Uhhh had dental work done today. All I’ve had is half a cup of coffee, two pieces of raisin bread can of cola and a tiny bit of chips. My mouth is so not happy5

Hugs going out to all of you having a tough Tuesday - things just pile up sometimes. I hope it all smooths out soon
It has been very quiet, cool, and sunny here - the garden is slowly coming to its end of season, and I'm getting all the veggies picked, processed in whatever way they need, and put away. Still a lot more tomatoes, basil, eggplant, and chard on the way - but most everything else is done. I'm completely out of containers for the freezer
Wednesday is @EvMakesChanges (my little sister!) birthday - and weigh-in day. What perfect timing - don't forget to weigh in before any party food, Ev! I hope you have a great day
So, speaking of Wednesday weigh-ins - here is the heads up list for tomorrow:
@AshenMoon
@EvMakesChanges
@KellyBgetsFit
@MoStacy
@coramae7417
A couple of people are overdue - get 'em in! No late penalties, I promise...

@Kali225 wait who me? I never take selfies, my profile pic has been the same since ages haha. But srsly, that"s great because selfies require mad skills. I have been trying to take a decent one for 2 months now. You should start practising asap so that you are a pro by the time you reach your goal weight.4

Dessert can be included in the total calorie count for the day - nothing wrong with that as long as you stay under! And you did - bravissima5 -
Happy Hump Day all!
@Kali225 It's official - I hate Bulgarian lunges! I had a sore butt for about 2 days after that workout!
@EvMakesChanges - Happy birthday!
@conleywoods - So glad to hear that your little man's Covid results were negative. Air Hugs for the stress that you're going through with school, though!
@micki48 - I'm with you on feeling so fed up with things. I've gone back to rationing my news intake again. I also find that I am being really mindful whenever I do a workout so that I can enjoy the time that I'm taking for myself. Your hula hooping sounds good, too!
I'm enjoying today because I'm working in the cafe tomorrow. I have a Zoom meeting this evening so Ben's cooking, but I've managed to be quite productive throughout the day, so I'm feeling happy.

"eventful cleaning the house" sounds kind of ominous. Cleaning is not supposed to be eventful - what did you find? drop? slip on? throw through the window? use to hit someone on the head?
It was one of those kind of non-event days here too. Pulling up cattail roots before the pond refills (SO exciting), more garden picking and cleaning, a cheese shredding and chard chopping marathon. I did get some music playing in, but skipped Pilates after all the root pulling - I think that was enough core work for the day! Wild thunderstorms blowing through now with dramatic lightning. Internet will be gone soon, I'll bet!
Hopefully some weigh-ins will be coming my way soon...4 -
@jugar and all: thank you for the birthday wishes! I’ve had a good day. The warm breezes were pleasant and even though many of my morning plans changed at the last minute, I had a nice dinner out at a local restaurant…first time in ages! I ate well above my normal daily quota and had chocolate cake for dessert. I’m sure I’ll work it off in the coming weeks, provided I get outside and move more than I’ve been able to in the past couple of weeks. Don’t get me wrong - I love naps but when it’s encouraged as part of the daily healing routine, it gets a little boring!
As soon as I replace my dang computer with a slightly newer MacBook Pro (hint, hint), i’ll be able to catch up with everybody's posts.
Have a great night. I’ll weigh in tomorrow.

Didn’t weigh in on Monday. We took a few days of vacation time to a nice quiet B and B in the middle of no where. No cell service. No wifi. Just relaxation.5

Evening all!
Started the day with a nice 30 minute yoga practice, and had a walk at lunch, but tonight was full of sewing with a friend and so my activity stalled out and I came up short. It's late, I have a busy day ahead again tomorrow, and I decided to just leave it as is rather than do anything more before bed. Sometimes you just have to be adaptable!

Sorry for lateness! This weight is from Monday, but I kept losing track of time to log-in and catch up on everyone's posts.
PW: 165.9
CW: 164.4
@DD265 I totally feel you on the 'finally finding this hard' concept. I'm also 8ish months in. I was definitely paying super close attention to food and getting a TON of steps in the whole time, but I was initially seeing the payoff. So it was tough, but at least I was felt successful and like results were happening. Things have slowed down a LOT recently, and that's been frustrating and led to multiple relapses. It's kind of scary how easy it is to fall into old habits and undo a bunch of good days...
As I mentioned before, I've been seesawing between 160 and 170 since May/June. Hoping to finally break into the 150s, but I haven't been feeling great so we'll see how next week goes (might be a red, sorry in advance 😬). I'm trying to summon the energy to try running again because I've stalled on that and I do think it will give me a boost.7 -

Hopefully back on track next week!
@TessieMac833 @ashleycarole86 @bowens1973
You are seriously boosting our team numbers for this week! Great job - and Brad? You ARE hitting onederland very, very soon. Party time! What are you going to do to celebrate your amazing progress?5 -
@jugar speaking of plateaus.. it's almost time for my second maintenance break of my weight loss! How exciting. For those who don't recall (and it was so long ago I'm sure most don't), I am doing a planned two week maintenance break every 16 weeks (and I'm sure I'll drop the time period between when I take them as I get to a lower weight).
So, I'll enjoy my good numbers now because I do intend to try to hold steady for two weeks... think it's a good rest period for my body. I'll also happen to be on holidays for that time, but it was just coincidence that it fell that way (lucky me!)
I have another night of sewing tonight (working a top secret surprise project for Brad) and work is kicking my butt so I know my activity is going to be low again today.. just not enough hours! But, I do not fret over this.. since I eat back exercise calories it just means I eat less, which is totally fine when I plan for it.
Have a lovely day everyone3
