i'm still craving salty snacks at night

waiting for the craving to go away

i laugh at my brother bc they eat a lot of chips and the like

when we have go shopping - i say - i dont buy chips

once in a while but not really

then this summer - there were some sales must buy 3 for the huge discount

so i started eating them... and everytime i see a big sale - i will buy

i have to lose that craving

i still eat sweets but i'm moving more - 

sunny and low 50s and i will be walking....

@Yahooey : Thank you. @cowboy sam : in a league of one...... She is way ahead of us.

Should have gone to Walmart this morning  for refund , but no extra energy.

I need to clean and reorganize the refrigerator for next week. I am relieved that it will just be the two of us for Thanksgiving, we will eat on paper plates ,in the den and in our recliners enjoying watching tv.

u have been spending a lot of time w/pancake

u are made of sturdy stuff.... 

stretching pic

sometimes it happens - shortcuts on the remote or whatever

and it takes me forever to find the right - setting  to revert back

do u have the same TV - how would u know how to fix it

usually it is settings and scroll - scroll - scroll

we both have Dish Network satalite dish...so our  basic channels are the same...but i  pay more to get" more channels" then she does!    I like to watch mine in HD mode! She doesn't  see the difference that HD mode makes the picture more colorful,etc

Both our  remote controls are simular..but when she picks up her control.. i belive her finger is on... the "Formate button"..and she had it  "stretching" the picture of program she was watching,or putting   it on "zoom."..instead of regular mode!

I noticed it   as she was switching her channel  and tried to show her how to change it back! 

So, yesterday..she must have accidently hit/pressed button again...and when she called me...i was told" i "had put it on stretching  mode for the picture...

She appartenly knows nothing about how to use her remote...  or..

"I"   really think that she has forgotten how!

  to use her remote control.

Things like this sometimes make wonder about her and possible early demtia...like her backing up and came so close to hitting her tree in front of her house...afterwards she said if her daughters knew they would take her car keys from her...and  she laughed!

lubs ya!

I was also put on lower dose of 50 mcg for my thryoid....hope it helps you...

will you need to be retested like in 3 months to have it rechecked?

"We" believe in you and this will happen   as you continue on this journey...

@Yahooey : These two items have helped me cut back on craving for something salty and crunchy. I put one teaspoon of water in the bottom of the corn popper( someone on the forums suggested this : to keep popcorn from being tough , can't remember correct term but it does help), then add the pop corn kernels and pop for 3 minutes. After popping, I add just a little salt and nothing else. I eat this when DH is eating his bag of chips. Just a suggestion.😊 I use the white popcorn kernels.

@cowboy sam : Hope it isn't early dementia for your sister.

@SouthernBee 

i do like cheese popcorn and kettlecorn but avoid it bc those darn kernals

not worth the effort -

glad u are enjoying ur snack

sis..picked me up around noon  to go for lunch..but we needed to wait on her neighbor...so once  again she said i needed her to help with the remote control....but i tried  and she still isn't happy  as she doesn't like hd used...

i finally told her to ask her grandson Thanksgiving day to try to get it done  the way she wants her tv shows to look like!!

Her reply was..he wouldn't know how...duh...yes he would!

ok..i had grilled chicken fingers  and ff  and2 glasses of coke  today...and now do i eat fried pork rhinds...or toast/peanutbutter w/cinnomon?

lubs ya!
