Quiet Saturday here. Much warmer too but no rain. I'm cooking pot roast with veggies for DD and her family who are coming for dinner. We'll celebrate DSIL's birthday with an official New Orleans King Cake (one of his favorites)
Hope everyone has a great day!

Welcome Sparkle! Some of us do points, others count calories or Simply Filling etc - whatever plan works best for each.
Linda enjoy the festivities - sounds like fun.
A typical Saturday for me here - chores, errands and tonight staying in with a rented movie.
Hope everyone enjoys the day!

Welcome Sparkle! I do WW SmartPoints. No big plans today. I'm working on the shopping list right now. Not feeling too inspired just yet.

It has finally stopped raining here in Santa Cruz, CA. Many, many roads impassible with rock/mudslides. It is quite the mess.

Good morning everyone
So glad the tile is all installed on tub surround. It's perfect. They grout on Monday. It's a light color grout so everything blends. No checkerboard. Lol . It's one less thing to think about.
The wood look tile floor goes in on Tuesday. Little nervous about that. Will feel like a new women when both bathrooms are done.
Today I have a hair appointment. Looking forward to it. I have been growing my hair out for months and now thinking about cutting it again. Lol. Too much upkeep. Tomorrow going to a dinner party. 😀
Linda - the new tile is still Arazona Tile Regis. But this time the Bianco color. It's grey based and my lighting in the bathroom makes it a perfect light taupe. No orange at all. The avatar picture makes it look darker than it is. Thank goodness we didn't install the Regis Beige. Was so dark and orange it would have looked horrible. Enlarge the avatar and you can see the 2" tile designs. The 2" is in the niches on right shower wall also. Will look better when light grout goes in on Monday.
Welcome sparkle. I am on WW program.
We we did ok with the rain. No flooding here.

Good morning all. I'm sorry I missed the thread yesterday, have fallen off program yet again after weeks of having an easy and committed time. It is really hard for me to get back on plan - I need to re-review Beck and get my attitude straightened out, remind myself that the entitlement I need to focus on is the entitlement of having the advantages I have listed. Eating makes me feel good before and during, but miserable, depressed and hopeless afterward. It helps just to write this out.
My DS, DDIL and DGS were here overnight unexpectedly and it was wonderful to have them but my house needed to be declared a federal disaster area by the time they left. He's a sweet baby but the chaos he generates is amazing. Anyway, I'm pretty much all straightened up now, just doing lots of laundry. I need to make up my supermarket shopping list and take care of that this afternoon and do meal planning and prep for the week. I'll be in the city for a good part of tomorrow and tomorrow night, so need to do chores today and get set up right for the week ahead.
Sounds like everyone here is doing well. Sparkle, I'm doing SmartPoints although elements of it annoy me greatly. If I had the time, I think I'd count calories, but I do really like the meetings and mostly I've done ok enough with the program.
Have a great day, all.

decolady so glad you went with the Bianco color. Great idea to use the same tile but in a lighter shade. Love the design with the picture frame with 2" tiles on the back wall; it turned out great. Aren't you getting excited to be done?!! You should receive a discount since you turned out to the be the on-site supervisor and caught so many errors.

keshet51 Andi, we all have times when we're frustrated and weight loss just seems like such hard work. Just easier to throw your hands up and grab some cookies. Come here to vent, we feel your pain. But, making a grocery list and getting your house straightened up are good first steps. Cooking an OP meal will help a lot. Oh, and increase the water; that helps me flush out sodium and hydrates me.

Linda - could not have found a better tile. The Italian tile quality is beautiful. Looks like natural travertine. Did you see the 2" across in front of tub? Thank you for the compliment.

Linda: Enjoy the festivities tonight. Did you make the king cake or did you buy it at a bakery?
Welcome, Sparkle: I do the SmartPoints program although I've been doing this so long in a way I do my own thing although I always weigh and measure.
Lani: That does sound like a mess where you are.
Marilynn: Your bathroom looks great. When you have your groceries delivered how much do you tip the driver?
Andi: Are you doing something special in the city tomorrow? You can do this. Go job doing the meal planning and prepping.
Getting out to do the grocery shopping after lunch. A bit cloudy but sunny enough for me and it is in the 30's which is better than the 20's.

Judy - they are not allowed to accept money. I offer a bottle of water. I do this almost every week. They offer free delivery if over $150 and if choosing 5 products from a long list I use anyway. Then free items of the week. Still get the same in store discounts. Love it. Our home delivery is Von's/Safeway. Thank you for compliment on bathroom.

Hi Sparkle. I do WW smart points but am double tracking this week on Lose It to see if I can increase my protein.
