Yeah i was feeling pretty good yesterday back on top! the last three days of work are done and i am caught up. now all i have to do it get the annual review letters out to everyone that is suppose to have one in april. apparently my office help didn't do that either. got out of work and headed straight to my hairdressers. i got my hair cut and colored. just as i was getting ready to leave there to go home, i get a phone call. it is my dad. he thinks my mom has had a stroke. they were at home so i told dad to call 911 and i would meet him at the hospital. we got there about the same time. it wasn't a stroke.... it was a heart attack. when we left her this morning, she was in her room at the hospital and stable. i don't think this is it for her but you never know. so i didn't get home this morning till 2:00 a.m. i have my recheck at the gyno this morning and then i am heading back to the hospital. for those of you who don't remember, she has a 70 % blockage and is not a candidate for open heart or TAVR. so even when the cardiologist gets there this morning there is really nothing they can do. prayers for peace are appreciated.
@Mrsbell8well that is because you are an angel my lady!! i bet you look amazing in it. your right, nip that in the bud. steps have been kinda low too. whats up chicky? remember, it is just who you are now. don't back peddle.
@nstephenson01 great job on those steps and getting in your exercise. and yes, the poppers are quite a bit of work. you slice them in half and take out the guts, then mix cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and bacon together and fill each half of a pepper, then put them in the oven at 425 for 20 minutes and viola a yummy popper. and it takes a lot of mindfulness to stop at 2. but i had a BIG salad before soo... it helped some.
@lennoncpa well we don't want you to worry about it, but certainly be mindful of it. normal eaters don't worry about their food but they know when they are hungry and they know when they are satisfied. words are powerful stuff. be careful what you say to yourself. i really am glad you are back. we missed you. do you have all the loose ends wrapped up at work? no extensions to work on?
@carlsoda thanks for checking in.
@Julie8468 you are right. when we skip a meal it can leave us famished. i always have quick alternatives premade either in the frig or freezer. i do all my prep on sunday. i meal plan for the week, grocery shop, and prep the food for the meals as much as possible. this way, i am set for a successful week. it is hard in the beginning but when you get used to it, it is just like any other habit, it is just what you do.
@twyla77 good job getting those steps in. you are a rock star!!
@GingerPwr nice job on that hike. i love going for hikes. i have the 100 acre woods on the other side of the field. i love it back there!! i want to build a tiny house in those woods!! are you logging your food? it really does help keep you accountable. try taking a small amount of time in the morning and log your food for the day. this way, you have made a written commitment to yourself. i found it helps.

@cyndiesstuff sorry to hear about your mom. Thinking of you guys.
Well the scale moved, I wasn't expecting that, maybe it's broken. I have been working out and eat pretty good. I didn't workout yesterday my hips we're killing. I'm going to try to type my paper at work today, if I have time because after work I have a dentist appointment, yikes. Then I have to go drop off all my notes on my paper to my professor, never heard of that before but ok. Then hopefully I will make it home to workout. That's my plan for the day. It sounds so good in my head.2 -

