I like this tracker, its cute!
I'm feeling better today, but our power is off for another 2 hours. It's strange to have internet access. We have a generator.
I think the BMI is way off. My BMI is 28.20 -
@Cornanda You have a lot on your plate right now with your kids, parents, looking for a job, sick doggy, trying to get fit and healthy, and only you know what else. I just want you to know that you are in my prayers and I’m rooting for your complete success in all areas of your life.
@trooworld Woot on your loss this week! See balancing out the good with the bad can work for you.
@FushiaKat that tracker is super cute!
Hi Team! Thought I should pop on and let you know that I’m still hanging in there. This time change has me all out of sorts and the weather has been dreary and raining for two days. But I’ve been busy. Joe had a doctor’s appointment today with his primary care physician. He is slowly healing but still has a hard time walking. I dragged him to Kroger, and it took quite a while to get around the store, but he needs the exercise, so we made it work. His second round of chemo hasn’t had much effect on him, and I am super grateful for that. Soooo I’ve pretty much bailed on the spring challenge and my DDF challenge. I just can’t commit to anything other than the day that is right in front of me and I’ve come to the acceptance that it's OK for me to do that. So, each day will be what it is. I do promise to try to get in my workouts when possible and eat healthy when possible. Right now, I’m going to have a glass of wine and watch Love it Blind. Ohhhh that show is my new guilty pleasure! Have any of you watched it?

