Today has been from Hades…

2 hour appoint with joint implant dr only to be told keep doing pt for the knee implant (45 mins sitting in lobby, um NO. My time is important also.  I usually would have left & rescheduled but hubby would have been furious), patella tendonitis (um haven’t I been mentioning to the dr for 2 years that my knee hurts).…[Read more]

I’m a little behind on my protein and my water so far today.  I’ll have to step out up.

My kids lived at home for college so I  didn’t have the moving out moment quite as soon.  But it does make an impact,  and when the last one moves out is an even bigger impact.

Mid-week sweep!

Robin, I just hate that you are under this level of stress and uncertainty, but I applaud you for facing it head on. I think mindfulness is a great goal and I’m interested to hear how it’s going. I am getting some sense of it in your daily check-ins but do you have any “aha” moments you’d like to share?

Mid-week sweep! You have some ambitious goals here, but do-able.

From my understanding, the GMI is comprised of a lot of factors and not just your carb intake. It seems to reward you for having nutritionally balanced meals (so even if there are carbs in there, if it’s all starches and, say, no fruits or veggies over the course of a day you’ll get…[Read more]

Mid-week sweep! I like the fact that you aligned having to do lesson plans with scheduling out your healthy stuff. That’s working smarter, not harder!

How’s that coming along? Are you doing ok?

Hey Maria! Are you on vacay? If so, I hope you’re having an AWESOME time!

How are your goals going so far?

Mid-week sweep! How’s your goal going? Did you bring those healthy snacks into the job? Are you choosing them over the unhealthy ones?

Inquiring Nikkis need to know!

Mid-week sweep! (aka Nik checks up on you)

How’s it going? Have you been hitting your protein targets? Your exercise? Kudos for getting it done Sunday and Monday!

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going? Have you sorted the stressors in your life into those buckets? (I’m very impressed by this by the way…)

How’s that process going for you?

It’s supposed to rain here in central Texas but so far the sun’s still shining. I hope it will get here soon!

I also remember my children starting college. My oldest started Baylor the same week my husband started a new job. In Albuquerque. I was trying to get our house up for sale and get the two younger kids back to school. Not my favorite…[Read more]

First off, forgive any typos because I am doing this on voice text!

Regarding your question about cereal, am I remembering correctly that you did join good measures? If so, shoot an email to your dietitian through the platform. Tell her you are having a serial craving and you want to know what your best options are. She’ll probably respond with a…[Read more]

Truthfully, I keep hearing from another patient where I had my RNY that I need to be tracking my macro/ micro-nutrients & im bloody confused by it all.

So, at some point in September I will be signing onto Good Measures also.

Busy day finishing up my packing, etc. Already took my “baby” for boarding 😞. Later today I will be picking my mother-in-law up, then pick my husband up, stop home quick to load the car, and then drive to Hartford, CT to spend the night (1+ hours away) as our flight leaves early tomorrow morning.

So far today I’ve had scrambled eggs for…[Read more]

I started my day with a dental appointment and am now killing time at the grocery store until it’s time to pick up my husband’s prescription. I’m sitting in the former food court area drinking a free cup of decaf coffee.

Breakfast – none yet unless this coffee counts

Lunch will be the roasted turkey breast and olive spread I didn’t have…[Read more]

Hi!  Just got back from my trip to Delaware and I’m trying to get back into my routine!  Exhaustion does not help!  My eating was not great so I need to get that back under control, but I was much more active than normal so that’s good!

@liz-kelly check in!

A good day, met both my goals.

And somehow managed to eat exactly 1000 calories according to MFP! How crazy is that?

Today was busy! And I’ve had a headache all day.

I honestly am not thinking well enough to do a meaningful report back (my apologies!) but tomorrow is a new day.

Good night, my dear friends!
