Did Jari love’s Extra Ripped DVD then used the elliptical for an hour doing an inline workout. The plan for tomorrow is to do 10MS Tone Trouble Zones DVD
After exercise laid out by the pool and then went to friend’s of ours house.
M – I’m so happy you got into a tutorial
Michele who is trying to get caught up2 -
There were four new students in my line dance class this morning along with several who were returning after weeks or months. It was fun and challenging with lots of laughter. I wanted to spend the afternoon relaxing but I've put off vacuuming for so long that I had to get it done. Jake used to do the vacuuming but now his health won't let him, so it's my job. He helped by comforting the dogs who are always terrified by the vacuum. The cat always hides under the bed. Another comment about counting steps and step counters. I have two step counters that are with me all the time. I carry my Omron step counter in my pocket all day and it's the one I use to keep track of my steps and let me know when I've gotten to 10,000 steps. My phone has a step counter and I usually have it in my pocket but sometimes it's on the table plugged in so it doesn't count all my steps. I participate in a step challenge through an app on my phone. Most days, the number of steps on the two step counters are way different from each other. The phone seems to be more sensitive to the steps I take while dancing so even though it's not with me for short periods of the day, it often has a higher number than the pedometer that's in my pocket all the time. Right now there's a difference of more than 4,000 steps between the two.

Busy week. The annual Consecration Service that I am in charge of was over last night. That’s a huge relief to have finished. I still have to prepare two lessons for my online class I’m teaching. I should have that done tomorrow, I hope.
I updated my H&R Block software and my tax return was finally accepted. I changed NOtHING, so my thoughts that it was a software glitch proved true.
Our new trainer at the gym is kicking our butts. I’m enjoying the challenge,but I’ve dropped back on my walking. I just can’t do both together with all my other projects. Maybe when the weather warms up some.6 -
Barbie,
my struggles with step counters—
I have such a terrible time with step counters, I can’t wear one on my wrist because they are so inaccurate. It might still be something about me, but I’m Polish, and I talk with my hands so much they count it as steps. I usually wear it on my ankle. Right now that one has a broken strap. I have some that I can wear at my waist, but if they’re too sensitive they over count. I quit using the one in my phone because I don’t keep my phone on me in the house.
Trying to get the DVD player to work, but all of those different remote got me so crazy, I gave up. Who needs 4 different remotes to get the thing going? Like they say, sometimes more is not better, it’s just more.
Have a good evening, all.

Pip! im so happy you’ve turned the corner! I still contend that dealing with your demise would have been a great deal more expensive than a doctor bill. We have all these reasonable Urgent Care clinics here. They coordinate with insurance if you have it and are reasonable if you ask them to keep testing to a minimum.
Lanette, i thoughtfor sure I was in for it on my way into work this afternoon. Snow and freezing rain was going all the way from Issaquah to work in Redmond - about 20 miles. Thank heaven it quit and I came home in drizzle.
I am stuck at 207. I can’t understand how this is possible at 750 or less carefully measured calories per day. I HAVE come up a bit short on fluids lately, but have yet to come up with a hot drink that is good without sweetener. Broth has calories, coffee has caffeine - a no-no - same for tea. And cold drinks are anathema right now. I try to down enough water, but feel nauseated after the first 20-30 ounces. I’ve started eating a lot of soups for that reason. My dietician appointment is next week. I’ll work on it.
Sharon, nearly frozen today Near Seattle6 -
Shannon in Ontario Canada: Welcome to a great group!
RV Rita: I also have higher fat and lower carb diet than many. Yesterday I had 32% protein, 33%fat & 36% carbs. That is close to perfect for me. Today I had quite a few more carbs than I usually like. (I ate 2 big peanut butter cookies.)
M in OZ and Trucker: There are Wah-hoo! and Woo-hoo!, which are both cheers. The more exclamation points the better. In my experience, Woo can be positive or negative, depending on context. :flowerforyou:
Machka: Regarding tutorials—can you make arrangements to arrive at work early or stay late once a semester so that you can register and sign up for classes a bit earlier? :huh:
Barbie: Your restaurant ordering strategy is excellent. We are both low carb eaters and regularly dine at a Chinese restaurant where they will serve our orders without rice, at our request. DH is on a restricted FODMAP diet and they meet his dietary needs very well.
Pip: I’m glad to hear that things seem to be getting better for you. I like to avoid hospitals as much as possible.
Beth: It sounds like you’re on a plateau. Keep on doing the right things and the weight will eventually drop. :flowerforyou:
Sue and Lanette: I am amazed at the differences in our weather. We eventually had a trace of snow but it didn’t last a whole day. It is amazing how different our weather has been compared to yours this year. :ohwell:
Sharon: I’d like to suggest a hot drink that is 0 calories and caffeine free—Celestial Seasonings has several tea possibilities. My personal favorite is Peppermint but I also like Sleepytime. :yawn: (It doesn't really make me sleepy.)
The water leak is fixed! We have running water again!!! The leaking part was found and replaced. We need to make an appointment to talk things over with the city water department and figure out how to pay for the leaked bazillion gallons water. (I’m a person who occasionally exaggerates. It was probably somewhat less than a bazillion gallons of water but the bill has $$$$ with lots of zeros behind them.)
I’m going to a state-wide Oregon Equestrian Trails meeting tomorrow with a couple of friends. The goal of this organization is to provide people safe places to ride horses on public land. It will be the first time I’ve ever attended, so I’m not sure what to expect.

