Happy Thanksgiving Barbie-Thanks for the offer to help me with posting graphics. I’ll be in touch. I loved the video. Sounds like some of the people who will be at my table. LOL Kimses in MA- Love the picture of you struggling with the same habits. Funny, it looks like me though. Sylvia- Loved the outhouse pictures. Thanks…

Good morning all. Happy Sunday ! Phyl in Cincy

Hi everyone Sylvia- Sending hugs and prayers to you. You are an awesome Grandma. Pip- Glad to hear that Kirby is coming home!! Barbie- I love the cartoon with the wind blowing in your post. I haven’t figured out how to do graphics yet. I stayed up too late last night watching the home team (Cincinnati Bengals-Football) end…

DJ, Sending prayers and hugs your way. So sorry for your loss. Phyl in Cincy

Good morning ladies. Just dropping by to say hi. DD and DGS spent the night so the morning routine is a little more hectic as we get ready for work and school. Prayers for those who are hurting, travelling or in need. Hope you all have a great day. Phyl in Cincy

To Sylvia and all of our other vets, THANK YOU for your service. To the Moms, Wives, Daughters and Sisters of Vets- THANK YOU for all that you do/did to support your Vet. Your sacrifices have not gone unnoticed. Tracie in Green Bay- Yes, I am also an emotional eater. The first step for me was/is recognizing that I’m not…

Good morning all, Sylvia-Thanks for the chuckle about your “nap” in the Doctor’s office. I can totally relate. I’m so glad it FITS, you are the best Grandmother ! Becca-Onederland is in my future also. I can’t wait to see what it feels like Penny- Your description of the ice cave almost makes me want to visit one and I’m…

Happy November! Thanks Barbie for the new thread and the quote. November goals 1- Log everything. I've been doing well with this, I just need to keep it up. 2-Limit television viewing and increase housecleaning in preparation for the holidays. If I can just do 15 minutes a day of extra housework, I might be able to make…

Hi all, It was a wonderful weekend here in Cincy.The end of outdoor soccer season for my DGS. He's 7 and doesn't think his Grandmother should EVER miss one of his activities. I only missed 1 game this season . Yeah me.! Gloria -praying for Alexander. Kim and Franky, I also close the kitchen. My Mom used to do it when we…

Mary from MN- Praying for your family. Michele in NC - thanks for the tip. You're right. I'm not under on my calories every day so I guess it will balance out. Have a great Friday everybody. Phyl from Cincy :)

Hi girls. Just checking in. It's hard to admit it but now I'm having trouble eating enough calories. I'm not going to obsess about it. I think I just need to plan my meals better. Anyone else had this problem? Any suggestions? Phyl in Cincy

Thanks Ladies, Now I know what a NSV is. Sylvia- Adrienne is so blessed to have you in her life. Good job ! Carol in NC, your son should buy lottery ticket. He definitely has an angel on his shoulder.

Hello , This will be short because I haven't walked much today so I still need 6,000 steps to get to todays goal. Thanks everyone for posting pictures of your travels, your families, your paintings. Keep it up. I love looking at them and it's a much better pastime than snacking. I have 1 question- What's NSV ? I've seen it…

Hopeblossom, you CAN do this! I agree with the others, log everything even if you go over your calories. When I 1st started logging I would get discouraged and stop when I went over. I finally realized I was only hurting myself. Losing weight and getting healthy is a slow process. I picked 1 skill at a time until it feels…

Good morning ladies. This looks like the group for me. I'm 54. I live in Cincinnati, Ohio. I'm finally using MFP to log every bite. I'm on a 12 day streak. Phyl from Cincy

No, you're not the only one. Potato Chips are my weakness. I'll eat the whole bag, no matter what the size. My solution ? No chips allowed in the house. If they're not here, I can't eat them.
