Monday check in
Food - IF and on track
Water - 2 l (finally getting more water!)
Exercise - 40 min walk, 11457 steps
Yesterday was a good day and the IF has been making me feel better after vacation. I am taking it slow with walking but getting some good steps in when I do. I will try a run later this week, weather permitting. We have another school strike on Thursday, so the boys will be off. Some of their friends will come over for the day as I am here to supervise everyone (lucky me!). This labour dispute has been going on for months and I really hope it gets resolved as the strikes are ramping up (not taking any sides, just want this to end). I am lucky to have older kids and I work from home. The parents with little kids that use the school daycares are having it worse. But still it is bad for my boys as all school teams & activities are cancelled, reports cards and parent/teacher conferences are cancelled etc.
@brown6267 - Fantastic steps!! I have not played pickleball but want to try. Do you like it?
@Mrsbell8well - Hang in there. It is perfectly normal to get moody or cranky when you are recovering. This was a big curve ball for all of you. You and Molly have a lot on your plates and you are doing just fine. Try not to let things like a messy room get to you. If it makes you feel better, I am constantly on by boys about their rooms and chores, in general. Some days they are great, and other days not so much. It takes a lot of patience with kids and sometimes, I don’t have much! It comforts me to hear that you are pacing yourself and taking February off. Please stick to that promise with your recovery as you need rest right now. I am going to sound maternal, but don’t push it with the steps and chores. Take time to rest, nourish your body, mind and spirit. Think of this recovery as a quiet time to renew.
@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx -Great loss! Nice day and gorgeous photos! Thanks for the hummus recipe!
@JillyBT - A maintain is good and great that you did that meditation for your sleep. I am part of the sandwich generation too. I have been trying to help my MIL deal with her loss and my mom just asked me to take over her finances for her yesterday. It is not complicated but she wants somebody watching out for her. She has been independent until now and I don’t mind helping really. But I had a moment yesterday where it was like wow, I have to add this to an already full plate. I had to breathe and realized that I need to continue my focus on my health and this journey. I got this & you got this too!
@tryingagain5 - Sorry that you had that headache and I hope it goes away. If it doesn’t, it would not be a bad idea to check in with your doctor.
@starcrystal3 - You did have a good week, congratulations! I got one of those electric shovels so I can’t really count snow shovelling as a calorie burn any more. I also pay my son $5 to do it if he is around!
@GingerPwr - You are doing some great thought work lately, way to go! We all have bad days like your Saturday (and you are not a loser for having some rest on Sunday!). But you did not let that derail you and that is awesome! Fantastic that you are back into running and I hope to join you in the next month or so!
@kirsten1182 - You are in the zone and doing great! Keep it going as it is inspiring all of us!
@rundgrenrocks - I am so sorry that your husband is sick and it is very good that he went in to urgent care to get checked out. Anybody would be thrown by the day that you had so don’t sweat it. Also, don’t give up and get derailed! Even if the bad day turns into a few bad days, don’t give up! Post any time and we are here for you!
@sleepymom5 - I hope that you are doing ok today and being kind to yourself. Sending over another hug!
@jedaschultz - Nice loss, congrats!

