So I may not be around much tomorrow. I'm going kayaking on the Missiquoi river - 15 km of beautiful countryside. I thought it was only 10 km but it is longer! I did this last year as well and it is a fantastic trip. My veggie gardens got lots of extra attention today, so they can handle a day without me! As can you, I'm sure
Tuesday has NO weigh-ins, and everyone is doing just fine. Have a good one! Think of me wearing down my old shoulders and not caring one bit...8 -

Sounds like a great adventure. Have fun taking in the beauty. Share a photo if you can.2 -
Really didn't want to go play tennis tonight, but I made myself. It was a lot of fun and a great workout. The last game ended with multiple deuces in the pouring rain. Wew!! 🎾5

Good Morning everyone. No run this morning but I did complete a 30 minute brisk walk. I won’t have time for my stepper as I have to get ready for my post op appointment with my surgeon. I will attempt the stepper this evening after my evening walk if I’m not too tired. The scale is still being good to me which is getting my motivation up there. Nothing like seeing results to get you really going. Wishing you all a wonderful day ❤️💪🏻7

Reflection:
I have been going doctors and hospital during this week and it’s been hard work but I am still committed to do well.7 -
Finished painting my daughters room! One thing off my to do list. Today we are taking our new pup to the vet for her second visit. She showed up at the house a few weeks ago and I guess has chosen us as her family. 😁 She’s a sweet girl. We already have two dogs, a labradoodle and a golden doodle, not sure what we were thinking adding a third!
I’m going to get on my Gazelle and exercise. I figure if I post it here then I have to do it....I don’t want to be a liar! 😜
Everyone have a fantastic day!5 -
Just finished 15 minutes on my Gazelle. I will eventually increase the time! Today I need to finish painting my daughters room after church so that will be some exercise too! Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!
Way to go!!! Tomorrow 16 minutes. I would help you paint if I was there. 😊🖌
Thanks my favorite Aunt! The girls switched rooms and Marie’s now room really needed to be painted and it’s huge! I got half of it done and now the other half which didn’t happen today. Took a Sunday afternoon nap! But I have all week!
Please please please - come to my house and paint. There are rooms that have been waiting for me to paint them for over 20 years. It just isn't my thing - I need you!!!
I don’t mind painting a bit! It’s just getting started. 😜 The end result always makes me feel good!
Getting started is where I am completely stuck at all times. I freak out over picking the colours. I get little samples, put on a tiny splotch and decide it's horrible. I never go back. Or I never even get to that stage. I think I need to hire someone to do this for me!
I have a hard time with colors too. My daughter picked hers and it’s a light blue. Very pretty! Have several people look at your colors and see what the majority vote is! Good luck!2 -
Super happy today!! Just got home from my post op appointment and I’ve been given the full clear for workouts and in a weeks time I can actually take my kids to the pool!! Next appointment is end of August to get things rolling for my surgery in October!! Also....a peak at today’s lunch. Beef 🥩 with a Potatoes 🥔 and veggies 🥒🍆over the fire grill and strawberries 🍓 and cream for dessert. ❤️

Need to come clean, this weekend I had a party for my sons engagement. It started on Saturday and I did not keep my self accountable for the last 3 days. I am back 100% today and I am hoping I didn't mess myself up too bad with a large gain. I was so tried after the party that I just didn't care what I was eating. We had so many leftovers and desserts where in a large quantity. I made my husband bring them to work today to get them out of the house and I am going to freeze whatever is left. Today I feel I can say sick about how I behaved with my choices but I am back. I will try to eat as clean as I can and I am hoping for only a small gain on Saturday. I came to far to let this get to me. I still have 10 pounds to go before I can have my knee surgery and I'm not going to let this get in the way of meeting my goals.9

On the feeling of "pumped after working through i'll NEVER be able to do this! ... my last round of Second Language qualifications (up for renewal by mid-next-year.
I felt PROUDER (more proud?) about my mid-range Grammar pass - which is the tougher of the two on-line tests for me - than the higher-than-required score on the Reading Comprehension.5 -
Still working on getting back to where I started before the holidays. I need to get back into an exercise routine. It's so hard after a holiday weekend and poor eating choices. But I'm not giving up. If it were easy, everyone could do it.3

@mari_moulin So glad all went well at your post op appointment. You have to have another surgery in October? I'm sorry you're going through so much. In the meantime, enjoy that wonderful lunch of yours! 0 -
I bought bacon seasoning. Its supposed to make anything taste like bacon, and its vegetarian.
I'm not sure if it tastes like bacon exactly, but it is yummy and does improve the heck out of these steamed green beans that are, frankly, not very tasty otherwise.5 -

Yes I’m currently in the skin removal phase. I did my tummy 11 weeks ago and I have arms and breasts in October.1