Slowly catching up but still about 3 pages behind.
Need to stop reading now as time is getting on. Need to get my exercise in
(before I make an excuse and say it is too late, need to get on with the housework)
Heather what is the book called that you are reading about end of life? Think I need to be more prepared for my dad. I hope you manage to get to see your cancer friend and glad that you have support from your other friends via the WhatsApp group.
Pip hope you have gone to see your GP by now, sounds like we are all a little concerned.
Michele I've said it many times, but you amaze me with your energy, you never seem to stop.
Better get on, Iots to do. I have my grandson staying over, need to get him up and breakfasted before we can go to the shops.
Take care, love to everyone and hugs to those in need

Machka: Regarding tutorials—can you make arrangements to arrive at work early or stay late once a semester so that you can register and sign up for classes a bit earlier? :huh:
Sure ... if I knew they were opening the tutorials when they did.
Most of the time, they tell us that the tutorials will open at 8am on the Tuesday of the week before classes start. 8am, I'm there, waiting. The system opens ... and immediately crashes. About 15 minutes later we get an email saying that they hope the system will be up again at 10am. I've got to be at work at 10am, so I bring my laptop into work and fire it up at 10am. The system opens ... and immediately crashes. About 15 minutes later we get an email saying they hope the system will be up again at 2pm. Finally at some point on Wednesday afternoon the system is up long enough for us to register.
Last year I was on holiday when I was signing up for the Semester 1 class, and was sitting at train stations and rest stops when we were cycling trying to get on.
This year they surprised me with an email saying they wouldn't open the registration until Tuesday of the week of classes (next week). And then, with no warning at all, they opened the registration on Thursday ... 5 days early!! The tutorials opened and filled immediately. So we were told that they'd open more first thing on Friday ... but they didn't open till 2 pm.
It's chaos!

Barbie: Re food: I keep frozen veg/meat in the freezer, and I freeze leftovers for lunches. Waste not! Want not! 😂 We just had a some of our Christmas turkey and stuffing + fresh veg on Thursday when my daughter was here. I had enough turkey left over to make sandwiches for yesterday. We garden organically so compost most of our vegetable waste. Also, our local council composts all food waste as well, so very little goes into landfill from our house.
Machka: What a fiasco! Glad you managed to get a place in the end.
Pip: Good to see you well on the mend.
Kayla: Good to know that the leak is fixed. Gird your 'lions' for the contest with the water Board!

