Looks great  

Caldo de pollo (chicken vegetable soup), beans, spanish rice, cinnamon tea and yellow cake wirh chocolate icing and almonds. 😋 

Oh and pork tamales. 😋  

Thank you Buenita. I am being good, filling up on the good nutritious food before the sweets. 👍😊 

Ok ok spill the beans!!! Where do you live??? I already left, if you hide, I’ll be lost!!! 😂😂😂😂 

Save some tamales for me you guys! 

que rico tamales 😋🤤😏 

Hi there! I’m turning 60 next week and I have chronic pain in my feet so everything takes me a bit longer too. I’ve decided to cico and I’m just hoping for slow and steady. I’ve promised myself that quitting isn’t an option. Wishing you all good things on your journey. 

Wifey, you crack me up! 🤣 We are in Las Cruces, with Joe's brother for a few days. He made the soup and rice. So delicious! I made fideo, (vermicelli) but I doubt we will eat any. Too much food for the 3 of us, so you are more than welcome. 😊 

Kenna, I will. We have another dozen at home. They are the best we've had in New Mexico. A lady that one of our neighbors knows makes them only for Christmas. Our neighbor called us when we were in California during the holiday and paid for them and saved them in her freezer for us until we got home. When we went to pay her, she only let us pay for half of the order, because the rest was her gift to us. We have the best neighbors, just like you. 💗 

Almost there!! 😓 I WISH!!!! I’d certainly help eat this food. Never had a tamale but I’m sure I’d love several!! 😋😋😋 

Finchbird, hello. ❤ Yes, gaining health is doable, just takes some extra figuring out. If standing is hard, there's a guy Justin Agustin, that shares alternative exercises. He's on Instagram and I believe on Youtube. When I was my heaviest (185lbs.) I couldn't stand on my feet for longer than an hour without my feet burning with pain. That pain completely left when I lost some weight. I hope the same will happen for you. Have that no quitting attitude is key, so I know you'll do fine. 👍💕 

Wifey, I need to PM you. Hopefully in a couple of days. My laptop is out of commission, so I will try to use Joe's tablet. I have to find a way to get you some tamales! 🫔 ⬅️ I can't believe there's an emoji for tamales. 😁 

You’re a doll. Thank you so much for the info and support. 

Wow!! What a spread! 

Thank you Angela. A lot of food is going into my BIL's freezer! 😁 

Aww, finchbird that's what we're hear for. 💕 

Oh sweet Becky. You are so precious. I’ll be looking for your message. 💝🤗 

looks delicious 

I used to work with a woman whose mother made tamales at Christmas time, always bought some, so delicious!
