@kperevosnik, two things:

All challenges will be daily check-in. I’ve found in my experience of doing challenges that unless I have folks doing something every day, I lose them! (Also you guys respond way better when you have a different thing to do each day rather than doing one thing over the course of 30 days…just a factoid lol)

@nikki-massie  – I hope the August challenge isn’t a daily report in. I get confused about doing a daily check in here and a daily check in for the challenge. It seems duplication (I realize not everyone is doing the challenge).

Yippee! I’m getting my hair done tonight. treating myself and meeting the challenge all at the same time 🙂

Hey @nikki-massie, do you need this picture today?!? Hugs!!!

I’m excited about this!

My treat for today was a nap! After keeping my 2 year old grandson yesterday, I needed one. So, apparently, did my dog, who joined me at some point! 😁

Well, I think that I have figured out what was causing me to be so queasy all the time and my digestive uproar. Inulin. I know that I’m sensitive (very) to it. So, in my efforts to figure out what’s been going on, I have been reading every ingredient label of everything that goes into my mouth. Up to and including my tea bags! And there, in the…[Read more]

Dinners were pretty much on target, but breakfasts and lunches well I could have (should have) chosen better choices most days.

Other than that, food wise, not sure yet for rest of today.

I need to run a couple errands this afternoon and unsure about the rest of the day. I’m feeling a…[Read more]

@nikki-massie I will be thinking of you today and sending you lots of hugs!!!

So I finally got around to making this bread today. I did make a couple of modifications, but thought it still was delicious.

Cream cheese and I don’t always agree, so I substituted with part skim ricotta cheese (read somewhere this is a good substitute). Used Sola as sweetener and ground rolled oats (oat flour) instead of whole wheat pastry…[Read more]

Mid(end)-week sweep! How’s it going? I thought I saw you mention food the other day. Does that mean you’re back on solids? How do you feel? Any new insights?

Mid(end)-week sweep!

How’d your week go? Did you keep up with your exercises?

Mid(end)-week sweep!

How’s it going with your workouts? Getting that HIIT in? And has hubby been helpful this week. I’m sorry we missed you at Book Club!

Hey there. Just doing a mid (end)-week sweep! I’m not sure from reading your original post if you had a particular goal for this week, so I’ll just ask…how’s it going?

Check. Now can someone help me with all the legit emails I still need to respond to??!

yay! always a good task. I enjoyed this. Too many emails that need to go away…

Got rid of a few today.
