I do have some photo's of Abigail but will have to share tomorrow. I am in living room and too lazy to go to other computer.MMM maybe I can get one. Ok I did get my 2 favorites. The one looks like she is saying"I just did something and I'm not telling" What a little stinker.

It is hard to cut water as well as food. You are doing very well. Keep up the good work!

I love the pictures of Abigail!! The second one is great! Please be very careful in the kitchen until your blood thickens up. I didn't know salad had that affect. I know the fiber years up my tummy occasionally. Have a great night and wonderful Valentine's Day with Bill! Report Inappropriate Comment |

Hi Eleni......... YOU be VERY careful around anything sharp!!!!! It is good that you are monitoring closely. You are right.........the second picture of Abigail definitely shows "Attitude". How cute!!! Elizabeth just left and we won't see her until a week from Friday. She and her Mommy and Daddy leave for Disneyland on Thursday. My DIL's brother lives real close to Disneyland, so they will stay with him. Elizabeth is "Over-the-moon" excited!!! I'm going to call it a night. I'm tired. Later........

 HAPPY VALENTINES DAY

Didn't do anything exciting but did complete a few projects.
First I finished up my meds. This time I took 5 days by doing just a little each night. One night was just getting all the bags ready.Then each night made up 3 weeks of one pill taking.I take pills 4 times a day. I am amazed I don't have an ulcer.Today put them all together on one huge safety pin for each week. Then straighten out box I keep pill bottles in.
Next was spices. I had Bill bring all my spices to my card table. My 2 everyday swivels and my other turn tables of extra spices. It is time to make my special italian spice mix that I use on almost anything. First I made sure every day jars were full and reorganized them a little different.Meanwhile having my list I need for spices so I can see what I have and what I need. I ended up needing 4 spices which isn't bad. I always have trouble finding a spice called savory. My grand daughter Felicia works at publix and said she can get it for me.
And speaking of Felicia she just called me a few minutes ago to tell me Abigail took her first step without falling down. Felicia was so excited. I told her to get some new running shoes as she is going to need them.She also bought herself a new camera so facebook will be full of pics for me to choose from.
We had turkey burgers tonight.No bread. Bill's was just plain burger but I stuffed mine. Made two thin burgers and put some shredded cheese and frozen spinach on one and topped with 2nd thin burger. Sealed the edges.When Bill's got done I took his out and put mine in oven for 10 minutes.
It was good.Next time maybe I will add some mushrooms.
I have started tracking my water.Will need to do it for several days to get an average. I am still drinking a lot but less than I was.It isn't easy to cut back as I am usually drinking fluids all day and even during the night. Meds make mouth so dry during the day and my full face c-pac really dries my mouth so I keep a drink by bed.
Angel is getting good at the couponing.But the stuff I buy doesn't have as many coupons. She did really good today but she didn't have anything that would be called healthy. I did learn that the stores really take coupons from other stores.Just have to check stores to see what they will take.
Bill was laughing at my card table.It has become my desk / work station. It gives me room to spread out. If anyone is coming to house I can take it down.
I guess that is it
Oh Smartie pants Bill has lost 8#. His biggest weakness is fries and ice cream. He has cut back on potatoes but was just eating ice cream.. He never eats large amounts of anything. He has so much will power
Hope you had a good weekend. It did not get as cold as it was suppose to but heat did come on often.By Wed we will be back in high 70's.

Hi Eleni........ You accomplished a lot on Sunday. I did a few things, but for some reason was very tired. I pushed to get things done but didn't do as much as I had hoped. My back has been bothering me and when that happens it really slows me down. Good for Bill. I wish that I could get Ken to get back on track. He loses so quickly when he does watch what he eats and hits the treadmill. I wish I could lose half that fast!!! Abigail taking her first step reminded me of our youngest son. He came over on Saturday with his girlfriend's 6-month old daughter and she is starting to crawl all over. No more letting her out of his sight. I told him that his busy days are right around the corner. He has NO IDEA how fast Sadie will travel!!!!! Have a great week.  Patti Report Inappropriate Comment |

I'd say you had a good Sunday Eleni. You got lots done re:pills and spices, that's more than I did, lol. Yup, men seem to lose weight better than we women do, it's just their nature I think. I've got a niece that can gain by just looking at food yet her husband eats and eats and his weight stays the same. Go figure!

Good to get the meds done and out of the way! Men do seem to lose weight faster don't they? My hubby doesn't eat much and is about 100 lbs less than I weigh.

You had a busy and productive weekend! I've never used the spice called savory. Do you use it plain on anything or do you mix it with other spices? All the men I know drop weight much quicker. It's so unfair!!  Good for Bill! 8 pounds is great for cutting back on food. I hope you have a great Monday! Report Inappropriate Comment |

It's wonderful that you accomplished some things today as I've been kind of slug--just reading and sparking & daydreaming the day away for me. Men always seem to have more willpower and lose weight so much easier than women. My ex used to buy a lb bag of candy and it would last him all week if I did that it would all be gone in a day or even a couple of hours--LOL!

on a good job with the calories and the fluids. Maybe the weight loss is already affecting your energy levels. Can't hurt.......
Great to here the scale was down for you!! It's fine that it's fluid. When it comes to drinking, I have the opposite problem. I'm lucky if I drink 32 ounces a day. 
on the weight loss. It ALL counts.
