    @trooword I am inspired! ♥️ I love that you now go to a gym and we can share in our muscle pain. I can now kind of sit without pain, but I did upper body yesterday and now my triceps and upper traps are crying. 😆 Love that graphic! And now you have me wanting to make lavash bread and make some tasty food! 😀

    @DrewsAnna How fun to go to a Journey cover band! You look lovely in your makeup! 


    @micarro4 I would love a CGM to know what is going on in my body! That is so exciting that you might have solved your insomnia! Is it a matter of eating something right before you go to bed? 

    Good morning! My whole body is sore now from lifting the last two days, but I’m not stopping! Today is shoulder day. 👍I discovered something about Joe’s dementia in the last couple of days. Back story is that we never got an actual diagnosis of what type of dementia he had, and in the early days, he didn’t fit any particular type. I never thought he had Alzheimer’s, and now I truly believe he has Lewy Body dementia. He checks every single box of this terrible disease, and now that I know it will help me going forward in planning for his care. It’s all just so sad to watch my most awesome husband deteriorate into a shell of the person he was. But at least he still loves me big time, and I’m very grateful for that. Have a good day! 🙂

    good morning my friends

    Quick this morning. I had a busy weekend planned, just didn't realize how busy with all the driving. My grandkids are in a soccer tournament this weekend, there is a big agility competition going on, I have been going to watch as much as I can, a shower out at my cousins farm and our hockey team is in the playoffs that went into double overtime, so that a very very late night. I had five minutes before we have to here wanted to check in. I forgot to do my way in this morning before breakfast, I will do it tomorrow I promise!

    I will share this picture with you. The agility competition has dogs of all ages, abilities and sizes. This little peanut was so cute to watch, she jumped 4" jumps♥️

    Good morning Slims,

    WOW y'all are a chatty bunch. It took me 2 mornings to catch up on all the reading. I am going to try and chichime in on a few things now and just jump in as we move along.

    Welcome back @laurelfit57 and Welcome @alimalli86

    @trooworld It is great to see that you and your hubby joined a gym together. You are going to look dynomite in time. Keep up the great work.

    @laurelfit57 it is nice to see you back and that the pups are still keeping you moving. I missed all your posts with the pups.

    @TeresaW2024 You and joJoe are in my prayers. I hope you will find the answers to your situation with the church.

    @vegan4lyfe2012 How did your surgery go?

    @DrewsAnna Your flowers are so pretty. I bet the Journey concert was the bomb. So are you moving up to the 1mg of Wegovy. I have been on the 0.5mg for 2 months and am going to do another month. I had issues at first and the side effects have calmed down. I see my Dr on the 24 and will discuss what we will then.

    @Katmary71 That is awesome that you are fostering kittens. You do stay very busy. I get tired just reading about everything you do in a day.

    We returned home from our trip to South Padre Island this past friday. We celebrated our 29th anniversary on June 5th. The trip was a great stress relief. I did not take the scale with me 😂 I did weigh in on Sat morning to see the damages and was up a pound. Not to bad for a week of no tracking. I am finished cleaning up the RV and it is ready for the next trip coming up July 7 to McKinney Falls State Park.

    Sundays Weigh In: June 8

    HAPPY DANCE, HAPPY DANCE!! I finally did it. I am under my start weight with MFP from back on March 14 2014.

    I don't think this could have ever happened without the help of Wegovy. Even my depression has gotten better. This drug may not be for everyone but it has been a game changer for me.

    @baodell17724 thanks! I thought I was overlooking something again. Lol Keep on sharing the links.

    @TeresaW2024 im all about listening to Christian study, debates and apologetics. I have not seen the new show. At the moment I don’t have access to it. But I’m eagerly awaiting to see it. I watch Duck Dynasty on repeat.

