    Hello!

    Busy days as I made it through my weekend at the restaurant and countdown trip to Alaska. This morning sis and I drove to Colorado fruit country, 45 miles from the Utah h border. I brought home 3 cases of organic peaches. Yum. We stopped at the Glenwood house and I picked up a few things I want to take with me, we did Costco, Joann fabric and Target. We Took turns driving and both ordered some stuff online. I am having some stuff shipped to Alaska. Now home and will go get o bed early. Tomorrow I will stat processing peaches. Most will be dehydrated but I bought an entire case for gifting to friends and neighbors in Alaska.

    Fod-ok-nothing exciting to report. Believe I have undereaten so far today. Will rest a bit then have dinner.

    i will be better about posting now I am to days off. For now good night.

    Good morning!

    I had a good rest last night and we are up ready to start processing our peaches. I will make smoothie after we get the first load in the dehydrator. I’m planning for an on plan day today. Have a great day everyone!

    Good morning chicks!

    Sorry I've been missing the last couple of days; we made an impromptu trip to see my parents. With school starting again and the days get shorter (aka winter ) I wasn't sure when we would see them again.

    Food was mixed but we all know that's how it is when one travels. Some salads but desserts too plus there's the "I don't know" factor in so many restaurant meals!

    Anyway, here's to an OP day for all of us!

    Good evening,

    Went into the office for another meeting that was thrown on my calendar this morning. Just got done configuring DD2 class ring they are ordering on Friday, crazy I still see her as a toddler in my mind which is why I have been procrastinating at letting her start to drive. Nothing on the agenda this evening.

    Debbie Peaches oh my that sounds good, I haven't had a peach in ages. Have fun getting ready for your trip

    Beth that was a good idea to go see your parents, I will see mine in a couple of weeks in Atlanta when we go for my nieces wedding.

    Have a great evening everyone!

    Good morning!

    It's nice to read all your updates.
    Lexxiss, peaches are a big deal here with sides, GA or SC...lol. Our area leans SC.
    Beth, glad you had a chance to enjoy a family trip.
    Pearlrose, oh, the emotional milestones as our kids grow up. It's easier with the grands, our youngest is 2 today.

    I'm back to ph1.5 this week. The hungries started creeping back Mon. I hope sticking w ph1 for breakfast, lunch & snacks will help & get the scale moving. Yesterday was fairly easy. If that doesn't work, I'll be back to full ph1 next week after the weekend away.

    We're back to summer days here, not complaining.
    Have great days, chicks!
    ✌

    Good morning chicks.

    Cenari, I'm also up a bit after the weekend so Iam trying to drink lots of water and be thoughtful about food choices too. I find 2-3 days of staying OP tends to undo the damage. My weight chart looks like the stock market graph; up and down but this month the general trend is in the correct direction. Not sure if it is good or bad that this is the same 5 pounds I had to lose after the Christmas holidays.

    I'm off to get an oil change and then go work in my classroom this morning. Tomorrow is the official start date for teachers.

    Rose, it must feel quite emotional to have your youngest hitting these milestones.

    Debbie, have a productive day!

    Got to fly!

    Good morning,

    Busy day at work, taking a quick break to check in. Nothing on the agenda this evening. Staying op so happy about that, have avoided sugar for 4 days so far.

    Cenari, I am trending down since Sunday, just a tiny bit each day but have been drinking lots of water and avoiding any sugar.

    Beth I think your weight chart and mine would look the same, I have been dealing with the same for me 10 lbs since Christmas as well, up and down.

    Debbie have a great day.

    Have a good afternoon

    Good evening (almost),

    Long day at work, almost Friday and last day of the month...where did the time go. Still eating op, scale has stopped but that is okay it will go down again if I stay the course. DD2 has practice this evening nothing else on the agenda.

    Have a great evening

    Good morning, Chicks!
    Where has this week gone? Again, I'm not busy & haven't done much since Mon it seems. I will be on the road again tomorrow for DGD's bday festivities. Should be fun & I'm not worried about the cake this time.
    Hunger & cravings are back under control after a few days of ph1.5, thankfully! I'm cautiously happy how easy it was. I know I say this a lot, but, 'in the past' that little blip would have been the start of my slippery slope to 'why bother?'. Not this time!

    Pearlrose & Beth, you are so right about paying attention to weight trends & I needed that reminder. That's awesome you're getting results! I can't wait to someday have that last 5-10 to battle. I also know it's no easier than the first lbs to lose.

    Have a great Fri & weekend! My check-ins will be spotty, but I pop in to read most days.
    ✌

    Good morning!

    Looks like I haven’t been here for a few days. Sorry. I do always read.

    Ceneri, Safe travels and have fun! Yes, the longer you do this the easier it gets. Glad you are finding that out already.

    Rose, Great job avoiding sugar! Yes, August is in the books now. I hope your Friday is smooth sailing right into the weekend. And the long one at that.

    Beth, glad you got to get away last week. Don’t know if I ever said that. Are you still harvesting from your garden? Me, down to my last day. I still have lots to do but I am pretty organized on the other hand. I took a long nap yesterday afternoon then had to go down to Denver again. Made a late afternoon pick me up a smoothie and got a second wind. Came home and did a little re-organizing in the travel vehicle so I know where we stand. All that’s left there is for me to pack some clothes into my suitcase and it already has its designated spot. I put an empty box in so I wouldn’t forget the peaches I’m taking. It will be crazy when I get off work Sunday just throwing some stuff in the car and hitting the road.

    I have to go to Denver one more time today to pick up our spare validator for our quarter machine. I ordered some stuff from target to ship to Alaska but it wouldn’t ship my sheets for the futon so I will pick them up while I am down there, as well. We still have some things to do at the house. Process the last batch of Kirk’s peaches, full laundry and pick up stuff again. It’s also the first of the month and I hope all the tenants bring their checks so I can stick them into the deposit on my way out on Sunday.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Good evening, chicks!

    I've been MIA the last couple of days. We had 2 days of PD for teachers plus all the normal getting ready stuff to do. I still need to do some computer work this weekend before the kids arrive on Tuesday. Food is mixed but I am ending the month down from Aug 1st... shooting for losing a couple pounds in September.

    Debbie, I still have loads of tomatoes ready to pick. I guess I should can some this weekend. I think I will pull out the zucchini plants; I haven't decided about the cucumbers. It sound like you are ready for your trip but you are always organized..

    Cenari, hope you have a great trip!

    Rose, DH is watching football tonight which made me wonder if you are at a game. I heard you a a big fan of the marching band. lol

    See you all tomorrow for the new month!
