Morning-

I had the best supper last night. I made turkey meatballs from the EFL cookbook. Instead of breadcrumbs I used oatmeal that had been blended. I used tomato sauce that I made this summer and had frozen and I ate it on spaghetti squash. I had broccoli on the side. Very yummy.

I hadn't counted my calories for a while so I wanted to do a check. I used fitday and my calories came in at about 1350. I am happy with that. In honor of weigh-in day I did a little extra cardio yesterday and was happy to be down 1 and 3/4 lbs. this morning. I hope this is an indication I am on my way down again.

On the news here last night it sounded as though Wilma might weaken before it gets to you Alice. Is that what you are hearing?

ledom, congratulations on your weight loss. :high: You're really doing fantastic. I've put oatmeal in meatloaf and it was really good. I've also used crushed Shredded Wheat 'n Bran, or regular Shredded Wheat for bread crumbs.

DH & I have been watching the WC to see what Wilma is going to do. She has slowed down and now they don't know when she'll hit FL or the intensity. We don't live in an evacuation area since we live farther inland.

Hope your day is a good one.

Hi, no LaDean never won a bunch. but won to play on. never spent all i took so that is great for me. I had fun that is what i go to have. ha we had good trip going and coming. have a 2 hour drive when we get back to airport. it was good. just perfect trip. we got in there monday nite at 6pm and ate , I was real good. then we started and we were up till 7 the next morning. i tell you just lose track of time when having fun. ha ha our room was on 5th floor so that was good. i hate the high ones. i was ready for a fun one and had it. was up only 2 lbs this am. got up had my walk with beau and good one. then canned 3 batches of tomatoe juice. picked what was out there. then its up with plants and tomorrow the garden is going to be plowed under for the year and all the top soil and we put mint on it for fertizler. so its done for the year. we was blessed for sure.. so now i can get into the kitchen first from one end to another. then rest of house. always get that done. then ready for crafts and all for winter. got wood in to. so we are ready... I am so glad Ledom your losing wt and your meals sound good. yes i have made it with oatmeal.. its good but hubby likes it without. I treated myself wed nite to snack. the only nite. so i was happy with me. aleka glad all is going good your way and all. good luck to both of you. have a good week. LaDean

Hey LaDean, it sounds like you managed Vegas perfectly coming home with money and all. So glad you had a good time - sounds like a blast. You also sound like a busy bee with putting your garden to bed. This is my very favorite time of year. We are still in a major drought here and are finally cooling down. After a small taste of cool weather a few weeks ago we are finally experiencing fall weather. But we really need a rain though still none in sight.

I had so much fun last night. My town hosts a documentary film festival and the opening night featured a documentary about the bluegrass band Big Smith. After the film they performed a 3 hour concert on the patio of the Beer Garten next door. The couple I was with and I stayed until the very end. There was much stomping, hootin' and hollerin' and everyone had a great time. It was well attended yet at the same time it was a small venue and not overly so. People kept buying me beer and I just held onto it until they finished theirs and then handed mine over to them. I am still a little amazed at how well giving up this particular habit is going. I know I had just as much fun and I was so pleased when I weighed less this morning than I did yesterday! I think I burned a few calories just tapping my foot and having fun.

After a small taste of cool weather a few weeks ago we are finally experiencing fall weather and it is most welcome. But we really need a rain though none is in sight.

Alice, Just wanted to say I am thinking about you this morning and post to let us know how you are when you can.

Hi ledom & LaDean,

Hurricane Wilma is over, except for some gusty winds and all is well. We're even seeing peeks of the sun. We were on the north side of the hurricane which had the least amount of destruction. We're about 80-90 miles to the north from Naples. To the south of us is another matter. We are very fortunate that we haven't lost our electricity....yet, anyway. The temp has dropped considerably, it's almost 60° and I'm freezing. :)

ledom, thank you for thinking about me.

LaDean, glad that you got back safely from your trip and that you had such a good time.

Have a good day.

