This thread is for anyone that has been away from healthy eating, had a gain and is recommitting. We accept all forms of healthy eating here, whatever that means to you. We touch base daily for accountability and to encourage one another. This is a judgment free zone.
We all struggle to get the weight off and keep it off. Sometimes this is a challenge, but we never give up and that is the key. Regardless of our situation or where we are in reaching our goal, we count on talking to each other every day and are blessed to have one another as friends.
Our motto is persistence, not perfection.

Good morning ROs. Thanks for the support yesterday RobinMD and I am feeling better today. Started to feel better after going to the gym yesterday and ate well plus got a good night's sleep. Those little things, right? I can understand your feeling emotional about firefighter funerals, especially when you have a close relationship with the person who died. Be tender with yourself these days.
I'm going to yoga this morning, then after lunch will check out the JJill sale and hopefully get some new things and then get to the supermarket. I want to keep my life really simple this week, so no elaborate food prep. I have one last load of laundry to finish and put away. Back to work tomorrow... Oh, the movie was so good last night and these young women were so impressive. I recommend it if it gets to any movie houses near any of you.
Have a lovely Sunday everyone.

Good Morning Andi and ATF...Spent an hour or 2 on the beach yesterday...that was enough, at least I got there...DH sat on the boardwalk area at an outdoor restaurant in the shade and could see DS, DDIL, DGS and me.After awhile DGS (5 yrs) wanted to go up and see him, so I walked him up and went back onto the sand. Every once in awhile I would glance up and see DH with his head turned to DGS and I just smiled... I know DGS was talking his leg off - lol! We spent most of the day with them, and after dinner drove back to our hotel in Williamsburg. Drama going on with my niece's wedding reception...oh my, with family it is always something. DS and DDIL will not be there since DGS can't go, so I am going to see if I can ride with ODD and DSIL. DH can't go because the venue is not handicapped accessible.
Andi - I read your post yesterday and feel for all of your frustration...so glad we can come here and vent...we all need it sometimes. ..glad today is a better day....I swear, getting to the gym can make the difference. I am heading to the hotel gym this morning before we leave !
Janet - whenever I was teaching and the summer was almost over (even though I taught in a summer remediation program also), I was still ready to go back. I just wish you didn't have to take all 5 weeks at the same time. Hope this year is your best yet.
Robinmd - so sorry about your loss....lovely the respect everyone has for this man and all firefighters!
Waving to everyone... heading to the gym, then breakfast, then the outlets before we get on the road home.

Good morning,
Andi, I'm glad you are feeling better today. You did say that going to the gym helps, so I'm glad you did go. Keeping things simple this week sounds like a good plan. I might think along those lines myself.
Susie, it sounds like a nice weekend, but sorry for the drama. I feel bad that DH couldn't go. He might not! HA! The beach sounds so nice....
The weirdest thing happened last night. A co-worker texted me, and my phone went crazy....it wouldn't stop sending the text, over and over, and I couldn't delete the messages, and a "unfortunately this app is not responding" bubble kept popping up, and I was going nuts. I finally turned my phone off. This morning I turned it back on and the message started coming in again, over and over. I was able to get into the phone and block messaging, so it seems to have solved the problem. I never was able to answer her anyway. So I was upset that I was going to have to get a new phone today, when I have things I need to do here, but I guess buying a new phone can wait for my day off on Tuesday. Grrrr….. I'm not even sure what phone I want. I was going to make this one last a while longer. Turning off messaging may affect some other functions of the phone, but right now, if I can make and receive phone calls, I'm good!
Guess I'll get some more coffee...it tastes so good this morning. Then I'll be heading out to work on some flower beds and mulching, before the heat sets in again. It is a beautiful morning, though. Take care everyone, and have a great Sunday. I'll bbl. Waving to all of you to follow!

Hi Everyone,
Instead of going to the beach we are going to this pool which is a drive there too and is the plan at the moment. First the guy said he didnt want to do after all (typical) then said he really wanted to go to the beach again but he didnt want to drive there either. So where we are going is still a drive but there isnt so much a rush to get to because it could be closed to capacity too although the pool sometimes has been closed for a while if packed but usually its on a holiday weekend. It also has a pretty lake and boat rentals for people wanting to do that. Knowing this guy tho he still may change his mind about where.
Andi,glad you are feeling better. That movie sounds interesting.
Susie, glad you enjoyed the beach and your time with your family. Sorry that the wedding plans arent working out so well as far as attending especially for your husband.
Thats about it for now. Have a great day!

Well, I'm going to be getting ready for bed soon.... tomorrow is my long day, and I want to get a good night's sleep, if that is possible. I got my flower bed done, and swept up a lot of grass clippings from when I mowed yesterday. I didn't do much more, because my ODD came over and we hung out by the pool. It was perfect up there. Then YDD came home from work and her BF came over, so we all hung around for a while, then I had to put everything away and clean up. It was a nice day, and I didn't feel the need to stress out over what little bit I didn't get done. The place looks good, and I can do the push mowing on Tuesday. Summer will be over soon enough, and I don't get to spend hang-out time with the girls very often, and I want to enjoy some of these things whenever I can.
It has been a sad weekend for America. Three times in one week is difficult to fathom. I hope we can figure out a way to do something about this. I won't give up hope. Take care everyone, and I hope your week starts smoothly. I'll be back tomorrow.
RobinMD
