@lesdarts180 Most of the time, as I read everyone's posts, I try to find a theme within the overall posts or an individual post. I consider the words to describe that feeling and then going looking with Google Images.
Thanks for asking,

@TerriRichardson112 Congratulations on getting your first vaccination. Most people don't get any reaction beyond the usual arm tenderness and some mild fatigue. Those are common to all traditional vaccines.
Best wishes,

My law firm administrator, Jessica and her husband flew in to Phoenix today. We started filming a promotional video today within the Phoenix Mountain Preserve. That seems rather odd for a Chicago metropolitan law firm, but such is life during the pandemic.
Despite that distraction, it was a 3 yes day.

1️⃣ Pass Day Used so far
I’ve been struggling and today, I got to the bottom of it, and I realized what I needed to do & not do.
Stop Starbucks✅
Stop sugar✅
Keep sodium low/water high.✅
Keep the walking stats high.✅
Weigh everything “to the gram” immediately.✅
Stock house with “clean” “non tempting foods”✅
Feel the feelings & remind myself that food won’t fix it.✅ Remembering this clicked the switch in my brain.
Eat vegetable/fruits at each meal/snack.✅
I told myself a number of times, “I am a warrior. I have done this & I will do this.”
We are warriors! We never give up!
I was hungry for breakfast & dinner in a real way I haven’t felt for awhile - and I’m a touch hungry now before bed. This is a GREAT sign. Usually if I feel hungry, I lose.5 -
Sounds like a fun project, @RangerRickL !2

Maddie, your post was very timely for me and very inspiring. Thanks2 -
Exercise: Yes, Zone 1 for an hour on the elliptical
Calories: Yes

Yesterday my weight was up in that weird cycle I mentioned. Today it's down like it has done every 10 or so days. Odd pattern but I'll take it!3 -
@MadisonMolly2017 What a wild ride you've been on the past few days. Hope you are able to get the in-person doctor visit.
@SModa61 Ooof. I burned my hand in the oven just before Christmas. The blistering is horrific for the first 3 weeks, then it's just hoping the scar doesn't stay. Perhaps try shea butter, coconut butter, rosehip oil, or some other emollient on the area.
@snowshoe072 I love your workout! Where did you get your medicine ball(s)?
@ginadomaszewicz You got this! Besides, at least this month is the shortest 🤷🏾♀️
@RangerRickL Every now and again, I save the images that you use for the daily posts. Today was one of those days. Thank you!

@maltedtea I have used aloe vera as I had plenty here from making DIY COVID hand sanitizer. I'm checking into the colloidal silver direction after @Summerskier suggested sylvadene. I have colloidal silver products here for my cats.2

NSV (because the question will come up soon ⚖, but also because I felt like sharing this as it ocurred to me 💡): a few years back, on days like yesterday I would have just thought in the evening "Tomorrow I need to start anew. Reset". The reason: with over 2000 cal consumed, I was about 500cal above my goal 🙀. Instead, I searched for a 45 min tabata workout video 💃 and burned about all that was over 🙌. Yes, suboptimal, as this happened in the evening (and I was kind of sad, because a few times during the day I felt enthusiastic about working out and just wanted "to finish this little thing" before I took me time, ending up working and working 👩💻...). BUT: I did my workout 💪, I burned as much as I ate 🐷 and it felt good 😁!
@MaltedTea : there you are again❣🤗🌻4 -
