    @quiltingjaine that's wonderful your daughter is such a help

    @itladyee I would say that I am back to 100% today, with the exception of slight tenderness at injection site. Like I would not want to get punched there for another day or so. Hopefully, it has done it job! <3

    Day/Weight/Comment

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 193.0

    05/31-191.8 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 194.0) ‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️

    06/01 – 192.8 ❌ (Trend Weight –193.9)

    06/02-192.2 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 193.7) I’m starting to lose some of the Pizza bloat from Saturday night. What a relief! My weight continues to trend down which is giving me the confidence that I need. Now, if I can avoid self-sabotage I’ll be happy! A gloriously beautiful day here in Northern Michigan. We’ve had frost warnings every night including last night. But tomorrow is supposed to be 90 degrees! That’s what they say about Michigan: “if you don’t like the weather, wait a minute and it will change”. Have a great week everyone!

    🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️06/03-191.2 ✅ (Trend Weight: 193.5) Relieved to see this on the scale but I honestly don’t deserve it. My lunch was excellent and well within perimeters, my dinner was fantastic filled with all great and compliant choices. However, my snacks were filled with excess. I guess I couldn’t just pick ONE and I also kept dreaming about the leftover junk from DD and DGS. I had (too many) dry roasted peanuts straight out of the jar (not counted), a LARGE mug of OVERLY CHOCOLATE hot cocoa, 6 Chips Ahoy cookies and 3 ice cream sandwiches (calm down! They don’t make them as big as they used to!) Overdid it a bit Donna???. I did have about 400 calories and many carbs left over from the day but not THAT MANY! Will the scale catch up tomorrow? I dunno but I sure am going to get my water in today but probably not a lot of movement due to the extreme temps and the smoke from the Canadian fires. But I’ll try to get some unpacking and more organizing done with the new primary bedroom. That means lots of stairs!

    Thanks Jaine for the acronyms.

    Another Opportunity to Stay True to Oneself MFP Friends 🤩

    I've been fairly awful lately for many reasons. Of course I know better, blah blah & yak yak etc...

    We always do. Last round closed 2.6 lbs up and 20lbs overweight.

    Nearly everyone can recite what's healthy. Performance is more complex.

    I'm anticipating a 😈Hellish😈 two weeks. To make it through, my goals are simple:

    * Show Up - 10 of 10 posts

    * Weigh daily

    * Post body composition twice

    Rnd 298 SW 159.6 lbs

    5/31 - 156.6lbs

    My day was so lazy that laziness itself would ask what's your problem if this were possible. No further comment. 😉

    6/1 - 156.2 lbs

    Tanita Scale: fat 17.8%/ water 60.0%/ lean calc 22.2%

    Not yet respectable but I'm doing better!

    6/2 - 156.6 lbs

    I'm still a hot mess but I keep trying.

    6/3 - 155.6 lbs

    Body composition numbers are off between this week and last. I'm sure it's because I did not measure well and/ or average. I'm uncertain if either were done well.

    This is not important right now. Until my macros and my strength training routines are on back on schedule, accuracy is less meaningful.

    Today I'm benefiting by documenting recent muscle loss. The need to gain muscle is undeniable. Without dense muscle I risk becoming frail. It's also proof that heavy physical activity is not the same as my targeted exercise cycle.

    Tanita scale: 22.5% fat / 55.7% water / 22.8% lean calculation / Category - Overweight

    YMCA calculation: Body fat 28% / Fat mass 44 lbs / Lean mass 112 lbs / Body Fat Category - Acceptable

    DoD calculation: Body fat 33.0% (max 36%) / Body fat in weight 51.4 lbs / Lean body weight 104.6 lbs / Category - under maximum (I use the under forty guidelines for DoD. My goal is to be fit rather than "fit for my age". )

    6/4

    6/5

    6/6

    @SModa61 I read the article and it seems that it benefits women more than men (even though there is some benefit for men)

    @MSWDiet I just used an online calculator to do the YMCA body fat calculation. I am at 31% ! (It also told me I am obese. Duh.) So that is 70 pounds of body fat mass. If that was in a box on the floor I wouldn't be able to lift it. This is very inspirational.

