JUST GIVE ME 10 Days - Round 181

@musicsax & @kamaboko1 I thought the same thing yesterday. If I were you, I would try to cut some of those carbs. In my case, they are evil. Also, it takes my body 2-3 days to register what I have eaten so give yourself time for your body to catch up. 😘6

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
People say keto/LCHF isn’t sustainable. I’ve been doing it for over 4.5 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

3/18 119.0 Meeting DGD#3 at her ultrasound appt today. I get to see DGGB#1 (great-grand baby) “in action!” I’m so excited!!
3/19 121.0 Baby was sticking out tongue and appeared to be saying “Hi Mom” on ultrasound. OMAD yesterday was Golden Corral with neighbors. That is all. 😁😁
3/20 121.5 Continued uptick from GC. Ketones up from yesterday(good) and fasting glucose down(also good.) AND TMI after weighing! GKI 9.4
3/21 120.5 GKI 5.5
3/22 121.0 GKI 11.9 I felt like nibbling all day long! Pork roast and broccoli for dinner and low carb SF yogurt with 1 oz of cherries for dessert. I need to get a fast in but with DH not going to lunch with friend, it’s tough for me to fast.

3/21 209.6 Swam, ate a few pieces of chocolate, but overall ate pretty well. Worried about adult son (26) who has headaches & dizziness. MRI suggests either a mass effect in his brain or scattered neurological abnormalities, that don't explain his symptoms, says the ER neurologist. Follow up with neurologist this Thursday, and then a cardiologist. Mystery to be unraveled. At least our choices to lose weight are in our control. I'm keeping my son in my prayers this day, as I choose to eat healthily, moderately & to try to organize my tax prep.
3/22 210.4 I'm still astounded at what eating food with a higher salt content have on our weight. I ate out with a friend yesterday, and realize that our food, while delicious, had lots of salt & likely sugar.
3/23 208.8 Post healthy eating day-I like these numbers better than my chocolate or out to eat days. A bit worried about taxes-the friend who promised to help me is on radio silence. That means I'll have to buckle down today & try to make progress by myself - not my strength, but can do it.

Goals: HIT.MY.STEP.GOAL!!! 10,000/day; <100 carbs/day; Pelo ride 2-3x/week; end the round lower than what I started it at.
3/18- 183.4 I was up earlier than usual, so that’s likely the reason for the uptick. I’m not worried about it at all. 72 net carbs, step goal hit, and Pelo ride done.
3/19-183.4 I’m okay with this. This week has been rough, as my youngest kid has the flu, DH has bronchitis, and I’m not feeling great myself. Still, I’m sticking to my plan! 67 net carbs and step goal hit.
3/20- 182.4 46 net carbs and step goal hit. Still recovering from this flu business, so it’s been a weekend of not doing much at all.
3/21-182.2 Pretty darn happy with my progress lately, despite not feeling well! We have a trip to Disney planned for the last week of April and now I’m really excited to see where I’ll be till then. 48 net carbs and step goal hit. Ready to rock this week!
3/22- 182.0 Another small loss, but still a loss! 59 net carbs and step goal hit. I’m getting close to feeling 100% better, just a little congestion left. Thank goodness!
3/23- 182.6 I’m guessing the uptick is from the Pelo ride last night. It’s been four days in between my last ride and last night’s ride, thanks to aforementioned sickness. 86 net carbs, steps hit, and Pelo ride done. Keep on trucking!9 -

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Round 181 ( my 113th for me). Thanks @QuiltingJaine.
Need to knuckle down now and make each round count, DS's wedding is later this spring & I want to feel happy with myself on the day. Aim this round to be lower than the start, but a pound would be nice, concentrate on good food choices & think before I put anything in my mouth!! Also eat only half daily exercise calories back.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.SW: 138.8

3/22 138.4 – 11.41 miles walked, good choices, less than 10% exercise calories eaten.
3/23 137.6 – 8.36 miles walked, most of exercise calories eaten back due to lunch out with DS (3), main course very healthy, salad, egg, ham and small portion of new potatoes, but followed by small piece of homemade lemon drizzle cake mmm mmm mmm !! Today we meet up with our family to celebrate oldest DGS 4th birthday, the last 2 he "celebrated" in Covid lockdown, so it will be super to get together; meeting at a waterpark, all the little ones are excited (& some of the older ones!!) .
3/24 138.6 - 6 miles walked, a brilliant day yesterday, I thoroughly recommend Splash Landings at Alton Towers, we all felt like we were on holiday! DGC really enjoyed themselves as did us grown -ups!! I was a kid again!! Good food choices!! Just 136 calories over.

