day 43....
Very humid again today! UGH!!! I hate this....I'd rather it be about 27*c. Usually don't get the humidity when it 27 or below. I was so tired last night that when I came home from my b-friends I went straight to bed...didn't even sign on here to finish my day or edit my Habitcal. Today is a seminar ...

Hey blue, sounds like Lola is making a great steady recovery. I'm so glad to hear that. :) And aren't you/we lucky to have the strong habits of No S to help us through a crisis and to help us get right back on track strongly when the crisis is over?! Your blueberry pie looks delicious on your blog! ...

day 42....
Taking a break from doing organizing and clean up around the house. Now that it's officially up for sale I've got to keep it looking good all the time. That won't be too hard since it's only me and the cat most of the time. It's very humid here again today...but overcast. I think were supposed to ge...

As we take over fkwan's daily check in BA...lol....let me express that I can understand your frustration, because I have similar ones of my own. And I do understand about how much harder it is to lose weight as we get older. At almost 45 ( a little over a month away) I can feel that in my body too. ...

I don't know if it's a matter of comprehension BA, it might be more of how shockingly little that amount of calories sounds. The thought of anyone eating only 1000 calories a day....seems impossible to achieve without total and complete feelings of deprivation, obsession and hardship, to me at least...

41st day....
Whew, gonna be a scorcher today! A high UV index, smog alert and the humidex making it feel like 32* C, that would be about 89.6*F for all my American friends ;) I'll have to wait until it cools down this evening to get in my MwP. In the meantime got stuff to do here @ my store and stuff to do at my...

The walk through the park wasn't as long as I would have liked, even though we took the long loop, because the mosquitos were eating me alive!!! Why do they like me so much? My mom used to say they like sweet blood....but I don't know why they seem to like me. Anyway, because I wanted a longer walk,...

It's good that you're re-focusing Moxie. I had to do the same thing, which I started 40 days ago and it's going great. Have you noticed how many of us on here have done similar things in re-focusing but NONE of us have left or quit? Now that really truly shows that the No S plan is a plan for life! ...

Thanks Moxie. :) Only what does KUTWG stand for? I was/am having some digestive upset again this morning. Went over to my b-friends for breakfast. Him and I were discussing it and knowing what I know about my body and it's sensitivity to carbs and sugar (which has developed over the last 2 yrs), we ...

Wow blue, Lola is 'small but mighty'! Glad to hear of the steady progress she's making. :) Will be sending her healing vibes so that she starts eating and drinking on her own. You are smart to put a few things on the 'red' back burner for now while your thoughts and energy are focused on Lola. Life ...

40th day....
Well I'm feeling better this morning, digestive upset seems to have cleared. Ugh! It's 8 'o clock Sunday morning and I don't feel like doing anything today, but I have to get stuff done around the house because I need to get it listed this week for sure. My yard sale went really well though, sold lo...

One of the things I am finding I like best about the whole No S plan is the Habitcal. I love using such a simple but effective tool to build new habits. I am building No S, No Scale and MwP (exercise) Habits, that are really starting to become ingrained and almost 2nd nature after 39 days. You can s...

Thanks for the good wishes Resting! I am happy to help my niece. She approached me (sent me an email) because she doesn't feel she can do it with her mom (my sis). My sis is very over weight, and has not recently indicated any desire to try and change things, so I will leave it up to her and in the ...

Getting ready for my yard sale tomorrow...made up new signs today. Ran a few errands this morning. Had a problem with the freezer in my store last night, but it looks like my awesome b-friend fixed it. He can fix anything I swear. So had to throw a few things out but not much...whew! :) Again thanks...

Actually got in a 2nd walk last night. I did my walk while my b-friend was at a meeting, but when he was done he wanted to go for a walk....so of course I went with him. No killer hills, but a 20-30min walk for sure at a nice pace. Wish I could mark my green square darker or something...lol. Tonight...

OMG blue, I am so sorry to hear about your kitty. I know what you are going through. Last June I had to have my 14yr old dog euthanized because the vet thinks he threw a blood clot into his lungs....and there was nothing we could do. It was the hardest decision but the only right one under the circu...
