<---- This is me in just a few weeks. LOL Thursday, B. 2 c. coffee, 1/2 c. Fiber One Cereal- tasted soooo good & 1/2 piece wheat toast, butter & orange marmalade
L. Grilled chicken, mushrooms, green beans, roll, & Waldorf salad- a great home cooked meal, courtesy of dear church friends, Barbara & Bill
D. Smae as llunch, it was so, so verly good. Also had a couple of bites of peanut butter pie- enough to satisfy & convinced that was all I needed.
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Doing more & more for myself, including I've learned how to get myself off the couch, to the kitchen & make pot of coffee & even fix my own cereal, even getting cleaned up, washing hair without Mr. Bill's help- I call that progress!!! Also, getting in a little bit of "execise", stretching, upper body arm exercises, trying not to get too out of shape while I recouperate with this creazy broken ankle.
Hope everybody has a beautiful week-end!!

Good Morning 
Don't know what it's like where u r today but you can make your day start out right. Yes, plan it. Flying by the seat of your pants doesn't work well with us. We usually make poor choices. Hope all have their weekend gear packed to fight off temptations. Do the things your program for weight loss requires to keep u on track. If feeling a little vunerable ??? stay away from your food triggers. We all need to remember, protein first, take your vitamins, drink water and vary your workout routine.
This is what I ate yesterday (poor choices but within my calorie range). What did u do?

Happy to say got my calories down yesterday. Hope all are doing well. We are having so much rain it makes u want to just sleep and eat. However we are not giving in to it. We plan our meals, take our vitamins and drink liquids, including water. If today is your exercise day, then push yourself to do it. I am fighting off a cold and decided to skip my workout this morning. Have a great day and be safe if you have to get out in this weather.

Working on DH computer and can't figure out how to cut n paste from fitday, will add it later if my computer recovers.

Getting "back to normal" after the cruise life can be tricky. But Z, you are going in the right direction: Making the effort, journaling your food choices, exercise- all this will get you where you need to & want to be...As for me:B. 1 egg over light, about 2 oz. grits, 1/2 Everyday muffin (at Wild Eggs in Middletown)- we were out & it was great for a change of pace- everyone there very kind to this little granny in pajama pants and walker
L. kind of melted into D. hubby fixed marvelous fruit salad- pear, apple, grapes, orange, then about 2 oz. burgoo & about 5 white corn chips with a little melted cheese.
Snax, fudgesicle, juice. I know it looks on paper that I'm not getting enough to eat, but I'm not getting any real exercise to speak of either. Must get back on vitamin regimen today!! THANKFUL for another day. THANKFUL for WLS that helped my body be better prepared for this life interruption. THANKFUL for OH & this board that helps me with zccountability and the opportunity to express myself. How 'bout you?! What did you eat yesterday? What good things are happening for you? Where do you need a little encouragement? Enjoy the journey!

Z., welcome home! Glad you got to go on a cruise- aren't they great fun?!You mentioned upper body strenghth; kg has become so evident to me in the last 12 days how very, very important that is. Now that you're resolved to get that part of you in better shape, I know you will go forward & do well.
Did my follow-up this morning with ankle surgeon. Things are coming right along. From there, he sent me to a orthodics man off Breckinridge Ln. to be fitted for a shoe with a brace that will aid in my recovery. Now all i have to do is get through 2 weeks before I get shoe brace & see surgeon again.
Yesterday, I had small bowl of Cheerios for breakfast, maybe 3 oz., Lunch was carryout from Mark's Feed Store that my dear hubby picked up on way home from church. Delicious salad, about 2-3 oz. burgoo & 1/2 piece of cornbread. Dinner is a little bit of blur- I think leftovers from lunch and a few white corn chips, melted shredded cheese & a dollop of sour cream. YOM, YUM!!!
Lizuids & Snax: Prune juice (yes, it works), decaf coffee, water, a little gingerale, and Yoplait Whipps, Key Lime Pie flavor.
Everyone has a great week!

Took my vitamins and drank about 32 oz water, 2 cups of coffee w/splenda and creamer. Ate beef n chicken mexican salad w chips and salsa. Cheese sauce too along with 2 slices of avocado. Finished my night off with a piece of fish and 1/2 cup of almonds. I did not log my food but back to journaling today.
Exercise on the ship was good but did not take advantage of it every day. Had one rude awakening, upper body strength has decreased. Ab lounger helps u deceive yourself. Going to work more w/o equipment to strengthen myself. Take care all and have a great day.
