    Sarah - Where are you located, here in Alberta we are having below normal temps. Very rainy and cool this year. I am hoping it clears up for July.

    Hey ladies and other peeps. I fell off the wagon rather spectacularly, ate a ton of crap and feel terrible but it also motivated me to ramp up how I’m going about this weight loss journey. Went to the gym today and did weights.

    Saltine - your post is not dumping so dont think that.

    My suggestion start small with your walking, you were doing so much at one point.

    At work low flying vultures. bbl

    Audit review Thursday - reviewed notes she made, she told me to make sure I am using all of my resources, so one of my questions to her is she one of my resources??

    Temps topped out at 105 had coworker drive me home. One more day of over 100 until next week.

    Wilting in the heat, wishing all a good night.

    WEDNESDAY

    Good morning,

    Saltine! first of all love your profile pic :smile: and I agree with Sara one step at a time. I suggest for your friend(as I have been there) Find a way to remember her in your own way. Visit grave/memorial to say your good bye. Forgive yourself for not going. Your health is important. One step at a time to achieve better health. Celebrate the small victories - always! Glad to hear from you again.
    Tracey - I LOVE LOVE LOVE the door. I think it works perfectly in your space and looks great with your floor!
    Marsel - glad you stopped in again as well. Keep on keeping on! I had a stupid ice cream drumstick last night, which was worth the calories in taste and I enjoyed it. But my stomach did not. So next time I will try and remind myself to make a better choice and try and remember the feeling like crap part :smile:
    Went wedding dress shopping for my 2nd daughter who is getting married now 3/14/20! So I will apologize ahead you have heard me drone on about my 1 daughter getting married on 8/3 - it won't end there - You may have to put up with it until march!
    Suzu - chocolate donut does sound very yummy. one is ok...it is when we do not stop at one that gets us in trouble!
    Waves to Lana, Dawn, Kathryn, Tracy and all others who stop by. Lurking from work.

    Still 102 lower 90's tomorrow they say?? We shall see.

    Doing dishes need the containers for tomorrow/Friday lunches.

    Saltine your dogs are wanting to walk with you- that is fabulous. Enjoy their company outside even if you dont take a long walk.

    Wishing all a good night.

    Saltine- HUGS! I'm terrible with words... so HUGS to you! Walk those pups! They will love you for it and, you will feel better. I keep saying, i'm going to walk mine... so far, just walking alone... getting bored, tho.. my Scentsy team members are rooting for the Raptors, too... no idea what sport they are...lol
    Everyone here is excited about the Stanley Cup. A Mo team is in the playoffs...St Louis Blues... first time in almost 50 years... you'll get back to it... this was a start and, your pups won't let you forget :)

    THURSDAY

    Good morning,

    Upper 90's today and thank you for it. Opened my window for about 15 minutes just for the air. Quality of air is not too good but tomorrow it should be okay.

    As I was making snacks for the day and had to measure my greek yogurt - I thought- those of you with food scales, how good are you at using it?

    Cafe salad today and dinner is still up for grabs.

    Asked neighbor with one of the best dogs in the complex did he work for the state or know anyone who did. Seems he knows someone who works for the Department on Cannibus - only in CA folks!! Guess now that it is legal..... Okay didnt CO make it legal too?? Same dog had shoes on yesterday - got at AMAZON (I asked) so dog can walk better on hot asphalt. My dog wont bother so I am not dishing out $$$$.

    Audit today will limp back to desk and lurk afterwards.

    Sara- 102???? Yikes! And yes marijuana is legal in a number of states and more every day. It is a great movement in my opinion for medical reasons if nothing else. Lots of studies out there for pain, stress, anxiety, neurological.Helps a lot of people. Might be a great department to work for :smile:
    Have a happy Thursday- one more day to weekend!!!

    saltine - <<<hugs>>> you aren't alone in this.
    Lynn - 2 weddings this year?? GAH! DH has a huge container of ice cream drumsticks in the house. on rare occasion one may disappear from the box (as long as its within my calorie budget)
    Sara - you must have part of our heat out there! its below normal temps here. high today only in 60s, typically we are reaching into the 80s by now. good luck with the job hunt!
    Tracey - love that door! we have been considering putting one on our hallway bathroom to make entering and exiting easier. (its a weird setup) but just haven't pulled the trigger
    Dawn - a lot of people are in a Stanley Cup frenzy here as well. have you started walking with girl at work?
    Lana - how is it going with WW? good group?

