I've not heard from Ruby and Murscclub for starting weights. Once I get those, I'll have a total combined weight for us all together. It looks like we will be around 2,500 total lbs.
I know sometimes I feel like I could eat a house, but I don't. I usually find something else that is much tastier. And easier to chew. There is a reason it is called drywall.

Black bean, corn and turkey chili (but I'm cheating by using a packed seasoning).
1 lb ground turkey browned with ½ onion (chopped) and 1 package seasoning for chicken tacos. Add to that 1 can 99% fat-free, low sodium chicken broth 1 can diced tomato 1 can black beans (drained & rinsed) 1 can corn (drained & rinsed) 1 cup chunky salsa. Stir & simmer until hot enough to eat...

I came home and did three sets of weights both arms and legs, and 25 minutes on the elliptical. Now I'm eating a VERY sour granny smith apple so I won't be so hungry for at supper time.
I can't believe what whimp I've become in my laziness. I used to be able to bench press 8-10 reps at 185 . . . now, I'm down to 155. Hopefully that will come back.
Just for kicks, go to weigh****chers.com as a guest. I've done the program loosely for four years and kept 30 pounds off. Yep, I've got abbs. Pretty good for a guy goin' on fifty.

The turkey chili was really good. Mr. DS is anti-turkey, but he said it's a keeper. Next time I won't drain & rinse the beans, and I'll cut down the broth to 3/4 can. It was not the consistancy I thought it should be and ended up thickening it with a little cornstarch & water. The taste was very yummy.

so, last night i took my little walk up the driveway after supper. well, it's dark out so i take the big mag-light, but end up not having to use it because the moonlight was enough for me to make my way. also, little bear tagged along, so i felt "safe".
i'm walking and i hear something crunching leaves in the trees, but figure it's one of the rabbits or possums i've been seeing around (hopefully not a skunk). anyhow, i make it to the top of the drive and start comming back down, little bear is up ahead of me, when suddenly, someone grabs me from behind. before i knew it, i had jerked around and somehow managed to kick his feet from under him, taking him to the ground and hit him upside the head (i thought) with the flashlight, and little bear is just standing beside me wagging his tail! in that same instance, i hear, "no! mom! oww! it's me, jacob!"
at first i was so mad i could spit nails! but then i was concerned that i gave him a concusion when i whacked him. turns out, he put his arms up as i swung, and i whacked his arm. he's gonna have a bruise and it serves him right for scaring pee out of me!
