    @mkksemail i don’t blame you for being concerned! I hope you head back from the ENT very quickly and they can get that taken care of.

    @leonadixon I’m so sorry to hear about your mom, and for your recent loss of your father. I hope for some peace, health and the best possible care for your mom and your whole family.

    Hey Dar-ren ;) I enjoyed your intro post but it was a little triggering lol. Lifelong coffee addict here. Like a pot or two a day from 17-37. I gave myself an ulcer years ago and powered through. Then suddenly one day in May 2020 (I remember it well, as it was such a somber and momentous occasion) I made my pot like every morning. I took my first sip and became violently ill. Ever since that day I’ve tried countless times, and 🤮 every single time. It’s so cruel. Why? Why?

    So now I switched to tea, about 75 flavours, but I dream about coffee every single day.

    Anyway, there’s my not particularly interesting or amusing coffee story lol ;) I’m short, I’m jealous of you and your coffee enjoyment. :)

    Well the smoke has arrived here in Connecticut. This will be day two of inside walking (and no walk for Monty). Something about walking outside that makes the time go by so quickly. Made this yummy meal last night and had to share; added grilled chicken for protein and used pasta I had in the cupboard instead of the whole wheat.

    @mkksemail The July 4th challenge was posted in the last week of the May thread; page 21. Don't think it would be too late to make some kind of commitment. Good luck at the ENT, I would be concerned too.

    Hey Slimpossibles! Join me for a fun 4th of July challenge! Choose just one thing to work on until July 4th to make it a habit. Do the thing and report in as often as you'd like how you are doing!

    For my "thing", I am going to choose tracking just one meal a day.

    Good luck!

    @trooworld Congrats! Can you share a picture? Would love to see!

    @leonadixon So sorry to hear about your Mom. I understand fully; my sister (and best friend) was just diagnosed with ovarian cancer; such heart ache. You are definitely in my prayers. Cherish every minute.

    @megnolia82 I'm sorry about your ulcer. Have you tried teachino? That's prolly not spelled correctly. It's a tea like coffee flavored drink. My wife likes it.

    @ddainiak that's gif was funny. Thank you for that. My first thought was he's an amateur. Just drink out of the clear cup. Lol

    @trooworld I do drink a lil bit of coffee. I try not advertise it. How'd I do?

    @19shmoo69 I think you did just fine. :D On a more serious note, how is your wife doing? How are YOU doing?

    @tfelts147 Congrats on the loss!

    @askewcr That's a great NSV (non-scale victory). Congrats! Happy Friday!

    @Brigit02 Anxiety is awful, I also suffer from it. That's great that the scale went down. I hope your anxiety lets up soon.

    @Katmary71 Thank you! Well, the fair technically wasn't open yet lol, so we HAD to stop at the store! But even if I had the choice, I probably would have stopped at the store because I'm not all that enamored with fair food. Yeah if I don't eat salads for a while and then try to eat them, I have problems let's just say lol. I'm glad you had fun with your friends. Were you in pain? Was that why you couldn't sleep?

    @Cornanda Thank you for thinking of us and congrats on the scale going in the right direction.

    Speaking of the scale going in the right direction, it's not for me. :( I know where I went wrong this week because, thanks to the 4th of July challenge, I've tracked everything I have eaten. I'm very tired today and will try not to get into any trouble because I'm tired.

    4th of July challenge: tracked 100% of what I ate

    My phrase for the year: "Every choice is another chance to change my health for the better."

    I asked my wife for the spelling. It's teeccino. The actual coffee flavor is French roast.

    @trooworld Well you could’ve bought ice cream at the store as well, good decisions! I couldn’t sleep from pain and doing the “if I fall asleep now I’ll get three hours before my alarm goes off”. Glad to hear all your tracking is helping you see where the issue is, you got this! Hope you get some good sleep tonight.
    @mkksemail Doing great with the steps, you can hit 10.000 no problem!
    Hi gang! I don’t feel good and have the option to go to a classic rock concert in a park-like place but my friend just let me know the disabled parking is taken so I’m going to stay here, I’ve been worse than normal and have the farm and a doctor’s appointment to fill my medications tomorrow before 11 so I should just rest. I’d only get through it with a drink or two and have done good the last couple days staying under. My phone appointment and workout went fine then I went to the store. My friend was just getting in the shower to go shopping at 1:45 so I told her I wasn’t going, it was just to keep her company going to a few places and I wasn’t up for it at that point which is why I go early. Have a great Saturday team!
    - Back’s real tight so bending with knees has been hard but I’m doing it!
