If you are waiting on weight loss to love and accept your body, I hate to break it to you...but true love and acceptance should be unconditional. Your body doesn't need to look like or do anything specifically to be loved, accepted, appreciated or deemed worthy. (Some words from a Connect Post.)

Happy Halloween! Final weigh in:
Good morning all. I've tracked my day and the plan is to stick too it. Stop with all the extra carbs and get my protein back up. Haven't gotten my steps the last 2 days with all the crafting and talking, but have had fun. Going to make my spaghetti squash for dinner and have a plan to get outside today. A nice lady at knitting brought me patterns for both the emotional support chicken I have wanted to knit and for some other cute items I could maybe do before the craft fair. One is a little knitted bird nest that you felt and then add felted eggs. It comes with a german tradition card that explains the meaning of finding it in your Christmas tree. I'll try to post some pics on our FB site. I made a nest last night, see if I can make so little eggs today. At lunch out we had the best belly laugh, haven't dont that in so long, like when you can't stop and barely catch your breath. We were talking about Marsha's Halloween decorating and the funny things she had put out. Then we heard this weird voice saying "Marrrrshaaa" spooky like. We looked around, the voice did it about 4 times but we couldn't see anyone, and she didn't know anyone at the tables around us. We started giggling and then couldn't stop. FInally a guy came out from the bar in the back. People must have thought we were nuts, even asked the waitress if she'd heard the voice and she looked at us like crazy people. My sis said later I see why you like to go out with the girls and have made some nice friends. Made me feels good. Peggy loaned me a 4 foot table tree that I can take to the fair. I need to take her small bulbs off it and try my items on it to see how it looks. Tomorrow is my 2nd Cricut class so I will be getting my cut outs ready today so I can use the teachers hot press to make my pot holders. Feel like I'm in the marathon seeing what all I can get done in a week and sure that gives me some stress. During my meditation this morning on FB I chose the stress and anxiety breathing. I struck me when the teacher said Follow you breath, it goes in and rises and then it always goes back out and you relax back down, or something like that. She said remember stress does the same thing, it always rises while you are worried about the event or whatever, but then it naturally goes back down when you are done. I can see a lot in that pattern of when I decide to have wine, it's when it is rising faster than I feel I can control, so I try to block out the feeling instead of riding it through, knowing it will go back down on it's own. Not sure that helps anyone but gave me something to think about. Have plenty to do today. We are down to one bag of bulbs to get in, the contractor comes this afternoon sometime and I assume we will sign up for the work. I need to get to the grocery and maybe the Dollar store. DS is on his way to Miami for the game and the Big Question, I figure it's still on, but haven't heard from him in the last few days. Guess we'll know in a few days, hope they get some good pics. Have a great Fri Yay all. Jan
Cathy Sounds like you have your day planned. No big plans for the weekend here except taking my craft class tomorrow and then a lot of college football I'm sure.
GG. Sorry to hear about the MIL but glad you will get to spend time with your brother and family. I bet your woods are beautiful, I need to find some forest path to walk so I can kick some leaves around and hear the birds. I love walking by the park but sometimes just following the pavement doesn't do the mental trick as well as being at the lake or in the "natural" woods.
Amy. Sounds like a busy day for you. My sis had the onion soup with her burger out yesterday, said it was pretty good. I never knew that about the potato vines either, I have one that needs to come out of a pot in front. Maybe I'll find some tubers too. Your quote struck home, it's often hard to be honest with myself, of course I don't like to track the junk or the A, but I know that doesn't get me anywhere so I just try to carry on. I need to get back to my protein shakes and cut out more junk. I ate some of the pumpkin bread the neighbor delivered. I took the cut up loaf to knitting and the girls ate it all up, thankfully. I"m sure she must use a pound of butter or a lot of oil to make it SO moist and delicious
. Now it's gone and the house is clear again. Which always puts me in a mind to bake ha ha. I do think I may make an apple crisp and then make some of the apples just cooked with a splenda or ? so I can just eat the filling. I had a weird dream that we were traveling and DS was still in diapers, yikes, weird fears about him growing up or what? Enjoy your day and time with the kids tonight.
Murphy Glad you got a good deal on WW. I do follow the Dry group on the Connect, some great stories and motivation there for me. Enjoy your weekend.
Time to get moving for my next hour steps. Will check back later.
