Good morning!!!!

[txdon]

Txdon it has been one week since I have eaten any meat, none, nothing! All veggies and fruit. I haven't lost any weight, and I'm not over eating, and feeling sluggish what's the secret here. I'm ready to eat a medium rare cow.

Fried veggies? Sweetened fruit? Any grains or greens? Any oils? Any salad dressing? Any nuts? Any processed foods? If you write down everything you eat or drink in a diary you should see where your extra calories are coming from. How are you flavoring your food? Any cheese or any animal products. Milk is just liquid meat and cheese is just fat.

Dabsgt you might want to try Prolon for 5 days to give you a jump start. You just eat what they send in the package - you will loose 7-10 lbs in 5 days.
Fasting Mimicking Diet | Prolon FMD It actually does get you back on track on portion size - it's all plant based also.

Good evening all. 71F this morning, mostly clear sky, calm wind. Moderate north north wind most of the day, shift to south wind early evening, high temp 96 HI 103F. Going to be hot next several days temps in upper 90's and HI well over 100F. Bike ride to start the day, mowed most of the lawn stopped because it was hot and need to deal with sand burrs. Napped after lunch the take wife to dinner :thumbsup:
Randy, understand your feelings wife decided to have lawn mowed twice while gone on bike ride, second was done after i got back, could not shake the what do I do now the rest of the day :confused3:
Thomas, congrats on setting the date, I gave 1 yr notice, so they could hire guy and maximize overlap time, then the replacement not hired until 9 months later :confused3: . Good luck with the bear, anyone help relocating troublesome animals? Bear bags?
PJ, nice job on the pergola.
prayers for all.

Might want to substitute some whole grain carbs for the high calorie oils and nuts. Why no carbs? Any legumes? Does your diet have a name? Is it endorsed by an dietitian?

In the Century Study I'm in I am required to keep a detailed 3 day food and liquid diary once a year for review by a dietitian. I list everything I eat and drink, eating out is ok, then the dietitian breaks it down into calories from fat, protein and carbs and makes sure I eating enough variety of everything that is needed for nutrition. The diary contains how many tablespoons, ounces, cups and size of everything consumed. With this you can really tell where a eating problem is or why weight is not being lost. Amount of exercise is also calculated to determine if you are burning the calories taken in.

53 right now...high in the low 80's today...

72 outside this AM. Heading to lower 90's. Oppressive heat. Looks to be bad the remainder of the week. Got that lean to shed pile of wood under another lean to yesterday. Man did we sweat. Looks like enough wood for a nice wall and maybe two floors. Just need to clean it up a little and get the nails out.
Hope all have a great day. Take it slow today. Be safe.

Eric do you compost the corn starch plastic cups and forks or do they head to the landfill to decompose next to the forever plastic?

Julie couldn't bare for still perfectly good cups and forks be thrown away. She hand washed them afterwards and put them away for the next kids party, so it may be quite some time before they get to see a compost heap. I am going to plant one in the soil and see how it breaks down.
