Topic: What's on your Thursday Menu?


Good Morning from me and my kitties. One of them is in the proverbial dog house with Grim, so I had to give them a little shout out and love today.

Nothing too exciting happening with me today. Lots more meetings and stuff to get done today. I'll be out on Friday and Monday because we'll be attending a wedding in Minneapolis. I can't believe how quickly this wedding crept up on us. I have never been to MN and I have no idea if there is anything fun to do near where we're staying. We'll have some down time on Saturday morning and again on Monday, but I haven't done more than a cursory google to find things to do. I hope the wifi works well on the plane, because I think that's when I will have time!

QOTD: Weights or cardio? I never really liked any weightlifting activities and would much rather go for a run any day. I'd probably really benefit from some weights work, though.

Accountability: I was not even a little bit hungry yesterday and I ran with it and didn't eat anything yesterday until dinner, when I had the bun-less hot dot at the game. Somehow I managed to gain .5oz nonetheless :/

My tummy is grumbling and I feel a little off this morning (I'm sure it's Wegovy related) so I am having a hard time thinking about a menu today. I'm sipping my Fit Frappe Mocha in hot coffee now, and might just stick with that until dinner again.

I've taken the preferring for years, and my ferritin was 375. The ham probably helps too.

So before infusion my ferretin was 6!

After infusion it was 49 (normal range but still pretty low).

I got my infusion late Dec early Jan and by June-July I was feeling the dizziness again. I knew it's going back down. By luck I saw Grim's answer to somebody about vitamins and his mention of Proferrin. I figured I have nothing to lose. In a span of one week of taking one every day the dizzy feeling went away.

I've been getting dizzy lately and that is NOT fun. Mine is caused by inner ear issues since I was sick last month and I've been swimming. I don't need any more dizzy in my life. What were your Ferritin levels before infusion and now?

Nice job on the bloodwork.
Def start with Proferrin and don't let your ferretin go any lower. I used to get so dizzy just getting up from my chair or the couch and now nothing.

G'morning all!

I am so ready to do some shenanigans! I feel after a couple of weeks of living "demurely and considerate" I need to let loose and do some shenanigans.

Did anybody watch the DNC last night? When Michelle O'bama walked on stage I got teary eyed before she even started. I sure miss that couple at the White House. She also sent some zingers to the Orange one that were spot on.

QOTD - i do my food shoppings in person at the stores, the rest is all online. Infact when I was in SD visiting my son, I went to a mall (just to kill time) and I was totally overwhelmed when I walked into one of my favorite stores where I usually shop online. I even got on my phone to look at the selections online because there was just too much and too many sizes in front of me.

My meals yesterday:

  • Coffee
  • Tuna, hb eggs, quest chips
  • Cherries, jerky
  • Protein icecream - coconut
  • E: strength training

Happy hump day!
