I missed yesterday. It was a hard day. I ran out of my premade salad and soup. So, my eating was sketchy. I tried to make good choices, but fell back to cheese when I was hungry. I had some cravings, which meant my base nutritional needs weren’t being met. My scale went down, .2, so I think I stayed close to my range. My…

Tomorrow we are getting our new range hood. So that is exciting. I ordered new pants, from the same store where I bought my current pants from, with the same fit. I bought the next size lower. My pants feel kind of weird, like they don’t fit, but I keep pulling them up higher. So, it might be that I am ready for the lower…

Well, I’m a little disappointed with today’s weigh in. But I weight doesn’t fall off in a straight line. I am following the calorie guidelines and eating really well. So I’m sure it’s fine. Plus, I’ve increased my walk by 1/2 mile, so I may be adding a little muscle. Hopefully in the next few days it bounces down. This…

Mmmm, made a fabulous salad for dinner tonight. I saved a portion for tomorrow as well. I’m grateful to live near a fabulous grocery store with all of the fresh ingredients and that we are fortunate enough to be able to buy them. When I sit down and do the math, this is expensive - but delicious.…

So, my son (17) had another episode last night, so we headed out to the ER at around 11:15 and came back home at 4am. He had a blood test, an EKG, and an X-ray. They found nothing wrong, so that’s good. Unless he passes out, he can just try and breathe through any weirdness. We have an appointment with his GP on Wednesday…

My kid appeared to have a health emergency and we had to go to the ER. After testing, we found that we can wait to talk to his GP on Wednesday before we make a plan of action. But we were there until 4:00 am. It was a busy night I guess. Le Sigh. So I planned on starting work late, and then the power went out at like 8am,…

@lisakatz2 - I feel that way a lot. I hate looking at myself in the mirror and end up upset that I got here in the first place. All I see is the fat. It’s part of being marginalized in society. I understand that in my consciousness, it’s very logical. But my emotional self can’t seem to hear it. Fortunately, my therapist…

Glad to find another one of us! We are everywhere!

Ugh, I feel like a drama queen. I swear, we are usually a low drama - super healthy family, but this is a weird time. My 17 year old just informed me that he gets a weird feeling in his heart sometimes, that makes his left arm feel weird. I think he had covid about 3 months ago. The oldest tested positive but he didn’t.…

Good news! Whatever it was I stepped on, the doctor’s fiddling around must have gotten it out. The X-ray came back clear. I’m glad I decided to go do it right away instead of waiting for the next week. Being a Friday afternoon, I was afraid they would turn me away, but I risked it. I still have a lump, but I will soak my…

I don’t know how many saw my post yesterday, but everything has changed for the better! I stepped on something a while ago that was stuck in the bottom of my foot. Last week the bump started growing and hurting when I walked so I made a doctor appointment. Long story short, the doctor dug around and couldn’t get it out. I…

I stepped on something a while ago and the doctor couldn’t get it out. I had an x-ray to see what it is and then we will figure out next steps. I’m probably not going to make my walking goal until this stupid thing is out of my foot. I think that would do more damage to my knee and back. Plus, my house hold…

Heather - I’m glad everything went well! Keep us posted on your progress and recovery! Lisa & Machka - It must be the evergreens or city dirt then. It was too gross. I had lines hung up and everything. Hopefully I can hang laundry at our next place. I stepped on something a while ago that is stuck in the bottom of my foot.…

Last night I took advil before bed and slept really well. Sometimes my knee wakes me up. I stretched at work a bunch of times today and it went well except when I sat for too long, then I got stiff. I walked tonight and it was great. I just need to keep moving. I’m going to bed early tonight because I had to work too late…

Lisa - your place is lovely! Our main concern is medical care when we are older. Does your laundry ever get dusty outside? Our did, so I didn’t hang it. I think it is from all of the evergreen trees. But maybe it’s normal and I just don’t know it. Machka9 - Is there a concern about caffeine? I drink a ton of coffee daily.…

Ha! I was hungry. I made my lunch of soup and it cleared right up. After I ate, I was like “sweets would be nice, but I can pass.”

I am having a craving for something sweet. I’m not hungry, I’m not thirsty. I just want some fricken fracken sugar. Which isn’t going to do me a lick of good. I’m hoping this little sesh helps me move on with my day.

I pay an annual fee so that I don’t get ads. I wonder what the benefit to the subscription will be when the feed is gone. Recipes I guess, but I have those at Delish.

Got my walk in tonight. It was rainy but lovely. I have a really good coat, so it’s comfortable, even in the rain. I bit it in the driveway and wrenched my knee and back. I was able to complete my walk just fine - but I’m going to be sore tomorrow. It’s so annoying. @ozdeelite - that happens to me sometimes too. If I am…

Jeez, I went out to take my walk this evening and I slipped on fell in the driveway. I’m OK. But I’m not happy about it. I thought I was just a klutz because my husband swept the driveway this weekend, so I tripped on nothing! But he went out to get the mail and said that it is slippery. Meanwhile, I’m sure my back will…

Hello, I am 53 years old and am getting back on the wagon. I switched jobs and lost 10 pounds naturally, but then 3 came back and I kind of stabilized there. I actually need to take off a lot more than that though. I was a stay at home mom longer than was good for me, and it led to depression and weight gain. I’m back in…
