Parade was great but happy to go home now. Went into city with friends they drove us and we took the subway from queens into NYC. Going home I am taking, right now sitting on it, the express bus from NYC to where I live in Queens with my parents Bc they parked by me to go home. I will walk from bus to my apt - 10 min.
Was in city from around 11:30 till 5. Long day! Parade was nice and got a hat :-)

I had a slider of beef burger with pesto sauce small bun 400 tops, green cooked Swiss chard very nice 150, heavier sautéed eggplant and sauce of course 200?, some of dad's food 100?, and tastes of ice cream and mom's lentil burger 100.

Overall, I'm feeling really, really great.
My mom may join my dad at the parade - if so, I'll eat with them after it's finished for lunch in the city to celebrate my bday - then go home & relax - maybe laundry on Saturday while home :-D so i don't have to do it Sunday lol...
And Sunday = gym & maybe small food shopping....
No big plan. And very happy about it. I'd say a parade is big anyways!
Happy Friday Fran & thanks for your kind words! So appreciated!
This year a am SO MUCH STRONGER and almost there to being as close to 100% as I will be by the summer----i was so happy to go to the parade...because I was ABLE TO. I am so thankful to G-D i was able to walk in it...really :)
This week will have to have higher cals...because it seems that limiting them (as i want to do) is working to the opposite effect on me...the structure and demands i'm putting on myself is making me want to eat more....so....dealing.
Digestion is also very off this week : / ....oh well. I need to maybe buy Kombucha tonight in order to have a stronger drink tomorrow morning...and also, must get up earlier bc there's more traffic on the roads as NYC schools started today.

Good Morning HOP! You're so motivating! Can't wait till I'm 3 lbs from goal! Have a great day!
Seems #115 is hard enough...i know for a fact, based on previous experience around 10 yrs ago, that it took serious commitment to maintain #112. So, I like to keep this goal lower, in hopes to get there & have a happy medium around #115 and when i reach #112...that's it...no lower.
puddles on 09/10/2016:
Hope you feel better and it does not ruin your weekend. Have a good one.
i was actually better yes the morning after the parade (sore throat was less!) but very tired. Seems going out was ok!
hollybelle on 09/10/2016:
Have a good day at the parade.
It was hot & sweaty...and went well :)
