The Old Folks Home

Good point about the building and it's possible connection to @CapricornFarm's shoulder problems. Tendonitis is caused by repetitive motions to a joint. Lots of other maladies also.

Sun chips and mini rice cakes....glad to know somebody besides me is enjoying, or not enjoying in my case the styrofoam and cardboard chip diet.:sick

Husband was naming off my favorite foods recently. I just kept saying, nope, no, can't eat that one either, nope, nada....But keep my weight stable.....on a diet of styrofoam and cardboard chips....oh and bananas...I can eat bananas.:hit

6 months ago I was determined to lose weight and have, having started at 148 pounds and now down to 125. I don't want to go below 120 but now am at a loss as to how to keep things stable. I can eat Breyers natural ice cream and frozen yogurt along with light ice cream. But the diet is so confusing. One site will say eat this and another will say, don't eat that! DH suggested I talk to a dietician and I just might request that if the blood work says gout for certain.
Use my fitness pal for calorie calculations. Keep the calories at the level you need to maintain the weight.

The big secret is to eat a balanced diet--there is an app that goes along with the fitness app that will tell you what you need to eat to get the nutrition you need.

It really does not matter what you eat as long as you stay at the correct calorie level and have good nutrition

Went on a Holiday Light Train ride with DH on Friday night. It was nice, not too cold. Half-mile of light displays about 35 minutes from our house. We went last year with a couple of our children and grandchildren but was nice just the two of us.

Sounds like fun. We used to drive around in FL in our neighborhood to see lights. Some people really go all out!
 
Our small city (pop. 2400) park will have lighted displays that we will be able to drive-thru starting this Saturday. It is the first year for it so expectations aren't too high. I'm sure it will be better next year when more donations come in to fund more displays.
Our Christmas Walk is this Saturday. It has gotten to be a well-planned and well-attended event in the past few years. There is a trolley ride that takes people around town for different events being held throughout the town so it is not restricted to just our downtown. Looking forward to it even if the high temp on Saturday is suppose to be 22F!