Recent High Weight: 163 lbs. (Sept. 21)
SW round 181: 158.1
GW round 181: < 158.1
I gained 0.2 in round 181. I'd like to get that down this round.
3.18 158.1 Was hungry and ate a lot yesterday; didn't finish logging my calories. Didn't get in my steps either. But I'm off for a short jog this morning.
3.19 158.1 Ate at a restaurant last night, but I think I ate OK. Today, I ate a lot of bread and didn't get in my steps. Not logging. . . .
3.20 158.1 Went for a 3 mile jog in the morning. Ate mindfully but didn't log.
3.21 157.4 Encouraged to see a drop this morning! I hope it' real. Will endeavor to log today and get in my steps.
3.22 158.1 Went for a 2.5 mile jog along the oceanside. Logged all my food and ate within points.
3.23 158.1 Did not get in significant exercise; it was rainy today. Logged food -- until dinner. Ate a lot of hubby's yummy chickpea and spinach pasta for dinner.
3.24 157.6 Surprised to see a drop. It might not be real. Mouth was dry last night - I need to drink more water. Another rainy day.

Day/Weight/Comment
3/18 - 145.5 - I had two Dr. appointments yesterday, so my husband and I ate lunch out in between. Then we celebrated some good biopsy reports for my husband along with St. Patrick's Day with some drinks. My weight might go up some more tomorrow, but that is OK. We enjoyed ourselves yesterday.
3/19 - 144.5 - I'm a little surprised. The scale may have been off this morning but I was in a hurry to get to work and didn't mess around with it. My work lunch will be catered today, so I will make good choices and hope the weight stays for tomorrow.
3/20 - 146
3/21 - 147 - St. Patrick's Day and the weekend caught up with me. I need to stay on track this week.

3/24 - 151.0 - Crazy swings in weight. Hit minimum goal (75oz) but not quite primary goal (90oz). Progress, though! Leftover tacos for lunch yesterday. Dinner was a thrown together air fried chicken thighs with green beans. FamHub's birthday and he asked to go out to the bar/grill (with outdoor area for kids to play) for dinner so I told the boys to go (BF fought back about me not having a good dinner while he's out enjoying himself but I won since it was birthday boy's request and he had thawed the thighs already). The air fryer BF got me for Christmas sure came in handy for that. Luckily I also had enough leftover taco meat and a couple tortillas to have tacos again for lunch at work. Even have enough thighs for tonight's dinner already thawed out so one less thing for BF to worry about haha! I win. Plus it's decently healthy. Interview tomorrow along with weekly grocery shopping. Not sure what else going on this weekend (since today is my Friday)

3/21 - Not near enough water yesterday and I ended up waking up a few times last night to chug water so I'm not sure how accurate this weigh in is. This weekend was busy. Friday I spent running errands and trying to spend time with the kids. Saturday I had to drive them back to meet their mom in Oklahoma which took the entire day for that round trip. Now back to commuting. I do have an interview on Friday, though! Not going to get hopes up too much, but it's a start!
3/22 - BigBro totaled my Toyota yesterday. He's okay. Sore, has a concussion. BF may take him to hospital today if it's still bad enough. Stress is through the roof and I've debated calling in sick so I can sleep. At this point, I might as well be sick because I feel so awful.
3/23 - I have no idea what's going on. I barely ate yesterday and I threw up a couple times because of a stomach bug going around and yet my weight is up? I stepped on scale twice and it read the same. I am dehydrated but didn't think it'd be so much so that I'd gain without really eating anything. Feel better today. Just had to go grab food from our little shopette because I was nauseous this morning and didn't think to bring breakfast in case. My body is really rebelling against me lately. Goal today: get enough water!!!! I'm a tad behind but not enough I can't catch up.

