Good morning. I'm off to check out a new gym this morning. I'm hoping it will be cheaper than my current one. I don't go often enough to make it worth the higher cost right now. The rest of the day will probably just be projects around the house.

Hey Barb, nice to see you back. How have you been? Hope all is well and hope you have brought us the good warmer weather.

Nothing much planned today. Think I'm getting another cold and my body feels all weak and cold. Can't get sick now, not during summer break. I will do some errands then go to the gym tonight, hopefully i don't get sicker. I've been getting heartburn for weeks now and living of gravol, and tea.

Have a nice day all, Nia. 

Hi Nia

why not give yourself a chance to rest if you are getting sick?  You've been going at a fast pace all year.  Just a thought. 

Thanks Barb. I went back to bed after typing that and it now noon and i just woke up. I know right, i need to take it easy a fully get over this cold. Easier said than done these days as i i want to move, move, move. I'll rest more no doubt, i think my body needs it.

Omg aren't naps amazing?  You taking vitamin c and d?

I usually don't take naps and i woke up even more tired than when i went to bed. Yes I'm taking my vitamins, but i think this cold just kicked my butt or i picked up another one from somewhere, sigh. I hate feeling this way and I'm not one to rest. I'll take it easy this week, maybe i just need retail therapy, mmm!!

Good morning. Glad to see you back. Sorry things have been rough. Quiet day today. Just work and home. Hope to swim at lunch.

I need to put in some extra time at work. I just found out yesterday that my daughter's dental surgery is tomorrow. I have been asking her for weeks to send me the date!. She has a front tooth that can not be saved. It has had thousands spent on it when I was paying her dental. But she is a trumpet player and it was just never strong enough. She hasn't been able to play trumpet for a few years. So tomorrow what is left of the tooth will come out. They think it might be broken under the crown but will not know how bad until they get in. Then they hope to put a post in for the beginning of an implant. she then has to wait 6 months for it to heal. She will have a tooth they call a flipper in the mean time. She has been saving for this surgery for a long time. We had offered to help but she wanted to do it herself. We do pay for her car insurance and that money was to go to help her. I am proud of her that she wants to be independent.

Ugh I am at work and just realised I forgot to defrost something for dinner.

b greek yogurt, strawberry/rhubarb with sf sweetener

l chicken salad, celery, oikos yogurt (worth the extra calories)

s turkey pepperette, salad

d chilli or fish, salad

s laughing cow crackers

Have a good day everyone

Good on your daughter that she wants to be independent, you should be proud. Hope her surgery goes well.

Good morning every one!  3 weeks post op today and down another 3.4 lbs this week.  I'm almost in the 220s! 

I'll be making a big pot of chili today and just wondered if anyone knows of a nutrition calculator for recipes that tells you the details in a specific serving size opposed to asking how many servings it makes?  I don't know how many servings are in a pot of chili!  It depends on who is eating it!  If I can't find one I guess I'll have to measure out how many 1 cup servings are in my pot.

Will post daily menu later, haven't had time to figure it out yet.  The joys of being off work!

B - 65 gr of leftover steak....my jaw is tired!
