Hi 👋
Dinner was awesome last night. We went to Fujiyama steakhouse and it's always a good time.
Today, I have to get back on track, although I have plenty of leftovers from last night. I'm sure hubby will help with those. Lol… and stay away from the Nutella 😅😅
I'm so happy I get to stay home today. I'm not sure what I'll get into, but there's always something lol....
Y'all have a great day 😀

WEIGH IN UPDATE
Reminder TO Weigh In Tomorrow To @gemwolf110 @digger61 @baodell17724 @alimalli860 -
SUPERSTITIOUS? Yes a little, more like it stands out in my mind not to step on a crack or I cringed back when we had a feed and someone burned 666 calories (I always did something to burn a few more or eat something else so I didn't have that).
Here's the kittens, they were super scared yesterday and were clinging to each other as they'd just been taken from their mom and siblings, right now they're making a ton of noise in the bathroom so I better check on them! I tried my micro current to calm them down yesterday (put it on alpha which takes you out of fight-or-flight) and it made a huge difference. The calico is a girl and the orange and gray tabby are boys. She's definitely the boss I brought in Temptation treats and she would shove the boy's faces away so she could eat them first!

@baodell17724 This is the first time I’m hearing the term “fibermaxxing”! I have tried to add more here and there but am not eating most grains because of gluten or another inflammatory reasons. I do good with beans, sweet potatoes, and winter squash. I never thought of dragon fruit as having a lot of fiber how fascinating!
@trooworld Yes you can call me a cat lady!! Yay I’m so glad to hear your appointment went so well! I think you can cover that with exercise especially if the traffic keeps giving you time to go to the gym. That chicken salad looks delicious! I don’t know if I have Frank’s Hot Sauce I’ll see if I have anything similar I can use. Hang in there it IS possible to hold onto water lifting weights so maybe next week show the loss.
@AustinRuadhain The woman who runs the rescue group was just saying that about black cats being harder to adopt. I’m not sure why I’ve loved all the black cats I’ve known! When I got my guys I was looking for a black cat but they didn’t have any at the time. Yours Is beautiful! Love how you evaluated why your weigh in was higher than you expected and dealt with it in a factual way wtg!
@vegan4lyfe2012 I’d love to hear any good tips you learn from High Carb Hannah’s book. Yay on both Oliver and Byron calling you grammy that’s so awesome! Yum your meals sound awesome. My stomach is shaky tonight so I skipped dinner (which I never do), earlier I had beef and broccoli with udon noodles.
@DrewsAnna Oh that steakhouse sounds amazing! Hope you have a wonderful time at home today, watch out for Nutella and leftovers! It’s kind of embarrassing but I can’t have peanut butter in the house at all.
Hi gang! I made about 30 basil bundles at the farm today and got all the flowers trimmed. I wasn’t feeling good when I got home so I took a nap and decided to stay home tonight (was going to a concert in the park event). The kittens are still nervous around me but are playing and being silly now which is fun to watch, I’m bribing them with Temptation treats, lickables, and toys. The little gray kitty is a lot like Asher he’s always shoved to the back and last one to get stuff but he loves toys and playing! My cats got a little peek at them and don’t know what to do. I’m hoping to get my trellises wrapped up this weekend my oldest nephew got the 6 foot T posts in for me so I just need the energy to deal with all the fencing. Might do a morning farmer’s market run too. Have a great Saturday everyone!

@Katmary71 oh my word, those kittens are way way way too cute!!
This is a super quick check-in I had a busy day, I did not eat nearly enough earlier in the day and afraid I overdid it tonight. Grandkids are sleeping over and can I just say… They are not getting along… It has been a very long evening🤣. I am going on a down syndrome walk tomorrow morning, if the weather is OK I will bring Ty , but they are forecasting rain. My bonus daughter is doing a hoop performance tomorrow evening. I probably won't check in until Sunday. Hope everybody has a terrific weekend!

