LOVESLIFE - I do hope that your son enjoys his new job and everything goes well.
I've been working most of the weekend, bummer I know. I'm going to get in my exercise this morning and have breakfast. Then it's back to work I go...I'm hoping to get a walk in at lunch, and be home before 10pm tonight.
Wishing everyone a great day.

Sorry I'm so late. I had to be at work at 6:15am, clean and close the kitchen at work, go to the end of the year banquet (very boring!!), open a checking account for my son, take my MIL out to eat for Mother's Day, come home and do the dishes, help my son with more stuff he wanted to move. So, it's been busy!! Will check in tomorrow!!
Hope you had a relaxing day Newgoals2!!! Hugs!!

Good evening everyone. I hope you all had a great day.
Each week I try to give myself a mini-goal to help me focus. This week my goal is to make the foods I eat look more appealing. Ever since I started the new eating plan my meals are healthier, but not very pretty. Now why did I stop making my meals visually pleasing just because I started a new way of eating. Silly, huh...

LOVESLIFE12 - it sounds like the graduation went wonderfully. For a celebration meal, I think you did really well. Good for you.
Today my hubby took me to the annual chili cook off. We had a blast - as usually. This year we shared our taster cups, which cut my calories in half. And, hubby thought it was kind of romantic. Double win.
After the cook off we decided to go and see the new Avengers movie. What a kick - we really enjoyed it.
I hope the rest of the weekend is wonderful for everyone...All my best

Thanks everyone! Graduation was wonderful, only 2 hours!! And the President of the school said this was the largest class in Ranken's history!! 1010 students!!!! And yes, it was done in 2 hours!! Oh, and my boy looked so handsome!! LOL!!!
We then went out to eat, except for the graduate, he took off with his friends. So, it was my hubby, myself, my oldest son, my parents and my MIL. I ate kinda bad, I had a country fried steak, mashed potatoes, (but not all of them) green beans, I ate all of them, and slaw (didn't eat all of them. Then my mom knew the waitress and she brought 2 pieces of chocolate pie, on the house!! I only had 3 fork fulls and let my son have the rest, it was amazing!!

NEWGOALS2, I know how you feel about the weight - we've got an old piece of property we're trying to get ON the market & sold. Once it goes I'll be feeling as good as you! It might be a while though.
Thanks LOVESLIFE! DH is feeling much better. I highly recommend coconut oil both internally & externally - can't believe how well he's doing!!
Enjoy & make the best of the day!

Today is going great - it feels as if a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I just have time for a quick check in before I get exercising. I hope one and all have a wonderful day.

AHAPPYLIFE - shingles, uggghhh. Don't like the sound of that. I hope that your Hubby feels better soon. I'll also look up your recipes.
LOVESLIFE12 - Happy B-day to the Hubby. I'm sure whatever you make will be joyous for his celebration. Wishing your son the best on his new job opprotunity. Finding a new apartment as well, how exciting.
Me, today is a good day. I got some good news first thing in the AM, house appears to have sold. Yippeeeeee!!! (Snoopy Happy Dance for all concerned)
Now I've got to settle down and get to work. It's a lovely day - maybe a nice walk in the PM before I go to my lecture.
Wishing everyone a great day ahead.

Sorry team, I've been a bit busy since yesterday afternoon. DH had me drive him to the ER but he's just fine with the exception of a case of shingles & some lingering pain. Today I was helping out MIL with insurance & blood tests.
All is good! Just made a great recipe - Tuna Melt. It's shared here on Spark People - super easy, fast, & yummy!

The last couple of days have been wonderful, weather wise. While everyone else has been having hot and humid days, it turned back into late fall here. My walks have been both enjoyable and comfortable.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day. May you have satisfying, healthy meals; stimulating exercise; and time to enjoy your family and friends.

Enjoy the BBQ. Sorry about the heat there. It's still rather cool here with some freezing temps overnight.
We grilled tonight, New York steaks. Added some steamed veggies & chipotle sweet potato fries (Alexia makes them). I also decide to have some wine & I still have 82 more calories to hit the lower end of my calories for today. Today has been a good day!

Hope you have a wonderful day!!

My girls were bound to leave Alaska for college. When I took my oldest to Idaho, I cried all the way home. The stewards/stewardess' were besides themselves. I couldn't stop sobbing. Now my youngest lives in California & I get to visit 2 or 3 times a year. Just not the same.
Congrats on his graduation & job! That's excellent news in this economy! BTW, the leftovers were very good but by the time I get home from work, my DH will have finished it all off!!
Take good care in those storms & tie everything down!!

My youngest son graduates from college on the 12th. And he got a job already!! he starts on the 21st. But, he has to move, otherwise he wil be driving 110 miles one way. So, we have to start apartment hunting ASAP!!! I'm very happy for him but I hate the idea he has to leave!! He's only just turned 20 in April!!
I hope all is well!! We are supposed to get some sever storms today, well shall see!! Stay safe and have a wonderful day!!
Ahappylife, I love the laughter of children!! I work in a school cafeteria with 4th & 5th graders, I love to see them happy and laughing!!
Your dinner sounds very yummy!! Did you save me some!! LOL!!!

LOVESLIFE, I've try to never forget there's a child inside me nor stop loving the sounds of children's laughter. Wishing you bunches of grand kids & all the joy that goes with it!!
I made a great dinner yesterday, low cal/low fat. Had it for lunch today & made it even better after I found the La Tortilla Factory mini wraps at on 50 calories each. They'll make a great replacement for bread as well but not as good as a lettuce wrap! Trying to keep the cals really in line today because I have a special piece of pineapple upside down cake with my name on it - it'll be CLOSE on the days nutritional counts!

LOVESLIFE, it made me tired just reading your post. Put your feet up & grab some rest!!
NEWGOALS, productive days make for restful nights!
I've had an enjoyable day. A little grocery shopping, a few pats on the back to my husband for trying to quit smoking again, & went to my GD's school to watch a presentation. Love the way that girl blows me kisses!! Awwwwwwweee!

What a day!!! I got a call at 5:50am to go into work to be head cook. So I worked 6:15 to 3:00. We didn't get a sub. so we had 3 people in the kitchen today. Then I get home and the toilet over flowed all over the floor. So I had towels to wash. Then my son comes home with new dress pants for a job interview tomorrow and wants them washed. I think I'm taking a shower and going to bed!!!
Have a nice evening!!
