Stupid scales! Congratulations 🎉 you worked really hard and you KNOW it. The scale is not our only measure of progress. Not even close. Try not to be disheartened. You know you’ve got this. We believe in you. Hugs!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤗

@steph1498 Can you give your email again or user name so I can find and friend you in Fitbit. Or my user name is Micki48 just like here. I don’t know why user names and screen names are different on Fitbit. Trying to invite you to join us.0

Whew! Made it through today.
I had a doctor's appointment this morning about my dreaded still-swollen and rather annoying hematoma. I thought it would be just a cursory exam and then the paperwork to get a scan, etc. if needed. It turned out to be their fun case of the day! I had every doctor and his pal in the office oooohing and ahhhhing over my impressively gigantic THING, and they decided to look at it with the ultrasound, and then to try to see if they could drain off anything. No anaesthetic. Just let's get in there with a needle and see what happens. Well, it turns out they could not drain off much because it is all coagulated blood and serum, but after opening it up a bit more, they did manage to get some of it squeezed out of there. It wasn't much fun, but less painful than the needle! They weren't happy and had hoped to remove more, but heck - anything they could try was OK with me. So now I am rather sore and cannot exercise, take a bath or shower, or have any fun for 48 hours. In another month they'll try this fun circus again. No clear prognosis - but it was sure the show of the day. Driving home was NOT fun, but DH did the grocery pick up and we can just hang out here with me in the lovely mermaid sitting position for a while. Sheesh.
Needless to say, my exercise calories and step count are gonna tank for a couple of days! I'll try to stay sane.
Keep those lovely numbers coming my way anyhow! You know how numbers make me feel better
We got all this, right???

Don't forget, it isn't important if the weight is good or bad - it is always information. Learn from the information and go from there! Don't let it get you down when it is up!8 -
Happy Thursday! Busy day with meetings and a doctor's appointment for my son. Came home and put away groceries. Got my walk in which felt great. My husband went into work and is now super stressed and I still don't know why. He is out mowing to release some energy. I guess I will find out later but @KellyBgetsfit I can totally relate. It's a crazy time for education. I couldn't imagine having to switch grade levels, move rooms, be prepared for anything...yikes.
@jugar That sounds like quite the doctors appointment! I had to have something similar done on my arm a few years ago. My husband got to hold me down, I was cursing like a sailor and my husband and the doctor were giggling like school boys the whole time. Hope you start feeling better.
@Terytha Happy anniversary and what a fun way to spend the day. Animals and fitness! Did you get a new stuffed animal for your collection? Gotta love the gift shops.
@gidgitgoescrazy The insurance extras sound pretty awesome. Nice work trying to get some extra benefits too.
@micki48 Nice job on the workouts and logging. Way to get back on track.4 -

Sounds awful. I've never thought mermaids look very comfortable...hope you can get out of that position SOON!3 -
@jugar Oh Liselyn you poor woman. That sounds just awful. I hope ultimately all their fussing with you has you feeling some relief. Take care and I have visions of you singing like Ariel, the Little Mermaid 🧜🏼♀️. Hugs 🤗💕
Oh, you're funny! I actually envision @jugar as a very slender Ursula complete with an electrified Trident, warding off the mean MDs trying to prod her fess!
But, I digress.
Steps today: 7,200
Sarah and I had a good walk this morning before it became muggy and gross. We "went" to a zoom hypnosis session with my hypnotist. It was a really nice way to settle in after our sweaty walk and the rest of the day floated along quite nicely.
I'm having a bit of a sneezing fit ("thanks Grampy!!") so, I'll sign off now.
Have a good rest. See you on the flip!

Ugh I hate when that happens, which is a lot lately. I like what @micki48 said that the scale is not the only way to measure progress. Hopefully you see some results soon!
I planned to take my dog for a walk after work but it stormed so I jogged around the house for a bit. We also had a double rainbow which was amazing!

@jugar I'm sorry you're still dealing with that hematoma. I hope you get better soon.
@conleywoods I hope whatever stressed your husband out at work has passed now.2 -

@evelynladams527 Oh THAT is really funny. Especially the trident poking.0 -
Happy Friday, Friends!
@jugar - I feel for you! Hope you don't feel too uncomfortable for too long. Puts me in mind of the time I fell through our loft floor, through the ceiling of our top landing, leaving a Yinka's-bottom-sized hole in our ceiling. Oh how we laughed! - by we I mean my husband and son. I had a bruise the size of Wales on my rear end. Other than my nether regions, not much damaged but my pride. And it was gone in a couple of weeks. But truly - I hope you recover really quickly. NO fun not being able to wash/shower or exercise. Hang in there!
Happy anniversary, @Terytha !
Thursday numbers:
6501 steps / 30 minute Leslie Sansome walk and 10 minute arms workout.
So glad it's Friday - seems to have been a tough week. Definitely having a cocktail tonight!

Just spent some time catching up on all your posts. I got off track here on the weekend. I seemed to be having a lot of problems getting into the website. But I did manage to keep logging and walking.
Has anybody else had their daily allowed calories on a mobile device differ from their computer? I tried using my phone and it gives me 80 more calories/day. Any food or exercise I enter seems to sync okay between them but the starting number continues to be different. Weird!1 -
