I'm feeling too nervous to walk much out there - I'm sling free and my tendons are (they should be - lol) growing tissue to attach themselves nicely to bone - not taking any chances! 3 -
Go attached tendons ❣️2

I say that every morning! And cheer them one with all the freakin' protein I'm trying to get into me. It is very cool to be healing. I'm learning to use muscles I haven't used in a very long time because they were just kinda free floating! It feels like my arm is suctioned/locked/latched right into the socket now - sounds odd - feels even odder - but pretty wonderful.3

I've been hiding away in my home office busy with AGM preparation for rowing so haven't posted this week, but this is how the spreadsheet is looking up to now - today will take a bit of a nose dive as still had things to finish up this afternoon/evening so missed my workout, not many steps at work and ate some crap this evening instead of dinner. Otherwise, not terrible.

Like your chart - @tinkerbellang83. What does the yellow signify? Hope today is a good day for you.

It wasn't a great day - AGM was mentally exhausting, went to bed with a pounding head and still had it this morning waking up.
Yellow is my good intentions, the days I hope to do the things just to kind of plan my week but sometimes like this week it all goes out the window and I have to be a bit more flexible.

I like those yellow "good intention" days, @tinkerbellang83. I have them in the back of my mind also - perhaps somehow indicating them on a calendar would give them an extra boost?
This is my first checkin this week - but I didn't do too terribly - even pretty well a few times when I was flying by the seat of my pants. Steps have been painfully low - but - the snow and ice has really complicated walking. Protein has been tough too - but I ran out of my collage power this week - and that usually gives me 15 or so gram protein boost first thing in the morning. Have my new supply today!
I'm pulling these days together here to bolster my spirits in the face of a rising scale number - again
but again - this is the norm. It seems when I'm eating at a moderate deficit the scale rises, rises, rises, drops big, rises rises rises, rises drops big. I swear my body just holds on for all its worth until the day when it just can't and it is forced to let some of those ounces go. But. The next day. It regroups and it can pluck weight out of the air. I'm going to add my daily weight to these check ins - just to ??? densitize myself a bit and to normalize it in my head. This way it is just a number - rather than something to send me into a tailspin.

it does indeed look really good! I really do like the coloured table. I need to put a bit more energy into the administrative side of this journey...I know there is a difference when I do. And, I think it is causative much of the time...though sometimes it is because I'm so tickled when things go well.4

I had an awful evening yesterday, I was about to go upstairs for my workouts but got washed out with some fatigue and then had breathing difficulties similar to when I had pneumonia a long time ago. My breathing sounded like a dog's toy with a broken squeaker, it went on for about 3 hours then vanished as quickly as it came on. Needless to say I didn't get a work out in. In other news my uni course starts this week.

Yeah antigen tests widely available in supermarkets and pharmacies and if you're a close contact the health service send you a pack of 3 to test yourself and then if it comes back positive you are referred to health service for a PCR to confirm.
