    @knlizght - I'm sorry you weren't feeling good after the vaccine - but happy that you were able to get it. As for the dieting, you've been doing amazing work so it will be no problem for you to get back on track.

    MUAC for 1/24/21:
    Tracked: yes
    Under: yes
    Exercised: yes - 40 minutes walking dog

    I think I was able to stay on track because I ate lots of fruits and vegs and my protein was 26% of daily intake.

    Forgot to add: I made sure to track mid-day, so I think that helped as well.

    We did a lot of yard work yesterday, so not as many steps, but it all balanced out. Best news is hubby and I both worked in the same general vicinity without crabbing at each other which is a BIG improvement. (we both are stubborn and think we know the best way to do things.)

    100% I’d rather have the vaccine than a ventilator 😎

    @knlizght I'm sorry the vaccine made you feel so bad. Was it the first or the second dose?

    @annabananamc Happy Birthday wishes to you. I am glad you and your hubby got through the work peacefully. I understand what you mean. I always know the best way to do things, too. 😄

    @annabananamc being in the same vacinity as my husband 24/7 has been the hardest part of teleworking these last ten months. 😂

    @annabananamc being in the same vacinity as my husband 24/7 has been the hardest part of teleworking these last ten months. 😂

    Oh I hear you there! I started full time work in April, and I used to travel at least a week a month, and hubby worked at the office three days a week and home two.

    Now we are both on Zoom all day and our office/desks are about ten feet from each other through one thin door. He seems to think he needs to talk at 'coach in a busy gym' volume at his meetings, too. I can't sneak away to the cafe with my laptop either.

    Thank you for the opportunity to vent -lol! Somehow we are surviving it all and oh so grateful to have these jobs!

    Weigh in, January Week 26 😜
    Last week 330lbs
    This week 334lbs

    Sorry guys, I had my covid vaccine this week and it absolutely floored me! After 48hrs with a fever and chills I just ate ate ate - and ate some more - I was like a possessed animal, literally ate enough to feed a small village 😜 But I’m over it now and I’m ready to get back to some normality and self care! ✅

    Glad you are feeling better. I have heard of a lot of folks not feeling well after the vaccine.

    Yesterday I didn't get my walk in until evening, but I was treated to the most glorious sunset and full moon rising as a result. That rocks!

    @erikNJ got to tell you I am walking like crazy but ate my calories up with junk food today. Didn't go over but did get myself a little bit of a sugar high. so, yes, not January is a long month.

    @erikNJ I can relate to that. Take a couple of days off and start February strong on Monday. Just don't go TOO far off. 😉

    @cmhubbard92 and @brandi_84 can I carry my weight over this week? I won't be anywhere near a scale on Friday. It can be my starting weight for February also. Thanks!

    I’m gonna keep trying until the weekend.
    My wife gave me the same advice ... there is that song “Man Smart, Woman Smarter”. Maybe I should listen
