    This is wonderful news! I am so glad everything is okay. That anxiety of the unknown is awful!

    @Saragirl2 Hi! Welcome! The Half Size Me webinar you mention...is that a Podcast? I recently started listening to a few a day at work or when I walk, and most of them are inspirational and I really am hooked on them now. Wondering if this is another one I should

    Joan6630 & OConnell5483,
    Half Size Me is the name of the podcast & it is free. Heather Robertson releases a new podcast every Monday am. Personally I enjoy the episodes where she interviews someone. You can check out her website. In addition to the free podcast I pay a monthly subscription I to be part of the HSM Community for extra support & have access to Heather's webinars (listen to over 250 prerecorded), access to the closed FB group & any courses available. Heather's approach is all about no gimmicks, being healthy & losing weight with a maintainer's mentality so we can live with the choices we're making & keep the weight off forever. I love the fact that I can listen to a podcast/webinar while I walk, workout, chores, etc. If anyone needs help setting up podcasts, let me know. A lot of her guests are active on MFP!!

    One of my favorite episodes features "Betty Lou". Sure to put a smile on your face.

    Hope you check it out.

    Recap W 4/26 - rainy weather moving in, hair appt. after work, so no dog walk :/
    1) Total net calories w/i 100 of daily goal = big fail :s
    2) Finish three things on to-do list in evening = 3 completed, started another (would've finished, but Kitty curled up in my lap for nap) :smile:
    3) Floss = yes Day 4 :smiley:
    4) Bedtime by 10:30 & TV off = another night to bed late...can't keep doing this, I'll be dragging by evening :/

    JFT Th 4/27 - rainy day, skipping lunchtime hike at work, choir tonight ....squeeze in short walk with dog if rain ends
    1) Net calories <100 over daily goal
    2) Take stairs breaks during workday >25 flights
    3) Floss
    4) Bedtime by 10:30 & TV off

    Life has really been getting in the way of my morning goal-setting lately. I've been doing pretty well at setting and complying with them in my head though. :)

    Today I am working from my parents' house (an hour and a half away from where I live) because my dad had something urgent to do in another city and my mom can't be left alone. She has some kind of serious heart issue going on and is in the process of getting a diagnosis...but she is getting worse, so we don't want to leave her alone for a whole day. This aging parents thing is not for the faint of heart. I am really missing having siblings around to help.

    I am sure it is very stressful helping aging parents, especially when you are the only one to help with no siblings to help you out. So proud of you for doing it though - something you will never regret, and your kindness will pay itself back to you someday. I hope things get a little easier for you - thats a lot to go through.

    1. Stay in the green :)Yes! Finally!

    4. Complete Phase II tasks that are due. Complete patient build for MST project. Attend meetings via Skype with a smile on my face and a smile in my voice. :DKept smile in my voice and on my face but had so many meetings that I really didn't get much done on my project.
