Losing the COVID-19+ ... 79 days to go... or more?

 





I keep coming back around to it.
Even when I wake up motivated, I can't give up the carbs. 
And two pounds/week may be too much for me. I need to slow it down to 1 / week. 

Otherwise I'm not feeling satisfied. 

It will take me actually until April this way. But I've been struggling. 

Hopefully this is the key to my (slow) success. 

Rome wasn't built in a day, right?

 8:00am  A grey-haired lady walks by the big Living room window that sits by my Work from Home desk, which reminds me to take the dog for a walk and that I have a haircut appointment this afternoon. I'm eating half of a whole wheat raisin bagel, a bit burnt on the one end, while my coffee pot does it's thing and the dishwasher runs last night's dishes. My daughter is asleep on the couch and my husband is working in his chair in the Family room.  Already my phone is buzzing in my jeans pocket. My neck to shoulder muscle on my right side aches from "doing too much". It's become my M.O. lately, doing too much. Sword class last night involved a lot of swinging, going from one cut to another and not always the easy path.  And yet what's on my mind again, is always on my mind, is the 35 extra pounds I carry. It was 20 yesterday, but thanks to Facebook, I realized I looked my best 12 years ago, when I got my black belt in karate, and I know I weighed about 145 th...

Apple Butter Snickerdoodles from Saved Recipes - Sept 17, 2022

Image
Baking Day!  I've been thinking of actually trying the saved recipes from my Facebook page and blogging them here.  I think it would be an interesting experiment to see if things turn out as well as they look. Maybe I'll tackle some Pinterest recipes too - if I can figure out how to actually get to their recipes...I swear it just takes you down a rabbit hole with some of them! A few days ago I ran across a Apple Butter Snickerdoodles  recipe. It's a completely FALL thing to make and I'm looking forward to eating it! The recipe is soft so it requires you chill before baking, which is a pain because my fridge is pretty stocked on Saturdays, but I made some room. The dough tastes tangy and a bit cinnamony which is really wonderful. I hope the cookie is just as good baked.  I'm watching the Witcher while I make them, wondering to myself if the monsters they have in this show are made up for the show or if Im just not well versed in monsters? Anyway, the first batch ...

If I can't have you...

If I cant have you   <-- (Click for the song)                                                              June 18 (Tues) Personal Wellness is our new mantra at work and I'm on board. Partly because I spend more time with these people than with my family, so they will notice whether I'm taking care of myself. Look at it as accountability. The other obvious part is that there is this rumor that I will look and feel better and younger. That's okay with me. I've been feeling like an old blob lately. But ... I like eating the white carbs, white flour, sugar, and fat in massive quantities. My body hates it but my mouth and my hormones are singing. I have to look into what else I can be eating and what appeals to me. Clearly I need sweet taste, and great textures. And then there is the exercise. Oh bother. This is gon...
