Good morning.
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.
Feel free to jump in and join us. All are welcome here.
Our motto is persistence, not perfection |

Good morning everyone.
I had a busy packed weekend. We did some more packing at Dad's apartment and taking things to Goodwill and giving things away. I think if we spent a good solid day in the apartment I could be done and get the lady to come in and do the move out cleaning and get the carpets cleaned and we would be done. There isn't that much left in there, the problem is finding time to do it. There are also a couple of heavy pieces left that we will need help with.
I rejoined the gym on Friday. I haven't actually been yet but I do plan on going back.
This week promises to be busy for me. Today I have counseling, I need to go by DMV and get my Dad's car put into my name, and pick up some pictures I had printed. I also need to find some cute frames for a couple of the pictures. I found a picture of my mom with a big smile and giving thumbs up. I am having that printed and framed for my sister and myself. I found a picture of my parents from my sister's wedding - It has always been a favorite for me. I am getting that framed for my Dad. I have an appointment for a massage on Tuesday and Friday is our company holiday party. Saturday is my Christmas with my sister, her step kids, her grandchildren and Robin and my kids and grandchildren.. We will also have a couple of friends there that we always invite to our "family" events.
Hope you all have a great Day- I will try to check in later but it will probably be tomorrow before I can get back. |

Good morning friends. We had a good time at the movie yesterday and getting to spend some time with ExDSIL. It was a little funny, she met us at the theater and when she walked into the lobby we both busted out laughing. We both had on jeans (the same color fade), taupe sweaters of the same shade and style and brown boots. Yeah, sometimes her and I are A LOT alike. Haha. It's warm and grey here today (right not it's mid 50s). This time of year humid and warm equals means instability in the atmosphere, so potentially severe stuff can form. We're supposed to have rain moving in at some point, and the possibility is real for severe thunderstorms with possible high gusty wins, hail and possible spin up tornadoes. Sigh. I'd much rather it be cold and wet that warm and wet this time of year. Anyway, I popped to my little local mom & pop grocery early this morning for a couple of items. They had a good price on chuck roast, so I picked up some and just plopped it into the crockpot with all of the ingredients for Italian Beef. I'm already thinking how delicious supper is going to be. Jana - dang girl. Your week does sound really busy. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd say you're about at Level Susie.  Not much else happening around here today. I hope everyone is having a good Monday. |

Hello Everyone...was up early and off to the gym...we did kick-boxing weights and the stretch bands today...boy, I will be sore tomorrow. I went to DD's and walked her doggie with DGD, then made a quick stop at Publix. There is nothing else I HAVE to do today, so I plan on STAYING home and trying to get gifts wrapped, cards addressed, and some reading done. I hope I am successful.
Jana - will your DSister come here for your celebration on Saturday? Glad you got more done at the apt...I know you will be glad when that is one chore completed. The framed pics is such a good idea...DS and DF will really appreciate it I'm sure...and something nice for you to look at each day too!
Lora - Funny how you and XDSIL dressed alike. Had to laugh at you saying Jana was at level "Susie" - ha ha ha.
OK...off to start doing all those things I need to get done today.

Hi everyone, Just a quick hello...I left work just a little early, so got home at a decent time. Tomorrow I am getting my permanent crown put on, and then I need to go get 2 new tires. I am using some of my Christmas bonus money for that. I have been needing them for a couple of months, and I just don't want to let it go any longer. I got up this morning with about an inch of snow on the ground. It is still there, so I guess the temps didn't get much above freezing today. I think we are expecting rain tomorrow. Yuck. Jana, glad you are getting so much done with the apartment. What a great idea for the pictures! Those are treasures. I hope your counseling session was good today. Lora, I hope you didn't get any tornados today. I saw some pretty scary videos on the news of damage in the south. I couldn't tell if Alabama got hit very hard. Did you like the movie? Sounds like you had a nice time! I also laughed at the "level Susie" comment...and I totally got it! I don't think I could keep up, myself. HA! Susie, you were talking about the dog walking, etc, and made me wonder how the knee is doing... did the anti-inflammatory help? I know how much you enjoy your walks! Well, I am going to get going. I won't be up very late tonight. This weather just makes me want to snuggle under the covers. Last night was a 3 dog night! My little pittie gets right up on me, and likes to be touching me all night. It is oddly comforting, and I like having her there  Unfortunately though, she snores like crazy! HA! The dogs just love sleeping together at night, and staying warm, and it keeps me warm, too. I will be back tomorrow. My dentist appointment isn't until 1:30, and I will stop and get my tires after that. Have a good night everyone...I'm waving to all, RobinMD |
