Which smell do you prefer: fresh cut grass or fresh bread in the oven?
I prefer the bread - cut grass makes me sneeze 🤧

@jimboden3 How was your daughter's iron man? That is an amazing accomplishment!
@lauren_989 I think the bread vs. grass question depends on the season. I living in NH, which gets cold. In the spring and summer, there is nothing that smells better than fresh cut grass! In the fall and winter, I think I the smell might be disconcerting and I would pick the warm smell of baking bread every day!
Lauren, I hope it is okay if I do my weigh in early. I'm heading out to Minnisota for a music festival so I will not be home one Friday to do my regular weigh in. Here are my numbers as of today:
PW 184.0
CW: 183.9
Only a very small drop, but I'll take it. As long as I am trending down, I've decided that is enough.

Weigh-In Wednesday
@Megan _smartiepants1970
@lauren _989
PW: 180.4
CW: 179.8I'm basically right where I was in April. I've been pretty stagnant for the past couple of months. This is frustrating but I've also been maintaining without really any overall gain. It's 100% due to eating more, exercising less, and broken routines. I sounds like a broken record, but I'm working on getting back on track!

Made it to RI! @AnnaZimm70 where do you live in NH? We are going to Waterville Valley tomorrow, outside Lincoln.

We are on our way up to NH, so I am trying to catch up a bit here. I hope everyone is having a good week! I went for a jog this morning and played top golf yesterday. That was a lot of fun!

Weigh-in Day: Friday (July 18, 2025)
PW: 245.2
CW: 242.7This was a productive but vey long week at work (2026 planning). I'm typically up between 4:30 - 5:30 am every day (even weekends) but typically am exhausted and get to bed around 10 pm but I had 2 nights working to nearly midnight. That said, it's Friday and I'll probably take off a little early. Needless to say no exercise this week but I did watch what I ate so apparently that made enough of a difference. I think I'm going to do some walking and yardwork this weekend and get away from the *&%# work computer until Monday!

I am enjoying vacation with my parents, siblings, and nieces! Today we did a walk at the flume river and got to see some stunning views. Went to the pool this afternoon, then having dinner.

Today we walked around the town shops, went on a pedal boat, went up a ski lift and hiked some trails at the top, and went to the hot tub and pool. Busy day but a lot of fun. Only bad thing was I forgot to put sunscreen on before pedal boating and now I am a lobster! I have a ton of heat eminating off me 🫤

Do you prefer the beach or mountains?
I usually prefer the beach, but have really enjoyed vacations to the mountains.