I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

I didn’t check in yesterday. Almost skipped it today. I am in the throws of a very bad cold that has moved into my eyes. Gross. Dr. thinks it is a bacterial infection, so I am on an antibiotic. Sleep has been terrible.
Have not lost my appetite, Ha!
Enjoying March Madness. A couple of my favorite teams got through round one. Iowa State and Illinois.

The blip up is because we went out to dinner last night unexpectedly and I indulged in truffles fries and a prosciutto, fig jam, and mozzarella pizza. So hello sodium and calories. It was all totally worth it though. I finished the pizza for breakfast this morning and now feel uncomfortably full. Ugh. It was my own decision so I’ll own it. I’ll definitely be eating lighter for the rest of the day and probably have a salad for lunch and something light for dinner.
3/18 122.8 Legs are sore from my new strength routine this week. Went to the gym this morning to do strength and intervals. I was able to go up in my Romanian deadlift and my reverse lunges this morning, so that was a good feeling and my forearms are slowly getting stronger. Tonight we’ll be getting Thai takeout for my sister in law’s birthday, so I’m sure I’ll have a sodium induced blip up tomorrow and the next few days. We had corned beef and cabbage last night for St. Patrick’s day and it was so good. I measured everything out and was able to stay within my calorie goals yesterday.
3/19 did not post
3/20 123.2 pre workout 121.9 post work out. It’s been a salty weekend, so hopefully that works it way out in a day or two. Did 45 minutes on the elliptical this morning and sat in the sauna for a bit afterwards too.
3/21 122.4 Food was better yesterday and I already have my day planned out for today and it’s looking good. Hoping to see a new low this round. I’m also planning to stick closer to my macros this week and see how that goes. I did my strength routine this morning and it felt great, my hip was even happy with me after my running intervals. I also managed to bump up a bit in weight in almost each exercise. I’m up to 35# dumbbells for my bench press and love feeling so strong afterwards. So, that’s always nice! I’m planning to check my body composition again tomorrow morning with their fancy scale thing at the gym, so I’ll be sharing those numbers tomorrow. Have a good Monday everyone!
3/22 121.4 Did a 5 mile run on the treadmill this morning. I can’t wait for it to be light out again in the mornings, so I don’t always have to treadmill run. I was running in the dark outside earlier this year/late last year but I wasn’t the biggest fan because of the safety factors involved with it. I used the InBody scale at my gym today and learned that I’ve gone from 27.2% percent body fat in January to now 25.3%. So, I was super excited to see those numbers! It just shows that as I slowly lose this weight I’m gaining muscle mass at the same time. So while it’s slower, my strength training and patience is paying off.
Breakfast was good this morning and super filling (oat bran mixed with homemade apple sauce, cinnamon, cashews, and some vanilla protein shake), lunch will be a salad and dinner is still to be determined.
3/23 120.6 Was super happy to see this number this morning 😊. I did my strength workout this morning along with 8 1 minute fast running intervals and 90 seconds of slower running in between. I ended up being forced to go up in weight by 5lbs for my reverse lunges because the dumbbells I wanted were missing resulting in me using 35# dumbbells instead of 30s. I was able to complete all the sets and my forearm strength was pretty darn good throughout it. So, lots of wins this morning. I was also able to go up in weight with my Romanian deadlifts by 20lbs total. Then, I finished it up with some nice stretching because I had a few extra minutes than normal. This program is starting to get exciting for me by seeing all these strength gains. Food was healthy yesterday, but I had the hungry horrors and went over my allotted calories for the day but still think I maintained a very minor deficit. Happy Wednesday!
I haven’t had a chance to read through most of the posts but plan to catch up soon. Hoping things are going well or getting better for people!

