I will admit it, I am HORRIBLE with exercise. I don't do it, never really have. I do kinda like strength training though and have found a new toy I love!!!! It's an over the door resistance training set. I've used it 6 times in 2 days, lol. We'll see if it helps with toning.....here's hoping

Found a couple of recipes that I tried this weekend. All I can say is I was pleasantly surprised, because these are sooooooo good!!!
Salty & Crunchy Treat
2 bunches spirally kale (could prob use any type)
Olive oil (didn't measure - just enough to lighly coat kale
salt & pepper to taste
Optional;
I sprinkled mine with a light dusting of Parmesan & Romano cheese (cheap stuff in the shaker bottle)
Bake @ 350 for 12-15 minutes.
Sweet Treat
1 Frozen banana (cut to bite size and freeze 1-2 hrs)
splash of almond milk
vanilla flavor to taste
Blend in food processor until smoothe - soooooo good!
Hope ya'll enjoy, I know I have - bye bye pringles and Ben & Jerry's

Off topic, I know, but have you ever thought of being a writer - your way with words is so fluid!
Congrats and good luck for your journey

Came across this idea online a couple of weeks ago and can't even remember where, so I make no claims to this being my idea. An easy way to fit in your 5 a day is with a smoothie. The base for the smoothie is a cup of spinach and 2 bananas - then add fruit and veggies as desired. My usual is;
1 cup spinach (I use frozen)
2 bananas
1/2 cup strawberries
1/2 cup sliced apples (with peels)
1 small can sliced pinapple with juice
1 cucumber (with peels)
1 pack berry blend Protein mix
Enough Water to blend
It's quite tasty! You don't "taste" the spinach but you sure see it, and the cucumber gives it a fresh flavor with no real taste because the sweetness of the fruits dominate your taste buds. As a bonus, adding this to my diet has broken my latest stall.
If anyone tries it, let me know what you think and any variations you've tried that are yummy (especially one with more veggies than fruit)

I actually got hit on tonight! Not something that ever really happens to me, but anyways, he seemed really nice, was attractive and clean cut and funny. So, I gave him my number for us to text and see what happened from there.
So we began texting and he was so complimentary, but then.........
Why is it men have to turn texting into SEXTING??? Yes, sex is part of life, but come on! How about spending time getting to know something about someone before bringing it up.....on the first night? Sorry that I'm on a rant here, but it just sucks.....I was so excited. Now I have to wonder if it's him or if I put out some sort of vibe that says that would be okay.

I remember that I had one site that really bothered me and remember mentioning it at my 6 week check up and was told it was most likely the inner stitch still healing. With the little scars on the outside it sometimes escaped us how much went on, on the inside. As always, your best bet is to check with your doctor, always better safe than sorry. Hope you feel better soon!

It's him. Some guys will try even if you aren't putting that vibe out there. I have a dear (married) friend who is like that. All the gals I know just laugh his attempts off, but he still tries. His saving grace is that he's charming about it, and he's as much of a flirt with his wife around as he is without his wife around.
My only suggestion is to accept the flattery and avoid the bedroom, unless you really are interested in having that kind of relationship with him. And, yes, there are some nice men out there, they just aren't usually as outgoing as the Casanova types.

From a guy's perspective, even if you put out a vibe that is no reason for him to act like a jerk. You were only texting, not like you were out on a fifth date and acting like giddy high school kids, in which case you just slap him silly.
If you like him then tell him to stop it and you prefer a gentleman. If he can't do that then drop him, block his number, and remember the song by Captain and Tenille "You better shop around"

Okay, we all know that as we lose weight, we begin to carry ourselves differently and some of us make changes. Well, last weekend I got a haircut, a completely different look. I always wore my hair in a bun to work for the last several months, but Monday I went in with my hair down. Needless to say, it got a good bit of attention and comments. But what I didn't know about was what happened on the other side of the room until one of my friends told me - one of the new guys fell out of his chair trying to get a look at the "new girl", lol! I don't think I stopped smiling the rest of the night

One of the best tasting purees I had was the inside of a soft taco from Taco Bell (minus almost all the lettuce). You can add more Protein by adding in some refried Beans as well.
