Food for thought to start the weekend:
October 24, 2013 - Think Thin Thursday Tip
There is a difference between what your mind finds significant and what your body finds significant. Although your mind may find it significant that everyone around you is eating something (so it’s feels okay to eat extra, too), or that it’s a special occasion, or that you’re feeling upset, your body doesn't know or care and processes all calories the same.
Good morning from Philly! Layover en route to Wilmington NC and I am excited to see my family in a few hours. Just a little sleepy although I slept the 5 hours over to PA.
Good morning all! Sending out IP POWER The weekend here! Geesh it seemed like a long week, tough work one, lots of not nice stuff happened. Glad to have some decompression time, I try to leave all the "sad" stuff at work or pieces of it along the drive home, but I just cant always do that. Lots of yard work this weekend and window washing too.
Lisa Are you going to tonights game? I'll check the score a few times but thats about it for me. It's too bad about the Eagles concert, especially after all that money.
Sarita Ohh enjoy that visit! I don't know if I could live that far from family. 2 hours away is tough enough for me.
Good Morning all! Rough night for me. Sweetie went out will friends until 1:30am so that kept me up. Then my carpal tunnel has been flaring up. It's been pretty bad, so that was uncomfortable all night. I'm trying to manage the pain w OTC meds rather than the flexiril. I've made an appt with a new doctor and pt so we'll see.
Tonight's our big Halloween bash at friends. I'm the DD so this should keep me OP!

Ain't that the truth!! I make a soup with 6 or 7 kinds of veggies every weekend and eat it all week for one of my daily 2 cup servings. I'm out of coffee, and stuff for the kids lunches. Need to take the car in early this morning for a service then 2 kids with 2 soccer games at different times. Then fix up Haloween costumes for my kids this evening. My kids are 9 and 5 and they have never seen the original Star Wars (1977) movie, so I'm going to find it on blue ray and we will have a Family Movie Night tonight!!! They'll eat popcorn but I'll find a yummy IP friendly snack to munch on. Have a lovely IP day everyone!!

We are going tomorrow nite.
I don't think the warm weather gear I got will be warm enough tho...
Today I'm going out to find red gloves, too.
I'll probably have to wear my winter jacket over my new Cardinal gear.
Isn't baseball supposed to be a SUMMER game???
Today is also our last Farmers market so I'll be prepping veggies and making yogurt (p3-4). I was supposed to go to a college football game & tailgate but that trip was cancelled due to an illness. Our alumni club teams up with one from Chicago for this trip. The bar owner that was catering the tailgate has emergency surgery.
Next weekend is a road trip for another college football game at my "home" campus. Cold weather gear is expected for football! Even tho I'm not p1, I'm still advance planning for that tailgate. I still want veggies & I've learned so do many other people, when given the choice,
I thought so then remembered they call the World Series "The FALL Classic" so maybe it's supposed to be cold! Remember one year when Toronto was in the World Series? What must that have been like LOL!!!

Good morning all!! My hubby invited me to a bull roast next weekend it's a charity event for his work. I asked him to please invite my son who is his sports, cooking and drinking buddy he thought I should go but disappointingly asked my son!! I'm not being mean but I can't drink or eat the food and I'm being a bit selfish it's with his work folks and one of my dangling carrots has been to lose 50 lbs before his work Christmas Galla which is a big event! Last year I went in a dress I hated at my fatest weight ever and I was miserable! I danced my butt off and pretended i wasnt uncomfortable in my own skin but not this year.. I'm determined to buy an awesome dress this year and show off my new figure And feel proud and great!! I'm not ready to see them now!! Ok wearing my heart on my sleeve a bit with this info started to delete it but I'm sure you guys would understand !!!
Off to make an IP omelet !!! Happy weekend to all!!!!!!