    putting in 10 hour day, then jumping in truck for a 6 hour drive, get to hotel by midnight (if we're lucky), get what sleep we can, then up at 6am to go drive Jeep through the mountains for a few days! i am a glutton for punishment! haha

    Kathryn- still walking alone... but, I think I am ok with that... for now at least... kinda struggling with motivation, again.. but, this time, I think it has to do with shoes... my feet have been killing me.. my good shoes have broke down and started bothering me...I bought a cheap pair online, only to find they have absolutely no support... trying to push thru, just miserable at end of day...we have the same weather, here... I've been bundled up all day...have fun Jeep-in.... hope weather is good for you

    Sara- MO legalized MJ for medical use... they can't seem to pass for recreational...we may be having a dispensary opening up right by my work... should be interesting... never know, could be a good job...

    Lana- enjoy lounging... good day for it

    seems my Sup wont get a bonus if our total audit /production scores are not above 90% - my year total audit was 89% and I am not sure how motivated I am to work that hard at the moment........not interested in working my "squirrel" off

    Dawn - if your tires are new, they should be under warranty??? Hope they got fixed.

    Tomorrow is Friday

    FRIDAY

    Good morning,

    It is Friday!! TGIF and it is cool enough w/o air pollution to open the windows. Hard to know which one is better.


    Bought one of their "Ready to Wok" bags (teriyaki) and it made 2 meals and not bad and not pricey. If you want meatless it works alone but adding chicken would be great too -

    Imaging trying that at work!!!

    Good morning & Happy Friday

    Woohoo....the Toronto Raptors are the 2019 Basketball (there you go Dawn :smiley:) Champions!!!! :joy:

    Leaving work early today to go for an allergy test, not sure what that entails but I hope it doesn't hurt :worried:

    Thank you all for your support, I have missed this group <3

    Well no dog walking since Tuesday, we did go & see 2 houses on Wednesday and might make an offer on one, but we'll talk more about it over the weekend as the offer date is not till Tuesday. Then had to watch the basketball game yesterday so I might try to go out for a short walk tonight if it doesn't rain...my little Mocha thinks he will melt if he gets wet :grin:

    Marijuana is legal in Winnipeg where I live, almost 1 year now.

    According to my Fitbit I walked 10,700 steps yesterday...not great but at least I hit my goal of 10,000

    Sara ~ Love the "Purrito" so cute (makes me miss my little Sabrina even more o:) not like I don't miss her all the time tho.)

    Kathryn ~ hope you have a great time on your jeep trip.

    Dawn ~ funny you mention your feet bothering you as mine has been sore since March/April ish like a tired sore...which doesn't help when one wants to walk more...lol

    Wishing everyone a fun & relaxing weekend & waving to all.

    ~Saltine~ >:)

    Hi! Rainy day here in WI -cool and rainy has been the theme of the summer so far.

    Saltine - do you know how to addfriends on fitbit? I am always up for step challenges. Normally I am over 10000. somewhere inthe 10-14000 range, if I get my walk in. I am under Lynn Brenner - I think- that is what I see when I click on my account. Anyone interested? We can maybe challenge each other?
    Sara - I too love the Purrito - darn that kitten is cute!
    Lana, Dawn, Kathryn, Tracey, Tracy, and all others - waves! Lurking...

    Was rooting for the Raptors - Marc Gasol played high-school ball in the city and we all watched him grow from Pau Gasol's gangly kid brother to an anchor for the Grizzlies from 2008 - 2019. He is so loved in this city and we are all so proud that he got to go to a team and win a championship.
    Beautiful in Memphis this week. We NEVER get June weather like this mid-80s and NO humidity to speak of.

    Sara- love the kitty pic..we actually do that to cats that are hard to handle..we call it "kitty burrito" yes, they fixed tire, no charge. The valve stem was leaking... thank goodness I didn't run over anything. I did that once, with fairly new tires. I had to buy a new tire... same place, so that's why I wasn't sure what would happen..

    Saltine- Thanks...I finally found out what sport, last night...lol... most of my Scentsy family is Canadian... so, they were all excited...hehe..
    Yes, tired feet make walking a real challenge... My wonderful DH suggested soaking them, the other night. We have a foot bath with jets. First time, ever in my life, I ever soaked my feet... really helped... felt much better the next day. Walking on concrete all day, doesn't help. Good luck with house hunting! Hope you find one you love!

    Lynn- if I can ever get a Fitbit, I will add you! I need to find a way to get motivated to move more...

    Waves to Lana and suzu...
