WOW! That's a great day with a lot accomplished. I watched my grandkids bowl and did a bit of grocery shopping on the way ho and that was about it-had problems with dizziness and upset stomach so I didn't do much of anything. Send me some energy, please!! Report Inappropriate Comment

Foggy Friday!!!!

Friday, January 20, 2012

It is 35 and foggy here in central Oklahoma!!!!! It was not that way when I got to work! I have vacuumed, watered the plants, changed filters in the fish tank. Now to real work! I have done a lot of manual labor over the last week-You would think that would help with weight loss. But sadly no!! I think the problem is that DH and I are eating at home. In a restaurant there is (for Me) better portion control. I have to find a way to do a better with that are home!!! I need a smaller plate. I also need to fix My plate from the stove and not get seconds. Maybe second on some veggies. I will do this! OH YES I WILL!!!!!! Have a great day Spark Buddies!!! Love Y'all!! (((((((((HUGS)))))))))) Susan

You mentioned a lot of things that you could do to help yourself lose weight and they are all good hints! Sally Report Inappropriate Comment

OLDERDANDRT 1/21/2012 12:41PM

That sounds great! Smaller plate. Also, the nutrition plate that is replacing the "pyramid" is laid out very nicely. Maybe use that as a template when you fill your plate? I try. But the only way you can stop refills is just to not. It's not always so easy. But, we can do it!! Love ya! Keep up the great work!! (Do some squats and lunges as you water the plants and change your filters! Quick Fire yourself throughout your day! It really helps! Report Inappropriate Comment

KERRYG155 1/20/2012 10:19PM

I've been using a smaller plate for years. My famiyl has finally gotten used to it-even my grandkids know which plate belongs to grandma! It does make portion control easier. I bought some new dishes for Christmas but haven't gotten them out of the box yet-I'm hoping they are all smaller than what is in the cupboard now so the rest of the family can learn without noticing! lol Report Inappropriate Comment

Drink two or three large glasses of water before you eat, helps with portion control. Have a great weekend! Report Inappropriate Comment

Try measuring out what you would have for two weeks. That may make a difference in your perception of serving sizes. Report Inappropriate Comment

LVMAMAW 1/20/2012 3:23PM

You are human, we all struggle with portion control (including seconds). You are doing great! You CAN DO THIS!! Report Inappropriate Comment

I needed someone to get that Santa chocolate bar OUT of my HOUSE! Too late! It's already in my tummy! Report Inappropriate Comment

JSALERNO 1/20/2012 10:56AM

I DON'T HAVE THAT PROBLEM BECAUSE I PLAN HOW MUCH I CAN EAT BEFORE I EAT AND NEVER TAKE SECONDS. WHEN I'M DONE I'M DONE EVEN IF I FEEL I COULD EAT MORE. Report Inappropriate Comment

It is a Beautiful Day!!!!! Enjoy!!

I talked to my daughter in OKC and she said it was about 60 there. It is in the 20's with wind chills much lower in central Kansas. Glad things went well with the audit. I am sure that will make the rest of the week go better. Report Inappropriate Comment
