Weight was up a tad this morning. Will not freak out yet.

@elise4270 probably not broke. I couldn't even put any weight on mine

Mine has an app too but I deleted it. I just manually enter into the withings app.

@shanaber It's usually between 115 and 120. Of course it goes over 120 on at the doctor's (which is why I bought a home test). The PM sounds like it sits a lot like my bc implant except mine is in my arm. It's flat but I can feel the edges. Sometimes it startles me when I forget it's there and touch my arm 🤣

I've been taking my blood pressure weekly since I got my new scale. The scale doesn't take it but I dug out the machine I bought a while back. It's been going down a bit each week. I'm now at 108/68.

@shanaber I know ESPN is owned by Disney but beyond that I have no idea how their back end works. We stream through the app on Playstation 4. Never had an issue with Netflix or Amazon on there so have to assume it was Disney.

@Elise4270 I think if ESPN is having sports it makes Disney slower. The first time we watched it kept freezing and there was something on ESPN (UFC maybe?). The next time everything was fine but there wasn't anything sports on.

I miss Menards LOL

Some speed work in 90° heat this morning. 3.9 miles total. Hit all goal paces except one repeat. It was 1 min @ 9:04-9:24 x 5 then 1 min @ 8:19 - 8:39 x 4. 8 minutes feels easy when I do it for short distance. Don't think I'll ever do anything consistently at that pace. I'd like to get to average 9-10 minutes/mile in races…

@elise4270 If you like Star Wars watch The Mandalorian. Shameless was one of my fav shows! Not the same without Emmy Rossum. Still watch it though.

@shanaber I have salami cheese and crackers sometimes too. It's good to switch it up! I get bored after a while.

@Avidkeo oh that sucks but at least you know what it is and can make a plan to fix it.

From what the article said it sounded like they paid a 3rd party to get around the sanction. The article didn't try to open my camera.

Oh shoot I forgot who asked about calabacitas. It's corn, zucchini and peppers. I've found baby cucumbers at Costco before.

@ddmom0811 I like cottage cheese on salads in place of dressing. It adds some extra protein. I haven't bought any in a while since I'm the only one that eats it & the brands here aren't as good as the ones in Wisconsin LOL Maybe I'll pick some up next grocery trip.

@elise4270 I think you will find with any life insurance the payment is dragged out. Both my dad's and uncles took months to get paid. My uncle died in December and I didn't get the life insurance until June or July. My mom had the same with my dad's. Different companies too.

4 miles this morning. 62 for the month. Definitely won't hit 80. 75 might be doable. Not bad for a month with a week off from running. So far 90 miles across running, hiking and biking. Will be over 100 after running and biking this week. It was 86 at 5 am. Humidity was down to about 30%. It was still pretty gross out.

You can do that on the Fenix 5s. I looked at mine yesterday when I was being lazy & hadn't uploaded to strava. Ended up skipping my run today but did weights then hopped on the new spin bike for a 25 minute class.

@ddmom0811 If he leaves all that stuff at least you can make some money back selling what you won't use! I've done runbet before. It works to get me back into running. I never earned a ton (few bucks each time) but I never lost. I chased out a few months back because they are definitely geared towards beginners or those…

I couldn't get out for my run this morning. Woke up feeling tired, hot and sweaty. Looked at the temp (84 at 530 am) and decided to have coffee instead. I'll do weights later and maybe hop on the new spin bike or do another cardio workout. Maybe an evening run. With Garmin still down my training runs are whatever. Lol

My Mexican was... disappointing. I tried a new dish and will not be getting it again. It was steak, calabacitas and black beans. The black beans were delicious. Chips and salsa were delicious. I couldn't finish the calabacitas. And the steak was so tough I couldn't cut it with a sharp steak knife. And the queso fresco (2…

I have that hat. I called it a snack pocket 🤣 I love their trucker style hats. They are light and airy. I do get a bit warmer in a hat but I like protecting my scalp a bit & blocking the sun some from my eyes

I'm feeling very snacky today. We are getting Mexican tonight and I had a caloric lunch so I'm trying not to eat. I'm working on my photog biz so I'm sitting in front of the computer & I guess today it's making me think I'm hungry. Grrrr

Love that bling & shirt! I'm the same way, I don't open the package until I actually do the race.

I have a few headsweats but same as @elise4270 I have a child size head. I started wearing Oiselle and they work so much better for me because they are made for women. I would recommend their visor but it's sold out! They keep selling out of the black & I keep missing when it restocks. I have the orange but would like a…

Yesterday I made myself a margarita for National Tequila Day. I made my own because if DH makes it, he does a double and its soooo many calories

6 miles this morning. It's hot & humid and we haven't gotten a monsoon yet. Around 59 miles for July. @HonuNui Do you have a team for the dbacks race? I was looking at it yesterday since its virtual this year. Usually it's too crowded with walkers for me to venture downtown onna weekend. Lol

I figure I'll just wing next week based off of this week for running. I'm not really worried about anything. Even once they are back I suspect it will have issues with everyone's watch data trying to upload at once. Hopefully most people are understanding and don't lash out at employees when they can finally reach them.

Yah, I did that this morning. It's the workouts that haven't been sent to my watch that I will miss the most (and sleep tracking lol)

I have a mountain bike hanging in my garage. I keep saying I need to take it somewhere to look at it & make sure everything is 💯 It's very old. I bought it at 15. My most expensive purchase ever at that time. I saved up my money & rode it to drivers ed every day. It still has the original tires on it so I'm pretty sure…