Viv - The book is by Kathryn Mannix, called WITH THE END IN MIND, how to live and die well.
I have it on my Kindle. Very good. She is a palliative care doctor.
Today we are gearing up for the sleepover.
Just got to sort out this panic button. Bought far too much food. Beds all sorted, though I've asked my son to bring Max's bedding. Bea will be next door to us in the queen size bed with a jungle single duvet. I've removed the phone from the bedside table!
I'm a bit nervous about it, but happy to be of service.
For those who don't know the history, my son had a crisis with alcohol January last year, which meant he nearly lost his job. It had been building up for a long time. He gave up alcohol completely and set about getting his mental and physical health on track. He was not well, with arthritis, psoriasis, etc etc. His wife was an enthusiastic runner, so he decided to train for the Brighton marathon this April. He is not built like a runner and has endless joint problems, foot problems etc etc. But he persevered. Lots of set backs with injuries. But, he is still alcohol free, he has lost weight, his skin has cleared up and he looks WELL. Tomorrow he is running the HALF marathon with his wife. Achilles problems have dogged the last few weeks, but he is good to go.
So, we are having the kids to stay the night and taking them down to the seafront to cheer their parents on. They will be about two thirds round by then. My DDIL is quite a bit faster than my son.
I'm hoping all goes well for him. It's been a triumph to get to this stage.
I will go for my customary 5k this pm. The sky is completely blue.

good morning ladies~
I am up and having water.. trying to fast until 9 am, I have to do something... I am eating, but I guess not enough calories, and not enough fat.. so my body is just holding onto the weight,, which I am none to happy about..working 7:30-1 today.. then will pick up a few groceries.. and come home and clean4 -
Sharon near Seattle - it's a really typical path for a bariatric surgery patient! I was at the exact same place where you are at very near the same stage, and ended up GAINING two pounds. It's because it's so hard to get enough calories in your system during the months right after the surgery. Your body genuinely believes you're starving to death, or at a minimum in a famine. It is holding onto every calorie you eat, literally fine-tuning your system to take advantage of every morsel. If you took measurements before, now's the time to make that comparison, as your body is also pulling nutrition from your fat cells to hang onto the weight, so your measurements will drop. It will pass, but it's horribly frustrating at the time, especially after dropping weight so easily for weeks. Most soups are loaded with sodium, unless you're making them yourself, so you may be holding onto a lot of water as well. Hang in there, you're doing great!
A little advice - if you're not eating much dairy, make sure to take your calcium supplements, as your brain needs calcium and protein to operate, and will pull protein from your muscles and calcium from your bones to make sure it gets what it needs to operate. It's a quick path to osteoporosis-and your heart is a muscle, and can be damaged in the process, as well. So make sure you're pushing protein.
On the hydration side, there are tons of non-caffeinated teas and decaf coffee to up your liquid intake. I still struggle (14 years later) to drink plain water, (possibly because the specific gravity of water is high, they're not sure - but it always feels like a punch in my gut). By heating it, and adulterating with tea, coffee, or other drink mixes, you are changing how dense water feels, and your body tolerates it better. I literally went for years surviving on tea and coffee, without drinking plain water AT ALL. It's why I always laugh when people say "You can't count tea and coffee for your water intake." Well, your body does, and it will love you for it. While I can sip on tepid water, slugging down more than a few ounces of cold water still hurts. However, I drink iced tea all day long. I never had trouble with the "don't drink while you're eating or for a half hour afterward," as it was and is a quick path to nausea and pain for me.
(For those who haven't been through the surgery, drinking while you eat actually keeps you from knowing when you're full, as the liquid mixes with the food you eat in your stomach and it gets through the system quicker. If you refrain from drinking during meals, you'll find you get that sensation of being full more quickly, and you feel full longer, so it can actually help you, too.)
Oh, and one warning - most of the drink mixes that you squirt or stir into water have citric acid, which is not good for your new stomach, either, and in fact, caused me enormous pain until I started reading labels.
Thus endeth the bariatric surgery session for the day. While we're all different, there are usually a number of commonalities.

