    @Maryirisfroehlich @Lislisa123 @annachangesagain @865jessica congrats on the losses!

    @Katmary71 Are you okay?

    @tammymccrady6278 Woo hoo! Congrats on making it to 185!

    @TeresaW2024 It is better, thanks! Oh gosh, that weather sounds miserable. You would love Little Italy! It was so fun. I'm glad you pushed the UC doctor to give the antibiotics. Poor Joe. He's been through so much! Have you heard when you can get Maggie's surgery yet? Curry chicken salad...I just found a recipe for curry chicken salad. I also found a recipe for dill pickle chicken salad, I bet you'd like it: you make a basic chicken salad using mayo, Greek yogurt, Dijon, and some spices and you add diced dill pickles, fresh dill, and a bit of the pickle brine. I don't usually like chicken salad but I think I would love both chicken salads!

    Hi all. I didn't track yesterday and almost just left it as that but I thought to myself, "you need to go back and track or you can't complain if you gain weight" so I went back and tracked. We went to a Mexican restaurant last night, I had 1/2 an order of shrimp fajitas and a melon margarita. It was good but put me way over for the day. Today, we are celebrating my husband's birthday (again! The older you get, the more celebrating you do lol). We are going to my BIL's apartment and having food and drinks.

    Hi everyone,

    I was almost done with an update and "bam" lost it all just like that. So, this one is going to be short and sweet. The cleaning and fixing things are almost done. Tomorrow, I'm going to start putting things in it. Between hubby and I we have done a lot of amazon shopping getting things to finish fixing broken things and things to make our own. Yesterday, I started getting back on track, so yesterday and today I have done very well. My only exercising has been cleaning and I haven't been tracking it, so I guess it doesn't count on here, That's ok, I know I did it.

    Anyway, I'm tired and really ready to do some reading, I think. Y'all have a great evening 🙂

    @txcritter69 I was thinking of a sweet potato too but wasn't sure it would count! I'ms o glad your face is starting to recover, that sounds awful.

    @trooworld Thanks! Clinic closed yesterday. That's an awesome list of restaurants how fun! Sounds like you made good choices for a Mexican restaurant too.

    @tammymccrady6278 Woohoo congratulations! Great plan write everything down, you got this!

    @TeresaW2024 I'm sorry you had to go to Urgent Care with Joe but am glad it was caught early.

    Hi team! I went into work yesterday and my pain's been real bad (like how it was prior to my last fusion with feeling crushed which just started again then extreme pelvic nerve burning) so I went to buy a pain patch and when I went to subtract it from my account the Russian Healing blanket the owner had told me she wanted me to have was subtracted from my account but at the value of a brand new one so wanting me to “have this” cost me $730! I was in a lot of pain and shocked then mentioned it to one of the practitioners and she was appalled and angry and told me not to accept it. I told the owner's roommate and best friend I was leaving because I was angry about something and when I told her she was livid and has since been trying to help me. We're packing up all the owner's stuff while she's at home sleeping off a late night at the casino and she'd gotten the blanket on discount for $500 a few years before then charged me the brand new retail price. I returned the blanket and gave myself a refund and left and later sent a text letting her know her gift had been refunded to my account. She said she wasn't sure how she'd pay me with all my credit and I gave her some ideas then went in this morning and bought a lot of supplements though some were expired but I wanted to get something to help me heal and recover from my flare. I feel that way about the blanket where I wouldn't have minded having it but not like that. Her roommate got me a machine I wanted but I still have about $600 so we'll see what happens. She basically gambled all the practitioner's money and lied and said she paid rent when she didn't and they didn't get their money from their clients they should have so it was real tense. Really sad and messed up situation. I should be feeling better by now, if I don't start improving I'll have to see my surgeon to see if the hardware shifted or a level is compressed in my spine but not sure how micro current would've done that. Have a great Sunday team.

    @trooworld Maggie goes for her consultation at the surgery center on Tuesday. I’m praying they can take her as soon as possible. Poor thing is clearly miserable. I actually don’t care for dill pickles, but I adore bread & butter pickles. Go figure! :D Yum on a melon margarita! I love that graphic and think it’s so important for us to grasp that showing up isn’t doing 100% all the time. :)

    @Katmary71 I am so very sorry that you are in so much pain! That is awful about the owner and the blanket. How much longer will you be dealing with that clinic before it shuts down completely? What will you do afterward? I’ll be praying for you! <3


    Good morning! My great nephew, Jaxon, came to spend the night last night, and my mom decided to buy us all pizza, so my healthy dinner plan went out the window. I had better buckle down over the next two days, or the scale won’t be nice on Tuesday. I will do a rebounder workout this morning before church since I plan to take tomorrow off. You all have a great day! :)

    To go along with Trooworld's graphic, I saw this graphic yesterday.

    "You are the greatest project you'll ever work on. Restart. Reset. Refocus. As many times as you need. Just don't give up!"

    @DrewsAnna Cleaning is good exercise. That's good you got things fixed.

    @Katmary71 I'm sorry you lost that resource. Wow, that would make me so mad (the blanket thing). That's terrible that the owner took the practice down in flames because she was gambling. Sounds like she has a real problem. I hope you can get some help.

    @19shmoo69 Great loss, congrats!

    @TeresaW2024 That will be good she can go for the consultation on Tuesday, I hope they can get the surgery scheduled soon. Ah, I LOVE dill pickles, so it's right up my alley! :D I am the opposite of you: I hate bread & butter pickles lol. Yes, I really loved that graphic, too! That was nice of your mom but I know you probably felt conflicted about eating it. I love that quote, thanks for sharing it!

