8/13 - DNW - I did weigh but apparently my phone and scale didn't sync when I thought it had so I have no idea. I had a very whiny puppy who needed outside so I wasn't as thorough as I normally am. Oh well. I was up and I know that. Expected. We finished building the entire fence yesterday. 8am until about 5pm outside in the Texas heat doing manual labor. All that's left is cut the tops of the posts flush and find/build a gate for the front walkway. Nobody uses it so we'll put something up temporarily to keep the cows out. Despite my water intake, I know I'm dehydrated. In addition, we had wings for dinner and for some reason, wings always make me bloat and hold on to water. I logged everything I remember putting in my body to the best of my knowledge on portion sizes and I was still under due to the work. I'm not worried. I do wish I could have an accurate reading before traveling, but that isn't likely to happen so I simply must be extra cautious the rest of this week instead. I have several days of posts to catch up on and hopefully today is quiet enough to do so.

Previous Day's Comments8/10 - TOM came out of nowhere unexpectedly and quick. I'm very hormone-puffy type bloated and crampy this morning. I'm also still sore from Monday and now yesterday's kettlebell strength workout so I imagine I'm holding on to water there, as well. I wonder if the stress of this week threw my body out of whack a bit. Likely so. I ate normally yesterday, hit right about my normal amount. Had 8 calories remaining according to MFP which is good. Today I have my meals planned out, including breakfast should I need to eat before lunch. BF is dealing with severe dizziness and we are waiting on a call back from the doc to see if he can get in. If it keeps on like this, I'm taking him to the ER. It's beginning to get scary (at first we thought it was a side effect from some medication he was taking for infection but it should've started wearing off after a week and his symptoms are only getting worse so we're trying to monitor things. He's the type of guy who will avoid the doctor unless he's dying so the fact that he reached out to get seen and is contemplating ER, it's bad... I know I'm being needy between Smoke and now BF, but I'm wondering if these things are connected and it is NOT a fun situation to watch from the sidelines. I'm hoping he can get seen/go to ER before I travel next week - my newest concern)
8/11 - Technically I did weigh, but in my zombie-brain last night, I left my phone on the couch overnight, didn't charge it, and it was too far away for my scale to sync and upload my weigh in. And I don't remember what it came up as. Oops! I do remember still seeing 153 pop up at some point while it was settling so I'm not dropping anything. I'm not entirely sure what is going on with this bloat. Usually any hormonal bloat will drop off as soon as TOM starts but I didn't even start bloating until it did. Hopefully it won't last too long and I can get back down before I travel. This is uncomfortable and confusing. Homemade, 100% from scratch chicken pot pie for dinner so I'm determined to eat my last serving of chickpea and veg curry for lunch as it's light and low calorie to make up for the extra large portion I'm undoubtedly going to serve myself of potpie tonight. I already completed my kettlebell strength and I'm about to go walk the pups. It's my day off so errands (post office, groceries) and baking!
8/12 - Alright, I've got a bit of a drop and I'm happy. I'm still very sore in my legs so I know I'm holding on to water there. My tummy doesn't look so bloated now so I think the hormonal stuff is what dropped off now TOM is over. Whew. BF got mad about needing to replace another sprinkler head (this is the second time replacing this specific one) because of cows in our front yard. He went ahead and had the extra money to buy the wood and rent a post digger yesterday. Digger due back today so we are drinking coffee and then heading out to beat the worst of the heat to get the holes dug and posts set with concrete today so the concrete can set overnight. My pot pie went really well and tasted delicious last night. I have 2 slices leftover, one of which I'll surely have for lunch today. Maybe the other for tomorrow? Not sure on dinner as we only planned one dinner home this weekend - we assumed we'd go have dinner with Fam one night this weekend as we usually do. Now I'm unsure with the fence thing. We've got enough in the freezer to make something up, though, I'm sure.

