By no means I’m steady through the week, but Thursday morning is the the same place/same time situation 😂. I’ve seen +/-3 while I’m going through a stressful planning; or I’m complicating things in my mind and then try to untangle them in the middle of the night , when my husband sleeps . Oh, well.
Intro: I’m 50yo, married, 2 kids , a cat and a dog, desk job, leave in No VA, and my exercise is on/off.

I am a bit surprised to see my weight stayed the same. If I had a digital scale, I am sure there would have been a small weight gain. I didn't control my eating this week as well as I should have, but then again, I didn't eat as poorly as I have in the past. My goal for this week is to restart the 21 Day Fix routine and complete it. I have restarted it so many times... I get 1 or 2 weeks in and then something happens, and I miss a day, or two, or three

@trooworld What are the blue dots you talk about? Is there a prize when you collect a certain number? Reminds me of my son's reward chart, and I am wondering if a reward chart would help me stay on track... I doubt it. I just need more self-control.

@trooworld I just made up Thrash Thursday and Funky Friday to make my workouts more exciting at the end of the week, haven't figured out the other days yet! I bought the tahini for hummus, I don't know much about it but definitely like it! Sounds like you still did good on eating even if you didn't get the dot. Have a great weekend!

@GabiV125 I think sometimes we make things too complicated, there were times I'd wake up in the middle of the night upset I forgot to log something, better sleep is more important than being super regimented! Hope you figure things out and your planning falls into place.

@judiasverdes I'm glad your weight stayed the same when you thought there would be a gain, that's wonderful!

@askewcr Sounds like you're hussling away today, gym and cleaning is great exercise!

Hi everyone, happy Friday! So I'd asked my neighbor out and she really didn't seem thrilled so I was getting really nervous she just said yes to be polite, I kind of suspected after losing her husband and COVID she may have been having a hard time being social and turned out that's what it was, she thanked me right away for getting her out of the house then said later she didn't know how to talk to people anymore and used to be so social and asked if I minded if she drank more because she was nervous being out. I posted this on my feed but I was bedridden for 20 years and rarely had to interact with strangers, I was having panic attacks just talking to cashiers and other students at school when I started so I forced myself out each day to get over it so I could relate to that quite a bit. We ate out then hung out at her house, she's a huge bookworm too and sent me home with a bunch of books to read. I'm really happy I did it even though it caused me anxiety, totally worth it which is usually is. Did my workout and got my nephew a gift card for books for his birthday. All my ducks are in a row, have a bunch of healthy food and did my workout, heading into the yard soon.

@TeresaW1020 I’m sorry that Joe has a stomach bug, glad he is a bit better. You need to look after yourself❤️ . As you are enjoying that bottle of wine, I say cheers to you 🥂 !

@Katmary71 after being bedridden for 20 years, how very brave and compassionate of you to reach out to your neighbour and follow through. Your strength is inspirational!!

@trooworld i have to say that your “go get it” attitude is admirable!! Enjoy your Mother’s Day celebration

Just a quick check in today. I had a great Thursday and Friday morning woke up with a wicked cold. As my son said to me “ Mom you need to go find your immune system!” You need to go find your immune system“, which is so true! I just had that stomach bug and then two days later got hit with this cold. I am definitely feeling better today than yesterday, but this is ridiculous.

@TeresaW1020 I'm so sorry to hear your back is acting up, hope you feel better when you wake up and feel less grouchy. Pain and grouchiness are great bedfellows! I can totally see how drinking wine snowballed, I notice when I drink now I crave carbs but I don't tend to any other time. Congratulations on starting the Never Binge Again program, I hope this is just what you need.

@laurelfit57 I hope you feel better soon, talk about getting whammied! Just saw you're doing better today, I'm so glad. Your day sounds like fun but long! I know exactly what you mean, I worked out then went to the garm and sat scooting down the rows, I tried to get up and my hip flexors cramped, stupid body!

@trooworld The blues festival sounds fun, have a great time!

Hi everyone! Did my workout this morning with my new weight bench I got off the freebie app, I dragged it in front of my computer and it was really fun to do something new. I was at the food bank farm for two hours, a bunch of high school kids were there as today was a community service day and the high school sent them over. I've been pretty tired since I got home, my brother asked for Skinnytaste Greek Pasta Salad for our get-together for Mother's Day and my youngest nephew's birthday so I made it tonight so the flavors could settle in. Off to read my Susan Mallery book, obviously the couple will end up together in one of hers but I have to see how it happens! Have a great Sunday and Happy Mother's Day!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all the moms!

all my children have fur.

@TeresaW1020 Thank you, it was fun! I'm sorry about the binge. I'm excited to see how the intensive program goes. I hope it helps.

@Digger61 @amioc Congrats on the losses!

@laurelfit57 Thank you, it was fun! I'm glad you are feeling better. I'm glad you got to see the senior dogs do agility. That sounds like fun!

@Katmary71 Thank you, it was! Yay for a new free weight bench! I hope you enjoyed your book.

@Cornanda I'm glad you had a good time with your company. Have a good day.

Hi all. The blues festival was so much fun but my eating and drinking did not go as planned. I'm kind of mad at myself honestly. I had a plan and I just blew through it. But oh well. Today's a new day.

Speaking of today, if this is your special day, then I hope you have a good one. Mother's Day is painful for me, I may have mentioned this previous Mother's Days. I didn't have a good relationship with my mother when she was alive and never felt loved by either of my parents. I don't have children. This day is kind of a big dagger in my heart. I stay off social media for the day because all of the "Happy Mother's Day"s are too much for me. If you are like me, well, hugs to you. I see you.

My phrase for the year: "Something needs to change…so I will take no crap and eat no crap!"

Early day at work for me (5:30am), due to needing to connect with our remote IT guy to process the 2021 year end close. Everything closed OK, as expected. I always breathe a sigh of relief when the year is closed and all the before and after reports are in balance.
It's a cold day here in NH. We had a frost last night. It's supposed to get up to 60F today, but the cold start certainly put an end to my plans to bike to work today.
