@cschmitz110515 - Love your puppy pic and his name. Congratulations on beating your time on the hill!

@PackerFanInGB - I love Maddie's name, she is adorable. I am so happy for you to have her.

@Bex953172 - Oh Casey is adorable too! Sorry to hear Marley was sick, hope today is going better for you.

@maryrobinson40 - That lullaby is beautiful. I must admit I teared up, thank you so much.

@mytime6630 - So happy to see you had a great day with the grandsons. I had to chuckle about the "amnesia" , where do they come up with these things huh?

@jeschepp - I have to reevaluate my goals and structure too. I seem to be struggling with my weight loss and having the willpower to keep at it this time more than I have the last times I've lost this weight.

@Faebert - Tired and unmotivated... this doesn't surprise me, you have been going strong for the last few weeks sick and under a lot of stress. It will probably take a bit to get your feet back under you 100%.

@slittlemeister - Glad you had a good trip. I have a pair of earrings from Cyprus that were brought back to me as a gift from my Godchildren's father when he went there with the military years ago. Glad to see you back

I don't have a lot to say today, I slept very poorly the last few nights. Not sure what is going on, I seem to fall asleep easily, but am waking up for what seems like hours in the night. Then having very strange dreams. I have a recurring theme in my dreams that I am with old co-workers/friends/family in these abandoned buildings that are all connected we are always trying to find the right direction to go. I'm sure there is some meaning in there somewhere but I've never looked it up. I wish they would stop.

I had a great day with the Grands yesterday as always. I was actually able to get some crafting done even with Michaela's "help". It took me twice as long to sew a little hat for my snowmen as she kept wanting to pull the needle through for me. Jonah crafted with paper and made himself a house with some people.

I have a couple more ideas for some extra wooden plaques I have at the house. I will have to try to get those done this week. Hubby is not doing his share and I'm very concerned I will run out of product at the craft fair next weekend. Hopefully he sees my panic this week and gets to work.

So Friday was our customer appreciation day at work. LM bought way way too much food so now there are baked goods all over the back area! 😣😑😫

It's taking all my willpower to not cave.

Hellooooooo! Lol….
My energy level is shot. I accomplished nothing today except
Eating fruit, and a chicken salad made with grapes, celery, chopped pecans, chopped onions, chopped bell pepper, sweet salad cubed pickles, and some type mayo. Green Tea to drink.
My mind wanted to do, but my body felt like I was steam rolled.
I prefer natural solutions for health, so I will be doing some reading. I've been moving, but not at the rate that I had been. Guess this is what they mean by "hitting a wall". Any way... Hope to get some energy back soon, in the meantime, I will be moving this body , I refuse to go backwards..Just can't go as hard as I have been, until I get more weight off my knee.. Some of the swelling is down from my knee...been doing the modified bicycle while lying on my back, and quad and abs also.

Thanks for listening💖

@cschmitz110515 - congrats on the race! You’re smashing it!

@slittlemeister - welcome back!

@Bex953172 - messy Casey is so cute!

I had an ok day yesterday. Back to my workout which felt brilliant! And very productive at work. Some big boyfriend trouble though. And felt sad last night so ate too much sugary stuff. I’m cross with myself. Because I know logically that it doesn’t help anything. But I just get that ‘screw it, I don’t care’ rebellious mentality. And that is very difficult to overcome in the heat of the moment.

Not going to beat myself up. New day today. Hugs to you all x

Back again after I was locked out of my account. I tried to reset my password before the weekend - but the forgot my password link was not coming thru. Turns out it comes from Under Armor, not MFP so I missed it until Monday when I figured it out. I celebrated with food all weekend, didnt log, and dont regret one bit of it! My celebrations carried over into yesterday when my mom wanted to have a "last meal" before she starts eating better again. It's funny - shes naturally thin - but always has do to a "last meal" before she starts eating healthy again but I never notice that shes NOT eating healthy or gaining weight. Anyway back at it today - had my smoothie, fish oil and took my meds already - it's easier for me to have a good day when I start out positive and hitting my goals.