I started my βwunningβ program yesterday. Starting slowly with 3 minutes walking, 30 seconds running (ok, jogging), for 30 minutes. The short runs were easy, but did get my heart rate up, and I donβt want to overdo it and discourage myself. I went for another half-hour walk with the pup last night. Iβm off in a few min for my morning βwun.β I have to say, though, that my weigh-ins are discouraging lately. Losing weight at 70 is no picnic!
8/11 - 185.2, 1417
Aww, come on. I did a 35 min interval βwunβ yesterday and another dog walk in the evening, plus some gardening, and calories were controlled. I do think Iβm retaining waterβmy legs are swollen after my wuns. Iβm drinking tons of water and hoping for a whoosh soon.
8-12 - 185.2, 1237
Jeesh. So discouraging. Plus my knee hurts and Iβm achy all over, I hate my hair, my skin looks blotchy and flaky, and I have nothing decent to wear that I can get into. (Just doing a grump dump!) I think Iβll skip the long walk this morning to let me knee recover, and go take out my hostilities by deadheading flowers. I hope your weekend is going better than that! π
8/13 - 184.6, 1615
Good morning. Iβm feeling slightly better, although Iβm still achy and my knee feels swollen and tight. I think I need help with some of this so tomorrow Iβm going to schedule a doctor visit. Iβm due anyway for my annual checkup. Iβve lapsed on taking collagen, so am getting back with that routineβhelps my hair and skin, which is very dry and itchy. I have a very strong urge to cozy up the house, but no idea what and how at the moment. Browsing images online. I also have a serious urge to do some decluttering, although we donβt actually have much superfluous stuff after all the moving around we did for a decade. Weird, huh? Itβs as if I need to open up space for something new. I did toss out about 15 years of journals last weekβI knew I would never reread them, and I donβt want anyone else reading them if/when I die, so out they went. It gave me pause, but I threw them in the recycle bin just as the truck turned onto our street, and poof! they were gone, and I felt good about it. Now to start a new one. So thatβs me strange tale for today! I do think these things are all tied to stupid eating. Have a great Sunday!

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Donβt stay away, stay accountable. We donβt judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
People say keto/LCHF isnβt sustainable. Iβve been doing it for over 6 years with amazing results!
This is NOT A DIET. Itβs a LIFESTYLE.

SW Round 232 128.5
8/10 129.0 Had 4 oz brisket and did my best to rinse off that sweet sauce but it was still there. I had a no sugar whisky sour at home.
8/11 128.5 Good day yesterday. Under on all macros except fat - 7 over on that but fat satisfies. Wanted evening snack - had 1T peanut butter - the brand I have is all natural and the oil separates. I scooped out some of the pb and let the oil drip back into the jar.
8/12 128.0 Leftover pot roast and ate a few chunks of white potato and slices of carrot.
8/13 129.0 Totally okay with this. We went out to eat at a nearby Mexican restaurant. I had chips and a chimichanga and I ate the whole thing. Today, Great Greek. Iβm going to change my order and get chicken instead of beef! π±π±π±5 -

Round 232
MY NAME IS DONNA. I AM 63 YEARS YOUNG & FROM THE MIDWEST USA. I AM APPROX 5β 5β TALL.
ROUND 189 FOR ME.
βTodayβ¦.I am choosing Meβ
MY STATS:
Highest weight ever (05-10-2016): 253
Original starting weight on MFP: (01-11-2018) 235.0
R231 EW= 194.6
R232 EW= TBD
Current New Goals:
Weight:
Short Term Goal: To weigh less at the end of this round than I did at the end of the last round.
Final goal: 145-155. Weβll see how I look & feel when I get there.
Exercise: Move 30 minutes per day rotating activity.
Mini challenge: My monthly goal is always about 4 pounds per month. HOWEVER, I never seem to make that. I will continue to keep that goal because it Should Be achievable (even though it is not for me) but never say never, right? So, Between Independence Day Holiday (July 4th) and Labor Day Holiday (Sept 4th) I will weigh somewhere, ANYWHERE in the 180βs. I donβt care if itβs on the brim. Iβve got to start getting further away from the 200βs again! Starting Weight on 7/4 is 195.4.
COLOR CODE: Fuchsia is a Happy Weight Loss for me. Blue is a sad weight gain.Black is no change.

