    I looked it up! Yes, they are basically the samething (similar) my right legs is the worst, even though it's also in my lift leg too.

    I don't think it's silly nor crazy to dream or focus some time on what we've lost. I also picture in my mind when I'm relaxing to some peaceful music on how it used to be, walking through beautiful countryside or into the woods.

    I've traveled all the United States mainland and done a lot of walking and saw some beautiful things. I don't think you're crazy to think about or dream about what once was. It is very calming to me also and it does help when you're stressed to think of the positive and beautiful things that you have seen & done.

    Hope you continue to focus on the good things.

    Marie, 😃

    1.5 off 😊

    Phew! I was nervous all week that I would put some of the 7.5lb loss back on! I’ve been full of cold so there’s been zero exercise and so many lozenges! 🤧

    But I feel great this morning so it’s back to the gym, then I have my grandaughter this weekend. We are going for a run with Joe Wicks tomorrow. Morning!

    Enjoy your weekend lovely people 💗😊 x

    Woohooooo!

    I have a condition where my blood flows very slowly through my body and causes some severe issues with my legs. Called(Chronic Venous insufficiency)or CVI is a condition in which the veins have problems moving the blood back to the heart. Also, at times some veins will cause the blood to flow backwards, I've had two procedures to permanently close veins in my right leg front and back, because of this. Our blood flows in one direction, it's not supposed to go backwards, but when it does can cause problems. However, it's not supposed to be life threatening.

    My goal for this week:
    Work on increasing the amount of time I'm up and moving about. Walking isn't easy for me, but I need to walk for a few minutes at a time each day. Before, I had health problems, walking was one of my favorite pastimes. I could walk for miles literally and not have any issues. I miss walking like that and exploring nature in the great outdoors.

    I hope everyone has a great weekend.

    Marie, 😃

    Awesome loss!

    You don’t mind running in the heat? I guess it was cooler in the morning.

    PW: 145.6 pounds (up 0.7 pounds) (I didn't post this last week as although I weighed myself twice on Saturday I remembered after midnight that I hadn't posted my weigh in and I was too tired then to go online as I was going to bed and by Monday I would've missed the weekly cut off of Sunday night) (@lindamtuck2018 this weigh in will need to be added to the chart)
    CW: 144.6 pounds (down 1 pound)

    Nice loss! Even if it’s a few days late, post your weight. It’s just marked late in the sheet.

    Steps: 4,051
    Log food: ✔️
    Exercise: 5/4

    Last week, I did great on exercise, steps and logging but not so great on the scale. Off to a new week and hopefully I can to good in all areas. We are off to take my oldest granddaughter out to breakfast. Then we are heading to our sons to drop off his card and birthday present. I don’t think I will get to the pool today.

    Have a super Sunday!

    It’s funny, I picked my Friday weigh day years ago during my weight watchers days. Myself and my friend picked it because we tended to be less careful on the weekend. That’s when we ate our banked points. Sushi always makes me have a weight gain.

    Haha I remember those WW days. The company I use to work for offered WW at work during lunch and we would have meetings every Thursday in the cafeteria. Nothing keeps you making great choices all week like weighing in front of your coworkers lol I would eat “perfect” Sunday night until Friday morning then eat all my banked points and then some Friday night to Sunday morning. It worked at the time and I lost weight each week but it still fueled the binge mentality for me. None of my coworkers now seem to be into eating healthier so it’s great to have this group for encouragement! Thank You!