Steps were a little low because I was mostly on my knees trying to lay weed barrier fabric in the wind What a mess! I hope to finish the gravel today so that project is complete. Today's food is pre-logged and I'm just trying to stay focused to get into the 160's.
@cyndiesstuff So sorry to hear about your mom. You are in my thoughts.0 -
@cyndiesstuff - so sorry to hear about your mom - sending prayers your way.
Wednesday Check In:
Food - ugh we won't talk about it
Water - really good
Exercise, 13,000+ steps, yoga and started a 30 day plank challenge. My core is pretty darn weak
Well food was bad yesterday, just craving carbs and sugar and of course gave in. My body is starting to hurt all over too which is telling me I need to get off it. I was so tempted to pick up something sweet for breakfast but I talked myself out of it, instead I stopped and picked up Lara Bars. They are sweet but a much healthier choice to have then say a donut! Time to reel in the sugar dragon. I was too lazy to pack a lunch today but I think I'll go to subway and get a tuna salad. The fat and protein from the tuna should keep me full.
Hoping everyone has a great day!!4 -
Daily Check in: Wednesday
Food: Logged and on track
Water: at least 80 oz
Exercise & steps: 2 walks-40 min and 20 minutes. 11,204 steps
Overate last night. Unexpectedly went out to dinner and ordered healthy but had some of the appetizers. That actually wasn't the whole problem, I ate less than I would have of the appetizers but then I ate my entire meal and was stuffed. I guess I have been doing a little better with this hunger thing than I give myself credit for because I haven't felt stuffed in a long time. Not a good feeling. I feel like I still don't have a handle on the hunger thing and it was suggested in the podcast to stop at 75% of your meal and evaluate how you feel, I am going to give that a try. That might be easier to remember for me. Oh well, not an exciting day. Going for a walk and then back to cleaning. I also am going to a wedding tomorrow and have to figure out what to wear. Hope everyone has a great day! It is almost the weekend!!
@julie8468 We all have days like those. I love that you automatically saw what you needed to do and made a plan for today. Great job!!
@twyla77 It is hard to fit in exercise with busy jobs and lives. Nice job making your walk home longer. Sometimes you just have to fit it in when you can.
@GingerPwr It must have been a beautiful day to hike! I am so happy spring is here! Fitbit can be frustrating with the synching. I usually have to reset mine to get it to synch. I have an old fitbit one clip on so I am not sure if that will work for you. You don't lose you data if you reset.
@cyndiesstuff I am so sorry to hear about your Mom! How scary! Sending prayers and hugs. Nice loss BTW! Glad things other than your Mom seem to be looking up.
@Shirin_K Hope things are going well. I know you are busy but remember we are here for support if you need us. Hugs!
@ljdanny Nice loss!! No the scale is not broken!! Lol! Give yourself a pat on the back girl! Whatever you did, keep it going. Hope you get in all you have planned today.
@nstephenson01 Nice loss!! Almost out of the 170s!
@carlsoda Give yourself credit for recognizing what was going on and trying a healthier option. Glad you figured out a healthy option for lunch today since you weren't able to pack one. Not sure if you like salads but our subway makes any sub into a salad. I was surprised but it was pretty good. Hope today is better.3 -
Hello all! I hope you are doing well! Sorry I have not been on here much, been busy!
This week is going well! I should have a decent loss on Saturday. I have been on track this week, I am feeling good! I increased my fasting from 16:8 to 18:6 and it seems to be working. When I eat my first meal, it keeps me full for quite a while. I thought it was going to be hard to extend it by 2 hours, but I feel good. So far so good!
I just wanted to touch base. I will try to catch up with everyone's posts.
Have a great day! The weather has been great!

Hello and happy Thursday everyone. I was at a funeral today for my friends grandfather. He was 102 and rode his bicycle up until two years ago. He actually had to stop riding because of his vision, not because of his body!! What an inspiration he was. Taking care of ourselves is more than just looking good in our clothes. In addition to his physical mobility, he wasn’t on any medications. I understand that in some cases it is in our genes and not within our control, but those things that are within our control is what I am trying to focus on. Enjoying life but not eating crap! Exercising to keep things moving well. And exercising my mind as well!!8

@kirsten11872 I am happy to hear you are on track and having a great week! You always do so well with the IF!
@lennoncpa Sorry to hear about your friend's grandfather. He sounds like he had a good life up to the end. He is inspiring. I want to be independent and productive for as long as I can be too.2 -
@lennoncpa that is amazing! 102 years old, God bless him!
I agree, we need to take care of ourselves. Some things are hereditary, but we can control so many things by eating right and staying active. I never plan to stop working out. As long as I do it every day, I should not have a problem being active for the rest of my days. My mom is in good health, she is 74 years old, but she has no muscle and it is hard for her to do certain things. She still works a full-time job, but she has no strength. She always tells my sister and I to keep working out and stay in shape so we can feel good when we are much older.4 -
