    @CamandJarvis what does DOMS mean? I can't find it on @quiltingjaine list.

    Sorry for the delayed response! DOMS = Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness.
    @quiltingjaine can we add this to our list? Please and thank you!

    @musicsax Glad to hear it doesn’t seem like more permanent damage. I agree with your “use it or lose it mentality”. In our workout group we say silly things like “motion is the lotion” for our joints and “wear out rather then rust out”. It helps that our group leader is a physical therapist licensed in sports massage.
    Balancing rest and use seems to help most injuries. Don’t forget the rest part!!!
    The only times she has ever told me to 100% rest and completely baby the muscle for a long time and then slowly work on was when I got a weird pull in my bicep @CamandJarvis I feel for your BF, the bicep tears very easy once it is compromised- there is no working through it. It also does not repair on its own, sorry to hear that surgery is in his future (and that you’ll have a man down in the house which I’m sure puts more on your plate).

    Thank you. Yes, but fortunately I'll have the 2 youngest kids here to help during the first 3 weeks (until they go back to their mom's for school) which are always the hardest weeks. They can play fetch and such for him while I work. Fortunately I've been through this before with his right shoulder (and he's right hand dominant so it was tougher) so I feel a little more comfortable and confident about my ability to help him best. We already went through the trial and error. It helps a lot that I work from home so I don't have to take time off or anything special, just hope there's nothing urgent during one of my work calls haha!

    7/01 - - I'm still dealing with TOM. Hoping this is like a little reset for my body. Between submitting my weekly check in yesterday and texting my coach to chat about my situation, she said she's going to give me a link to a reliable way to get my hormone panel from home (never had one done) as well as increasing my macros to ensure we aren't stressing my body with how active I actually am vs how low my macros are.

    @CamandJarvis I would love to have the info on how to get a hormone panel from home. If it's not just local from Texas can you share? Thanks for any info!

    Absolutely, I just text her to ask for that link/recommendation and once I get it (assuming that's still the direction we're going) I'll post it for everyone! She's in Virginia and I'm in Texas so I'm guessing it's a nationwide thing

    7/03 - 148.4 - Body settling out after the increased macros I'm assuming. Feeling good and enjoying the abundance of food! I've gotten meals planned out through Saturday next week, including making some soup and bread (and buying crackers) ahead of time for BF's surgery so he'll have something Friday night/Saturday until I'm home that will be nutritious but not too hard/heavy on his stomach. My macros are likely to reduce a bit, just not quite as low so I'm mentally preparing for that already. I think the meals are pretty well balanced so I shouldn't have an issue with meeting my goals. I haven't planned any lunches (or meal prep for lunch) so I'll need to do that. Gym today but not tomorrow- they're closed for 4th of July here in the US. I'll resume Friday. Coach just text me the link to the hormone panel so I'll get that posted for everyone interested!

    Previous Day's Comments
    6/25 - A bit of a drop off since I've been behaving and hitting my macros these last couple of days. I'm still on my lowest macros. I think she's keeping me here since I didn't quite get to track/control much of the food on vacation. I also didn't do any dedicated workouts but I definitely got a loooot of movement being at the beach and fishing! Back into routine now - morning workouts and tracking macros. All set for today and already began pre-planning tomorrow to ensure I keep up the good work!
    6/26 - I'm up a tad but I'm feeling leaner and looking a bit leaner in the mirror so I'll take it. I was slightly above macros (about 12g over carbs so 2g over my buffer window) but that was aimed at reaching my fiber goal due to missing my snack (work meeting ran from lunch to dinner with no chance to grab my snack so I had to improvise an after dinner snack). I didn't meet my step goal, either. Today I am focused on getting both in today. BF's shoulder took at turn for the worst - surgeon said no gym (even legs) until he can be seen. Fortunately, that's Monday and we don't have to wait terribly long to know what's going on. Hopefully not a surgery but I'm starting to think that's what's best otherwise it'll keep dragging out. SD and I will be going solo tomorrow and possibly Friday (she and her brother go back to their mom's for the 4th of July week on Friday so unsure if she'll go to the gym) and I'm solo for at least Monday pending doc's further instructions for BF. I hope my willpower is enough to get me up and moving!
    6/27 - DOMS? I have no idea. I'm feeling and looking as lean as I was yesterday and yesterday I felt and looked leaner than I did on Tuesday. No clue. BF ended up going to the gym despite the surgeon's orders and has been very lackadaisical about it all. I'm not going to feel so bad if he keeps going against the doc's orders and ends up needing surgery/a large length of time off the gym. He's putting himself at a higher chance of surgery/long recovery away from gym because he doesn't want to skip a couple days - he wants to look big and strong...ugh. I'm very frustrated with him. Not only for doing this to himself (SD and I tried to talk sense into him with no success) but also he ruined my workout this morning because he made me stop when he stopped due to pain... like..I'm not injured, let me finish my dang workout! I did get movement in and I did my best with what I was given but I'm definitely frustrated. At least tomorrow he won't be going due to him driving to take the kids back to their mom's for the week, but if he does, we do separate workouts Mondays and Fridays. Anyway.....rant over. I've got my meals planned for the day and all fits in macros. I'm ready for them to increase, my recovery is awful right now - I'm still very sore from Monday's leg day!
    6/28 - DNP
    6/29 - Well... TOM arrived unexpectedly. More on that below if you care/are curious. That explains the uptick followed by the sudden drop. Not much to report on. SD and I went to the gym yesterday before BF took them back. He's at his dad's now so I have a second night solo. I'm okay with that, it's quiet and calm and I honestly need the excuse to slow down a little. Groceries this morning so I could get that out of the way - all my errands and tasks are done other than making dinner tonight. Thinking of taking the dogs tomorrow morning, early, to the river to walk before it gets horribly hot out. Will see how we feel and how early I wake up naturally. No alarms for me! Meals are all planned out based on macro goal through Monday night. I'll know if there's any changes to my macros on Monday before lunch so I can adjust from there. Definitely easier to fit things in if I have everything pre-logged rather than frantically trying to do so before I eat breakfast. Breakfast and snacks are my variables, lunches and dinners I try to have already planned out and input so I have less to mess up. I'm off to go relax and read a book!
    6/30 - DNP
    7/01 - I'm still dealing with TOM. Hoping this is like a little reset for my body. Between submitting my weekly check in yesterday and texting my coach to chat about my situation, she said she's going to give me a link to a reliable way to get my hormone panel from home (never had one done) as well as increasing my macros to ensure we aren't stressing my body with how active I actually am vs how low my macros are. I haven't gotten that update from her yet, but sometime today I will. BF just got back from the doc - his bicep went from a partial tear to a full tear so he's going to have surgery. The kids are gone for 2 weeks (wedding so mom and him made a deal - we get the both weeks over Christmas rather than just 1 week to make up for the extra week she has them this summer) and then he's got to go pick them up. Then, we have First Responder's day which we already RSVP'ed for on the 16th for a Golf Tournament (Stepson and BF will go, SD and I will sit by the pool and relax) so he's hoping to have it after that. Doc said in July, though. Guess I'll be solo at the gym for awhile. It's always hard to get up and go when BF is still asleep. I get very jealous at 430am haha! Speaking of, I went solo today for leg day and increased on everything. I felt so dang good so TOM isn't impacting me in the fatigue/weakness like a normal one. I can't wait to see what I can do with increased fuel <3
    7/02 - Expected - Coach took my macros all the way back up to what we're estimating my maintenance is and what a jump! That's over 400 calories difference and in just one day. I'm feeling good though. It's much easier to track macros when I have a bit more wiggle room with them. We're going to see how I feel this week at maintenance and then try to drop me back down a bit. Not quite as low as I was, but get me back into a decent enough deficit to see some progress, albeit slower, and use this as a "diet break reset" not a full reset. BF's surgery is scheduled for the 12th - the same day we have to get the kids. Fortunately Fam is willing to take BF to surgery and such while I head up to get the kids. I'll be back the day after surgery with the kids to properly care for him then (with some help!) I'm still wrapping my head around it but I'm glad it's getting down now. He should, if all goes well, be recovered enough to go on our already-paid-for vacation in October for my birthday without too much issue/restriction.

