    A better week. Even though I’m up from where I was a month ago I need to remember where I am coming from. Today I’m off to drop my daughter at another camp. This will be her second week camping this summer and trying a new place on Lake Huron. She loves camping so I hope she loves this one as much as her regular camp. My son is still quite sick so unfortunately he has to tag along in the car and hopefully just sleep the whole time.

    WEIGH IN UPDATE
    WEIGH-INS DUE NOW PLEASE: @littlebabekitty @vegan4lyfe2012 @laurelfit57
    Reminder to Weigh In Tomorrow: @AmbersWay @AustinRuadhain

    Hi friends! I was with my family yesterday, today I'm meeting the CRPS group about 30 miles away then going to my brother's for a BBQ. We're hoping my aunt is discharged today and can head back home tomorrow but it will depend on her pain. Two other aunts are in town as well and we're hoping to still get together for the BBQ if my aunt is up for it. I just finished cleaning the house as my cousins want to fly out if she's here longer than a few days and my parent's house is crammed with people. Have a good Sunday!

    Quick check in, I probably won't be tomorrow. It was a good day, I stayed on track and tracked all day:). For my grandkids birthday we have a special day of their choosing. My granddaughter has chosen a kids play place where we will play and eat dinner then do a little shopping. Have a great day everyone!

    WOO HOO! LOOK AT US! 1st place by % and pounds! Way to go, team! And a special shout-out goes to @vegan4lyfe2012, @bethanie0825, and @19shmoo69 (welcome back, Darren!) for leading the way!

    @Megnolia82 Congrats on the loss! I hope your daughter enjoys the camping and that your son feels better soon, poor kid.

    @txcritter69 @laurelfit57 Congrats on the losses!

    @Katmary71 I hope you had fun at the BBQ. I hope your aunt was up for it.

    HI all. We gave all the donuts away, so I actually only had the donut we bought at the donut shop and none of the free ones. We did our running around yesterday and then came home and I started to play a new videogame that is a simulation game of making a zoo called "Planet Zoo". It seemed a bit complicated to learn on a Sunday night so I stopped and will play it next weekend. The weekends fly by so quickly and now it's time to go to work already. Darn.

    Wahhoooo on making number one on the Leaderboard!!! :star::star::star:


    Good morning! Just a quick stop because I have a busy day. Joe has his four-month CT Scan today, then we need to run to Aldi, and my bestie is coming for coffee. Not much else has been going on around here. Have a great day! :)

    Good Morning,
    Congrats to @vegan4lyfe2012 @bethanie0825 and @19shmoo69 WTG!

    Sorry that I have been quiet. There has not been much going on here. I am trying to stick to my new workout plan and been cutting my food intake in half. I don't want to jinks myself but I think I may have actually lost 5 lbs. I have been able to stay under 170 for the last month. Now to work on the next 5 lbs.
    For those keeping up with Diesel He is coming home in 1 hr. I am so EXCITED. I will be able to get on a new routine with him and back in the game. I am so glad that I was able to stay about the same weight while he was gone and not go on a binge eating spree. This video is a bit longer than the others.

    @trooworld That was very nice of you to visit your friend, I'm sure it made her day. The donut shop sounds fun, I feel the same about donuts but it would still be hard not to keep them, your neighbors lucked out! That game sounds fun, it reminds me of some of the cool ones @FushiaKat plays where she creates elaborate rooms or gardens.

    @megnolia82 I hope your daughter has a great time, sounds fun! I hope your son is feeling better soon.

    GO MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLES IN FIRST PLACE FOR THE SECOND WEEK OF JULY, WOOHOO! @vegan4lyfe2012 @bethanie0825 @19shmoo69 Way to go on leading the pack this week!

    @19shmoo69 Great to see you back!

    @laurelfit57 Have a wonderful time celebrating your grandkids birthday! Is it just the one granddaughter or other ones too?

    @TeresaW2024 Hope the scan goes well today, have fun with the bestie!

