I need to experiment with things like this. I have tried feeding my husband vegetarian meals in the past and he wasn’t too happy. I think I will try again.Good evening everyone. I hope your 4th was safe and good.

It's been a bit of a rough week; I'm having foot problems and that's made it more difficult to get exercise. I may get a gym membership just so I can do some low/no impact exercise. Looking at that more seriously now that the holiday weekend is winding down.
Is swimming an option with your foot. It’s a great low impact exercise.motivatedmom13 wrote: »Weigh Day Monday

Exercise: walk to market and back
No exercise today. I am going for a pedicure this morning. I got somethings booked for the trip. This time next week we will be getting ready to go whale watching. My weight is up a few pounds from my last weigh in but I am still in onderland. I haven’t been watching my sodium and my appetite is returning. On Thursday we have to eat at the airport on our layover. From Friday to Monday we are going with different family members to restaurants. I hope I don’t do too much damage.
Have a great Tuesday!1 -

Maintenance but that is alright as I am doing some heavy lifting maybe some fat burning is going on.
1010 miles as of end of June.
Changing where I swim so it will be a month before I get back into the pool. But I am going to try figure skating this month. Got skates for Christmas. Need to break them in.2 -

Hi all! I am handing my captain duties over to Megan for the next few weeks. I am a little stressed getting ready to go and book our outings for the next week so she is taking over a day early. I will pop in and say hi if I get a chance while in Newfoundland. Work hard, lose weight and more importantly look at your NSV’s.5

@lindamtuck2018, i didnt feed chickpea bolognese to my husband, he definitely wouldn't be happy 😂, hes on his own diet atm of ham salad for every dinner and lunch so we're eating seperately. I dont think i could eat the same thing every meal, not sure how he does that1

My right big toe joint has swollen up and really painful, so not as many steps today (7,790) most of those done at work, wont be doing many more ive got my feet up now. The diet is going well, although have a massive craving for a battenburg cake and custard, not giving in though 😄1
