Well.....

Yes, all is well, but not necessarily according strictly to our 5-5-5 plan....  I won't bore us with the sundry food items I have eaten (cashews, popcorn, Mary's Gone Crackers, a complete free catered dinner....) - Oh, I listed them anyway...., but I am gratefully and totally back on Day 5 of the purely juicing part.  The catered dinner 11-14 was delicious, and all was to have been gluten free except the rolls from which I abstained.  Even the cheesecake, I was told when inquiring, had nut crust, so was gluten free.....however.....it wasn't as presented.....  The intended cheesecakes for our group of less than 20 had been dropped (they called it a mishap) and replaced with store bought cheesecakes, delicious BTW, but made with graham cracker crust.    And so, not in a method of choosing, for 18 hours I was able to lose more weight frequently......  The caterer and hosts were sorry, but not as sorry as I.....  We also attended a Branson music show, SIX, but I couldn't stay seated all through it.  Sigh.  Was able to teach Zumba at the high school yesterday, though I was unsure till it went OK.  Fine now. 

Possibly found the green tea made by King Royal and suggested by Skinny Vic.  It states that it is "no caffeine added", whatever that means?   Doesn't say that any has been taken away either, though  :-)    It was an adventure to shop at a Korean market - lots of gift items also.  Purchased several bags of seaweed for soup and rice noodles for later.  They had some fresh produce. Found the tea at an Asian Market which had extensive frozen foods too.

Have just learned of a Well Fed Neighbor grocery store in nearby Springfield, MO and have yet to check out the brand new Hy-V grocery store further away in Springfield.  Mama Jean's was out of spinach last time I shopped and Wal*Mart's organic spinach is more expensive.  So, shopping potential indeed!

The leaves have turned red/orange on a small maple tree in the front yard and I can see a small bird's nest in it as high as it can be!  Breeze has the remaining leaves horizontal to the still green grass.

  1. Babs, I don't think my tea has any caffeine. Here is a good picture of my box.

    Sounds fun finding all the new stores. Oh, and read the descriptions under the picture. They kill me.

  2. Thank you, Skinny Vic, I did order some, good price until the postage is added, but VERY glad to locate this source. Yes, they wax eloquent in their descriptions :-)

    My original box is different in that it states: "no caffeine added"........ Interesting, sort of, lol.

    I'm off to walk our dog, this will be a training experience for us both.
