@mareeya88 Are you starting over today? Just look forward (unless you’re learning from it don’t beat yourself up), you got this!

@DrewsAnna Yum that sounds amazing, I’ll look for the fruity ones to try then. Great choice today with the quesadilla and logging today!

@Brigit02 It’s funny weigh-ins after eating something like that feel like a “get outta jail free card” don’t they! Enjoying food isn’t bad and yeah Godiva would be hard to resist!

@trooworld I’m not getting a lot of sleep right now which makes the pain worse plus it’s spreading while I wait for the snail to get from my doctor’s office with my referral to the neurosurgeon. Today’s cooler is 103, can’t tell it’s not 109 like yesterday. I hope it’s better there! Thanks for asking re the pain. I really miss my tea helping.

@megnolia82 Have a great time at camp!

@DJill68 shoot you have me quoting Eminem “Snap back to reality up there goes gravity”. I’ll have to listen that tomorrow to get it out of my head. It’s great how if we really do get back to it fast it’s not as bad as it seems and tends to come off pretty quick.

Hi team, had a tough night last night and didn’t get to sleep until about 3. I worked out then ran errands and met my friend and her mom for ice cream. Not much up, it’s super hot and I’m tired and grumpy. Have a great Tuesday team.

No Zero Days- good workout though I limited myself on weights to keep my arm from going out, food was over for ice cream with a friend, water was good.

OMG, I can deal with 90s but anything over 100 is too dang HOT 🔥 🥵 Downright dangerous! Stay hydrated, stay cool!

@trooworld It does, honestly I never hear any females from perimenopause on that has good sleep, if we could find something to help it all of us we could take over the world! It’s both pain and I’m assuming hormonal stuff for me. How did the sandwiches turn out, did you try one yet? I know water, not snacking, and not eating at the café have been challenging areas so you did awesome today!

@19shmoo69 Haha I’ve reached pesky sister status in this group!
Hi friends! Usually Tuesday, I did a light upper body workout (having a lot of right shoulder down arm stuff so I went REAL light to not flare it up) and stretched then went to the farm. We’re turning into master garlic braiders! I taught 5 people how to do it but we still have a couple more days. I like finishing tasks but can’t go too often so all the garlic everywhere is nerve-wracking. It IS nice being in the shade during this heat wave though. Back on track with food today too. Have an awesome Wednesday!

No Zero Days- decent workout plus farm, healthy food under calories, decent water.

@Katmary71 Yes! I don't understand, since we all know how vital sleep is, how they haven't come up with a solution to the periomenopause/menopause problems with sleep. My doctor has basically washed her hands of it, kind of like, "Well, you tried my stupid suggestions, you are on your own now." lol The sandwiches turned out well. I baked the scrambled eggs in this pan I have that has shallow round cups that are about 3 inches wide each that are perfect for a breakfast sandwich. I haven't been to the cafe yet this week, which is really good for me! Thank you. That must be so cool having all the garlic in braids everywhere.

Hi all. I was able to get a last-minute doctor's appt for today for my knee. I hope she can figure something out. I've got a convention to go to on Friday and Saturday and I don't want to be miserable instead of having fun.

My phrase for the year: "Every choice is another chance to change my health for the better."

@FushiaKat That’s great advice on eating slower. I like your rewards! My next one may be a pair of dragon earrings, I want a couple practical things but that's not too expensive (and I love dragons).

@trooworld You’re doing awesome avoiding the café! I hope your appointment went well for your knee, definitely want you going to that convention having a blast.

@AmbersWay It sounds like you’re still doing really good while there, keep up the great work!

Slow couple days here, I hope all of you are doing well! Nothing exciting to report here, I picked up a donation at the nursery I love for a charity event and came home with some plants I’ll get in tomorrow, not the greatest planting time but we’re going back up again so it’s the best time for a few days. Back on track after ice cream the other day, been doing good with eating lately thank goodness. Have an awesome Thursday!

No Zero Days- chair cardio/legs/abs, stretching, watering the yard. Healthy food under calories and decent water, I’ll drink a lot more before bed.

@trooworld You have to go to the convention! I'm dying to see pictures. Are you dressing up?

@Cornanda Oh no sorry to hear you’re in the insomnia club again. Pain still stinks, we had to stop with the garlic when we were almost done today, there’s about an hour left. Oh good I’m glad you found some areas to improve.

@trooworld I’m sure your husband is trying to help you but I can see where that would be a sensitive area. What about switching to a plant-based creamer like an oat milk or almond one? They aren’t bad and a little lower calorie than the regular ones. Have a wonderful time this weekend!

@tfelt147 If you’re going on a cruise you’re probably shopping for clothes for it, right? How about finding something in a smaller size that could be a goal item for you? I really hate having to buy larger clothes so that would help me!

@19shmoo69 That’s one line I’ve never said when my legs have given out, I’ll remember that!

@bethanie0825 I’m so sorry to hear about your pup. That sounds like a tough cold, I hope you’re on the mend from it soon! Awesome job with 5lbs down!

@DrewsAnna Shoot I was hoping he’d leave you alone now!

Hi team! On a little early to make up for not being on last night. I was gone until after dinner last night and went outside to water and my fence had very obviously been on fire as the lot behind it was all black as was the fence. The owner of that empty lot never responds to fence problems but another neighbor told me today he reports the lot as a fire hazard every year to force him to clean it up, this time he sent someone with a couple mowers on a 100 degree day and the weeds caught fire. California insurance is skyrocketing and also refusing to give it to some buyers so we were unsure what we’d do about this but a fireman was here earlier and told me it was definitely the lot owner’s fault. I exchanged info with 2 neighbors who have a little damage and will share the report when I pick it up tomorrow. Other than that usual stuff. Have a great weekend! And garlic is ALMOST done! Tomorrow it will be for sure, we could’ve finished in 30 minutes but I rushed home as my neighbor said she heard people talking back there and until I talked to all of them all I didn’t know what happened.
