      Today's goals. Take photos of everything I eat and share with FB group regarding weight loss with calories. I like to do it occasionally to keep myself accountable and also share what's working for me (eating a lot and still losing), in case it's helpful for others.

        Bit of a fail, didn't do any of it. Although in fairness the halloween decor issue was that there is none to be found anywhere, I think retailers gave up on it with a second lockdown looming here.

        Anyway I am in the office today, so won't be much exercise going on again however I do need to give the apartment a deep clean as Landlord calling tomorrow. The place is pretty clean but not it's usual level of tidiness since my OH moved in with me :neutral:

        We're sort of moving the furnishings around because it's getting colder weather, and we're not wanting to eat dinner out in the sunroom any more. So today I moved (yes, by myself) the loveseat-sized couch from in front of the fireplace in the library out the sliding patio door to the sunroom, and put it in the corner. And then I swept and mopped the floor where the couch and the bookcase next to it was. I had to unload and move a leaning-style bookcase to get the couch out, so once the floor dries I'll put that back and reload it and bring the table in. And that will probably look pretty nice. (The table is a gateleg that goes down narrow, so moving it isn't an issue. The couch was the issue.)

        So I got that done, and played through the phone tree to get my insurance information updated with the change of address, and to get them to send me a letter, because if I have a letter from my insurance and my bank, I can get a library card and get my driver's license updated to show the correct address. And I can see if I can get an appointment with Social Security to flourish my divorce paperwork and become Firstname Maiden Name instead of Firstname Maiden name Married Name. COVID showed up at the WRONG time.

        Today I am just going to try to get all the dirty dishes washed, and deal with the rest of things tomorrow. I'm in a fair amount of pain today, and that's something I just have to allow for.

        I’m taking a long weekend and going out of town. I’m not going to worry too much about calories and just eat at Maintenence for the weekend. Don’t have much planned but we are going to do something fun lol.

        I've already done my walk/run this morning and managed to do SIX(!!) pushups. Only other goals are to pre-log again, eat below maintenance, cook something yummy, and go to bed early. Anything else (walk, bike ride, yoga, cleaning) is a bonus!

        My goal today is to rest and reset my energy level....I really did too much in the pool this week....I went beyond my limits and I got my butt whipped...my ankle, hip, and side hurt when I was water jogging yesterday but I pushed through it and I should have stopped...so today I am giving myself an easy day and eating 1400 to 1500 calories...I still weighed my lowest weight this morning so I am ok....I can not believe Sunday is Nov. 1....

        My goal today is to stay on track!...be kind to myself and forget about the past two days of over eating....today is a new day and I know I can do this...one hour at a time!...the extra water weight from eating garbage will be gone in a few days....heading to the pool later for a much needed workout!

        My goal for today is to be kind to myself emotionally. The stress of covid + distance learning + this freaking election is getting to me. I don't feel like I am going to overeat - but my head and heart hurt.

        So far I got the bike put the rest of the way together and did fifteen minutes on it. I intend to do another fifteen after lunch when I get the sleepies and see if that knocks that out. Wednesdays are laundry days, and there's a load in the dryer and a load in the washer, and then two loads from my girlfriend's room, her sheets and her clothes. I also want to clean out the fridge.

        Lunch is burritoes for eating out of hand, and dinner is pizza for us girls and fish and vegetables for him. I don't like fish much. He can't eat pizza. This is our compromise.
