A Hobbit Marathon and Planning the August Party

A Work Day: Organizing Photos for Mark

Scale shows a quarter pound loss. I had a big work day. I had to categorize some pictures for Mark and send by email. Harley helped.

More Than a Weight Loss Blog

This isn't just a blog about a weight loss journey. It's a blog about a woman's life and the relationships within that life. One's partner and the ensuing relationship is a huge factor where food and diet are concerned.

My Sister's Healthy Eating Plan

My sister decided to go on a healthy eating and exercise plan sponsored by Alberta Health Services. Her husband decided to go on the plan too. It's working for them! They are losing weight very slowly and keeping their muscles firm. Harley is not interested in dieting.

Planning the August Friend Party with Cindy

I needed a break, so I went to see Cindy. It's her last day of vacation. I told her that our friend, Sueshiela was closing down her liquor store. I had been there the other day. The place was full of customers. I knew all of them, so I told Cindy about the conversations I had. I surmised that we would patronize the old liquor store, where a mutual friend works. I told Cindy that I was going to invite Sueshiela to our August 22 friend party. We developed a menu.

A Hobbit Movie Marathon

Back home. I tried to do more work organizing the pictures for Your Weight Loss Companion. I went downstairs to speak with Harley. He was watching The Hobbit. Smaug was describing himself in metaphors to Bilbo Baggins, which ended in my breath, death!  I was hooked. I decided I needed a break. After The Desolation of Smaug, I watched The Battle of the Five Armies. Harley took some time off of the last movie to take Chewy for a walk, sit with him and comb him out.

Harley's Pasta Dinner

Harley made a pasta dish made with cubed leftover steak, elbow macaroni, pasta sauce and spinach topped with Parmesan served with red wine. Harley waited on me. I had a small serving of food. After the wine was consumed, I opted for Caffeine Free Diet Coke. I hope I am rewarded with some weight loss in the morning.
