Went to the Y last night and did the bike for 45 minutes and then went to an hour yoga class! I was pretty proud of myself!0 -
woohoo on all those 0's!!
taking off up the coast....stopping in wine country and in Monterey. Lots of time in the car and that means no exercising and lousy eating.
I'll see you all next week when I get back....sans son...
...but ready to get back on track to lose this summer weight I've gained! :drinker: 0 -
Like Sydney said- Nice job on the zeros guys! Also, Syd, have fun on your vacation! We expect a full rundown when you get back.
Robin- wonderful rain we are having- did you get a chance to walk in it? I did and it was refreshing to say the least!
Slowly getting back on track. I will weigh on Friday. I think I might be down a pound or so.0 -

yet another zero for me. 3 in a row.
I did walk in the rain. it is warm rain so it is really nice. I am making moves towards my recovery from the depression. I have a new BP med to take now and an appt to discuss the stress levels so I can get some time off. Tomorrow I fly to grandbabies and daughters. the best medicine in the world.
Have a great day all.0 -

I might have red wine tonight and every night, maybe I'll watch Scandal;)0 -
Monday-Thursday-0...wooh, not sure how long its been since that has happened. I ALMOST drank last night but cuddled up with some pb instead
Tonight, we are bottling a beer and I WILL be having wine!!! I have a bottle of white and red....not sure how it's gonna play out. Tomorrow, bright and early, we are going for a nice 5.8 mile walk, then off to a baby shower for my SIL. I shall be drinking wine and beer and eating my face off.
My scale was SOOOO nice to me this morning...it was back down to where I was when I left for vacation....I am sure its a fluke BUT I logged it anyway and will see what happens tomorrow morning :bigsmile:
HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0 -

Okay Goal was zeros until I get to the airport and I will acheive that. 4 zeros people. Pigs have sprouted wings.
Now the story. yesterday I got to the pharmacy to pick up my new BP meds. I wait in line 20 minutes while a cute little old man of 88 tells his life story to the pharm tech. then it is my turn ( I have a ton of stuff to do to get ready for my trip so I am impatient) They have no record of a prescription. Okay they call the doctor and I call the doctor. Seems they forgot to call it in. So now the pharmacy has the script. okay pharm tech sweetly asks me if I am going to wait? I said yes because I need the meds now since I will be traveling. I hate waiting. but it is usually only 10 minutes or so. Then she looks at me and sweetly says " gives 30 to 45 minutes" I came unglued. Yes my coping skills are the best right now. I stormed out. I have no BP meds.
This morning I hit a pot hole. Tire pressure alarm screams at me. Rain is coming down in sheets. I limp to gas station for Air. I have no cash. I dig thru the car and find $1 in various grungy pennies and such. fill my tire. It loses another 7 psi by the time I get to work. I have to get to the airport in a few hours. I am stressed.
Doug is going to take the tire in and try to get it fixed by the time I need to leave. (Sometimes it is good to work with your husband)
I am stressed out and so need to get to the airport so I can finally chill with a cocktail.
Thanks for listening.0 -

Oh my god Robin!!!!!!!!!!!! That sounds like the worst morning EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, but know....it will all be over soon and you will be with your beautiful grand babies!!! Travel safe!!!!!!0 -
Thursday=1 glass of red (I even measured 6 oz. so pathetic)
Sorry, Robin, I bet you can't wait for the airport cocktail-but maybe you should pick up that Rx?!0 -
Amy, I figure that I have only been on BP meds for 3 months and 2 of those months they haven't done what there supposed to. So another 3 days without them probably won't hurt.0

Friday-12oz of Malbec, 1/2 cyser, 1/2 pumpkin beer
Saturday-lots of wine and stuff at baby shower
Sunday-3 margaritas at movie tavern, then 1/2 bottle of white and about 6oz of red back at the house. I's sleepy :yawn:

Amy, I really wish I liked bloody mary drinks...they sound delicious, but I just do not like them! And the garlic-stuffed olives sound good, minus the olives. LOL0
