I really didn’t get anything but some rest done. The rest was needed and I don’t feel bad about it at all. However now I’m tired and going to bed! Good night!

Does the author or the book have a website or Facebook page that they have publicly shared the recipe before? If you could find a link to it that would be awesome! other wise I bet @nikki-massie could chime in.

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

Today’s goals are to shower, finish vacuuming the house, and actually go outside and fetch my mail.

Woo hoo!!!  Congratulations. That’s great news! It must feel great to have your independence back. And to have less pain. I’m so happy for you 😊

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]

I think I have finally narrowed in on why Tuesdays have so much potential but they end up sucking. It’s the Cleaning Lady. I can’t stand the cleaning lady. Im gonna have to learn how to stand the cleaning lady becuase she is not there for me but she adds SO much stress to my monday night/ tuesday morning.

Today I have already been up and to the…[Read more]

Thanks for the Book info. I’m gonna check it out!

I love that so many are taking time on the self-evaluation. What kinds of things are you cooking at home? are you cooking for just you?

I’m so glad you double checked before starting the training!

Welp…I hereby nominate you as the CMO (chief motivating officer). Should you accept this duty, you’d be helping us all stay the course on this thing and acting ridiculously proud of every little thing that we do. (aka Channeling your “Inner Nik”)

Of course you are free to decline…[Read more]

I didn’t make it yesterday so today will be McD’s salad but I have the stuff to make it tonight. I think I’m gonna go with my Power Chicken Salad.

Woohoo for road trips! I Understand the work stress! do you have ideas for stress relief while at work? What kind of work do you do? are you at a desk all day? One big thing I have found that helps is on my breaks and my lunch I Walk AWAY! I go outside, I face the sun and I Breath. I have also found that hugging a tree helps. I know it sounds…[Read more]

Good Luck with everything @sueo. Sounds like you have a good solid plan!

@beffietheteach Good luck with Back to School! Forgive and Be Curious is the best way to attack screw-up! I saw something one day that said “Failure is proof of trying” I don’t like the word failure in there so I try to remember “Screw-ups are proof that I’m doing something” Please share your Crock Pot Recipe! My family is not big on chicken but I…[Read more]

@robin-miller I’m right there with you with the home office. Mine is terrifying some days. Good luck with your cleaning and organizing. Do you have a plan of attack or just gonna dive in head first?

What kind of Chicken Salad (I know you said yet to be determined but are you talking about chicken and greens or like Chicken Salad sandwich type stuff)? Figuring out how to make things that I will (a) want to eat more than once or twice. and (b) last longer than a day or two. I love your plan for the 5K. I’ve had a plan however that now much…[Read more]
