Once you figure it out, let me know! 😂

Hmmm…that doesn’t work for me. I use the app on my phone. They said they’re working on the bugs and one of them had to do with new posts or something.

I may have updated my ticker but I haven’t been very successful at minding my eating habits. I really really need to start logging again. Still no results on my blood work.

I’ll have to check that out, too. I feel like there must be all kinds of features on MFP that I’m just not aware of or don’t take the time to really understand.

I think I’ll start with just logging my breakfast every day. One more week and this estate sale will be over. Then it’s just boxing stuff up to take to a donation center. My son is coming for Thanksgiving so I really need to get at least a guest room set up before then. After Thanksgiving I should have my life back. 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

This is confusing, isn't it? But will hopefully be better!

I've been MIA, this time because my cat became very ill. Everything has been on hold while I've been nursing him. He has been on lots of medication and syringe feeding, in and out of the vets and really unwell. It has been hugely stressful as I am probably overly attached to him and I was just beside myself with him being so unwell and the thought of losing him. Anyway, with no expense spared, he now appears to be on the mend, fingers crossed.

I have actually lost weight because I was so stressed about it (and believe me, I have to be REALLY stressed to lose rather than gain!! ). Of course, the first thing that happened when he started showing improvement was that I got my appetite back, lol!

He is now diagnosed as diabetic, so I'm still having to give up all engagements while I sort out his insulin, etc. I'm worried about overdosing him, and of course I've been cancelling everything (social, vaccinating work, voluntary work) as I need to be with him as much as I can. It's going to be quite a commitment, for the rest of his life, but at the moment I'm just glad that he seems to be recovering and that there's hope for him.

Anyway, if nothing else, if I'm really working to keep him healthy, I've surely got to try to do the same for myself. I need to step up the exercise and eat healthily too, and carry on losing weight instead of just letting it bounce back up again!

I'm confused by your numbers because here 41 is pre-diabetic, so obviously on a different scale!

Hello! to everyone! I do not like this new set up they call improvement...It took me forever to find the thread. lol

I tried to read the posts quickly.

Glad everyone is still okay.

Can't remember what I posted last, but I had a great trip, both of them !!

Later on around the end of Sept. I caught Covid...not so great. but I made it through without having to go to the hospital . The way I see it, if you are admitted to the hospital, you don't have to worry about be un-admitted. (if you know what I mean)

So glad to hear you have moved in, Suzy. I forget where you moved to. It must feel wonderful.

Snoozie, are you all still under lockdown?

We have to be vaccinated here for work, but I have to wait 90 days since I had covid and then the infusion of antibodies.
I don't want the shot though...but I have to work.

So, Vail, it seems your son has married...Congratulations to him !!

I just have no free time with this job!! I don't know how they expect me to function...hahaha

Be safe,
G

It's lovely to see you, Gail. You sound as busy as ever! I'm so glad you've recovered OK from covid. That must have been such a worry to have it. I know what you mean about going to hospital. Although I think a lot more people are recovering in hospital now. I do have some hope for better treatments.

Good luck with the estate sale, Suzy. It all sounds like a very stressful and exhausting business.

Thanks for your congratulations for my son. He was a child at secondary school when I started with MFP and now he's married it seems like he's really properly grown up! We have all had so much going on since joining all those years ago!

Thanks for your comments about my cat, Snooozie and Suzy. I have had pets over the years and yes, they are like family members, but I've got particularly attached to him above all others. I think I feel even more attached now after spending all this time cuddling him and syringe feeding him and cleaning him when he couldn't do it himself. He has lost so much weight and feels so light when I pick him up. He is better again today, more like himself, so I'm holding out hope that he is going to fully recover and it will just be a case of managing his diabetes. Which is going to be an expensive business!