08/10 -195.2- (Trend weight 195.6)
08/11 - 193.8- (Trend weight 195.5)
08/12 -192.6- (Trend weight 195.2) Handyman was very nice and seems like heβs going to work out. So far, so good. He also has resources for what he is not licensed or knowledgeable in. Happy camper here! Stuck to my guns on the diet front, got in a few minutes of strength training and got in 32 minutes of dancing. I pick very random songs that have the right βbeatβ. A bit slower for the warm-up and cool-down. A little more challenging ones in the middle of my set. One song I chose as a bit of a warm-up was βCry to meβ by Solomon Burke. It was one of the songs in the movie βDirty Dancingβ. Aw Come On, give it a try!
08/13 -194.2- (Trend weight 195.1) Well I guess a year has gone by very quickly. I got a call from my childhood best friend that she is on her annual vacay back to Michigan to visit family and friends. I have (since growing up) moved about 3 Β½ hours north so we are coordinating when she can come stay a night or two. She understands the renovations that have just begun and that I canβt leave. Soβ¦.. the self-sabotage has begun. I did not eat well yesterday but I did make sure that I offset my stupidity with some HIIT in my workout. Why canβt I just be good to myself? My trend weight still went down a bit so Iβm hoping the upward change is just water retention. Weβll see.

65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 231 (my 162nd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
Goal this round is to get back under and stay under 138. Holiday is now in 31 days, I still need to crack on & lose a few more pounds, starting to get back into some holiday clothes, but can't let up: time is running out! So, 31 days, 3 rounds at a pound per round should easily get me to where I want to be, only I can do it, Iβve done it before so I can do it again if I knuckle down!! Really try to stay on track & do another complete round without binging. After all I am what I eat in more ways than one, my whole demeanour is totally different when I am happy with myself!!Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, itβs taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

SW Round 232 138.8
8/10 138.8 - 13.92 miles walked, we went in the opposite direction to Chatsworth Estate, up behind the house, along the ridge & back down through the woods, a third of exercise calories eaten back.
8/11 139 - had 2 little DGDs yesterday for the day, youngest is getting over chicken pox so restricted where we could take them; picked raspberries then took a picnic up into the Darbyshire Dales, managed a very slow 4 miles in total, ate more than exercise calories.
8/12 138.8 - moved caravan over to Retford in Notts, a beautiful little site on the banks of a stream and every pitch has a staging over the stream with a picnic table in it. Managed 5.26 mile walk around village, 100 calories over.
8/13 139.2 β spent the day at Bolsover Castle, it has the oldest indoor riding school still open and in use in the UK; we had tickets to see a manΓ¨ge display on how William Cavendish used to train his horses before he went into battle in the mid 1600βs, so fascinating, we then went on a guided tour of the outside of the castle before wandering around the inside ourselves, just manage to rack up 3.87 miles, but they were not at a good pace, just a bimble! Just read my post from yesterday β spellchecker changed a few of the words, looks like I was drunk when I wrote it!!

I started my βwunningβ program yesterday. Starting slowly with 3 minutes walking, 30 seconds running (ok, jogging), for 30 minutes. The short runs were easy, but did get my heart rate up, and I donβt want to overdo it and discourage myself. I went for another half-hour walk with the pup last night. Iβm off in a few min for my morning βwun.β I have to say, though, that my weigh-ins are discouraging lately. Losing weight at 70 is no picnic!
8/11 - 185.2, 1417
Aww, come on. I did a 35 min interval βwunβ yesterday and another dog walk in the evening, plus some gardening, and calories were controlled. I do think Iβm retaining waterβmy legs are swollen after my wuns. Iβm drinking tons of water and hoping for a whoosh soon.
8-12 - 185.2, 1237
Jeesh. So discouraging. Plus my knee hurts and Iβm achy all over, I hate my hair, my skin looks blotchy and flaky, and I have nothing decent to wear that I can get into. (Just doing a grump dump!) I think Iβll skip the long walk this morning to let me knee recover, and go take out my hostilities by deadheading flowers. I hope your weekend is going better than that! π
8/13 - 184.6, 1615
Good morning. Iβm feeling slightly better, although Iβm still achy and my knee feels swollen and tight. I think I need help with some of this so tomorrow Iβm going to schedule a doctor visit. Iβm due anyway for my annual checkup. Iβve lapsed on taking collagen, so am getting back with that routineβhelps my hair and skin, which is very dry and itchy. I have a very strong urge to cozy up the house, but no idea what and how at the moment. Browsing images online. I also have a serious urge to do some decluttering, although we donβt actually have much superfluous stuff after all the moving around we did for a decade. Weird, huh? Itβs as if I need to open up space for something new. I did toss out about 15 years of journals last weekβI knew I would never reread them, and I donβt want anyone else reading them if/when I die, so out they went. It gave me pause, but I threw them in the recycle bin just as the truck turned onto our street, and poof! they were gone, and I felt good about it. Now to start a new one. So thatβs me strange tale for today! I do think these things are all tied to stupid eating. Have a great Sunday!

