The other day my cat snuck in the garage and ripped the Costco bag with dog food. She was so stuffed by the time she got in the house, she slept for 4h straight. Now I have to watch the portions for the both of us .

Today is a new day and I've got this! My mind is made up today that I will be victorious. I'm working on increasing those proteins and this is my new beginning. Let's go get it!!

It's rough! I got cortisone injections in my knees b/c I can't get my usual ones for 2 months still. My knees blew up like balloons. So much better today, so I hope I can walk and get the bike in a tiny bit. My Kiddo leaves to college tomorrow (only about 2 hours away, but not HOME with me
) and I am a wreck. Non stop crying. Sorry to dump here, just the honest update.
Have a good week, everyone!4 -
@GabiV125 - Oh dear, poor kitty. Cute post though!
@trooworld- good corrections on the food. You got this!
@askewcr - positive as always and rockin' the changes.
@leonadixon - Hugs to you. Hope your knees feel better quick! I feel your pain on sending off the kiddo. I'm about to send both of mine off next week. Is this freshman year or a returning student?
Not much going on here. Did a booty kicking step workout plus a 60 min walk today. Dinner will be a shrimp stir fry with lots of veggies.
Starting reading Tiny Habits and I'm intrigued.3 -
@Cornanda, she is a freshman this year. Our first time really apart...

Hi Team! I need to do a quick update, but I did read each of your posts. I’m on my way up to the church to sit in on an audition for a new worship pastor. Today was a good day. I started my new workout program and that went well. I also did well with my eating. I’m a little over on my calories but nothing I’m worried about. Fingers are crossed for a good weigh-in on Friday!! I'll catch up with you all tomorrow.

Today was a good day. I even went to the mall and walked during the thunder storm but my heel started hurting again. Not sure what to do about that. I need to walk. Might be headed to the doctor about it.

@leonadixon - I've been through it twice and it won't be easy. But you will make it. You will stop crying. And it will be the new normal. And you will be so proud of the things she can handle on her own and the fine young woman she is becoming. It's OK to be a wreck for awhile. Hugs to you!0

@TeresaW1020 - hope the pastor interview went well. Glad your workout went well.
@renaegry - Yay you for doing a workout!
@askewcr - Hope your heel feels better and yes, load up the veggies. Nice and filling and low calorie!
@trooworld- you are making all the choices that align with your goals this week. Nice work!
I did not finish tracking my day yesterday, but I know it turned out OK with the stir fry supper. Did a walk and a strength workout today. That's about all the exciting news here.1 -
@renaegry Great workout!!

@askewcr If your heel is continuing to hurt then you for sure should get it looked at.
@trooworld You are having a great week! The more you say no to the café and vending machines the easier it will become. This morning the church kitchen had leftover cupcakes on the counter. They were just staring at me and I just stared right back as they got dumped in the trashcan.
@Cornanda The interview for the new music pastor went well and he was a super nice kid but very inexperienced. I just found out that the guy who has been filling in now wants the job so that makes me and the rest of the staff very happy!
Keep up those good days of yours! 
@TwistedSassette I sent you a private message.
Hi Team! Today was a good day. My staff meeting went extra long today so I just cleaned the one building and will go back in the morning and do the other one. I was glad to come home since I was super hungry from not eating since last night and very pleased that I didn’t cave into the cupcakes that were left in the church kitchen. I’m still working on the squat challenge but will have it done before the end of the day.
Saw this graphic today and it so spoke to how I view life. We will all slip up and need to begin again. When we do, I want us to remember this important slogan.

