Hello gang,
we are doing about as well as one can expect on this trip. Lots of emotion, lots of sibling what to do next discussion. My wife was at the hospital for the day and my daughter and I went out to shop. I bought shorts yesterday and noticed I dropped an inch - Down to a size 34. The 35 looked too baggy for me, so now I need to keep it this way. I am wearing a large Polo shirt which to me feels tight since I am use to loose/ very loose but my wife says I look great.
ate a huge rainbow trout - shrimp dinner last night at a New Orleans type restaurant last night, which was awesome. Today I am taking my daugter on a college visit to Rice University - yes she is a smart ambitious girl. Then we will hit a museum.
Teri Ouch on the knee. I hope you feel better quickly.
USC Sounds like a wonderful day with your DD.
Ciecie Yay for you! My DH only had a sore arm, too. No other effects.

March 16
Psalm 33:21
For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
The Psalms are a wonderful example of what it means to put trust in the Lord. David shared both his trials and his triumphs with his God. In every situation, David turned to God for guidance and support. David was a spiritual giant because he recognized the source of all that he was and could ever hope to be. We can be like David. If we will turn to God for His strength and courage in the face of our trials, He will provide for our every need. When we diet, we can rejoice in the fact that God will honor and bless our trust in Him.
Today's thought: The diet I keep will bring me joy and fulfillment!
Scale not moving. Figures since I did have some shots this weekend - no matter what I do, if I have more than 2 drinks I retain like 3 pounds of water. All the sweating I did during yesterday's step workout should have made a dent, but due to extra water it didn't. I don't learn
I am at work today...feels good to be in the office! Last night I did have a snack of a piece of deli ham and slice of swiss. Finished day under calories.
Rachel yes, cats are very spicy I love them so much! What happened to Larry?
I have a question: those of you who use Leslie Sansone, does it help you lose weight or just pretty much maintain? Considering her, but not sure it would be better than Jenny Ford's step workouts.
I am trying a new breakfast - Quaker overnight oats (toasted coconut & almond) we'll see how it goes lol if I like it I may try my own version since this one has a little more sugar than I think necessary. 11 grams. Calories are around 310 and carbs 44...protein only 12. Not sure it's for me yet...so carby! Back to work for me! I have my gym slot at 5:30 tonight!
HI Ho Hi Ho my wonderful chicks and rooster!
I have been lurking for the past week or so, I almost feel like a peeping tom
Everyone seems to be doing great! Even with the few struggles and ups and downs
For me WI I am down just a bit and (this is bad) I have not worked out for almost 2 weeks now. I have had a constant sinus issue with runny/stuffy nose, dry tickle in my throat and fatigue from unable to sleep. I even spoke to my Dr. about it when I went for check up on b/p meds. He did not seem the least bit concerned. Syckgirlsfv it is good to see you again! Diana there is nothing wrong with taking a break from weigh in. This past month I have been trying to weigh only a few times a week hoping it would reduce the daily stress Usc, congrats on the size down and fingers crossed about the new position Rachel, how are mom and dad? Did you get both of your covid shots yet? Teri I have to say compared to where you were at the first of the year you have really stepped up your game girl! ciecie, you are as active as ever and I think this is the first time I ever saw you post you binged wow. btw leslie sandome is awesome...walk walk walk Change how old is your autistic child if you don't mind me asking? Are they in a group setting or something else? I am just curious as I use to work with autistic children and I have a grandson who is autistic Jen & Larry hello to you both
I'm having a cup of Dennison's turkey chili with beans with a small amount of light sour cream. Had some fresh cherries as a snack. the chili wasn't very much - I might need more of a snack. I do have some protein puffs in nacho cheese flavor I can eat.
I don't usually eat canned chili because of the sodium...I feel like today is going to also be a higher carb day than usual but I do need fuel for my weight lifting tonight!
Good evening! Power walked to and home from lunch. Will put walk to my meeting tonight. Will run an errand on my way to my meeting and possibly on the way home. 😷🍀😁❤️
Syck: Boarshead have really good products. I like their fancy mustard.
Usc: So sorry, I did not know that your mother in law is in the hospital.
Nancy: Yeah...I doubled my workouts...but now I am a little incapacitated by the knee..
Rachel: I biked 40 again, today. Mostly I pedal a 180 degrees and then go backwards. But I do full 360 circles occasionally. I started doing some knee exercises, too.
CieCie: Gene Kelly origins lie in PIttsburgh, PA. Occasionally, someone complains that there are no statues around to honor his contributions to dance and film. I once saw a statue of a man with an umbrella and I thought that would make a nice statue of Gene Kelly for Pittsburgh.
Hi, back at the hotel and things are not looking really good for my mother-in-law. she is back in the ICU and her blood pressure dropped significantly. My daughter and I are at the hotel room waiting to hear what is next. She has been suffering for awhile and wonder if this may be her time. Please keep thoughts and prayers with us.

. How does it feel today?
I love them so much! What happened to Larry?