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 298
    May 31 – June 9, 2025

    SW: 128.4

    5/31 – 129.0 Did not get this posted on the correct day. I did a mini binge Friday night, and it is showing on the scale. I also had BAD night. I’ll expound below.

    6/1 – 128.8 Friday, I had my physical as I mentioned last round. All went well, then she offered me the pneumonia vaccine. I figured why not. Well, man, it better be worth it. I was not warned how crappy I could feel (note that many have no reaction – like my sister). My arm was so sore that I could not sleep, and did not catch on that more was manifesting. I ended up with definite stomach ache, back ache, headache, and I think low level chills. Advil did not cut it, so I added Tylenol. Finally with 5 pills in me I felt good, which I was glad because I had a 10 am at my daughter’s house to show possible dresses. After, I headed to the mall, did returns feeling good and thinking it was over. Nope, it was just that the 5 pills had not worn off. Was in bed or on the couch the rest of the day and went to bed at 8PM. It is almost 7 am Sunday, I THINK it may be over, but just popped some Tylenol just in case.

    6/2 – DNW Just was not in the mood to face the scale today, but heh, it is Monday and there is always a chance for a new day and to do better. I expect today to be good.

    6/3 – 131.0 Oh, man. Given that I had a “perfect” day, and then went late night crazy, I wish I HAD stepped on the scale yesterday. A number like this would have stopped me a day sooner. So up until 8 pm last night, I had fit in a walk (first in at least a week), had planned and tracked all day, was under target, AND was not even hungry when I got out of line. Go figure. I am now past the vaccination side effects, so that cannot be my excuse, and I am committed to not do a third evening with such behavior. I am heading to the gym to get in a session today, something that has also been lacking for over a week. Happy Tuesday all!

    6/4 – 130.4 Excellent day yesterday. Hour in the gym, calories tracked and on point. I think the number will improve once my digestive system gets back in order. No TMI this morning, which is not typical. If I can get back into the 128’s by the end of the round, that would be great!

    Thank you @quiltingjaine 🌸

    5/31 RTW-Yesterday was a free for all after traveling home from my uncles cabin. Back on the wagon today.
    6/1-140-Still feeling the repercussions of the road trip and unnecessary carbs. Today will be cooler, so we won’t be stuck in the house.
    6/2-140- Made cinnamon rolls to take and ate one while I was there. Off to PB this morning and a fundraiser dinner tonight. No bread today.
    6/3-DNW-Today, today I will be back on the wagon. Yoga this morning, horse, yard work and some quilting when it gets hot….

    6/4-140-PB this morning and hope to stay out of the snacks.

    6/01 - 170.3

    6/02 - 169.7

    6/03 - 168.5

    6/04 - 168.6 - I'm feeling rather good with things right now. I've managed to get my steps in, though some days I'm pacing before bed to do so while others I go above and beyond. I'm also getting my water intake up to or above 100oz so far this week. Food is all logged and and within goals for today. I tentatively decided on the two dinners for next week's meal prep and need to figure out sides (keto dinner) and lunches. I also need to spend some time today figuring out what breakfast will consist of tomorrow so I can pre-log it and be prepared since breakfast is usually a bit rushed between getting home from the gym, showering, and getting on the computer for work in a timely manner. It can be done, though! Walk is postponed to the afternoon again today due to some morning storms. I love the storms but they do shake up routine for the dogs and I. Oh well, we need the rain and I love the sound of rumbling thunder and pitter-patter of rain on my metal roof.

