@vegan4lyfe2012 LOL that's true! I know I have lengthy posts and I am sorry about that but it's good to know some are reading! LOL Thank you. That's good you and Hunter are going to be accountability partners. Good luck! Aww, those babies are precious!
@Katmary71 Thank you! Have a great Saturday.
Hi all. I'm not feeling well so this will be quick. We went to the zoo and the whole time I had stomach pains. I still have them and a slight fever. I think I might go to urgent care in a couple of hours.
4th of July challenge: tracked 100% of what I ate
My phrase for the year: "Every choice is another chance to change my health for the better."
Hugs! I hope you feel better @trooworld! Let us know what happens.
@tammymccrady6278 30 Pounds is a great achievement!1 -

Rain was predicted for today starting at 6:00am, but it wasn't raining yet at 5:30 so I decided to chance it and get at least one walk outdoors. When I got home, the forecast had changed and was now calling for rain to start around 8:00. We had breakfast, then I dragged Rich out for a walk before the rain. We got home, he sat down with a book while I checked the forecast again. Now saying rain starting at 10:00. Yahoo! Grabbed my raincoat just in case, and went out for a third walk. Rich wanted to go shopping, and the rain was just starting. It's been pouring since. We went to Books A Million, and I bought 2 crochet books. The craft section of all the bookstores is really dwindling; now craft and crochet is all magazines or online. We went to Duluth Trading and Rich bought a long-sleeved T-shirt. Then we had lunch at a seafood restaurant, and shopping again, this time at Red's Shoe Barn. I bought some Brooks running shoes and a couple pairs of Darn Tough socks. When we came home I did a walking videos workout to finish out my 6 miles for today. I've decided to try to make 2023 miles for the year, and I'm a little behind but can make it if I get 6 miles each day through December.

@trooworld 😞🙏❤️🩹
Happy Saturday, Slims! ⚖️
It is pouring rain 🌧️☔ (again!) here in Maine. Two weeks, plus two days, and counting!, with very little breaks along the way 😝.
Happy 33rd birthday to my baby girl today! 💕. She's working all day, from 10a to 10p. Hubby and I dropped off a Dairy Queen ice cream cake, and three xl pizzas to her work. We brought a pizza party to her! Heh she was so happy 🩷

@micaroo4 Slayin the strength training challenge! Your shopping sounds like a lot of fun! Talk about some serious working out today, you were on the move all day!
@tammymccrady6278 Congratulations on 30lbs down!
@askewcr Congratulations on your sugar being lower, that’s a wonderful difference! I bet along with feeling better in the mornings the no later eating is helping your blood sugar too.
@trooworld Oh no I hope urgent care is able to help with your stomach, hang in there and thinking of you.
@19shmoo69 Funny sign!
@mkksemail Wow that’s a lot of rain for this time of year! Happy birthday to your daughter! That was very sweet of you and your huband to bring her a party, I’m sure she really appreciated it.
Hi team! I wasn’t going to go to the farm as I didn’t sleep well, my brother’s cat yowled all night long and turns out she was packed full of hairballs, I’m assuming they aren’t all just from her but I keep running across them, no wonder she was so unhappy last night. I decided to go for a bit and got into it and stayed longer than I meant to dealing with basil. Ran by the farmer’s market and picked up some stuff for my dinner tomorrow night with my parent’s and went to the nursery and am ready for bed already. I have to get the house straightened up and yard cleaned up before my parents come. Have a great Sunday!
- Fairly good body mechanics but about 70% of the time.

Nice day. Not the best weather, but not a complete wash out like Saturday. We went to the Wells Estuarine Reserve at Laudholm Farm. We didn't walk all of the trails. Many were wet and muddy from yesterday's rain. We got about 3 miles there. From there we went to Beach Plum Farm, which is headquarters for Great Works Land Trust and hiked the loop trail there. The trail is only about 3/4 miles, but there's a nice view of the dunes on Ogunquit.
From there we went back home and walked around Willand Pond, a hometown favorite of almost 2 miles. We came home for lunch, and will go out again shortly to walk the Dover Community Trail, which out and back I think will be about 2 miles. That will do it for the day, and it's the end of vacation. Back to work tomorrow.

Lovely!!
I'm sorry you had poor weather for your Maine vacation, mica 😞.
It's a bit dudgy today, but we're hoping to head north in RT 1, to Alewive's brewpub and farmhouse restaurant (seating on the lawn, outside) later today 🤞2 -

