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.
All are welcome here.

Hi everyone!
Just popping on to get us started. It's another beautiful day here. We're planning something active for a little later, but haven't yet nailed down what - hike, or a walk, or something. We haven't really talked about specifics yet. Mark has been out on the patio all morning reading, and I've been on the laptop busy with my volunteer gig. After I finish this last cup of coffee, I'll get that conversation going.
Hoping the weekend is treating everyone kindly. BBL

Hi Everyone,
Went to the gym for a bit this morning and then a quick stop in the dollar store for a few things. Eating some lunch and then am going to try to get rid of clutter and sort through and put things away. Been bugging me see it sitting on my table and I've been procrastinating putting it away though..
I was hoping to find a platter of chicken caccaitore made up at this small deli store I go as they have it sometimes but they didnt have and I am not feeling like cooking it today.. maybe next weekend. I have a recipe in this book I used to use so I will check it out and plan for next weekend..I am definitely in the mood for pasta so I will still have spaghetti and I have one of those chicken patties that are frozen. Not the greatest but it will do for tonight..I have fresh salad stuff to have too.
Lora, hope you get something active in this afternoon. Next weekend we are planning a hike in NJ I think. NJ isn't too far from us maybe a 1/2 hour to 45 minutes drive to where we meet.
Hopefully I won't have to drive the rest of the way but it depends on how many come. Sometimes one car isn't enough or too crowded especially when you have tall or big guys who need leg room or extra space.
Nothing else really new. Just hanging out with Cassie. Have a great day!

Good Morning Everyone! I went to WI at WW yesterday and was actually DOWN a pound from the last time - STILL FREE !!!! Yippee.
Lora...they have actually allowed Lifetime members to just kind of slide during covid. The last time I weighed in was December and I don't remember the time before that, but I haven't paid anything. I am going to start WI each month just to kind of keep me on track and FREE. I haven't really been doing any counting or anything...just kind of being cognizant of what all I am eating... I had gained a little, but DH and I are really helping each other lately since he had gained some too. He was down 4 lbs this morning though (I make him weigh every Sunday). He wants to be in as good a shape as possible to walk his DD down the aisle !!! Love the pic of you AND of the hike ! I am sooooooo jealous of being surrounded by honeysuckle - I would probably have stopped right there - ha!
Janet- funny you should mention chicken caccaitore because I saw a recipe for it this morning on a WW site and threw everything in the crock pot. It is just chicken and veggies so - GF, and very low carb. DH asked why I was in such a cooking mood this morning - ha. I also made a GF apple/banana coffee cake so I could take some to a neighbor who has a birthday tomorrow and is starting chemo on Tuesday.
Jill - have a wonderful visit with YDS and his GF AND her parents !!!! If you have been texting/whatever, I'm sure you will have a great time. Yeah for getting to the gym yesterday too.
ROBNMD - you sound so happy with a WHOLE weekend to relax (well, not really...but at least not having to go to work). You should have heard me laugh out loud when you mentioned that weeding is NEVER done ! I know you will really miss your DB, that is how I feel about YDD now planning to buy a house in Mass. or even NH.....guess if there are any grands from her, I will rarely see them.😥 DH says I should be thankful that all 4 current grands and just 5 minutes away - guess that is true!
Jana - hope DS showed up and you are having a great weekend.
OH...DH and I had a great day yesterday. We went shopping and I found a dress that would be perfect for the wedding, but they only had one 2-3 sized too big AND the only had that because it was a return from an online purchase. I am going to keep looking but I think I will go ahead and order one since I can return it to the local store (Dillard's) if it doesn't fit. I think DH wants to go shopping today again... I think he just loved that we spent the whole day together (since all of the kids and grands are at the beach and I wasn't running around all over the place like I usually am - ha)!

Susie, if you can put your hands on the recipe if it doesnt have mushrooms in it can you put it in our page? I am not a fan of mushrooms as you can tell by my request. Lol.

Good morning ROs, Woke up to overcast skies this morning, so I have been doing a little outside and a little inside. I planted some things in my rock garden, and I finished planting a couple of tomato plants that YDD started for me - I only have 3, so I won't be overwhelmed by tons of them. Other than that, I just have onions and potatoes (some red and some white). Just as I was finishing up, I felt a couple of raindrops, so maybe we will get a little rain shower. We need it. I also emptied out ALL of my "tupperware" and weeded through what I wanted to keep. Everything in there now has a lid to go with it. I had a whole bunch of lids and a whole bunch of bottoms, and very few really matched anymore. It opened up a whole new cabinet space to use! Right now I am sitting with my feet up, because I smashed my toe last night and it is very sore. I do have a pair of shoes I'm able to wear to protect it. The darn thing kept me up half the night, so I just might end up having a little nap today. Susie, yippee for free! How great that you are maintaining so well, and DH is doing good, too. I hope you guys have fun today! Janet, glad you got in your trip to the gym. Like you, I am dealing with some clutter! You and Cassie have some nice snuggle time today! Lora, enjoy whatever you guys decide to get into today! I look forward to your photos  Well, I'm going to see what else I can get into around here! I'll be back later, and I hope everyone is out there having a really nice day, RobinMD |
