She's ba-ack! Or at least trying to be. I have got to get my food and exercise act together. Soccer starts Saturday and ROTC has an event every week except one between now and the end of April.
Goals: 28 green days and 20 exercise days.

I was hungry all day today. It's not the greatest start to the month, but it's done and logged. Moving on.0 -
@MelissaPhippsFeagins welcome back!!
I'm going to set an extremely modest goal of 15 green days. I've been logging, but keep forgetting to finish my day on here! I have gotten back to my normal weight (before various meds made me all bloated pre surgery). And that is holding steady, so I guess I've done ok!
Yesterday was green. 1/15
For exercise still waiting to get cleared so I'm just going to keep plugging away at riding through stationary bike and trying to heal. Bigger and better plans for next month

Exercise, yes! Biked again. I've been able to increase my time this week. Working up from 25 to 35 mins. Pretty pleased considering I'm 3 weeks out from surgery. I also went back to work for a half day today. I've been working from home this week, but had to go in for some meetings. Feeling pretty good, no problems. Will see how I feel tomorrow (it's 7:30 and I'm positive it has to be about midnight based on how sleepy I am. Lol!!)0 -

Ok, can I just whine a bit and say enough? Had to go back to the podiatrist today for a second cortisone shot since my foot is still bothering me. I've been off it, no running etc, and followed Dr's orders w everything. Dr now thinks it may be a nerve impingement issue and if it's still not improved after my 3rd shot in a couple weeks I may need.... surgery! Aaaah!!!!
just feeling frustrated. I do think things happen for a reason and maybe a big ol'lesson in patience is what I'm learning now. On the plus side my deductible for the year is totally met, lol! 0 -

Also got a walk in! Took it slow, but loving the 7o degree day here! Also woke up with the word "adapt" in my mind so pity party over, I'm going to just keep plugging along. Seem to be fairly well healed from my surgery so if I end up needing foot surgery, I'll just work on upper body! Oh, and I can also just keep knitting. My ponchos almost done.

@MelissaPhippsFeagins It must be nice to have so many calories to use when needed. Oh, the delicious things I could eat for 600. Can someone say Big Boy's Hot Fudge Cake?? 
@bbinoa Glad you woke up with the word adapt in your mind. You're a fighter, and you've already proven that not even surgery can take you out. You've got this!!!0 -
@bbinoa just keep knitting, knitting, knitting. Or take up swimming. Whichever. LOL. I am glad you are.feeling better and I have faith that you can adapt.
@Laughter_Girl I don't usually leave that many calories in the table, but I was exhausted on Sunday and sleeping was more.important than eating.

It was a good day, but exhausting like most of my Wednesdays. I facilitate a weight loss challenge at my church, and we meet every Wednesday. It makes for a long day, but I'm pleased because the participants are making progress. Yeah, for them!
@bbinoa I wanted to attach an image of the hot fudge cake, but I'm not that savvy. Ha, ha, ha. It's delicious, and I'm not even a chocolate lover.
@MelissaPhippsFeagins I completely understand about being exhausted. Most of the time though, I'm rarely too tired to eat. I'm such a pig. Ha, ha, ha, ha.

Do you have Shoney's in your area? It's the same as Big Boy and if I didn't have celiac disease I would pig out on hot fudge cake.0 -

I think I need Lent to be over. Not having coffee does strange things to my sleep cycle. I was asleep before 10 last night and woke up at 3am. I didn't get up until after 5, but I might as well have. It's just a few more.days. I can do this.0 -

Heading back to work tomorrow. I've been working from home the last couple weeks but time to go back. Just when I'd memorized my favorite daytime tv lineup. Darn. Feeling really good though. To "celebrate" I bought a bike on Friday. I've been using the stationary bikes but haven't had a real bike in years. Figured it would give me something to do while I continue to rest my foot.0
