@DrewsAnna I’m so happy to read that you are home! 🙂
@vegan4lyfe2012 I hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day with your family! It’s great that you are all so close. New nails is exciting!! 😃
@trooworld I hope the traffic to the airport isn’t too bad and that your DH’s plane arrives on time. Joining a gym is great, especially if you do it together. Bare bones are fine as long as you can get a good workout. Congrats on your 2.6 lb. loss! That is awesome!! 🤩
Good morning! It’s been a rough couple of days. Joe caught a stomach bug, and my caregiving skills have been pushed to new limits. He can’t do anything for himself anymore, which makes being sick so much harder on us both. But, I think we are on the mend and had a much better night. Home Depot is delivering 10 bags of mulch today, and I need to spread that around the front bushes. I don’t usually do my yard work, but I can do this since we only need the beds freshened up and my landscaper charges a fortune to do mulch. Have a good day! 🙂1 -

While I know hummingbirds are territorial I did not know they become violent. This bird was literally knocked to the ground in extreme fashion. Asked my wife to get it and they were friends for about an hour and it got fed really good and released.

Hi 👋
I've been nursing knee pain. When I was in the hospital I forgot about it because I wasn't really moving around. The firstt day I was home, I cleaned up the front yard garden and I've been nursing the knee pain ever since.
It's going to be a beautiful day today. I can't wait to get outside and enjoy it a little.
Y'all have a great day 😀

WEIGH IN UPDATE
WEIGH INS DUE TODAY FROM @digger61
Reminder TO WEigh In Tomorrow To @19shmoo69 @sleepygirl79 @txcritter69Hi friends! Have a wonderful weekend, I'm trying to finish setting up my garden this weekend though it was a bust today with the trellis (an 18 ft fence with bamboo poles and one person with a billion fabric bags with plants was a hot mess, lost two tomatoes pulling out trellises and forgetting they were tied to them. I went to the cat rescue group I'm going to be volunteering with and hung out for a bit, I'm excited to be called to get kitties!
@bobboyardee Way to go on a week of no snacking you're kickin butt!
@trooworld OMG I'm so sorry to hear of how you were lost at the airport, huge hug to you that sounds like a nightmare! Not sure if you remember but late last year I got lost at the Kaiser when I went to pick my friend up from her colonoscopy, it took me 90 minutes to find my car and I felt so bad that she was waiting for me (and later found out she had cancer so felt even worse!). Airports are so easy to get confused at too.

@TeresaW2024 - I'm sorry to hear Joe was sick. Sending you hugs because being a caregiver is not easy.
@DrewsAnna - glad to hear you got sprung from the hospital, and hoping your knee feels better soon.
@trooworld - Oh my goodness- the airport pick up sounds like a nightmare. I hate when my husband is gone too. A lot, I hate it. I'm glad you are sleeping better. You are doing so great with your weight loss!
@19shmoo69 - Wow- cool pix- Never seen a hummingbird that close, and I have a feeder for them. Thanks for sharing!
@bobboyardee - Congrats on completing 7 days! That must feel awesome! Keep up the good work!
@Katmary71 - Love that your weekend plans include gardening. Did I miss what you will be doing at the kitty rescue? Sounds like just the thing for you!
I've been off since Thursday at noon. Enjoying a good balance of relaxing and getting some projects done. It's been terrific and has reminded me of the importance of taking some time for myself. Today's plan is a family cook out. Tomorrow I am hoping to finally get some plants for my outdoor pots. It's been beastly hot here in Florida, but nice and cool in the morning, so DH and I are getting some long walks in. This morning, we saw two groups of deer and each had a tiny fawn.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

I am this close (.4 lbs) to the weight I was when signing up for MFP back in Sept '14. Every morning I do a happy dance after stepping on the scale. This is really happening.

I’m not sure how this happened! Wasn’t even that bad this week!3 -
@Cornanda that little fella was attacked by another hummingbird that had claimed the territory. It was knocked to ground and then attacked again. My wife is great with animals, total opposite of me, so I asked her to get it and see what could be done. We brought the feeder inside and she held it and fed it for about an hour. The feeder was kept inside so we could safely release the hummingbird without it being attacked again.

Hey everyone! Just a quick check-in to let you all know that Joe is back in the hospital. He was feeling really bad last night and was super bloated and in pain. They gave him a CT scan and said he has Colitis and another UTI. The doctor wanted him admitted and to be given IV antibiotics. So, I spent the whole day in the hospital, and I will be there at least most of the day tomorrow and maybe Tuesday. I came home just a while ago and hate leaving him so much, but there is no way my body could spend the night in that place. He was bugging me to go home to Maggie, and I will be back up early tomorrow. I'll be back when I can! 🤨
@trooworld, your airport pick-up sounded like a freaking nightmare. I can only imagine how stressed you were. I'm glad you are sleeping better. 🙂

@txcritter69 - Congrats! That must feel awesome!