Absolutely over the moon with this weeks results as I’m into the next stone bracket 😁 I set my scales to weigh in st and lb then switch them back to lbs to track on here as I find the milestones of dropping into the next stone bracket really motivates me (plus it double checks the scales are accurate if the weights always match lol) not sure if it’s a uk thing as mainly see just lbs on here but it gives me mini targets to lose stone by stone lol
Sorry to read some of the challenges people are facing, sending you love and cwtches!
I love reading all your updates and seeing the cute pet pics, hoping to chat more this week, not sure if it’s the time difference or I’m just rubbish at keeping up with the chat lol
Hope everyone has a lush weekend!4 -

Exercise💦: 13 hours this week
[Nothing to report, except that I'm pleased that I'm down at least a pound. My weight has been jumping up and down, even though my eating and water intake has been good. I know I have to "up" my exercise, but even with the A.C. on I don't have that extra "get up and go" !!!😑 Trying to swallow more protein, it's a battle.]

It's Father's Day weekend here in the USA. Cookouts if the weather is favorable. Food pushers. Don't let any well-meaning saboteurs pull you off track. If you hear the weekend whispering "You can start over on Monday", shush that voice and take control. Honor your own intentions. It's not about being perfect; it's about staying true to the promises you made to yourself.

Happy Saturday! And hurray for pictures!

- 🟡 Walk at least 51 minutes (I subbed a second stair-stepping session)

- ⚪ Yoga (15+ min)

Hello everyone! Sorry that I’ve been missing, but Joe went to the hospital on Thursday afternoon and was admitted with a twisted colon. Fortunately, he didn’t have a major surgery, but the procedure was still intensive, and they had to knock him out. They thought it came back today, but he instead the scan showed that he still has an infectious Colitis. So the poor guy can’t eat or drink anything, and has to be on some heavy-duty antibiotics. It’s been exhausting to have to sit up at the hospital all day, and I hate coming home to sleep, but I can’t stay the night, or I would be no good to him at all. I’m praying he can go home tomorrow, but who knows? Keep us in your thoughts and prayers. 🙂
Those kitties!!!!😻😻😻

WEIGH IN UPDATE
WEIGH INS DUE TODAY FROM @digger61
Reminder To WEigh In Tomorrow To @19shmoo69 @sleepygirl79 @txcritter69 @laurelfit570 -
@TeresaW2024 Poor Joe that sounds horrible! I’m glad he was knocked out for the procedure. Praying this colitis goes away ASAP and he’s home soon.
@AustinRuadhain Good luck with the board meeting! We have ours next Saturday. You did great with your goals!
@micaroo4 Great advice from you on the weekend!
@lauren _989 Thank you for logging all the weigh ins for today! I appreciate you!
@trooworld Oh good I didn’t realize you had a lot of equipment at home. Hey do you use that pilates bar? I’m still thinking of getting it. It’s SO annoying to forget to start the workout on the watch! I forgot about the shrimp recipe you’ve had that before right? It sounds really good! Very smart to cut up the melons and enjoy them.
@baodell17724 I’m like you with protein it’s always been the hardest one for me to get. If you aren’t a big meat eater Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, eggs, and protein drinks help a lot.
@Cornanda I sure do! Funny the woman in charge of the rescue group was rubbing her nose thinking something was on it when she dropped them off. The orange one has an interesting nose too.
@alimalli86 Woohoo congrats on a lower stone bracket! Keeping up with the chat can be overwhelming, it helps to have a word document open while reading and if you want to comment you can do so as you go then copy and paste it. You’re welcome to just reply to things you want or tell us how you are too there’s no real rules aside of the weekly weigh-in. Do you have any pets?
@laurelfit57 Oh no hope the grandkids have a better day tomorrow! I hope the rain doesn’t make the walk too difficult for you and Ty. A hoop performance sounds fascinating good luck to your bonus daughter!
Hi friends! I’m running to meet a friend, thanks for all the sweet comments on the kitties!

