Just for Today I am grateful for a second helping of chances!

gorgeous

"The Panel on Dietetic Products, Nutrition and Allergies from the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA)* has issued a Scientific Opinion on Dietary Reference Values for water where the following reference values for total water intake are considered (see table). Note that the amount of water that is deemed adequate…

I sure can relate!

I dreaded Thanksgiving the same way-but then we did get into remeniscing and it was kind of funny. And that's probably what will happen with Christmas, too. I'm dreading it now- but we'll probably get into more stories which will warm all our hearts. @ Bob-New Year's Eve :laugh:

Thank you all for your understanding and compassion. I know this is not a unique situation, but rather part of the 'circle of life" as they say.. It feels like I 'forget' that she died- and then I remember with a gasp that takes my breath away. I am putting together a shadow box for all the little things that make up who…

I've got the weekends licked-interesting choice of words! I was under calories on Friday-even went to a quarter auction with nachos all around-did not partake. I deliberately delayed breakfast even though that seems counter intuitive for fueling up for the day. But if my best thinking got me here-perhaps I should try…

Duckpin bowling is a variation of 10-pin bowling. The balls used in duckpin bowling are 4-3/4 in (12 cm) to 5 in (12.7 cm) in diameter (which is slightly larger than a softball), weigh 3 lb 6 oz (1.5 kg) to 3 lb 12 oz (1.7 kg) each, and lack finger holes. They are thus significantly smaller than those used in ten-pin…

Exermom and Dee Dee-( and any other bowlers out there) Just thinking of the exercise I got as a kid and thought nothing of it. I delivered newspapers on my bicycle, up and down hills, no problem- then used the proceeds to bowl ten pins on Saturday in a youth league. Now I bowl duckpins in a Senior league-love love love it!…

After reading this thread- I think I'll go on a K cup diet. There is such a variety now- all the food groups are covered ! i love my Keurig and it's so simple.

:happy:

what she said

This seems to be the consensus-so I'll give it a go. And thanks all for your replies. I sure picked a tedious way to reply individually.ACK So much to learn.

And yet, I've heard it is important to eat lighter meals more frequently to stabalize sugars. I need to accept that just because I'm hungry does not mean I am starving!

truer words were never spoken. I certainly know that intellectually-but the hungry hungry hippo has a tendancy to grab the sugar and carbs. You are tapping into my conscience.

It's just been ingrained in me that breakfast is the most important meal of the day-meaning have a big breakfast and a light supper. Anyway- I'm willing to make the shift to light breakfast and save calories for late evening.

Doubling up on meals before bed is what I do. Going to bed hungry is what I don't do! HMmmmm Thanks-I'll think of you whenever I go to bed hungry-if they can do it-I can do it !

Didn't realize it does not matter what time I get calories in. Thanks for the tip-and the nudge to do a little research!

Exermom I think I'm going to drop the exercise from my log, too. (as long as I don't drop the exercise itself!) I have never heard the term turkey in bowling...looked it up on internet- congrats! I'll "aim" for a turkey, too. Consistently inconsistent-that's me, too. very frustrating. Although I realized my eye hand…

exermom- How do you calculate your bowling? I'm in a bowling league- duckpin. It was my "exercise" for the day. I wasn't sure how to calculate it. Thanks ps- I LOVE bowling.:smile:

:laugh:

Reward yourself WITH a dog.

HA! Love it!

I'm interested in strength training- tell me more!! Thanks

Walked around the grocery store for 40 minutes looking for treats from Baltimore to send to daughter in Alaska. Does that count? BTW I finally asked directions for one item (are we allowed to mention specific foods?) and told cashier I'd be right back as I went to fetch them. HA! I " hurried" slower than some people…

Your age will go up as your weight comes down, but you will probably feel younger!
