Good Morning Svelte Sleeves !
131's today. I continue to trend down as activity increases. I have MFP set at 1350, but didn't quite hit it the last two days. As Linda said, it is really just a piece of cheese. I have two evenings out this week, so I am going to plan some wiggle room those days.
Have a great week !! Today is going to be an afternoon coffee day, for sure !!!

Love the salutation Diane! I like being a Svelte Sleever!
123.4 - above my lower red line but still good. No formal exercise again yesterday but more of a dent on the housecleaning. I should get a housekeeper! Lol!
After seeing Devon post about steel cut oats, I made some for myself and am having them as I type. I made a double serving, added 1 apple and a scoop of Chai protein powder - yummy. It will make 3 meals for me! Nice to have something warm in my belly in the morning.
Work today, scouts tonight. Middle son will have long play practices Monday-Wednesday and then the performances of Oliver on Thursday-Saturday. So fun to watch him shine! He is playing Mr. Bumble and has to wear a "fat suit". Middle son is almost 5' 11" and probably weighs mid 130's - super tall and skinny! My other two boys are overweight. Go figure!
Have a wonderful day my friends!

Good Morning! 156.5#.... I'm fluctuating between 155-156 so hopefully I'll make a permanent drop soon!
I made protein balls yesterday as I'm out of Quest Bars. I've made them before and they are pretty good. I've tweaked it and add protein powder, coconut flakes; whatever I have on hand.

We're on Spring Break and I'm loving it...Today, my parents are coming and we're going out for a burger tonight. Saturday, we visited with Andy's parents. I love having our parents close!
I'm going to putter in the office today. I need to file and throw things away! I'm going to take a room or two a day...
Happy Monday!!!
Enjoy break, especially after testing !!!! Thanks for the link. I'm looking forward to Linda's recipe too !
