I understand the food issues. I too have changed my way of eating and am wondering how I'm going to approach the season this year. I'm trying to form a plan now, lol!

Everyone seems to be in the mood for Christmas early this year which I think is good! I love your photos of poinsettias growing in their natural habitat. I've never seen that before; here, they are always in pots because they generally don't survive. I know I've never been able to keep one alive until the next Christmas season!

Thank you for sharing and have a lovely day!

Hi, the same thing happened to me when I tried to preserve Christmas plants. No matter how many experts recommended they ended up wilting. This one, which we have planted in the ground, came from a cutting from a neighbor's plant. I think it is a more resistant subspecies. I hope your diet is not due to health problems, if so, I hope you get better. Thank you very much @elizabethbit, happy weekend 💜

Hi @elentogether! I won't call this a 'diet' because it is a lifestyle change. I haven't really eaten healthy pretty much my entire life. Lately, having not enough time to really cook plus a 'kitchen' challenge of not having a real stove, it's been too easy to grab prepackaged food and just microwave dinner! Not a good thing with all the additives they tend to put in all that stuff.

So, I'm trying to eat more whole foods and if it's prepackaged, a healthier version. I've really started paying attention to what the labels say and trying to 'clean up my food act' accordingly.

It is working; I've lost 18 pounds since July in just doing this. I am happier and feel much better than I have in a long time. I want to live to a ripe old age and the road I was on was not helping me to try to achieve this.

As for the Poinsettia, they wouldn't survive in the ground here anyway, so as a potted plant is the only way it might. Thus far, I've failed miserably , lol!

Thank you for responding and have a lovely day!🤗💜 !LADY

Hello @elizabethbit, I congratulate you and am very happy that you have changed your eating habits and lost weight. It requires a great deal of willpower to achieve this, in my case I did it out of necessity because several times I thought I was going to die. I think you should insist on keeping the Christmas plants in a greenhouse or a large pot to protect them from the cold. Thank you, friend 🤗.
