Feeling: fitness assessment today so I want to really rock it, and my weight is down again today. Work was busy last night so I hope it is a little quieter tonight. So a little anxious and worried about my trainer coming to an end, now I have to pay for having a trainer, 15 hours free was great. Anyway I am doing good and will let you know how things went tomorrow.

You're doing great! So glad to hear things are working.

So I'm definitely getting my strontium in today, as I had a dairyless dinner and took my last calcium batch 4 hours before bed (so iron 2 hours before and strontium at bed time)... I'm quite enjoying having sleeping through the night as a problem to deal with!!   It's weird how the DS has changed that for me - a bonus I didn't start to experience 'til more than 18 months out.

I know I've gotta get more protein in, even if it's through the power of pistachios... I just gotta work on it!!

Work it, babeee!