3/18- 190 (-1.4) I’m not sure I can trust this, but I’m thrilled!! Down 74.1 pounds since May. Almost at 75!! I’m swimming today. Thirty pounds to go to hit my goal weight and then I’ll figure out if that’s a good place for me.
3/19- 190 (-1.4) It was good to get in the pool yesterday. I have dinner tonight with a friend I haven’t seen for a very long time, so I’ll have that as my indulgence meal this week, so I’ll be bumping up tomorrow. I can’t believe I’m almost in the 180’s. This week, perhaps?
3/20- 191.4 (0) Enjoyed spending time with my friend yesterday. The bump is expected and I’m looking forward to a new low later this week. It’s spring here in Colorado and I’ll soon be back hiking with my sister once the snow melts. I can’t wait.
3/21- 191.4 (0) A quiet day today just doing art business related work. These are the days where it’s a little tough for me to stay on track. So I’ll do my best to stay focused and to drink all my water.
3/22- 190.6 (-.8) On my way back down. I swam my hour in the pool today, so hoping for a new low tomorrow.
3/23- 190 (-1.4) My scale fluctuated this morning and finally settled back on 190, which is still good. But I did see 189 for a millisecond.
3/24- 189.0 (-2.4) There it is. Officially 75.1 pounds down. I have less than 30 to go. My BMI has gone from 42 down to 30.5. Only .6 to go to get to the overweight category. I’ve been logging into MFP for 295 days in a row and started in this group on July 11th, 2021. Talk about being surrounded by like minded and inspiring people. Another busy day today with no organized exercise. Swimming tomorrow.

The “boys”, AKA the cats, Harry and Han Solo, are going to get tracked once per round as well. Maybe this way I will not keep losing my data for them
SW: 138.2
Cats: Harry 10 lb 14 oz (down 1.5 oz - bad) Han Solo 11lb 10.5 oz (down .5 oz – good)
3/18 – 138.2 Good day.
3/19 – 137.4 Those quick weight loss kicking in. Tracked another day fully, though choices we not perfect. I adjusted my day as it went on. Worked out acceptably. I did not let a couple bad choices cause more bad choices. Yesterday, walked 7 miles at 7 am.
3/20 – 136.4 More of the quick loss. Fun to see, but I know they are not fat pounds. But hopefully, just that sensation will help with motivation and keeping my focus that I am struggling so much with. Yesterday, walked 6.5 miles at 7 am.
3/21 – 136.2 Yesterday, I did not walk, but went kayaking through the mangroves with my husband. Was quite the adventure, but glad we did it. Apple watch claims that I burned a ton of calories, though I personally think that it was an over estimation. Consequently, I purposely did not aim to use all those “activity” calories. Eating is much improved and trying to maintain that focus until it starts becoming more natural again. BP check: 108/70 10:20 AM
3/22 – 135.6 I did a walk, but only 3.25 miles because I neglected to feed the cats before leaving the house and needed to get back to them. I did throw in 15 minutes of spin later on to try and compensate a little. I am also trying to get myself back using that machine from time to time like last year. The good news is that my husband is starting to use the spin bike as a helpful tool for him. Yay! So much better when a purchase supports more than one person in a home (he does use the elliptical and rower when we are home) Food went well enough. Got a little scattered. Started planned out, but then life happens, but I readjusted and those extra 15 minutes of spin earlier in the day kept me under my calorie goal. Scale liked me this morning. Oh, and yesterday I adjusted Harry and Hans weights in my notes above because the initial notes were carry overs as I forgot to check them in properly at the beginning of the round. BP check: 94/67 10:21 AM (did twice, thought was error); 100/67 4 PM
3/23 – 135.4 Walked 6.7 miles yesterday. When I return up north in May, I will have to figure out how what exercise fits with my day and obligations up there. Key is to remember the “all or nothing” approach eventually leads to failure for me, as the “nothing” phase eventually happens when I hit a life stumbling block. I have to figure out how to best take care of me at any given point in time. BP check: 101/67 6:30 AM Note: I have been meaning to periodically check my BP since I had a high number at my physical in January.
3/24 – 134.8 Same 6.7 mile walk. Went out to eat again, but planned ahead and pre-tracked my food. Had a delicious but smart appetizer and then a second delicious but smart appetizer as my entrée. Had part of a cocktail (I am a lightweight as a drinker), and a cappuccino for dessert. I need to remember that this is a enjoyable way to dine. BP: 95/65 right after today’s shorter walk & while typing 8:45 am

