The last few days have been hectic, so every time I went to go online to do my updates something interrupted me.

Anyway, Saturday my husband and I went to the outlets and walked around for almost 2 hours. So, I did get some 5k training done by walking, not cross training. Yesterday did grocery shop in the morning and we had dinner at some friends…[Read more]

Busy day. Started this morning cleaning out my pantry, which took me most of the morning. Then did some vacuuming of our hardwood floors. Tonight we took my mother-in-law to Lowe’s as she needed a new dishwasher. So walked around Lowe’s for at least 20 minutes. Then we went to dinner which I had baked haddock, a couple bites of mashed potatoes and…[Read more]

@susan so glad you’re having a better day. So glad you’re back checking in on the FNC!!! Wishing you luck on your health issues!!

Ooops! I forgot you @kspot42!!!! Sorry, but I also know Nik sent you one too!!! Hope your migraine is better!!

Since @nikki-massie is not feeling well today I am taking it upon myself to do my mid-week sweep.

1. Planet fitness appointment did not happen and as of yet I haven’t received any phone calls. I need to be proactive on this and I will contact them to get on the schedule again. Most likely it won’t be until next week.
2. Have been working on my self…

Feel better Nik!!!!!

I watched Nik’s replay from last night’s accountability discussion and realized 2 things about myself.

1. The reason I don’t commit myself to any live discussions within the FNC community stems from all my life having problems with anything, so to speak, “live” talks, discussions, particularly all through school and beyond. I have a hard time…

Thank you @kspot42 and @nikki-massie for your input. I will post the recipe in the recipe swap forum with the typed recipe and the changes I made as well as the book’s title and author.

It’s a rainy, chilly day (mid-60’s) here in Upstate New York. My plan this morning was to get everything cut up for dinner and hit Planet Fitness to do the treadmill (when I got there I was going to ask a staff member how to use it). Well, I ended up standing way too long on my feet cutting up the veggies and chicken and maybe because of the…[Read more]

UPDATE, UPDATE!!

I just wanted to pass along that I did make the turkey and cannellini bean casserole tonight and I think I’m in LOVE!!! It reminded me of having a bowl of pasta with sausage, without the pasta!!! I’m not sure if I would be violating any copyright laws if I were to share the recipe with everyone (the recipe is from a book I…[Read more]

Thanks Nikki!!!

It sure does and thank you @susan!!! Have missed you lately. Hope you’re feeling better!!!

You’re welcome!!

Today will be a “catch up day” for me. Laundry, picking up house, working on my self-assessment. Although the 5k training plan states that if “you are new to training today could be a rest day for x-training”, I did ride 20 minutes on my recumbent bike (yay me!!).

Breakfast – scrambled eggs and piece of gluten free toast

Lunch – most likely…[Read more]

Ole chicken and bean stew

Whole roasted chicken with potatoes and brussel sprouts

Breakfasts – Savory Broccoli and Cheese Bread Pudding and scrambled…[Read more]

Ok, totally bummed since today didn’t start as planned. I was eager to get started with designing a workout plan today and had scheduled an appointment for 10:30 a.m. this morning at Planet Fitness. Got there and was told that the trainer was off today AND the person listed on the website didn’t work there. The staff person totally apologized and…[Read more]

Pretty much a laid back day after watching our grandsons overnight. Boys are very active plus today is rainy with the high only getting to 58°!!! Hubby and I will step out later for dinner.

Meals are planned for the week and I will grocery shop tomorrow.

Also I have been working on my plan to train for the 5k, which I noted in my weekly plan.
