NSV: went for my 6 month follow up at my doc's today. BP: 108/70. Weight (at 4:45 in the afternoon) 156.4. BMI 24.49. Doc says I am at a phenomenal weight for me. :blushing: The whole world can tell you you look great, but when the person who believed me when I said I'd lost range of motion in my hips & treated my arthritis, MRIs my head every ten years because my mom died of an aneurysm, and wouldn't give up until she had a diagnosis for my autoimmune disease says, "You're phenomenal," it means a lot :bigsmile:0 -

I took my household water glass and figured out that it held 1.5 cups. Then I measured the bottled water that I use for walking and that was 2 cups.
I actually had 8 cups of water before lunch!0 -

@Chevy---SO GOOD to have you back!!!!! I often wondered if your ears burned with every mention of a Chevy style-green day. :laugh: :laugh: I know I did my part to keep your memory alive in the group and was often thankful for your brilliant suggestion of the 99 calorie range!!!! You saved MANY a day for me! :bigsmile:
I was really aiming for a "super low" calorie day today---had crockpot oatmeal for breakfast and lunch. But by dinner I returned to a more "normal" sized meal and a small treat. Sensible but not quite as much "recovery" gained from yesterday as I would have hoped.
Thanks to all who encouraged me after my EPIC FAIL day yesterday:sad: . That's just why I continue to hang out with this group!

I am giving myself the benefit of the doubt today because I was busy all day and then did a 55 minute workout. My problem is all my meals were eaten out so I have no real idea of quantities, but it was a solid attempt to be green so I'm giving myself the benefit of the doubt.0 -

Well, I was doing good all day until dinner time. Had an intense argument which rarely happens, but every one has a spat with their loved ones once in a while. Anyway, after making up, oy yoy yoy. I didn't feel like eating the dinner I had made so I starting eating peanut butter instead to get my minimum cals to be healthy. Well, I felt super sad so I started drinking. After happy alcohol kicked in, then I ate semi bad food until quite frankly passing out.
Not my best day for sure, but my good behavior previously in the day saved me.0 -

How much easier it is to be active now the snow's (almost) gone! My 9 year old is full of spring fever too so we've been out bike riding and now she's got jump rope fever! I've been joining her instead of "mum's a bit tired" or "I'll just watch today". WOW there's a workout. Here I go.... "Strawberry shortcake sugar on top, who's your boyfriend I forgot? A... B... C... D...." My daughter thinks it's so funny that I go around the alphabet over and over without stopping: "You don't have a boyfriend mum!" Too true. 0 -

Yesterday was another GREAT day!! Today however, will be a challenge. Tonight is the annual "Ladies Go Wild" night for the Ladies Axillary. Its a comedy night at a very popular Italian Restaurant. It will be a limited menu and I dont know what is on it. I have cut back on just about EVERYTHING today, (no feta, no pistachios, no afternoon snack) in an effort to make more calorie room for dinner tonight. I am pushing back my breakfast until later in the day and that might help me to drop another snack. I am hitting my water hard. As it stands now, I have 940 cals for dinner (didnt get a work out in this morning :ohwell: ) I wont eat the bread, and I am unwilling to drop the $$ for alcohol. I will try and make the best choice possible for dinner....
And then... tomorrow I have a wedding...:sad:0 -

@K80flec - You have kept a great thing going commenting... it is a neat thing here!
@melissa - Great to meet you too!
All the credit goes to Kawookie however for her unselfish effort
@scherzie - Great job
@R_Queenie - Thanks so much - That 99 calorie thing was in reaction to MFP just switching from "You are great" to "You are rotten" with one calorie. I love the way fitbit does it a lot better!
Super smart way to recover - Oatmeal is a "go to food"!
@rfstepp29 - This is a real supportive place - keep up the great work!
@michellenel - That Green machine is a machine!
@kawookie - You have captured the "spirit" - We all know when "green is green" - (Dig your new Avatar!)
@Fionauu - Yes.. I too am a "water chugger"
@iwanttobe - Great story! :-)
@ktaylormusic - Isn't it great when we can get back having fun with our kids!

@ktaylormusic- What a touching moment to have with your daughter. I'm sure it means the world to her that you can play with her. Jumping rope is tough!
@twijourney- rest days are killer, they really take some will power and planning to stay green for me.
@funkygranolat- sounds like you have planned ahead for tonight's dinner as much as possible. Have a great time and I'm sure you'll do fine!
