Can't believe I'm starting the thread - and so late in the day too! So, welcome everyone to the support thread for lifers and open to anyone else who wishes to join in.
It was a beautiful weekend on the East Coast. Temp went as high as 31 Celsius on Saturday. That translates into hot for you Fahrenheit fans.
DH was home for 10 short hours on Saturday and got a look at all of the changes in the bathroom since he left two weeks before. The room really is looking great. Only a few little things left - some plumbing and electrical work - before the trim goes back up and doors are hung. I'm not crazy about the wall colour, but given that we're happy with the rest of the work, this is a small concern. If I still feel the same way about it in the Fall, I'll just change it. The final leg of this construction job begins on Thursday - installation of hardwood floors in the remainder of the main level. I spoke with the guy this morning and they are amenable to working on the weekend which suits me just fine because I can't wait much longer to get my house - and life - back to normal.
Got about 10 minutes into my run this morning and realized I had forgotten my Ventolin and ended up having to cut it short due to an asthma attack. I've been pretty good about remembering but I was a little out of my regular routine this a.m. and it totally slipped my mind. Too bad, it was a beautiful morning for a run. I hope to make it up tomorrow morning, although it is supposed to rain
Laurel: How is maintenance mode treating you? I can't believe you're not hungry on 22 points a day. I would hate to think of how many points I consume on some days. The saving grace, of course, has been exercise, and I'm keenly aware that I could never eat that much if I didn't run regularly. Regarding bold type, I'm not sure how to explain this to you, but here goes. Immediately before the text that you want in bold, place a b in square brackets. Immediately after, place /b in square brackets. The slash turns the bold off. Hope this works for you.
lalala: Did you get nice weather on the weekend for gardening, etc? Try not to get discouraged about the scales. From what I hear, it's difficult not to come back a little heavier from those research trials - kinda captive to someone else's menu, aren't you.
Melissa: Did you get lots of walking in over the long weekend? I seem to recall you were going out-of-town. Hope it was enjoyable.
Hello katie and Austingal. Hope everyone is enjoying the Memorial Day holiday.