    @trooworld I ’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. Thank you! Ugh I’ve had exertion headaches before and they’re awful! Those are some seriously awesome measurements! SO glad you didn’t have another headache. Great job crushing the workout! Lavash wraps sound delicious! Hope the gym goes well and you’re up for the nature center that sounds fun. Thanks for the recipe! I’ve been doing that with low carb tortillas in the air fryer it IS low calorie and tasty, I love Trader Joe’s sweet and spicy jalapenos on it. As kids we used to get big rounds of lavash from the bakery by the Armenian church and put squeeze butter all over them, I can’t even imagine how many calories that was!

    @TeresaW2024 Hope you had fun with the bestie ! I’m glad you had a good talk with the pastor, sounds like he’ll be less likely to be upset if you’re unable to go to church. Mike Winger’s topics look interesting I’ll let you know what I think. Yikes I’m sorry to hear of the thunderstorm waking you up those are frightening! Why are they usually worse in the middle of the night? I hope you get a break in the storms over the weekend and it’s not constant. Love reading you and Chris being so excited about workouts right now! Love your lifting enthusiasm! I’m sorry to hear about Joe fitting the traits for Lewy Body dementia (been off Googling it sounds awful).

    @bobboyardee Congratulations on going 20 days without night snacking ! I’m guessing it’s 22 today you’ve been doing so well!

    @alimalli86 Nice loss ! I hope you’re able to go for a walk too.

    @DrewsAnna The Journey cover band sounds like a blast , you look beautiful!

    @micaroo4 Yikes I ’m glad you discovered the hypoglycemia did you get the monitor because you suspected it or out of curiosity? Great to find that out! I’d definitely recommend getting a regular monitor to show you how low you’re going. I’m impressed you’re not waking up and mowing down all the food in the fridge, haha! I’ve had issues with it when I was first diagnosed as diabetic and put on too much medication then later when I lost a lot of weight. A balanced snack before bedtime can help a lot with getting through the night.

    @Cornanda I just saw posts that I didn ’t see on here last night I think you’re right it’s being glitchy. Only one of DrewsAnna’s photos were there last night too wth? Meanwhile I forgot to post my replies last night so that’s on me! Have a great time with your son! Oh I’m curious what happens with your daughter’s apartment shopping!

    @txcritter69 I ’m so glad you enjoyed your trip and anniversary! Only being up a pound is great with no tracking, chances are that will be gone fast from extra sodium. How exciting to be heading out for an RV trip soon! Congratulations for being under your start weight woot woot!

    WAY TO GO MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLES IN FIRST PLACE! Great job leading the pack @lislisa123 @19shmoo69 @sleepygirl79

    @baodell17724 Great job throwing the smaller bags of snacks away !

    @laurelfit57 Wow that IS a very busy weekend ! Great to see you drop in! I’d love to watch agility training sometime it looks so awesome.

    QUESTION: YOU WAKE UP THIS MORNING KNOWING YOU UN/INTENTIONALLY OVER-ATE YESTERDAY.

    HOW DO YOU FEEL? GUILTY AND DISAPPOINTED BUT IT’S TIME TO MOVE ON. 2. MY THOUGHTS ARE IF I’M REALLY FULL MAYBE I’LL EAT LIGHTER IN THE MORNING TO BALANCE OUT THE DAY BEFORE OR ADD A BIT MORE CARDIO. 3. WHAT WILL YOU DO? TRY TO DO BETTER AND LEARN SOMETHING FROM IT HAPPENING THE NIGHT BEFORE.