@vegan4lyfe2012 - glad the info on the readers was helpful- Grammy from the beh beh must have been music to your ears!
@AustinRuadhain - your kitty is beautiful. I am on my second black dog and they have the same issue
@laurelfit57 - how was your busy Saturday? Nice loss!
@alimalli86 - Hooray for the next stone bracket!
@baodell17724 - 13 hours of exercise! Go you!
@trooworld - Sounds like you have had a fun and busy weekend. Good work cutting up the fruit and getting those workouts in. You had a "plateau-ish" week- hang in there- those are so frustrating. I'm about due for one and am dreading it. You are doing all the right things
@micaroo4 - thank you for reminding us all that that "you can start over Monday" voice never comes from a good place
@TeresaW2024 - I'm so sorry about Joe. I'm glad they were able to untwist things and now hopefully they can get the colitis under control quickly. I'm wishing you moments of calm and peace and rest during these hard days
@Katmary71 - keep us updated on your kitty adventures
Got together yesterday with the kids and went out for brunch- that was our early Father's Day celebration. Hate fighting the crowds at restaurants on the actual day. I made a healthy choice, but felt quite full all afternoon. DD has had some job interviews and put the apartment looking on hold for a bit. Wants to see if she will make anymore $$. We'll see if she invites me to go with her when the time comes or goes with the BF. Either way is fine with me. My eating challenges from the week are over and I did OK, although there may be a cumulative effect since there were several.
Happy Father's Day and have a good week!
Lisa

Good Morning Slims,
Congrats to everyone who saw the scale move down this week.
Happy Father's Day to all the dads!
@TeresaW2024 I am so sorry you and Joe are having such a hard time right now. Y'all are in my thoughts and prayers.
@baodell17724 congrats on your loss and getting in 13 hrs of exercise.
@vegan4lyfe2012 Yeah on hearing your Grammy. Music to one's ear.
@AustinRuadhain Your kitty is adorable. Great job staying accountable.
@trooworld I have a home gym as well and need to dust it off and start using it.
@Cornanda We are the same way. I will most likely cook at home tonight to avoid the craziness at the restaurants.
This was a bit of a busy week and had several things on the burner. It all went well as my Fitbit gave me my 30 lbs lost badge
this week. 15lbs of it has been with Wegovy.

A very happy Father's Day to all those dads out there!
@trooworld i'm so glad the baby shower was fun . I have the same trepidation when I am going to showers of any sort. I'm always wondering if I will know people and I'm not really a big game person. How did the fair go, it sounds like fun!
@Cornanda Saturday was super busy lol . My daughter-in-law's show wasn't until 830 so I didn't get home until after 11:30. I'm just not a late night person. That is really smart to go the day before Father's Day, everything can be so crazy that day. I'm hoping you like the boyfriend:-). Glad you're eating challenges are over for the week, when there are several in the week that does present a challenge for sure!
@txcritter69 yay you ! Congratulations on 30 pounds down, well done!!
@katmary71 I hope you share some more pictures of the kittens 🥰
Saturday was a super fun day, but so busy.
My daughter-in-law did an amazing performance on the hoop, it was a group number. Those women are so strong!
I am not used to being out late at night anymore.
I didn't sign up for my usual Sunday morning class at the gym, I thought getting sleep was more important :-). It was absolutely beautiful out this morning so I took the dogs for a super long walk. Ty is becoming much more manageable when we are going for walks, which is delightful! Last year our walks were very short because she was so crazy. Either next week or the following week I'm going to try taking the dogs into the river Valley. It's not the dogs that are my hold up, there is a long trail that I have to walk into the Rivervalley, or should I say coming out out of the river valley. For the first month it is always a killer! I think I mentioned that ice cream/slushy/sorbet maker that I bought last week. I absolutely love it, but it is to big and heavy! I am going to return it tomorrow. The thing that I love making the most was the sugar-free sorbet, found out I can easily make that in my food processor, big win!
my goal for next week is no eating after seven.
Hope everybody had a great weekend!