    @txcritter69 I can't imagine how much you're looking forward to seeing Diesel, way to go on avoiding a binge! Have a great night with him, I'm watching the video now.



    Hi friends! I met with the nutritionist earlier, she gave me an award and an EMF-protection necklace which was super sweet of her. She had something for my roommate and he just headed down to see her, she has a stone necklace for him which I think he'll love, it will mean a lot to him. I'm going to a class tonight at the place I'll start working at soon. Weekend was crazy, my aunt was discharged yesterday and is resting for the flight home. There's a chance she DOESN'T have cancer she'll have to get the biopsy to know, meanwhile she's told everyone and people have been flipping out, seems like they shouldn't say you have something if they aren't sure! I have 2 scoops left of ice cream from yesterday then I need to break my ice cream eating, I at least mostly had light ice cream but I can't be having dessert every night! Have a great night and awesome Tuesday!

    @TeresaW2024 I hope Joe's scan went well and you had a good time with your BFF!

    @txcritter69 Yay for sticking to your plan and double yay for Diesel coming home!!! Great job not binging. I can't wait to hear how your reunion went.

    @19shmoo69 Welcome back!

    @Katmary71 She was happy we visited (I went with a work friend). Yeah, my neighbors were happy lol. Yes, the game is fun! That was nice of the nutritionist. Tell us about the place you are going to be working at. Well, that's good your aunt might not have cancer (fingers crossed).

    @AustinRuadhain Congrats on the loss!

    DISCUSSION QUESTION: What is one decision you can make today that works towards your goals? I can set a timer to get UP from my chair at work every hour. I've been far too sedentary!

    Hi all. My morning yesterday was crappy: I was late taking a shower before work which made me frazzled and late so I forgot my work laptop at home. I didn't realize it until I got to work. I work 45-60 minutes away from home so I couldn't go back and get it. I sat at the reference desk but couldn't concentrate and couldn't do much and was in such a bad mood. I got permission from my manager to go home at lunchtime and work from home. Things got better when I got home. I hope today is better!

    @Katmary71 That was nice of your nutritionist to give you an award and protection nectace. I’m praying your aunt’s biopsy will show NO cancer! I sat between Joe and my sister yesterday as they ate a yummy Drumstick ice cream while I ate a little 20 cal. Popsicle. It was fine, just fine! :D Oh, don’t forget that I’m on support for the foreseeable future and won’t be weighing in. ;)


    @trooworld Uggh, forgetting your laptop when you work so far away would be so annoying. I’m glad your manager let you go home and work. We will find out tomorrow about Joe. I’m sure it will be all good. It better be!! :)


    Good morning! I have another busy day. I need to meet pest control at the church and do my office work. Then I get to go to the bank because the church’s account has been hacked again! I’m going to close out the account and open a new one. This is a huge hassle and expensive because I just ordered checks for the church and will need new ones ASAP. Pastor called me yesterday and wants me to assemble a facility use form, which must be created from scratch. He also wants me to put together a list of our members and the areas they serve. Ohhhh joy!! I’m skipping my workout so I can get ready and get out of the house. Y’all have a good day! :)


    DISCUSSION QUESTION: What is one decision you can make today that works towards your goals?

    I can decide that even though my normal routine has changed today and I have to make adjustments, I can continue doing what I can do. That means NO snacking even though I’m stressed out! :D

    I can choose to not snack. I can choose to move more than I do. I can drink water even when I'm not thirsty.

    My leg is healing up nicely, no more pain but it's going to scar. Now I will have to explain how I got Tiger Stripes down the front of my left leg. The Plum trees are ready and omg are they tasty. I'm excited for my lunch date on Saturday, I found the Valey parking today, so I'll be good. It took me an hour to get there so I will allow an hour and a half. It's really hot here but I'm staying cool inside. I hope everybody is taking care of themselves in this heat.