Aleka, so happy that no destruction your way from the storm. was thinking about you and lacee for sure. i know its so sad the things it does to people and all there things. i think of them in prayer.. so sad... yes had a fun trip. ready for another one. talked to my friend this am. she loss her hubby 3 years ago. use to go to reno lots the 2 of them. so i know she misses it. shes almost like a sister to me. so i mentioned today lets go this spring. she loved the idea and will even drive. said she loved the drive and always enjoyed it. so i said ok i am for it to. so now 2x year vacation. haha hubby loved the idea to as hes a home body person. so if i go keeps me in a good mood. ha ha garden is over and all plowed under for the year. so we were truly blessed this year. all ready for winter now. has been so nice and warm here. love it. rain is on way it feels. i got line dance tonite so anxious for good work out. had a walk with beau this am. also got on exercise bike and rode it 5 miles with alot of moment with arms and music on ears. ha ha so worked up a good sweat... felt so good. then eating is good to. gained 3 lbs gone. but want to get it back off. felt like that was not much at all. Hope all is going good your way to... have a good day now..

Morning LaDean and Alice. How's it going? This has been a busy week. My mother had cataract surgery on Wed. and is doing fine from it. She can already tell her vision is better which is great. I have been busy working and working out and the week just flew. I am starting to prepare for my next and last trip of my sabbatical. I will be leaving on Nov. 12. I am really excited to get to go back to New Mexico.

I have been doing a new workout this past week that seemed to shake my weightloss up again. 2 lbs. for the week which thrills me, it has been a while since that happened. I hope to reach my tracker goal by the end of Nov. May be a challenge with travel coming up but I will have a kitchen where I am staying so I should be in pretty good shape to keep up my diet.

Hope all is well with you both and have a great weekend.

Ledom. hey your trip as usual sounds so fun and all. I know you will do good. your with your program now and all. if we jsut keep working at it things will be good. i finally got mine all figured out now. this week is going great. doubling up on exercise also. have already this am rode ex bike 3 miles. did 6 miles yesterday and a walk and my abb thing. so trying to keep variety in it. seems to help me. not get so bored with it. my eating is going good to. got the old measure cup out and using it faithful. and you know i feel full. that is good. scales are going downnnnnnn so love it to.. have a good day and weekend the both of you.. LaDean

LaDean

Good morning, Did you guys have trick or treaters? After a month without one rainfall, it rained last night and we had none. Now I wish I hadn't bought candy. I'll bag it up and hide it from myself until I can find someone to give it to!

Hope you had fun last night LaDean.

How's it going Alice?

Hi , yes had fun last nite at dance. we had learn a fast one. just for fun he put on the fastest tune to it. i did it all the way. so happy with me. had a good work out for sure. and learn a new cute dance. which each week we do. i felt so tired later but a good tired. have been good today. but got into the halloween candy was not as good as you. we only had 31 kids not that many at all. daughter gave them lots. as she got for lots and so stormy and all not that many. so glad she gave them lots. hope aleka is having a good week and glad you are. have a good tomorow. LaDean

Yeah, well I had a candy "accident" too. But it is gone now - given away. I took a nap yesterday and when I woke up the first thought in my mind was "h" candy. It took me a little bit to regain my control. I skipped supper as I had already had my calories in chocolate and you know that is no way to live. Was very relieved not to see that I gained overnight. Hopefully it won't catch up with me on weigh in day. Otherwise all is well. I cooked last night as I had run out of everything I had made up. I made more turkey meatballs and healthy chili. I am set for another week now.

Hi, i also had a candy accident. ha haha guess i am a kid when it comes to halloween. ha ha but back on track. had tops last nite and loss 1.75 lbs this week and in leeway. so that is good. exercise is great adding to each day. already this am did my 5 miles. yesterday was 7 miles and a good walk. this am raining hard so no walk with beau yet. but watching and when i catch a minute its out for us. ha but a stormy day is suppose to be. so will try.. if not will get back on the ex bike. ha You have a great day now. its a new one given us. so i try to give all i got. ha ha have a good one/

Aleka...... Missing you girl... hope all is fine your way. hope to hear from you soon... LaDean

Hi LaDean, great job with your walking. You are racking up some miles. Where do you walk?

You might remember a vendor I mentioned earlier that I met at the Farmer's Market. Now that the F.M. is over for the year he is making home deliveries. He bags the most fabulous greens and he and his wife makes these flax seed crackers. I am not sure how but the base seems to be egg white to hold them together. They are basically just seeds. Anyway he made his first delivery today and also brought a sample of a salad dressing they are making. These are really "health nut" type people so even though I don't know the ingredients I suspect nothing bad in it. It tastes very nutritious and not oily or creamy but thick still. Next time I"ll ask the ingredients, I suspect some ground nuts and herbs and spices. Anyway kind of interesting and I did have a great salad for lunch.

Yes Alice, hope all is well with you. Do stop in and say hi if nothing else. I miss your posts.