I've been dealing with a lot of overwhelm and stress, so I knew I'd act up around food (hello maladaptive coping). I'm not taking the weight gain well.5 -
Yes, another round!
Jen; 46; 5'4"
About Me:This is my fourth round and really appreciated having someplace to stay accountable.
Thanks to a medication I'm on for my mental health and an overeating habit, I managed to gain a lot of weight in the last year or so. On July 4, I stepped on the scale for the first time since I started the med (that is known to cause weight gain) and decided enough was enough. I buckled down and started actually recording my food for the first time in over five years and started walking every day. Now I need motivation to keep going. So far I've been doing great despite a lot of stress in my life. I had one "cheat" day on my son's 13th birthday because I made homemade pizza and enjoyed three slices of it. I have felt no need to "cheat" since then which makes me very happy. I keep telling myself I'll eat a bag of chips when I get to X weight, but that weight comes, and I feel no need to eat the chips and want to continue eating healthy to lose more weight. Amazing for a carb junkie.

8/10 - 265.8 - 3.04 miles - I had planned to work in the yard laying more mulch and shoveling rocks, but as I got close to home after my walk, I started feeling really queasy. I'm not sure if it was the heat (it was only in the mid-70s) or something else, but I decided to just go inside and rest instead. This weekend is supposed to be super hot so I'm not sure how much I can get done. The plan is to get to bed early today so I get up early tomorrow and get out for my walk in the early morning so I'm working in the yard before the heat sets in. We'll see how that goes.
8/11 - 264.8 - 2.37 miles - Worked for an hour in the yard shoveling rocks again and finished laying mulch on that side of the yard (YAY!). Then went on an hour walk when it started getting really hot. Didn't feel very well after that but it passed eventually. Then I spent 2.5 hours making homemade pizzas for the family so today was a cheat day. Last one was July 14 when I made pizza for my son's birthday. It tasted so good. Wish I could have more but I came in under my goal (barely and that's just an estimate). I'll make it up in the next couple of days so it's not a big deal.
8/12 - 264.2 - 3.29 miles - Went over on my calories today because I just couldn't resist having pizza for breakfast this morning (what is even the point if you don't eat it cold the next morning?). But I'll make it up in the next couple days--it's not the end of the world. I didn't do any yard work either because of the heat. I did go on an extra long walk by exploring some culdesacs along the route that I don't usually go down. We are now under a severe heat advisory or warning (can't remember which). It's supposed to be nearly 100F tomorrow so I doubt I do much and will get out for my walk really early. Same with Monday and Tuesday. Then my grandson is back so not sure what I'll do. Feeling good despite the stumbling with the pizza (I just cannot resist pizza; it's my favorite food).
8/13 - 268.2 - 3.06 miles - Four pounds! I'm not sure what to think about that. I made sure it was clean under the scale and reweighed myself. It didn't change. I'm not sure how eating 2 slices of pizza, half a sandwich, half a salad and a cup of pasta equals 4 pounds. According to my numbers I was only about 140 calories over my goal (not including exercise). Very strange, but not the end of the world. It just sets me back a few days I guess. I resisted eating any more of the pizza today and even passed on mac & cheese with dinner (had the burger and some fries, though). That gave me the space to have a Skinny Cow ice cream sandwich (man, I love those things). I also pretty much finished the mulching of the yard. I have one bag left and have laid 18 of them. I still need to pull up some grass growing where it doesn't belong but it's looking much better. Thankfully, I got it done before the heatwave hit (supposed to be in the 100s all week I think). And with that heat, I need to be in bed early to be up early to do my hour of walking before the heat sets in for the day. So, I'm off to bed now.

