    Wow, Barb. I can only imagine how difficult the holidays were this year without Kevin. I am so sorry. Yes, pets can certainly become family members, I believe. However, I am humbled by your kindness to mention my loss, when yours was so very, very great. May this year bring you the sort of peace you never thought possible. 🧡🧡 Lee

    Good evening everyone.
    Check in for 1/8:
    Steps - 12729
    Calories - about 1801. Had to guess at lunch. Ate at sea world.
    Exercise - 4 1/2 hours at sea world. 2 complete laps around the park.

    I wore my compression socks for the first time in over a week. Still got "fuzzy" a few times. Wound up with 95 minutes with a high pulse while at sea world. Not a good thing since I wasn't trying to exercise. I hope it gets better. Wednesday is Disneyland. I will be wearing the compression socks every day to get as much benefit as possible.

    Amazing steps! How long are you going to Disney for? You will get lots of steps. Hopefully, the dizziness settles.

    Thank you Linda. Air fryer is getting worked for sure. Today I made filet mignon wrapped in bacon. The recipe was from skinnytaste. It was so good. Not dry at all which is what worried me most. I’m gonna try a whole chicken next. 🤞🏻

    ✅close rings
    ✅steps 7,836
    ✅log food daily

    I didn’t think I would close my exercise ring last night. With the Apple Watch if it’s not at the pace of a brisk walk it doesn’t count. I did over 30 minutes of mini walks to hit 21 minutes of exercise. So at 11pm last night I walked around the apartment until I closed the ring. But I got it done. 💪

    Happy Sunday!

    Thank you. I was hoping for a bigger loss but it’s ok I will take this. I’ve been trying to get back on track but have had a few slip ups. I’m getting there.

    Have you thought about a soda stream. I am loving mine but i am trying to figure out the perfect carbonation level.

    I've seen soda stream before, but never really looked into it. I know it sounds odd, but I'm not much of a fan of sparkling water to drink like regular water, it doesn't feel as hydrating to me like regular water. Fizzy drinks don't feel hydrating either, but of course there's particular tastes to them I suppose :p

    @mszoueb welcome back. The fizzy drink to fill you up is a great idea!

    Thank you, whilst they are low on calories, I suppose having them isn't the healthiest option, but whilst I get used to smaller portions again, it may just have to be present more so for now. Other than that, I've had a serving or two of BBQ lentil crisps (chips) for 94 cal per 20g serving so a decent amount, they are tasty.