Kathy in KY – I hear ya about the remotes. With me I just want an on/off switch. With vince you have to turn this on one remote, then this on another, etc etc. But that’s just me.
Katla – I always say “woo hoo” here so that people know that I’m excited for them. I know that there’s something about the “woo hoo” on here and I don’t want anyone to think that I’m not happy for them. So I write it here and don’t ever use that button. As a matter of fact, I very seldom use any of the buttons on the bottom. So glad to hear the water leak is fixed.
Irish Terry – sometimes I make so much food for Christmas that I freeze it and Vince is having left-over Christmas dinner in April! That’s not unusual at all.
Going to go to the clubhouse to exercise now.
Michele in the FL unfortunately not for long enough

Has anyone seen the cartoon "Dustin" today? the father is in the gym and is looking at the sign that says "Please limit time on cardio machines to 30 minutes. He looks at the trainer and says "that's per week, right?"
I just thought that was cute.
Michele who plans to lay by the pool today4 -
On a whole other subject, that of food waste - buying a vacuum bag machine has more than paid for itself over the years, and in fact we're on our second one, as we wore the first one completely out. So, we can buy meat in bulk to save money, and as someone else said, package it up in serving sizes that make more sense for us. My husband has also gotten into canning food of late, right now more pickling than canning, but the principles are often the same.
However, separating food into smaller serving sizes has not been possible with our 25-year-old son living with us, as we're cooking a lot more to begin with. He leaves in three weeks, and we fully expect our food bill to drop somewhere on the order of $300 a month. Love that boy, but he's not cheap.
The vacuum bagger is also useful for dry leftovers, if not for wet, so we use it for that. And, when my husband's cooking for just the two of us, he often cooks enough for two meals deliberately, and we freeze the leftovers, or he takes them to work the next few days. We very, very seldom throw any food away.
Still making good progress with the knee - was able to step up with the new knee onto a ten-inch step yesterday, and repeat 15 times. Paid for it later, but it's progress!
The weather here didn't get anywhere near as bad as they expected last night, and the wind and tornado weather appears to be skimming to the south and east of us, so we're fine up here on our little mountain. A possible thunderstorm is due to wander through around 9 or 10 a.m., and then by this afternoon, we're supposed to be sunny and 60 degrees. Looking forward to some sunshine.
Love y'all,

Good morning all! Happy Saturday! Even though I work them, I still like the weekends. A little more relaxed with the bigger kids here (less planning for me). My little kids (the three and four year olds) talk about the "S" days (Saturdays and Sundays) and how they like them; because they get to stay home with mama and daddy. lol I have Jonah here with me today (1:30-9:30). Since he is arriving early today, I think I will have his mom leave his car seat, so that I can take him downtown for the Frozen In Time event put on by the local businesses. Each year, they decorate their shop windows and hire live mannequins to pose. The theme this year is The Movies. Each shop has chosen a scene from a movie to recreate in their window. Should be fun!
Beth, Terri, Barbie and others talking of food/food waste- I feel fortunate that I have a daycare with many mouths to feed. I buy a lot of produce/grocery and almost nothing goes to waste. It took a few years to really get the rhythm of using everything. Many days I make meals big enough for a family meal and also a daycare meal. When things start to get overripe they either get cooked/baked; sometimes frozen for later use, pureed and frozen, or used immediately. I have learned to add things to sauces, smoothies, soups to use them up. Something I would like to begin doing is making my own vegetable and bone broths. It has just dawned on me that I can freeze the vegetable scraps and bones until I have time and enough scraps to make the broth.
Katla- I am a coffee drinker in the morning; but I switch to tea in the afternoon and evening (I will usually have a cup about 2pm and again before bed). My favorite flavors are Yogi Tea's Egyptian Licorice, Celestial Seasonings Peppermint, and Sleepytime. I am currently finishing a box of Tulsi Spiced Berry Tea (Immune System Support). I bought it for my hubs, but he isn't drinking it. I am not fond of berry/fruit flavored hot drinks, but I can handle one cup of it. Maybe it is helping me keep my immune system strong. lol
Pip- Glad you are feeling better! Stay healthy! Don't overdo it!
Heather- I think you will have a fun sleep over with the kids! Your panic button should be easy to disconnect. Once you get the cover plate off, you should be able to disconnect one wire (tape it off with electrical tape) to break the circuit. Replace the cover plate so the kids don't monkey with it. I am sure you (and your DH) already know this and have completed the job; you are hours ahead of me. I will be here, rooting for you DIL and your son (especially your son) to complete their race. What a wonderful way for him to celebrate a year of making better choices!
Daughter Lauren called me yesterday to tell me that I most likely wouldn't hear from them this weekend. Spur of the moment, they decided to go to San Antonio for the weekend to celebrate Jaime's (her husband) birthday! They rented a house from airbnb, and were able to bring Joaquin AND the dog! There are a couple of well known restaurants they want to try and they will also visit with a cousin (my niece) and her family who live down there! My niece has two children ages 5 and 3. I am sure Joaquin will have a lot of fun with them.
Well, I better pull myself away from the computer and my coffee and slap some make up on my face and get out for groceries and errands. I have three weeks until I have some time off (six days!). Counting down! lol ttfn xoxoxo KJ (Kelly)7 -
I'm at work and just had tea ,bacon and scrambled eggs..those only once In awhile because they just dont sit right in my tummy..2

