Relax.

Enjoying the portion of my work schedule where I can relax over a few days off.

Went out to Target this morning and bought a Croc-Pot to replace a broken one. Will get the stuff for a pot of chili tomorrow. Great Protein source.

Heading to the gym in a few to get my daily dose of killer tunes, sweat and motivation from the folks doing work around me.

After that......maybe gonna see Concussion or Hateful 8.

Day of leisure.......about what my Cavaliers did last night.....played a game of leisure and got their butts stomped in an embarrassing way.

Sounds like the perfect day (aside from the Cavs losing). Keep up the great work!!

You're right Fatty. Every day gives us the opportunity to have a fresh start. The past is spent already and it's time to move on. Today I will do the best I can to (1) get in all my Water, (2) make sure I do all my Protein, and (3) exercise at least 30 minutes plus get 4500 steps in. After that, the rest will be gravy. Well, gravy is not the right term for my new lifestyle, so , the rest will be healthy. My secondary goals will be to hang around 900-1000 calories and ENJOY THE RIDE.

Love your optimism & outlook Fatty! :) Everyone needs a cheerleader now and then ... good to know you are in my corner.

Today my focus is on increasing my fluids & liquid Protein. Been sick the past few days and not yet back to solids (makes my tummy queasy still), but have had trouble getting in ANYTHING before now. Also bumping the walking back up after being so lethargic ... shooting for 8500 steps today.

Have a great one everyone!!!

Today I WILL exercise. Oh and I promise not to nap today. (Got laid off almost 3 weeks ago and I have allowed depression / feeling sorry for myself to beat me more than a few of those days.) There... I put it in writing so now I have to do it! :)

Just had a NUT appointment and she said I could move my calories up to closer to 1000. Woohoo! I have been staying closer to 800 to 900. Looking forward to seeing what healthy choices I can work in.

And I am headed off to my very first trip to Trader Joe's. Wish me luck!

Sorry to hear you got laid off and equally sorry to hear about depression. I suffer from depression as well so feel free to PM me any time you need to talk or vent.

Good luck at Trader Joe's!!!

One thing great about life is that another day starts anew every 24 hours giving us a chance to start over and make it our own.

Good luck everyone!!!

I'm happy (and very sore) to report that I shoveled all of our big driveway and it ONLY took 2 hours. Lol. But great exercise.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
