Good Morning my fellow travelers.

Wt. 218 down 1 Calories to high to count.  Bad choices.  While I didn't eat nuts and yogurt I would have been better off on calories if I had.  Today is a new day.  I just need to get myself pointed in the right direction. 

I am a tractor mower mechanic today.  Something new and out of my comfort zone but trying to save $700 on rebuilding vs buy new. 

Hoping y'all have a terrific Tuesday!

123's     Going back to omitting tenths, in an effort to reduce lure of losing.  Shooting for 124.  One step at a time. I made sure I ate my planned food yesterday.

Made the huge decision to paint the chair rail in my dining area, open to my kitchen and living room.  It is currently stained a medium/dark honey oak, almost the same color as the new floors going in.  All of that same color will be just too much. Really do hate to paint wood, and considered sanding and restaining a whitewash gray but I'm afraid that look would be too "beachy" and frankly, the thought of all of that sanding and dust and the precision work needed for all of the tiny grooves between narrow slats... life is too short. 

David... It sounds like you are incredibly handy !!  Wish you lived closer !!!  I'd keep you on retainer !!

We all have our individual goals and plans, and we know what we need to focus on !  Let's each earn our gold medal in maintenance today !!!

I was a custom cabinet maker for years.  Sold my tools and bought nursing books.  I do well keeping it to woodwork.  Mechanic work makes me ill but it is a necessity today.

131.2 - up a smidge. No reason for the slight gain except that I probably need to have a good poop! Lol! Calories and choices were good yesterday and I also got in great exercise. Shooting for a repeat today but with a loss on the scale instead of a slight gain!

Paula, I had a good poop yesterday so I was convinced that the scale owed me something today but not so much!  I want to be friends with my scale but it's a love/hate relationship for sure!!  Hoping we both have another awesome and on track day today and get what we deserve!!  :)

BREAKING NEWS! Ate breakfast and had TBP (the big poop) and am now at 130.0 - right at target weight. Don't underestimate the power of a good BM! Lol!

Poop is one of our favourite subjects! Worthy of discussion - and envy - on a 'regular' basis haha
