    I am doing a puzzle currently, there is no way I will finish it today. I get the border done then my ADHD kicks in! I should have tackled one with less than 1000 pieces.
    Skipping the gym today, I went everyday his week. It looks like a nice day so I’ll go for a walk.
    B side, Thankfully I don’t think I’ll need plastic surgery.
    Off topic, I could really use some music suggestions for the gym. I like a wide variety of music, I’m just getting bored with my playlists. I have Spotify so I have a lot to choose from.

    10. Ok got push ups in and did Child's pose and downward dog for yoga.
    Bside - Yes, I'm contemplating plastics. No decision until I hit maintenance and see where I'm at. Most likely tummy, upper thighs, and boobs.
  5. Congrats!

    Yes. I actually just made a definitive decision on this subject today and cleared it with Mr. tonite.
    I've decided to get an arm lift and a Tummy Tuck at the same time, and to get it done this August-September IF I can get to goal and stay there for a couple months before then. Otherwise, it will have to wait until January, which is the next best time to fit it in with my schedule.
    The surgeon I chose has an option to post-pone a scheduled surgery date (with 2 weeks notice) at no extra cost so long as I pre-pay 50% of the total fee at booking. Given that he books about 5 months out, I think this is the best plan/contingency plan for me. So next step would be to book and plop down my prepayment on Monday. Yikes.
    Though as I type this, I am still thinking and re-thinking this. I have about 13 lbs left to goal, and I am banking on the fact that the rest of my body stays in a satisfactory shape so that I continue to only want arms and tummy done and not anything else.

    May Day #10:
    10 pushups: Still feeling sick, I didn't want to do 10 pushups, so I did 5 this morning and 5 just now. And they weren't very well done either. But thats my 10 for today, so there. Yoga: I didn't go to class last night, and I wrote off today for any classes as well. I did, however, do a couple cat and cow poses, as well as 1 good 60 second-ish child pose after this evening's set of 5 pushups just to stretch. And that's my yoga for today, so there. I think I'm grumpy.

    Day 10. I went to a yoga class that was more advanced than I am, but I hung in there.
    Had a really good week overall, looking forward to the weekend.

    Day 9. Ok 10 push ups completed and a 5 minute meditation via Calm.
    Bside - I was told no caffeine initially. Then we were allowed to have 1 caffeinated beverage a day provided we were getting our fluids in. That was about a month post-op. Mostly, I've been decaffeinated. And coffee....that means sugar and cream to me so I haven't been having any...but tea has always been my favorite.

    Only for the first month - six weeks but not because of caffeine. Because of the acidity. Same as why I couldn’t do fruits (other than bananas)

    Day 9) meditation. I REALLY need it but haven’t done any yet. Today and tomorrow are going to be stressful getting my mom ready for her Drs appointment tomorrow . Bathing, hair washing , etc today and tomorrow just the physicality of actually getting her there, into the office and and home. So much we take for granted! It seems like such a small thing, doesn’t it? Drs appointment , no big deal 🥴
    I think I’m going to check out that Calm app as well. It’s one of the top suggestions in Apple health.

    It is expensive. If you get a free trial make sure you check out the master classes. The two I found really helpful were mindful eating and pillars of health. I mostly use the sleep stories to help me fall asleep. Matthew Mcconaughey narrates one that knocks me out in 5 minutes.
    My son uses headspace and he likes that one, I’ve never tried it.
    I have ADHD and an advanced monkey mind, the app does help me chill.

    Lol ... or someone like me who looks fit, but it's all an illusion. When I run errands in yoga pants and sneakers people might assume I'm heading to the gym afterwards. Nope, headed to my couch