Not having a great week. All that is happening in the world is really getting me down. Got to get ahold of my eating before it takes over.2 -
My Spring Challenge commitment is:
1) Read for 30 minutes a day or use my Scroll Saw - I Read the Institute, almost done.
2) Move at least 30 minutes a day or walk 3000 steps - 2837 steps so far today.
3) Weigh everyday - 164.9
I went to pick up thyroid medication for my Cat, then I stopped in at Sam's Club, my fizzy water went on sale today. While I was there this guy was loading strawberries into a cooler case and I just could not resist so I bought a box. OMG they are divine, and the calories are acceptable. I just added a new food to my menu. I had to eat a few; I just could not wait. I'm having 400 grams of strawberries today, and I'm not feeling guilty about it. I'm going to slowly add in different foods now, I'm ready to expand my menu.
I bought a medium size blouse on Amazon and fit like a glove, but I like my shirts with a bit of give so they don't hug my roles of fat for all the world to see. I put it with my other too small shirts and will try it on now and then to see if it's to my liking. I bought a size 10 skirt, and I will see how that fits when it gets here too.
@TeresaW1020 just take one day at a time, you know best. Prayers and hugs to you and Joe.
@Cornanda I hope you find a job that's to your liking soon. If somebody put mac and cheese in front of me I'm sure I'd just eat some, and think about it later. I don't know how you resist. I love Lasagna too, basically anything with Pasta.
@Katmary71 Thank you I am feeling better today. I'm going to look up skinnytaste's Giant Parmesan Turkey Meatball that sounds delicious. Actually I just printed out the recipe and will pick up the ingredients when I'm at the market the next time.0 -
@katmary71 I used to use the skinny taste website all the time, I don’t know why I got off there. I think I will have to give it another go, I love Greek pasta salad and am going to definitely give that giant Parmesan turkey meatball a try!! Glad you are enjoying switching your workout up, it sure is nice for a change sometimes!
@cornanda I am petrified of going for an interview, I have not actually had to go for an interview in over 30 years, I find that idea terrifying! It is such a different world, it used to be word-of-mouth and now it is all on websites, so bizarre. But you are right, we will figure this out!
Modifying exercises is the key to success! When I am doing my weight class an interval class, sometimes I am modifying 25% of what they are doing LOL. I think it’s awesome that you are concentrating on strength, I find it very empowering when I am feeling strong and able to accomplish things! Sometimes comfort food, is good for the soul. You have so much going on right now, just really enjoy your kids and your time with them. Sorry to hear about your daughters acid reflux, that’s tough! Adult children can be very challenging at times, it sounds like your son is giving you a run for your money;).
You really are in the sandwich stage of life. You are right in the middle of your parents on one side and your kids on the other, both requiring YOU, super challenging phase. That is even more challenging with a sibling who has mental health issues. Just keep on hanging onto those who are supporting you and lifting you up♥️
Thinking of you!!
@trooworld congrats on the loss! Your good decisions obviously outweighed the bad :-).
&fushiakat Super cute tracker
@TeresaW1020 I am glad that Jo isn’t feeling any really bad after effects of the second round of chemo. Poor guy, it is so hard to heal when you have so much going on physically. One day at a time, is a great way to do it! Sometimes life really just throws up too many road blocks, so concentrating on that one day is definitely the best way and not nearly so overwhelming! I loved love is blind! Are you watching season one or two? I have watched both, now I won’t say anymore because I don’t want to be a spoiler LOL
I had a pretty good day, went to Physio, I am still dealing with the after affects after the fall I took on the ice a few weeks ago, but definitely getting better.
Yesterday when I was at the grocery store they had a huge sale in the meat department. I bought enough for about two months and spent the afternoon cooking it all up cutting it into individual portions and it is more in the freezer. I can just throw it into something for a quick meal. The ice is slowly but surely melting around here, I am hoping, by the end of the week that I won’t have to wear spikes on my boots anymore!! You have no idea how much that excites me🤣0 -
@Cornanda I'm glad you like the turkey meatball too, that's my favorite of her turkey recipes. Heather Robinson is a good instructor, I've done some of her videos on YouTube. Enjoy going out to eat! Sounds like you have your hands full with family, I'm glad you have a good support system to help you deal with all of it.
@trooworld Congratulations on the loss! Glad meditation is helping you with anxiety, it's not something I thought I'd ever like but it's pretty awesome. Two more days until the weekend!
@TeresaW1020 I'm so glad Joe is responding well to the chemo, I'd imagine with all he has going on that's why healing is slow but that he's coping with treatment is wonderful. I'm glad you're feeling better about letting some things go with all you have going on, you're doing an incredible job with everything on your plate right now. I think sometimes we underestimate how much we're really doing toward our goals because we can't do everything at once. What is Love Is Blind? I'm watching the Real Housewives right now, 1000lb Friends (I watched 2 and want to hang out with them so we're 1152lb friends) is pretty good too but that's the extent of my reality TV these days, they suck you in like quicksand!
@FushiaKat Oh I'm glad you got some good strawberries, yum! I've been wanting some but figured they wouldn't be good yet, now I have to reconsider! I hope you enjoy the Giant Parmesan Turkey Meatball, I think you will! I made it for my brother and my ex-boyfriend and they both loved it too, it's very popular in the Skinnytaste Facebook group.
@Laurelfit57 Her recipes are pretty awesome, there was one I didn't have something for and it didn't come out that great but I tried it again with the right ingredient and was happy with it that time, it was the Santa Fe zucchini. Everything else I really enjoyed. We should have a Giant Parmesan Turkey Meatball night! Glad you're recovering from the fall and physio went well. I love having a good stock of food in my house, I get stressed when I run low so I'm sure it feels good to have your freezer full.
Hi everyone. I'm having my every few month back flare-up, it seems to happen every time I try to go up on weights. My body muscles can handle it but the degeneration between my shoulder blades can't, I'm really thinking I'd be better with machines instead of free weights but now I have to recover before I can go to the gym. I stopped lifting when I felt the first twinge but it was too late. My doctor called in a bunch of tests so I went to Trader Joe's to get a protein bar so I didn't pass out then went to my doctor's office to pick up a note then address not being able to fill my prescription. I planted some more flower seeds then have been resting the rest of the day and took a bath which felt awesome (Epsom salts, ACV, and bubble bath). I'm going to go read now, I'll have to stop working out for a few days. Of course it was garbage day and all my laundry is in the dryer, seems to always happen when it goes out. At least the litterboxes are full so I don't have to deal with that pail! Have a great Thursday team!0 -
@FushiaKat Yes it is! You are doing great. Enjoy the strawberries.
@TeresaW1020 Thanks! Yes. I'm glad you are getting Joe out and about. Yes, it's okay to just stick to day to day, sometimes that's all we can do and that's just fine. I haven't watched that show but someone told me about it. Do you like it?
@laurelfit57 Thank you! I'm glad you are getting better but sorry you are still suffering after-effects. That was a good idea to stock up on the meat. It's so expensive nowadays!
@Katmary71 Thank you! Yes, meditation is helping a lot. I'm so glad it's almost the weekend. I'm sorry about the back flare-up. Take care of yourself.
Hi all. More anxiety yesterday. I had a headache and stomachache from it. I ended up leaving work 2 hours early because of it. Anxiety sucks. I did have a healthy dinner, I made a Mexican salad with some shrimp I seasoned and stuck in the air fryer. It was really good.
My Spring Challenge commitment is:
1) Exercise 3 days a week - No
2) Drink 50 oz of water a day - 50 oz drank

