10-13-22 Thursday Weigh-In------. October Candy Month--NO--NO

[Belle]

TRICK OR TREAT

 

We buy candy for the children we adore

In their costumes at the door

 

Don't buy it weeks before and let it call your name

Buy it Halloween Day it's still the same

 

Give out everything-- no leftovers for you to eat

That would give you-""-not a gain-""-that's the treat

Good Morning Belle - Are you still on a cruise or back home?  Either way hope everything is going well.  I did not weigh myself this morning - maybe later.     

 

I Think my grandkids are coming over to go trick or treating and to give out candy --- they can take it home with them!!!   Jan

[Izena]

Good morning Belle and Jan.   Belle nice surprise to see you today.   Just got back from Walmart.  Cruised the candy isle -  didn’t buy any. Did buy a pack of 6 miniature donuts.  
 

leave Sunday on a road trip to ozarks with my son.   I’m truly enjoying his  company. Taking advantage of him willing to travel with me.  Haven’t weighed still focusing on recovery.  Still walking lots.  A neighborhood dog has joined us twice (I’ve named him Butch he is calm doesn’t seem to want to be touched , I think he just likes the company )

[Ombud]

Good morning everyone. Waist down 1/2" so it's working. Bought just 1 bag chocolates + 4 regular size bars for 4 youngest grandkids 

 

Belle, back from cruising or just a temporary break? Still wondering how to stay on track while cruising 

 

Jan, great idea to send home the balance of the bowl with grandkids 

 

Izena, aren't neighbor dogs the best!! I'm still walking with a pack of apx 12 in the morning but it's just Koda and me in the afternoon 

 

 

[Izena]

Weighed this am delighted I’m same since last weigh in which is in middle of my range.  I think my continued walks keep me in check.   Had funny dream last night -  involved JAZZPER  in the dream I noticed he had fleas then he wandered up a hill next thing I know he’s humping a small reindeer LOL
 

Ombud great loss.  

[Belle]

I'm Home!  Leaving again on Oct. 23rd was suppose to leave on Nov. 7th but

got an offer I couldn't refuse. Just booked the 23rd So doing a b2b to Hawaii, 30 days.

So have a short time to get ready, was just relaxing after last cruise so now I have to get busy.

 now that I booked it. I had a really good time on the cruise, met some others that I have cruised with before. Even won some money in the casino, some in the Slot Tournament $250 and won

 $2000 with a Royal Flush on a Video Poker slot machine.  Keeps me going.

 

 

Jan--How are you doing? Your treatments are half over, I think.  You still

feeling good? Any side effects, hope not besides being tired.

 

Izena--Thanks for starting posts. How are you healing?   Drains out?

Wishing you a good road trip with your son.

 

Jo--Think she's on a cruise now. Hope she's having a good time and weather.

 

Ombud--Good on losing on your waist. You're so good working on it after each cruise.

 

What I do on cruises Ombud, I'm solo so can eat however/whenever I want during the day.

So, I only eat 1 or 2 meals a day. Usually lunch and dinner, sometimes late lunch and just

 a snack in evening. If I have breakfast, I don't eat lunch, if eat lunch too, No dinner.

It works for me. I eat the things I want, good and bad. Don't have the ice cream every day.

Don't drink much even if free but do have some. Of course, I like the ones with most cals,

Mud slide for one. In my Elite bar set up I change for water and diet coke.

I don't eat a lot in the dining room, do the buffet, room service and sometimes the Crown,

 Sabatini's, IC and last cruise had Alfredo's. Always have most traveled lunch. I eat more in

the dining room when my daughter travels with me but sometimes we do our own thing.

On the ship you walk a lot. Walk more on the ship more than at home these past years.

What's funny on the ship with all the food I'm not really that hungry. But at home I'm hungry

and want to graze.

 

Hear this, Stayed the Same on the cruise but been home since Sunday afternoon and

I have gained a pound. I know why. Trying to eat things that are here, haven't gone shopping

because I'm leaving. Really need to go and get a few things, been eating to many carbs.

 

Susan and Peach where are you two? Hope your both doing good. If I'm missing someone,

I'm sorry. It's late.

 

PS Glad everyone is doing good with the "Candy"!

[Belle]

Good afternoon, everyone!  Hope your all having a good day.

 

Are you busy doing work (hope not) or out having fun. Come in and

say how your day has been going.  I'm trying to be good eating wise.

(Get off the pound and more--I wish)

How are you doing eating wise today?

[Belle]

Good Morning this Sunday.

 

Rise and Shine☀️--Hope you have the sun shining, not fog, rain, wind or snow!

