@cbabie cereal can be great! I love oatmeal actually, with fruit or nuts. I'm glad if all the sickness has passed. @fabgeekmom glad you're getting some sun, same here. Now we just need the temp to go up a bit! @trooworld sounds like a nice day. Calories- yesterday- eh not great lol. I just probably had too much ice cream…

Sweet dogs. I was looking at volunteering at an animal shelter here. I can't decide what I want to do with my time- volunteer, or something else like fun gym classes, or yoga classes. There is a line dancing class once a week that I'm interested in. But right now it's hard to find the time bc I started physio again, and I…

@fabgeekmom yeah the salmon- I get it lol. It was ok, but I wouldn't make it again. @trooworld what kind of art work is it? Like painting? I did ok with my calories yesterday. Saturday I splurged and had chips and dip. But I didn't have a drink, so I feel like it evened out lol. I think my soup turned out great, I'm…

@trooworld – great pictures! Both at the restaurant and the zoo. And congrats on the pants. You do so much fun stuff. I’m a real hermit, which is kind of a problem tbh lol. But I was looking at gyms and gym classes that I might like to join. I just have to get my hip sorted out first. I did have the salmon last night, it…

Hey @gemwolf110 love that picture! @fabgeekmom that’s great you can enjoy swimming so much, I wish I did. I tried to walk a little bit more one day this week to see if my hip had healed, but still had issues after. @trooworld congrats on your promotion! I used to manage people and didn’t like it lol. @cbabie I hope the…

It's been tough to stay motivated, just work stress more than anything else. But today is my monthly weigh in day, and it is trending in the right direction each month at least, even though there are some ups and downs. Calories yesterday: Goal: 1600 Actual 1522 Tracking Goal: At least 6/7 days; Tracked 7 -YAY. A big goal…

I was thinking of you guys all day lol. The struggle is real. I really wanted takeout or binge on junk food but I didn’t, just kept to my calorie limit. @fabgeekmom yeah it has been mild here, too. Yesterday I got out for a very short bike ride. Today was nice. There are winter birds here called buffleheads. They come in…
-
@trooworld that's a great walk! Looks like a great day. I'm jealous, I used to be able to walk like that. @fabgeekmom honestly I think I use the stress as an excuse. It’s kind of like- oh I deserve cheesecake bc the week has been hard! So I need to challenge my thinking. Or also I could do better portion control and just…

@deepwoodslady I'm sorry to hear about your friend. It's natural to struggle at this time. Be gentle with yourself. @atrooien god luck with the Achilles tendonitis. I had it off and on for years and finally had to give up running. It was difficult to say the least, but I reached a point where I couldn't cope with all the…
-
@fabgeekmom I get cabin fever too, I hate it. I always try to be optimistic that March will be spring. @cbabie I think mindset is key. I ask myself that a lot too, about living in the world. I hope the kids are recovering ok. Any activity you can do is good, all we can do is our best. @trooworld sounds like a nice walk.…
-
@iLive2Walk well I try to slack off at work as much as I can :D Back on track with calories yesterday. I need to incorporate the rehab/mobility exercises I do. I have tendonitis and some other problems. I'm very bad at sticking with my rehab plan and not overdoing it. I can't seem to accept that I have to go sloooooooow…

I didn't do very well with my goals over the weekend, but yesterday was better. Goal- 1600 Actual 1515. February Weighins Feb 5- 161.8. Feb 11- 159.2 Feb 12- 159 Feb 15- 160.2 Feb 17- 161.2 :( February goals: ** Weigh in weekly on Wednesdays. **Track calories every day. (Jan I averaged 5 days a week- trying to make it at…

@trooworld that is super cute! I love both of them. I think it's great if people can make things. I used to crochet blankets but I don't much anymore. @fabgeekmom good luck with the snow! We got a lot here over the weekend, and it's pretty cold today. The sun is out though, so that's nice. I don't mind the cold if it means…
-
I didn't make it to the park...it just seemed like too much walking for my hip, with the other errands I had to do yesterday. I have to plan everything so I dont walk too much, it's really irritating. I would go today but there is a big snowstorm. @trooworld I wasn't making anything fancy, just some pork meatballs with…
-
Doing pretty well, although I didnt weight myself the last couple days. But been on track for calories. Today I'll be out most of the day so will pick up sushi for a relatively light lunch. Goal- 1600 Actual 1567. February Weighins Feb 5- 161.8. Feb 11- 159.2 Feb 12- 159 February goals: ** Weigh in weekly on Wednesdays.…

