Happy Sunday! The scale and I are not speaking and it is my own fault, lol! I said to my husband before we had the canned soup with supper that it was a salt bomb and it was! And the handful of pretzels later did not help the situation. I need to stop buying this stuff and then I can't eat it. I know I need more fresh vegetables and fruits, so why don't I do it? Today is a new day and I will do better (I hope).
The weather is supposed to be lovely. A lot of sun, a little clouds and in the mid 60's. I need to get outside somewhere today and enjoy it. The leaves are just starting to turn here. A little later than usual and the season for enjoying them is always too short. Plus the walking is good for me.
Muffin, how did the tour of UCF go? I hope your foot held out and it wasn't too painful. What I remember from our college touring days was that both of my kids seemed to know pretty quickly from the tour whether a school was a go or not. And I also remember the walking! Nothing like being led by a healthy 18-22 year-old. It felt more like this:
My son did a couple of years of giving those tours at his school and one of the requirements was to be able to walk backwards, look at your tour group and talk as you toured. He got really good at it!
Lisa, your meatloaf recipe looks good, too! Good for you for being on track the last few days! I think shed building counts as exercise for sure. I hope it turned out well. I know my hubby would like a shed but we are in a condo now and don't need one really. But if we had one, I am sure he would find stuff to fill it with!
Amma Heather, I hope things are going well for you. It sounded like you were off to a great start! I need to follow your example. More and more I am thinking that I need a strict phase 1 to get back on track and get rid of the cravings. Also, a good phase 1 clean out of my kitchen and pantry would be a good idea.
Next week we are dog sitting the grand-dog for a week. She is a 50+ pound Australian Red Heeler mix and needs to have a good long walk at least twice a day. That should help get the weight loss moving in the right direction, if I cut out the junk!
Have a great Sunday everyone and post when you can! If you are new, feel free to jump in and say hello. We'd love to have you join us! 🎃
