Today I will be keeping my 2 year old grandson so it’s a little difficult to plan. Most likely a shake for breakfast, shrimp cocktail for lunch and whatever I can throw together after he goes home for dinner.
I have discovered that stress is a major part of my being queasy when I eat and my digestive uproar. After hearing what happened with my…[Read more]

Just read for an hour and will be heading to bed soon. It’s been a really long time since I’ve taken the time to read a book for pleasure. Thank you Nikki! I will need to start scheduling more time for me to do this on a regular basis.

Y’all don’t have to read this, I just mainly need to rant a moment. My older sister moved to my town yesterday. Across the street from from my son and his family. She babysits my older grandson (age 2). As my sister and daughter in law were about to leave for the day, my sis was getting Gabe into the car. According to her, and I have some concerns…[Read more]

Robin, my friend @denise-l has done the Whole 30 plan and I think she did it because she heard it would help with pain management but maybe she’ll log on and speak more about her experience.
I’m so sorry you’ve been having trouble! What does your surgeon say?

I’ve spent most of the morning reading. Some, definitely for pleasure, other, looking for a solution to my digestive problem. I’ve spent a major chunk of the day reading about the Whole30 plan and how it seems to be a decent place to start in finding out what the heck is going on!

My initial reaction. Uhhhhh…DUH!
I get that some folks feel like if they don’t eat sugar they will lose weight. I guess maybe because I’ve been in this world so long, I recognize that you can use a sugar…[Read more]

Maria A replied to the topic QOTD: (7/19) How do you feel about yourself? in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 4 months ago
I have to say, I am learning to be proud of myself, but this has taken years and years of psychotherapy and practice to do so. I am proud of myself for going through WLS and losing over 130 lbs. With the loss of weight I feel I have become more confident in myself and not as hesitant to speak up. I feel most times what I have to say is just as…[Read more]

Since I never left the house yesterday, I wasn’t able to complete this yesterday. However, I did complete today. After my allergy shots I usually stop in the little cafe downstairs from the office for a cup of coffee. I left $5 with the cashier to pay for the person after me. Unfortunately I should have told her that I wished to remain anonymous,…[Read more]

Was out the door early today to get a blood test done and get my allergy shots. I am very sore today because yesterday I had it in my head to accomplish a major cleaning project. I took down curtains in 2 rooms (they were absolutely disgusting dusty and dirty since they hadn’t been washed at all since moving into our house 10 years ago!!), washed…[Read more]

Wednesday!
No idea why I had exclamation points there because I do NOT feel great today. But the sun is shining and I’m alive so I’m still grateful.
Today is going to be a low-key day. Work, then probably home for just dinner and an early bedtime.
Eats:
Cottage cheese w/ strawberries, blueberries and Fiber one
Whatever my Lunch Bunch work…[Read more] -
Nikki Massie started the topic QOTD: (7/19) How do you feel about yourself? in the forum Open Discussion 7 years, 4 months ago
A friend of mine asked this on Facebook and it was a thought provoking question. We don’t think about ourselves a lot, except maybe to occasionally criticize ourselves. But today I’m asking you how you feel about yourself? Are you proud of who you are? Satisfied with who you are? Do you feel good about the person you are?
It’s not an easy…[Read more]

Today’s task:
Spend an hour catching up on your reading.
Now. I’m not going to put any rules around what kind of reading this is. (I personally am going to finish up Women, Food and God ahead of tomorrow’s book club discussion!) It can be a book. Some magazines. Articles on the internet. But we all seem to have things we’ve filed away because w…[Read more]

If a task proves stressful instead of relaxing, don’t do it!
Remember the main thing with this challenge is trying + holding yourself accountable.