    Hi friends! I left last night and hadn’t posted my comments so this post will be huge! Yesterday morning I said bye to my roommate, turns out she had to leave some boxes behind so she’ll be back for them but she’s gone as far as living here. I went to Sacramento for the CRPS Awareness walk, I’ll post a couple pics from it soon. I went to the park and there were more people than I expected, we walked through the rose garden talking then hung out at a picnic table. One of them has the spinal symptoms I do I wish I’d gotten her number to talk to her more. I brought cuties, cheese, and a cut-up cantaloupe (CRPS color is orange) and the latter was gone super fast so glad I thought of it! I got home mid afternoon and rested for a bit then I went to the community garden to water my gardens where I planted seeds which only takes a few minutes. Unless you’re an idiot and lock keys and phone in the car! I was already exhausted and hiking to the nearest gas station when I’m in the middle of a neighborhood wasn’t in my plans but even if I made it home I couldn’t get in there either so my goal was getting a family member to call AAA for me since my card was in my car too. The attendant was great about letting me use his phones and the only two numbers I know by heart are my folks and brother and neither was picking up at first but on the 8th try my brother picked up and called his AAA for me and he came to sit with me and wait (a stranger gave me a ride back she was awesome) as I had to sit in the parking lot to show them where my car was (in back down a road and I’d locked it in as I had my purse in the front seat). Today we celebrated Father’s Day early, my Dad wanted help in his yard. I woke up flared up and still went and am exhausted now, just got out of the tub. Food hasn’t been the greatest but I feel like I’m mentally straightening out.

    Have a great Monday everyone.

    WEIGH IN UPDATE
    WEIGH INS DUE TODAY FROM
    @laurelfit57 (tomorrow is fine no worries!)
    Reminder To Weigh In Tomorrow To @vegan4lyfe2012 @bobboyardee @AustinRuadhain

    Have an odd question what made you pick your weigh in day? Why are YOU a Monday or Friday weigh-in?

    I was weighing in on Mondays when I was doing really good, it helped me stay on track on weekends. With my CRPS relapse and struggling more often I decided on Friday to take some of the stress off. Debating on changing it back now that I'm thinking of it.

    micaroo4 Posts: 4,845 Member

    What made you pick your weigh in day? I chose Saturday because that's the weigh in day of the 5% Challenge. I weigh myself daily, so I just chose Saturday so I'd remember to post it.

    @trooworld - I'm so sorry about your friend- I forgot to post that yesterday Hugs to you.

    @txcritter69 - Congrats on your success with Wegovy!

    @Katmary71 - Ugggggh- Sounds like you had the definition of both a very good and very bad day!

    @TeresaW2024 - It must be so hard to deal with the decline of a spouse. Keep on weight lifting- go you!

    @laurelfit57 - that sounds like a very busy weekend. I would love to see the 4 inch jumps!

    "Have an odd question what made you pick your weigh in day? Why are YOU a Monday or Friday weigh-in?"

    I decided to keep with Saturday, even before I joined MFP and any of the Challenges, because I started my wellness journey on SATURDAY, June 1st, 2024, and so it seemed appropriate. (Of course, I'm also in a TOPS men's group on THURSDAY, and so now I really have to be "on my toes" with my exercising and eating, because I have to report then as well !!! 😮 LOL

    QUESTION: You wake up this morning, knowing you un/intentionally over-ate yesterday.

    1. How do you feel? I am sad.
    2. What are your thoughts? I get on the scale to see where things are. I start by thinking about actions to take this week to improve. The next set of thoughts is thinking about the situation and how to plan better for next time.
    3. What will you do? I extend my morning fasting window, assuming I am not hungry. I make plans forf the week to get back on my food and exercise plan.

    Now for socializing and a check-in! (Take 2. I just had a copy of this comment completely disappear when I hit an incorrect key. My fault. I am back to tying this up elsewhere and then pasting it in.)

    Also, I, too, had the odd experience of checking in on MFP and it seeming quiet, and now am seeing a flood of new posts.

    @lislisa123 and @19shmoo69 and @sleepygirl79 - Congratulations on the great week you all had! Thanks for inspiring and leading the way!

    @trooworld - Congratulations on being the good kind of sore today! Your husband sounds like such a good friend, noticing the changes and saying so. Thanks for sharing your pictures. I loved that fierce flexed arm in the “now” picture.
    Also, the lavash pizza sounds delicious! Fresh thyme is so nice. I hope the new breakfast with spinach and eggs came out well!