@trooworld - yay for the loss of pounds and inches! I'm going to pray that your anxiety gets calmed down. It doesn't feel good and the added bonus of stomach aches and headaches is not fun. Your Mexican salad sounds yummy! Hugs to you too!
@FushiaKat - I love your tracker. So cute. You are just killing it on meeting your goals! Whoo hoo! Yay for getting new clothes. Strawberries are a yummy low cal treat. I hope you can find a few other new things to add to your routine. If you get too bored with food, it's easy to get off track.
@TeresaW1020 - thank you for the prayers. It means a lot to me. I continue to pray for you and Joe. For health and strength for the journey for you both. And that whatever needs you have will be met. I'm sooooo glad he's doing well with the chemo. A grocery store walk was an excellent idea to get him moving. You have so much on your plate and doing what you can when you can is fine for now. Hugs to you too!
@laurelfit57 - I haven't interviewed in 12 years. It IS scary. But what I remember from the past is that each interview makes the next one easier. You get used to the questions and smooth out your answers. You got this! Thank you for thinking of me and understanding my sandwich life! Getting those boot spikes off will be awesome!
@Katmary71 - Oh no about your back! Sounds like you are taking good care of yourself while it heals! Wishing you a speedy recovery! Will be praying for that also!
Yesterday, I did not eat enough veggies- took daughter out for lunch, also went out for dinner. Had an appt, so only got walking done yesterday. It's time to get going on today's exercise. Strangely my weight is down. We'll see if that holds tomorrow. I'm going to be sure to wipe the dust off my scale so there's no extra weight on there. Not sure how it gets dusty since I weigh every day and wipe it down every week......
Took the dog to the vet yesterday. Because he is doing fine and I wanted to get a bit more info from her on his disease. Last time we were there, she squeezed him in because he was so sick and of course I thought of questions after I left. She was absolutely amazed at how he is doing. She said she did not expect him to be alive right now, let alone doing better. He's put a bit of weight back on.- he's no longer skeletal. She said to enjoy it as long as it lasts because at some point his disease will act up again and that will be it. Because we are doing everything we can do. I'm so glad for this temporary reprieve with all that is going on right now. I think we got a little miracle.

I'm really tired. I've been staying until 12:00 - 12:30 am so I sleep thru the night until 7am. At least I've not been up eating pickles in the night. I think I need a nap tomorrow morning to catch up on some sleep. I never feel rested when I wake up in the mornings. Mornings are usually really bad for me. I usually feel rested after a nap but my sleep doctor said not to take them so I will sleep thru the night. I think it will be okay to nap every now and then, I can't keep dragging myself around all day. I might need to go back to going to bed at 11:30 and eating pickles at 2 am. I wonder if that's why I'm getting headaches now, I've had to take a migraine tablet the last 3 days. Goodnight, everybody I hope you have a really good Friday.

I had some very bad news Monday afternoon and it threw me off - not as bad in the eating area, as in my sleep and water retention. Most mornings I can’t make a fist 😩. Scale jumped crazy up and down so the current number is irrelevant.
My 6*week exercise to end of April is still going on, with varied degrees of enthusiasm - oh well.

