Happy October Everyone!
I love Fall. Time to slow down and enjoy the important things in life.
Yesterday was good with food and exercise. I have a plan for today but am hungry already. Might be one of those days. I must stay focused.
Have a good day!

I did good yesterday and slept so much better. Cant wait to have another good day today. I have a haircut planned and then will start keeping nursery tonight at church. I will enjoy it I think. We have so many young parents who want to come to Bible study but didnt have daycare.
I plan to ask ?? tonight about the zumba classes.

Thanks Debbie for starting the thread. End of month at work was a doozy for me.

Staying POP as well as within calorie range. I am getting more calories lifting and hauling things from my folks house. I'm going to declutter, I'm going to declutter, I'm going to declutter................

Stay strong!

I really plan to start decluttering as soon as my daughter moves her stuff into their new home. HOping they are in by the end of the year. I know I have 30yrs of stuff in this house and we dont need most of it. I know i would be happier with most of it gone.

Hi Everyone!
Yesterday was OP with food and exercise.
I've been doing really well and am giving a big push to get 10 pounds off BUT I am so crabby! Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
Have a focused day!

I cooked up a mess of veggies for dinner last night. First time in a LONG time. Sadly, they weren't as good as I would have liked. I'm out of practice!!

aww Heather that stinks. I hate when something isnt as good as it should be, or just doesnt hit the spot.

I had a good OP day yesterday. I plan to get lots of walking in the next few days. Our town will be having yard sales and I plan to walk to a lot of them.

Hi Everyone!
Yesterday I was OP with exercise, food was another story.

The cooler weather has me feeling like I need to nest - which normally means cooking. Working to make it healthy. May get in soup mode and get some fall goodies froze for quick dinners.

I'm off today and going to take some time for me!

Stay strong!

I did pretty good yesterday, carbs were a bit higher than I like them to be. I did make some really good choices like skipping out on the steak fries at dinner. I just a had a burger and picked off some of the extra bun.

My daughter is coming home tonight for a short visit so I will get some time with my grandson and hoping to get to feel our new addition to the family kick. She is due in early feb.

Yard sales are all over the place here and I cant decide if I want to spend my saturday going to them or not. I really dont need any clutter and finding clothes for myself is rare. I do love buying for my grandkids though. I guess I will see how the weather is and then decide.