    @Katmary71 - What a packed weekend you had. I am sorry about the almost final departure of your roommate. That sounds like a sad change. You have all my sympathy about locking keys in the car. Ouch. We have all done it, but it’s no fun. It was sweet of you to do Father’s Day gardening when you were flared up. I hope you are recovering well today. {{HUG}}

    @txcritter69 - Congratulations on the milestone! Your RV adventures sound so fun. Enjoy the July trip to McKinney Falls. That’s a beautiful park!

    @laurelfit57 - The agility competition looks and sounds super fun! The little dog making 4-inch jumps sounds so cute!

    @TeresaW2024 - Your gym work is inspiring! I am about to start making myself sore this week with daily calisthenics. I am looking forward to joining the ranks of the sore. Your husband's dementia sounds so tough (I looked it up; wow).

    @Cornanda - It sounds like exciting times at your house. Your DD's “champagne tastes and a beer budget” made me smile.

    @micaroo4 - A big wow to the detective work as regards your blood sugar! Crossing my fingers that this turns out to resolve the insomnia.

    @jessicakrall8 - Thanks for your work on the Glass Half Full Challenge. I will check it out!

    @DrewsAnna - The Journey cover band concert sounds super fun. You look great in your picture, eye makeup and all!

    * * *

    I had a good weekend. Friday night I went to the first meeting of a new book club. We went to a super sweet little place that had no really good food choices for me. I had checked the menu ahead of time and made sure I didn't go hungry. I went with the only fruit option (apples from a slice of vegan pie) and enjoyed the conversation enormously. I got in on this late and had not read the book, so I just listened to that part of the discussion and said not to worry about spoilers.
    I got in long walks on Saturday (85 min) and Sunday (92 min) and am sore today. I included a few intervals early on on the Saturday walk, to help myself speed up, and was happy with that. Sunday, I just wanted to get in the walking time in despite having headed out when it was hot. I walked slower and got through despite the heat, though I drank 24 oz of water when I got home. I was playing a game to earn a Garmin badge of 5 walks over a week, each 5 minutes longer than the last. There's another one that's a two week challenge with 10 walks. I will have to start over and be disciplined about keeping my starting walks shorter. I cannot see continuing and having my Sunday walk this week be 145 minutes.
    My son came home for a bit over the weekend, which was great fun. We all talked a lot, and watched an episode of Murderbot together, which was relaxing and funny. He and my husband talked for two hours on Saturday night about life, coding, AI and philosophy. My son and I went thrifting on Sunday, as he wanted some nicer clothes before he heads out of town for an internship. I came home with two new pairs of workout pants. My favorite bit: he found a shirt he liked with a small stain. It was a black shirt with irregular gray threads shot through, and the stain was dark reddish, as if a spot had been bleached slightly. I suggested he get it and that we try fixing the spot with a black Sharpie. We came home and he gave the sharpie a try, and all looked good. Next time we walk, I will ask if it came out of the wash okay. It was certainly fun to try rescuing it, as it was a really nice shirt.
    Okay, time to post this, as my poor neglected cats, Piku and Habibi, assure me they are starving and I am ready for a cup of coffee!

    @Cornanda Thank you! I know that you understand how hard it can be to care for someone with dementia. Yeah, my job/church issues are complicated, but I am putting Joe first, which makes the tough talks easier. We have our big 75th anniversary planned for the end of the month, and I’m not going, so they will have to figure out the details all by themselves. I will of course order their chicken so they don't starve! 😃 That is so awesome that you love your new garage gym. My home gym is truly one of my happy places. I hope you get rain and can enjoy time with your kids. I to have champagne taste on a beer budget! 😉

    @19shmoo69 Who is your favorite Duck family member? I gotta go with Uncle Si of course! That dude is insane! 🤣 We also love Duck Family Treasure, which follows Jase and Jep Robertson, along with their friend Murray. They use metal detectors to search for historical artifacts and buried treasures. Watching how excited they get when they dig up their treasure is great fun. 😃