@trooworld - I see you just posted, hopefully you will catch this tomorrow. Where do you save your recipes? I have some sites I use. Right now, I'd like to share some easy recipes with my kids- just looking for ideas of things to check out and you are definitely a recipe organizing pro!
Thanks. Lisa

WEIGH IN UPDATE
WEIGH INS DUE TODAY FROM @vegan4lyfe2012 @bobboyardee @AustinRuadhain (sorry for not posting your reminder yesterday!)
Reminder To Weigh In Tomorrow To @TeresaW2024 @FushiaKat0 -
@DrewsAnna Hugs I hope your knee is feeling better soon! Do you use any of the topical things for it or does ice/heat help?
@trooworld SO glad you’re sleeping better with your husband home! Ugh I hope the Memorial Day crowds aren’t too bad and you can get your shopping done. If you aren’t buying BBQ stuff maybe you can avoid people by going later? I may do that. LOL just read your husband telling you to calm down when you were lost that is the WORST thing to say when you’re seconds from a panic attack or in the middle of it. Thanks for sharing the recipes I’m defrosting ground beef right now so I’m looking forward to watching this.
@Cornanda I’m glad you’re getting a lot done it’s so easy to forget stuff at home and resting but feels amazing getting things done and resting. Have a wonderful time with the family cookout! Can’t wait to see your pots I hope you share. Aw I bet the deer and fawn were adorable. With the rescue group I’ve been seeing how slammed the local rescues are and sent a note offering to help. I was invited to come to Petco while they were there Saturday and met everyone and discussed fostering. Sadly only a few people came and looked at the cats up for adoption with the holiday weekend.
@txcritter69 Congratulations you’re doing wonderful with weight loss!
@sleepygirl79 Hang in there you got this! It could be something you ate or the body holding onto sodium/fluctuations. I go up about 5lbs when I’m in a flare.
@19shmoo69 Hummingbirds can be pretty mean with how territorial they are I’m glad your wife was able to give it some TLC. Beautiful little guy. I want to put up hummingbirds but don’t want them to bully each other, not sure if there’s a way to avoid it. Look at you holding the top individual spot for Fat2Fit, you go!
@TeresaW2024 I’m so sorry to hear Joe’s in the hospital, sending up prayers he’s feeling better and home soon. No wonder he was feeling so bad, I hope the antibiotics work fast. I’m glad you came home to get some rest sleeping in the hospital is horrible and you need to be able to think to make decisions for Joe so please don’t feel bad.
YAY MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLES IN 2ND PLACE THIS WEEK! CONGRATULATIONS @19shmoo69 @txcritter69 @trooworld at being out top winners! 62.5% in the green is amazing!
@baodell17724 Great to see you back, jump right in!
Hi friends! Yesterday we celebrated my SIL’s birthday, we went to a Thai restaurant near my parent’s house. I spent a little time in the yard and got some work done in the morning. I’d love to learn how to make Thai food like that restaurant it’s so good, I tried the Mango Chicken and it had a lot of veggies. Did have the brownie and ice cream and am feeling it today (sugar makes my pain worse). When I got home I started looking for my electric brush scrubber plug to charge it and ended up staying up half the night cleaning, I still haven’t found it but threw away a few bags of stuff. The pile of random wires in the middle of my bedroom right now is ridiculous! I’m working on cleaning up the bedroom foster kittens will go in, it’s my seed starting room/exercise room but I can’t use that exercise equipment anymore and I need to get all the lights, heating mats, and dirt cleaned up and put away (no wires to chew). My nephew offered to help me with my trellis so I think I’ll take him up on it later in the week. Have a great Monday gang!

Hi everyone !!! Glad to be back with y'all !!! THANKS FOR THE WELCOME !!! Sorry for flaking out and disappearing back in January (???) or whenever how long ago it was. I made the mistake of joining too many challenges here at MFP, and then got terribly confused as to if I posted my daily/weekly accountability info. So got disgusted with myself and deleted the whole "mess" of them. Nothing much new, though still faithfully on my weight-loss journey… that is after "falling off the wagon from mid-November to mid-January and gaining 20-ish pounds back. As of today, I'm at 209.4 lbs (down from my starting weight of 286.2 lbs on June 1st, 2024). Since I'm coming up on my one-year anniversary I was anxious to be back with y'all again, as I still have a ways to go still. [Target weight is still 160 lbs. but it still all depends on how I look/feel.] Oh, the other thing I DID do was join TOPS, so I now am able to attend their online ZOOM weekly men's meeting… I'd been looking for a face-to-face accountability group for the past year, and so glad to have finally found one. Looking forward to the June challenge with all the great info. and camaraderie that comes with it !!!😊
