    Hoping to get to the computer tomorrow to write out my answer to "my why". What a great thought provoking question. I have been thinking and have my thoughts in order.. now just to get to the real keyboard and time alone to write (and no lie prob cry!)

    Also... I have been inspired by others answers here to that and wish each of you success on your journey to reaching your goals.

    I am definitely still learning new things about my body.. just reviewed my bp pattern and realized that while I am holding on the border before meds.. and NEED to make changes, I AM holding so thats okay for what this past year has thrown my way. I stress when its up but digging into the numbers I realized how much medicating for my knee and calf spiked that number... and I've medicated ALOT this past month so hoping my doc sees what I see.

    I will end with this question... is anyone here doing Intermittent Fasting? I did it before and thats how I lost most of that weight I lost. I also realized in doing this that I naturally tend to lean toward IF patterns in my general eating pattern... less that binge eating night snacks and stress snacks. Since starting back with IF I noticed that Intentional stop to my night had been helping me cut those out.

    If you're just a little over you can count it as a yes. Today I'm about 30 over but it really is nothing and since I don't log exercises in the app even tho I exercise I've surely burned them😁

    Hi everyone! I didn't log my food for a couple of days but restarting today.. I thought about something I read a really long time ago because I got kinda down standing in front of my mirror before my shower this morning.. When you start back up with healthy living.. and whatever that looks like to you.. you will always feel better first before you look better.. and that is what I am going to focus on.. My energy is going up, my body hurts a little less in the joints and it takes me longer to get out of breath when I go for a walk.. the NSVs are important.. Also, I find that if I change the narrative in my head from "I didn't" to "I did" it helps... so instead of saying "I didn't work out today" I say all the things I did do today to add to my health bucket.. so far today I had a lot of veggies for breakfast, I drank a lot of water, I picked a healthier lunch option, I went for a walk.

    Keep up the great work everyone!!! Even if the scale doesn't reflect our hard work, that's ok!! and even if you didn't put 100% in today, that's ok too.. baby steps are better than standing still or walking backwards.. ok rant over! Thanks for coming to my tedtalk.. :D

    @mhoss2 Thank you very much for the Ted Talk! It was most insightful and inspirational!!

    @gsheppy I am happy for you!! Congratulations on going for your first walk in a year, and I hope the PT exercises can help with the grinding feeling.

    @gsheppy. Congrats on the walk... hope it will get easier with pt! What did you have done to your meniscus? I had a root repair Aug 2020 and it was a longer recovery then I thought and while still not great yet...the knee is so much better then where it was before surgery!

    I know I said I was gonna write out my why. . But life gets in my way. Maybe I will have to resort to writing it in a note on the phone and transferring it here cause time at my desk and computer sure isnt happening like I thought it would. Guessing we all know about that time thing... I can say I opted to walk vs sit/type yesterday in my 25 min notice before visitors arrived... but a parent drop by I am not gonna turn down...have to make time for family.

    Traveling again tomorrow and next day so hoping another college town will bring me some walking time cause I will be sitting alot on the long drives. Fingers crossed for good (and right!) Food orders this time.

    Hope everyone has a great week!

    Went home from work today. I have an eye infection, so I got an antibiotic. Not sure why I keep getting them, I'm careful, wash my hands and use hand sanitizer all the time. I keep thinking it has to do with having to wear a mask all the time. This is the 3rd one since 2020. Have a Wonderful Wednesday Team TBBT. 🍂🍗🍁🦃💞

    @sandkp. I had a clean up of the meniscus oct 6. It was a minor procedure. I was walking around with no pain. I was shocked. What is a root??

    How do you do the quote box. I really don’t know how. It would be so much easier to reply at the post.
