I see my podiatrist this morning .....My knee is still bruised and swollen (even though I ice it daily) but I am not limping which is a good thing ..my ankle is sore but I think this is the one that he said has arthritis in it (this is the ankle that twisted when I fell on our walk on 10/4 ) ...no other news to report from me ... I hope everyone else is doing great ... I have been in a funk for a bit is why you haven't heard much from me ... I am trying to pull myself out of it but I am struggling5

I completed my bingo card last night. ☺️
@Megan_smartiepants1970 I'm sorry you are struggling. Being hurt is the worst. I hope things get better for you soon. ❤️
@lindamtuck2018 It's kinda a acquired taste with all the supplements. But if you made a kale and fruit one I think it's delicious. I find that the kale is much easier for me to eat in a smoothie. The banana especially but all the fruit balances of the kales bitterness.7 -

@lindamtuck2018 Thank you for reminding me of my dance video goal I had started last year. The channel I was using has been posting new videos all this time so I've got lots to catch up on haha.
I chose one yesterday to do, to pick up where I left off, and it felt great to be dancing again. It was 36mins, and ended up being a great one too so I saved it!
Glad I mentioned it. What channel are you using?Megan_smartiepants1970 wrote: »lindamtuck2018 wrote: »Wednesday check in

I did get my key to the pool yesterday so I am all set for getting in under the new rules. I had a fairly decent workout but I did have to catch my breath every now and then. I will miss the pool the next few days.
I will gain weight this week. My food as been off and the nighttime eating has happened 3 times this week. I know it’s my anxiety which as been getting worse over the last while. I need to find a better way to deal with the anxiety besides eating. I need to have some compassion for myself instead of beating myself up about this. I pray the injection works today and I can get back to some of the activities I love such as walking in the fall. Walking is a great anxiety medication.
Off to prep some stuff for supper. Hubby is cooking tonight which is a rare occasion.
Happy Thursday!
I hope the injection will help with the pain
Thanks Megan! I am getting nervous as the appointment is in a couple of hours.2 -

Nice loss! Congrats on a full card! I think smoothies would be a great addition to my diet.888Angie888 wrote: »Check in 10/13:

Great NSV!2 -
Almost time for my appointment and I am getting nervous. 😩 Off to get fold clothes and then get ready.3

NSV went to lunch with my best friend and instead of getting a soda stuck to unsweetened tea. That makes 14 days without a Dr. Pepper5

Happy Thursday everyone! My daughter says hello to all of you. Both budgie birds are doing well and say cheep, cheep! I've been for a walk and I feel great! I'll be doing some dancing after supper. Have a great day, everyone! Take care and stay safe.3

Hope the podiatrist helps!
Thanks Linda ... He didn't help much ... he said oh my your knee looks awful ... and he said you have osteoporosis and arthritis in your left ankle ..my appt. was for 8:30am I didn't see him until 9:206 -
@lindamtuck2018 Yoga kicked my butt. I waddled outta there. 😄
Today I was able to speak with a local Pharmacist about Managing my Type2 Diabetes. She really helped me a lot and now I see my Primary Doctor tomorrow, I can share her information with him. Hopefully he listens. 👍4 -
Hi everyone! Wow, so much happens when you don't read posts for 24 hours! I'm impressed with how well everyone is doing at BINGO. I'm also sending positive thoughts to all of you currently struggling with health issues and/or injuries.
I've done okay this week, my macros are right on track, but my calorie intake is higher than it should be. I've been doing too much mindless eating in the evenings while watching shows with my husband, so I'm going to take a break from the TV tonight and instead take a bath, read a book, and go to bed early. I'm hoping that will help me be on track for my weigh-in tomorrow! My weight on Tuesday was great, down another pound, but then today it had jumped up even more than the start of the month... I know it's probably mostly water retention, but I need to scale to be going in right direction!
My NSV is running during the lunch hour twice this week, even though it was cold and rainy both days. Usually I prefer to exercise after work, but it's getting darker much earlier now so running during lunch ensures that I can't skip out in the evenings.6 -

That looks so delicious! Let me know how it turns out! You can never go wrong with butter and prawns.