    Reminder to Weigh in Tomorrow to the Following: @DrewsAnna

    @TeresaW2024 I wasn't sure what you had decided on being moved but agree that does sound best for now, I just asked to have you moved to support team so you're all set!

    @trooworld Thank you thank you for posting a question! Last night I was going to do it after my bath then woke up this morning and realized I'd forgotten but you'd covered me, thank you! Walking sounds like a great plan, are you still doing awesome with water? Oh no forgetting your computer really stinks I'm sorry! Leaving early would help my mood too!

    What is One Decision You Can Make Today That works Toward your goals? To stop eating ice cream and get back on track!

    @TeresaW2024 I requested to have you moved. Way to go on sticking to the 20 calorie popsicle!
    Thank you I hope so too! The nutritionist is a sweetheart, the sad part about my last situation is those of us who were really trying to make things work all got taken advantage of. Oh no that's awful the church account was hacked! Good luck getting everything taken care of that sounds awful.

    @micaroo4 I like checking off lists too!

    @19shmoo69 You got this! Hm I haven't seen that blog article so I'm not really sure how to do so either as they took all that away.

    @FushiaKat Yum enjoy the plums they sound so good! Have a wonderful lunch date!

    @littlebabekitty Wonderful to see you, you're doing great!

    Hi team! Huge SHOUTOUT and Thank You To @trooworld , I forgot the question last night! I worked out this morning then went to the farm, we got a lot of canteloupe and winter squash planted. I was so tired I came home and fell asleep for an hour! Farm camp is going the rest of the week so I think we're taking it off. The owner of the boutique invited the nutritionist to a class who invited me, I ended up crashing a women's Bible study last night but it was fun so I may keep on going. I'm trying to get caught up on charity stuff I'd fallen behind on, I'm taking a sign to be posted at the location we're having the salsa cook-off next month and aside of that I need to get caught up on the work I do for my brother. Have a great night and awesome Wednesday!

    @txcritter69 it looks like you have an amazing trainer for Diesel! How was his first night home?

    @Katmary71 it was just my granddaughter. I just have one grandson and one granddaughter, when their birthday is coming up we spend a day together doing things that they choose.
    Your nutritionist sounds amazing! What kind of place are you going to start working at? Good news about your aunt that would be so wonderful if she did not have cancer. YUM ice cream lol!

    @trooworld It is so hard when you start a day like that! I would not have been happy at all either if I was you. I'm glad things improved once she got home

    @TeresaW2024 that is crazy that their account has been hacked again! It sounds like you have an extremely busy time ahead of you.

    It was a great day yesterday, I started out with taking my dogs to a private dog park for an hour. It was just Ty, Vannie and me in this lovely wooded area that was all fenced in, it was like a private forest.
    Then my granddaughter chose a play place to go for her birthday day out, there were lots of games to play as well as equipment to play on. My granddaughter won 500 tickets so she was super excited! She was able to get tons of prizes with that. After Paisley left at lunchtime I took Vannie for an agility practice. The temperature has gone back up here, so it will be 6 AM walks once again this week. Hope everybody had a great Tuesday!

    @txcritter69 I know you are excited to get Diesel home! I can’t wait to hear how his training works now that he is home with you. :)

    @Katmary71 You are so busy! :) I miss women’s Bible study and many of the ladies who have left the church for various reasons. I would love to lead a women’s study, but right now, with Joe, that would be too difficult. Maybe someday. :)

    @laurelfit57 Whoa, I would be excited, too, if I won 500 tickets. How awesome that it was on her birthday. That pic of Ty and Vannie looks like they just shared a very funny joke. I love them! :D


    Good morning! It’s a long story with the bank, but there seemed to be a glitch with the service we pay a lot for to keep us from experiencing fraud. It is hopefully fixed, and at this time, I don’t have to close out the account, but I will keep my eye on it. :/ I will do a quick workout this morning and then take Joe to see his oncologist to get the results of his CT scan. Tonight, I have a staff meeting. We haven’t had one in such a long time, and I’m just hoping it doesn’t go too late. I’m still unsure if I will bring Joe or leave him home with my sister. He is fine if he doesn’t decide to get up and do stuff. Just stay put, Joe!! :#