@Cornanda Oh it was @FushiaKat that lost the pounds and inches. I did lose a little bit this week though, so thanks!
And thanks about the anxiety, I appreciate it. Great job on the walking and your weight going down. I'm so glad your pup is doing okay. Thank you for updating us on him. You do have a little miracle! Hugs to you, too, Lisa.
@FushiaKat Great job on your goals!
@GabiV125 I'm sorry about your bad news.
Hi all. Yesterday's workday was actually worse than the day before, believe it or not! Something happened with my director that really pissed me off. I kept my cool and responded professionally but I was anxious and fuming all day long. I did stop right after it happened and took my dog for a longer walk, that felt good. I'm hoping today is a better day and I get through it okay until the start of the weekend. TGIF.

Good morning everyone!
Happy Friday to ya!
I'm off to exercise in a bit but had to check in since I haven't in a few days. Busy days continue to roll on. Going to help make souvenir books for church today and that will probably take all day but will be fun. I love making things. Then I'll rest the rest of the day. In all this busyness I've had, I haven't eaten with the best habits but it hasn't been absolutely terrible. I desire to do better....and I will. Absolutely! Moving the body has been a constant so that's good.
Have a blessed day everyone and let's go get it!

@FushiaKat I love fresh strawberries too! Thanks for the prayers!
@laurelfit57 We are on season one of Love it Blind. It’s a fun show. Joe isn’t into it as much as I am but he tolerates it so I make him watch. And don’t worry about spoilers, I’ve already Googled which couples are still together from season one.
@Katmary71 Love is Blind is a reality show on Netflix where couples meet each other in little rooms called pods. They can’t see each other and for ten days they try to make a love connection. The ones that do get engaged, finally see each other, go on a vacation, meet each other’s families, and in four weeks maybe get married. It’s a fun show and if you like reality you need to check it out.
@Cornanda That is wonderful that your dog is showing so much improvement. Just love him for as long as you can. I always find it weird that we can eat off-plan and our weight will go down and then there are the days we do perfectly and our weight goes up. Makes you want to throw the scales out the window.
@trooworld I hope things get better at work. Will there be tension between you and your director now? Since Joe’s fall, I’ve been walking Maggie Mae and finding it very relaxing to just be outside breathing fresh air and enjoying the spring weather.
Good morning Team! I woke up with my back hurting. I cleaned both church buildings yesterday and there was a lot of vacuuming that had to be done so I think that didn’t help. Plus, I’ve had to help Joe get up so much, that I’m sure that doesn’t help. So, I’m taking off from working out today and will do some light housework. We have to go get blood work done at the cancer center today too. Joe had a really rough morning yesterday and I had to miss my staff meeting until he was feeling better. Today he is much better and we are both thankful for that.

@katmary71 I made the giant meatball last night, it is currently sitting in my fridge! I will ask my grandkids if they want the giant meatball for supper or regular meatballs, the rest is going to be chopped up and put in my freezer :-) :-)
So sorry that you are having a flareup. I feel like at times the machines can be better when we are dealing with injuries, they stay in position and there is less room for error on our part. I hope the doctor that you saw yesterday was able to take care of your concerns, I think I remember your past Dr. wasn’t the best. And nothing better than a soak in Epson salts!
@trooworld lol I have meat paloosa going on in my fridge right now. Everything cooked and ready to be frozen. I even made up a big pot of marinara sauce!
Really sorry that you are suffering with your anxiety, it can have such a large amount of side effects that go with it. Your dinner sounds delicious and healthy!
I’m sure your Doggo enjoyed the extra long walk!
@askewcr Making souvenir books sounds like fun! If you are moving that is a very good thing!
@cornanda I agree with you, getting some interviews under my belt will be very helpful! I have actually hired someone to write my résumé, I know I am totally out of my depths in this day and age. I am right there with you with the sandwich life. My mom is 93, although my brothers love her to death and are very supportive, it is up to me. Even when your kids are adults, they still need that support and at times guidance when life gets very challenging.
I had to wipe off my scale on Tuesday, i’m sure I didn’t do it well enough though, that definitely contributed to the extra 4 pounds😅. I am so happy to hear about your pupper, what a blessing♥️♥️♥️
@fushiakat so sorry you were struggling with your sleep. Unfortunately that is something I am Intimately familiar with. Sometimes we know our bodies better than our doctors as far as sleep goes, I listen to them for years about what I was supposed to do, to no avail. I now do my own thing and I’m actually successful I’m getting between 5.5 and 6.5 hours sleep per night, which is great for me! Hope you were able to get this figured out
@GabiV125 Really sorry that you are struggling so hard, but super glad that you are able to keep up with your six week exercise program!
@Teresaw1020 please do take care of yourself and your back! I always hear my son’s voice in my head (he used to be a personal trainer) “lift with your legs lift with your legs!” So glad Joe is doing better today. Those kind of shows are good for this day and age, somethings silly and fluffy we don’t have to concentrate on too hard! Lol
@davidji82 congrats on the loss!
It was a great day yesterday. I made the giant meatball, it looks and smells amazing! I also cooked up a ton of little meatballs, spaghetti squash, about 30 chicken breasts and three steaks (all cut up and ready to put in a stirfry or on sheet pan vegetables).
Then I went to a hockey game with my daughter last night, we won, yay!! It was a very fun night!!
Now I really have to get a move on and get all my stretching done, I have a busy day in front of me!
This is what my fridge looks like this morning 🤣

