Good Afternoon,
Back is a little on the stiffer side today as yesterday was a successful day with getting all the christmas stuff packed up, put in the attic, more cleaning, organizing of the rec/storage room and taking some of the stuff I decluttered to the drop box of Arms of Hope. I am still moving slow but today I got mulching around the tree and rose bush that was planted back in the late spring. Now we pray they survive winter. 😂 We are expecting freezing🌡 to move in tonight. Hubby is going to bring up some firewood to the house, we don't get to use the fireplace too often, going to take advantage of the situation.
We are also going over to a friends house for a BBQ so making some german potato salad to take along. I hope this does not affect my WI too much.

It was not a good food week. But good gym week. Week restarts tomorrow!3

@Cornanda Thank you! Thinking protein and produce is real helpful at not feeling overwhelmed, I need to get back to that thanks for the reminder.
@trooworld Haha so our luck is just starting a bit later this January right? I tend to think of being back on track after the holidays as starting on the 2nd since we usually have that dinner. I will eventually figure out how to stay on track with going out I hope. That's frustrating having to wait on antibiotics, fingers crossed the Claritin and nasal spray help.
@865jessica Sounds like a good plan we'll look forward to more check-ins!
@txcritter69 Wow I'm tired just reading all you've been up to, great job on cleaning and decluttering! I hope the tree and rosebush make it through winter too. Enjoy the BBQ tonight, that sounds fun.
@gemwolf110 Way to go on the good gym week!
Hi team! I've mostly been cleaning today but took a break for my PT exercises and some cardio and weight lifting. It's currently pouring outside but I caught a break and ran out to check on the garden, almost time to harvest my first head of cauliflower. I made Skinnytaste's Giant Parmesan Turkey Meatball for dinner, it's been awhile since I last did and I love that one. I threw away my 10 things and caught up on a few days I didn't have time to do it. I know @txcritter69 is doing awesome on cleaning and decluttering, anyone else still at it? Have a great Sunday friends!0 -

Good Morning everybody. This morning marks day three of shoulder/neck pain on my left side. I've tried my PT stretches and exercises. I'm getting tired of this pain. I can get it to go away but it comes back. I plan on getting an appointment with primary doctor this week.
Breakfast- Coffee with protein shake
Good start to my day and has been a reliable go to for months now.1 -
@gemwolf110 New week new you! Good job having a good gym week.
@Katmary71 A giant meatball sounds tasty! I am still working on decluttering and have a couple of boxes that I need to take to Goodwill this week. I always purge after the holidays. Something about putting away all the Christmas stuff makes me want to throw everything away. 
@trooworld Glad you are feeling better and were able to be creative yesterday. That shadow box sounds wonderful and such a good memory for you to treasure. I’ve looked at getting a walking pad but I don’t have the space. I did get one of those stepper machines that I really like. Ugh garbage disposals are a pain. Mine was making a weird noise for a while and then one day when I running it a tiny piece of plastic came flying out and the problem was solved!
Good morning! I totally forgot to post yesterday even though it was a chill day for the most part. I attempted to do a cardio workout but my body was so tired from the week of weightlifting that I cut it short. Mostly I worked on a new puzzle and then wanted TV with hubby. We are on our last season of Suits. Soooo sad to see it go!
I’m trying not to feel frustrated with my scale not going down as fast as I want it to. I went off sugar and cut out snacking and still the scale keeps fluctuating. But I’m going to trust the process and just keep doing what I’m doing while continuing to dial in my nutrition and push those weights. Have a good day!

@TeresaW2024 - Hubs and I area also watching Suits! But I think we have 2 or 3 seasons left, so no spoilers! It's always hard to find new shows when you finish one. Or at least for me it is.2

