@lisalisa123 Your Mom's weigh-in is with a decimal on the spreadsheet.

@AustinRuadhain You're doing awesome and on top of everything!

I'm headed to my brother's for dinner, have a great night and awesome Sunday!

@Katmary71 We used to pick blackberries. My mom made the best cobbler! True Story: I was probably ten and riding my younger sister on the handlebars of my bike. We crashed, and my sister fell onto the ground while I fell into a huge blackberry bush with those painful thorns! Also, the bike had slammed between my legs, which caused some bleeding from you know where. A trip to the ER, and the doctor told my mom that I had probably broken my cherry! It's not something a ten-year-old wanted to learn about, I can tell you! I knew I had heard about the vagus nerve before and went looking. Fasting is a good way to stimulate and heal the vagus and parasympathetic nervous system. Interesting! The Cherry Festival and blueberry pancakes sound like a great time!

@AustinRuadhain, I told Joe that we would look up Band of Brothers when we were done with Bridgeton. I'll let you know! We have to wait an ungodly amount of time for our doctor, too. But when she comes in, she is so wonderful that we forgive her and get all the attention we need. Yay, on your new virtual badge! Beachbody gives us badges, too. Bling is bling!! I love that lady! What an inspiration.


Good morning! It was fun having the girls over last night. My mom bought us all McDonalds (or Happy Donalds as we call it around here), so it's not the best choice or taste, but it's fine. Today is my rest day from working out, and I plan to fast a little extra. I also did a thing two days ago. I signed up for a course called (dis)Comfort Zone Workshop. I stumbled upon a video by the creator, Jason Seib, and what he said resonated with me so much that I bought his $37 program. I figure what do I have to lose, except extra weight and self-loathing! Here is the link if you want a clearer explanation. https://www.jasonseib.com/

Quick check in
I'm afraid these hockey playoffs are not helpful. Pizza and chips seem to be the food of choice- my grandkids are sure happy 😆.
I am going to an Agility match this afternoon. This is the first time I have been to a match since I have my medication straightened out, I am trying to not stress. I tried to do a couple of matches before and it was too much for my ADHD brain. I thought I was having panic attacks. I understand now it was because my brain took in everything without discrimination, there was no ability to focus. I am super lucky, my coaches have been so supportive and could see when I would start to shut down and really broke things down for me. Today the one running it knows I don't want any scores or anything called we are just going to have some fun with no pressure at all, I will let you know how it goes☺️

@TeresaW2024 I think so! LOL That's a good length of time. I'm so glad to hear about your wrist. You should make an appt! I love feeling sore from lifting weights. Good job! That's funny about the 4 yr old. I'm glad you had fun with the kids. I hope you get something out of the workshop (and share a bit about what you get out of it!).

@Katmary71 It is really good. Yeah what I do at the cafe is a compromise. It works! Mammogram went well, thanks. I did know that it was Prince's birthday! The estate had a party at Paisley Park. If I didn't dislike what the estate was doing, I would love to go lol (I dislike that they are really selling him out after his death...he would hate everything they are doing). That's funny (but would be embarrassing!) about your pants. The donation went fine, I was really worried about it but they did single platelets vs double or triple (triple takes 2 hours! The single only took 35 mins). I felt okay enough to walk around the mall afterward. I was pretty tired though. Cherry Festival...that sounds fun!

@AustinRuadhain It did go bearably...that's a good way to put it. I am also looking forward to switching up clothes! 5 mins, wow, that's really low. I'm glad your blood panels are normal. Sounds like everything went ok, good. Good job with the exercise! Get that bling! OH that lady is amazing, I follow her on Instagram, she is something else!

@laurelfit57 Social situations are so hard. I hope the agility match goes well.

@19shmoo69 Congrats on the loss!

@txcritter69 Thank you!

Hi all. I'm doing really well. The zoo was nice, although we only stayed an hour (it was getting busy). We went for breakfast/coffee afterward and I got salad with my breakfast panini so I count that as a win. We went to two malls and walked around (my husband hates the mall, so I count this as a personal victory lol). I ended up with over 10,000 steps for the day. I was really tired but made dinner anyway: salmon with salad and roasted sweet potatoes. This morning, In my bariatric group, I committed to 15 mins of intentional movement 3 times a week for a "Spring Into Summer" challenge (it actually started in May, so I'm really late to the challenge but I figure I can go at my own pace even after it ends). I scheduled to go walk at the lake this morning with my dog. I want to go before the sun comes out so my dog doesn't overheat.

😞. There were some poor salty choices made over the last few days. Let’s hope it’s gone by next week.