Hi, oh that sounds so neat and good. i love different things to. yes might be a good idea to know what is in them. but i would not question it either. is ncie they do it. we give so much of our gardens away of year. people are so thankful to get it. i just walk in my neighbor hood. beau has his special little walk. but i want to start me walking out in it of evening to. as i would get more of a work out. ha ha he has learn to be a walker now and not a puller.ha ha so is a nice walk. ha i have my ex bike to and a abb thing and cardio glider. so tapes to. need to get with it all. your doing so good. i sure miss aleka hope shes back soon. well glad your day is going good. LaDean

I do like the idea of eating locally grown food, I want to support these guys so they'll keep up the good work.

I am really happy with my new exercise plan and think it is really making a big difference for me.

Will be headed to N.M. a week from tomorrow and have so much to do this coming week to get ready.

Morning, you always have such interesting trips and all. fun to i know. sounds like it. glad for you. yes we love fresh garden foods to.. wish someone was here like that to get from. but all gone for another year. ha ha yes your ex plan is doing its thing. you go girl. its great for you. i feel better doing mine more. oh scales up some this morning. the candy. so its up and away. no more. the stew to. it sometimes makes me gain. so today back to my vegies and fruit... have a good one...LaDean

Hi LaDean, I have had some really nice trips this year. This, I am afraid, is the last for a while as soon I'll be going back to work and do some serious paying off the credit card bill before entertaining more thoughts of travel. No regrets at the debt, but must realize the season for traveling is just about over for me for now.

DD and I are going shopping today. Ooops, more money required. But I am looking forward to it. DD moved out about a week ago, not far, just to my mothers. It has really been good for all of us I think. I know I sure enjoy her company more when I am not living with her and suspect she feels the same. We are at that tricky part of letting go of the child/adult relationship.

Well, see you later. Have a good weekend everyone.

Hi,well you have had alot of fun with your trips. is good to get things paid and all then go for it again. ha ha good time of year to do that then when weather is nice you will be ready to go again. ha ha i love to go. do not go all that much. but going to check into some trips the seniors take. and may go on some of them this fall. there fun. i have a friend who goes a nd we have a ball. glad things are working out for you and your daughter. it helps to be away for while at times. my day is going good. you have a good one. LaDean

aleka aleka. oh my where are you girl.... come back soon miss you..

Morning LaDean, Alice? I am feeling really good about the last couple months. I am starting to have fun going through my closet trying on things that I haven't worn in a while. I love getting to that point. I am finally wearing my 501 Levis that I bought a couple of years ago as goal pants. Feels great to wear them.

Hope all is going well with you guys.

Ledom.... YEHHHHHHH CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU.... oh i know how you feel. i did the same way... at moments i could not tell that i had loss. but then i got pictures out to and oh my i could see it. what a great feeling to get into your jeans. great..... i know its fun to do that. now all my things are big and oh a great feeling as i still wear alot of my dresses to church, all tie backs so is fun to tighten that belt on them. love it. and have them not fit tight. ha ha oh aren;t we doing good. its fun to have a good friend like you and alice to work with this. and i am on several boards to. i love coming to them and sharing. that helps me alot.

Hey LaDean, you'll have to buy Beau some little booties. Have you seen those for pets? We haven't even had a frost yet. It has been in the 80's this week, just too warm for this time of year! And still no rain. I know it is going to be cold in N. New Mexico - I am even hoping that I'll get to see some snow while I am out there.

Have a good day. Time for my workout.

Ledom. no have not seen them. will have to mention them to daughter. shes the shopper in family. haha cute idea yes. as we slept in this am or layed back down till it warmed up. sun is out now. but another frosty am. not as bad as one yesterday..

Oh boy, I hear you on the leaves. Mine are just going to have to wait. My neighbor started her leaf blower at 6 a.m. this morning. I'd like to go throttle her. I am seeing that my yard is the worst in the neighborhood and now I am leaving for a week and a half. I am sure they'll still be here when I get back ;-).

LaDean I have lost 2 more lbs. this week. This makes the 3rd consecutive week for a 2 lb. loss. I am just beside myself over it. It really helps my resolve to be good while I am traveling. Wish me luck on maintaining while I am gone.

Today I'll be involved in last minute preparations for an early start tomorrow. Take care and I'll talk to you later. I will have my laptop with me so will probably be checking in from the road.