    I can:
    ✅ Show up/post daily
    ✅ Stay consistent/Don't change the plan
    ✅ Push through the hard moments
    ✅ Make progress—physically, mentally, emotionally.
    ✅ Start the momentum
    Measurable Daily Goals
    🚶🏽- Closing my rings M-S Move = 700/Exercise = 45/Stand = 12)
    🍎- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget (~ 1650 ~)
    ✅ - Macros - Protein (75g - 100g) Carbs < 75g
    💧- Water - 50 oz minimum
    🚫 - No Wine
    ⬇️- Downward trend
    🚶🏽🍎✅💧🚫⬇️
    SW RND 298 ~ 231.4 Goal this round 227.6 or less than started, whichever comes first!
    ***Vanity Round *** Cute outfits, wearing a “belt”, loving what’s I see in the mirror!!! #FueledByVanity
    5/31 231.2 🚶🏽💧⬇️ Walked 2.9 miles yesterday, Calories over budget, so will probably show up tomorrow. Getting back out there for another walk. Not sure if I will get close to 3 miles but I will give it a go….
    6/1 232.2 🚶🏽🍎✅ Didn’t think I could do 3 days in a row at 3 miles, but I did. There was no pain, ok, minimal, so I kept going….i know i need a day of rest but I think Im going to push to Tuesday (work day) when I only do treadmill….Calories 1752, so bump from the day before, I guess. I’ve got to get back to logging my CICO in my spreadsheet so I can start to troubleshoot the lack of downward trend.
    6/2 231.8 🚶🏽🍎✅⬇️ Going for day #4 today then rest tomorrow. Calories 1686. Water!!!
    6/3 230.4 🚶🏽🍎✅⬇️ Yes!! 4 days in a roll clocking 3 miles each day and happy to see the scale come down. Today, active rest day. I was on the treadmill for 30 minutes. It's a work day so I'll be sitting for about 6 hours but have nothing else physical planned for the day. Calories 1964. I've been focusing on eating (dinner) earlier…between 3 & 4…but unfortunately that leaves room for snacks..but as long as I can control the snacks to stay under calorie goal… Win???
    6/4 231.4 🚶🏽🍎✅💧 Less active just by the fact that it was a work day but I did manage to close my rings (700/45/12). I considered yesterday an active rest day and did 30 minutes on the treadmill. Calories 1616. Finally a decent water day. It's wet and rainy today and looks like an all day thing. Unlikely to get 3 miles in but will do my VRBox/Dance for a bit. My treadmill does not give me the same mileage as outside so I just use time for measurement there.
    6/5
    6/6
    6/7
    6/8
    6/9

    @SModa61 ~ Like I would not want to get punched there for another day or so. That made me chuckle!

    @Skyleen75 ~ that salad and garlic bread are making my mouth water!!! Enjoy it and your relaxing evening. I totally get the wish for silence!!!

    @_JeffreyD_ ~ If that was in a box on the floor I wouldn't be able to lift it. What a way to shine a very bright light!!!

    “You have the power to accomplish everything you set out to do today.”
    (particularly important for me today as I set out for 3 miles again, weather permitting 😎 )

    💜 MY MISSION STATEMENT 💜
    Show up for myself daily—with strength, grace, and purpose.
    Choose progress over perfection and stay the course.
    Honor my body through movement, nourishment, and belief.
    Each step moves me closer to my healthiest, happiest self. I
    am strong. I am steady. I am unstoppable.

    HWE 197.0 (2/2008)
    Weight on 1/17/17 174.5
    OGW 137 (set by WW 2008, WW goal 1985 was 126) UGW was 125 (HS weight)

    1/1/25  139.5

    Comments pertain to previous day

    ****

    Rnd 298 SW 133.0

    5/31  133.0  83 days until DGS’s wedding. Of course I am now wishing I had bought the dress that wasn’t my favorite because that was the one DH “LOVED” My initial comment was “I don’t love this one.” I may have to go back and see if it’s still there. I absolutely HATE buying clothes!

    6/1   133.0  I went back and bought the dress.

    Day/Weight/Comment

    ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND 193.0

    05/31-191.8 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 194.0) ‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️

    06/01 – 192.8 ❌ (Trend Weight –193.9)

    06/02-192.2 ✅ - (Trend Weight: 193.7)

    06/03-191.2 ✅ (Trend Weight: 193.5) Relieved to see this on the scale but I honestly don’t deserve it. My lunch was excellent and well within perimeters, my dinner was fantastic filled with all great and compliant choices. However, my snacks were filled with excess. I guess I couldn’t just pick ONE and I also kept dreaming about the leftover junk from DD and DGS. I had (too many) dry roasted peanuts straight out of the jar (not counted), a LARGE mug of OVERLY CHOCOLATE hot cocoa, 6 Chips Ahoy cookies and 3 ice cream sandwiches (calm down! They don’t make them as big as they used to!) Overdid it a bit Donna???. I did have about 400 calories and many carbs left over from the day but not THAT MANY! Will the scale catch up tomorrow? I dunno but I sure am going to get my water in today but probably not a lot of movement due to the extreme temps and the smoke from the Canadian fires. But I’ll try to get some unpacking and more organizing done with the new primary bedroom. That means lots of stairs!