@fabgeekmom getting a new haircut is always nice. @theslightedgeforever oh I'm sorry to hear about the surgery and your MIL. I hope you can take some time to rest and recover. @trooworld congrats on the loss! I've been reading a lot, too. I got that Scythe book. It's ok, fast read and keeps my attn well enough. Had…

We had a big storm here too last night. 15 or 20 cm of snow. I have today and tomorrow off, but I had an appointment downtown today which was cancelled. I'm kind of annoyed about it. They rescheduled for tomorrow, but I wanted to just have it today and then have the rest of the weekend for myself. So I have to replan. Glad…
-
Wednesday is my official weight day, but I checked today and it was 159.2! Woot! That was the lowest I've seen it in a long time. My goal in Jan was to reach 159.5 and I couldn't do it, but I guess I just needed a couple weeks. I have been working hard to make small changes, so it's nice to see some results. Now if I can…

I was slightly over calories yesterday, but better than the previous days. All in all I think I did better on the weekend than I typically do. My weigh in day is Wednesday but this morning I think I was 160? or 160.2? So that is down a bit. Goal- 1600 Actual 1591. February Weighins Feb 5- 161.8. February goals: ** Weigh in…
-
@trooworld sorry to hear you've been sick. Sounds awful. I did get into the chips and dip, but I portioned them out before, so it was a little better. @fabgeekmom hope your SuperBowl night went ok. I'm not into football either. I used to like baseball, but not really into that either much. I need to change my avatar.…

These are the pictures of the swans near me. As I said we have both mute and trumpeter- these are trumpeter (black beaks). They make sounds but very quiet honks. They are tagged from a conservation program to support the species bc it is depleted. They track them and do a bunch of stuff. The tags don't hurt them. This guy…
-
@theslightedgeforever well happy birthday, I hope you enjoy it. I'm turning 49 this year. I've started to think about what to do when I turn 50 besides cry lol. Maybe a trip. If only everything wasnt so expensive. @trooworld I was reading about voltaren bc I have arthritis too. Mine is still at a mild stage, though, so I…
-
Calories have been on track the last couple days mostly. My cals have been good the last couple days, just very slightly over. I've seen under 160 on the scale a couple times- which is really nice bc it's been forever since I've seen that. So I'm making turtle progress, but that's ok :) Today is a bit of a challenge bc…
-
@theslightedgeforever queen for a day sounds good. Is that Valentine's? Soup sounds good. I would throw some chickpeas in. @cbabie hope the little one recovers! @trooworld love the prints. Sage is the one spice I find drier is better bur yeah definitely have to add more than I think. @fabgeekmom man those sound like bad…
-
@iLive2Walk that is interesting about the oatmeal and yogurt. I like the overnight oats, but sometimes I want them for a snack in the evening and of course you have to prep before and let it sit. So I never do. I dont like the prepackaged ones. Anyway I was back on track yesterday with cals, although it was a bit of an…
-
@trooworld yeah I've had some very bad falls, down a flight of stairs, a couple on my bike. Most of it is me being careless. I've started to do some balance exercises, can start with stand on one foot 30 secs then the other. Then a bosu ball, then flip the bosu ball over. With the bosu ball is hard. I hope you heal up ok.…
-
I've kind of fallen off the wagon with this. Too much takeout, and some other junk food type stuff the last week. So I have leftover takeout today (Indian food which was really good, so I have to have the leftovers lol). But trying to get back on track with tracking calories and sticking to my calorie goals. I think partly…
-
This is a pic I took the other day in my walk. The Trumpeter Swans have yellow tags bc they are being monitored for a conservation project. I think the population was at risk and they are trying to increase it in the area. There are Mute Swans here, but they are invasive and kind of bullies to the Trumpeters. Lots of…
-
@fabgeekmom we have the same weather lol. Dreary here too. I may try to get out for a bike ride this morning, that is one thing I can do. @trooworld aw sorry about that fall. I'm a klutz so I've had a few falls and yep always feel dumb when people are there. I've been trying really hard not to fall right now bc my hip is…
-
I kept to calorie goals yesterday. I did try chatgpt and am trying to work on an exercise plan, but it is pretty basic rehab type stuff. I went to physio last fall for a couple months, but it's expensive so I don't want to go back right away. Not sure what my plans are today!
