OK

26 degrees

i am cold dammit

HOWEVER., i feel horrible about the NY area where the lake effect snow is approaching 6 feet...WTF......

what is lake effect snow anyhow?

Girl...this just cracked me up. OK, here's your weather lesson for today. Lake effect snow happens when cold air goes over large bodies of Water such as the Great Lakes where this is happening now. Since the Water is warmer than the air, the moisture is carried by the cold air over the ground and dumps said moisture as snow. So while Buffalo and surrounding areas are hit with huge snowfalls, it's mainly in certain areas rather than over a larger area.

I remember many years ago, working with a vendor in Ireland and having to explain that Buffalo NY was very very different than New York City where I was. They thought the snow was falling in the city and were worried that we were getting buried. I clarified that NY is a big state and Buffalo was hundreds of miles away...lol.

I also saw about Buffalo NY , Texas , Boston & other parts of the state's , so far so good in California , I only have to wear a sweater , not a heavy warm coat or jacket , I feel for everyone that has to be that cold or deal with the white(snow) stuff since We don't have our extra warmth on our bodies any more & We don't stock our bodies with food for the winter any more & hibernate like we used to LOL.

I'm sitting here in my living room wearing jeans and a sweater. On top of the sweater is my sweatshirt. Last night I wore a flannel nightgown and slept under two quilts. As Debbie said, I've got no body fat anymore and am cold all the time. Even now, my hands are freezing and I've had my socks on since yesterday.

So glad that I am heading to South Florida on Saturday for Thanksgiving. At least I'll be warm down there....

Liz, I was picturing you as a meteorologist in front of a screen explaining lake effect weather -- so funny! Shovel off to Buffalo, geesh, that is really something. I'm definitely noticing the cold this year and want to get one of those big sleeping bag coats. Problem is, I think I will only get a year out of it as I want to lose another chunk. What to do, what to do! Loving these problems, really. We are all so lucky. Have fun in Florida!

Cold is a real problem. I am freezing and it is only in the 30's. This is going to be such a long winter and it hasn't even started....well here anyway. End of last winter I had a rough go with the cold and that was somewhere around 60lbs ago. I hate to be a complainer but I am legit cold. I rarely used to wear long sleeves until now. I wear pajamas and a sweatshirt to bed.

i almost feel bad complaining about the weather here in AZ it's certainly chilly in the am as i leave for work in the low 40's i haven't replaced my coat yet so i'm huddled in a fleese.. but by the end of the day and the low 70's have shown their face i'm feeling a little better...

what is with this new feeling i now have.. being cold sucks but i'll take it any day from being over heated and near heat stroke from just walking from my car to my office..

for those of you in the snow.. go out and make a snow angel :) but stay warm... happy almost thanksgiving to you all

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