I have to say you all are doing great at reporting your weigh-ins on time, thank you it makes it a lot easier on those who keep the spreadsheet going!
@trooworld Oh that's great the Claritin and Nasal spray helped! Funny I have to do my allergy routine (Claritin, Flonase, and a prescription eye drop) twice a day instead of once. I'm trying to get into an allergist to get shots instead. Oh the AC definitely could be stuffing you up! I'm having the dryness with the heater, always something right? I'm glad you found a recipe you liked, I think I try more of your recipes! Doing awesome with the craft area! Hm it needs a fun name like Chris's Craft Nook! What a cool first date, I'm sure your husband will be touched you made your first date's shadowbox, what fun memories. I'm glad to walking pad is replaced and ready to go!
@865jessica Is there something underlying with your neck and shoulder? I hope your PT stretches and exercises help and you're feeling better soon. Epsom salt baths help a lot for me but when it's the neck it's a little harder to soak it! Hopefully you'll hear back from your primary soon.
@TeresaW2024 Way to go on the purging! It just feels right clearing out the old at the start of the year right? I may have to check out Suits, my brother and SIL are watching it right now too. Yes stick with it, you're doing great and things will fall into place once your body adjusts.
Hi team! Doing an early morning check-in as I'll be at my parent's most the day, make it a good one and if you can do something to make your life a little easier this week either by meal prep or getting laundry done. I set my coffee pot the night before which is small but very appreciated. A friend wanted me to join this cute app so she'd get referral credit and I've been listing the things I need to do the next day on it before going to bed (my character has a nest to decorate and a wardrobe so it's fun to earn new things especially as I'm doing the free version). I've always liked checking things off a list. Speaking of staying on track I was listening to this Mel Robbins podcast at the greenhouse the other day on things to change in your mornings to stay on track and focused:

Trip to Virginia beach to get my dog surgery went well! Puppy is recovering at AMAZING speed! Oddly enough, even though I abandoned my diet for 4 days, I've lost weight. I am pausing tracking my steps for this week, because I have a welt from my Fitbit on both arms, making it unpleasant to wear.

Good Morning,
Congrats to everyone who lost weight this week. For those of us who didn't, today is the start of a new week.
@gemwolf110 I am with you on not having good food choice this past week. I have finally eaten all the junk that we bought on last week's grocery shopping,🫢this week I am going back to the delivery so there won't be any impulse buying.
@Cornanda I am still sore from the fall but doing better this morning. I like your idea of protein and produce. I am going to try this out this week and see how it goes.
It is getting harder to find a show to watch. We watched Young Sheldon(waiting for the next season). Because of it we are now watching The Big Bang Theory. We also just finished Madam Secretary, We are waiting for all our shows to air next season.
@TeresaW2024 We watched suit back when I was aired on TV. Great show, wish they didn't end it.
@Katmary71 I am glad your garden is going so well. I am done until next month. I am going to plant some cucumbers and tomatoes those were the only veggies I managed to keep alive last yr. I did get some green beans in early fall so maybe I will plant them indoors in summer and put them out after our heatwave. We will see, it will also depend on how much camping we do this yr. I would like to plan a little trip to a neighboring state.
@trooworld I hope you are doing better today, Colds are the worst thing to catch cause they hang around for so long. I have yet to begin going through my craft stuff and getting it organized. I am a little intimidated by having to go through it.
Last night's BBQ was great, I love hanging out with friends. Today is going to be a little more on the relaxing side of things. We are in our 3 days of winter. The high for today and tomorrow will be around 26 degrees with a chance of freezing rain. We prefer to just stay home cause these people can't drive in the rain.
I have been put off being serious about losing weight cause i feel so bad about losing 5 lbs only to gain it back. This is a new week and I know I need to commit myself to something that will help move me back into that direction. This week is going to be about controlling my snacking after dinner and watching my bad carb intake.
"Today" I Choose to be HAPPY!

Sigh. Rich has covid. He came home with "a cold", and since I'd had a cold earlier this week (tested negative on 2 tests 2 days apart) we thought it might be a cold. But to be safe, he did a test, and it's positive. He had covid last March, and it put him in hospital. He's phoned his doctor and left a message, but his doctor's office is notoriously bad about returning calls, and tomorrow is a holiday. He's wearing a mask, but I'm probably already plenty exposed.

I see I missed last week. I’ve been hit by Covid, but unlike last time I had it, it hasn't affected my appetite, unfortunately.

I forgot this morning, so it's clothed and post-dinner weight.
Went to my first adult swim class today, and really enjoyed being in the water. The pool was nice and warm, and there were only a few other people in the class. The instructor was really kind, and it was nice that the other people in the class were larger-bodied folks as well. Off tomorrow for MLK day, so I think I'm going to take the opportunity to go to the midday yoga class.2 -

@txcritter69 - I enjoy Young Sheldon and Big Bang. May have to check out Madam Secretary. We are also watching The Good Wife- it's well done.
@micaroo4 - fingers crossed that his Covid is much more mild this time. And that you don't get it.
@19shmoo69 - Holy Cardinals!
@badnoodle - your swim class sounds nice!
