@AlexCurtisSlep That looks tasty sir.

I don’t believe I’ve ever had one.

Yesterday I walked the most steps I have done in the last few years, which was 22,134 steps or 10.14 miles over two walks. The most since the main part of the pandemic.

@davetroy Well done, and I miss their smoked whitefish and smoked egg salad since moving away from the area DC.

@LeslieBradshaw @BradshawPinot @KingEstate Good luck and have fun.

@engineering_bae That looks tasty.

If you never tried the Japanese purple sweet potatoes or Stoke purple sweet potatoes you should. I found them at Whole Foods (they typically are in sales before Thanksgiving) or larger Asian grocery stores like H Mart.

In the last year I have now lost 75.4 lbs or about .2 lbs per day.

I managed to do this without dieting by better food choices, smaller portions, more fruits, vegetables, etc. Then once in a while a slice of pizza, chicken wings, donuts, etc. Wanted to enjoy myself some.

@penfriendrocks You’re welcome. I’m doing alright.

@corbett3000 Have fun in Martha’s Vineyard sir.

I was there in the 80s.

While there ride the Flying Horse Carousel built in 1876.

It had a ring grab as you went around and you attempted to grab as many rings as possible with your fingers.

If you grabbed the brass ring you got a free ride.

Happy Mother’s Day to all that are celebrating.

[John F Croston III @jfc3]

@LeslieBradshaw Wow. Hard to believe. I’m a few months short of 19 years.

[John F Croston III @jfc3]

As of today I’m down 55 lbs, since the Tuesday after Labor Day to 299.4 lbs.

I have done this by walking, more fruits and vegetables, better snack choices, smaller portion sizes, and healthier meals.

@SteveOfMaine I have seen your tweets, but I’m spending less time on here each day. So I only tend to like things and not respond. Guess I need to try hard for those posting when I can. Hope all is well.