@TeresaW2024 Ouch you must've been hurting bad then getting a “cherry” lecture would be mortifying! I had a neighbor poke me with a broom in the thigh and he was screaming that he'd gotten rid of mine, I had no clue what he was talking about but knew it was bad so I punched him and he fell then ran in the house crying and his twin ran up to hit me and I pushed him in the street and he followed his brother crying inside. Their Mom came out yelling she was walking me home to talk to my mom about beating up the twins and when I said they were telling everyone they popped my cherry she turned around and followed them in the house without saying anything. I think we've swapped these stories before I'm having deja vu! With CRPS being a malfunctioning of the autonomic nervous system learning how to stimulate the vagus nerve has been very helpful. Glad you had fun with the girls!

@laurelfit57 Games are a tough one for food! I'm glad the coaches have been so supportive at the agility match. Hope no scores helps with the stress.

@micaroo4 I hope there's a break in the rain, sounds like you got some good workout time in.

@txcritter69 Did it end up being a good trip? I hope so!

@trooworld True I don't think Prince would be thrilled either with how he stood up to studios and wanted to honor music with how things are going. WOW I didn't know that, I've only done regular donations. You're the Queen of walking today go you! The bariatic group sounds fun is it local or online?

@annachangesagain I got it, it came in after I had posted weigh-in info but when I went back to reply to everything I logged it. Thanks for checking!

@sleepygirl79 Crazy how much salty causes us to retain water, I have to take all my rings off within an hour of eating it or they're stuck on my fingers.

Hi team! I wouldn't exactly call today a cherry festival at the farm we went to but it was fun, there was a bunch of products for sale and I got an apple turnover that was real good and some cherry sangria. I had a teen run in between me and my friend when we were getting in line for doughnuts and she got in my face when I went to go around her. I ended up getting screamed at about being entitled when I just wanted to lean on the wall near my friend as I didn't bring my walker but no one was actually going to listen or cared for the truth so I ignored them (learning I don't need to fight everyone). Got cherries too of course. I need to go get my prescriptions and Walmart order, have a great Sunday!

Oh goodness, it’s been a long time since my last check in. I’ll enter my weigh in tomorrow morning. This week got away from me.

June is always insane in school. We have 3 weeks of classes left and it sort of feels like skiing downhill on an ever steeper slope. I’m pretty sure I’ll blink and it will be July.

I’m struggling a bit with my eating the past couple weeks. I’m frustrated that I can undo a month’s worth of hard work in just a few days. So, like I’ve done many times before I will commit to getting back on track.

I’ll see you in the morning!

Hi everyone,

I've been meaning to check in, but I've been so tired. I traded in the ab challenge for a shovel for a couple of days, I'm definitely not used to that kind of work. I was so tired and sore that I was just passing out after I ate some, not so good for me, food. Today, I went for a little hike up to a waterfall with my daughter and a couple of her friends. Their kids and 3 fur babes. I didn't take mine and I'm kind of glad I didn't. It was about a 3-mile walk (hike) round trip. Going up hill was definitely hard for me, but I made it. Afterwards, we went to Dairy Queen. I had chicken strips and a blizzard, I gave my rootbeer and french fries to the kids. Tomorrow our weather is supposed to cool back down to the lower 70's, I'm so thankful for that. I hate the heat.

I got my new watch and I'm loving it. Those who have Garmin watches, my name is either AnnaDrews or DrewsAnna, send me a connection request. I have one.

@AustinRuadhain I traded in the ab challenge for a shovel for a couple days. I'm done putting beauty bark in my gardens so I'm done with that shovel for now. I restart the ab challenge tomorrow. I accepted your connection request, I looked at your newsfeed, girl you exercise a lot. You are definitely doing great.

@TeresaW2024 That was a cute story about your niece feed her baby brother ice cream. It reminded when my two oldest were babes, the oldest alway wanted to help with her baby brother. One morning I woke up to butter and Captain Crunch cereal all over the crib, the wall around the crib, (thank goodness I had floors and not carpet in that bedroom.) She said, "Mom, he was hungry". Lol.... It took forever to clean up that mess.

Y'all have a great rest of your evening, TTYL...

No more pity party. Time to smarten up.

Here’s the stupid thing: I know I’ve eaten terribly the past week or two. And my body is screaming at me! I’ve had headaches, my feet hurt? My bra is too tight. My food makes such a big difference in my daily quality of life. I can’t keep making these poor choices.

Onward and upward, my friends!

Baby time! Hopefully by midnight tonight!
