The lunar eclipse, is that what happened to me last night? Self destructive behavior reared it's ugly head last night. I am very disappointed in myself. I will weigh in again on August 1.
Nothing for last night
This Morning: Oxycise
Have a Blessed day!

2 Timothy 2:6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
Wendy thought she was dieting for her husband and family. She kept telling herself she was doing it for them, anyway. As the pounds melted away, however, Wendy realized something very important. No matter who she said she was doing it for, she came out the big winner. She looked better, she felt better, and she loved every minute of it. She knew she was doing something really right. She put forth a lot of sweat and tears, and she was reaping the big benefits. Not only was she dieting for her family, but she was doing it for herself, and that was a good thing. She was worth it.
Today's thought: My diet is a really great decision on my part!
Have to get out in the garden and stake some things up, now that it's not raining for a little bit. stuff, including weeds, is growing like made, have to clip some leaves so there's air flow, so it doesn't stay damp in here. It's a labor of love, though.
Diana we love the national parks, and plan on heading out west, we're starting to explore some of the NY and PA state parks as well, lots to do for not a lot of moolah. It's exciting and scary at the same time, so many years of working...I think I started working over 40 years ago
Well, I'll catch up and get back on later, better get out there. bugs are probably awake, so I'll put on my head net and arm protectors...sounds like great fun, doesn't it. I do love it
nancylmrn, so sorry about the gain. just got back from power walking and running an errand. will be leaving to go for another power walk and run another errand in a few minutes.
The moon is messing with my ovaries...I might have a double ovulation cycle...I did gain again 193.4 this time
Diana so sorry about the blip. Hugs. His mercies are new every morning.
ciecie, you Go girl
Nancy, sorry for the bump up. You are doing everything right hang in there.
so I ran out of xylitol and was out perusing Walmart at midnight for a gift for my friends grand daughter and I came across another version of Stevia...
I became very inspired with this mornings coffee and wrote a poem if you care to read
You Ruined My Coffee
I do not like stevia
They may call it organic and sweet
But I hate the bitter taste it leaves ya.
You can but it in a box
I'd rather pour it out on the rocks
They even put it in a little bottle
Which I have to say makes my gag reflex go full throttle
No I do not like stevia
I do not like it in a box
I wouldn't give it to a fox
It reminds me of a cup of coffee flavored by dirty socks
I wouldn't have bought the stuff at all if I hadn't
Run out of my favorite xylitol
Instead I bought some stuff that was an attempt to misspell pure
Now my mind is made up for sure
I don't like stevia
Diana thank you. I'm glad you are back on track. Let me know how you like xylitol
awee, Nov, hugs. I know it stinks. You will get through it.
Nancy, you are doing amazing things...keep going.
Ciecie, you are a train!!!
frustrated and Carla hi.
so birthday party was ok. I ate too much food according to my app. 1677 calories...my stomach is growling right now...
not sure if I will go to breakfast in AM...need to be prepared with my xylitol and cream for coffee. They always have low carb fare...it's just that I don't normally eat that early...
thanks jendiet! power walked to church and to supper after church. power walked home after supper. will be shutting down in a few minutes to go to bed.
Novangel, wow, I am really impressed that you are doing 30 day shred and it is actually getting easier! Congratulations!
Looks like yesterday was a really busy day for everyone, same for me. I was up at 6a, did a bunch of stuff around the house and was out the door at 10a. I ran a bunch of errands and then went to do my volunteer work.
I did some food shopping on the way home and didn’t get home until 6p. Unfortunately I was so tired when I got home I wasn’t up to making anything healthy to eat & I ended up eating two pieces of toast for dinner. 😔
But I did eat well the rest of the day so I guess it won’t be too bad.
Otherwise it was a good day, although somewhat stressful- I’m preparing to move out into my own apartment in 6-8 weeks and it will be my first time in my life, other than when my husband first passed away for a couple of months and it didn’t go well then. But it’s been two years and I am emotionally ready now, but it is still a bit stressful; plus I have a TON of things to do!
Well, wish me luck over the next several weeks and have a great day ladies 😊
Frustrated2 Wishing you the best with the move. I pray it can end up being an exciting time for you and no dread.
Nothing for last night <-- Two days without stretching, need to get back to it
This Morning: Oxycise
Calories for yesterday: 1490 +
No Weigh In
Have a Blessed day
Today's devotion is painful to read, but there is truth in it.

Ephesians 4:1 I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.
Rodney let himself go completely. His friends were uncomfortable when he was around. He ate constantly, and he seemed to grow larger by the day. No one knew how to talk to him about it, so they let it slide. Finally, Barb took him aside and asked him why he was destroying himself. She told him that people were losing their respect for him and couldn't understand it. In anger, Rodney told Barb it was none of her business and stormed off. As Christians, it is other people's business when we follow paths that are not worthy of Jesus Christ. He has called us to be living examples of Himself. To be less than that is a sin. Let us try to live life in a body fit for Christ.
Today's thought: Do people see Christ when they look at me?
