Yesterday was another good day. Husband and I had a relaxing morning drinking coffee and talking. After lunch I went and got the kids from my parents and we had some family time. I also made a batch of Creamy Roasted Broccoli Soup, divided it into servings and put them in the fridge for lunches. I had a piece of the birthday cake I made as planned. Honestly, I'm not sure it was really worth it. It tasted good I guess, but I just don't crave things like that anymore and it kind of made me sick to my stomach for the rest of the day, and even this morning.3 -
So, as for me, I had a pretty decent day yesterday,
I am cooking! LOL Really? Yep.
I made some soup a few days ago and yesterday I made some blueberry bannock
from a recipe from a fellow MFP friend! It was sooo tasty!
I bought a lot of good healthy food to make other soups and veggie chili also.
I had a nice walk and did some coloring while listening to some tunes!
Yep. I am wild!!! LOL Can't wait till the pandemic is over!
Have a great Sunday everybody!
Well done with the cooking. Aw I miss coloring. A while back hubby bought me some coloring books to help me get some mindfulness time in. I think it’s time to take them back out.Hi lovely people! I made it, I´m here! Having a moment to write while I´m drinking a coffee.
January started strong as fork.
I have already started with the course of administration and it is a mess. We started the 6th and we had plenty of homework the same day. So much that I was in class from 9.00 to 12.00 and with homework from 12.30 to 23.00 Crazy! Then on the 7th we had another class and another bunch of homework. And in the weekend they send us again. I haven´t been able to be with my girlfriend, or cleaning or touching my nose. Everything for the course.
My steps have been quite bad BUT!!!!! I have managed almost every day to eat at least 3 meals
Wow I’m tired just reading your post. That’s a lot but I’m sure I’m the end it will all be worth it. Just remember to take some time for rest.lindamtuck2018 wrote: »Today we are heading over to the old apartment to clean up and grab anything that is left there. I can’t wait for tomorrow as I am going to do absolutely nothing. We are waiting to find out if my husband can go back to work tomorrow. They require a negative test result to allow him back. The nurse told him sometimes it can take 6 months to get a negative result. Keep your fingers crossed for him. I am going to research something I can start for exercise when I am not hurting anymore. The pool and exercise room are closed due to lockdown but trust me I will make good use of them when they open.
Have a nice relaxing Sunday!
tomorrow you will finally have some much deserved rest. You’ve had such a stressful time and soon this will all be in the past. Hugs to you Linda and I hope you are having a more positive day ❤️Steps

@lindamtuck2018 I'm so glad you have made the move but I know from experience how horrible cleaning out the old place can be - good luck! I hope you are sleeping better, knowing the hard part is over and you can begin to make your new house your home. On our educational tv we have a show that is chair exercise, and it comes on daily. I hope you are able to find something like that where you live. I did it when my leg was broken and it was a good workout!1

Weigh In Day: Sunday
PW: 178.2
CW: 178.8
LTD: 28.2
This week was rough. My almost 50 year old body cannot handle 10 hr shifts on my feet like it once was able to. I literally was on my feet every minute of the shift except for the one and only break that we got which was 30 minutes. My calories were under most days but I did not eat as planned as they provided lunch and I was too beat at the end of the day to make dinner. The scale jumped around this week and hit a new low ... 177.5 but that did not stick around for weigh-in and I ended with a slight gain. I am still pretty sore and I know there is inflammation and water retention at play. Next week I am in the pharmacy tent drawing up the vaccine. Still 10 hour shifts but I will be sitting. Hopefully, I can get some stretch breaks. I will do a better job prepping my meals and staying on track.6 -

Hi.
Sw 94.8
Pw 94.7
Cw 94.6
It has been a week of trying to get in routine. It will.be better this week with being back at work.
Completed all my training runs. 3,4,4,5kms - feel like I am making progress, but only week 2 of this plan.
Plan this week is 4,4,4,6kms
I discovered McDonalds hot choc has far too many cals, and also banana thickshake. They will now be on the special treats list
Goals for this week, continue with ensuring I drink enough water. Correct and true logging of foods.
