    Lifting and the scale has begun its shenanigan's. It all good. My friend the tape measure has again saved the day with smaller measurements.

    Good evening all.
    Check in for 1/12:
    Steps - 12188
    Calories - 2625
    Exercise - pickleball for 3 hrs. Claimed 45 minutes since a lot of my games aren't very competitive.

    Congrats on moving up to the hard cast. How does your foot feel? Still lots of pain?

    Thanks Roger ... foot is still very tender and painful....it hasn't even been a month since my 2nd foot surgery (12/15.. not sure why he decided to put me in a hard cast...this has been a long and drawn out process which I hope to never revisit this ever again ...Thanks for asking :)

    I am working on cutting down my sugar/sweetener intake. I had gotten into the habit of drinking kool-ade with sweeteners at dinner and a couple times a day. I am now drinking milk or plain water again. One step at a time.

    @lindamtuck2018 I just read back a week and saw your question about rent. It varies from who owns the buildings. Private owners can raise it whenever they want. Government usually once a year.
    My rent just went up 150 a month.

    I am sure you heard me say this before but I wish I had taken measurements in the beginning. Congrats on the reduced measurements.

    I am sure you want this to be over already. At least your cast is a pretty colour. If you find something that works for batwing arms please let me know. Healing thoughts for you. ❤️‍🩹

    Nice loss! It is amazing what cutting one thing out of your diet can do. That is crazy about the rent increase. I was complaining about it going up $50.

    Not surprised by the gain. I usually have a gain when I have a cold. I tend to eat really weird. Now if it’s not going down next week I will have a conversation with myself. Staying away from the pool as I have a headache from the sinus pressure. I am aiming to do some mini walks.

    Happy FriYAY!

    We have 3 different sets of company and are eating out all week. I don't really feel like I'm overeating - I hope that doesn't mean I'm getting used to larger quantities!!! I think there is magic things in restaurant food that adds pounds.
