I don’t think intuitive eating has to be at odds with logging/tracking.
It does take some mindset shifting though.
I eat pretty intuitively. By that I mean, I eat when I am hungry. And I eat as much as it takes for me to not be hungry anymore. Some days I get hungry a lot. Some days I don’t get hungry at all. I just sort of go with what my body…[Read more]

Apparently, I have caught whatever it is my husband had this past weekend and yesterday. It hit me after lunch yesterday. Last night was miserable.
I’m going to try to get the books to the library today, but at the moment it’s pretty iffy.
A close work friend of my husband’s died and the funeral is Thursday. We’re supposed to be taking a four…[Read more]

Ok so here’s how things shook out:
- I called my general breast surgeon and my reconstructive surgeon. General surgeon, I have an appointment with him on the 27th. Reconstructive…sigh…that’s another post but long story short, I have a feeling I’m about to have to jump through more hoops.
- I did get some of the laundry folded so…yay!
- I…

I survived Monday!
I am about to go update yesterday’s thread with how things shook out but I will just say that, unto itself, is an accomplishment.
Today the sun is shining, so I’m going to take my walk during lunch time. Tonight is Zumba and I actually managed to get my gym bag packed AND in the car. So…winning!
Eats for today:

I hope he feels better soon, too! When he’s home sick, it throws off my entire day. I’m going to be out for a good chunk of the day between lunch and grocery shopping. I’m hoping he’ll sleep most of the day. I really believe that this is stress related although he won’t ever admit it.

My weekly plan this week has more to do with mental peace than anything else. I have a few goals:
- Make appointments for every practitioner I need to see. That includes new therapist, my PCP, making my bariatric follow-up appointment (last one got cancelled b/c my surgeon had emergency surgery), the reconstructive surgeon and double checking my…

You’re doing such a great job with purging/organizing!!!
Today it is raining cats, dogs and chickens here in Baltimore (yes, chickens too lol). I think this may be the remnants of Nate but I could be wrong. Whatever it is, it’s fast moving. The clouds are just whizzing by and they bring rain on top of rain on top of rain.
At work today, I…[Read more]

Well, I can’t donate the books today because the library is closed for the holiday. So, one more day.
My husband is home sick, so that always makes it difficult to get things done. Lunch with my sis and a trip to the grocery store (without sis!) Steps and liquids, of course.
Breakfast will be a vanilla Premier Protein shake mixed with some Chai…[Read more]

Robin you were the lone Foodie yesterday! I’m sorry about that.
I needed a day off of being me. So I took one.
Today has been better, probably because I stayed in bed until I actually slept. Sleep deprivation (especially long-term) does whacky things to your body and your SOUL. But I’m better now.
Today I went and got my veggie haul from Gather…[Read more]

Happy Sunday!
I’m sitting here in the quiet with the dog. It’s about 60 degrees outside (that won’t last long) and, so far, a beautiful sunny day! (yesterday was overcast and gloomy)
I have no real plans for the day so far other than loading more boxes of books than I want to think about into my car to donate tomorrow. It has occurred to me that…[Read more]

On the job front, the Greenville group is starting to look at the job applications from the Waco group. So we’re just waiting to hear back from them. Either way, we’re still getting the house ready to sell. We’ll either be moving or have a really nice house to live in!
The home office is nearly finished. I’ll be taking all of the books still here…[Read more]

WOOHOO! All of the books are sorted! I’m babysitting my 6 month old grandson this afternoon and told my son that payment for this was he and his wife going through the books to get what they want. Because, Monday, all of the books are being donated to the library. To give you a small idea of what this involved, I’m keeping 6 boxes of books (boxes…[Read more]

I will be done with all of the books today! I’m doing a quick sweep through all of the boxes and pulling out the children’s books for my grandsons and another sweep of the house to make sure that no books are left behind. I will be so glad to have this done. My back has been aching enough to keep me awake at night. The books will be loaded into my…[Read more]

TGIF!
I need sleep. Although we all know I’ll be awake at 6 a.m. tomorrow because that’s how my body works.
Anyway…hi. How are you? Happy Friday.
I need coffee then I will be better equipped to recap my day. Be back soon!

Working on it. I got up early today and was showered and dressed before hubby was up. Left the house right after he did. Now I’m trying to finish up sorting all those books. And laundry. I wish the temperatures would at least get out of the mid to upper 90’s. The amount of laundry I’d have to do would drop significantly. Supposedly mid week next…[Read more]

Yup, sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and ask for help. Not a thing wrong with that and something I should do more.
Still working on the house. Sometimes I think that I will be working on cleaning out the house forever!
Breakfast was a Quest bar
Lunch will be turkey and veggie tots
Dinner will be leftovers.

Mid-week sweep!
I see today you meet with the nutritionist. I want to hear how that goes, please.
Have you been making more time for yourself this week? I know you made time for ME by looking at that e-book. I’m very thankful.

I have a confession to make. My daughter’s 16th birthday is STRESSING ME OUT!
And it’s my own fault.
All she asked for was a party where she could invite all her family and some of her friends. She has a big family (her dad’s side) so this requires a hall and once my mind heard “hall” it became this huge thing. And that has brought me near a…[Read more]