    Thanks Jaine for the acronyms.

    🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️06/04-192.0 ❌ - (Trend Weight: ???) Well, the scale took a day but it caught up with those ice cream sandwiches from night before last. The fiddler always insists on his pay and he’s a greedy little bast##d. Anyway, I could not get my trend weight today because I transferred the weight from my smart scale to my fitbit app incorrectly as 92 lbs instead of 192 pounds. Can’t seem to get it to recognize the change even with restarting computer, restarting phone etc. I hope it will eventually adjust today. If not, I hope it will not mess up the future trends as tomorrows weight will look like a 100 pound increase overnight! Ah, technology was to make life easier, right?

    Rnd 298 SW 189.0

    Hoping to stay consistent this round and looking at the scale even on days where I am scared to!! 

    5/31 —

    6/1 - 189lbs. I was 187 last round but I ate some peanut butter which always gives me inflammation… so here I am! 

    6/2 - 189lbs

    6/3 - 189lbs

    6/4 - 187.5lbs .. alright. I think I’m recovering from this inflammation again. Also, I started going back to the gym! Last time I had great results by doing primarily strength training with a quick 5-10min cardio at the end of my workout. Let’s see if it works again!

    be happy because I feel that I have made the round count at the end

    I need to remain consistent - it does work! Good luck for success everyone.

    Spoiler Warning

    I am the driver in my life, not the passenger, I need to drive my life to a healthy life. "Health is wealth".

    5/30 142 – (trend 141) 4.07 miles walked – drove 60 miles to meet up with DD & DGS for the day, steps were obtained whilst waiting for then to arrive! Not proud of the last 3 days, I’ve just gone ferrel!! At least I’ve got a 0.2 pound loss, but it seems that this is becoming a pattern as the last 3 rounds of the previous round I ran amuck too ☹. Maybe I should look at just a 7 day round lol ! I’ll just move on and keep trying.

    EW Rnd 297 142

    SW Rnd 298 141.6

    5/31 141.6 (trend 141.1) 9.06 miles walked. A good start to the round with sensible eating yesterday. Up to Sheffield today for youngest DGD's 4th birthday party, there will be cake, but intend being sensible on everything else.

    6/1 144.6 (trend 141.6) ouch! ☹. Overindulged at the party yesterday & no exercise either 😪.

    6/2 142.6 (trend 141.7), that’s better, yesterday & during the night after the party I felt very bloated and uncomfortable, last night I was so tired, I went to bed early and slept all through, feel so much better this morning – lesson learnt? 13.74 miles walked.

    6/3 142.6 (trend 141.8) 9.82 miles walked.

    6/4 141.8 (trend 141.9) 6.85 miles walked. Halfway through!

    @itladyee You are nailing it this round closing those rings! Look at us, turning it around!!!! Trying everyday to figure out how to take care of ourselves!

    @Soccrr99 I agree whole heartedly with your gym plan! I strongly believe we need both strength AND cardio for health.

    Just Give Me 10 Days – Round 298
    May 31 – June 9, 2025

    SW: 128.4

    5/31 – 129.0 Did not get this posted on the correct day. I did a mini binge Friday night, and it is showing on the scale. I also had BAD night. I’ll expound below.

    6/1 – 128.8 Friday, I had my physical as I mentioned last round. All went well, then she offered me the pneumonia vaccine. I figured why not. Well, man, it better be worth it. I was not warned how crappy I could feel (note that many have no reaction – like my sister). My arm was so sore that I could not sleep, and did not catch on that more was manifesting. I ended up with definite stomach ache, back ache, headache, and I think low level chills. Advil did not cut it, so I added Tylenol. Finally with 5 pills in me I felt good, which I was glad because I had a 10 am at my daughter’s house to show possible dresses. After, I headed to the mall, did returns feeling good and thinking it was over. Nope, it was just that the 5 pills had not worn off. Was in bed or on the couch the rest of the day and went to bed at 8PM. It is almost 7 am Sunday, I THINK it may be over, but just popped some Tylenol just in case.

