help you. You will have to stop doing something if it gives you pain. It’s good that you have stopped buying the high calorie ice cream. Hi, all. It’s…

@trooworld That’s good that you enjoyed the coffee shop and worked on your art. The shredded pork sounds good. Tomorrow I am making something similar except it’s North Carolina style barbecue ( vinegar based). Hi, all. It was cooler this morning so I enjoyed my walk. Rain was threatening so I stayed close to home. I got a…

@trooworld You look amazing! Too bad you didn’t like your meal. I’m glad you enjoyed the museum. Nice pictures! @its_cleo The yoga sounds like fun. Too bad it aggravate your hip. The next time you go, ask the instructor to give you alternate positions so your hip won’t hurt. The meal sounds good. Good job on staying within…