Hey gang, it's Thursday afternoon, I just came back from watering at the food bank farm. It's not too bad now, it's just a handful of seedlings now that the drip system is working for the fields and the guy in charge has been there in the mornings. I FINALLY, 16 months in, got a 7 day trial for a pain killer which is kind of a joke because I've taken it numerous times but whatever, it's something right? It's yet another hoop so here I go dragging myself through it. Other than that food has been good, workouts still limited with legs. Think I told you my boyfriend and I went to see a friend for lunch Monday in Tahoe. So Tuesday there was a hissing sound in the garage, the stem on my tire broke and as soon as I touched it all the air came out and the lug nut wrench is missing and my boyfriend's transmission is out so AAA had to come and change my tire then I dropped it off and came home. Of COURSE that wrench is gone, I seriously have backups of just about everything you can possibly think of! I picked it up yesterday and saw my nephews for a pizza party. I ended up taking one of my emergency pain killers last night because I couldn't sleep, I've been fighting to get this prescription approved and my insurance had given me permission to go to the ER but I didn't want to- luckily I fell asleep. I hate needing pain killers again but nights are way too tough these days. SO, still swinging, not really any other viable choice.
Keep kicking butt, sorry for not being real motivational lately, I'm really tired on Topomax but it does help some.1 -

@TeresaW1020 - Yay for that 7! So happy for you!
@trooworld - hope the scale is kind to you today. You've worked very hard!
Congrats to all who lost this week!
I'm bummed that the scale was up a tiny bit. I worked hard this week and yesterday I appeared to be poised for a small loss today. But, I got a little "upwoosh" instead. Oh well- that's how it goes sometimes.2 -

Finally!! After weeks of nothing, a big drop!5 -
@trooworld It sounds like you're getting into amazing shape there!
@Cornanda Sorry to hear about the upwoosh, it's hard to say what it could be, could be hormones, sodium, stress, or any number of things. I wish I had the magic answer, it's really frustrating sometimes!
@Lulu_jo Congratulations on the big drop!
Hey gang, just called to make an appointment with the dentist, the tooth that couldn't "possibly" be having problems has been loose for awhile, its the same one that I had root canal in last year, then it broke eating a tortilla, had it crowned, went in because it was having pain but it couldn't possibly be that tooth and another was cracked and the dentist fixed that one, and then this was loose but since the dentist is 30 miles away now I've been postponing it but I can't eat what I want I had all those upper teeth done last year and that's BS, I want to eat corn-on-the-cobb again! After this is done I'm going to go back to the dentist near my house, I just can't get to this guy and he seems to cause more problems than he fixes, he's nice but he doesn't take my insurance and nothing was covered by it anyway, I'm just hoping I'll get a discount since he should've seen the problem the other 4xs. Aside of that nothing else is going on, did my workout and am taking it easy today, we're in a heat wave so I'm laying low.3 -

@Katmary71 - Ooooooohhh. I do not like going to the dentist. I hope things are looking up for your teeth soon!0
-
@Katmary71 I’m glad that you got into the trial and maybe, just maybe this time will be different. We can pray that it will, right? Oh my about the dentist and your poor teeth! Hang in there and continue to fight for what you need.

@askewcr Your protein is good! Could you try to either get your fat or carbs to go lower? It’s when they are both high and especially higher than your protein that weight loss can become more challenging.
@trooworld I had to go look up what Popcorners were!
Yikes, your boxing sounds so intense! I am super proud of you for not only sticking it out but doing so well. Heck yeah, that scale is going to be down!! 
@Cornanda Thanks, I’m catching up with you!!
I don’t know how many times I’ve got the dreaded upwoosh on weigh-in day! Just keep doing your thing and it will down whoosh soon! 
@TwistedSassette I’m thinking of you and that cold you came down with. I sure hope it didn’t turn into something more serious. We miss seeing your posts!
Hi Team! Well as you can see by the pic below, I finally made it to the 170s which is such a huge milestone for me. It’s been since I was a teenager that I weighed this low and I’m just so freaking happy that I haven’t given up on myself and that I’m going to continue to push to reach my goal weight. It has taken so much longer than I intended but I’ve also learned so much along the way, which to me is so important. My real ultimate goal is to never be obese again!!
