My boy is out of surgery and they said everything looks good. A lot of damage (obviously), but they were able to line it all back up how it as supposed to go. There were some 'dusky' spots, but surgeon hoping it will heal up just fine. We just have to put neosporin on it, keep it moist while it heals. They should be coming…

I don't have anywhere else to post this right now. I need to post this while I'm waiting to hear back from husband. Our youngest dog bit my youngest son's nose (like almost the entire tip) almost completely off. Like, it was only hanging on by the bottom skin of his nose. At least that's what it looked like. I didn't want…

So this pit stop has lasted a bit longer than expected lol. But back to it again tomorrow definitely WITH tracking again and WITH exercising again. Exercise is just gonna be eliptical for now and once I've gotten back in to the groove of doing something, I'll find another program to try out. No real news other than that…

So I'm giving in and eating whatever today. But I've decided that even if I'm still in a funk... I'm going to get back to it next week. I can't just wait until I get my mojo back b/c... maybe it won't come back. I don't know but I can't just sit around and sulk. BUT I'm just eating whatever I want today then getting back…

Alrighty. Quick post I've just lost my motivation. I do just want to cheat now. I had some popcorn today. I didn't eat a ton of it, but I ate some. Also had lots of watermelon (MUAHAHAHAHAHA GIVE IT ALL TO ME!) too. So yeah, NOT keto but I guess it could've been worse. Exercise has also been a big nope. Just... in a funk.…

ROFL!!! That is too damn funny! So young and already guilt-tripping lol. Daughter's room is on the other side of the house and we sleep with a loud fan on so we can't hear anything lol. She's been sleeping in her room a little more often since she got home from grandparents house, but I think we have a few more years of…

AF just about gone but energy level is waaay low. Just having to get up to feed kittens in the early morning has been wearing me down some. I've actually been sleeping better for the most part though. I think it helped that my daughter was at her grandparent's house for like 2 weeks so most of that time we had the bed to…
-
AF is making me want to eat eat eat! Hardly any IFing going on here. Thank goodness I have some self control b/c dang.. what I wouldn't give for some ice cream or just a dang sandwich right about now lol. My self control is kinda lacking when it comes to watermelon though. We just finished off the 2nd seeded one we had…

I've been watching a ton of Kitten Lady videos on youtube which have been SUPER helpful and informative. I'll check out his channel too :) That's so sad about the bunnies. I just do not like outdoor cats. Mostly b/c cats just straight up kill local wildlife which isn't fair to the wildlife. I understand barncats. They're…