    @Katmary71 Yeah, Lewy Body is an ugly disease, but now that I see how much he fits ALL the symptoms, I’ve already gained so much more understanding about what is happening and where we are going. I am always one who wants the cold hard facts and I'm getting them. ☹️ I’m glad the walk went well. I love that you brought themed colored food! Yikes on locking your keys in your car! That totally sucks but I’m glad you were able to get a hold of you brother to call AAA. You must have been so upset with yourself. 😖 I choose Tuesday for my weigh-in because that is my sister’s day, and it’s easier to plan our splurges. 😁

    @trooworld Ohhhh girl, I know about that toilet pain! 😆I keep vowing that I will never stop lifting so my butt won’t ever hurt that bad again. But I never keep the vow!! 😩 Look at you! You are the incredible shrinking lady!! I love it so much for you. ♥️

    Good morning! We had a rough night with Joe and his dreams. Sometimes he sleeps like the dead; other nights it’s a full-blown party of bad dreams. We got up early, and he is feeling extra fragile and needy. I’m taking today off from working out, which makes my muscles happy. I have a Walmart order coming soon, but I’m unsure what I will do for dinner. It’s always annoying when all you have are ingredients and have to put them together to make a meal. 😆

    QUESTION: You wake up this morning, knowing you un/intentionally over-ate yesterday.

    1. How do you feel? If it was a planned indulgence, then I own it and move on. If instead it is a willful disobedience to my plan, then I’m mad at myself. 
    2. What are your thoughts? My thoughts are to repent and forgive myself and move on. I’ve learned that beating myself up over my poor choices doesn’t do any good. Not always as easy as it sounds. 
    3. What will you do? I get back to doing what I need to do.

    Hi 👋

    Yesterday was a hot and miserable day. I pretty much hate anything over 80 and it was almost 90°, lol… I am the definition of a fair weather person. It's cooling down a bit today, low 80's instead of upper 80's.

    I need to start logging my food again. I was doing for awhile, but slacked off. I've been eating sweets again, even though it's making my stomach upset.

    "Have an odd question what made you pick your weigh in day? Why are YOU a Monday or Friday weigh-in?"

    I chose Wednesday because years ago, the first time I did WW, my weigh in was Tuesday evening at the meetings. So, Wednesday morning just felt "right".

    @txcritter69 I started 1.0 last week. When I was in the hospital I had 2 0.5 left and had to skip a week. I started again when I got out, a week behind and had side effects. I started 1.0 last week and I was a little tired, but that didn't last, but a day or so. In my opinion, if you are losing weight, stay there until you need to increase. I'm not a dr though, so definitely talk to your dr.

    Y'all have a great day 😀

    Monday Check in:

    📥 Days without eating after dinner: 23!

    ✅ Positive Improvement Week!

    Starting Weight: 214.7

    Previous Week: 204.8

    Current Weight: 203.5

    —————————-
    Why did I pick Monday?

    No real reason, just thought it would make sense to start the week!

    QUESTION: You wake up this morning, knowing you un/intentionally over-ate yesterday.

    These answers are really different now that I have had 23 consecutive days without bingeing. Surprisingly, they are way more gentle/forgiving/calm

    1. How do you feel?  I have some regret, but I give myself grace because I'm a human and I'm not perfect. I feel happy to be alive and have great friends, a great husband*, an awesome dog, an awesome house, a great career, and it's just nice to go outside and look at the beautiful sky and trees.
    2. What are your thoughts?I give my "inner child" a big hug and say, it's okay buddy, don't feel bad! You're not in trouble! We're going to have a great day today! Look how beautiful the world is! Look at the moon, the stars, the sun, the forest, the fields! You're part of all this beauty. Let's talk about all the progress you made, the 23 consecutive days you did, the 10 years of failed attempts before that - you've always been trying, you never gave up, you're a really strong person!
    3. What will you do?lift my head high and smile! take a deep breath and plan a great day for myself with some fellowship, friendship, work, fun, and rest.

