I keep falling behind-- 17- hold myself back because I procrastinate everything!

18- I wanted to write a book...have started and stopped several times (see #17).

b-side ?-- drink more. FEEL BETTER!

B-side - Traditionally, I go for soup when I'm sick and I crave popsicles then too...so I'm going to have to say fluids. I haven't had to address this post surgery yet.

DAY 18: Idea I'd like to Persue: Becoming a writer. I love to read and would love to write a book about nothing some day!

B-side question: drink more when I'm sick, then lay in the bed miserable all day!

Good morning and evening ( @ummyasmin & @RoRoKitty) beautiful people!!!

How is everyone doing lately?

Good morning- miserable- hit another stall since last Tuesday (that's two in less than 6 weeks) ...waaaaaaaah. Other than that great. Exercising a lot more and feeling good. how is your reflux- i saw another post you said you were having issues with it due to "lower quality" water

Stalls are the worse... They test your sanity.

Reflux is low-level so not terrible. It is only from water after all.

Hello hello! I'm doing well, although my weight keeps bouncing back and forth and I'm up today! Oh well, tomorrow is another day.

What am I grateful for today? I leave for a 5 day vacay starting tonight! So happy to be off work! Woo hoot!

B-Sides questions:

Do you eat or drink more when you are sick?

I have a Cold? Flu? Mix? Lol

It’s a mix depending on type of virus. Sometimes I’m ravenous and other times I can barely keep down small sips. I hope you’re feeling better soon ?

19) what I’ve made that I’m most proud of is a relatively happy home.

Honestly, I haven't made progress on the scale....but I'm at one of those weights that is an old set point. So, I'm working to out-stubborn the darn thing. But this week, I noticed my thighs seem to have done a bit of disappearing. I don't think the scale necessarily keeps up with all the rest of the activity going on with my body's changes.

19. I'm with DanaC84. I am proud that I've made my home my home. Also some of my artwork. Oh, and yes, some of my poetry.

19. I'm proud that I've taken a commitment to take care of myself not just physically but mentally and emotionally to. I found a therapist I love and see her once a week. I also go to the post-surgery group at my surgeon's office.

Also, update on my goal for the month. Now that I have the full fitness clearance I'm back on track with three workouts a week. Eventually, I'd like to work myself up to more.

B-Sides questions:

Favorite (non food/non exercise) thing about spring?

20. One small thing that brings me joy...my dogs who aren't small but they always bring me joy.

B-side: I love the longer days, the warming weather, and seeing the things I've planted appear and be alive.

Yoga is hard to fit in...harder than I thought...but I do make it to the gym at least 6 days a week. On that note, I am going to do wide legged forward fold and maybe some Goddess before I unfold.

Good morning and evening ( [mention=348975]ummyasmin[/mention] & [mention=350877]RoRoKitty[/mention]) beautiful people!!!

Awwwww good morning to you too gorgeous (to be fair, it's evening where I'm sitting). Don't you wish we had Star Trek transporters so we could beam over for a visit and a cuppa.

The smell of grass being cut. They've started doing it again after winter and it's glorious.