65 yr young F, 5ft 4 Round 231 (my 162nd). Thank you @quiltingjaine for the new round.
Goal this round is to get back under and stay under 138. Holiday is now in 31 days, I still need to crack on & lose a few more pounds, starting to get back into some holiday clothes, but can't let up: time is running out! So, 31 days, 3 rounds at a pound per round should easily get me to where I want to be, only I can do it, Iβve done it before so I can do it again if I knuckle down!! Really try to stay on track & do another complete round without binging. After all I am what I eat in more ways than one, my whole demeanour is totally different when I am happy with myself!!Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, itβs taken me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance!! But then I crept up again, so need to get back to around 134. A healthy lifestyle must be a permanent way of life.

8/9. 138.2 - 138.2, 11.54 miles walked, 165 floors, a third of exercise calories eaten back. Into Matlock, climbed up to and along the top of the gorge, down into Matlock Bath, had a coffee & then climbed up to the top and along the top of the other side before the return walk back. 1.6 pound down from end of last round, & no binge in
whole of the 10 days, very happy with this π.
SW Round 232 138.8
8/10 138.8 - 13.92 miles walked, we went in the opposite direction to Chatsworth Estate, up behind the house, along the ridge & back down through the woods, a third of exercise calories eaten back.
8/11 139 - had 2 little DGDs yesterday for the day, youngest is getting over chicken pox so restricted where we could take them; picked raspberries then took a picnic up into the Darbyshire Dales, managed a very slow 4 miles in total, ate more than exercise calories.
8/12 138.8 - moved caravan over to Retford in Notts, a beautiful little site on the banks of a stream and every pitch has a staging over the stream with a picnic table in it. Managed 5.26 mile walk around village, 100 calories over.
8/13 139.2 β spent the day at Bolsover Castle, it has the oldest indoor riding school still open and in use in the UK; we had tickets to see a manΓ¨ge display on how William Cavendish used to train his horses before he went into battle in the mid 1600βs, so fascinating, we then went on a guided tour of the outside of the castle before wandering around the inside ourselves, just manage to rack up 3.87 miles, but they were not at a good pace, just a bimble! Just read my post from yesterday β spellchecker changed a few of the words, looks like I was drunk when I wrote it!!
8/14 141.6???? Travelled back home, managed a 5.5 mile walk before we packed up and left, then after unpacking at home we hit the garden; dead heading, weeding and tidying after 10 days away, looks lovely again now, miles racked up to 7.45. Pizza night, hope this jump is due to sodium, 95 calories over.

Main two reasons for the gain:
1) My legs are really swollen (have poor circulation) in my body, which can cause swelling in my legs.
2) Bad choice of having pasta for dinner last night. Causes weight gain for me. Mostly I try to always eat low carb. Not just because high carb foods can cause weight gain; but, also they tend to raise my blood sugar. (I'm a type 2 diabetic.).
Had a weakness for some pasta last night (luckily, that doesn't happen very often) Hopefully, water weight will decrease in a day or two.

8/10 219 This is exactly where I started last round. The difference is that I know I am up because I had a hard yoga class yesterday & my muscles are sore (not because I ate cookies). I am very close to being my normal self again. Itβs a good thing because I have to work full time in September so now is the time to finish dealing with all of the mental stuff!
8/11 217.7. I feel like I will be making progress again. I said no to my familyβs request for takeout supper. I did some gardening & cleaning, took a walk & did yoga.I slept better last night & FIL is coming for a visit this weekend so I need to get our house cleaner than it is so I may skip yoga & just concentrate on cleaning & gardening today after my walk.

We have something almost every weekend but I really want to make some progress before my nieceβs wedding on September 16th. I am pretty sure I am in the right mood to do this. π€π»

8/14 - 152.8 - The pup was much more patient this morning so I could verify my weight was recorded. I'm quite happy with this number. I'm still very very sore and I'm sure not fully recovered from the slight dehydration Saturday so it's nice to see its still in my "maintenance range" of 152.9 or less. If I can maintain (or even lose) through tomorrow morning, I'll be right where I was hoping to be before travel. Then it's simply work to maintain to the best of my ability with airport food and eating out. Fortunately I was told this morning we don't have to be at the plant until 8am Wednesday morning which gives me time to get breakfast. I'll grab a couple extra things that will hold overnight for Thursday morning so I don't have to spend my own money at Walmart for a microwave breakfast. Whew! It's really nice to pre-plan things like this - I'm making the choices when I'm not stressed or in a hurry and I have my goals in the forefront of my mind. Chicken tikka masala with rice and naan tonight. Kettlebell workout and walk done. I'm set! One last day of routine healthy habits!

