@baodell17724 Not how you'd prefer to lose it but wtg! Are you feeling any better?

@trooworld LOL funny mixture of a friend group who definitely would NOT make dinner fun! Definitely enjoy the pasta while you can! The band was good, I went from 8-9 and was in bed by 9:30. Wow congratulations on selling the walking pad so fast! I love who it's going to that's definitely going to good use with her. That's fascinating about the medication I'm glad your doctor has a way to counter it's effects. It's frightening to think of medications causing issues like that. On a funny note I was thinking of who'd I invite if I threw a Friendsgiving and it would be very close to what you would deal with plus two neighbors who don't like each other to make it spicy! I just went to one for the first time last year, one of the women on the board of the charity made soup the night after Thanksgiving and had a bunch of friends over which was fun. I'm flattered I'm being included I didn't really have close friends during my bedridden years.

@Digger61 How are you doing?

Hi friends! The cleanup today went well, we worked for 4-5 hours. I pulled a lot of weeds then worked on a woman's beds who has long-haul COVID and has trouble getting there these days and cleaned out both her beds, harvested all the dry flower heads, made a big bouquet of flowers for her with her flowers, then got all the veggies together (butternut squash, tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers). It made me happy knowing it would brighten her day. A few farm friends came and helped (including my crush) and are interested in getting beds now. The garden club bought two beds and the vice president was there and helped out. I came home, took a bath, and just woke up and cleaned the kitchen and came on here. Tomorrow I have a lot of work to get done it's going to be a long day. Have a great Sunday team!

@trooworld That is nice that you sold your walking pad to someone who can use it. Wow, that is wild that a medication can cause your shopping addiction. It's a bummer that I can’t use that as an excuse. My niece told me last week, as I was giving her some lamps to sell on Facebook Marketplace, that I must like to buy stuff just so I can give it away and buy new. I admit that it can look that way at times. Maggie is good, but I can’t keep her from jumping on and off the sofa. I bought a long bench cushion that is 3 inches thick to lay on the floor and give her a soft place to land when she gets off the couch. It works well when she isn’t jumping over the whole cushion.

@Kamary71 That is so nice of you to help that woman out with her garden. I bet that dried flower bouquet was beautiful. Ohhh I had forgotten about the crush! How often do you get to see him?

@micaroo4 I hope you and Rich have a great time and that you hunt down something awesome.

@Cornanda Thank you! Decorating is fun and even better when the mess is cleaned up. Awe poor Gus and poor you having to clean him up. I’m glad you had fun with your DD.


Good morning! Well, today is our Thanksgiving potluck at the church. I’m making two turkey breasts and some doctored-up stovetop stuffing. I also bought apple and pecan pies. We will go to church, and right afterward, some ladies will finish decorating the room before going home and cooking for the evening. I haven’t worked out all week, but I plan to get back to it starting tomorrow and get my eating back under control. We ate pizza last night because my four-year-old niece asked me to buy her pineapple pizza, and I didn’t say no to that girl.

Bah!

We went to a store called The Christmas Loft, and discovered that the real Santa Claus was paying a visit. 🎅 I took a picture of Rich with Santa, but it's on Rich's phone. I have to wait for him to share it.

I didn't buy anything. Rich bought some gifts, some food, and some decorations.

We went to a few other stores, but I was all shopped out after the first one.

@micaroo4 I hope you surprise yourself and have fun shopping today. Woohoo you're doing awesome with your steps! Let's see that Santa pic!

@Cornanda hm are you able to do the routine without the step? Didn't you get better shoes awhile ago? I'd hope it would be as easy as new shoes. If it's the actual step I'd look at shoes, how you're stepping in case it's a postural issues, and possibly having too hard of a step like maybe a rubbery top would help? Just throwing out ideas I know it's real frustrating. Thanks! Oh no poor Gus and poor you in having to clean the mess up!

@TeresaW2024 Thanks! Have a great potluck today that sounds fun!

@trooworld Oh no I'm sorry the walking pad woman changed her mind. Thanks! Yum that chili sounds delicious!

@DrewsAnna Do you mean Wednedays are your chosen day for weighing? What is Wegovy Wednesday? Your dinner looks delicious yum! Beautiful photos loved them.

Hi team! Boy it's chilly around here, I think it was down to 38 last night. I got some work done, took my trash to the curb, scrubbed the cat's litter boxes, and pulled out and replaced a rosemary bush then got inside to stay warm. I have a lot of cleaning to do and really would rather nap than do Board Minutes today! Maybe my goal will just be half the board minutes plus a nap. I'm liking that idea! Have a great night and happy Monday.

@morenin I'm sorry so much is going on. Are you staying fairly low carb as far as your blood sugar goes? Could you have lost enough that your A1C is lower? Hypoglycemia sucks and is super frustrating when trying to lose as you HAVE to eat something. Good call on the appointments to get yourself back on track, way to go on being proactive!

@trooworld I haven't heard of that chili sounds fascinating! My neighbor is from Colorado and makes a Colorado chili, I was thinking it would be similar but hers is more with chiles and peppers. You're probably getting hit with this storm coming up too, it's going to be freezing tonight I currently have no extra sheets or blankets in the house as they're on plants! Hopefully it won't be freezing and raining at the same time as I'll have to bring them in before it rains later in the week.

@micaroo4 Is Cathy the sister Rich just met? You can definitely see the resemblance! Love the photo how fun!

GO MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLES IN 3rd Place! @sleepygirl79 @baodell17724 @Jactop you are doing amazing top winners!

Hi team! I didn't have to work today and ended up just hanging around the house, stayed home from Bible Study too. I'm feeling worn out I'm going to try taking less Ashwaganda in case it's the higher dose doing it to me. Not much else going on I need to do some of the Board minutes tonight. Have a great Tuesday!

@Katmary71 - yes, Cathy is one of the sisters he met last year when he started seeking DNA relatives. She's the one he's become closest with - and more than any physical resemblance, their personalities are very much alike!
