:bigsmile: Jeannie, we have an upright freezer.....when DH bought it many years ago, I couldn't see the point in having it......now I have all the homemade applesauce I made in the fall, squash I cooked and froze in October, chicken breasts that i buy in big packages from Costco and then freeze individually and lots of frozen vegetables so I don't have to be running to the store every few days.........I rarely buy anything processed except some sauces and condiments that DH likes on his food.

:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: Today is our Isagenix cleanse day which makes it a sort of rest day as well. I walked the dogs as usual this morning varying the route because of the deer. They seem to watch us without worry but I don’t like to get too close. I slept later than usual so the whole walk was in the daylight. I’m doing the week’s laundry including the sheets and all five blankets off our bed. The dogs make such a mess of the blankets that we need to have a lot of them to make sure we both get covered and warm on cold nights. Bernie, the cat likes to sleep under the covers all day and on top of them at night. We record favorite TV shows on our DVR so we have good stuff to watch together when we have time like on cleanse day. I can finally feel some effects of the weight training. It took a few weeks to learn the routine and gradually add weight until it became sufficiently challenging. Yesterday along with my regular weight training routine I ran the three blocks to the neighborhood clubhouse, did calf raises on the carpeted steps inside, walked for 10 minutes on the highest incline on the treadmill, did two sets of barbell bench press with 30 pounds and ran home. I found out that running in my Shape-Ups is easier than running in high top hiking boots and running alone is easier than running with two dogs on leashes.

Congrats on the freezer Jeannie! And thx for the swimsuit ideas - they didn't have much for my size, but really cute styles! My internet buys should be arriving in the next few days, we'll see how they turn out

I'm keeping up with my physical therapy for my hip/back issues, I hate to announce negative thoughts but it doesn't seem to be reducing my pain yet? Still hoping that a few more weeks will make a difference so that I can reduce the constant (but low-level) pain.

I AM SHORT TOO 5 FOOT 3!!!!!

my goal is to weigh like 105/100? Idk, ask long as I have a six pack
