Here is my check in for 1/3/17. I am hoping to be able to do this every day even though I may not have much to say, but this thread is about encouragement. I awoke this morning, put on my workout clothes and went outside and did my 30 minute walk.

I am being mindful of my food intake, and trying to clear out items in the house. I plan on grocery shopping in a few days, and my basket will be junk free. One of the things that I know about myself is that I can't have junk food in the house. If it's here I will eat it.

@icezeus I just got home from my walk as well. It feels good doesn't it? Please check in often...just to chat. I am a lot like you...out of sight out of mouth! Fill your pantry full of good things so the choices you make can be nothing but good!

I am tickled pink you are adopting more & more of
the Plant Based Lifestyle! And I am humbled by your words.
Thank you so much.

Honestly?

I hesitate to do an ‘Opinion Piece’ to answer your questions
on the way of eating I’ve chosen. IMO, this thread is not about that.
My gut says, once the doors open for strong & opposing popular
opinions, IMO the thread will kinda/sorta lose the uplifting intentions
I believe you have for this thread.

I will respond, but within the “Plant-Based News” thread.
How’s that?
That way the thread won’t stray with opposing viewpoints.
Out of respect to you, I wish to keep your thread as supportive
as possible!!!

See you over in the Plant-Based News thread....🌼💛🌼

@sidsmom 0h, did not mean to offend. Please forgive me! I was truly interested in your opinion as I value it. I just felt like perhaps if I learned more about your chosen way of eating, I could make the jump and commmit to that. I think I am very close to making such a choice.

I think your idea of a plant based diet thread is terrific! I will be over there and learn more at that time.

Thankyou for sharing on this thread as well. People are interested in your knowledge

@SeaMaiden

Nononono! It’s all good.

This is a lovely thread ‘project’ you started...and we know (in the past) differing viewpoints can lead to ‘heated’ discussions..! I don’t want anything to interfere with your uplifting thread! Now, come’on...meet you in Plant Based News!

I almost didn't log in here today, because I needed to do some more Mayo Clinic Diet reading and journal entry, plus additional research for recumbant bikes with my husband. And, make a multi-day lunch.

Well, I logged on and now don't know that I'll be back.

Just read the entries in the last 18 or so hours and you'll come to know what I'm talking about. All of a sudden a person has created discord, which was carried through to additional posts.

That's not what I came here for. If this continues, I'm gone.

@SeaMaiden

The Plant Based News Thread has been around for a few months (or longer).

Lots of discussion of plant based eating.

I also have a plant based thread I began in July when I decided to go stricly plants.

I don't think we need a NEW thread on the topic. Those of us interested in that way of eating just keep adding to those threads.

Today, I got some exercise and ate healthy. Dinner will be 2 vegetables and a portion of fillet of sole. A small salad to accompany my meal. I weighed in this morning and 2 pounds are gone. I thank everyone here for motivating me.

Salmon, tuna, tilapia, etc. are great sources of the Omega 3's and 6's consiered so important for cardiac health. This link might provide info on plant-based foods that provide a good source of omega 3, etc. fatty acids. You could, of course, also take a supplement.

Ignore it and do you. Remember why you decided to join this thread. Look at the overwhelming support and don't focus on the detours that might come our way. Continue to research and post/share your findings and support that you have to offer with the group.

@icezeus @sfnative If it was I who caused the discord I am Truly sorry.

Was it my asking about the plant based diet? I guess I had questions and should have went to the plant based thread. It is good that you say something so we stay on track. I hope you stay and help keep this thread from taking detours as you said. We need your involvement to do this. Have a great night!

Checking in with everybody. DH and I were in NYC today. My tracker registered 12,453 steps. And right now I am relaxing on the couch

Steps were good but my first gulps of water were at 3 pm and nothing much after that. I own this, it is all my fault.

Hope everyone had a great day.

Sometimes the strength within you is not a big fiery flame for all to see. It is just a tiny spark that whispers ever so softly "You Got This - Keep Going"

@Trinity11

This person has caused negativity for eons on the boards and I simply cannot go near it any longer. Need to wait and see.

I'm glad you had a really good day. Tomorrow we're going to ******'s Sports, etc., to purchase a Schwinn Model 270 recumbant exercise bike. I can't wait to get on it and get going!!!!!! And, my wide shoes will finally fit, as it has a wider and long foot pedal. Yay! Just that and the larger and nicely padded seat were sellers, aside from all of the bells and whistles, electronic-wise.

We're having spinach and whole wheat lasagna tonight for dinner. I know I'm going to love it, but my husband will complain all the way. I'll send him to the dungeon with a "Huzzah!" to boot.