    Hi all. I had a nice time yesterday. We ran around a lot. It was hot (well, hot for here: about 88F). It's 78F inside right now at 6 am, so I can imagine it will get hot today.

    Hello everyone!

    I was on vacation last week and am just getting home. I am so sorry I didn't weigh in Thursday. I will weigh in Thursday. We went to Charlotte, North Carolina and had a ball. The suite was super nice, the city was nice, and the food was excellent. I know I overdid it but I sure did enjoy it!

    Time to get back to real life and get these extra pounds off again. Let's go get it! B)

    Ok it’s slow but it’s the right direction. Even this pace will make a big difference in a year :)

    One more week of school. It’s been insane. I did have a fantastic day Friday - I played in the staff-student baseball game and I did great. I got an excellent hit and ran in a not-embarrassing way. Although my ankles and thighs are wondering what I did that for lol.
    I also hosted an amazing staff show “the masked teacher” which was super well-received and so much fun! I’ll try to share a photo. I’m the orange t-Rex :)z6rt7v3gotqd.jpeg

    I am not going to complain about this. I have had a pretty rough week I have peeled one layer of skin from my face not sure how many more there will be. I am still really puffy too.
    I will be spending most of today with Diesel as he will be leaving in the morning for 3 wks. I just pray this helps him and that it does not backfire and end up hurting him.
    During the time he is gone I will be working on decluttering more stuff around the house. I have to get a create and figure out where to put it.
    I did get my furniture Friday and am very pleased with it. My back no longer hurts.x7qaksdx7ugx.jpg

    @Katmary71 I am so sorry you are in so much pain and not able to find relief. I will be praying that everything works out for you.
    @TeresaW2024 I hope everything goes well for Maggie on Tuesday.

    Sorry this is short but I am going to love on my pup.

    @rjv230 You're currently on the list to be dropped, I added your weight for this week and will let the spreadsheet owner know to keep you and move you back to main team (if someone doesn't weigh in for two weeks they're dropped but you're good weighing in today). Your weigh-in day is Sundays so on Sunday just do a post with your weigh-in day and current weight and I'll log it from there, some post their last weigh-in but that's up to you. Thanks!

    I did get to 161.8 a few days ago but had a bad binge since. Working on getting on my feet again. At least i binged on protein filled food but it wasnt a good choice. Hoping I will get to be in 161 range again by next week.

    Congrats to @megnolia82 for achieving first place in individual lbs lost! And kudos to @AustinRuadhain and @TeresaW2024 for also getting on the leaderboard!

    @askewcr I'm glad you had a good vacation.

    @megnolia82 Congrats on the loss! Way to go with the hit. That looks like a lot of fun.

    @txcritter69 Oh my gosh, ouch! I love your new furniture, it looks really comfy. I hope all goes well with dear Diesel. Yay for your back not hurting anymore!

    Hi all. It was so stinking hot here yesterday (relatively speaking). It got up to the 90s. I don't tolerate heat really well, so I was miserable lol. We went for a walk in our favorite neighborhood. I felt like I would pass out. Came home and sat on the porch for a bit. It was too hot to cook a real meal so we made frozen chicken fried rice and potstickers from Sam's Club. We haven't ordered delivery food for a very long time, at least 3 months, so that's good. Have a good day!

    @DrewsAnna Oh no sorry to hear you lost the update, that used to happen to me all the time. Great job getting back on track, all that cleaning is being counted by your body! What are you reading?

    @TeresaW2024 Thank you. Clinic is shut down and moved out of now so I don't have to ever talk to any of them again if I don't want to. I'm not sure what I'm doing next, I was working with one practitioner and was going to continue working with her for free treatment but when I was texting her how I was doing she said if I wanted to talk to give her a call and I realized she's covering her butt in case of a lawsuit which I wasn't even thinking (written word is evidence). If I'm still like this tomorrow I'm going to have x-rays done to see if something visible is wrong but am hoping it's just bad inflammation. She had wanted me to go with her to the Spa she's going to work out of but now I'm not sure. The owner's roommate wants to help me for free so I may try that treatment but I'm a little weary of ever seeing the owner again. I'd stay friends with her. I hope it was good pizza at least, sounds yummy! I have issues with my dad where he gets me food against how I want to eat and I feel guilty if I don't eat it. It's awkward and frustrating.

    @micaroo4 Thank you!

    @trooworld Thank you as soon as I get upset my body gets worse, I'm hoping now that everything is mostly over and I have time to rest I'll bounce back. I remember the one time I had bread and butter pickles I thought they tasted weird, I can't remember if I like them or not now but I LOVE dill pickles. This heat wave stinks we're 102 today, San Diego gets pretty humid so I can't imagine. There was a heat wave when my brother graduated from San Diego State and I'd straight-ironed my hair and by the end of the ceremony my hair gained 3xs the volume in frizz, the graduation photos are embarrassing. My parents weighed more then and brother had a beer gut so all four of us hate those photos.

    @askewcr Glad to see you I was worried about you! Sounds like a wonderful trip!

    @megnolia82 You're doing awesome! How funny the masked teacher must've been too fun for everyone. LOL love your costume!

    @Cornanda Thank you, been a weird experience.

    @txcritter69 I feel so bad for you, your face must be hurting so much. Enjoy your time with Diesel I know you'll really miss him. I love your furniture I want to come read there! Thank you.

    @megnolia82 @AustinRuadhain @TeresaW2024 Congratulations top losers!

    Wow team green looks good on you you're all rockin it!

    Hi friends! Taking it easy doing some herb drying and resting today. Still pretty flared up. Shoot forgot to post this, I'll do so now.