@trooworld- goodness, never heard you talk about drama at work before. I sure hope that goes away. Good job on walking for stress relief.
@GabiV125 - I'm sorry about your bad news. Keep at it with your challenge- anything you can get done helps.
@askewcr - enjoy your fun and rest today.
@FushiaKat - Hope you feel better and you figure out the sleep thing.
@TeresaW1020 - rest that back and feel better soon!
@laurelfit57 - thanks! Your fridge looks wonderful! All this work will be so helpful to you going forward. And you even fit in a hockey game for some fun! Yes, it's always the daughters who help the parents. I'm glad we can share our "sandwich times" together lol.
I really didn't "deserve" to lose anything this week, but I did. Last night I had a piece of lasagna and a lot of veggies. Then my daughter left to go back to school and I got sad, so I ate the garlic knot that I was NOT going to eat before weigh in. Other very deserving weeks I have gained. As @Teresaw1020 says, it makes you want to throw the scale out the window! I guess it just shows that sometimes if you shake up your routine, your body is confused and will reward you. Has anyone else found this to be true?
Well, my son told me that he doesn't want to participate in the graduation ceremony. He has his reasons and they are valid. I'm sort of disappointed, but I understand. My 7 week challenge is no longer about getting into a dress for that. However, I'm going to keep it focused as a birthday gift to myself. When I don't want to work out, I'll remind myself that it is for ME! We shall see how that works out. I still want to do this!

Quick check in. Life sure can take you where you don't want to go. My oldest sister died Tuesday morning. Only 56 years old and died from pneumonia because the doctors kept telling her she was ok and didn't need extra antibiotics. What 56 year old dies from pneumonia?!? Anyway, I am next-of-kin, so I have to authorize all the decisions. I have to travel to Iowa to pick up her cremains and belongings. My Aunt from Arizona will be here in Michigan on Sunday so she said she'd travel with me so I don't have to go alone. As you can guess, the emotions got to me and I decided I just can't handle the restrictions of the Daniel Fast right now (at least I made it 16 days, tho). I made vegan cheeze quesadillas yesterday and just savored them. I'm still doing just fine with being soda-free, so at least there's that.
I hope everyone has a good weekend. And not to be morbid, but make sure you have proper life insurance on your loved ones...my sister didn't have any.

Well, good morning all!
I want to say things are great but my ankle and heel are hurting again. When I got up yesterday morning, it was sore but this morning the pain is more intense.
I've had this before and went to the ER but they didn't find anything. It just had to wear off with some icing and rest. I guess I'll slow down now at least for a few days.
I didn't go to the gym after my post yesterday because the heel and ankle felt more sore as the morning went on and as I walked. So glad I didn't because it might have put me in a worse situation than I'm in now.
I didn't get to make the books yesterday because the storms came with thunder, lightening, and hail just as I was about to go out and I was going to my sister-in-law's office. The hail is what stopped me because when you have a new car, hail just doesn't need to be something you just ride in. It stormed basically all afternoon and into the night. I will go today even though I'm using this cane.
Blessings everybody and let's go get it however we can!

