I'm doing better, slowly but steadily. Got the scale back under 300, which for me is psychologically huge.
The crazy class I'm teaching (I haven't really told you about it, have I?) is over on Thursday... well, over except for the grading... so I'll have almost four weeks to try to get my life together a bit.
Have been doing yoga again, and am glad to see that where I'm starting from , in terms of flexibility and strength, is a better place than last time. This is a long road, but I do think my slow progress continues to be progress, even with all my stall outs.
Please pray for my sister today. She has her first round of chemo today.
I had a light day of eating yesterday and then had a milkshake instead of dinner. Calories worked out but I know its not something I can do often. My throat was sore from drainage and decided it sounded good.
We are suppost to hit 100 today here. Heat index will be about 110, needless to say I wont be going outside. LOL
Heather- what are you doing with your tomatoes?? I have them laying everywhere!! dont need to make salsa this year. I dont can or make juice from them...any ideas??
Well.. fell of the wagon again.
My Friday the 13th was awful... my husbands cell phone was stolen by a customer in our store.. then a petty cash wallet was ripped off from our truck when unloading some boxes... and to top it all off, my teenage nephew left our apartment door open and so some we were robbed - all our good jewelry (they left the fake stuff) and some cash and silver dollars were stolen.
Feeling so unsettled, pissed off and kinda vulnerable too.. I ate.
Well.. it's been a few days, the scale is up but I am back on the wagon and worked out today. I did track all my icecream, chocolates and Chinese take out, so today I will track a healthier list.
Dgramie - my thoughts and love go out to you and your family. I have lost two family members to cancer and one close friend. As my 9yr old niece says who lost her mom just over a year ago - Cancer Sucks!
Slap me and convince me that a 0.6 lb loss is a good thing. It's sent me into a tailspin. I ate a freaking donut on the way home from WW. I really thought I'd lost at least 2 lbs. No more being optimistic when I walk in the door to WW. I've got to be very happy with any loss.)
I know any loss is good but I've been over a month trying to lose 5 lbs. and I still have 2 to go. Guess I need to start measuring again. My guestimates must be way off. I am so pissed and I know that every week I seem to have a day that's my choices are not good. Guess todays that day. Now it's damage control time.
I'll do personals later when I'm in a better mood.
Deb -- Yes, freeze them! I love to roast them in the oven, puree them, and then use them in recipes all winter. But you can also freeze them whole and the skins come off (supposedly).
I'm thinking of trying to dry some. We have a dehydrator we've never used, so we'll see.
I had a good eating day, and even got some moving in!
Oh, and came down all last night. We desperately needed the rain, and for the first time in forever, I don't have to water.
I'm over yesterday. It got a bit worse food wise before I got my head together but it's a bright, sunny morning and I'm over being moody and miserable.
Had a nice OP breakfast and plan to stay OP all day.
It's cut and color day! I need it.

My goodness lootlady, bad luck is certainly giving you a run right now. I sure hope things look up soon.
Deb, glad to hear your sis went through the chemo ok.
j-ann, Hold on tight, you have been kicking butt around here with your weight loss and determination. I need that inspiration. Cut and color sounds like fun. I used to color, but nature took over the frosting bit. LOL!
Carol, good for you. You know how to work the plan, not easy but doable.
Heather, I have wanted to buy a dehydrator and try drying fruits etc. Let us know how the tomatoes turn out. seriously, you haven't used it before? I guess I had better not buy one. LOL! I have enough gadgets sitting in my utility room. (never or seldom used).
Have a wonderful start to the weekend And be STRONG! Ruth
I have never used gadgets too. I think I have 5 crockpots but there have been times I've had them all going at once. I think the floor steam mop was the worst one I ever bought.
I'm using today as my WI day and 4 lbs are gone. Need to keep my head in the game over the weekend.
Ruth ps prayers being said Deb.