LaDean

Hi LaDean & Ledom! Remember me JUDI (I had to sign on as Esteban because I forgot what email address I used before and so couldn't get my password)

Well, you girls are inspiring...shows what one can do when you stick to it! Ledom you are in your :carrot: skinny jeans! That is so wonderful and amazing. You too, LaDean you are so faithful.

The last time I posted I was on Atkins...I lost 10 pounds but you know the old story...gained it back and the only thing I accomplished (which is a VERY doubtful accomplishment) was to began eating meat again. So now I am STARTING AGAIN for the zillionth time...I am over at MyFoodDiary.Com. I have been on a diet for one week. I lost 1 1/2 this week...which is pretty good considering I had some major slips. I am doing this not even to look good anymore...I don't even care about that...I would just like to walk without having to make a major plan of attack of how I am going to go here and there. I am NOT even going to look at the long term...it is too long. Reading what you girls have accomplished is a MAJOR encouragement.

Where is Alice? I was glad to hear she wasn't hit by the hurricane...I was thinking about her.

My D. got married this year. It was very small and in our living room overlooking our garden. It was quite casual (with my husband and grandson talking thru out the ceremony). Let's see what else is new...we PAID off all our debts...that was happy day let me tell ya!!! I see now I can live more happily on a lot less.

We have our dog Marley (the Lhasa, he's 14) and two cats Ginzoni (Esteban) & Nala. Nala is a Himilayan (sp.) that was a rescue cat.

I sarted doing some photography again. I made calendars for gifts for Christmas this year.

That is all my news except I am DETERMINED to plug away at losing weight this year....

Love Judi

Hi Judi, what a surprise so happy to see you back on here. you have been missed so much. wondered. but so many come and go never know. is sad. ha but glad all is going good for you and your back. hey i have kept this off for a year this decemeber. but have not loss anymore really. went to dr. i am debetic now with the high trig's so its got to go more wt she says. so trying again. i think of getting back on atkins like i did yesterday. but then blow it. so figure hey jsut watch my portions and go for that. i do not want to be skinny either. i just want to get this health taken care of and it not get worse. i do not care my looks either. i have clothes i like do not want to go into the expense now of getting more. ha ha so may jsut get down 10 more lbs and call it quits.. ha ha so tired of just messing around with this. ha ha Oh so happy your pets are all fine . i got my beau and we just got in from walk. so foggy and cold. the fog is low. so cold on his paws so we took a short one. he has the cutest jacket so stays warm there. I do not know where alice is.. she has not been in for while.. hope she comes back. ledom is on a trip.. i envy her she does so many fun things. well hey have a great day. we will do this losing together we can do it. just go slow that is the way i look at it. if we are trying its good. LaDean

Friday morning
 

:hug: LaDean sorry to hear about the diabetes! Do you have to take shots?
I know what you mean about being tired off messing around with dieting but at least you have success at it. I am determined to lose the weight for my health's sake. I just PTL that I am in as good health as I am because I have not ever really exercised and never lost the weight AND kept it off. But I am trying now. My D. has about 5 pounds to lose so we encourage one another. She is doing WW.

Clothes wise...I don't think I have ever bought fewer clothes in my entire life than this last past year...I think I only bought one pants and one top...maybe I have bought less clothes when I was 10 years old and younger but this has been my leanest year 'clothes shopping'. It has been OK too because I have tons and even managed a closet sweep of clothes I won't wear again. I way over bought in the past.

Tonight we are going to a book signing and a little celebration of a friend's publication. I am having my main meal of the day mid afternoon so I won't be hungry... I don't want to be hanging around the appetizer table.

Is Beau your Boston? The one you had when I was posting a few months back??

Ledom do you still have your cats? I hope you are having a nice trip.

Hi, oh yes beau is my boston. so loveable. God sent him my way for sure. hes so good. Yes i have hung in there and kept my wt off. no not on shots or medication. she jsut wants me to be good so i do not have to go on either.. my trig's are so high so that is a concern to. with the debetic caused it to stay high. so i want to lose some more wt. playing with it as how much. as for wrinkles and flab hanging. ha ha so i will jsut lose it slow.. well hey glad to have you back on and is nice your d is watching it to. mine is to.. is fun to have someone to work with it and all. these boards help me so much and all my friends... have a good saturday.. LaDean

Hi LaDean! How is your Sunday going?

We are having a real break in the weather here...lots of sun (usually we get around 150 diff. types of rain) so hubby and I went on a slow hike. It was so nice...it made me wonder why I don't make the effort more often.

