It's been an emotional day today. I got up and noticed that my 19 year old cat did not urinate last night. She uses puppy pads and they were bone dry. So I rushed her to the vet. Her bladder had pushed through a hernia. She had to have emergency surgery and they only gave her a 5 - 10% chance at survival. However, she actually made it!! She's still critical but if she makes it through the night she should survive.
As if the above wasn't upsetting enough the doctor hinted that this was caused by some trauma...like someone had abused little Carly. I can 100% guarantee that no one has ever laid a fingertip on her. I don't have kids so my cats are like my kids.
Soooo it has been tough to get my walking in all week. I've been able to get it done except for today. I did get over a couple of miles in....given I've been an emotional wreck all day I'm ok with that.
So sorry to hear about your Carly. It’s very hard when our fur babies are sick. I had to put down my dog right before Christmas. It was one of the hardest things I had to do. (He was only 8 but had stomach cancer). I feel for you my friend.1 -
So I’m going on vacation and leaving very early tomorrow morning. I will weigh in today if that’s ok.
We are going to an all inclusive resort. That’s kinda why this week I haven’t really been logging my food or worrying about things. When I get back I will start fresh. Back to the grind when we return. My husband and I actually were saying how we need to get back to the challenge we started. Funny how we got a total of 7 people to do the challenge and because I stopped everyone else did too. Just because It was too much for me while the whole thing with my dad was going on didn’t mean everyone else had to stop. Lol. But I look forward to starting up again when we come back.
Anyway I’ll post my weigh in later. Hope everyone had a wonderful week.0 -

Today I felt irritable. I know it's probably because I didn't exercise. I wanted today to be a Rest Day. Back to exercising tomorrow. My mood should change when I get those endorphins going again.
Hope today is better0 -

@AB0215 --Ashley I noticed on the spreadsheet that my weight has not been posted. Just in case you missed it I am reposting. Thanks
@Gadgetgirl259 Nope, didn't miss it, just been short on time. I work 2 jobs and workout 2+ hours a day, this week the struggle has been real and next week will be harder as one of my job increased my hours.
And to add insult to injury, someone decided to drive their car into my husband's truck, so I've been dealing with that on top of everything else.1 -

I’m happy with my results. Like I said it’s been tough. And knowing I was leaving on vacation I figured I’d just get back at it when I come back.
Don’t know if I’ll get on this week. Have a wonderful week all.1 -
Sorry I will be away on vacation and won't be able to post this week's lost until Tuesday morning. Enjoying time with family.1

Struggling. The bod is telling me it doesn’t like what I’m putting into it. My joints are aching. All my fault. I have yet to have someone hold me down and stuff chips in my face.
Barely hanging on. Need to get my head back in the game.2 -

@CindyJNC1963 I'm sorry about your Carly, I'd be traumatized! I really hope she makes it.

Thanks everyone for your kind words. My sweet Carly crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 12:30am this morning. I did get to go see her last night before she passed. Every night she would crawl up in my lap and rub her face all over my face before she laid down to nap. I will miss that.

So sorry. You had her for a long time. That's a testament to how good a fur-mom you are. I'm sure you have her lots of love over the years. Hugs. 😿1 -

@Gadgetgirl259 Everytime someone says something like that about exercise, all I think about is Legally Blonde when she goes, exercise gives you endorphins and endorphins make you happy and happy people just don't shoot their husbands.0
