Poor kitty!
I was on a round of antibiotics for the cat scratch that caught under my toe nail. Its been 6 weeks and it is still a little tender, so definitely keep an eye on your bite!
Good morning JB and Menuers,
I been pretty good with the eats and exercise but I can not lie I wonder if something does happen am I missing out on the opportunity to eat a bunch of crap I would love to.
I am running late because I made an Aldi run before work and you know it just seems the older people(70-90) in our society are the least compliant. No masks no gloves. I even see it in my mother. I gave her a mask to wear however she has not yet. Same with DH's mom. I think they are the ones who are the one really spreading this thing. UGH.
My boss allotted me 2 cases of N95 Masks yesterday for my best customers. I was able to get 160 mask to each home healths in North Carolina and In florida so that was a rewarding day for me.
I will be slammed today being we are OFF tomorrow so happy Friday to me.
QOTD: I got 2 DH Made and the Boss gave us a few disposable I have in the car just in case.
Accountability: Rocked it!!
TSS: 2 years 3 Month 29 days 135 (lowest 130.8)
CB: Dark roast coffee with SF ID Caramel Macchiato w/Miralax and Fiber
MS: Oiko Salted caramel greek yogurt, cranberry almond elevation bar and strawberries
CB2: Dark roast coffee with SF ID Caramel Macchiato
L: Jimmy Dean Eggwich/ Aldi snack select
D: turkey meatballs and stuffed mushrooms.
Water and vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and my blood work has been good. My B12 has been High so I cut my sublingual to every 3rd or 4th day. And I have now added 500mg of Magnesium
Exercise: I will get in a walk weather permitting. (doesn't look promising)
Everybody have a Great day.
Brightest Blessings,
Chrissy

It must feel great to be able to give PPEs out to desperate places!!!
G'morning all!
Haha, JB, so happy you could use the meme. I honestly feel that way about any type of cookie not just Oreos!
So...another confession forthcoming. I finally took all my courage and stepped on the scale! I've been struggling with the scale since the holidays and new year. When I went up about 5 lbs I kept thinking it's only 5 lbs I can drop it fast. But somehow the 5 lbs stayed. Then since the quarantine and the whole C-19 fiasco I've reverted to soothing with sweets. But as I mentioned on Mon I am back on track. Although how can you be on track if you don't know where you start from. So I stepped on the scale. Closed my eyes, took a deep breath and stepped on. Then slowly, very slowly, I peeked. 149.4!!! I cussed in every language I know.
When the doc set 150 as my goal and after reading all the posts here, I figured I gotta give myself a 10 lb cushion. Well, that cushion is gone but I want it back. I wanna be like Karen! I will work on this until I'm back at 140. And I will update my weight regularly in the signature area.
Having said all of this, the universe is plotting against me. A good friend brought me a ton of baked goods. I had mentioned, in passing, that I love all her baking. You can see people are bored at home even with WFH, because she drops a whole bag of baked goods. I told DH & DS they better fini**** fast.
QOTD: we have one of those big masks that you have, from eons ago when DS was working with fiberglass to make his surfboard. We also have a few surgical masks DH's work distributed. I dropped off the N95 ones they gave us at the hospital, would have felt totally guilty wearing them. I am also crocheting masks for friends and neighbors, with an inner pocket and using coffee filters as filter, per CDC guidelines.
My meals yesterday:
- B: Protein coffee
- L: egg chaffle(giving it another go, still don't like the way I'm making it although tried different recipes)
- S:cheese whisps (counted 25)
- D: 3 oz shredded pork + 1 cheese stick
- E: 25 minutes cardio (elliptical) + 50 minutes strength training
Happy uh-day!

You can do it! Oddly, I found doing WW and tracking/weighing gave me some sadly missing control when my DH was in his last month. It continues to help me feel in control in this crazy coronavirus world. When I look at it that way (helping my state of mind), it gives me extra incentive.

Very accurate perspective. I feel better since Mon because I'm in control. I don't feel like I'm drowning. I had to weigh-in for accountability and I will do that regularly going forward.