Monday check in
Food - not logged and probably over
Water - 80 oz
Exercise - 30 min walk, PT, stretching and strength.
Thank you for the kind words about my friend. Needless to say, not very motivated to do anything yesterday and didn't get much done. I did force myself to exercise at least. Today will be better. Hope everyone has a great day! It is a soggy one here in Philly...
@rundgrenrocks You called your husband getting sick before the weekend. I guess you have to be on high alert since he has had that transplant. I hope he is feeling better soon and you stay well too. I really have a similar issue with things going off plan and I just give in. I really finally understand that it is a lifestyle change, I always said I understand but now I really get what that means. I don't think I am on a diet so there is nothing to go "off" of. I like what I am doing too so it really makes no sense. I give in to myself way too often by either overeating or eating off plan. I have no answers, I listen to podcasts and read and just keep on trying. Just remember to keep on trying and don't beat yourself up. We will figure this out. You also put into words another thing I do-give myself mental permission to eat badly when something is going up. Also the quick slide to that point. Yours is for TOM, mine could be for anything...
@kirsten11872 What a successful weekend you had! I really think this is what it is all about, that you can have fun, live your life and stay on track. That is what I am striving for. Thanks for the tip about the mixer, I ordered the margarita and the cosmo ones on Amazon right when I read that Lol!
@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx Nice loss! You have being doing so well even with the physical symptoms you have to work around. I can't believe you have never really seen snow, I guess I should have known that though Lol! Let me tell you, you can never post too many pics of your beautiful country. To think you can look at that everyday! So lovely! I actually have had relatives and friends who travel a lot say that New Zealand is the most beautiful place they have traveled to. I don't know if I could ever get the hubs to travel that far though...
@GingerPwr You know my struggles with drinking so I can relate. Give yourself a pat on the back, you got back on track. You may not have felt up to doing your usual Sunday routine (been there too )but you did reel back in your eating. You also seem like you are right back into for the work week. Great job! And yes-let stay strong!
@starcrystal3 Nice loss and sounds like a good week too! I think if we can learn something when we go off track or overeat it helps. I struggle with overeating however I used to be so much worse. I just keep trying to figure it out. You seem like you are doing well keeping track of what you are doing and going back and reflecting on your week. That is awesome!
@tryingagain5 Looks like a good day. Sorry that you weren't feeling well. Hopefully the headache finally went away and you had a good night.
@JillyBT I am sorry to hear about your parents. Even with caregivers, there are things only family can do. I am sure it is also frustrating that with dementia, they aren't going to remember the solution from the day before (or even from anytime before) and it starts all over again. I hope they don't live too far away. I am glad to see that you are still making a point to take care of yourself. A side note, my brothers are upset because my Mom rarely even picks up the phone anymore. She wouldn't even know how to dial. Maybe I should share with them that it could be the opposite and she could be calling all the time.... I actually don't know why they are obsessed with her not picking up the phone. My mother was always difficult and used to play games with us. I really believe this is her dementia, she is a different person now. She is actually pleasant. I guess maybe they think she is just up to her old ways. I don't call her unless one of my brother calls me to say she picked up. When she picks up, she will do it for a while so we all try to call her.
@mrsbell8well Tell Molly it is always a good sign when the "patient" gets bitchy, that means they are getting better I know she must have been overwhelmed the past week but I am sure that she understands what you are going through too. I am sure that your words stung a little but I am sure if you explain to her what you explained to us, she will understand. I bet having a productive day yesterday made you feel a little better. Remember that you had a good day yesterday, today you should rest a little more. Listen to your body. I can see why you are frustrated with the doctor too. I can't believe he didn't check your incision. If you are concerned, I am sure your daughter will be happy to check it out. I used to remind my patients, the doctor works for you. If you still have questions re the blood work, call him. He should answer your questions. I know you were curious about the results. As far as Molly month...I would give her a coupon for 10 days that you "owe" her and get back at it today. Maybe start with one of your strong points-writing and follow up with another strong point-cooking something yummy.
@brown6267 Wow! Awesome exercise and steps!
@Cafelelia Ugh! What a pain! Will the boys have days tacked on to the end of the year to make up for the time lost? I hope it gets settled soon. I was thinking something to increase your water when you are at home. I leave a glass of water or one of those bottles that keep it cold out on the counter. Whenever I pass by, I take a sip or two. You would be surprised how quickly those sips add up. I also started to make sure I have a water bottle in the car for the same reason. I can't go overboard in the car because of bathroom issues but just taking sips here and there don't seem to make too much of a difference.

Day 10! February 11. What would help unlock your resistance?
There is always something that would help you get through the defenses you throw up against your desire to for change. What would help you?

