@LazyBlondeChef - I am so very sorry to hear that. You'll be in my thoughts and in my meditations. Wishing you the strength you need to deal with the physical and emotional ramifications of the disease and the treatment. <3

Down 0.9 today. Cat, I hope you're feeling better. Ann, what a beautiful garden (and dog)!

I generally access MFP from my computer. If you need help setting up the May discussion threads, I could help with that.

I hope everyone is having a good weekend. I just finished digging out the second new perennial bed. It has been a serious workout. Fitbit says my calorie burn yesterday was 2900. I had better see a weight loss this week!

Nice to hear from you, Ann! We had a beautiful day here weather-wise, sunny and a high in the 60s. I worked in the yard for 4+ hours, digging up grass. I'll count that as my workout for the day, though I did do my strength training too. It will definitely be an early night for me! Hope everyone had a good day!

I love dogs, but we couldn't have one due to the hours my husband and I worked. Now we would have time, but our kitty is a rescue. She was abused, abandoned, and lived at the shelter for well over a year. They let us adopt her because she would be the only pet in our house. She has come a long way and is my constant…

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes. Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.

Even though I saved the draft, the cheerleading comment I was working on has vanished. I don't have the time or the patience to recreate it. To @LazyBlondeChef , sending good wishes that you are back on your feet soon. To everyone with 3 checks, your are awesome. Keep up the good work! To everyone with two checks, you are…

Your smoothie sounds delicious. I am not nearly as creative when I make smoothies. Your Peloton pup is adorable! Ann also has adorable dogs. Happy National Dog Parent Appreciation Day!!! Cat and I both have cats. We both use pictures of our cats in our profile pictures. :D Happy National Cat Lady Day!!! Hope everyone is…

Thanks for sharing last year's version of you. It is discouraging to stay the same weight or to gain weight, but we can't beat ourselves up. Look how far we have come! Even though we're a year older, we are in better shape than we were last year. Woohoo for us!!!

Randi in April of 2022 I was 11 pounds lighter than I had been in April of the previous year. This was accomplished largely through practicing mindful eating. My eating was pretty good, included plenty of fruits and veggies, but snacks and cookies were too common in my diet. I had been walking regularly, aiming for 10,000…

Okay, here's hoping that Ann had a better weigh-in than the rest of us. I'm all in for Cat's April 17th challenge, and I've added a challenge for this week as well. ;)

Exercised and probably did okay calorie-wise, but the rebellious child in my just did not want to track. It happens some times. Pass day # 1.

No change in weight. :/ Good luck Ann, Bisky, and Cat! Bisky, I love the card!
-
So Cat, did you have a slug day or did you exercise? Enquiring minds want to know! :D Bisky, a card workshop sounds fun. (Disclosure: I am a card maker) Hope you enjoyed it. Ann, thinking of you and hoping all is well in your world. I had a bit of a slug day myself yesterday. I had various body aches from the gardening I…

@StrongerJan - Yes, absolutely. Usually the food part gives me a harder time than the exercise. Don't beat yourself up. Celebrate what you are doing right. @jamcnewman - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Hope you enjoy your special day. @IsraaQ - Welcome to the challenge. One of the great things about this group is that you will see…

Bisky, all of us here have all confessed to having less than stellar days! Social occasions are always a challenge. I hope I didn't sound harsh about processed foods. When I reread my post, I saw it could be taken that way. I have tried to minimize processed foods in my diet as much as possible as I am hoping to cultivate…

If I continue to behave myself for the rest of today, my protein intake will be 22/22/20. We are getting Thai food for dinner. I can't wait! We haven't had it in a long time. Cat, I didn't realize that your BP was still out of control. My first thought was the Mayo Clinic, too, but I think you're already doing almost all…