/HUGS Stay as safe as you can. Maybe if you get snacky you could go for lower calorie options? Like carrot sticks, celery, pickles, etc? I mean obviously not as good as something junky but maybe it could help. I'm so jealous that yall are in winter! It's 'melt your face off' hot here. My state has had steady 1000+…
-
/HUGS It could be anything from hormones, stress, to just too much salt with what you ate. Plus.. you're almost in the onederlands which means naturally it's going to be frustrating as all hell to break through to those 100's. Not sure why it always seems to be like that.
-
LOL We just got them yesterday. Got home a bit later than I had hoped, but we did get our 2 kittens :) Not great photos, but there will be more! On the way home. Both of them grew up in inlaws storage building and were absolutely TERRIFIED of the sun. Never experienced that before, but they calmed down once in the carrier…
-
That's what is so great about these YT videos. Free so no guilt about 'wasting money' on anything if I don't do them ;) ROFL I'm taking another break day today. AF should be arriving soon and I had a bad headache this morning (most likely PMS). So since I'm not exercising, decided to put together the cat tree we got in…
-
Day 9 workout and... I only did one video. I tried out inclined planks using my soda to lean on and it was better on my wrists, but felt like I had to really concentrate to engage my core. BUT it worked and I was able to do a lot more plank moves. I skipped the leg/glute video I was supposed to do though. I started it and…
-
Leah- Awwwwww! I always hoped to find a kitten in our neighborhood. We have a feral colony that lives in the storm drains. I've seen them a few times and had a TNR one w/ its ear snipped that I would feed whenever it came around, but I haven't seen it in years. misty- Then these kittens we'll be getting should be the most…
-
So this was supposed to be day 7 of my workout, but I'm taking another rest day. My wrists are just... they need more rest. I should've probably have done SOME sort of workout today, but MEH. I'm out of shape, old and lazy... I'm taking another rest :P lol I also think starting soon, I'm going to start tracking once again.…
-
I wouldn't even worry about it at this point. You know what you gotta do and you know you can do it.
-
Funny that you mentioned dance videos, b/c I have looked up some. Since I can't really do plank exercises and that's the majority of the videos for the program I picked, I was trying to look up alternatives and came across some dance videos I was going to try out in place. My kids are 3, 5, and 7 so they're still really…
-
WOO BOY. I've decided to try Chloe Ting workouts. I picked the wrong one to start with. I decided to try the core 2 week challenge and... that was a mistake! rofl. I can't do planks. Or well.. proper planks that puts pressure on your wrists so will have to do an easier version. It's only my 2nd day and I can already feel…
-
Holy smokes. I hate pain meds, but I'd be asking for ALL OF THEM if I was her. Good luck on your fast!!!
-
Day 2 of workout videos and... my buttcheeks are gonna be SO sore tomorrow. Today's videos were Full body, core/planks, ab/butt I'm going to have to skip the majority of planks. Even with my wrist wraps, I can do about 2 poorly done plank exercises. My wrists just aren't strong enough to hold me up with the number of plank…
-
Okedoke so... First day of doing CHloe Ting workouts and yall... the struggle bus has crashed in to the house. Holy moly. I couldn't even do like half of the exercises b/c my body just physically can't. Like I can't put a ton of pressure on my wrists and what are a lot of the exercises? PLANKS. Sure, there are the elbow…
-
Yeah, that seems to be the case for me too with fruit. A little bit probably won't do much, but eating more than a serving is going to cause problems for me. I would suggest looking up some videos on people trying out Chloe Ting workouts. They're really inspiring and watching more of them has made me want to start it on…
-
So... dentist pretty much confirmed that I'm clenching my jaw at night. Surprised she didn't offer up any advice about it other than "less stress" rofl. Yeah... if only it was that easy. But came home and ordered myself a cheap mouth guard and will be getting that next week. Hopefully it helps though. I've been waking up…
-
Awww, I love all the photos! And good job dropping the ahole. You gotta do what you gotta do
-
No no please vent. I think it's interesting to hear what other areas are throwing out for ideas (seems to be about the same here). I just haven't seen any doable options out there. I mean, every other day school... might as well just keep it remote learning as far as I'm concerned.
-
Anyone else just absolutely frustrated at slow (if any) weight loss? Lost 60lbs, gained back 30 and now... my weight has been STUCK. I am trying to reduce stress, but not seeing my efforts (dieting and exercising) result in ANY changes on the scale or measurements is frustrating as hell.
-
Yeah I really think stress is causing my complete weight standstill. I'm deep breathing A LOT and it has helped. Unfortunately, we don't have the $$ for a staycation, but hopefully inlaws will be willing to take the kids every once in a while to give us (ME) a break. Just... BLEH! Stress. About to vent! Seriously thinking…
-
Alrighty. So this weekend was... well it involved a lot of alcohol while the kids were away. Sweet sweet silence. Sooooooo nice lol. I didn't cheat with anything bad either although I was tempted by popcorn. BUT I did eat a lot of fruit yesterday. Watermelon and pineapple and I'm pretty sure that along with some mushrooms…
-
I wonder if the stress is making my thyroid act up as well bc I've definitely been more tired. My levels have been steady since getting on the right dose of medication for it, but... Who knows. I dunno but I'm glad the deep breathing has helped with my stress. Super big hugs your way. Big hugs for everyone bc you're all…
