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.

Good morning and happy Monday!
49° and really windy here at the moment, but we have SUN! Hurray!
I'm hoping for a gym trip at some point today. But other than that, not a whole lot of plans at the moment. Well, we have another siding company scheduled for 2pm Thursday (again...Lol). Fingers crossed this one works out better than the last.
Sending wishes for a Magnificent Monday!
BBL

Hello everyone,
Lora, yippee for sun! We have a beautiful sunny morning here, but it is pretty chilly. I hope you get your trip to the gym and some outdoor time in today.
Saturday was beautiful here and I was able to get a lot of outdoor work done. I picked up more branches and sticks and mowed the big area behind the house. Today I hope to mow the orchard. I am excited to see that 3 of the apple trees that I have been trying to save from disease and blight, are in full bloom. I need to spray dormant oil after the blooms fade, but I may actually get apples again this year! I was pretty beat when I got done and then got minimal sleep broken up with nightmares and weird dreams, so I got up feeling terrible yesterday morning. I cleaned the house a bit and dozed a bit, and both DDs came over around lunchtime. YDD still had to use my laundry because she doesn't have her new dryer yet. Not sure if I mentioned it, but their dryer broke down and they were going to just replace it but discovered that it is a gas dryer. That meant that they had to have the lines inspected, and order a gas dryer instead of electric, so those are special order and the whole process has taken a couple of weeks. They are supposed to get delivery this Friday. Anyway, they started their load and went up to the AT to hike with their dogs, and ODD came by with her dogs. Just a little craziness but the dogs have so much fun together! After they left, I vacuumed and then went and laid down for a while. I could hardly keep my eyes open for the rest of the day. I slept well last night and feel pretty good this morning. My virtual interview is supposed to be at 1:15 this afternoon. I hope it goes better than before! I'm going to get some things done around here this morning, but I'll be back later. I hope everyone is having a good Monday. Waving to all,
RobinMD

Hi Robin! Sorry for the crappy sleep. I definitely feel for you on that! Sounds like it was a good weekend for you (other than the awful sleep). Good luck with the online interview this afternoon! If all of the technology plays well with others today, I know you'll ace the interview part.

Hello All - went to my gym class, then came home and waited for the repairman to come (supposed to come bet 9:00-1:00). I got a call about 10:00 saying the part will not be in until this afternoon, so we made an appt for tomorrow morning at 10:00 (glad I didn't have a 9-1 or a 1-5 again)! SO....then I walked with DD later than we usually do.
Lora - sunny here too, but chilly. When I went to walk with DD, I just had a sweater on and had to borrow a coat from her - lol!
Robin - yeah for sleeping well last night. Good luck on the interview today!
OK...off to Hallmark and then I have Book Club this evening at a Mexican restaurant that is close to me. Yippee - glad it is close.

Hello again,
I was pretty ticked off and disappointed today. The person that arranged this interview in the first place last week, just didn't show up on the virtual meeting. I waited for 15 minutes for her to get on but she just ghosted me. I emailed her and said I was disappointed that she did not keep our scheduled interview time. I told her that it is fine to let someone know that you are no longer interested, and it is kinder than letting them waste their time when they could have scheduled that time with someone else. I thanked her for her time and signed off. I looked further into the practice and found that they offer NO benefits. I would have not wasted my time in the first place! I went out and cleaned out my car...it was a total mess and I really needed to do it weeks ago! It was a gorgeous day, but never warmed up a lot. There is a frost advisory for tonight, so maybe this will be it for the really cold temps at night. Tomorrow will be a really nice day for some more yardwork.
Susie, I hope you have a nice time at the book club meeting and Mexican restaurant. I am really craving Mexican food right now!
Lora, I hope you had a good day and were able to do whatever you decided to do.
Well, I'm going to see about making some dinner. I will be going up early again tonight and hoping for a good night's sleep. I will be back tomorrow. Waving to all,
RobinMD

Lora, glad you have another appointment for siding this week. Fingers-crossed it goes well. Susie, hopefully your repairman appt. goes well. Glad you got to the gym. Robin, I hope you had a great interview today. So nice you had time with your DDs and dogs too! I am feeling so much better, but dealing with laryngitis and coughing. It was a fun day playing American Revolution games that the students made and Earth day activities. A room parent made patriotic cake pops for the two classes. Waving hi to all! Jana and Janet, I hope you have a great day!

Part two, Robin I am sorry about your interview. Sounds like that WOULD NOT have been the place for you. The exact right job is there for you, and they'll be lucky to have you! I agree Robin, I am wanting Mexican food too, now.

Back home since the restaurant was close AND enjoyable...yum ...even brought some leftovers home.
Robin - glad that at least you didn't waste your time with having the interview, but how rude.
Jill - if what you have is like what I had, it takes FOREVER to get over it...glad you are slowly improving.
