Tying Up Loose Ends Tuesday

lantern festival
  
We are working on getting back to normal, or at least or new normal.  Everyday is different around here, with an array of doctor's appointments for both my mom and dad.  Mom is definitely getting stronger and is able to do more around the house.  She starts her radiation treatments tomorrow so we shall see  how much that is going to affect her strength.   We see her primary oncologist today and I a few questions written down to ask her.  We also see her radiation oncologist tomorrow and I will be asking him the same questions too.    I think tomorrow I will post the questions I asked and their answers.... might be interesting. 


  Yesterday marks the start of yet another challenge. I have joined Erika at Newlyweds On A Budget Weight Loss Challenge.  The goal is too lose at least 10 pounds in 12 weeks.  In order to help me keep track of my calories I have started using LiveStrong Calorie Tracker.  There is also an app for your phone ($2.99) that helps you to figure out and track your calories, water consumption and calories burned with exercise.  It is a great way to keep track, and easy to use. 


Yesterday I did list some items on Craigslist to sell.  Mostly vintage Christmas decorations....  





 You never know what people will buy..... and hopefully someone will want these items.

I use Livestrong to track my wieght/cals (and the app). Hubby bought me the annual subscription for Christmas because mine had expired. I love it. I'm much better at stick to my calories when I track everything. Good luck!

It is a great app! You can find almost any kind of food on it and track the calories.

Lisa, I pray your mom does well with the radiation... It is very hard on your body, I saw my mom go through cancer treatments...

Good luck with the challenge & your Craigslist items.
