Good morning everyone
Kelly, Glad you had a great mother's day. Me too! It was my 27th!! My oldest was around. My middle was being Ms Nursie, and the youngest is still in Albany, finishing up finals! I think I get to do Mom's day again when he gets home.
Ouch!! Lottie. Get thee to the dentist before it turns into a root canal job.
Bean cake I haven't tried, bean brownies were iffy.
Cattyann: I broke 2 ribs 2 winters ago, then rebroke them 2 months later so I went through a period of no exercise. Even walking hurt!! I use the pilates ball and movement is easier because the ball rolls for you but I found I had to learn how to roll. LOL!! I will say I really felt the workout in my stomach muscles. Good luck. I did nutrisystems 17 years ago...worked, kept the weight off for 5 years. You can do it yourself by using portion control and keeping the soidum low. That basically what they do.
Ruth: I LOVE afternoon naps!! Our weather is the same, gloomy and cool. Downer after a fairly decent week last week. I want to get outside but don't want to be cold!!
Debbie: I remember when my kids were young, I felt like noone else did anything. I am know to say "I just wish someone would take care of me for a couple of week" Seems like our jobs as mom's (& wives) center around caretaking of family. Includes the household chores! Everyone else gets to go off to work/school for the day and come home to crash. We have to keep going. Does not seem fair. Take your well deserved trip and have fun with your sister!!
Ms. Crockett: You mention not sure when you will get to the store. Where in W.V. do you live. MY dad is originally from Richwood. I went there once 50 years ago. To get to my aunts you had to walk over a swining bridge!! They had an outhouse!! I know it's more developed now, but I was only 5 and I the memory of that bridge has stuck with me all these yars!!
ME: Well this is starting week 4 for me and I've still only lost 3 lbs. Very sad. I was so good last week about not adding more than 1 fruit. I'm reading the book and I do know yesterday was off plan. I'm giving it one more week. It's particularly had when I'm reading the successes and I'm feeling like "What am I doing wrong?"
I might have mentioned that losing weight has been a problem since I had a bad allergic reaction to something and took a steroid for 6 weeks. Gained 20 lbs (more now) and have not been able to get it off since. And I haved really tried. I'm actually an LA weight loss member - on hold currently because that wasn't working either. Oh well. I see the Doctor again in 2 weeks. See what he has to say this time.
Have a good day everyone.
