THEY COUNT! Love the zebra rendition and heel detailing - Gorgeous!

LOVE LOVE LOVE! OMG!!! This outfit is GORGEOUS on you. You made the dress!? Wow. Will you make me one - only a midi length... I don't have pretty legs like you. Seriously... this is a stunning look on you - I hope you'll find a place to wear it soon. Great Fall sensibility, too. It totally envelopes your to die for figure GT! The constructed jacket adds a nice contrast to the free flow. Thanks for sharing. Wow.

The perfect opportunity to go do more shopping! Right? You definitely need an animal print in your wardrobe, ms.sss!!! This was the dress back when I was still losing at 135 pd - size 10/12. Have not done arm surgery yet. The skirt is at settled 118 - size 4/6. Animal print shoes count too, for the fashion show! Fun.

Yes, definitely... A mini skirt with fish net stockings and a pair of your fabulous shoes!

ACTUALLY, I THINK we are all the tinniest in the room NOW! Well done everyone. We deserve that status after our serious commitments to a slimmer, healthier and happier lifestyle. I am so proud of us all. And, our personal achievements shared here. My hats off to you!

Sorry for the multiple posts by accident!

Oops... This was a short sleeve dress with a top over - got the skirt later. AND found this pic of the other ribbed dress when we were doing our clothes closet shows - Remember? I miss SillyKitty. :[ I need to wear it now that I am living in cooler climes!

I say... Let's all go on the wild side AND show our inner animal instincts! I'll go second with two looks...same skirt. Wishme - so glad you are feeling better. GROWL...This dress looks amazing on you!

Do you have a ribbed dress, too? DO MODEL for us... And, that pale blush jacket again - I want to borrow! I am wearing the Moto jacket and rib dress to a special baby shower and luncheon. Our wedding flower girl all grown up - and having her first baby girl. I have NEVER worn this outfit outside my closet or home as of yet. With Covid all events for the opportunity to wear FAB things cancelled! Until now. I'll still wear my mask (my first calculated risk after 19 months) since it is with a group of ladies - many I do not know. And, it's indoors. Oh boy! ...Had so much fun collecting things for her gift basket. These miniature outfits cracked me up! Arabesque - do you have a ribbed dress to model? Fun.

WOW! Our own Bond girl once again emerges. FABULOUS million dollar look for just $22. BUT the dress is made by the lovely in it. Could you even imagine wearing this a few years ago? I just love my lavender rib dress on sale last Spring. Never would have dreamed I could wear this style a mere 3 years ago... I adore my sleeve and so does my closet!

Now that's one HOT lookin' Mama! Very COOL and a great look for you.

You and your daughter would have loved our consignment shoppes in Palm Beach! I frequented them often finding some amazing belts AND some couture outfits never worn still with tags. ;]

OH one is NEVER too young, old or cool for a pumpkin patch! What a gorgeous family, GT - you must be so proud. They are growing up so fast given past posts. Is that their beautiful big sister third from the left!? ;]

Ooch! I do hope the sweet potato recipe was worth it... Glad you are on the mend now. Hail to the nieces! These shoes are beyond ADORABLE!!! So happy. The pink and burgundy look so pretty with your ivory porcelain skin. I concur with ms.sss - fantastic pedicure, too. Yes, we are researching possible lots and neighborhoods to rebuild our former home with a new regional styling. Met with builder and architect last week - as I concentrate on the interior design - space, lighting, electrical planning. Will incorporate existing furnishings. Fun! Your guest room will be ready, hopefully summer of 2022... the same goes for ms.sss and greenteal. It's definitely time for the reunion robbed of us by covid twice! ;[ I'll take shoe pics this weekend. Oh BTW, the movers commented to my husband - she sure likes chairs and shoes doesn't she!? ;]

VERY COOL! Thanks for sharing. Know what you mean by a pleated skirt. I LOVE this linen skort but it is a b***h to iron... I do love your black and white skirt with black T shirt AND sandals to die for! Looking gorgeous, as always. Missed out on the finger thing - hope all is well? Just ordered a great pair of hip, off white winter flats for trip in October. I think you'd approve!

Hey fellow foodies! Back on the radar after a major move and settling into our new community. We are becoming acquainted with the area and enjoying some of the local cuisine. We are in a temporary rental home and not keen on the kitchen. Find it hard to get motivated to cook in it. Gas range, I liked electric. I really miss my island for prep and the bright happy sun drenched space. It's a bit dark and dreary in this kitchen. Dysfunctional layout, too... Any hooo, split the cobb salad with hubby Thursday. And, we shared pork chop dinner tonight. I ate ¼ of the meal. And, nibbled on this amazing banana pudding.

Lunch out yesterday while running errands from The Leftovers Cafe in Jupiter. BQ grilled chicken, Brie (not a fan) with plantains (do love) - along with a side of their Mexican street corn. Ate about ¾ chicken, small slice of plantain and couple bites of coconut rice (yum) and corn. The rest went for hubs lunch today.

Such happy little sandwiches...like you! How goes your summer, darling!?

Salad for lunch today... Love red radishes and walnuts. Very light ranch dressing - as a treat. Ate the entire portion here.

OH PLEASE come cook for me!!! All looks delish...

Dave in Houston, you will regain your love for cooking and food again once you have lost the appropriate weight through each and all important phases needed for your long term success and well being. You will go through grief over some foods and portions you may have once loved, but may find no longer satisfying, digestible or best for your new health adventure. You might find great adventure and rewards in seeing food in a new light - experimenting and trying new recipes. I encourage you to continue on this thread going back to early on posts gaining invaluable information, encouragement and insight on others who have gone before you. I always loved salads before and after surgery but there were a few months salad was not the best choice at that time. 2 ½ years out salads are a staple and enjoyable as they once were but portions resized and evolving ingredients to keep things healthy and exciting! I do cook simpler now - but definitely not bland or unappealing. Some food types and drinks I simply did not re-introduce feeling them not to be the best choices for my nutritional needs and long term value. Congratulations on your journey and new adventure with food. Here is a sampling of new delectables I'm enjoying...

A little flower power worn at lunch date with good friend today.

It's actually a smaller tomato and I carve out some of the center about ½ way using those pieces for a tossed salad later. Chicken salad is pretty good in it, too! Also, two halves of small tomato with melted cheddar, swiss, parma etc. in the broiler browned is yummy with slice of roast beef, chicken thigh, ham protein. BTW, hubby made you a mini strawberry rhubarb pie! ;]

That LOOKS amazing... I love hard salami and cashews with all those variety of cheeses! WOW! Kristie - you can expect us all to join you for lunch soon in Boston...