My answer to this...I look back to how far I have come. I really have made so many healthy changes in my life. My weight isn't moving very quickly but I do eat so much better and am in better shape than I have been in a long time. The fact that I want to figure out my stumbling blocks at all is a testament of how far I have come.1 -
@Cafelelia you do sound a bit like mom lol! I appreciate so much the care and concern and words of wisdom. Hang in there with this weeks challenges. It’s a good thing you had a vacation. You will need another one after all this.
@sleepymom5 good advice as well. I am starting out slow today. I’m finally feeling better. No head or throat issues. It’s rainy out and I’m still in bed snuggled in flannel sheets.
Need to go make my smoothie.
I did want to do a quick recap on Lectin free...my verdict...I think it might be easier for non vegans to follow. It can be done. There is lots is specialty food items and odd items. I ordered 3 supplements to find that 2 have shellfish that I need to return.
It’s too high of fat oil for me and weird to have so much salt. Not enough emphasis on clean eating for my preference and not comfortable with the fruit restrictions.
And overall it feels like a cult. That’s my take on it. In the long term not for me.
But I will say my gut issues cleared which was my whole reason for doing it. I think the restrictions on sugar and gluten probably benefited me.
Going back to organic clean eating and using some of his guidelines.4 -
Found these enchanting beauties on Facebook. Looking forward to future experimenting.4 -
Hello all! Just catching up with everyone's posts. Hope you are doing well & those who have not been doing well, I hope you feel better!
My streak is continuing! I am feeling really good! Last night I got home, I ate my dinner & started my fast. I was sitting around, started to feel lazy, then I decided to get changed and do my workout. I felt so good when I was done. It is so easy to sit & relax and not want to move once I get home from work.
Going to another hockey game tonight. Going to follow what I did on Saturday, but I doubt I will have a cocktail, I usually do that with the hubby & he can't go tonight. I should get a decent amount of steps in, I am at over 7K already.
@sleepymom5 glad you found the Splash mixes, you can find everything on Amazon, lol. I only had the Margarita one, let me know how the other one tastes, I hope you like it!
@Mrsbell8well you are going through a lot, hopefully your family understands. Take it day by day!
Have a wonderful day!2 -
sleepymom5 wrote: »@CassieGetsFit2013 TOM can be a PIA. I am sure that can explain the gain. I love the idea of the 7 min workouts. What a great plan to get exercise in! Is it cardio, strength or both?
It actually has different exercises, abs, butt, legs, arms, full body, etc! I really need to get started with it and see how it goes! 7 minutes might not seem like a lot, but it's definitely better than nothing, which is what I've been doing for a good while!

I went dog walking today and I had to walk to his house and back and it took 53 minutes, including there and back and our walk. MFP says that is a 488 calorie burn, but I'm not sure if that is all that accurate. What do you guys think?? I lost my FitBit, otherwise I would be wearing it now and could see what that said I burned. Grr!0

It could be correct but maybe a little aggressive. I did a 30 minute intense session with my trainer at the gym yesterday and my heart monitor said I burned almost 200 calories. So for me if I did the same workout for an hour it would have been about 400.
I think a lot depends on current weight and how fit the person is. Your route probably made a difference too, were there a lot of inclines or hills, how fast you were walking, etc.1 -
For those who wished my headache to go away yesterday, it did, thank you. The more I moved around once I was at work helped.
I don't get headaches too often but it was just a normal headache. I know a lot of people get migraines but I've never had one of those.3 -

Well, I have been out of shape lately and put more weight back on. Booo! There were maybe 2 hills to go up, and 2 I had to go down. Wish I could find my FitBit so that would probably be more accurate, don't you think? I was walking kind of a moderate pace. Not slow, but not very fast either. 😊 I do have Tachycardia, but not sure if that would mean I burn more calories just because my heart rate is always higher. 🤷♀️2 -
@sleepymom5 I'm so sorry about the loss of your friend. Lots of hugs for you as you take that journey of grief.
@Mrsbell8well I'm so glad you're getting your strength back! Keep taking it easy. Those flatbreads look absolutely amazing! I want to make one!
@tryingagain5 Glad your headaches are getting better. I had bad migraines when I was younger. I think I can stand just about any other pain than headaches.
So I was down 2 lbs over the weekend, but was right back at my PW today. I THINK it was the sodium in the sushi - even when you go under your calories, small things like too much sodium can cause water retention and weight gain.
Stayed on track with my eating today, and got in the run I missed on Sunday. After only 3 runs I was able to improve my distance by almost half a mile in the same time frame, so I'm calling that an NSV. I'm feeling better and I think I'm looking better (stomach is a little flatter because I'm cutting down carbs - less bloated) At this point until the numbers change I have to hold on to that.
Happy Tuesday!4 -

Hugs! You will take the weight off again. It may take time but that's ok. I asked my trainer about calorie counts on Fitbits. He said they're only correct part of the time. The heart monitor, (Myzone) I have was given to me by my trainer and it doesn't always accurately track my calorie burn either. I don't do anything with the calories I've burned. I eat the calorie range given to me by my trainer. I'm not sure how he figured it but it was based on my age, weight, height, etc.
I don't know anything about tachycardia but it would make sense if your heart rate is higher that you would burn more calories.
I guess I would just take the calorie burn amounts as an estimate.3 -

