    @AliNouveau, Humid! At night it drops down into the 60s maybe Lo 70s. few degrees cooler for now anyway. This time of the year we're still in tornado season. It gets very humid and muggy at times and we have a lot of storms heavy rains and Thunder which can bring about tornadoes.

    Yikes tornadoes scare me. Hope you make it through without any

    I'm down about 50 with 20 to go. The HARD 20. Does that count?

    Where I grew up we had one just north of us, then just south. I remember the sky being an eerie green one day. Nature can be scary

    @AliNouveau, Yes, nature can be scary. Personally I like the sound of the rain, but the sound of thunder can be a little unnerving for some people at times.
    I'm starting to drift off. I think I'm going to call it a night. I have really enjoyed our chat, maybe we can do it again sometime. Hope you have a good night. Sweet dreams!! 😁

    Hello everyone! I am not posting much but thought I would gatecrash your conversations and say helllloooo. I have had a crappy few days of indulgence - gorgeous food and cheap gin - with my lovely partner. Right now my only motivation is to LOG EVERY DAMN THING and not buy and consume a big bag of Minstrels at 3pm. I am currently also celebrating a reduction of 7 whole minutes on a 22 mile bike time trial I did last night. It nearly killed me and my legs are sore today, but 7 minutes is not to be sneezed at! Hope you all have a great Wednesday :-)

    You’re not too far from me (I’m in Ontario) and we also have been enjoying some beautiful sunny days 😊. Time to go out and enjoy it! Yay!

    Good morning and nice to see you here 😊
    Can I ask what Minstrels are? I’m sure they must be delish whatever they are 😁

    They are little milk chocolate buttons with a hard shell. Galaxy Minstrels. They are my absolute downfall!

    It’s a great thing!!! 🚴🏻‍♀️We bought it ten days ago. I added that to my workout schedule. Actually using the bike most evenings. In the ten days since we’ve owned it I’ve lost another 3.2 lbs. I weigh what I did in my twenties!!! I’m so happy. I never thought I’d get back to the way I was but I knew it was possible. 🥂
    We love ours - had it about 6 months. My husband and I take turns every other morning and I do a strength and yoga workout off the app on my “off days”.
    Congrats on the weight - that is awesome.

    I used to love minstrels - the good news I can’t get my hands on them since we moved to North Carolina!

    For my Canadian neighbors, this came across my feed:
    It's now no longer illegal to challenge someone to a duel in Canada

    Hello everyone, I'll be turning 52 next month. I was never overweight, but recently when the scale tipped at 143 lbs, thought I should take action. That is the highest I have ever weighed when I was pregnant with my younger son. I always did intermittent fasting unknowingly, but even then weight slowly crept going up. Though I exercised weight didn't budge, then started OMAD (one meal a day) that's when I started to see results. This morning my scale showed 126.6 lbs, was glad to see this. Can't wait to get to my goal weight by my birthday.

    Good afternoon, everyone! I've been a little busy this week and haven't had a chance to chime in much. It's sunny and warm here in Oklahoma! I'm sure a lot of people would say it's hot - but it's not that bad for summer in Oklahoma (current temp is 90, with a heat index of 99). But at least it's sunny and not storming again...

    Speaking of which, @pandygirl19 - where in OK are you?
