Good morning. Another busy day ahead. Under accountability for yesterday, too many carbs for dinner and an extra glass of wine. I cook so much differently with the grands here. They are not adventurous, but I so active I need to get good calories in them. Last night it was chicken fettuccine alfredo. But I added a salad and tried to pick out mostly chicken and I skipped dessert. My back is still in terrible shape and my PCP is referring back to a nuclear med doctor to see about an injection. I only got about 6700 steps in yesterday, no intentional exercise. I'm going to try things today to see what I can do. Like I figured out I can do counter push ups and work my shoulders and upper arms. What else can I add? TBD.

Today is crazy time again with the girls. Gymnastics for one for 4 hours, softball tryouts for the other. Return some clothes and they are creating a Jeopardy game for us to play tonight. Currently, rock painting is happening.

QoTD: I absolutely LOVE thunder and lightening. We don't get a lot of it here in San Diego.

Bites today...

B: hb egg and cottage cheese. Better get to that fast because we have to leave soon.

L: turkey deli meat, cheese, maybe some pop chips for crunch

D: Pork riblets, baked beans, salad

Peace everybody!

Good morning ~ That is a cute meme! Yesterday was a good day and I'm rolling into a fun weekend. I'm looking forward to hiking today, I still can't believe I've never heard of this place after living in this area for 9 years. Wait, maybe there is a reason? It's not great? Can't be, not with all the articles and reviews I just read. Anyway - I'm so excited so many trails and degrees of difficulty and so close. After we are going to hit a bucket of balls and have lunch. Rob will probably stay and play a round. I need to grab a few things at the store and pick up vet meds for Bubs. We are grilling chicken and watching a movie tonight. After seeing the trailer for Beetlejuice 2 last night, we may watch the first one again.

QOTD - We rarely get storms like that here. Growing up, we would all storm watch. I loved the cool lightening and the thunder claps. I think they were so welcome because it would break the miserable humidity.

Accountability - great, Dinner sure was hi-cal, but small portion and I balanced the rest of the day. 93 active minutes - treadmill and 650 meter mixed swim that wasn't as fun and relaxing as I'd hoped. I'd rather just swim freestyle in the zone. 9,830 steps. Today I am 167.2, hiking, hitting balls, laundry, errands just moving and staying active all day, avoiding the recliner until movie time.

B= coffee, eggbeater and cheese wrap, protein shake

l - Golf course - the best grilled hot dog and Bloody Mary

d - grilled chicken and chopped salad

s - pineapple creami - just very ripe fresh cut pineapple and it's juice.

Have a great day!

I wondered if it could have been that, too - a cut & paste job - either from a template or another patient's report..

I forgot about Charlie Chips! We had those in Ohio back when we lived there when I was a kid. I don't think we ever had those at our house, but my grandparents always did. They were great!

All great pics!
