What's on your Wednesday Menu?
I know. I wasn't sure whether to warn you or not. I didn't want you to think I was trying to spoil it for you, but I was worried about how you would react.
The next episode is difficult.

The other thing that I should have warned you about is (and I know this sounds gross) that if the intense muscle pain that you had two weeks ago is accompanied by Coca Cola colored urine, you need to get immediate medical attention.

I have only seen that condition in people who had extremely high work capacities even though they were de conditioned.
An example is a retired ballerina that Marilyn knew. It's the same thing that put Julia's roommate in the hospital after his surgery.

. I want to be retired!
Oh, those anxiety dreams. You have a lot on your plate with school and your cookie business. No fair that your mind wouldn't allow you to rest and rejuvenate.
A short day at work today since I have an early afternoon (2:45) haircut and color. I am hoping to go get my nails done after. No exercise. I did confirm with the yoga studio that I am ahead of the game for my 30 workouts in 30 days, so I can take today off. I have gotten into the obsessive mindset that I shouldn't miss a day. I was pondering if I should have done an early morning class today but told myself that a day off isn't going to hurt my progress, in fact may even help rejuvenate and restore my body. It is easy to get dehydrated from hot yoga since you pour sweat (unless you haven't drunk enough water in the last 24 hours).
QOTD: We have gotten snow several times already. I haven't even had a chance to rake leaves and trim back my berry and grape plants. It is too cold too early in the season. Boo, hiss.

Good morning all and Happy Hump Day!
That meme is perfect for me. Although I practice a wind down routine, take sleep medication, and use a CPAP, I still wake up every couple hours.
Today's my 43rd birthday. I'm currently enjoying my Starbucks and will spend time at my club to finish off the morning. I plan to run errands in the afternoon - exciting stuff! I'm jazzed about dinner with my sister. We're going to the Warbler, which has a *****ing supper club special.
I had a monthly follow up with my bariatric nurse practitioner. She asked if I thought I could benefit from seeing a therapist that specializes in food issues. I think it would be helpful, give me more accountability, and devote time weekly to work on my stinking thinking. However, if insurance covers a 2nd therapist/wk is my main concern.
QOTD - It was snowing this morning but nothing stuck. We haven't had any measurable snow stick on the pavement yet in Chicago proper. However, the burbs have seen a little accumulation.
B: Dannon Light and Fit Coconut Yogurt, Tangerine. Starbucks Pumpkin Spice iced coffee
L: PP shake.
D: ?? sharing 5 plates with my sister at the Warbler.