    *I still need to introduce myself, but I'll share that I am gay and have a husband! Happy Pride Month! 🏳️‍🌈

    Hello to the newbies, welcome back to old friends and a Good Day to everyone else! First, my intro: My name is Jennifer and I’m a single 51 year old living in beautiful Southwest Michigan, right on the Lake (throw a stone across the Lake and you’d hit Chicago). I have an American Blue rabbit (her name is Kismet). I have 3 children in their 20s and 5 grandchildren (the oldest turned 2 in April). I go by Grammy since I consider them to be my Grammy Awards 😊

    I love to rubber stamp (I’m a Stampin’ Up demo) and make cards. I'm an active member of my church, and also love horror movies. I have worked in Community Development at my County for over 20 years.

    I have always been a yo-yo dieter, but mostly up. I have 55 pounds to lose (goal is 155). I am, by nature, a Negative Nancy, but I am trying to stay focused and positive. I see my therapist biweekly and he’s been a tremendous help with understanding that my ADHD causes me to be a dopamine chaser…both with food and acquiring things. Right now, I’m stuck in a Catch-22: I need a stimulant ADHD med, but can’t be on it cuz of high blood pressure (yes, I have meds for that). I have to lose weight to get the blood pressure back under control. The stimulant med would curb my appetite, but…can’t take it cuz of the BP. I’m a mess LOLs

    OK…there was my super late intro for June. My cataract surgery was successful. I’m now 20/20 in my left eye. I already was 20/20 in my right eye, so I just need readers. HUGE problem, tho. I’m so used to glasses with bifocal readers, that I absolutely HATE the back and forth of putting readers on, taking them off, putting them on. Frankly, it’s a bunch of BS. So I’m going to see about getting bifocals with just the readers in them. In the meantime, I’m still wearing my old glasses so there’s no transition issues.

    I’ve been super busy with my Grammy Awards…kept Oliver (16 months old) Friday morning to Sunday evening while his mother went on a camping trip. He’s perfect, but exhausting. Byron’s 2nd Birthday was yesterday and his sister’s 1st Birthday is tomorrow. Lots of behbeh activities. But managed to sneak in some movie time, too. @bobboyardee – have you watched Dangerous Animals yet? One word review: Nailbiting!!! And it's about time for your total intro, my buddy!

    Been thinking about some changes I need to make. I did my usual 1 pound of beans yesterday for the week – Rancho Gordo Yellow Eye Beans. Creamy deliciousness. Having some for lunch with carrots, brown & wild rice, and avocado. Not sure what dinner will be cuz I’ll be watching my husband on the big screen (Ballerina) LOLs. I’m going to start daily weighing and tracking to see what affects me the most.

    @micaroo4 – If you remember to, please keep me accountable for the tracking with a nudge here and there.

    @baodell17724 – Thank you for sharing your journey! What an inspiration! And thanks for the skinny cocktails list :) LOLs on the rower escapades.

    @trooworld – WOOT WOOT on the water intake and what awesome measurement decreases! You are looking FABULOUS!

    @Katmary71 – Hugs. Sorry about your roommate.

    My Mantra: 2025 is MY year!

    Reminder TO Weigh In Tomorrow To
    @FushiaKat @TeresaW2024

    @vegan4lyfe2012 I'll go leave a note to have your weigh-in day moved to Friday. Want to weigh in for the week on Friday instead of today or skip Friday and keep today then go to Friday the week after? The current "weigh in" week is June 8- June 14 and the next one is June 15- June 21st so if you weigh in today and on Friday it's twice for the same week.

    @trooworld What ’s sad is I still know childhood friend’s numbers but next to none now! LOL don’t worry about the periods and extra spaces. When I don’t use Word it adds 5 lines wherever I had an empty line like between comments then smashes two words together in every row, no clue why that is. Yay for having a lot of energy! What a difference in the before and after you look great and thinner all over!

