Awesome tree choices, I have a few fruit trees randomly spread across my property. When the house that originally sat on the land burned down in the late 80s, the previous owner planted just about anything and everything to see if it would grow. I love the little surprises we keep getting year after year. Nectarines,…

Happy Sunday Everyone! I am getting ready to make a delicious breakfast, I don't know what we are having yet, but it is definitely in the near future. My goal for today is to stay under my calories (Sundays are the hardest for me).

Great walking balancedwalker! How is your backyard coming along? Have you been hit with any of this California rain? (It has been raining steadily for 2 days here). Congratulations on getting to your November goal mathewsfive, that is really awesome. You do indeed have a busy weekend danelutza19, hope you are able to…

Well I did not lose any extra, then again, I did not gain either. Today's workout was intense. I just started a strength training routine and man I know I will not be moving very well tomorrow. My goals for the next ten days are to stay within my calories, and continue doing my new routine. Not miss a single day. The…

Buried with Ryan Reynolds. Worst movie ever

Rough start to the morning. We are running a little behind, so I will make this quick. I need to stay within my calories today and get more of a work out in, yesterday's recovery was much needed but really did not do the trick. My muscles are retaining water from the tabata training and I need to let that go.

We have grey skies and cool winds today, it looks like rain is approaching. It makes it really difficult to get up in the morning. Sounds like a fun day for you and your daughter danelutza! I got that much needed sleep last night, I think I even fell asleep before my husband (he's usually the first person to fall asleep).…

Yesterday was a rather lazy day for me, and I ended up giving in to the birthday cake and going over on my calories. I am not complaining one bit, it was delicious. Today will be better. I can feel it! My only real goal for today is to go to bed earlier, I have had a terrible time trying to sleep the last few days and…

I survived the weekend and managed to stay within my calories on all 3 days! That is a first for me. Last night I logged cake, and didn't eat it..... who does that? lol My oldest daughter is home sick today :( So my focus is on getting her feeling better. Today I start a new workout regime, I am hoping it is as fun as the…

I am at 38% and have hit my first weight loss goal mark of 5lbs lost. I am feeling rather good about myself. I still would like to catch up and eventually see my percentage mach the milestone. All in due time. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

Yesterday I spent a majority of my time making and hanging birthday decorations for my youngest daughter's 2nd birthday which is on Sunday. I didn't get in nearly as many steps as I had hoped for being so busy, but a lot of my time was spent crafting at the counter. I am still not done. I need to find the ladder so I can…

I like this, my goals are always the same with some variations, but always the same. I have been rather unmotivated with the repetitiveness of my workouts, I have been finding other ways to burn calories (massive amounts of cleaning and work outside). I have even taken up walking in the evenings if time and weather…

Happy Thursday Everyone! :) The last two days I have found it rather hard to meet my minimum calorie requirement. I haven't been very hungry, I think I may just be starting to come down with something. Today I am eating more calorie loaded foods, but they definitely will not bode well for my sodium. My goal today is to…

Day 51, happy day to all! On Day one of my journey (which ironically coincides with day one of this group) I had set some pretty big goals for myself, I am still trying to find my happy place for a steady pace of weight loss. Today I will spend some time reflecting on how far I have come and what I can and will change to…

That is so perfect. Yesterday I did a lot better than I expected to, I did not end up getting my walk in, but got plenty of movement in helping my aunt and uncle on their almond orchard. We hulled and cracked over 20lb of almonds and made delicious smoked almonds. Today I plan to get out in my yard and do some work, it is…

good luck matthews5! I ate at maintenance yesterday as well, which is surprising I thought I was going to go way over 2000... Today I plan to stick closer to my calories and get a half hour or so walk in today. Hope everyone enjoys their Sunday!

Hehehe even worse than the Lakers, hope today is better for you balancedwalker. danelutza, chips happen, sorry you did not get adequate sleep. Yesterday was a bad day for me, I weighed to see if I was on track and I had gained it all back... all that I had lost, was back... I felt pretty low, fortunately I have a few great…

Oh my goodness, you have had such a DAY, I am sorry you have had to deal with all of this. I can relate to you. I am a stress eater and only specifically worrisome occasions and stressful days can con me into eating more 'junk' than I normally would in 2 days. Hope you get some rest and are able to de-stress. Don't let…

bump.

If you deep fry them you fry them in veggie oil (or some sort of oil that is from veggies) so veggie. Can't say I would eat them with a banana filling.

Made my goals yesterday. Today I plan to do the same. Get my workout in, eat within my calories and drink lots of water.

Well I didn't do as great as I had hoped yesterday, but, today is a new day. Thank you for sharing the article. I am continuously chased by this gigantic 'I want more of everything' monster. I got in a 30 minute walk yesterday with my oldest daughter. I think we are going to make this a daily thing. It was all easy going…

@hmrey76 welcome to the group! :) Yesterday went well I met my goals, and indulged in a few beers (that fit in to my day). I weighed myself this morning to see if I was on track and I have gained a little. Time to hunker down. Today I plan to eat as clean as possible and drink plenty of water. I am retaining a little…

This cold California weather sure does make it rather difficult to manage my intake! Yesterday I nearly tripled my sodium with a large bowl of soup. Yikes! Today my goal is to keep my sodium down and drink plenty of water and sweat out yesterday's sodium overload. Hope everyone has a great day and that you are all able to…

pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and a little dash of salt makes it taste similar to french onion dip.

Good Morning everyone! Hope you all enjoyed your weekend! My weekend was awesome, although I drank a soda and a few coffees and not enough water. Today I plan to get more water and start back to my kickboxing (I have been walking instead of doing my normal routine), the weekends always does that to me. Hope you all enjoy…

I like you

Well I weighed in and was pleasantly surprised that I met my 2lb goal!!!! My goal for the next ten days and 50% weigh in is to continue on this course, eating right, earning my cheat day calories, cut my sodium and up my fiber. I am currently at 28% progress and would like to be caught up by next weigh in or at least…

Yesterday was surprisingly productive. Today I plan to stay on the same path, water, exercise, staying under in my calories and getting the girls' costumes ready for tomorrow. My daughter's school does a Halloween parade and I plan on being there with my other 3 all dressed up. I still need to find their candy sacks...…
