Went for a walk today even though the rest of my walking buddies bailed. :)

Country-style pork ribs seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic powder and chili powder. Then covered with Sweet Baby Ray's bbq sauce. They smell so good!

We have a pork roast, potatoes, carrots and onions in our crockpot waiting for us! Very excited to get home and eat:laugh: I will also be putting a programmable crockpot on my Christmas list. But I have a feeling I won't make it until December without buying one. This will allow the crockpot to go to the "warm" setting…

Fall is here and bringing fall sports and busy weeknights so I use our crockpot more. Great recipes here.

Yay, Jeanne! So happy to know you.

My PR for a 5k is 33 minutes, that was a few years ago. A friend and I just walked/ran a 5K this past Saturday and we finished in 37:30. There were a couple of hills/slopes, but for the most part it was fairly flat. I've been running off and on for about 4 years. My first goal when doing a race/run is to finish. My second…

Me too! Well, a bit south, but work in Davenport, IA.

Conda for sure. I don't think they've had to do much editing to make her out to be the witch of the house. :laugh: Although, after last week, Kim is my #2 vote. If I had a dollar for each eye roll, I'd be a rich woman.

Congratulations!

Someone else posted a Hungry Girl recipe as well. I have one of her 200 under 200 calories cookbook. It has fantastic drink recipes.

Hugs friend. Thank you for putting this into words for others to see/read. I know how hard this is for you. You are one of the strongest, most determined women I know. You won't stop until you figure this out. I just know it. Love you Marla May!

Dear Sara Lee, Thank you for the blueberry pie. It was delicious, as always. Sincerely, stuffed and happy

Dear Grateful for precious new life, Congratulations on your new grandson! Babies are such blessings. Enjoy! Signed, Mom of 3 blessings

Dear Hubs, What crawled up your *kitten*? Love, Your annoyed wife

Dear Mother Nature, The snow you sent us today was perfect. Seeing the flakes fly around but not sticking to the roads was so peaceful. I wish it would always be that way this winter. However, I'm sure my kids would be heartbroken. Sincerely, Pleased to not have to navigate snowy and slick roads tonight

Dear I hope everyone is happy where they are, You did make me laugh. You did make me cry, but only because I'm jealous. I have visited the coast of NC many times and I should have applied to college there.... Sincerely, I'd like to relocate to NC

Dear Hubby, Thanks for calling me on your lunch hour just to tell me that you love me. I know that your friend separating from his wife (again) because she's cheating on him (again) has you worried about him and relationships in general. I'm sorry if I sounded out of breath. You caught me running on the treadmill. I love…

Dear Lives in NC, works in NC, LOVES NC, I'd complain, but I've done this to myself. Sincerely, Loved NC each time I visited

Dear Why the frak do I live here again, Don't you live in Iowa for the scenery? HaHa!!!! Sincerely, Lives in Illinois, works in Iowa

Dear Mother Nature, Thanks so much for the sunshine this morning. I do realize that it is November and I am in Illinois, but the trick you pulled on us was not funny. Yesterday, we hit 71 degrees. Broke a record for the high temperature on November 22. This morning it was 19 degrees when I woke up. That was uncalled for.…

10 minutes? I'm jealous....:laugh:

Dear Friday, Thank you for getting here. I know I complained a few days ago that you were taking forever to arrive. Now that you're here, hang around a while. We've got a lot of catching up to do. Love, Thankful

Dear Deer, Please stay off the roads tonight. You're only going to get yourself killed. Mostly, I don't want to be the one who does it, seems how I'll be in my VEHICLE. If you really have a death wish, hang out in the woods and don't run for the people in orange. They're better equipped than me to take care of that wish…

Oh. My. Word. I love all of the "Really"s.....

Dear Cell Phone Using Chick, Seriously? You nearly ran into me at noon. Quite literally since WE WERE WALKING IN A HALLWAY!!!! Hang up your damn phone and walk. Love, Fed up with the freaking cell phone

1. For me, learning portion size was key. Measuring and weighing was huge for me. 2. For me, I learned that I actually enjoy running. I don't push myself because I want it to continue to be enjoyable. 3. I learned that I am worth it. 4. I learned that the DH and kiddos will eat when they're hungry enough instead of…

Congratulations!

Thank you so much!

Thanks for the original post as well as all of the replies. I've recently been diagnosed with a Vitamin D deficiency. I just picked up some supplements. I'm anxious to get them started to see what, if anything, I notice. Thanks again!

Marla - YOU raise US up! You are such an inspiration. You truly have no idea what you've done for us And, look at yourself again. Notice the muscle definition in your thighs. It's there hon. You did that! All you! :drinker: :heart: :flowerforyou:
