Because of my schedule I come and go from the boards. It’s hard to keep up with social media and I’m not sure I want to. 😆 That being said it is also hard to come up with a topic that hasn’t been reviewed thoroughly by this group. And it’s not that I don’t enjoy reading the threads or participation in them, guess it’s just…

Sorry so late to wish you Congratulations, Derrick! Well done!

Good morning, Goadies.

Good morning, Goadies.

Present and been waiting in the Docs office for nearly a half hour.... Not liking the possibility of exposure.

Good day, Goadies.

Good morning, Goadies!

Nope. It was all about weight loss for me. Not that other parts of my life don’t require fine tuning. It’s just that I can’t see the correlation to my weight issues. One last comment is that I have never associated my weight with either personal failure or self worth. YMMV.

Good morning, Goadies.

Thanks to COVID, we have had no family get togethers for 4 months now. This weekend will be no different. A good part is that I am involved in caregiving so it’s not that I don’t see my dear Mom and Sister. She will be cooking and I expect there’ll be no difference in the menu. She knows I still track even though she often…

Good morning, Goadies.

I have never thought of a six month plan in my entire life. I prefer to live a day at a time. However, I will venture to participate. Regarding weight I would love to maintain exactly what I am presently. Regarding work, I hope to be retired a full year earlier than 62. I’ve had enough of the insanity. With that retirement…

Good day, Goadies.

I am 18# lighter than I was on 1/1/2020. Totally unintentional since I made my Goal weight the previous August and thought there’s no possibility of maintaining anything lower than that. I am actually about 30# lower than my Goal weight and maintaining nicely. Guess the most important aspect is that I feel great, not…

The bonus question is easier to address for me. I have never eaten cobbler. And now thanks to your topic, I WANT SOME. 😆😆 Long ago, the GoaD board taught me to eat what you’re craving rather than a celery stick. Want chocolate? Have a kiss. Want potato chips? Count out a serving and put the bag away. This lesson has always…

Good morning, Goadies!

Stupid edit feature tonight.

I am a very boring eater. In the eyes of some. In my own eyes, if I enjoy something I can easily eat it for thirty days straight until I get the urge to switch things up. Guess I define creature of habit. Covid, or perhaps more so working from home, has definitely adjusted my meals. For example, now my normal lunch is a…

I, too, don’t reward myself for eating well during the week by indulging. Nor do I factor in so called cheat days and say effit to tracking. That’s not the mentality or lifestyle I want to have. However if I am at my Sister’s our Stephen’s family home and something I haven’t eaten in a while is offered, I will definitely…

Sorry to hear about your asthma kicking in so badly, Cindy! I am VERY appreciative of the time and freedom this pandemic has provided me. Selfish, I know. And it’s not that I am without concern for those suffering or exposed or more at risk. However, this time has allowed me to work from home. A blessing in so many…

I think Living the Lifestyle is a very fluid concept. Hence my question related to living YOUR lifestyle. Generally speaking I is dislike the term for completely different reasons. Not hard to guess. If I think about how the Plan relates to lifestyle and how it is not meant to be the Decalogue, but a guide, I am more at…

Good morning, Goadies!

Good morning, Goadies!

Like Derrick, there is very little food I don’t enjoy in terms of flavor. However I am a creature of habit and so don’t often venture out of my preferences to try new foods. So there’s that. Also, couldn’t agree more about trigger foods. For me it’s salty/cheesy. I could easily eat an entire large bag of potato chips or a…

Here. Sleeping? What’s that?
