Come one --- COME ALL!!! Pretty please share!! Your ideas today may be mine or someone else tomorrow's meal ... it is all good .. while trying to Eat Good in the Neighborhood (this was a thread that used to be posted by Charlie when I first came on OH it really helped me a lot)... and from Kathy ... are we moving to lose/maintain today?

I for one am holding my feet to the fire (thanks MSW) no mercy ... no excuses ... Care to share your meal plan today? ... do you have any exercise plans/physical activity planned for today? (exercise does not only involve gym ...tons of awesome exercise and fun physical activities can be done outside the gym ... I personally love outdoors and nature best ... walking up and down the stairs... walking briskly in the mall or outdoors... parking the car as far as possible in the lot and getting to the revolving doors at the stores and pretending you forgot your pocketbook or something in the car and walking all the way back to the car and back to the store again ... AWESOME exercise .... how about sitting on the couch and standing and sitting and standing and sitting and standing AWESOME squats .. walk in place... run in place ... and before you know it we are moving to lose/maintain/improve our moods/be healthy etc. etc. etc...

Ugh!  I am not eating good in the neighborhood.  I am recovering from a stomach virus.  I am not feeling well.  Just sipping fluids to combat the dehydration I am experiencing.  Legs starting to cramp less so hopefully things are looking up.  I may eat some dry toast later.  LOL.  Sounds good, doesn't it?  LOL. 

Makes me mad I feel bad because I have started going to Zumba classes and love it.  I will miss class today because I just have no energy.  I feel like a limp dish rag.  Just resting and drinking today and hoping to feel better tomorrow.

Rest up and hydrate my beautiful sista ... sorry you are under the weather ... stomach viruses suck with a normal stomach I can just imagine what it does to us .... ((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))) ... Feel better soon!!!! 

Thank you, my beautiful friend!  I am feeling some better.  I got enough Vitamin Water Zero in that my legs are feeling better.  Viruses do suck especially when you have altered insides.  I have found that since my gastric bypass I don't get viruses as often or as easy, but when I do, it is no fun at all.  They lasts longer for whatever reason.  Maybe it is because I really can't throw up like normal to get it on out of my body. 

Just got in the house a few minutes ago.... hope you are feeling much better and those legs are feeling stronger... 

It is wet and rainy and coolllllllllllldddddddddddd up here ... but it was awesome getting home there is a nice fire going in the chimney the furry kritters are sound asleep downstairs ... the aroma coming from the kitchen is just awesome ... Al is making my favorite Stuffed Tilapia with crabmeat/shrimp and scallops hmmmmmmmmmmmmm love it!

So my potluck dinner tonight:
Stuffed Tilapia with crabmeat/shrimp/scallops ..steam spinach with a bit of butter and garlic to die for...  
Staying in and relaxing for the rest of the night ... I am weaving at my shop Saturday morning so I may fart around with some extensions later or maybe not ... really in a lazy mood ....

Feel better!!!!!

Good Morning!

Just waking and sipping on my coffee to get the day started. My biggest plan for the day was to get my hair cut/trimmed- My lady just called and is home with the flu :(.

Todays plan of action for food is:

B- Cottage cheese and pepperoni crisps.
L- green beans and turkey mixed
D- Chicken Divan

Snacks- raw veggies and ranch, nuts

Nothing to exciting. Would love to fit in a bunch of fluids around that,however liquids are not going down very smooth yet today (that is usually not a good sign)

Happy Friday everyone
Kelly/tink

I am glad you are feeling better and can eat today ...  stomach bugs suck big time... It's too bad you can't get your hair cut or trimmed today as planned but at least she stayed home with the flu and called you and did not come in and try to wing it while sick ...

I am loving your spread.  I am all set for today with an awesome entry a sista made on my Wednesday's thread ... I am just going to tweak it a bit with what I had in my cupboard...

Breakfast
Oatmeal, with a scoop of vanilla whey protein and added some raisins and stevia
Snack
Apple slices with PB2
Lunch
Turkey/Provolone/roasted red pepper roll
Dinner
Grilled stuffed tilapia left over from last night with steamed garlic spinach
