    Staying the Course -- 5-28-2015

    My STC story is that after the Kentucky Derby, and our Derby party, I shot up five pounds. I am down to 198.6, which is still up a couple pounds from my last post. I'm eating healthier now and feel like I'm in a groove. I'll report next week and find out if I can stay in the groove. Cooker, if...

    Well again, I've missed a few weeks. Now the chimp has gone and swung out of the Throwdown jungle. I will miss seeing you post, but will continue to participate even if I am spotty about it. I really don't read much else on vr.org except the Throwdown. My aorta valve, that at one point the...

    Didn't pick the winner of the Derby, but we had a ball at our party. Friends are the cream of the crop! Hope everyone's having a good Monday.

    I agree Superbob, there will never be another Secretariat. Yes, they like to stir up the Triple Crown talk ever year. Good for betting maybe. I'm impressed that anyplace outside of Kentucky is having a Derby Party. I would watch from home as well, even I think it's cool they're having it. I love...

    Cooker, sometimes you have to deal with things the best you can and dieting may not be number one on the list. Hope you heal up soon!

    I did weigh last week and this week, just have been very busy. 196.5 last week. 196.3 this week. We're having a Kentucky Derby party tomorrow, so that will be a splurge day to say the least. Have a good week everyone!

    SB, will be praying for you. Hope you get back to pain free walking! Great job Duffey. I need to follow your example! Cooker, hope your appointment went well. A small loss is better than a small gain any day!

    Great Cooker! Sounds like those 8.5 pounds needed to come off. I am the same too, that is I haven't weighed yet. Cindy's having a group of card fanatics over to play cards with her. I'm just going to socialize and snack a little. If I can stay awake until they leave is the question. I've been...

    Hi Fearless Chimp! Good to see you too. Can I ask what surgery you had?

    Duffey, I'm glad to see I'm not straggling alone. I'll join the feeling defeated not quite ready to throw in the towel club. Sorry you've had such a hard time physically. As far as my weight, I don't know the number and maybe at some point I'll get further out of denial to see what it is. One...

    Hello everyone. I've missing in inaction for too long. We just recently bought a house nearby after renting the last one for almost two years. Were in the process of buying the last one, but it required an exorbitant flood insurance policy. Anyway, this move kicked my butt and I am at the point...

    Prayers for Susan. Continued prayers for you Duffey. YAY! No cancer. I'm glad for you. How difficult that would be not knowing something like that for three months. I hope the rest of your recovery is much better than you've had so far. Good job Cooker. I am still not weighing. Don't know when...

    SB, okay I was a little bit wrong about Kansas beating Kentucky. 72-40...huh? Go SEC.

    Congrats to the Vols! I heard some of the game over the radio while Cindy listened to it, until she finally had enough at the end of the third quarter. That's saying something because she never gives up on a game. The football Wildcats aren't very wild and so unlike typical cats in that other...

    I have used almond flour in other recipes and it's great. I will have to do a search for recipes for traditional Jewish cakes. I'm sure I would like them! As far as the carrot cake goes, I wonder if you can add unsweetened applesauce in addition to the almonds? I think it might need the...

    Prayers and good thoughts for Duffey. Glad to hear the good report Señor Chimp. El SB, continued prayers that your new chiro doc's treatment and regimen will bring to fruition your goals and lessen or eliminate your pain.
