Yesterday ended up being amazing. I went to an event with The Minimalists. My sister wasn't able to go so I invited a random person from the meet up group. The event was amazing and Terri and I got along like we had been friends forever. Today my son and I are going out to lunch.

Feeling better today. I didn't get up until 11. However, I did get dressed, ate breakfast, fed and watered the cat and went food shopping. Now I need to do the laundry and then I will mostly be caught up.
Sheesh, forgot to put this.

Sounds like a productive day!
Your bar graph is looking good! Congrats.
Second time writting this post. Was almost finished when I somehow deleted it.
I've been eating too late at night. I know it's not healthy to eat just before bed. It does leave me foggy in the morning. On top of that, I've had a few days of big time sadness.
I'm on vacation for me. It's my birthday week. I realized last week that the only people I have to spend it with are my sister and son. My sister is up north closing on her house and seeing her neurologist. My son is up to his neck in alligators with school and work.
Okay, that's my moment of pitty party.

Alas, I consume the majority of my calories late, usually in bed, bingeing on medical dramas. Have read study after study that says calories more efficiently burned daytimes.
Happy Bday this week! you know, even if you cannot be with them to celebrate, you can chat on the phone with them. then, in better timing, you will celebrate when everyone can be there. things get in the way; but i am sure you all will find a good day to celebrate soon. <3 being crazy with covid times; and people somewhat busier now; i never really have plans for my bday, especially if during the week i do not celebrate until a weekend.
Still taking care of me. Yesterday I got my veggies and fruit as the rain held off. Today I finished my other shopping. Small victory, no sweets in my basket.
Now I'm trying to get my appartment straightened out. The clutter and mess increase my anxiety.

Finally under 150.
My reaction to the crazyness at work is causing a lot of stress. Ended the work day yesturday with savoring half a chocolate bar. Threw the other half in the trash. A trick I learned from a friend.
It's almost noon so I guess I should get out of bed.
Today is clean out the refrigerator because tomorrow is shopping day. I should probably make Saturday my farmers market day. Walking in the fresh air would give me exercise and a destress. For some reason everything hurts today and I am feeling my age. I'm sure the age thing is my upcoming birthday.
Wow, I've been up for almost an hour and haven't had my coffee. Hugs to all, just because.

Need to clean fridge too.
Maybe you ache because of all the stress that you've been under this week. That is to say that the mental stress has manifested itself physically.
Hugs to you too - hope you've had a cuppa by now :-)
Forgot to weigh yesterday. Oooops.
Today has been good. My sister and I had brunch together. I'm glad we are back to being friends. We're 5 years apart so my high school years were difficult for both of us.
The Samantha beast. Excuse all the fur by the wall.

i also didn't get along well with sister like ever. we think too differently. but we get along now, although not close. we are both in late 30's. 3 years apart.
My boy cat is black. My girls are brown tabby (Old Kitty) and then a tortie (Baby Kitty).
Good day today food wise. Work wise, lets just say I need more anger management help, but at least I didn't hurt my co-worker. Now I get to be home with the fur ball.
Be safe and make good choices.

Work is sometimes aggravating yes! it really depends on who your coworkers are! :)
What’s your fur baby?
What kinda job do you have? My most recent regular job was teaching high school.
I'm a nurse anesthetist doing sedation for an office practice. I've been there 2 years. Love the docs and the patients but I have 2 co-workers who don't seem to understand that I'm responsible for the patients until they leave. 2 years and my son is done with college. Then I retire for real.
I have 3 cats and they all love my daughter.
How much does your kitty weigh?
Well here’s hoping those coworkers of yours wise up soon enough!
Rescued her last August (2020).
I have two dogs - one is mine and the other thinks he is (he belongs to my husband). I have had cats all my life - my husband says NO.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
That was me today. Didn't do well when I offered to buy pizza for the team. We worked hard and I thought we could all use some lunch. Should have known that was a bad idea. At least I didn't feel like burrying my co-workers. That's an improvement.
Stay safe and make good choices.

First entry
This is my attemp for accountability. I have always been at the upper end of the healthy/fat weight chart. At 69 next month, it is time for me to be my best. At 5 even, I know that the weight I carry is too much.
I am mostly eating clean. No sugar, grains, legumes or processed foods. Well that's the goal.
Be safe and make good choices.

I look forward to reading about your journey. This is a great place to be accountable and get helpful feedback. I hope you think so, too! :-)
I was 5’2” and shrunk down to 5’1”. Read that most women lose 2 inches from 30-70 & I’m right about in the middle. Not sure if spinal discs compress or what. Sucks! So when I’m your age I will be as little. That’s life!

I looked into MeetUp several years ago, and there was nothing local. Most groups met up at a town that is about 45 minutes (drive) away. However, I just finished a book that also mentions MeetUp, and perhaps it's time I revisited that.

MeetUPs, something I should look into....