    6/2 – DNW Just was not in the mood to face the scale today, but heh, it is Monday and there is always a chance for a new day and to do better. I expect today to be good.

    6/3 – 131.0 Oh, man. Given that I had a “perfect” day, and then went late night crazy, I wish I HAD stepped on the scale yesterday. A number like this would have stopped me a day sooner. So up until 8 pm last night, I had fit in a walk (first in at least a week), had planned and tracked all day, was under target, AND was not even hungry when I got out of line. Go figure. I am now past the vaccination side effects, so that cannot be my excuse, and I am committed to not do a third evening with such behavior. I am heading to the gym to get in a session today, something that has also been lacking for over a week. Happy Tuesday all!

    6/4 – 130.4 Excellent day yesterday. Hour in the gym, calories tracked and on point. I think the number will improve once my digestive system gets back in order. No TMI this morning, which is not typical. If I can get back into the 128’s by the end of the round, that would be great!

    6/5 – 129.4 Ok, now we are getting back to reality. Did not get in any exercise yesterday, but lots of packing and cleaning up. Early morning at my mom’s ALF, but found and resolved several issues, then returned two more dresses, came home and got the house ready, cooked dinner, finished cleaning, drove to maine (again) and unpacked the car. Today, I plan to get a walk this morning, before it gets hot. Then errands to run, and then the day just gets normal.

    Male: 67
    6’-2”
    OSW: 237.8 (Nov. 2016.) I was actually at 250 in 2011 or so…
    OGW: 199 (just to say I did)
    Maintenance Range Goal: 200-205

    Simple Goal for this round:
    -Log it before you eat it.
    -Hit it hard on the front end of the ten days.

    Round 298 Posts
    This is my posting format….

    Month/Day: Scale Reading - First thing today after bathroom visit before getting dressed. (Calories In – day before)/ Comment

    5/27/25 : 225.2 SW before.

    5/31: 226.4 (1917 CI)
    I did not weigh yesterday, so my SW is from my last step on a scale. I can’t complain about this morning’s reading after the road trip.

    I want to hit the next 6 days hard because I have another road trip the end this round. I am not going to take a scale because it’s a fly-in fishing trip in Ontario. We have weight restrictions for the final leg of the trip as we fly to a remote lake/fishing camp. Seven days of bliss as we haul Walleye and Pike over the gunnels of the boat. Catch and release except for what we eat for lunch every day. The food will be plentiful, but we will take it all in with us.

    6/1: 226.6 (1899 CI)
    I need to declare war on carbs. I am sure there is residual damage from my road trip.

    6/2: 228.0 (!)
    Gads! So yesterday I declared war on carbs…. I lost count of all the mindless carbs I ate. DW took cookies to a potluck and brought some home. I ate one every time I walked by the container. I am so weak between the ears.

    6/3: 227.4 (1545 CI)
    No cookies yesterday in spite of DW idea that there needs to be a clear cookie jar on the counter now. (because her mom did) We have grandchildren to spoil! I realize that nobody is physically forcing me to eat anything, so I don’t blame DW.

    Starting to pack for the trip. We all need to keep it to 45-50 pounds of “stuff” so the pontoon plane can lift off the lake.

    6/4: 225.6 (1916 CI)
    Wow, Still reeling from my Body Fat % calculation…………… I realize it is not 100% accurate, but it gives me a baseline for comparison (with my future self,)

    6/5: 226.2 (?)
    A double bacon cheeseburger for lunch with DGS and a piece of Key Lime Pie after a meeting last night….

    Final packing for the fishing trip today along with a million other things.

    Yesterday DW had an ENT appointment about her dysphonia, and they ruled out growths or polyps on her vocal chords. Thank you God. On to the next Dr.