    @AustinRuadhain Oh no I ’m sorry about your post disappearing I hate that! Thanks! What book are you reading for the club? I’m glad you and your son found some good clothes thrifting and spent some good quality time together. Poor deprived kitties go feed them and add a couple treats!

    @TeresaW2024 Poor Joe I hope he ’s able to shake the bad dream feelings.

    @DrewsAnna I ’m so glad Wegovy has gone well for you and you haven’t had many issues.

    @bobboyardee Oh you ’re so close to Onederland wtg! I love your answer to overindulging I think you had very smart answers. Congrats on the husband, Happy Pride Month!

    @vegan4lyfe2012 Your beans sound delicious as does your lunch ! Thank you. Love the Chat GPT positive affirmations those are great!

    Hi team! I’m on early, have HOA stuff to do tonight. I got up this morning to get the mushroom bags turned into kits to take to the farm. I had some of another volunteer’s and half of them molded unfortunately, I took three in with my four so hopefully we’ll have a lot of mushrooms soon. I put stickers on the ones that may turn moldy and they’re in a Martha tent by themselves. I picked green beans, harvested dill seeds, and reclipped cucumbers to the string trellis then came home to eat. I went to CVS and the grocery store. At the store I saw a man who is a raw fruit grower who said he’d come to the community garden and give us advice on our fruit trees so I nailed down a time for him to come. He’s the one who donated the dragon fruit plant I won that I’m planning to grow there. Not much else going on need to get caught up on work and spend time in the yard around some HOA stuff. Have a great Monday night and Tuesday!

    @txcritter69 wow , huge congratulations to you both on 29 years!!  I'm so happy to hear that Wegovy is so helpful for you!


    @trooworld so sorry to hear about your friend .   I have never heard of an exertion headache, that sounds brutal!  I find the stairs at our gym can be the worst part of my workout, especially on leg day🤣.  I have never heard of lavash bread, is it good?  That pizza recipe looks good!  OMG!! What a difference with your pictures! Are you finding it easier on your body now?  


    @TeresaW2024 awwww poor Maggie and poor you with the thunderstorm . Growing up on the prairies, we have huge boomers, I think I just got used to them as a little child. Many dogs (and people ) here are really terrified by all the noise. With both of my dogs, I did training with them since the moment I got them to desensitize them to the sound of thunderstorms. They are like me now, we all snore soundly when those boomers hit.  Good for you on the weight training!!  I am so very sorry you're going through that with Joe, how could he not love you big time♥️!!!


    @Cornanda wow ! A gym in your garage! That sounds awesome!!


    @Katmary71 what a day !!!  I'm sorry your roommate moved out.


    I didn't respond to all that I had intended to, I am starting to run out of steam lol. It was a super fun weekend, the weather was crazy Saturday was cold and windy Sunday was boiling hot. Had a lot of fun between going to the Agility event, my grandkids soccer tournaments and a wedding shower out at the farm. I went through a full tank of gas from Thursday to Sunday🤣. Great day today, got a spin class in, brunch with a friend shopping done a big long walk with the dogs first thing in the morning and then I took them for a run early this afternoon. The scale shows I put on a pound, I think it could be the quality of food that I ate this weekend i.e. lots of salt. My grandkids had the day off school today and asked if they could come over. I was a really bad grandma and said no not today. I have been with them all weekend, my house looks like a bomb went off in it, and I just need to slow down for a day and gather myself back together lol. Food was back on track today, I always have such a hard time tracking when I'm eating out and making it up.   I try to make good choices, but who knows what is lurking in god when you are out and about. 

    I hope everybody had a great day!

    "Progress over Perfection" is a nice motto, but remember that it's Consistency that actually works. Make sure everything in your plan is sustainable. If it's not, figure out why not, and start tweaking until you can sustain the habit.

    Write it before you bite it

    Log it before you hog it (or at least take a picture of it so you can log it later).

    OMGoodness, @micaroo4 hahahaha! You are cracking me up! Log it before you hog it! Hahahahahaha!

    Yes, Ma'am!
