100% 8/24 My surgeon said I could wait. Its not that bad yet. I can still do everything.0

8/22 - 8/25 - 100%
WI: 302.2 (-1.0)
How have I not posted since the 22nd? Busy weekend, busy week and overtime coming up this weekend. I flexed a good bit this past weekend. But I watched my portions, but I know I was retaining fluid Monday from the restaurant food for lunch on Saturday. The scale was showing higher water weight%. But I really wasn't feeling it in my fingers so it wasn't too bad.

WI: 239.0 (-.2)
Weight done at Ideal Protein clinic, so coincides with start weight. My home scale was a lot nicer to me, especially yesterday it read 235.8 which would have been nice. Maybe too much seasoning on my steak. Still I'm feeling strong and it was down 3.0 since last time I was at the IP clinic and with a few glasses of wine in my cheat history last week, I'm going to call it successful. Onward and upward! Staying strong all week and clear through the weekend and hoping for a solid 4.0 loss next Wednesday.0 -

NSV last weekend too, I Bought some new Pocket Tees a size smaller and they fit .
Hi All
Still feeling Poorly, A bit better than Yesterday however. I looked in the refrigerator and decided to walk to the Produce Store for Fruits, Bananas, Tangerines, Apples, Also three things for my Brother. Total walk 1 mile + whatever in the Produce store and Dollar Store. It was not bad out until the Sun started coming out from behind the clouds. Just Sitting here listening to music from the war years, Marlene Dietrich, Vera Lynn, Vaughn Monroe etc.
Have a Good Thursday

Hi Roger
Restaurant Food (Diner) is the worst for causing water retention.
Congratulations on Losing a Pound despite, It takes me days to get back to where I was that morning from Diner Food and I work at eating proper there too.
Cheers

Hi Flo
I Think I'm feeling it more due to rarely catching things. Heck, I worked a retail location for 16 years and do not recall getting sick, Might have been once, But I am not remembering it if so.

So proud of myself. Went out to happy hour, had a diet coke, and a salad. I did try some artichoke hearts, they were awesome. And I stayed on plan. Woohoo!
Hope everyone is doing better with their colds, workloads and everything else.

Yeah, your resistance was up with Retail. Not so much now.
Feel better quickly, Roger.
Sorry about your ear, Ginny. Not fun.
Good job staying OP, D.
I have no idea how the Cards did last night, M. I saw the 1st 2 innings and crashed.

Hi All
Still somewhat under the weather but I walked anyway.......... It was so cool it was almost cold, Parts of NJ hit the 40s overnight, a nearby town was in the 50s. Shorts and a T-Shirt did not really cut it until I got warmed up and caffeinated.
Now I am officially tired
We pulled the fuel tank off of the Roto Tiller for cleaning, The Fuel was really old 10+ years and did not even smell anything remotely like gas. Picked up new fuel hose as the old hose was cracked and leaking. I believe it will be fine with new fuel as it did run on starting fluid. Hopefully I will not have to rebuild the carburetor too.
Don't forget, Only two more days to buy the $59.99 NS Gift Cards Via Costco
Have a Good Friday

Hi Ginny
I Wonder if that is what is happening to me? When I get up I hear noise like brisk breeze is blowing into the one ear, it clears up after I have been up for a while however. Then if I take a nap it is back when I get up, I sleep on one side and not the back or other side.
If that is what is happening to You I could understand it bothering You!!
Have a Good Day

Hi Flo
I always worried when I worked retail. It amazed me how many people came in with that Deep Raspy Cough!
You would think that with better BP, FSB, Activity level and more I would be more resistant, Not less

Hi All
I went walking this morning, Weather was nice and cool, It does not feel like August, Nearby town was in the 50s overnight.
Feeling Somewhat better today, still not 100%
Have a Great Weekend

I'm still out here. Fires all around us. We were under evacuation level 2 for over a week and upgraded to level 1 now. Finally unpacked clothes, but high winds tonight and tomorrow so I may be repacking. Fires still burning and wind will make them whip up and run. The smoke has us in "hazardous" air quality and has been that way for weeks. Killer on my COPD and keeps me indoors with N95 respirator mask. Seeing surgeon Tue after CT of shoulder and may have to have a total reversal shoulder replacement. So you see, my life is upside down and out of my control in many ways. Will monitor when I can. If I have to have surgery,the recovery is extremely lengthy.0

08/29/2015 Not 100%
Weigh In was 2.5 pounds lost
It seems that the extra walk to compensate for the not 100% worked
Semi Long Story involving a New Asian Food Take Out & Brother
Hi All
Feeling somewhat better each day so far.
In Addition to walking Yesterday Morning, After a Not 100% Day I decided to walk in the Evening too. So Saturday ended up being early Morning & Evening walks, each 2.75 miles. Then I walked this morning another 2.75 miles. The weather was warm last night and comfortable this morning. Since We seems to be heading into above average temperatures for today and the next 4 days I suspect that today was the last nice morning for a little while. I am officially tired now.
Have a Really Good Sunday

Hi Canyon Dweller
It sounds as if You have been having problems lately, Bad Air, Shoulder and then worries about fires.
I hope things get better for You quickly
Good Luck

Hi Ginny
Not as Happy as I am
At least You can ban Popcorn How Do You ban a brother that You share the house with?
Have You tried the NS popcorn? Or would you open more than one bag at a time. I like the white cheddar somewhat better than the regular popcorn FWIW.
Good Luck at WI

8/30 I will call it NOT 100%, I stayed under my calories, but I did have ice cream for a birthday celebration for my former MIL. At least I did not eat the chocolate indulgence cake.0

Good job on the 2.5 pounds, Roger.
100% 8/30 WEIGH IN: unchanged
No loss/no gain again. Just can NOT shed that last 1 pound with my travels. Gracious.0 -
W/I 201.4 gain of 1.4, not a happy camper0

8/28 through 8/30 - Not 100%
WI = 235.5
Red days are more like yellow and most with not enough water or vegetables, or too many calories of a good thing... Feeling exhausted on prednisone with 7 more days left... Can't wait to get off it; always makes me feel funky messing with my mood... But sure does get rid of arthritis symptoms with no back tightness/stiffness...

Hi All
I Walked again this morning 2.75 Miles & 25 cents, warm at 76 degrees, Dew Point in the 70s making it humid too.
We worked on the Roto Tiller yesterday, New Fuel line, flushed the tank. Runs on a prime in the carburetor only. It looks like I need to order a rebuild kit for the Carb. Not totally unexpected, it sat for over 10 years with fuel in the tank, My brother forgot to run it dry when it was put away. Oh Well
Have a Really Great Monday

Hi Flo
Thank You for the kind words, the skeptic in me thinks that this weeks loss will be somewhere between Zero, Nil, None, Not at all and not much to compensate
It sounds to me as if it could have been worse.
Good Luck

Hi
OTOH You stayed under on calories even with the Treat and avoided the cake.
It is the start of the new week, Good Things will happen for all of us.
Good Luck

Hi Mary
I think we all have those not 100% days, Miss a snack or vegetables or water and realize too late to fix it.
Good Luck
