    Don't let them rattle you, Yooly. You know when you are on the right track. The other crazy stuff will come out in the wash.

    Thank you Laurie! I’m sure things will calm down eventually. How are you doing?

    My numbers of late are x .5 - my rooms are being halved, so the belongings need to be halved. Maybe me too???!!!!!! :) I keep shuffling things around and out. Today I was able to move some large peices of furniture. That is a big bang for the buck :) All the little things take forever, but don't make a big impact!

    Last week Corin, my God Dog human decided to stay in Ontario and be the "art student" renting half the house. Works perfectly. The Devil You Know :)<3

    His plan was to settle in Winnipeg - but his dad is failing, probably won't be here too long. So Corin is committing to staying in Ontario, in the "South Side" (I'm in the "North Side") for a year and shuffling stuff in his spare time - his dad's belongings, mostly a library that will stay in storage (Corin is a book fiend), plus a hundred plus boxes of his own books, plus all the stuff he cleared out from a 3 story rental house before he went on tour last fall.

    I feel like I'm getting off easy moving/reducing stuff from one side of the house to the other :)

    And lucky to have Corin staying hear for a while. He bring amazing energy and kindness. I love him like family - and I'm very in love with his dog :)

    I’m making modest progress. Feeling more in control. Wish I knew why and how to stay in the zone.

    I'm feeling good. I have a couple armpit cysts right now, one is draining so I skipped the gym monday cause, gross. I saw the urgent care Tuesday morning for antibiotics and they didn't get them sent into my pharmacy in a timely manner so I won't start them til this evening, which is super annoying, but what can you do. TMI, I know.

    Otherwise I'm doing great. Energy is good, and I'm eating fine, but my tastes are changing, sadly. Scrambled eggs with cheese made me gag the other morning, I had to quit halfway through, but I ate a chicken thigh and broccoli the night before and eaten other things since.

    Its just such alot of work to come up with food that's tasty, high protein and honestly, appealing to me right now. I'll keep at it, but yeah.

    any idea why tastes are changing? Side effect? deliberate?

    I don’t know Nic - sounds like the weird taste/food issues in pregnancy! NOT saying you’re pregnant. But aren’t the taste changes in pregnancy triggered by hormonal changes. Could rapid and large weight loss also cause hormonal imbalances?

    Obviously I’m no medical expert- just a thought.

    I'm sure it has something to do with hormones. I had a hysterectomy 5 years ago, so no fear of pregnancy, lol.

    Pav, it's definitely not deliberate. I love eggs, and they're a quick and easy way to meet my needs. I'll be sad if this persists. I'm going to try them different ways.

    I often have the same problem with eggs. As a vegetarian they are really handy! Quick simple protein. But sometimes they just won't go down. For me bbq sauce or sriracha or Frank's hot sauce does the trick :) I'm not sure if you are okay with that sort of stuff yet????

    Yeah, I can put stuff on the eggs. I'll have to see this weekend, I don't bother cooking when I work and I have 4 12hr shifts this week in a row, so... Yogurt and prepped foods it is

    So - made some progress this week. Pre- Christmas numbers! More to go. But lately I’ve been focused. Maybe I’m just getting over all the injury setbacks. 👍
