  1. I lost 30 pounds with keto 3 years ago. I felt amazing, and the weight came off easily over about 3 months. I loved that I was almost never hungry and once I figured out my favorite meals, I just rotated them. A word of caution….after I lost the weight I discovered Coke Zero (I work long hours on the night shift) and gained back about 5 pounds! Dropped the Coke and the weight fell off!
  2. Before going keto I always (many, many years) had a bowl of oatmeal in the morning. I failed to find a similar keto replacement so now I just drink coffee with heavy cream and make lunch my first meal of the day.
  3. Have her blow up balloons….it expands the lungs and gets the air moving.
  4. Thank you for posting this! I bought a pair of possum mittens years ago when I traveled to New Zealand and they are, by far, the warmest mittens/gloves I’ve ever owned and they have held up amazingly well. I think I’m going to have to buy some of these socks.
  5. As requested, here’s some photos. I didn’t do a “before” one of the entire space…….still have to put on the crown molding across the top and the hardware but this gives you an idea.
  6. I recently sanded my oak cabinets. They are made from red oak and we’re stained a cherry color. After I sanded them, I used Zinsser wood bleach which took the pink color out of them then I sealed them with a matte, water based poly acrylic by Minwax. I love the finished product!
  7. I make my cold brew in a French press. No mess at all!!!
  8. Every year we get the biggest tree we can find. Decorations are what my kids have made through the years and then each year they each select a new ornament from the store.
  9. I had mine transferred at Costco, it’s been a number of years though so not sure if they still do it.
  10. I discovered Newton running shoes about 5 years ago and I LOVE them!
  11. I'm a nurse working 12 hour shifts at the hospital and I LOVE my Dansko professional clogs.
  12. Our trip to D.C. is $900 this year; price varies every year depending on hotel, tour company, meals.....so many different thing affect the cost.
  13. I bought my Danskos for nursing school off ebay. I tried them on in the store first then looked online for a great deal. Super comfortable and a great price. I plan on buying a new (not white) pair for work, and their so comfortable I'm even willing to pay full price.
  14. I started with various dumbbells, and a long step with 5 risers for each side to use as a bench for chest work. I later added a barbell and exercise ball. I also have exercise bands in various tensions, tubing in different tensions, a weighted vest and gloves. I use exercise videos by cathe friedrich.
  15. I loved All My Children, I was so sad when it ended.
  16. I have 4 kids 7-13 years old. All are at a private school for the last 2 years. I will complete my bachelors degree in nursing in 2 months. It's been so much work but I've loved it. I'm planning on working full time after graduation. I'm 40 years old. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
  17. My whole family loves Pioneer Woman's recipe for Crash Hot Potatoes.
  18. Median income $109,464; COL index 102.
