Stayed within calorie limits. I prepared the meals for four of us - ham, baked potatoes, corn, crescent rolls, carrots, cranberry sauce. I used portion control enjoyed it all. No wine today! Baked a cherry/apple pie -- sent most of it home with son. We hand washed the pickup truck this afternoon, as well as yard and animal…

And that co-worker seeing you everday -- so its especially sweet that she finally broke her silence! You are giving off healthy vibes in the workplace!!! :wink:

Just say NO! I was (still am actually) a confessed sugar crazy grandma! Enjoy baking cookies, cakes, and pies... true southern style cooking too. Well, at the suggestion of my doctor -- she said try baking with splenda -- while using less sugar. Well, I just wasn't satisfied -- I wanted to taste of the real stuff! So, I…

Break fast! It should be started early in your day! I have my African Grey parrot at the shop with me ... so when I got there this morning-- 9:30am-- we both enjoyed a banana and some peanut butter! Other days it might be yogurt. But I have to admit I do not want cooked eggs and sausage -- heavy stuff that hubby eats in…

Older and hopefully wiser! I will be 62 next week! I intend to get down to goal in the coming months...I've played with maintenance this entire year, while all the time "wishing" I was twenty pounds lighter! I've faced the demons . . . I'm ready to work for my success story! Thanks for friending me and hope we can…

I'm baking a ham, sides will be. Green beans, daughter will make the mashed potatoes, and I will bake a sweet potatoe for me! A little bit of wine, and light on the desserts! Promised son a cherry cobbler this year! I just wonT bake the pecan pie! And then I will be sure to engage in the outdoor play with the kids (ages…

No more talk here of being old! I will be 62 next week -- and I am just getting my running ramped up ... it will take some time. My one mile on the treadmill took me 20 minutes today! But I will keep moving. . . . I did aqua fitness during the summer in our pool with twenty pounds weights....getting a bit cold for the pool…

And you will notice there is an ad at the bottom of the page for this stuff "FREE" as we read . . . Yep! you will lose -- money that is! Spend wisely - save more for the things you really can eat to be healthy . Is amazing though what some people will deem as magic and spend $$ on! :glasses: Keep cool!

I came close to tossing the scale of the door this morning! Its such a evil animal! I keep seeing the same yo-yo up and down (204- to 206)! But, I am gonna NOT let this dismay and wreck my plan --- I will keep up the exercise and meal planning to stay the course! I hope you are feeling better and see more positive results…

I am going back to the stationery bike -- its on the porch or I can move it indoor if the weather get too cold! It takes less space than the threadmill ( which I have at another location). I aim for 30-minutes .... and will up that in a couple of weeks! Happy rides! :smile:

Still practicing my pic posts! This was my eye opener -- yikes! This mare has been a great horse -- she is patient with me! Janey Blue deserves a lighter me! Ive had her for almost ten years -- she wasn't ridable when I got her -- but with a lot of learning on both our parts -- she is my favorite. I also ride her…

I'm also trying to get fit to ride! I've gotten injured by a calf knocking me down -- so I have back pain -- but when this is healed I want so much to ride with daughter and grandson, and also train my horses (own ten)!!

When you want! Whether it's candy or new clothes, etc. My WANT to get in the best shape I can be far exceeds the temporary Fix of that (monster) candy! We have to fix our needs (wants) within reasonable capability of our desires! In other words what do you want MORE! Of course, I am preaching to me this morning . . . I let…

Rejoice and be glad in it! My Lord is Jesus Christ ! My body will continue to strive for getting healthy so that I might serve and be a witness for Him. My hope is not government. I will exercise today! I will eat balanced meals. I will keep my focus on the positive! :flowerforyou:

Shopping, decorating, and trucks - I own two 1950 Chev Pickups; a 1955 Chev. pu, and a '74 VW. My son wants to drive the trucks and I keep telling him he's not old enough! hehe! I did let him drive the VW - once! It was his birthday (24th)!

Baking goodies will have to take a reduction in my house this season. I will try to use a splenda baking substitute for some of the necessary cookies and turnovers. I will focus on my least favorite pies -- and like last year cut some of the excess with the big day Thanksgiving Dinner; making sure everyone takes home with…