Heather rooting for your son today and you too! You will surely have fun with your lovely grands. And you will also have fun returning them!!
Kelly your food strategy to avoid waste sound great. I often freeze bones for broth, but now I want to freeze veggie scraps for broth as well.
Lisa I had no idea about water Intake after bari. surgery. Sounds like you are healing well from the knee replacement. WTG
NYKAREN—back in the USA!3 -
Heather UK: Enjoy your time with the grandkids. Sounds like your weather is much brighter than ours is today. We have cloud cover and showers so far. Hoping for it to break later on.
Just on my way out to our local shops for a roast and the daily papers. Hubs is off birdwatching withnone of his Mates so I have been pleasing myself this morning. After my workouts I watched a few crochet video so on YouTube. I will work on sorting my wool stash when I get back from the shops.

Good morning and HAPPY Saturday. Actually the sun is shining so it makes me happy.
Lisa- thanks for the info on drinking liquids while eating. I never knew it made you not know when you are full. I always heard you should drink a little while eating to help digestion.
This month I have been working on my sleep and so far am sleeping much better. Maybe because all of my big commitments are over and I’m not worrying about them.
Enjoy the day everyone.

Happy Saturday Ladies!
Looks like the weatherman is backing off the big snow prediction for Monday.... now just morning snow turning to rain. I am hoping so because had a monthly lunch scheduled with my 2 Master Gardener GF's. It's hard getting us all scheduled for a good day. The snow we had yesterday afternoon is a bit melted but the ground and street are still white. And all frozen over this morning, so no walking.
Katla - glad you got your water line fixed. Many water systems have a forgiveness for breaks like that - they simply give the customers an average of some type or bill the amount from the same period from last year. We are so lucky, the water line broke on our side of the meter several years ago and caused a huge gush of water down the street! The water tech arrived quickly and dug out the lines around the meter. The problem was caused by tree roots. He went ahead and fixed it for us since he had it dug out and the huge bill was forgiven. Our system will forgive a large bill due to breaks once a year. So it won't hurt to see if the City would do the same. You might be able to find a copy of their policy online in their county code under Utilities.
Beth - too bad your gas company doesn't have a similar forgiveness. Things do happen! Glad the leak was caught w/o creating any damage. Whew.
Rita - Beth.... when you are doing your IF, do you allow yourself coffee or beverages with milk/cream outside that window? I remember when Rye (I miss her!) was doing IF - very successfully and I think she was doing 16/8- and said ideas on that varied. I have bit putting a bit of milk in my coffee lately just to keep it buffered in my tummy which doesn't like it if I overdo plain coffee, but then I often won't eat solid food until 10 or later and try to cut off by 5.
Machka - I was thrilled to see that photo of you and your DH! Glad you were able to get your course squared away. How long did you say you were going to PT for your hip?
I must have slept wrong on my left shoulder, very painful and was up at 4 this morning. When the weather gets more reliable around here I need to schedule a session for medical massage and really have that shoulder worked on. I can do some myself but cannot reach around to hit all the acupressure points.
Karen in NY - thank you for travelogue! Genoa is now on my bucket list, lol. Really enjoyed the photos.
We had a new over the range microwave installed on Wednesday - our "old" one was less than 2 years old, an expensive GE from Sears. Within the first year something went wrong and it kept tripping the circuit breaker. After weeks of waiting for the Sears repairman to get out here, the repair was made. Well, it started doing it again last week.... new part was less than a year old. So we decided to just buy a new one - inexpensive Frigidaire - before this one burned down the house. Love buying something from the mom and pop appliance store. While they were still here, they fixed my new Speed Queen dryer which was working fine but making a "chirping" sound. The repairman said the back roller was over-lubricated at the factory or something and seems to be chirp free now.
OK I better get busy. Have a good day!

