Good morning menu friends! Miss Lily and I have our first walk in even though we were wet by the end as it started raining halfway through. We'll get more walks in later if it clears off. I have Kit Kats in the camper now and it's all I can do to stay away. I can relate,JB! Accountability was spot on food and stepwise with 11,154 steps done. Weight is 120.2. QOTD one of the malls in St.Louis. Here's the food plan B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L meat and cheese rollup D 4 oz baked chicken. Have a great day and stay safe everyone! Make your best choices!

We use a lot of the spices in a tube as I like the fresh flavor but fresh herbs get old and dry before I use the whole batch.

Good morning menu friends! No post from me yesterday as I wasn't feeling well but back up to par today. I had a dumping episode Sunday evening and didn't get much sleep. Apparently 2 thin slices of honey wheat bread,peanut butter and no sugar added jelly is too much sugar for me. Didn't even eat it all as it was shared with Miss Lily. First walk is done today and accountability was good yesterday. Weight 120.6. Here's the food plan B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L 3/4 c loaded potato soup D 4 oz baked chicken. Have a great day and stay safe everyone!

Good morning menu friends! Miss Lily and I have our first walk done. We're spending the day today at the in laws with both boys and our daughter in law. They drove down from Minneapolis Thursday for the weekend. Have to get hubby up shortly so we can head. They live about and hour and a half from here and Miss Lily will go with us. We'll get some walking in there too. Accountability was spot on yesterday and weight is 120.4. QOTD yes to myself and to Lily. Usually rehashing plans for the day or sometimes to Miss Lily if I'm upset about something. She never judges! Here's the food B 1/2 c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L 4 oz meatloaf D 3/4 c baked potato soup. Have a great day and stay safe everyone! Time for coffee!

I don't do Halo Top because I have zero control when it comes to sweets or fake ones. I would eat it til I was sick. It will never come in my house.

Thanks for starting us out again, Melody! Miss Lily and I will head out here in a minute for our first walk. Since I make her get up by 5:20 on work days,on the weekend we walk when she gets restless. We've got our first walk in now and will do more later if the weather holds. Accountability yesterday was good food wise but I didn't get all my steps in as it was raining all afternoon. At least I made good food choices though. Here's the food plan B 1/2c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L 3/4 c chili with cheese D 4 oz grilled shrimp. Trying to avoid a bedtime snack. QOTD I like my name even with all the "Karen" memes! Gonna post a before and after pic--just because. It's a gloomy day and I feel the urge to snack so I need the reminder. Stay safe everyone and make your best choices.

Thanks for starting us out ,Melody. I checked to see if it was started but lacked the enthusiasm to do it! No exciting plans here,either just laundry and grocery store in a bit. Miss Lily and I have our first walk in and will do more. Accountability was exactly as planned and weight is 120.2. Have to make sure to get my steps. During the work week it's no problem because I am running all over a huge warehouse but weekends I have to be a bit more intentional. QOTD both. Plus when winterize the camper it gets a total clean out. That will happen by the beginning of November probably. Here's the food plan B 1/2c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L not sure as we may pick something up D 4 oz of ribeye steak. I'm also planning for 3/4 c cheesy popcorn before bed (if I'm hungry). Have a safe and healthy day everyone!

Love the new haircut,JB. It looks like a longer version of mine today as I got out my flatirons and straighten mine. Miss Lily and I have our first walk in and will do more later. It was really cold and dark and neither of us were in the mood,but we did it anyway. Accountability was spot on food and stepwise yesterday and weight is 120.4. QOTD nothing comes to mind. Here's the food plan B 1/2c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L 1/2 of a taco salad D other half of lunch. I need to stay away from the snacks. I added some popcorn before bed which was OK calorie wise but I didn't really need it. That's a bad habit of mine. Tonight I'll make a cup of decaf coffee instead. Have a great day and stay safe everyone. Pics are mushrooms,Miss Lily and a cabin in the woods at Pine Creek. Wish I was still there!

Hang in there and fight like a crazy lady. Praying you find just the right lawyer who can help you with your case. I'm just like your mom-'a momma bear when it comes to my kids.

Your weekend sounds so exciting, Liz! And we get to live vicariously through you. My weekend involves 3 loads of laundry, cleaning the camper and giving the dog a bath. No excitement here but I may go to Goodwill today with my son Sam to look for some work tshirts for him. Miss Lily and I have our first long walk in and will do more later. Accountability was spot on food and stepwise yesterday and weight is 120.4. Here's the food plan B 1/2c steel cut oats with protein and peanut butter L 3/4 c chili with cheese D 4 oz pork burger.