I actually dipped lower on Thursday but the weekend hit with weekend food and there you go. Nothing too crazy but sitting down for lunch with the family adds a lot more calories than picking at some fruit and veggies throughout the day at work.
Overall a good week! My mini goal is 215. Maybe this week I’ll hit it!4 -
@AmbersWay congratulations on the great total loss!
@trooworld That’s real frustrating, I’m sorry they didn’t get to the bottom of things at urgent care. I hope you’re feeling better tomorrow and won’t need to go to the ER. Gentle hugs to you.
@micaroo4 That’s an incredible amount of walking, sounds like great spots to do it! I’m sorry the rain interfered with your plans but sounds like you did amazing at working around it.
@mkksemail Have a great time at the pub and restaurant!
@megnolia82 Glad you didn’t get too crazy, I agree it’s a lot harder to eat as well with others around and being off the usual plan. Two fifteen here you come!
Hi everyone! My folks left a little while ago, I made the pasta primavera with shrimp then fruit over frozen yogurt with whipped cream, went well and sent them home with another meal of primavera and rosemary sourdough bread which has me thinking twice about saying no to a friend who offered me sourdough starter. I’d be a hot mess getting competitive to find the perfect recipes and eating too much bread so I know it’s not a good idea especially with diabetes, having bread every once and awhile I can get away with but not that often! I did a light workout then cleaned the house and yard. I’m worn out from yesterday at the farm so wasn’t as ambitious as I thought but everything went well and my dad loves his succulent I picked up. I’ve been doing better with eating and am feeling a little better about staying on track even though today was a little high.
Let’s have a great week team!

Eh - kinda par for the course since I raised my calories to maintenance. I'm planning to stay here for a few weeks. My goal is to keep my weight here within a few lbs.
This group is so active - it's hard to keep up! I'm really enjoying reading all of the posts and seeing all of the pictures.

@trooworld - I hope you feel better without going to the ER and you can celebrate the birthday when you do. Thinking of you.
@micaroo4 - your pix are beautiful! Sounds like a relaxing vacay
@Katmary71 - That's exactly what I would do with the bread- keep making batches until it was just right and then it would be so yummy I'd want to have a loaf around all the time. Stay strong!

@megnolia82 Congrats on the weight loss!
I've been getting more exercise due to gardening season. Nothing like working outside to relax the soul.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week!

Congratulations to all of you who had a loss this week and those who are still at it. 👏🏻
@trooworld I hope you’re feeling better this morning. 💐
@Katmary71 the pasta primavera dinner sounds lovely. Beware! My friend was experimenting with recipes and she shared so much with me. That’s probably why I am here. 😂😂😂😂 j/k. It’s amazing to have fresh bread in the house.
@micaroo4 your pictures are beautiful. I love green, it makes me happy. I hope you enjoy every moment.
@mkksemail dinner on the lawn sounds so nice. I hope you had a great time.

I feel so behind in catching up. I am reading and liking posts. You are definitely in my thoughts.
I’ve been quite busy trying to get everything done around here. Last minute errands, trying to changes schools for next year, getting the house all sorted, grabbing everything I need for traveling, grabbing gifts for my friends. I’m a delirious mess. 🤪
I’m excited though. Meeting a group of my friends tomorrow for dinner to say goodbye for a while.
I had a decent loss this week, not to hold onto will be my goal. Im down to frozen veggies and condiments in the fridge 😂. I grabbed some apples and cucumbers while I was out just for some fresh foods.

Good Morning Folks!
Would like to congratulate everyone who had a loss this week! "Keep up the amazing work!"
I manage to catch up on all the posts and things are really hopping in here. I will chime in as the week progresses.
Things are settling down here and life is returning to normal. Today we are gathering up the stuff from yard sale and donating what we can to our local homeless shelter. The rest is going to the local landfill.
The yard sale had a pretty good turn out but I am SO glad it is over. It is so miserably 🔥HOT🔥 heat advisory in effect for the rest of the month.
Now we can get get back to working on the house remodeling since it is an Inferno outside😂 still have some painting in the front of the house to finish up.
It is also time to refocus on my journey! NO MORE letting people pull me off track!
I hope everyone has a great day!

Pardon the delay in getting the results out to you - I've been out and about, and there was no time for me to sit down and make sure this was done right. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

Great job for everyone in the leaderboard!
I’m off today and it is absolutely gorgeous out. We have had so much rain as of late that it is nice to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine. I’m keeping with my zero days. Getting my water in daily and my steps. The exercise is coming but by no means totally regular. It will come I know it. Well going to sit back end enjoy the day.6 -

Hello, F2Fers! 🙋♀️
Happy Monday! Happy 'teenth! Today is our newest (US) federal holiday - Juneteenth, which marks the day, on June 19, 1865 that Union soldiers rode into Galveston TX (2 years after the end of the American Civil War, and also some years after the Emancipation Proclamation by Lincoln, that ended slavery in America), and let the last remaining enslaved people know that they were free.
As for up here in the still rainy and overcast corner of the country, aka 🌧️☔ Maine, lol ... Quiet day here today. Hubby, daughter, and I, went out for pizza and beer at a Farmhouse Brewpub and outdoor restaurant about an hour north of here yesterday. And then played Settlers of Catan Seafarer's Expansion Game until way WAY too late! 😱
I slept thru my lab appt this morning (TSH followup bc hypothyroidism meds tweaked about 6 wks ago). 😝 I called, and they let me come in 4 hrs and 15 mins late . 🤣
Cheers! ✌️

You guys are hilarious!! Life is great, I had the best week! Got 3 hikes in and my workouts plus worked 4 days! I’m finally able to log a “lowest” weight again after slacking off the past couple months prior. I used to stress when I wasn’t keeping up with logging but I’m doing the work and doing great so I felt there’s no need to stress over logging if I don’t have the time. I’m still making progress! Much love to you all. This group keeps me going for sure…6
