Yes we are a chatty group!
CoolMom I hope your work stretch is going easy on you.
Syckgirlsfv Those chicken breasts sound so good, cals are low, too.
I enjoyed reading your post about your mother's bird-friendly garden--how cool is that!!! Btw, Vegas has some good desert birds. Even the parking lot birds are different. It must feel so good to keep realizing you have no assignments hanging over you for now.
Diana Oh I loved your words about the wedding. Wouldn't it be great if it were socially acceptable to have a box to check on the RSVP with "here is gift in lieu of attendance"? Re DH and throwing things,
Sounds like what you are doing works. And there are threads full of 3FCers that can attest to your being a nice person
Btw, I tried the cauli pizza you once mentioned. It did not get great reviews, people complained the crust was soggy. But I thought it was great. It's a cauli crust and it isn't chewy like pizza, it's soft like mashed cauli. It tasted great, I even felt the pizza-guilt until I remembered I did not eat an actual carby pizza. Thanks for that lead!
Magistra WTG on the getting in the walking!
Terry23 Congrats sticking to plan and getting in the exercise
And D-Day--must feel wonderful to get your life back! Is it a permanent break from call?
Beloved Warrior Did you get your thyroid tests?
I'm glad it's Friday! Yesterday I ate ok but started grazing in the evening. If I had cooked up the cabbage I bought, it would have been ok, but as it was I grazed on higher calories things like turkey chili and coconut oil. So today I will try a little harder to rein in the snacking.
In other news, I had my first session with a special kind of massage therapy called neuro-kinetic programming for my hip. It's a bit strange, but they are so popular here it's hard to get an appointment. One thing i learned is called Brain Buttons. I know this sounds strange & I pooh-poohed it at first, but after doing it, experienced a sense of well-being. You rub your navel area with one hand and with the other, you rub your chest in the area right above the the most prominent rib. And move you eyes from left to right.
Here is a link to a demo:

The spinal alignment PT seems to be helping & I just need to continue the home exercises. The last thing will be pilates. I feel like jello these days & am both dreading and looking forward to toning up the core.
TGIF All!