Took the day off from exercising, I was exhausted since my mom called me at 3:30am which of course I panicked... she was upset because she couldn't get my Dad out of bed... I said why are you trying to get him out of bed at 3:30am. She thought it was time to wake up. It took me a long time to go back to sleep.
Hearing others stories about their dealings with their aging parents helps. Thank you!5 -
So, I had 4 small pieces of chocolate around 5 or 6pm. My left arm started hurting a lot. I tried doing things around the house, but with it being in so much pain, it was hard to do anything. Then hours and hours later, it still hurt, but not as bad...Now it is 12:18 and about an hour ago, I had 4 more pieces of chocolate...My left arm started throbbing and hurting worse again, my legs felt weighted down, I felt a little short of breath, my eyes felt heavy, I got a headache and felt really drowsy. My BP is now 138/96. I just talked to a nurse advice line through my insurance and based on my answers to all of her questions, she thinks I will be fine tonight, but should see my Dr. Or go to urgent care within the next 24 hours. She did say if I get worse tonight, to call 911. I'm not feeling as warm and bad feeling, my left arm still hurts a lot though, but I am gonna try and sleep and see about seeing my Dr. Or just going to urgent care tomorrow. Anyone have any suggestions or know what might be going in with me? Welcome to all feedback! 😊2
-
@CassieGetsFit2013 That is such an odd reaction. Obviously medical professionals are best qualified to work it out, but it does seem linked to the chocolate. Is it one you hadn't had before? Any ingredients in it that you might have an allergy to?
I don't always discount random reactions because I get bad migraines from some trigger foods, and I haven't worked out what they all are yet. And the migraine can present as stabbing eye pain that radiates down my arm, dizziness, nausea, all sorts of lovely things. I have reaction to store bought bread of all things. And most artificial sweeteners, also if I have too much sugar in a day... all things I found out the hard way. And I have run the gamut of sitting in specialists rooms - neurology, neurosurgery etc.
I hope you get some rest and feel better in the morning, and please go get checked out.3 -

Yesterday my goal was 4K steps. I ended with 5,206. I was shocked how many steps you get cleaning. I swept and mopped all the downstairs floors. That’s usually Molly’s chores. Clean and dusted the living room. Did our budget. Moms pills. Took lots of rest breaks. Finished reading the couple next door in 2 days. Another observation is how much you accomplish when you turn off the tv. I’m not a big television watcher but it did help my first week of recovery. I have a long to do list today with lots of breaks as needed. I’m hoping to hit 6K steps today.
We’re talking more and more about what needs to happen for me to retire.
Today’s to do list:
Menu plan and grocery list
Attach Girl Scout badges to Skylynn’s vest
Clean 3 bathrooms
Polish my toes
Do something nice for Molly
Wash my hair
Prep for taxes
Vacuum
Dust bedroom
Work on planner
And submit “Daisy award” to 2 nurses that were exceptionally good during my hospital stay.
I might also start working on finishing up my short story I was writing last year.
Have a good day everyone!
And thanks again team for helping to pull me up from a very dark place. You have all made a huge difference in my recovery!8 -

I had a wonky day yesterday. My older son had a lot of issues at school last year, including some anxiety. He was in counselling and it just clicked for him. So he is doing so much better this school year. He is a teen though and some typical teen behaviour is emerging. He did not have the best day yesterday including being caught out of uniform at lunch, missing a meeting with his music teacher, and accidentally getting hit in the head during gym, requiring a concussion assessment (no concussion thankfully). He is ok, but it was energy draining and a reminder of our many bad days last year. I need to count our blessing though because really overall, he is doing just fine and often, he is doing great. But, it was really hard to get any work done yesterday, so I am catching up today.
@mrsbell8well - I like how doing something nice for Molly is on your list. I also like how you have worked in breaks too! Also very exciting that you are figuring out your steps to retirement. Hope that you are feeling well today!
@brown6267 - Nice steps!
@GingerPwr - Excellent loss!! Congratulations!
@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx - Fantastic steps and way to go with the cycling! Very inspiring!! I am a migraine sufferer as well, although they have subsided in the past decade. Certain foods are a trigger for me as well.
@CassietGetsFit2013 - I hope that you are feeling better today, but I echo everyone’s comments that it is best to go to the doctor and get checked. Glad that you called the nurse advice line, but it is best to get these things checked out, particularly if you are on any meds and/or have some health conditions. When you have a moment, let us know how you are doing.
@JillyBT - Good day yesterday in spite of the exhaustion and hope that you caught up on your sleep. I am so sorry about your mom. It is really hard taking care of aging parents and you are a good daughter. Glad to see that you are taking care of yourself too!
@tryingagain5 - Glad that your headache went away!
@33sandy1233 - Nice maintain!
@kirsten11872 - Love your story about getting your workout done! Great streak and hope you enjoyed hockey!
@sleepymom5 - You have come incredibly far and I am so happy that you see that! I hope that you are doing ok today.

