Hey MontanaAshli,
Welcome.
Sometimes "enough is enough" is all it takes, right?
Come back and let us know how you are. Lots of great people here.

:wave: Hi MontanaAshli welcome to the thread and I hope you stay and join in. I'm presuming from your name that you either live in Montana now or have in the past?

Each and everyone of us on this thread have our own personal demons to face and defeat, but as you know a trouble shared is a trouble halved. Equally sharing the joys and successes in life proves the other half of that saying, a joy shared is a joy doubled.

So have a :hug: and once again welcome.

As the rest of you can tell I'm over the migraine.:carrot:

Nicki

I get that alot. But actually, my first name is Montana and middle is Ashli! Haha! ;)

Thank you all for being so welcoming! And your right, enough is enough! Im ready! And I'm feeling much better than earlier, thankfully. :cool:

MontanaAshli,
Glad you're feeling better. Did you find any interesting forums or groups here? We are all new in "enough is enough".

I seem to hang out in the Challenge area a lot. Check out the Just for Today challenge. It's a great group. As they all are.

btw, I am an Ashley too.

It's a lovely summers day here, sunny with a nice breeze and a few white fluffy clouds in the sky.
Yesterday came and went and with it my migraine, so I'm now fighting fit and starting up again with my own personal eating plan. Yes I've decided to mentally (plan to give them to the local charity shop) throw out all my diet books, must have at least 20. Working on a strategy that will work for me, my lifestyle, my body, and not forgetting it's got to fit in with those around me. Can't afford to have two separate food bills each week.

Got to dash taking Zoe to summer scheme Colin DH is giving us a lift before he goes to work.

I've just bought a bike:bike2: and I don't know how to ride one, never learnt even as a child. Wish me luck I think I'm going to need it. Why did I buy the bike? Impulsive purchase mixed with a desire to get fit. Why on earth today though I've no idea, my left hip is hurting, left knee keeps giving way and I'm having problems even attempting to sit on the thing in my kitchen.

I must be mad!:rofl:

Nicki

Nicki,
you are amazing. First off- so glad the migraine is gone. Great idea to get rid of the diet books!! I don't know if I can do that.

The bike! Woohoo!!!!!!! You go, girl! I
think it's great. Do you have lovely places to ride? Can you go the shop with it?

Oops gotta go get the dd up for camp.

Have a great day chickies.

I've a long way to go! Because I'm so stiff I can't even get my right leg over the bit in the middle (no idea what it's called on a ladies bike). So actually even attempting to ride the bike will have to wait until I find some suitable hip flexing exercises, do them of course and get some movement back. Not daunted though but it is a set back.

Nicki

Let's not think of it as a set back. Let's imagine that you've purchased a lovely dress and are waiting to wear it when you have all your accessories together.:)

I have hip flexor issues - so I know what you mean. And I haven't been on a bike since I tried to teach my child to ride. So I commend you :bravo: and I am cheering you on! :cheer2:

Going to go cook dinner. Veggie frittata for the dh and the dd. I am having salad with canned tuna fish.

Ash

I'm having a chill day today, no planning , just getting on with life as it happens. About to cook lunch. See you all later.

Nicki

Nicki, Enjoy your chill day. :D

I enjoyed my chill day, and now it's back to business. Had to stay strong earlier today as we went to the cinema, got away with a small salted popcorn and a bottle of water, then we headed off to Macdonalds, DH wanted to go to KFC but DD wanted a 'happy meal' so we went to the yellow M. I too had a happy meal consisting of mcnuggets, carrot sticks, a fruitbag and a bottle of milk. Do I get a halo for being as good as it's possible to be going on a family trip to the movies and then a fast food restaurant?:D:dizzy:

Nicki

Just to let you all know, I won't be around tomorrow so I'll catch up with you on Tuesday.

Nicki

Great job! :angel:
catch you tuesday!

I'm back! After a day of getting those jobs done around the house we all put off unless that is you're a domestic goddess. Well as my DH would say I didn't marry you for your ability to keep house, if I wanted that I would hire a housekeeper! Strange thing is he obviously didn't marry me for my cooking skills either. ;)
