That's cool that both are going thru this journey together.

I had to re-focus on my exercise, yesterday in the afternoon I was watching tv and told myself that I needed to do some workout. It's been colder outside so it's hard for me to get into the working out mode. Anyway, I got my taebo videos out and did my 45 min workout yesterday????✌????️

I've been really struggling with exercise too but we are remodeling our house to put it on the market so I do manual labor instead. I'll get back to it soon though.

I used to have the old taebo videos, the ones from 1990's. You know when I had the surgery I remembered how much I enjoyed the taebo video exercise so I went online ordered the DVDs thru Amazon and guess what is the old one the one that it had the instructional, basic and 8 min workout. It comes in one dvd and it only cost me 7.99 I love it!

@@lorri716 everything counts towards exercise, as long as we are moving works. Have fun remodeling ????

7.99 that's awesome! I have so many exercise dvds. I can't wait to actually get to using some of them. As soon as my house remodeling is complete.

My day has been good, we went to the Apple Store to get my laptop fix. However, traffic is crazy with all the people shopping for Christmas. We went to chick filet to eat and I had the grilled chicken nuggets. They were good and 140 calories, not bad. I also took a protein shake cause I new I was going to be out for more then 4 hours.

Yes my daughter did hit onederland. I'm so proud of her. She's doing really well. I hate the xmas traffic but I guess it'll all be over before we know it. Glad your doing well.

What is everyone doing for thanksgiving dinner? I have 2 college kids, a daughter and a son and my 8 year old son. Well, they already made a list of the food they want and everything is very high in calories and carbs.

My son wants tamales which he gets home tomorrow so I made them already. For thanksgiving dinner they wants ribs, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese (homemade) and fried corn. My goodness I will need to be very careful. Oh and Desserts. My family don't like much the turkey, only me I guess. Well I will make sure I have a Protein shake on hand. ????????

Tpost-260556-14483330413267_thumb.jpg this is my evening snack cucumbers and jicama with lime and chili powder. I usually eat it when I want something crunchy.

We will do traditional turkey, mashed potatoes, broccoli and homemade noodles, stove top stuffing this year since that's what my daughter likes, I prefer my homemade but oh well, dinner rolls, birthday cake as today is my hubby's birthday and Thurs is my daughter's, we will also have pumpkin pie and maybe a chocolate pudding pie. Ugh I'll need to be really careful too. The cucumbers look good.