    Hey everyone asking about that hormone panel! This is the one my Coach recommended/sent to me to look into: Female Wellness Panel

    @deepwoodslady First, HIP HIP HOORAY!!!! The struggle is real. Anytime you can defeat a craving is a big deal.

    Second- this whole vinegar and salt being a good weed killer is just not true. Please don’t do it.
    The original recipe calls for industrial vinegar. Household vinegar is just not strong enough to do any real work killing weeds long term. Industrial vinegar should not be used because it’s terrible for soil and dangerous for people and animals.
    Table salt is soluble, gets in the soil and water, and, cumulatively, causes damage to the ecosystem. At high levels, it's toxic to plants, aquatic vegetation, and wildlife.

    Basically there is no “nontoxic” weed miracle. Even the old boiling water trick harms soil bacteria and insects.

    I’m going to get down off my soap box 🥴 lol I definitely have strong feelings about this.

    @Skyleen75 Thank you for responding to the post—I was going to but you did it much better than I could have. The only really non-toxic weed killer is uprooting them. I consider it exercise, and I’ve also come to terms with not having a pristine garden. As long as the weeds aren’t thistles or poison hemlock or some other really noxious thing, I can live with them, at least for a while. 😊

    @deepwoodslady First, HIP HIP HOORAY!!!! The struggle is real. Anytime you can defeat a craving is a big deal.

    Second- this whole vinegar and salt being a good weed killer is just not true. Please don’t do it.
    The original recipe calls for industrial vinegar. Household vinegar is just not strong enough to do any real work killing weeds long term. Industrial vinegar should not be used because it’s terrible for soil and dangerous for people and animals.
    Table salt is soluble, gets in the soil and water, and, cumulatively, causes damage to the ecosystem. At high levels, it's toxic to plants, aquatic vegetation, and wildlife.

    Basically there is no “nontoxic” weed miracle. Even the old boiling water trick harms soil bacteria and insects.

    I’m going to get down off my soap box 🥴 lol I definitely have strong feelings about this.

    @Skyleen75 Wow! I honestly didn't know any of this. I was "impressed" by an article I read. I guess I won't be using vinegar. Back to the old fashioned way, by hand!

    07/02 -185.4- (Trend weight186.3) Yesterday was a good day and it reflects on the scale this morning. Sometimes it doesn’t show up right away, even with the best efforts so I was grateful to see a better number. Last night the food monster named Mr. Chocolate came out in full force. This time I won. I told myself quite clearly and TRUTHFULLY that another square of my 70% dark cocao chocolate was not going to satisfy me. I would just want more, and then more and then more, more, more, more, more, more. All another square (or two or four) would do is stop me from making any progress this morning on the scale. What it would NOT do is scratch my itch as the cravings NEVER EVER end. I mean, even when I’m over-full I just want more. After reasoning with myself, I skipped the chocolate. I don’t always win this battle but last night I did. Let’s hope for more nights like that. I want to type in pink way more often in July. June was mainly black and blue and I'm feeling very bruised over it.

    07/03 -185.4- (Trend weight186.3) I am seriously lacking water. I’ll work on that today. Finally not freezing here in Northern Michigan. A nice warm day so far after the morning rain ended. Humidity through the roof.


    07/04 -xxxxx- (Trend weightxxxxx)

    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!