Have a good day with family, friends or just yourself. Do something you

 enjoy or get work done you want to do. (I know you don't enjoy that as much)

 

I hope our eating goes well too. That we could have a loss or at least stay the same

on Monday. Weekends are hard sometimes on our eating and can have a gain on Monday 

we have to get off. Hope we all don't this Monday.

 

Take care---A Smile and a Hug for Everyone this Sunday to Start the Day Off Right!

Good Morning Belle - you are very cheerful today ... but, be looking forward to your newest cruise - I love Hawaii and so would like to go back, I have 7 cruises booked and really need to wait to book others, but I think Hawaii and Scandinavian should be on the list at a later date.

 

Things are going well here the leaves are just about after peak season, but still beautiful - today it is going to be a lovely day ... lots of sun and no rain!  Jan

[Belle]

Jan glad things are going well and your weather is good.

 

Isn't great to have cruises booked. So happy you have 7 booked and you're going in December.

Yes, you have to plan one to Hawaii, beautiful, more sea days but I like sea days, do you?

Can't believe how many I have booked for the rest of this year and 2023 so far.

Take care Jan and everyone else that is reading this. Have a good day.

 

 

 

[Belle]

It's Monday. Anyone around? How was your weekend?

I got the pound off I gained while home after cruise.

 

Hope everyone comes in and say's how they did this weekend in eating

and what you did. I didn't do much except get stuff together for the cruises.

Really being slow getting things together. Next Sunday night will be on a cruise ship.

Will I be ready? Have to run errands and get my flu shot among other things.

 

Ombud when talking about my eating on the cruise, sounded like maybe

I didn't enjoy the food--I do.  I remember when we 1st started cruising ate the

3 meals and midnight buffet. Now older just not as hungry on cruises.

I eat what I like but just not as much as I use to. I really think walking on the

ship and in ports really help. Plus being solo, think with others you tend to eat more.

 

Hope everyone has a good week. Can you believe October is half over.

[Belle]

No Talking!

Your computer/phone not working--whatever you use?

Can't use your hand to type or whatever?

You're not eating?

Are you working?

You left home?

 

Has to be a reason no one is talking.  I should be working but I'm talking!😄

[Jan_In_Maine]

Haven't talked today as this has been a crazy day - had radiation this morning (it went well), then lunch out with DH ... I had soup and not much of it ... nothing seems to be very interesting.  Met with my trainer this afternoon .... now home and almost time to make dinner, but first I need to do dishes.  Jan

[Belle]

Jan you are doing so well. Glad treatments going well. How many left.?

Hope you haven't lost your sense of taste for a while. You can still do exercise

doesn't bother you in the arm and chest? Hope it doesn't.

  Sorry for all the questions, just want to know how things are going for you.

If don't want to answer fine just tell me to shut up, nicely of course.😊

You know I care about even though we have never met. 

 

Thank you for talking the two times with my posts. No one else is talking.

Jan dishes before and after dinner, save them all and do in the morning, no really do them

all after dinner.  Of course with the time difference when you read this you've already eaten 

and did or did not do the dishes.😆

 

Take care have a good night and a wonderful Tuesday.

[Jan_In_Maine]

I have completed 19 treatments and I have 4 treatments this week, 5 next week and then 5 the week after.  I'm ready for this to be over!  I'm not having any pain in my arm or my chest.  I do have a rash that is a little itchy .... no burning .... the Doctor keeps telling me that it will get worse, but I am just going to assume that it will be fine all the way through it.

 

The most amazing part is that I think I could take my top off now in front of anyone ... that to me has been the hardest part.

 

Someday, Belle, we will meet - that would be great!

 

PS - I did all the dishes before dinner and now I have a new set, I usually try to do them all in the morning, but I seem to run out of time in the AM -  Jan

Huh?  Lack of posting?  Sorry I don't understand 😁

Jan, Sorry. I was interrupted my daughter just came to help me. My car acting up again

and I was running errands and getting my flu shot. Planned everything for today.

Other days getting ready for cruise and dinner with her and son, plus like to clean house a little.

So, this was my best day to go out. So, she took me around to the places I wanted/needed to go.

I leave Sunday. 4 days left for everything.

 

Yes, the why was for nobody talking except you. Then was going to talk to you.

Don't believe the doctor, think positive. Only a rash, light rash and no burning. Be over in

Three Weeks! Yea!  Glad you are feeling comfortable with your body.

 

Dishes are always around even for one person. I think the multiply.  Never think I had that

many dirty dishes after one meal or two. 

 

So, Now WHY isn't anyone TALKING except me and Jan.?

 

 

[Jan_In_Maine]

We should all talk about our dishes!!!!  

 

Izena - how are things going for you?
