I’m pretty much  diving in head first. I think that I will start at the door and try to work my way around the room. However, that’s very much subject to change!

Glad to see you reporting in again. I know I said that already!

I remember when we last spoke at length you were having some medical symptoms you were trying to get to the bottom of. Did you ever get any answers?

I’m sorry you’re feeling so lousy!😢

Today, so far, has started well for me. We’ve had a cold front come through that dropped our temperature from 98 on Tuesday to 78 yesterday. We woke up to 53 degrees this morning!

I could really just cut and paste my days in here. Cleaning out the house, steps and liquids.

I am working on the self assessment…[Read more]

I got my 15 minutes of walking in…just in five minute spurts! (I purposely walked to places I would have driven to on the way home…cuz the rain threw me off, man!)

If others are into it and someone else besides Nikki coordinates it (because, much as I love you all, it’s Pledge planning time and I don’t have time to coordinate) go for it!

Try posting this in the FB group as well to get feedback. 🙂

Ok so I will recognize first and foremost that I am stepping out of bounds of what is my business here to ask but…

Why does your MIL have so much control over what happens in your house?

That. Right there. Is how you can tell you are not making excuses. You are adjusting your plan to fit your reality.

Now make it so! 😉

Actually, that’s a great idea! As I forgot to get milk when I went grocery shopping yesterday, I’m going to pick up some baby carrots and the such when I go get milk. I’d love to eat fruit but find it’s best if I have it at the end of a meal to avoid that special drop in blood sugar.

I’m so stoked you posted early! And your day sounds way funner(er) than mine. 😉

Robin how do you do with fruits and veggies? Whenever I find I’m too snacky (for whatever reason), baby carrots and veggie crudites become my best friends. I know you are supposed to deal with the reason you want to eat and yadda…but sometimes quite frankly I have to engage in what I call “defensive eating,” or, eating very filling foods that…[Read more]

I’m so glad you’re taking a proactive stance on the “scale surprise.” It’s easy and understandable to get down about that sort of stuff. But I love that you are instead taking action!

So you’re going to a conference, eh? Question: How many conference meals do you think you’ll be having? (Conference meals = meals provided directly by the…[Read more]

Basically a repeat of yesterday. Walking, liquids, cleaning out the house.

Update on my husband’s job situation – on Monday, he sent an application to another company that’s within the same company (if that makes sense). Basically does the same thing at a different location, but makes money instead of losing it. Then, yesterday morning, they…[Read more]

True fact: recipes cannot be copyrighted. So it’s not illegal to share a recipe you got from a book with someone else. Good form would be to share the recipe along with book information (title, author, and probably a link to the book). The one caveat is that you should never post a photocopy of a recipe book. If you share a recipe, you’d need to…[Read more]

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!

I love this post.

You toot that horn, Maria! You have every reason to be really proud.

Ok I am nosey. Let’s talk more about this cleaning lady situation? What is stressful to you about the cleaning lady?

Sounds like you’re holding up well. KUDOS!

SUE!!!!!

You just made my day. Heck…my whole week. <3

I’m a bit brain dead today and can’t think. So, I’ve run errands, including getting a new fitbit so I can put my old one out of my misery! Cleaning out the office (all week), finishing up the laundry. Walking (I know that this is a cross training day, but I’m a walker)

Breakfast was a Premier Protein water

Snack before walking into the grocery…[Read more]
