  • @trooworld I’m glad the surgeon seems to know what might be wrong and, hopefully, will be able to pinpoint the exact issue. Five prescriptions is a lot, but at least it makes you drink your water. 🙂 Congrats on losing 4 lbs and dropping into a new BMI category. Onderland will be here before you know it! 😎 @Katmary71…
  • @AnAbsoluteDiva , I’m glad you could keep your sweet mama home until the end. That is what I pray to be able to do as well. My Joe is also very sweet and does whatever I tell him. But it can be challenging when they forget what you just told them. At least he isn’t trying to eat crayons, yet! 🙂 @Katmary71 Bummer you…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 I would challenge you not to call your Whopper and fries a mistake because that makes it sound like you didn’t mean for it to happen. You purchased the food, picked it up, and ate it. If we don’t own what we do, we really can’t take control of our behavior. And once you take ownership, you forgive yourself…
  • @Katmary71 , I'm sorry you're losing your roommate. I hope you can find someone else you will like as much. Going out into your yard and picking your own greens must be such a good feeling! OK, I’m going to challenge myself to log my meals. I don’t like the app for My Fitness Pal, so I signed up for Lose It yesterday, and…

  • @AnAbsoluteDiva Thank you! I’m in my fourth year as his caregiver, and you are right about how focused we have become on keeping them safe and well cared for. My prayer is that I can keep him home until the end. The unknowns of what we are heading into are stressful, but I can only take it one step at a time. 😕 @Katmary71…
  • @AnAbsoluteDiva Alcohol will always stall my weight loss or give me a gain. It’s good that you recognize and aren’t upset by the scale number but understand how to make the number go back down. Thank you for sharing that you also have experience with Alzheimer’s. Being a caregiver is very hard, and I love that you are…
  • @Cornanda, I’m glad the Mayo Clinic diet is going well for you. Cooking two meals would be a pain, so I feel you are trying to juggle your diet and satisfy the family. A home gym is fantastic! I love having my workout room! 💪Ugh, I am sorry that you are having to have hard talks with your dad. My heart breaks for people…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 Look at us learning stuff from each other! 😀There are never enough hours in a day! @trooworld No sugar of any kind is added to the Paleovally bars. Here is the link to them and what they claim. I love the idea of all the clean ingredients. I’m supposed to get my order today, and I will let you know how they…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 HaHa, I am grain-challenged!! I didn’t even know people ate millet until I met you. I used to feed it to my cockatiel years ago. I looked up Tabbouli, and it does look delish. I would eat it if someone made it!😂 Good for you for learning to listen to your body! I think at least 90% of snacking is for…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 Congrats on your loss this week!! The Daniel Fast is paying off for you! I am usually starving by 11 a.m., and my protein shake has lots of protein powder, unsweetened coconut milk, Keifer, and frozen berries. I sometimes eat a small amount of nuts with my shake, which does help keep me full until around 3…

  • Wahooooo Slimpossibles for making it 1st place!! 🤩🤩 @trooworld That is awesome that you got so many steps in without any knee pain! Just shows what a little weight loss will do, huh? 😉 @txcritter69 Thank you! Sorry you are struggling, but you can get back on the wagon again simply by jumping back on. I hope the Wegovy…
  • @micaroo4, I’m sorry your sleep experiment is so hard for you. I was staring at the ceiling at 3 a.m., wide awake, and finally got up and took another Relaxium, which helped enough to give me another 3 hours. Hang in there, and for your sake, I hope your doctor is right about his plan. 😴 @trooworld You should look up some…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 Thank you! You could never be rude, and I appreciate your concern! 😘I’m not doing OMAD, but it's close. I have a protein shake at around 11:00 a.m. and nothing else until I eat dinner at 5 p.m. Those two meals were high in calories, but I’m controlling my portion size and learning to stop when I feel full.…
  • @Katmary71 I had never heard of Rosemary Gladstar, so I looked at her website. She has a lot of books! Hmm, alpaca poop. Is it better than other poop? 😃 @Cornanda, I agree that the double spacing is annoying! I use a Google Doc to reply and then paste it into the group. I also don’t like that the emoji codes don’t work…
  • @trooworld Love the art!!🤩 I hope your migraine is better today. @micaroo4 I hope you can figure out your sleep. I also have issues with middle of the night waking up and not being able to fall back to sleep. It makes for a long next day. 😴 I started my Spring cleaning as well! @DrewsAnna what fun you all had celebrating…
  • @trooworld Wow, 4 weeks in the green. I need a prize! :D I can’t wait to see a pic of the skeleton pug! I hope you hear back from the coordinator soon. I don’t like Tofu, but I LOVE anything Bang Bang and will have to look for the G Hughes Bang Bang sauce. @vegan4lyfe2012 I’ve heard good things can happen with the Daniel…

