How is all that low carb food eating going for you Sally....I gave up when the holidays hit and put it all back on...

family is of no help,,,,,hubby being a traditional farm boy insist that meals be meat and potato....and I can not have potato in front of me and not eat it.

I did lose about 15 pounds just from cutting junk food and soda, but then started drinking for the holidays and mixed drinks just do not taste right with diet soda.
15 lbs is 15 lbs wing, awesome!

I try to cut back on the diet soda because of the sweetener and its ill effects. I dropped alot of what I packed on during sept oct and nov and then stood still for several weeks on the LowCarbHighFat diet, and NO I didnt buy all that MTC oil and stuff, I am just too cheap. I am going to remove myself from the page at some point, there is something going on with the recipes and the new site the admin is starting, I DO NOT want involved but I am nosey enough to watch lol. I took everyone I posted off the page too. Admin is very smart, but just annoys with the pushing stuff and acting like your dumb if you dont do it HIS way. whatever.

Anyways I was eating alot of crap food for almost three weeks in december and didnt gain but 2 lbs I was shocked back on the diet and on the scale, I will take it!!! lol so I hunkered down and back on less than 15 carbs a day and I feel good. If I like to excersise or if a gym was close to these boonies I would be dangerous! I have to drive at least 40 min to hit the gym. not gonna happen. I was so mad they closed the one I went to. It was always empty my kinda gym, guess thats y they closed eh? ha ha
 
but I put all 15 back on with the holidays....

my neighbor goes to a gym that is only 2 blocks away,,, he has a key card for the door so he goes in the middle of night when no one is there...........not for me though, I would rather just go for a walk in nature than a stuffy gym.....I could walk the block around the farm, it would be 4.2 miles.....would be a nice walk on the right kind of day. and only 3 blocks would be on main street..
 
dumb question.... who did you guys pop off this PA thread that there are so many "guests" reading? lol I never seen guests on this one before! very strange!
If I go to my daughters house on my in laws I will read up as a guest instead of signing on.....just a thought..
 
My layers went in to the coop to lay so I shooed the youngsters in too & closed the pop door. 18 here & very windy so I caved in & closed them in. Now comes the real test of whether or not they will get along while being awake & confined. There has actually been very little pecking so far, much less than I expected however I don't think the confinement together is going be be as good. I'll try to give them stuff to keep them occupied but I don't have much here to do that with, only dried meal worms & oats. Prior to bedtime for them, I'll try to give them some cooked oatmeal & see how that works. The younger girls never got many if any treats or scraps it seems like as they aren't real good at pecking things apart. Could be that they don't feel like they have the time to do it since the older gals go after what they have when they start pecking it sometimes. They do like scratching for the oats outside though & the older ones leave them alone to do that pretty much. I have 2 feeders & 2 waterers in the coop, hope that helps. I have them as far apart as I can.
 
I guess its just us crazy people in Lancaster county, but I'm letting mine open as well. I suppose if they survive I have strong birds, if not, I'll have to deal with that in a few days. They should be able to huddle and stay warm. I hope.
The fog last night was horrible! Really glad I know these roads in the country! I know those who ride motorcycle hate those little reflectors on the highway, but they were a godsend for the highway portion of my drive last night.


Glad you're ok, the roads were bad here too.

Sgtmom52 n CrazyRay...Welcome Back!

I have been busting my butt (and back) outside today getting the coops n runs in shape for the cold. Mostly taking out nasty bedding and putting in dry. I've raked out the runs and am going to put dry straw down. My chooks will be out tomorrow, the only change I'm making is to close the windows in the coops, I've also added more bedding than I usually do. I am taking a soup break and admiring my my chooks. Hope you're all warm.
 
i recently bouught a bread machine and am completely into it making a loaf a day giving 1/2 away when need be so that i can make another one! is there any known cure for this!!!!!:P

I have no idea how to get to Zelienople, or I would say, be right there.


I'll pick you up.


Am I the only one so happy our Sally is back?


Me too! Me too!!

Apparently I need to get my priorities in order. I bought a few more tarps today and set about fastening them on runs. I normally do the hardest job first...which would be the roof tarp, but my thinking was...that roof may not hold me, I should put the tarps on the walls first in case I fall through the roof and have to go to the hospital. Seriously? When did this happen to me....

I have the need to get a chicken/ & possible Dog Breeding website up, anyone into that sorta stuff? I am pretty good with the puter stuff but a website not sure on how to link it up for traffic and such. And lack of budget is an issue. so a fairly cheap site that has the opportunity to link up with other search engines and stuff... thoughts are appreciated!