    I can:
    ✅ Show up/post daily
    ✅ Stay consistent/Don't change the plan
    ✅ Push through the hard moments
    ✅ Make progress—physically, mentally, emotionally.
    ✅ Start the momentum
    Measurable Daily Goals
    🚶🏽- Closing my rings M-S Move = 700/Exercise = 45/Stand = 12)
    🍎- Tracking/Under Calorie Budget (~ 1650 ~)
    ✅ - Macros - Protein (75g - 100g) Carbs < 75g
    💧- Water - 50 oz minimum
    🚫 - No Wine
    ⬇️- Downward trend
    🚶🏽🍎✅💧🚫⬇️
    SW RND 298 ~ 231.4 Goal this round 227.6 or less than started, whichever comes first!
    ***Vanity Round *** Cute outfits, wearing a “belt”, loving what’s I see in the mirror!!! #FueledByVanity
    5/31 231.2 🚶🏽💧⬇️ Walked 2.9 miles yesterday, Calories over budget, so will probably show up tomorrow. Getting back out there for another walk. Not sure if I will get close to 3 miles but I will give it a go….
    6/1 232.2 🚶🏽🍎✅ Didn’t think I could do 3 days in a row at 3 miles, but I did. There was no pain, ok, minimal, so I kept going….i know i need a day of rest but I think Im going to push to Tuesday (work day) when I only do treadmill….Calories 1752, so bump from the day before, I guess. I’ve got to get back to logging my CICO in my spreadsheet so I can start to troubleshoot the lack of downward trend.
    6/2 231.8 🚶🏽🍎✅⬇️ Going for day #4 today then rest tomorrow. Calories 1686. Water!!!
    6/3 230.4 🚶🏽🍎✅⬇️ Yes!! 4 days in a roll clocking 3 miles each day and happy to see the scale come down. Today, active rest day. I was on the treadmill for 30 minutes. It's a work day so I'll be sitting for about 6 hours but have nothing else physical planned for the day. Calories 1964. I've been focusing on eating (dinner) earlier…between 3 & 4…but unfortunately that leaves room for snacks..but as long as I can control the snacks to stay under calorie goal… Win???
    6/4 231.4 🚶🏽🍎✅💧 Less active just by the fact that it was a work day but I did manage to close my rings (700/45/12). I considered yesterday an active rest day and did 30 minutes on the treadmill. Calories 1616. Finally a decent water day. It's wet and rainy today and looks like an all day thing. Unlikely to get 3 miles in but will do my VRBox/Dance for a bit. My treadmill does not give me the same mileage as outside so I just use time for measurement there.
    6/5 230.8 🍎✅💧🚫⬇️ I didn't close my rings because I put my watch on the charger at 8:30 and didn't remember until 3:00 ish….urgh. Even from 3 on, I was at least 75% on each ring so I would have closed them… oh well. I didn't get my walk in due to the weather but I repotted about 10 plants which gave me quite a calisthenic workout :) Calories 1947. Headed out today but feeling very sore….hopefully will walk it off!

    @Skyleen75 ~ interesting approach to laundry. I have a varying approach…mind you all of this is now that I'm part-time. While working, it was once a week….several loads.

    This part hasn't changed…these are separate loads …never to be combined and done as needed*

    *kitchen towels, cloth placemats (don't use table cloths anymore)
    *bed linens > delegated to my husband but done weekly.
    *bath matts, towels etc. as needed (I have lots of towels)
    *floor rugs

    Then there's clothing….
    My goals is still once a week but if I notice a lot of workout clothes, I will throw a load in. I also split loads with "like" clothes. (Ie: all jeans and shorts, All tops, All workout clothes). Why? Because I despise folding and putting laundry away, so if I make them as small as possible, it doesn't seems to be as big of a burden.

    If I did it daily…there would always be clothes left in the dryer and that's a pet peeve of mind :)

    My health isn't a maybe, it's a full-body YES!!!

    💜 MY MISSION STATEMENT 💜
    Show up for myself daily—with strength, grace, and purpose.
    Choose progress over perfection and stay the course.
    Honor my body through movement, nourishment, and belief.
    Each step moves me closer to my healthiest, happiest self. I
    am strong. I am steady. I am unstoppable.

    @Skyleen75 I ❤️ your laundry rant! My DH does ours so however he chooses is fine with me! The washer we got a few years ago is so deep that I can barely reach the bottom. I would get rid of it in a flash if it were up to me! I can no longer hand dye fabric or garments because the seems to be no way to to repeated rinses. Sometimes there is barely enough water to get the load wet so he has to trick the machine into thinking there is more stuff in it. It’s a PITA at 75/76.
    When our girls were still at home, I did laundry on Saturday. There was always a red load and a yellow load.