    @TeresaW2024 It was so annoying and just put me in the worst mood and when you are in a bad mood, it's so hard to deal with patrons lol. Thinking good thoughts for Joe! What a hassle that the account got hacked, ugh! I'm sorry that happened. Do you know what is going on/how it is happening? Man, that new pastor is definitely keeping you on your toes, isn't he? Oh it's so easy to snack when you are stressed. Stay strong, Teresa! Oh, I just read about the glitch ugh. I hope Joe stays put.

    @19shmoo69 I had to use that feature when I was seeing a dietician, I had to share my logging and tracking. I can't see a use for it other than that!

    @littlebabekitty Congrats on the loss!

    @Katmary71 I don't mind doing it, you do all the spreadsheet stuff, so if you want me to handle the questions, I am fine with it! Of course, you may think it's fun and want to do it every other week and I'm fine with that, too, just let me know! :D I am doing awesome with water although yesterday, I only drank 49 oz of water because I was so busy. Sounds like you needed that sleep, you sound busy!

    @laurelfit57 Yes!!! I was in such a foul mood lol. For the sake of every other library employee, I needed to go home lol. Did you take the pups to a Sniffspot? I don't know if you have those where you live, but down here in Southern California, you can rent someone's backyard to bring your dogs to play in. Some people have pools for the dogs, etc. I want to go but my husband said it's a waste of money. Boo on him. Wow, your lucky granddaughter! How fun. The pups look very happy. What a great place to take them!

    Hi all. Yesterday was a much better day although I was on my feet practically the whole day thanks to tasks I had to do. I was very tired when I got home. Luckily, I didn't have to cook it was my husband's turn to cook. He made air-fried pork tenderloin with BBQ sauce, buttered noodles, and roasted broccoli. It was good. I think this morning will be my once-a-week treat from the cafe at work: I will get a scramble (or maybe I'll make one here at home!). I've been eating Greek yogurt, berries, and bananas for months now and am getting sick of it!

    Ugh. Blaming hospital food & stress eating.

    I tried reading the previous posts, but it's just too much to go back all last week. Oliver is doing so much better and we got to take him home last Thursday evening. He doesn't like the taste of the medicine, but at every 12 hours for the next 2 years, I'm sure he'll get used to it. We're hoping this is the kind of epilepsy that he'll grow out of. Thank you for all the prayers! Here's Oliver in the PICU and then the day after he got to leave. Amazing difference!
    78aw8a44cel1.jpg

    I have to be truthful now. My eating has been atrocious. No good choices at the hospital and way too much snacky-style foods. Then when I got back home for the weekend, I just stress relief ate too much...we're talking Incogmeato (fake chik strips), vegan ranch (not the low cal kind I make, but Hidden Valley), Takis, cookies and candy. Just on and on. I finally am back on the WW points counting wagon. At first I was going to say "screw it" until Sunday for the start of a new week, but then said, "No! I'm starting now!" I just ate a fresh peach and chopped veggies and have an easy bean & veg soup simmering for my lunch. Yes, it's super hot outside, but I'm staying inside, so soup it is!

    Side note to my horror movie lovers - I needed "me" time the past couple days to destress, so I watched 3 movies (first time ever of going to the movies by myself...yes, I survived).
    Monday I watched A Quiet Place: Day One. It was ok. Definitely like the first one the most. This one kinda reminded me of Cloverfield.
    Yesterday was a double feature. First was Longlegs. So slow and dumb. And Nicolas Cage looked like Marilyn Manson. Second was MaXXXine. Liked it a LOT more. Great 80s vibe. Just didn't like the "reveal" of the serial killer at the end. Went off the rails. I definitely liked the first 2 movies better.

    I hope everyone has a good Wednesday. Stay hydrated!