Sorry, I have not been posting about the step challenge!
Our winner last week was @brown6267 with an impressive 85,216 steps!
I also wanted to confirm who is participating. I have 4 of us: @brown6267, @JillyBT, @ljdanny & me. If anyone else wants to track their weekly steps, please post and let me & Pam know.
For those of you participating, you can post your steps here everyday. It it is easier, you can post your steps for each day in one post on Sunday. We will announce the winner later on Sunday or on Monday.

Not a perfect day but improving day by day. I have a busy day ahead so I have to run. A friend and I are going to Georgia for the funeral. It is in Savannah. I had planned to stay at the shore until Tuesday morning but now I have to leave Sunday as I am flying down Monday morning. I have a lot to do to get ready for the weekend and the funeral between now and Thursday early afternoon. I am trying not to get overwhelmed and making a plan. I always do better with that. I want to exercise and then I am off. I hope everyone has a great day!
@Mrsbell8well That is how you learn, trying things, taking what works for you and continuing on your journey. Hopefully the guidelines you take from him are also the ones that helped your gut. I am not sure if those pics are flat bread but they look yummy. I would have to take a long slice so I could get all the veggies in. How creative! I hope it is a good sign that you are finding some recipes to try.
@kirsten11872 I think you are starting to get into a good routine! I don't understand once I get into one and I feel so good, that I ever go off...Keep it going girl! Hope you enjoyed the game, I am behind with my comments. Lol!
@cassiegetsfit2013 I think that app sounds great! Hope you like it and continue to do it. I think MFP overestimates the calories. That is actually why I don't eat them back. I don't want to gain. If you don't eat them back, it really doesn't matter what they are, you still got in a good workout. Hopefully you make an appointment with your doctor or urgent care today. That is a strange reaction to chocolate but there are some cardiac symptoms in there too so with your history, I would get it checked out. I am glad you called the hotline. It is nice to have that available to you.
@33sandy1223 Maintaining isn't bad...how are things going?
@GingerPwr WTG! Right back into the 140s-Nice loss! Not only a victory on the scale but I love when you can actually see that you are getting faster and stronger-a definite NSW! It seems like you are getting into a good routine! Also another NSV!
@JillyBT Getting a call like that pulls you right out of sleep and into panic mode. I am sure you were exhausted all day. Glad you took a rest day. I wish there was an answer for them placing calls but there is no way to make a phone work just when the call is important. It sure would be helpful though. Hang in there. Hugs!
@xX_PhoenixRising_Xx You really are in such a good routine plus working around any symptoms that may arise. I know it isn't easy.
@brown6267 Love your consistency! Rarely low steps from you!
@Mrsbell8well There she is! Angelina is back!! Remember to let your body and not your to do list be your guide. Glad you are feeling more like yourself. Hugs!!
@Cafelelia I can relate as I have had many similar days with Mary Kate. It would be nice to have a crystal ball and see how everything turns out wouldn't it? I think the teen years are the hardest for us and them. That being said, MK turns 20 in April, I think her teen years may extend into her 20s....You are doing all you can for him and he is doing well. He will have bad days here and there. Hang in there! Love the pic you used for the step challenge. I got an Lol with George being in a Canadian Tux. I was so curious what it looked like that when I scrolled up I really did Lol!4 -
Day 11 - February 12. What word or phrase can you (or do you) use to remind you of your commitment? Share this word or phrase with everyone on your team and anyone who can help you at home. Ask them to remind you when needed!

Hello all! Just caught up with everyone's posts! We are a very busy group!
I am still on track! I had another successful day yesterday! I had the hockey game last night, so I did not workout, but I did get in 15,255 steps, which I am happy about. I did not get the wrap at the arena, I was sitting in different seats from Saturday's game and that place was not near us. I wound up getting a Beyond Burger, it's a veggie burger & fries. The burger was plain on a bun, I ate the burger, half the bun and some of the fries & had a bottle of water. As soon as I finished, I started my fast. I felt like I did really well yesterday, but the scale was up a pound this morning. It frustrates me! I am going to put it behind me, back on track today! I normally go to the gym on Tuesday, but since I did not go last night, I am going tonight & do my home workout tomorrow, changing it up a bit.
I am glad it is only Wednesday & I have a few days to drop some weight! Going to really be on point with my food & exercise the rest of the week!
@sleepymom5 safe travels! Prayers are with you & your friend's family!
@Cafelelia glad your son is OK! It is crazy how so many teenagers suffer from anxiety. I think it is all the pressure they feel from social media & this fast-paced world we line in.
@Mrsbell8well sounds like you are keeping busy, getting a lot done!
Have a wonderful day!3
