@tishsmith101 - I am sorry to hear that . I know you have been working hard toward that goal but like you said, may just have to push the timeframe out and a beach vacation is never bad to have to look forward to! @MercyRoth -even though the scale didn't reward you, I think its always good long term to resist some of these…

Thank you all for the prayers. Best support group and I appreciate all of you. My sister is home and recovering but should be ok . We're all just waiting for Friday for my Dad's second opinion. I logged into work at 7:00 am and literally got sucked into one issue after another , all of which were of course priority. I got…

Not going to weight today. Got up late, busy morning and had to eat something before work started.. Feeling a bit bloated today .. and woke up looking like a druggy. Dark sunken circles under my eyes. Not sure what that is all about! I slept 7.5 hours and stayed on the plan with calories/food choices yesterday. Guess its a…

@mytime6630 - welcome back. I hope your hubbys surgery is scheduled soon and all will be ok. That must be scary. Well done on your 8 lbs loss.

5/1- 167.0-no workout, DOMS hit hard ! very body sore by afternoon 5/2- 168.4 The two days of strength training hit me yesterday afternoon and I intended to get on the treadmill but that didn't happen as work was too busy. I only managed a 20 minute walk with the dog mid day. So the uptick is hopefully related to muscles…

Happy May- Love seeing all the spring things happening in the yard. JFT Cardio day after two hard strength training days with trainer Water Protein Get out for a walk in the sunshine today Get horses worked tonight, show prep

Happy May everyone, Things are looking pretty springy around here, blooms on the fruit trees as coming through and everything is getting green. We could use more rain to be honest, its been a bit dry. @ManifestingToday - thank you once again for putting the May group up for us. Hope your doing well and see you come back…

KobiHensley- you might get some negative feedback from some folks. It seems your really for it or really against it . I have been on these medications since last July. Its a game changer but it is also hard to go off them without gaining , as you might read, even if you titrate off. its crucial to use the time on the meds…

@pridesabtch - thank you. So far the trainer I am working with seems to be smart about form and she stresses injury prevention. I am also inspired by you. You have really made some great progress in a short time. You must be hiding some stellar metabolism ! I have always said I fight genetics with my weight , all my life.…

A mid day ramble Woke up to escaped horses. They had quite a time overnight. I am just glad they stuck around and didn't head into the state land nearby only to be maybe never seen again. We are backup to hundreds of acres of forest. Thankfully no one was injured and I am not sure how because one of them went over a 6 foot…

Bex953172- I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Give yourself some grace during this difficult time. Grief is a complex thing. Getting healthy and feeling better is hard work. It takes discipline more than motivation in my opinion. I can only speak for myself but maybe it will help you. My mental switch was realizing ( I…

@MercyRoth and @tishsmith101 exactly.. I didn't want to get into a huge expense . good to know that its not just me that got suckered in! I will finish my two remaining private sessions and go from there. The pressure to spend more is real and they use this " community and family" approach to get you more sucked in.. I…

@pridesabtch as women we put too much focus on seeing those numbers . I have been on the struggle bus or hamster wheel is what I refer to it as with my scale for a couple months.
