TOPS Pledge and Nature Friday

 


TOPS PLEDGE (TOPS, take off pounds sensibly)

I am and intelligent person,
I will control my emotions,
not let my emotions control me.
Every time I am tempted to use food
to satisfy my frustrated desires,
build up my injured ego or dull my senses,
I will remember -
I WILL TAKE OFF POUNDS SENSIBLY.



Sword Fern and Asparagus Ferns and

Begonias for Rosy on

Hello,
I like your new header photo. The fern and flowers are so pretty, I am looking forward to spring time blooms here. Take care, have a great day!

Advice given by a doctor I knew many years ago for the best diet - never eat at an all-you-can-eat buffet and never have seconds (what you put on your plate the first time is adequate). He said those actions combined with a modest walk every day would keep your weight stable for life.

That's a good word for all of us. Moderation and discipline.
Love the bright begonias.
Mark's wife Kellie is in the ER for an intense kidney stone attack. Dr. says there is 1 huge stone and several smaller ones. They are waiting for a consult with her urologist to decide the next steps. She has so many other issues which have to be taken into consideration. Prayers appreciated.
Glad she was ok while down here for our anniversary.

I like their pledge. Thanks for sharing the ferns and the asparagus ferns. We have ferns but Mark got tired of the asparagus ones. The begonia looks great!

I'm clipping and pasting that pledge! So down to earth and sensible ... so why do I keep shooting myself in the foot?

I can't remember if I told you before, but I love the new header. A lot!

Wasn’t it Weight Watchers that said, Eat to Live not Live to Eat?

I just looked it up - it was Benjamin Franklin who said that.
