    My husband and I have done this a couple of times together at a place that has a couples float tank.. I too love the experience!

    That's awesome! I've heard of couple's tanks, but there isn't one anywhere near me. Is the tank you go to open or does it still have a hinged lid? Pretty sure I'd never get my guy into a closed tank but maybe an open one.

    At the place we go the couple tank is open versus the individual tanks that are closed. It's quite nice - still wouldn't know there was a lid or not given how dark it is but yeah if the idea of it being closed gives him the creeps that would be a good idea for you two!

    Previous days
    11/18 Scale is still being weird. Did a nice recovery run this morning clocking in at 5.75 miles and an average of 11:42/mile. I’m now at my cousin’s place watching his English bull dogs until Sunday. I have brought lots of healthy foods with me and will be making myself chili (I have been craving it for weeks now) tomorrow for dinner. Dinner tonight will be Amy’s frozen Indian meals with a piece of naan. Breakfast and lunch was also on point today as well. I’m hoping my body and scale sort out the wonkiness so I can get a decent reading on the scale again. On the bright side, my running is getting better 😊.
    11/19 Did not post
    11/20 Went for an epic run yesterday and a nice long slow run this morning. Did not weigh, still at my cousin’s place watching his two bull dogs. Food has been great and I even had a non scale victory of not eating this salted caramel blondie thing that’s here. I realized how much one serving was and realized it wasn’t worth the calories because it was about 200 calories for 1.5 oz. Instead of the brownie I had a serving of full fat plain yogurt (120 calories) with one of the peanut butter cookies(90 calories) I made and a tbs of the chocolate hazelnut butter (100 calories) for a total of 300ish calories and a whole lot more satisfying than 4 bites of a brownie.
    Breakfast today: prerun- 2 raspberry zucchini corn muffins post run-full fat plain yogurt, honey crips apple, tbls chocolate hazelnut butter, 2 flourless peanut butter cookies plus a scoop of protein powder in water on the side. Lunch is going to be leftover chili and mac and cheese. Dinner will be a veggie miso broth based soup with a couple of eggs.
    11/21 Did not weigh. Rest day. Headed home from dog sitting. Food has been good today but I just feel hungry in general even though I’ve eaten a amount of calories. I think I’m more hungry because I had less sleep this weekend than I normally get.
    11/22 117.8 Post workout. Finally, back at a number I don’t mind seeing. Those 120 readings were making me nervous. I ran 6 miles this morning and plan to do my strength workout today during my lunch break. Breakfast was a strawberry beet smoothie (frozen strawberries, 1 small beet, frozen peaches, pumpkin seeds, peanuts, ginger, and coconut water), lunch will be akmak crackers with tahini and a drizzle of honey with an apple and maybe an ounce of cheese, and then dinner will be about 8oz of marinated skirt steak in a bulgogi marinade and the side will be brown rice, broccoli, and carrots. Feeling good! Happy Monday everyone!


    Also, has anyone made their own water kefir? I'm looking into it but trying to figure out the time committment involved with it. I used to make my own kombucha. Water kefir seems a little less involved but it has a faster fermentation time, so I'm wondering if it all evens out because there would be more days a week I'm working with the water kefir versus one Saturday or Sunday morning for a couple of hours with the kombucha. I love the bubbly fermented drinks but they just get so expensive at $3+ per bottle.
