FIL can go home when he can walk with a cane. (MIL has emphysema and can't help him much, they are 40 miles from our house, so we can't go help a lot either.) That may be today, but if I were betting, I'd say tomorrow. He's still in a lot of pain and disoriented by it, but doesn't want to take narcotics.
My kids will be out of school a week from today. I just have to get through the end of the year stuff and then I'm done. I can do this.
For you lovely folks who want less Chevy days - send them my way. I need to get a few more of those in to stay at my maintenance range. I've dropped out of it again, but can't find time to eat after work with running to the hospital and end of year events. I ate a huge (for me) breakfast this morning, hoping that will help.0 -

Nearly fell in a cereal bag and had to eat my way out....WHY does cereal taste SOOOO good at the end of the day?
Gardening and walking cured the numbers. Boy do I miss my fitbit! :frown:
Chevy---stole your idea with the month chart--liking that I see that I am in the GREEN for the month! Also seeing why the scale hadn't been budging....if it were not for fasting days I would be RED, RED, RED for the month. Good to see the big picture!:noway:0 -

So tired tonight. Driven 250 miles today to see my mum in her Nursing Home. Not an easy visit - she thought I'd come to take her home - to her 'mummy and daddy's', but mixing in references to my Dad who died 35 years ago - sad. Also she's beginning to lose language - but still sometimes on the edge of knowing that she can't find or has perhaps used the wrong word.
Very little exercise today - unless you count the 8 + miles I did on the exercise bike when I got home - I'd have preferred a walk in a nice park!!0 -

So tracking the "big picture' has helped me realize WHY the scale is not budging. I have been so worried about limiting my "red' days that when I see I am going to go RED...I tend to do it big. The numbers are ugly enough that it takes forever to fix it! (Us short girls don't have much wiggle room on the calorie front:ohwell: ..) Anyway, if this means that I have to set my green goal much lower---that has got to be my game plan! Between this and keeping up with the IF plan, I think I can FINALLY make the stupid scale submit to my desire for new happy #####s!!!!:explode:0 -

This week has been a killer, but FIL is home, school is almost over, and I have learned that whether or not I like it, I've got to eat a larger breakfast to get closer to my goal. Or do what I just did and eat a second breakfast of egg whites, cheese and toast after dinner.
K80 - glad you saw your mom, I know that must be really hard.
Chevy - traveling is hard, but I know you will work to achieve balance for the month and I believe you can do it.
Moderators - thanks for all your hard work0 -

Did a 5K with the newest pup (it appears of our 2 foster dogs, the youngest is going to be a permanent fixture in our family). He could have gone SOOO much farther but mostly wanted to go FASTER.....zoooooooom! (This would be the same dog that is so fast he's caught 2 squirrels in the past month.)
@Melissa Phipps---might have been a bad week, but you did stellar!!!!
@Jbharwood---glad I didn't mess things up in the absence of others. :happy: And thanks! It took a brave moment to put my real face up there. :blushing:
@fionauu---I think you should go with the smaller doses of exercise so you can not overdo it! But you are doing awesome!0 -

It helps that thanks to work overload, I don´t have much time for snacking, just 3 meals a day and some fruit in between. A trampolining! That helps a lot, I´m still sore from yesterday.0 -
