@Kali225 Those kayaking photos look amazing.. thanks for sharing
Vegas is going well, last night was the Adele concert that I am here for to take my mom to. What an amazing performance. My mom's weight has impacted her life to the point that she is basically immobile now and this is the first trip we have taken in her new condition. Back in 2018 and 2019 we had trips to the Philippines and we did a cruise and since then things have deteriorated a lot. So, we are having fun, but there is some sadness there for me that I can't quite push away. Howeve, trying to focus on the positive, and having Brad and my brother here as support really helps. And I'm really glad I was able to help make my mom's desire to see Adele a reality.
Eating like I'm on vacation...
But... steps are great! Yay Strip walking.
My mom rented a scooter so she can actually get places with us so we've been able to maintain our physical activity on foot.6 -
I did an 8 mile charity walk this afternoon. My legs are like jelly - I'm definitely going to feel it in the morning!

Well done, jelly legs and all.

I arrived in Edmonton and meeting "my" Afghan family was as wonderful as I had imagined. They are so interesting and lovely, and the food was fabulous. They kept everything vegetarian for me, but there was a lot of it! I did not need more than that one meal today. Apparently tomorrow is a big Thanksgiving potluck at the property where my daughter lives - it'll be a blast, but I'll try to keep the eating under control for sure!6

I have not had the best week of eating and I am afraid to weigh in this week. My small gain after eating right all week went to my head and I thought, what's the point? I know, it could be water fluctuation, but my mind was not being rational. So here is to a perfect day today. I have pre-tracked and have a walk planned.5 -
That's the way to tell that head what's what! Enjoy your perfect daylauren_989 wrote: »I have not had the best week of eating and I am afraid to weigh in this week.

I changed my weigh-in day from Sunday to Saturday because I couldn't seem to get my stuff together to post on Sunday. *sigh* Here I am, another Saturday weigh-in on Sunday.
Work is going to slow down a bit. The heavy reset season is now over until February.
Having a whole entire farm on top of all of that, I am whipped - wiped out daily. When I go to bed, I crash.
It's getting cooler here, so it's time to winterize chicken coops, get bedding thicker for the goats and the emu, and re-sand the duck coop for water drainage. We have a big cat hut on our front porch for the feral cats. We will be setting up the heaters and getting new bedding in there. We got the dogs prepped yesterday. They have their own room on our patio. We got their heater going, closed the windows, removed their fans, and doubled up their beds. The dogs have their cots in the summer. In winter, we put a dog pillow on the cot and top the pillow with orthopedic beds to give our seniors some added comfort. That seems like a lot of work, but I enjoy spending time with the farm animals, so it's all a labor of love.4 -

hi team, happy Sunday. had another lovely paddle today, one of my longest sessions this season - out for more than 2.5 hours, but not all active. I brought snacks and my book and just floated on one of the lakes while I read for a while. It was so peaceful. Tomorrow will be much of the same. Wish I could do this awesome activity all year!
@IDebraK that does sound like a lot of work but it also conjures a lot of cozy images for those animals! I'm so excited for colder weather.
@ashleycarole86 I love Adele, I bet the show was amazing! sorry your trip is tinged with some sadness but hopefully your mom enjoys her time. keep those steps up!2 -

We had a busy week between kods activities, work, and helping ym Aunt get her house ready to sale. I ate a few too many carbs this weekend and no workouts. I will do better this week.4

@eggfreak Sylvia, My sympathy on the loss of your father, you have been such an amazing support for him. Thinking of you and proud you controlled that ice cream. Now time to take care of you.
Brad and Ashley hope you’re having a great time in Las Vegas.
Liselyn, enjoy your visit with your daughter. I love that you got to meet the family you helped.
Yinka, great job with your race.
Kali, your kayaking sounds so relaxing and fun.
@IDebraK What a lot of work! But what great care you take of your animals.
I am going to do the weekly 7 minute challenge. I will post daily what activity I do. I figure it’s just what I need. I need to start. I can do something for 7 minutes. I also go to my new doctor tomorrow. I made the appointment in July. I’m not looking forward to a drs scale (alwAys higher) We’ll see what she thinks of my health state.

I'm so sorry @jugar and team. We got back in town last Thursday and I totally got turned around on what day was what. I just realized I missed my Friday weigh-in. Please don't drop me from the group.
I know it's too late to submit a weight this week but I will be back on track next Friday.
Thank you2