Previous Day's Comments8/10 - TOM came out of nowhere unexpectedly and quick. I'm very hormone-puffy type bloated and crampy this morning. I'm also still sore from Monday and now yesterday's kettlebell strength workout so I imagine I'm holding on to water there, as well. I wonder if the stress of this week threw my body out of whack a bit. Likely so. I ate normally yesterday, hit right about my normal amount. Had 8 calories remaining according to MFP which is good. Today I have my meals planned out, including breakfast should I need to eat before lunch. BF is dealing with severe dizziness and we are waiting on a call back from the doc to see if he can get in. If it keeps on like this, I'm taking him to the ER. It's beginning to get scary (at first we thought it was a side effect from some medication he was taking for infection but it should've started wearing off after a week and his symptoms are only getting worse so we're trying to monitor things. He's the type of guy who will avoid the doctor unless he's dying so the fact that he reached out to get seen and is contemplating ER, it's bad... I know I'm being needy between Smoke and now BF, but I'm wondering if these things are connected and it is NOT a fun situation to watch from the sidelines. I'm hoping he can get seen/go to ER before I travel next week - my newest concern)
8/11 - Technically I did weigh, but in my zombie-brain last night, I left my phone on the couch overnight, didn't charge it, and it was too far away for my scale to sync and upload my weigh in. And I don't remember what it came up as. Oops! I do remember still seeing 153 pop up at some point while it was settling so I'm not dropping anything. I'm not entirely sure what is going on with this bloat. Usually any hormonal bloat will drop off as soon as TOM starts but I didn't even start bloating until it did. Hopefully it won't last too long and I can get back down before I travel. This is uncomfortable and confusing. Homemade, 100% from scratch chicken pot pie for dinner so I'm determined to eat my last serving of chickpea and veg curry for lunch as it's light and low calorie to make up for the extra large portion I'm undoubtedly going to serve myself of potpie tonight. I already completed my kettlebell strength and I'm about to go walk the pups. It's my day off so errands (post office, groceries) and baking!
8/12 - Alright, I've got a bit of a drop and I'm happy. I'm still very sore in my legs so I know I'm holding on to water there. My tummy doesn't look so bloated now so I think the hormonal stuff is what dropped off now TOM is over. Whew. BF got mad about needing to replace another sprinkler head (this is the second time replacing this specific one) because of cows in our front yard. He went ahead and had the extra money to buy the wood and rent a post digger yesterday. Digger due back today so we are drinking coffee and then heading out to beat the worst of the heat to get the holes dug and posts set with concrete today so the concrete can set overnight. My pot pie went really well and tasted delicious last night. I have 2 slices leftover, one of which I'll surely have for lunch today. Maybe the other for tomorrow? Not sure on dinner as we only planned one dinner home this weekend - we assumed we'd go have dinner with Fam one night this weekend as we usually do. Now I'm unsure with the fence thing. We've got enough in the freezer to make something up, though, I'm sure.
8/13 - I did weigh but apparently my phone and scale didn't sync when I thought it had so I have no idea. I had a very whiny puppy who needed outside so I wasn't as thorough as I normally am. Oh well. I was up and I know that. Expected. We finished building the entire fence yesterday. 8am until about 5pm outside in the Texas heat doing manual labor. All that's left is cut the tops of the posts flush and find/build a gate for the front walkway. Nobody uses it so we'll put something up temporarily to keep the cows out. Despite my water intake, I know I'm dehydrated. In addition, we had wings for dinner and for some reason, wings always make me bloat and hold on to water. I logged everything I remember putting in my body to the best of my knowledge on portion sizes and I was still under due to the work. I'm not worried. I do wish I could have an accurate reading before traveling, but that isn't likely to happen so I simply must be extra cautious the rest of this week instead. I have several days of posts to catch up on and hopefully today is quiet enough to do so.
