@sleepymom5 I won't disappear, I promise.😊 I'm going to do my best to post anyway since I do need the support. Hugs to you too! Hope they can figure out what is going on with your knee and find something that will help. Stroopwafels!! Yum!!! My family is Dutch and I grew up eating them. Definitely hard to stop at just one.😊

@podperson1 Thanks! Me too! I'm pretty sure it will help since it has for the other things I've gone for. I also like that I 'm going to a therapist I've seen for multiple things over the years. It is nice that I was able to pick the place I wanted to go to. Hope you will continue to do well foodwize and am sure you will…

Not doing so well with food and water as you could tell by my post about being put on the cheer squad but I do want to get back into the habit of posting more regularly. I don't really have a lot to report other than I got xrays done for my knee this morning. The results came back pretty quickly. It shows mild…

@minstrelofsarcasm @1theresamcvean Hi ladies I think I need to be put back on the cheer team for now. I'm really having a hard time getting back on track. I know what to do, just not doing it.🙁 Would like to be excused from tomorrow's weigh in also, if possible. I'm going to try to post more regularly again, just would…

I'm several days behind again. Sure have missed a lot! I know I need to start posting regularly again since I know that helps me. I've been tired because my body has decided it should be awake when it should be sleeping and sleeping when I should be awake. I fall asleep just fine but then wake up for some reason and then…

@sleepymom5 Hope your knee starts feeling better. It's ni fun to be hurting. The Naproxen I was on did help some but you're right, I should probably call the doctor and see if anything else might help.

I'm several days behind on posts(again. 😯 It's past time for me to get back in gear. I do well for a few days and then not so good again. Seems so silly. I know what works but I don't do it. I have my annual physical in January and need to at least get back to what I was at last year's appointment. I called the jury phone…

@sleepymom5 Yes, I'm back at the gym and seeing my trainer a couple days a week but having an issue with my knee so we're doing mostly upper body so I don't aggravate it. I've only been going the days I work with him since I know I would want to do things that would probably not be good for my knee. The PA at my doctor's…

@debbiewsharpe You will get back on track.😁 Thanks for all your prayers. I'm glad all the tests turned out ok. I like his idea of the water challenge too,now I just need to start doing it.😊

@CassieGetsFit2013 I've had a few MRI's. They do usually give you headphones to block out some of the noise and that's how they talk with you. You do have to lay still while they record the images but it's for a little while and then you can relax. Then they take some more images. They walk you through the whole thing.…

@ljdanny Thanks! I hope your neck starts feeling better soon. I agree with you on keeping an eye on that swollenness and probably would get it checked out. Keep resting and doing what the doctors tell you.

@kandi3570 Thanks! I'm glad too!

Aww! How fun! We have dog parties in my condo complex too! Just happen to be outside when everyone takes their dogs out at the same time.🤣

Thanks! I'm glad too!

@GingerPwr Thank you! Me too! I tried not to think about it too much because what you imagine is always worse than the actual outcome. Thanks for all your thoughts.

I had my extra mammogram yesterday. They did it with the 3D technology so they can see more than with the 2D technology. I was there about an hour total and everything ended up being good. I didn't have to do the ultrasound. The radiologist read the images and came into the room to tell me what they saw on the original was…

Hope you continue to feel better. I've been awake since 6 but haven't gotten dressed yet and it's after 9.🤣 I have been doing laundry so I have accomplished something but I guess I should probably get dressed sometime.😁

@1theresamcvean Thanks! It's still kind if stressful but getting better. I have to go through a whole interview process before anything will happen. It is strange that so many health things are "idiopathic" like you said. My body never has the typical symptoms for anything so I never fit into a simple category for health…

@cafelelia I hope you will have a good Thanksgiving. Hopefully your son will do better with the change in teacher and room. Sometimes that's all it takes. Apparently it's not just as simple as going to day shift. I found out yesterday that there are 8 or 9 people from other areas wanting the position. I have to go through…

I know I'm not getting in enough water so I should probably go with that first. My trainer had me do a challenge where I drank 8 to 16 oz of water before each meal and/or snack. I did eat less when I did that. Guess I should try it again.

Wow! Miss a couple of days and miss a lot of posts! Still stress eating and not getting in enough water and not doing at least upper body workouts like I could be doing. I gir my ABI test yesterday, the one where they were trying to figure out why my feet have been cold lately. The test was normal so there is no reason why…

@Freeglerock I too reckon it is just practice that is needed - you can't expect to be able to go full pelt on a new process. Takes time for the brain to build the wire and connections to make the process more automatic. I can just imagine the look of concentration on your face! But ultimately, work is a big part of life,…

@goingape Have fun with your classes. Thanks, last night we didn't run the line I'm having trouble with. We don't run all the lines every night, just the ones that are behind with parts. I do need to remember to breathe when I do that line though. Next time I'm in it, I'll have to remind myself.😊

tryingagain5 Wednesday Week 1 PW: 200.2 CW: 205.8 Gain 5.6 Not surprised since U've been stress eating.😥

Thanks! That's probably it. Although I have been practicing on that line since Friday, 2 rotations each night, which ends up being 5 hours total each night.😯 I did have one coworker walk by me when I was on that line and told me I was doing fine and to not forget to breathe. He said it looked like I was concentrating so…

I'm Linda I'm not married and don't have kids but have 3 grown nephews who are married. I've been on this team since October 2019. Thank you to all who have encouraged me! It has been helpful. I have two great nieces, one who is 20 months old and one who is 11 months old. The two girls are cousins. I have had a weight…

I talked with a close family friend this weekend about my mammogram and that I have to go for more tests. She asked if it was a certain tech that did it and I said yes. She told me another of her friends had the same tech and had a bad experience to the point of making a complaint. Now I'm thinking that the tech didn't get…

Check in for last few days Not doing very well on food. Have been stress eating. Yes, I know that's not good. Too bad I don't have have the opposite of not eating when stressed.🤔😊. I know the scale will be up. Water: not enough Exercise: none , not allowed to go to the gym right now per doctor's office. I could have done…
