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.

Good morning and happy Friday! (or Fri-YAY as Jana usually writes  ) Lora, oh goodness, I am wondering how anyone can have a low checkout at Costco, lol. We haven't been since we've moved up here, but down south DH loved going on the weekends... all the mini meals kept him busy while I shopped. That was a fast turn around for your painting studio. I hope you had a good night's sleep last night. Susie, I am glad the migraine medicine is working. Thank goodness! You must be exhausted after all the festivities... I am sorry you were feeling stressed last night. ((((hugs)))) RobinMD, happy TRUE Friday for you! Glad you will have the weekend off. Sounds like it'll be a busy day today. Janet, glad the doctor visit was uneventful. Do you have any pool plans for today? To answer your question, the students come back August 11th. Teachers officially go back August 2nd. I had fun yesterday in the classroom. I made a library "living room" which I love. Last year I didn't do it because of Covid. We might have similar protocols this year, but I am still going to have this in the room. Last year's room wasn't as inviting due to restrictions. This morning I think I am going for coffee with my colleague. Maybe?? Waving hi to all! |

Hi Everyone,
Not sure yet about plans to swim but likely. I want to get to the gym today for a bit. I went 3 days in a row, missed one day in between and didnt get there yesterday as they were predicting heavy storms in tha afternoon which didnt come until later. At one point there were tornado warnings. While it didnt affect right where I live but at least 2 werent so far from me. ( about 1/2 hour away)..roofs were blown off, trees down on houses,etc. According to reports no life threatening injuries tho. Some of my cousins live up in those areas.. may check to see if they are ok.
I had planned to go shopping up in that area at the mall but the mall itself and the streets nearby are affected so will wait a few days before going that way. Nothing that can't wait.
Jill, I go back on Aug. 9th. The kids come on Sept. 1st.
Susie, hope you will feel less stressed today.
Have a great day!

Good morning friends.
Jill - thanks for starting us off. Enjoy your coffee with your colleague.
Janet - I definitely think you're right, waiting a few days for any clean-up and such to happen around the mall area is probably a good idea. I'm glad none of that weather landed in your area.
Robin - I hope you have a great weekend off and that today isn't too hectic at work. I always enjoyed when I got a Friday that let me kind of ease into the weekend. Fingers crossed for you!
Nothing special planned around here today. Mark is working at the office, then has the patio dudes meet up afterwards, so just me and the bun...and he's snoozing hard at the moment, Lol. We're in for more hot and humid today. Truly just another day around here. I did get a new book in yesterday that I ordered earlier in the week. I guess it falls into the "self-care" realm. I started it yesterday evening. It's called Chatter: The Voice in our Head, Why it Matters, and How to Harness It by Ethan Kross.
Well, not much other news from here. I'll check back later. Happy Friday everyone!

Hello Everyone...today is a new day. I got up early, but did not go to my gym class... instead went to the neighborhood water aerobics. I have relaxed, had coffee and a light breakfast, done some laundry, goofed off, and am about to head to play Hand & Foot.
Jill - thanks for starting us... You know I used to be very cautious at COSTCO and rarely even spent $100...not any more - ha!! Love the Library Living Room !
Janet - sorry about the heavy storms and tornedo warnings....jeesh!
Lora - hot and humid here too...and the mosquitoes are driving me crazy. ODD headed for the beach for the weekend and I told her that I would be borrowing her "sprayer" and "garlic solution" which she swears got rid of those insects all of last summer from her yard..............................

RobinMD - hope you have a good day and a great weekend.
Jana - what is the latest on the house...everything finalized?
I have a question for those of you with hummingbird feeders. I refilled mine and I guess I spilled some of the fluid...anyway... I have bees around it... oh I hate them...yellow jackets I think. I brought it in and tried washing the outside off...took it back out. They are back again. What should i do?

Went to the gym this morning for a bit and then went swimming for a bit. Tonight I am not having dinner with my sister so on my way home I stopped and bought some schnitzel at this place nearby. They had a bag of cherries that didnt have so much in them. The ones that I usually see have way too many. At another little market I go to I bought some fresh spring mix and some tomatoes and a cucumber..I will have it with some basmati rice.
I am going out to my other sister's tommorow night. Sunday no plans of yet-maybe swimming at least if the weather is nice. I havent heard back from my other friend and not going to keep texting her. We dont really get together but once a year so maybe our friendship has gotten to the point that she doesnt want or has other priorities so I wont keep pursuing it. If she contacts me we'll see.