  • I am Teresa, and I just turned 59 yesterday. I live in Georgia with my aging husband, Joe, who has dementia. I also live with my mom, sister, and little dog, Maggie Mae. I work part-time for my church as their ministry assistant. I’m in a lifelong battle to get to a healthy weight, and I refuse to give up! Good morning!…
  • @Cornanda That is too bad that your work team is breaking up. Hopefully, it will all be just as good if not better! *fingers crossed* @trooworld What fun to get into a pair of pants you have been hanging on to. And I can totally see the difference in your face-to-face pics. Those meatballs look soooo good!! :) @Katmary71 I…
  • @micaroo4 Well you can’t always make a man use common sense. I have that same issue with my man from time to time. Good thing you stocked up on the gauze! :D @19shmoo69 Oh my goodness! Did I miss that you had an accident? I will be praying for you! <3 @Your day of gardening was a great workout, and I bet you were exhausted…
  • @micaroo4 I would insist that Rich talk to his primary sooner rather than later. If he was to have a vein rupture while sleeping, it could be terrible. My sister had a couple of bad scares, and that is what made her to a vein specialist. @Katmary71 I remember when our Macy’s closed. I got a ton of good stuff from there! :)…
  • @trooworld I hope your back is better today! I have seen those protein toaster pastries. I would see what kind of fake sugar was used and try to avoid that in the future. Have you looked into making your own Chaffles? You could cook it in batches and then freeze and reheat the toaster. I like to put butter, cinnamon, and…
  • @trooworld Ugh, sorry you hurt your back, and I hope it heals up quickly. I just looked up Chlie Colorado, and it looks delicious! What recipe did you use? :) @vegan4lyfe2012 That is exciting about getting to be on the Tea Lovers Tea Club review team. I can’t imagine a bigger tea lover than you! :) How is the baby doing?…

  • @Katmary71 I hope all goes well with the extraction and that you heal up quickly. <3 @trooworld Yeah, not having a washer/dryer would be a deal breaker for me. At least you have one in the complex and don’t have to drive somewhere, which I’ve done in my younger years. You are doing great with getting in movement! :) Hello!…
  • @Katmary71 Yeah, I was looking at Tank printers, too, and I love how long the ink lasts. I want to print checks at home instead of going to the office, which will be very helpful as Joe progresses. I will let you know my thoughts on the Nitric Oxide supplements. :) Your dinner bowl sounds yummy! I read those four questions…
  • @Cornanda Thank you! <3 @Katmary71 I’m glad you will be able to do the mushroom class. I’ve been looking at printers for home. Mine is old, and since I work so much from home, I would like something where the ink lasts a little longer. Plus, my current one is black, and I want a white one since it sits in my bedroom.…
  • @vegan4lyfe2012 I’m so glad you could release stress with your therapist. I’ve never done any therapy but have often thought how helpful it would be if I did have someone I could unload on. I understand your urgency to get your weight under control before you are diagnosed with type 2 Diabetes. It’s also one of the main…