I have not gotten all of my seedlings transplanted; I have been doing a lot of hand watering and need to keep on the seedlings.6 -

Day/Weight/Comment
03/17 …..199.8….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
03/18 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 198.2) TMI was helpful. Yesterday was not the best of days with left over Chinese and other things I could have done without. I did have more steps overall for the day.
03/19 …..xxxxx ….. Trend weight xxxxx) Up about 4 hours earlier than usual this morning and was guzzling coffee before I realized I forgot to weigh. A broken routine this morning in every way. It’s going to be a rough day with very little sleep.
03/20 …..198.4 ….. (Trend weight 198.4) Relieved.
03/21 …..198.0 ….. (Trend weight 198.3) My trend weight went down a touch and for that I am very happy. Up early posting this morning and then I will be doing a travel day which is much further than usual. I am picking up something from facebook marketplace which is between 3 and 4 hours away (each way). Taking my handyman and there will be lunch or dinner out mid-state. Lots of sitting today so I don’t expect it will be that great tomorrow on the scale, but I will just keep working on it.
03/22 .….. 199.8 ….. (Trend weight 198.4) Golden Corral during travel. I’ll aim for a slim day today.
03/23 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 198.5) One pound down today which is probably excess water from the travel/restaurant weight. I did okay yesterday diet-wise. I made some good choices but there is still lots of room for improvement.
03/24 …..198.8 ….. (Trend weight 198.6) No change today. Diet was okay until the snacking. Snacks lower in calorie but too many. However, I made an actual effort to get in my 10,000 steps and I am proud of the progress there. Getting in movement and exercise has been almost impossible and had definitely made my efforts more difficult. Gotta eat so gotta burn calories every day!

Feel like I'm due for a good loss, so shooting for 1.5 pounds this round. Plus, 181 pounds in Round 181 was too good to pass up! Off to a great start! Just hope it stays down.
03/19: 181.4 lbs (-0.4)
Bit of a surprise. Went out for dinner and drinks last night. Didn't go crazy, but the tortilla chips and guac they got for the table were too tempting! And even shared some Gelato. One meal won't kill me.

Maybe that's the Gelato? Dunno. It's OK though.
03/21: 179.8 lbs (-2.2)
Well, did not expect that! The scale flipped back and forth between 180 and 179.8 for a few seconds before it finally settled. That 7 feels weird. I can't believe I'm here.
03/22: 180.4 lbs (+0.6)
I'm sore from ST yesterday and my tongue and lips feel puffy, so think it's water retention. Gonna drink lots of water today.

Body is teasing me again! Just a few ounces to get below 180. Oh well, it's something! 😄 Still well over my goal for this round so might not be a bad idea to slow down a bit.

Day/Weight/Comment
3/18: 137.3 - Had my shingles shot the day before, but managed to get my workout and walk in despite feeling achy. Very high-end of calories eating, but still within target.
3/19: 137.6 - As I get closer to my goal weight, I have been eating closer to the top end of my calories. I’ll try not going all the way to the top to see if it will finally get me over the line. I have to say that I am enjoying the extra calories though.
3/20: 136.7 - Ate a little bit under calories - not intentionally - but was satiated and full. Normal exercise and sleep. I’ve now lost 35 pounds since when I started back with MFP on Sep 7, 2022 and have 1.7 pounds left to hit goal weight. About a third of my move calories yesterday came from trying on pants in my closet. End up donating a whole bunch, but don’t yet have the confidence to donate ALL my pants that are too big. One big win is that I fit into a pair of jeans that my daughter left behind in her room, and she’s never been above a size 6 in her entire life.
3/21: 136.9 - Good workouts yesterday along with good eating. I cooked up a couple of dishes over the weekend that should last a couple of days. It makes it easier to calorie count when I can just click on a couple of the “recent foods” boxes to log meals.
3/22: 136.9 - Ate to the very tippy top of my range. Normal workouts and sleep.
3/23: 137.3 - Normal workouts and normal eating and sleep.

