Good morning everybody!
Weekend was good. Saw my guys parents on Saturday for dinner and yesterday we had brunch with friends who we hadn't seen since last summer. Where does the time go?!
Not really on track food wise, because we are eating what's in the fridge and not making anything new aside from turkey on low carb wraps. LOL S'ok. One week at a time. Once this move is done then I'll get back on track.
More icky weather here today. Some snow showers and rain. Hopefully will melt some of this stuff on the ground so that when it warms up later in the week we'll be able to move on from all this snow.
Sending hugs to you, @KateNkognito hope all is okay at work. Take it one day at a time. You got this!
Hello to @mamainthekitchen and @melaniecheeks! Have a nice one and see you soon!0 -
Sounds like such a nice weekend Meghan, glad you had some fun! We’re still on stay at home orders here!
Stabbed myself in the hand with a steak knife yesterday! New avo oil lid was just spinning round and round... figured I could break the seal with a knife!! Ya... don’t ever do that!! Luckily have steri-strips in the cupboard & FaceTimed my daughter who is a nurse cause I wasn’t sure if I needed stitches... we agreed since I had those strips that they would help and I could avoid going to hospital! Omg what an idiot!
Other than that drama, it’s the same old thing here!! Trying to limit the junk!!
Hope your week is off to a good start y’all...!2 -
Oh my goodness mama, hope your hand is OK!2

Good morning all!
@mamainthekitchen sending hugs regarding your hand! UGH. That stinks. Hope it is okay and you are feeling better.
Rocking and rolling here. In the office today getting some stuff done then prepping for the packers coming at 9:00am tomorrow. *screams*
Have a good one and see you soon.1 -
@mamainthekitchen I hope your hand heals quickly! Steri-strips are fantastic. Thanks for the positive vibes.
@Meghan509 Good luck with the move!
Hi, @melaniecheeks !
Tomorrow is the big day to find out about the job stuff. Super stressed. I've been eating like an unsupervised 5 year old. Not sleeping. I am not even going to look at the scale until this is all over.
I hope everyone is having a great week! Stay healthy!2 -
Hey thanks everyone! That all happened so fast and I knew it wasn’t a good idea... you know, you just do it anyway! I stabbed in that area in between the thumb knuckle & index knuckle....my husband held his hand up to show the L shape for loser to explain to our neighbour!!! So I appreciate the empathy from you all! I’m super bruised now too!!
I had a good fast day and lots of walking today... son had a 3 hr exam online so I just kept walking after dropping off the dog!
Kate I do hope whatever you’re going thru at work, settles... I know the treats seem like comfort, but try to ignore!!
Good luck with your packers tomorrow Meghan!! Exciting times!
Hi to Melanie! Wondering what interesting foods you’re cookin’ up??
Goodnight!0 -
Hi all!
Packers were here from 9:00am to 1:00pm and holy hot damn they were amazing!! We are in super duper good shape for Monday morning at 8:00am. I should take a picture of the boxes so you can see the chaos I am typing from. LOL
Update on my Dad - he got bumped (down) to Stage 3 Esophagus cancer as it had spread to the lymph nodes sigh... Next week he starts five weeks of chemo, three days a week with a week off in between. Then six weeks of chemo and radiation at the same time, five days a week. Hopes to be finished mid May time frame. He will have all of this done at a specialist on the west coast of Florida. He is in good spirits and I feel optimistic that he will make it through.
Sending positive vibes, @KateNkognito Don't stress. You got this.
@mamainthekitchen sounds like a fabulous walk! Glad your hand is okay.
@melaniecheeks yes, what Mama said - what's cooking?! Your meals always sound delish!
Have a good one all. Tomorrow is Thursday and a somewhat normal day. Working all day remotely and then at 5:15pm we get the keys to our new place! WOO HOO!
See you soon. -Meg0 -
My meeting went ok. It is really satisfying to hand your resignation letter to jackwagons. Now to finish this school year and find a new job.
@Meghan509 I will keep your dad and your family in my prayers. Glad the packers were so awesome!
@mamainthekitchen Your husband sounds like mine! LOL Your walk sounds lovely!
Off to nap and walk the dog. Have a great rest of the week! Stay healthy!2 -
Good morning all!
Sending hugs @KateNkognito it must have been a very tough situation for you to resign.
You got this. A better job awaits you next school year.
Things are good here. One more night here with annoying upstairs neighbors. Sigh... Did I tell you guys about that? Yep, that is one of the reasons we decided to move - constant 24/7 annoying, loud, rude neighbors. Once we complained it got better but still not great. Another reason is we need more space! Sitting here on a couch all day working remotely is not good for my aching back. Will be nice to have peace and quiet and more space for working, entertaining, and having family and friends over.
Been sticking with my Keto WOE for breakfast and lunch. Dinner, not so much. Take out is our friend right now since everything is packed up.
Have a great Thursday all. I am moving tomorrow AM so if you don't hear from me for a few days don't worry. I will be back when I come up for air.
Hugs, -Meg2 -
@Meghan509 I hope the move went well! No more annoying neighbors!
SO. GLAD. it is FRIDAY! Have a great weekend, y'all! Stay healthy!1 -
I forgot to say that I fasted today for the first time in about a week and a half. I did have a bunch of diet Mt. Dew, though. I had a small dinner and will fast again until breakfast.2

Wow! My hand has really affected my eating and well everything! Today I washed my face with two hands!!! Woohoo! I’ve been eating whatever I’m served so therefore I’ve gained probs 6 lbs!! Using my phone , which I check mfp with has been challenging since gripping is the problem. I was told not to use my hand! So I’ve done nothing all week! The range of purple of the bruising was soooo bad I should have taken a pic for you guys! Ah! No!!! Sparing gory details!!
So happy for you meg to be in new place!! Are you in nice walking area? Glad you’ll have designated space for work! Exciting indeed!!
Kate... change is scary, but when it’s on your terms it’s impowering!! Do your own thing girl!
I haven’t logged, fasted or walked on my own the past week.... barely celebrated our anniversary (32!) went to bistro & food was not good... carb loaded greasy high calorie junk washed down with beer! Gross! A few more days of hand rest and all will be better!!!
Goodbye February!0