KJ - We have just done it, after 4 months here! I Googled it and basically you have to set it off, remove the key and not reset it. So DH set it off and I used the alarm code. and the little window is red and the button is depressed. Phew.
It is on the wall right next to where Max is going to sleep.
The next job I have been putting off is to reset the programme on the thermostat for the central heating. DH is not at all technical and neither of my sons has been helpful, so it's down to me. I hate technology. But I understand it better than DH. Unfortunately I haven't plucked up the courage to reprogramme yet.
After that I still have to get to use my new laptop, now 18 months since I bought it.
We hardly waste any food at all. The only thing I throw away is scraps of bread. If a loaf goes stale I cut it into croutons and dry them in the oven to use in soup. I freeze the croutons.
I've not been writing since I got sick with my cough. Now I'm reading books about how to make time for writing. :laugh: One way to put things off!
My run was magic today. DH came with me at a brisk walk. Some people had the beach huts open. Cafés on the beach all full. All the traffic cones are put out for the half marathon. Can't believe it is February.

Weather not too bad here on NW. 1 hour exercise this am nowwatching TV with DH Six Nations rugby France v Scotland.
HEATHER wishing good luck for your son and dil. Just enjoy the grands.
I had a bit of a clear out yesterday sewing patterns, zips etc put them on Freecycle and a lady picked them up. She was using them for a Scout group ?? mind you think they have girls as well now. Not that I think boys shouldn't see or knit etc.
Have a great Saturday, France now leading 10 to 0

Katla wishing you good luck in getting water bill issue fixed. Sorry it is a problem in the first place. I am surprised the water company did not catch the water leak. I take that back. It does seem more and more the burden of someone else's mistakes seem to fall on our shoulders to see things get corrected. If you feel the person helping you is not getting the problem addressed I would either call back or ask to speak to a manager.
Just read Lanette's advice and think that is spot on...
When son ordered blinds for his new house one valence was not cut correctly. He has tried to get it corrected twice. Someone whose job it was either did not read the numbers right, someone put the number in wrong, or they just plain didn't care and cut it wrong. Frustrating. He is being persistent and it will get fixed, but it was an extra trip to the store and extra time. The saving grave is these were were not custom window treatments so the price of them was a fraction of custom.
When son and I talked about it we concluded that half the battle is finding the right person to help you with the problem.
I said unfortunately I think there is more and more of these kind of problems. I think it is due to the lack of paying attention to the task at hand. I was in a third grade last week, and they took a test where they had to add three digit numbers. The number of mistakes that were made just because they didn't pay attention to lining up numbers or forgetting to bring a number down was too many. These were mistakes that I believe students could be taught to catch.
When I work with student I have said everyone makes mistakes. This is true. I think I will now say everyone makes mistakes now lets work together to see how to fix it. Another is lets focus now so we make less mistakes in the first place, because it takes less time and energy to fix it when it done correctly the first time. Similar to the saying measure twice cut once.
I do make an effort when I do see students keeping their focus. Margaret
