Day/Weight/Comment
01/13 185.6 well, off to a good start. I feel like I'm in a pretty good "zone" right now with my eating. Today's focus is to drink all my water. However, I have a trip coming up Thursday and that's always really challenging to stay on track when you can't control your food as well. Automating things as best as I can for good results.

01/14 186.6 BF 41.0% carrying some extra water apparently, I had a higher carb day yesterday (lentils and ham for dinner) so maybe that's why. stayed on plan today except for one glass of wine after dinner which overall is not too bad. we'll see how the scale is tomorrow I suppose!

congrats @puttyputty !! ~ 100 pushups is great goal! you inspire me to do a little more in that area

It's funny because I really don't much like push ups, but I viewed it as something that would be very challenging and help me improve upper body strength. Both things have come true! If anyone is interested, this is the challenge I'm doing: https://hundredpushups.com/test.html

@puttyputty My arms need work, so I had to check this out. I ordered "Perfect Fitness Pushup Stands" from Amazon that arrived today, so it's time to join you in the pushup challenge. I'll be starting with knee pushups, but it will be challenging for me. Thanks for the link!

Just a bit of background. I own two small businesses. I am proud to have worked very hard to have accomplished this on my own as a divorced single mother raising my children. I bought these prior to my second marriage. I live at one location. The other is about 1/4 mile away. My (now) adult daughter manages that location with her fiancee and my 3 young DGS's. Both are motel/cabin rental businesses. Yesterday the neighbor at the other location decided (while drunk) to put some yellow plastic thin rope (practically crafting rope) around his HUGE dead oak tree and chop it down. It was located about 8 feet from the edge of my motel building. As he roped it up my daughter called a local tree service person nearby to hurry come check it out. The man tried to persuade him not to cut it, it was a dead tree and would easily crack and he would lose control. The rope was wrong and he needed a bucket truck for a dead tree, not a rope anyway. It must be cut in small sections from the top when dead. And the location....... He cursed that he has insurance and continued to rope it around. Of course my daughter began to take pictures while the tree was still standing and with the bad rope around it. He notched it and cut. It fell full force onto the roof of my building that has the beautiful new (and expensive roof) and put holes large enough for a man to fall through. Instant gas leak. Tree bent vent pipes. Tree stuck on roof. Roof line ruined, soffets ruined. gutters ruined. Stress cracks inside the room straight below on walls & mouldings. After getting the gas company to turn off the gas, and fixing it before any rooms could freeze (yes we had customers and yes, it is Northern Michigan running well below freezing). When they turned the gas back on and tried to light the pilots in all the units (whole motel was shut off) the 2 end units directly under the tree would not light or get gas. Problem was another major gas leak in the attic which shut down two rooms completely (the huge money making suites). Gas off again, shut-offs put in so the rest of the motel could get gas. Pilots re-lit except for Suites 6 & 7. By 11:00 last night a company about 2 hours away came to us here in the middle-of-nowhere to put in multiple electric commercial heaters to keep the units warm so the pipes would not freeze and cause chronic damage (yikes, we sit on a slab with pipes under building!). Tree was removed by tree service. Roof was shoveled off today of snow and large tarps were attached. Tomorrow pipe fitters are coming in to fix the gas pipes in the attic, then the real work begins of the roof repair. Are the trusses broke? Don't know yet. But the plywood is shattered and the damage is bad. The business losses for rental alone are bound to be tremendous. And his insurance......????? What insurance???? Does he even have any? He refuses to produce it or even to name his insurance company. The man actually got up on my roof with a chainsaw running and said he was going to fix it all. Drunk! We asked him to come down (the tree was still up there too) but he just kept cutting. Finally, after another call to the authorities, the state police arrived and "trespassed him" so that he cannot come back over to our side without getting in trouble.

I can only thank God that most of my guests had checked out prior and that no one was hurt. I'm also thankful that my family is okay. The building was shook so hard that it was felt from one end to the other and the Gas company even said that all the clamps holding the gas pipes to the building had been rattled loose from one end to the other. They said it likely fell with the force of about 10,000 pounds of impact! A business insurance claim is a whole new area for me. Feeling a little lost while trying to remain professional. I wish my DH was here instead of in heaven. I could use his help about now. I don't look forward to staying neighbors in such close proximity with this man & his wife. My insurance has already said they go after the neighbor (or their insurance if they have it) to be reimbursed for my coverages. My deductible is $1000.00 so I'm not sure how that works either.

I suppose I will get through this the way I get through everything, but it is a bit easier knowing you are all thinking of me. BTW, I did fit in that walk. Tonight I will do a little aerobic dancing and try my best to stay on track and mitigate the damage I did to my plan yesterday. Thanks to everyone for the well wishes and the prayers.

@deepwoodslady Oh my goodness what an ordeal. So sorry you have to deal with such a mess. I will add my prayers to those already given.

SarahG626

@deepwoodslady I cannot even begin to imagine the chaos. I am very thankful there were no injuries. Buildings can be fixed. I’m praying you have good insurance folks who can help you wade through all the red tape. Saying lots and lots of prayers. Sending many positive vibes your way.

@deepwoodslady Donna--So sorry that you have to go through this. Your neighbor sounds like a real winner! Sending lots of hugs and prayers. Definitely do some dancing to relieve some of the stress!

This is my twelvth round. The last round was pretty bumpy, so I'm hoping for a better time this round. I may decide to reset my Mini-goals....rather than be frustrated for the next 5 months!! They looked pretty reasonable two weeks ago!

01/13 -- 153.5 -- Happy scale day! .5 below pre-Christmas weight! Some of the loss (and gain last round) probably due to TOM.
01/14 -- 153.5 -- So nice to see this number repeat. I think the bloat is mostly gone.
01/15 -- 154 -- (got 153.5 at first and stepped on it again. Got 154 for my trouble, and the scale stuck with it!)

@deepwoodslady --that is terrible!! If that man attempts anything else like this and if drunk--the police can take care of it especially with this in his history. Sorry--feel bad for you. Praying it works out. Great job on the walk. You are inspiring!

Day/Weight/Comment
01/13:235.5. I ate 2100 calories. Today was a rest day from lifting weights, but I still walked for 60 minutes. Still struggling to get my daily calories into a lower range. When I first started dieting a few years ago, it was very easy for me to only eat 1500 calories per day. I’m not sure what happened to that mindset.
01/14: 235.5. I did much better with dieting today. 1600 calories. 40 minute workout and 60 minutes walking.
01/15: 235.0. 1950 calories. 35 minutes lifting weights and 70 minutes walking.

01/15 - 131.6 (Worked out hard, kept my carbs under 20g and calories under 1400. Drank 3l or water.)
01/16 - 130.6 (Worked out hard, kept my carbs under 20g. In the middle of monthly bloat)