Have a good one!
-Judi

hi, sunday is going great. went to sunday school and church. first of all i got up and walked beau. had a nice cool one. was not frosty so that was good. so foggy though. real bad. but had cleared off some this am.. i felt so good about me. our t.g. dinner was at church today and i came on home. i just thought so many tempations and then i have to work to hard getting it all off. so came home and ate right. ha ha glad your day is going good LaDean

Monday
 

I love church dinners, especially pot lucks, everyone brings what they want and the dinners are always amazing.

I had an upsetting day, I had to fire my house cleaner of 5 years. She had been coasting on our friendship doing the work more and more sloppy. I pay her $20 an hour too and its not like I can easily afford it anymore since DH is retired, it used to be ok but I kept her on her on because she needed the job. Anyway I have to try and save the day by not eating off...so far I haven't.

Oh so sorry to hear that. I know you will do good and not eat.. yes know what you mean about retirement a person has to be careful. and where she was not doing the job you did the right thing i think. but know it was hard for you... I just rode exercise bike 3 miles. and when beau gets u p will have a walk. my scales are up. i do not want to go back to atkins but seems i cannot get to losing. so may just go for this goal and say thats it. seems to be where i am staying. ha ha Yes our church dinners are like that to. is why i never went. ha ha have a good day now. be good. LaDean

Tues.
 

Three miles on your bike :carrot: wow! good for you? Do you have the type of bike that you can set the pedal tension on? How hard do you make it. I have a bike but if it isn't set on the easiest tension I find that it hurts my knees like crazy to pedal. I am mostly sticking to my treadmill.

I did ok calorie wise...I just didn't drink all my water. I have to get started early in the day on the water.

Yeah, it was disappointing with my friend doing my cleaning, mostly it turned out to be she just wanted her money and to talk to me and do the least amout of work and I was starting to feel just used. Mostly I feel bad about the friendship but I can't afford a friend if it is going to cost me $20/hr. I will get over it...I just have to make myself not think about it too much. :(

It is nice that Beau goes for a walk. Marley is getting kind of old now and can't walk too far (just like me). He also can't jump up on my bed anymore. He tried once and fell off and it wrecked his confidence and he just sits and whimpers until I pick him up. Poor old thing, he is so sweet and is such a wonderful dog.

Have a good rest of the day.

Hey ladies - I'm home. Judi, it is so good to see you back!!! I missed you! Alice, I am getting worried about you! I hope you'll hop on just to say hi at least~

So I am home from my traveling and feel a little let down as now it is time to get in gear to go back to work. I had such a good time on this trip. I love the southwest this time of year. The workshop I took was the best one I was involved in. I met some nice people and just had a great time in general.

Anyway, back to the routine. I really missed my workouts and my usual food. I was able to hold eating together for the most part though I don't think I'll weigh for a few days. Gotta get Thanksgiving out of the way - oh how I wish it didn't have to be such a big deal. I am cooking and plan to make it as low key and low cal as possible, but it is never easy to make it that way.

judi, that is great that you paid off your debts. That is my project now. There aren't many places that I can cut back it seems, but I am excessive when it comes to buying books and magazines and diet coke so I guess I'll start there. Got to pay off my travels of the last few months.

Hang in there LaDean. Your exercise sounds great and that goes a long way to meeting your goals.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Hi, HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU. so glad your trip was so good and fun. that always helps.. its so neat you have all these workshops you attend and able to attend them that is so neat. You will get back with your plan yes. you always do good doing that. i am hanging in there . yes i try so that is all i can do. what is meant to be is the way i figure it. just have quit fretting so over it and taking it as it is.. ha I am fixing dinner but yes its hard. i just try and fill up on turkey mostly. course when i cook i am not hungry for it when ready. usually later i eat more of mine and all.

Yes judi my bike i can fix the tension and i keep it on medium.. so not to bad peddling. i feel a good work out on it. that is all i got yesterday is the 3 miles. like to go 5 miles of day on it.. Oh my tuffy was like that for last 2 years loss his site and would not get up on things anymore. beau is 8 and i got him on a diet. ha ha hes more frisky and all to. cut down on his food is all. he had gained since we got him.ha ha so figured hey he can do it with me. ha ha yes its sad when they get where they cannot do what they use to and all. yes its not any use paying someone to do that if there not doing it. gee think of what you can do with the money. ha ha

Aleka, where o where are you. my hope you have a good thanksgiving to. hope all is ok your way and your back with us soon..

HAPPY THANKSGIVING... LaDean
