Hope everybody is having a great start to Memorial Day weekend. It was a long hard week so glad to have made it to Miller time, lol. I’ve been doing well with tracking, I just need to work more exercise back in, take back some time that the new job took. I’m disappointed that the MIL turned out to be the way she is. I…

@trooworld glad you recovered that you can go back to work but that’s too bad about the bad night of sleep. sleep deprivation is the worst. When that happens to me, sometimes it feels like a nightmare to go through the day.

@cbabie sorry to hear about your depression. I have it too and have for most of my life. I’ve been down to the bottom and up again over and over. Just do not give up, keep striving towards your goals.

@theslightedgeforever well that is good that your food part, the most important part, is going well. I’m doing well with food too and seeing losses but I’m impatient. I want to add in regular workouts, been sidetracked with new job. That’s a good idea about taking pics of food to track later.

Well my husband’s NM (narcissistic mother) ruined Mother’s Day but hopefully that will be the last holiday or even day that she ever ruins for us again as my husband has now blocked her and all of her other minions in the family. I told him it’s time for you to be free. I pray he can stay strong.

@trooworld so glad you’re feeling better!

@cbabie Hugs 🫂

@trooworld i need to start reading the latest posts first! Too bad about the flu but so glad you’re feeling better.

@roz0810 thats fantastic! I love being in a good place with weight loss. This am at doctor’s it was a scale victory and NSV all at once because not only was the scale down, I wasn’t afraid to look! For years I would look away.

@trooworld so sorry to hear you’re still sick, hope you feel much better soon! Did you get tested for covid or flu?

Happy Mother’s Day to all who celebrate! I hope you are all treated like queens. Well, I was able to catch up on my rest last night. I was completely bushed yesterday but luckily, there was a nice field by the concerts, where I just took a quick nap in the grass and everybody else took cat naps in Adirondack chairs that…

@theslightedgeforever that’s great about the healthy eating! And that’s good about you and your hubby losing weight together now. I know you can get to goal! Definitely, with all the healthy, eating and exercising you’re doing, you’ll be there before you know it.

@trooworld oh no, I’m so sorry to hear you’re not feeling well. I hope you feel much better soon.

First pic is a drone shot of the camping weekend, second two are from this weekend

So this weekend we are on the third weekend away in a row, and all of us are desperately looking forward to a weekend of pure relaxation and doing nothing next weekend. I’m also ticked off because we’ll still be on the road tomorrow morning, and if I had had my kitchen, I could’ve made us all a nice brunch, I don’t mind…

@trooworld no definitely don’t give up. I have been there more times than I can count. The only reason I’m losing weight now is because I kept on trying different things. Actually more specifically, i’m doing some thing that I never did before. Maybe look through different diet plans and find something totally new and…

@cbabie that’s great that you got on the treadmill. Yes, it will make you feel so much better having that time to yourself and working out. keep getting more you time!

@trooworld oh, no, that’s awful about getting bit. Hope the dogs can get along better. Sorry also to hear about your rough day at work. I’ve been having rough days at work lately too.

@cbabie congrats on the weight loss! too bad about your stomach, hope you feel better tomorrow and can go on the treadmill. Wow, it sounds like a lot of parenting duties fall on you. Do you have any family or babysitters that can help you get more time to yourself and rest up? and yes, it was so beautiful out there.

@trooworld that’s a good point about cooking more to avoid the cost of restaurants. Just about all restaurants are way too expensive nowadays. even McDonald’s! Yes, it was a camping and hiking weekend. There were shorter hikes, but against my better judgment I always like to do the most challenging one. And yes, having to…

@gemwolf110 that’s great you had such a productive weekend. Wow, you are really on the ball with tracking too, doing both MFP and WW. When I was doing WW, I always struggled to stay under their points but I find MFP easier.

So the pictures are what I did this weekend (Raystown Lake, PA), and where I did a 17 mile hike. I was still hurting from the half and I got dehydrated but I got through and was so worth it. Great people on the trip too. So much fun.

@trooworld great pictures of the orangutans at the zoo! I love the one with the orangutan peeking out from under the covering.

@trooworld hope you enjoyed the blueberry chicken salad. It sounds like you’re doing a lot of cooking, which is definitely a healthy thing. We’ve been away for the past two weekends, and will be away next weekend too. Weekends are the time that I do cooking for the week. So I’m looking forward to two weeks from now when I…

@theslightedgeforever when my hubs says stuff like that I’ll straight up tell him shut up, but laughingly. That’s great you found out a good way to exercise without aggravating your foot pain. And you’re doing great with the healthy eating. Regardless of your hubs comments, don’t let him stop you. Does he have some kind of…

@cbabie that’s great that you bought a treadmill. Makes it so much easier to work out without going anywhere. And yeah, you could even do it while carrying your baby. And thanks about the half, I’m glad we finished.

@trooworld That's great that you went back and tracked the foods - 100% better than not tracking at all. And that's great you got to sleep in. And yeah, I'm sure the non-stop rain caused his blister. Thanks, I'm proud of us - especially him. His first race! Looking forward to 5Ks after this. @theslightedgeforever Thanks.…

@gemwolf110 Yes, Happy May. I hope things go well at your Mom's follow-up appointment. And thanks - every race is different. I'm glad we went out there and got that far - a lot of people just turned back less than a mile in. And there were good parts of it.

Hi, everyone. So the half marathon was here today at long last. It was pouring down rain all day long. And my so-called rain jacket did nothing against the rain. But my son and I pushed on. Our spirits weren’t that great at first, but as we approach the halfway point we felt better and more motivated. We started having a…
