AV, so sorry you have to deal with all that. Parenting is so hard sometimes. Stick to your guns and protect your baby. Looks like a great day out to help focus your mind.
My weekend feels like it was hectic but not sure I did a whole lot. Oh, I did sign up for my first 5K, going to buy some new sneakers tonight and my training program begins tomorrow. The whole family is doing it together, so it should be fun.

Good morning and happy Monday everyone. I am sorry you are dealing with a bully AV but go get em' Tiger Mom. Hoping it all turns out well and soon.
I went on a four day camping adventure. So exhausted this morning. I was constantly on the go with hiking, swimming, and generally being on my feet. The event was small with only about 70 attendees so I really had an opportunity to work with folks one on one. That is great in many ways but also emotionally exhausting. I feel like I need four days of sleep to catch up. I was surprised at how hungry I got and how often until I realized I was burning calories like crazy and my body was just letting me know I needed fuel to keep my engine running. I packed lots of high protein low carb low fat low sugar things and so I always have something to grab on the go. Mozzarella knots, salami, pepperoni, Oatmega bars, Light & Fit Greek yogurts, and grapes were always at hand. Weighed in this morning and was at 133, exactly where I was when I left, which was awesome. I didn't want to lose while I was there. Maintenance is challenging but I am doing pretty good.
Photos in honor of my missing Photo Friday:
From this angle the photographer managed to catch me without any weird dangles of skin. No idea what I was thinking about...
Tent camping for me. Thought I was going all Diva and getting a spot in the cabin but it turned out to be super fun to really 'rough' it. There was still a full kitchen, ho****er, bathrooms, and a coffee maker two feet from my tent so....wasn't too rough.
The event photographer caught the glory of the arm skin. Uhg. But...I look like I was all kinds of excited about whatever story I was telling right?
Menu: B: Light & Fit Greek, L: Light & Fit Greek, S: Cheese stick, We got home at 1:30AM last night so I need to go to the grocery store tonight to figure out dinner.
Have a great day!

Thank you. During the day it was pretty hot, upper 80s and sunny. I went swimming (extra skin and all) in front of people and everything. At night it was down to FREEZING COLD low 60s. I was wearing thermal leggings and wrapped up in a blanket. The weather was pretty perfect in general though.
