We went crabbing (got a big bucket of blue crabs) and then dug clams this afternoon. Got plenty of both for dinner.

pamzimmrrt: Our daughter got the steamed crabs and cream of crab soup from the local Fifer's Seafood. Very good that you enjoyed the same in addition to lobster. Too early in the season for crabs to be running good right now. Have a friend who is a fulltime outdoorsman and even he cannot get a lot. That, of course, dictates price.

Yes, I did recall that you, too, reside in Maryland.😀

earlybird - you're doing so good with such discipline, too.

I was doing really good with my exercise last year and just got lazier and lazier. I am starting it again and eating lighter.

LLama hubs bought crab legs, shrimp and 2 lobsters for fathers day.. I had to work but he made "cream of crab soup" with the lobster tail (mom ate the other lobster) and he and mom said its wonderful. He used the old bay recipe ( we are in Maryland) I plan to have some tonight!! I can't believe the price of a bushel of crabs right now!!

Willie, it's hard to resist isn't it? I have been walking more and sometimes I justify having a goodie afterward cause I've walked. But I guess that's defeating the whole purpose of walking I guess. Dang it!

I picked up a turkey bacon club as I was passing by Tim's on my daily walk (mmmm, bacon). While I was waiting for my order I watched them making tons of delicious looking iced coffee drinks for the people in the drive through (one had whipped topping and caramel 🤤), but I was strong!

Beatty, thanks for posting your weekly diet. Vegetable soup sounds good. I am going to try and skip a meal, but I might need a light snack in the afternoon. Good job for the week. Glad you felt great and will continue. Keep it up, it gets better, more energy, mood is better, losing weight slowly and craving more healthy foods. Drinking more water too.
