I drove yesterday!  Woo hoo!  My spinning head and shakiness are improving slightly every day, so I was able to drive to the nursery in the country, and buy some mums.  Still not comfortable driving in heavy traffic, but it feels so good to get in a car and go.

Scott came over again today to help me move some furniture and cat stands to better pl…[Read more]

Today is cross training day and so off to the gym to work with my trainer.   I then have a few errands to run and back home.  Plans are to work in my craft room and maybe a little time at the pool.  We have had temps 98-99 the past week and mid 90’s for the next few days before a cool front finally dips south next week with temps in the low 80…[Read more]

Okay — I got back on this evening and realized the post I never posted the message I typed out this morning.  Obviously I didn’t have my act together!!! Haha!!  Oh well — I had said I was going to work in my craft room unless my husband had other plans and yes — he had other plans so my craft room has been moved to tomorrow.  Oh — I hope th…[Read more]

Thanks @nikki-massie!!! I figured that out yesterday and have ordered them.

The week is going great so far.  I’ve gotten at least 85 grams of protein every day and usually more.

I scheduled my gym appointment a d I’ve been working on my resume.

PT is going well. I’ve made measurable progress.

Woo hop

Today I am feeling a little less guilty, stressed, anxious and negative. In fact I started feeling a little better yesterday after I picked up my grandson and seeing his smiling face and the I love you’s and kisses from him. My son played hockey all through college and yeah, you’d think I’d be used to injuries (and still plays occasionally) and he…[Read more]

Yay @nikki-massie!!!!

Thanks @lissam124!!!

Thanks for checking in on me!! This week has really taken a toll on me. Needless to say, most of my plans weren’t accomplished. I did manage to make all of my dinners except the one on Tuesday (turkey meatball stroganoff). It’s ironic that I mentioned the curve ball above and it actually did happen in a big way. I’m still not quite over the guilt…[Read more]

I ordered your card and thought there’d be a way to email it to you…but I think they are actually physically sending me a card. (Oy!)

When I get it, I’ll forward to you. Congrats again!

MID WEEK SWEEP!

I’ve been keeping my walking commitment. Cross-training, not so much. I need to get labs drawn because I swear at the end of the day I am DRAINED.

Also something is going on with my neck on the same side as the shoulder that is messed up (on the same side as the most extensive work was done during my mastectomy). So…the…[Read more]

MID WEEK SWEEP!

I gotta tell you, you have been like a ray of sunshine for me this past week or two. You’ve just been so upbeat! Please don’t ever underestimate how empowering and motivating that is for others – especially me!

How are things going? It sounds like you are doing well. We just have to figure out how to get you to the gym without…[Read more]

MID WEEK SWEEP!

You’ve been kinda quiet, which probably means you’ve been super busy. I hope your plan has been going ok. Report back when you can.

MID WEEK SWEEP

How’s your recovery coming along? Is PT going ok?

Seems like you’ve been at or near your eating targets, which is awesome! Can’t wait to hear how everything else is going.

MID WEEK SWEEP

So I was a little worried about you. I know you took your grandson’s fall very hard. I hope that you are feeling better about that. It doesn’t sound to me like it was your fault, but that he’s a little boy and little boys sometimes hit their heads (or worse).

How have you been this week? I look forward to hearing about where you…[Read more]

MID WEEK SWEEP!

So from what I’ve seen you’ve been holding up ok, despite the fact that you still don’t know 100% what’s up with hubby’s job. I’m so proud of you.

Have you been doing that workbook? And what about your other goals for the week? How are those coming along?

@thinkhealthy you have to get the workbooks at her website, http://www.amihungry.com

That is a good question!!!  The main thing is she holds me accountable but I guess because I pay for it I make sure I am there.  We have also become friends and I enjoy talking with her while I’m working out.  As I sit here and think about it and try to answer the question — the main thing that keeps coming back is accountability.  Nothing tha…[Read more]