Date/W/Steps/Mins**
3/18 ~ 193.8 -16,000 and 113. SO is away for the week so these 10 days should go well with exercise better eating and meal planning. I've added my step goals. I am not physically ready to hit that but my brain is telling me its soon. Maybe after another 10 lbs.
3/19 ~ 193.1 - 18,200 and 127. It’s a slow start to the day. It’s the only sunny day this week and I don’t know how to spend it, but it will include coffee and a walk. Hope you all have sunny days today. ☀️
3/20 ~ 192 - 37,000 and 274. Big walk and a long hot bath after. Probably a dehydrated weight this morning. Probably be a low key day today.
3/21 ~ 192.2 - 19,000 and 92. Spent the day shopping and a small walk. SO is headed back home early so will see how the meals go. Super excited that Spring is here although rain is in the forecast for days!!
3/22 ~ 192.5 - 10,600 and 62. Was tired yesterday and forgot my chicken and salad dressing in my lunch. I can do dry salad but I added lots of kale to this one, kale really needs dressing!! Found a protein bar in my desk so I did have calories. SO made it home and too was very tired from his long drive. Ok Tuesday... I got this!! Have a wonderful day all.
3/23 ~ 192.2 - 16,700 and 108 mins. Walked home from work. Still a little tired but it may be this drizzly weather. Still have kale in my salad but remembered my dressing!! Happy Hump Day!!
3/24 ~ 192.3 - 14,400 and 99 mins. Sushi for dinner chose well sashimi a salad and a couple pieces of salmon nigiri. BUT SO wanted to go out for dinner it was a little early so he suggested a small walk. The weather had just cleared and it was a great evening. Also my reading goal is a work in progress, I am enjoying a relaxing tea in the evening just need to pick up that book.

Hi, I’m Kathy.
57, F, 5’8”
7th round! Rebooting my lifestyle after several false starts. I need accountability to make sure it gets done.
Return to MFP SW (Dec 2021): 267
HSW: 267
RSW: 245.4
UGW for now: 195, then reevaluate
Goal for this round: less than I started with
2022 goals: move more (okay, move some), eat mindfully
Day/Weight/Comment
3/18 245.4 And a new low to start the round! I hope this is a good sign for the next 10 days. Heading into a busy weekend so I’ll be mindful. Have a good weekend, y’all!
3/19 DNW
3/20 246.2
3/21 247.4 Lots of eating out with friends and family this weekend (today’s our 30th anniversary) so this jump is not unexpected despite making generally good choices. Hitting the water hard and being especially mindful of sodium intake for the next couple of days should help.
3/22 245.8 Coming back down. Great workout last night – knee strengthening and cardio. The Pollening has begun here, so outdoor activities will be curtailed for the next few weeks until that calms down. Meals are planned and logged and my water cup is full next to me!
3/23 245.6 Still headed the right direction. Actually back in the office today so I brought all my food with me. Meals are all logged.
3/24 245.4 Back to where I started the round. Now time to drop for a couple of days. Lots of stress at work for the next few days but I will do my very best to handle it in a healthy way. And if I don't, I'll pick myself up and keep going.

Happy Friday! I’m off for a walk with the pup before the rain rolls in. Enjoy your day, all!
3/19 - 179.8
Cold and rainy today, so I’m planning a nice cozy indoor Saturday. Enjoy yours!

🌷🌷Happy Spring! 🌷🌷 It’s bright and sunny here and warming up. Perfect day to take Rory for a walk & then play 🎾, then do a bit of pruning. Not quite warm enough yet for real garden cleanup (don’t want to kill the baby insects in the leaf litter), but I can start a few things, including planning some new front yard landscaping. Cheers me right up. Enjoy your day!

My “different soup every Sunday” project continues…yesterday I made vegetable beef. I rarely eat beef, but had a hankering for a nice chunky veggie beef, and it was delish. Hitting my calorie goal the past few days, too—even on the weekend. Yay!
3/22 - 179.2
Just back from 2.5 hours of doggy classes. We’re both ready for a nap!
3/23 - 180.4
Snack attach, lots of salt. Fed up—literally—with myself.
3/24 - 180.2
Good calories, bad sodium yesterday. All is well. 😁