@TeresaW1020 Thanks, they are. There has been tension between us for a while due to another incident. At least on my side towards them. Nothing new! LOL I'm glad you are getting out with Maggie Mae, she probably loves it and it's good for you too! I'm sorry your back is giving you trouble again. I'm glad Joe is better today. Hugs!
@davidji82 Congrats on the loss!
@laurelfit57 That's awesome! Wow, you are ready for the week! LOL I'm glad your team won, that's always fun. Thanks, you are right about the side effects of anxiety. Dinner was delicious and healthy! Yes, she enjoyed it although she is not much for walking lol.
@Cornanda Congrats on the loss which is really impressive considering all that is going on! Thanks, yeah, I don't have much drama at work but when it rains, it pours lol. I have definitely found it to be true that if you shake things up, sometimes you are rewarded. I'm sorry your son wasn't want to participate in graduation but good for you for keeping focused!
@vegan4lyfe2012 I'm so very sorry about your sister. That is so tragic. My heart goes out to you and your family. You did very well with the Daniel fast so don't worry about that. Thanks for the reminder of the life insurance, I do have it but some may not. Hugs.
@micaroo4 Wow, what a stunning photo, I love the way the trees embrace the path like they are protecting you. Thanks for sharing!
Hi all. Things at work are better. I did really well yesterday: I started out the day by doing a walking video. I ate pretty healthily all day ending with dinner which was homemade pizza and salad, I had 2 pieces when I usually would have 4 so that's a good NSV I'll put in my NSV book.

@laurelfit57 yeah, I do try to lift with my legs. I think most of my back issues have come from helping Joe get out of chairs. Yesterday, I didn’t have to help him once and this morning I feel much better. Is a giant meatball the same as a meatloaf? I’m making meatloaf today, which will be good but it’s the cold meatloaf sandwich for tomorrow that I’m wanting more than anything else. Your fridge looks great and like you have no excuses for this week not to eat on plan. 
@Cornanda Congrats on your loss this week! And yes, I totally believe in the need to shake up the body from time to time. I’m sure your son is doing what is best for him. And good for you for still being determined to get into that dress!
@vegan4lyfe2012 Ohhh my goodness!! I am so incredibly sorry for the loss of your precious sister! Yes, no one who is 56 should die of pneumonia but I do know that pneumonia can be extremely dangerous. It put me in the ICU for four days a few years ago because I didn’t pay enough to the fact that I couldn’t breathe. I wonder if that also happened to your sister. You take care of yourself!!
@micarro4 those birch trees are so beautiful!
@askewcr so sorry you are in pain and yes, you need to rest and use ice until you feel better. Good call on not going to the gym. We had some fairly intense storms up in my area yesterday too.
@trooworld good job on getting some exercise yesterday and only eating 2 pieces of pizza. That must have been hard considering how good ya’ll cook!
Good morning! Today is a stay-at-home and get stuff done kind of day. The yellow Georgia pollen is starting to fall so we are going to cover up our porch furniture with plastic. We did this last year and it made cleaning up so much easier. I put a new app on my phone and computer called Todolist. So far I love it and hoping it will cut down on my overuse of yellow sticky notes that clutter my desk every day. OK, I’m off to do a leg workout and get this day started.

@vegan4lyfe2012 - I'm so sorry about your sister. I'm glad that your aunt will travel with you. Hugs and hang in there.
@micaroo4 - lovely pic!
@Glombog - welcome back!
@askewcr - I hope you feel better quickly!
@trooworld - sounds like you had a terrific day yesterday! Now hit "repeat".....
@TeresaW1020 - the turkey meatball is like meatloaf. But it has an Italian flavor to it. I'm glad your back is better and that Joe is having less trouble getting out of chairs. We have that yellow pollen here too... hmph.
Quiet weekend. Ran/walked a bit and then walked a lot. Did a bunch of yard work. Now it's time for cleaning and projects!
