117 OTD this morning. Two days to PS (and 2 days until I'm off from work for it).  Lots to do for work to prepare.  We have a system due to be implemented on January 28, and it will be touch and go until then, so it isn't a great time to be out. I should be able to check my email by next week so I can respond to any crises. 

I just read what I wrote above.  I need to retire...

I did use my instant pot for the second time yesterday to prepare for the next few weeks and am going to do one more recipe today.  That will give me lots to freeze, so I'll have meals if I don't like what DH/DS are having.

Have a skinny Monday!

Morning everyone

the snow of yesterday is being washed aaway by torrential rain thank goodness.

walked 6999 steps and that was the longest walk in quite some time.    Felt good to get the muscles moving.    

Calories were 879.   

Happy Monday !

Oh my goodness Carbon, how could you end the day at 6999 and not do that last step? I KNOW Liz and Shel are with me on this one! Glad you were able to take a good walk though!

Oh, come on! It's like $19.99. Such a good marketing strategy! LOL!

I like to think that Carbon only found out that she was a missing a step just after midnight....

Carbon probably synced later and found out that there was just one more step needed to round off!

Wow Liz, so close to PS! I hope you don't lose weight with surgery like I do, not sure you have it to spare!

134.4 this morning - I think exactly the same as yesterday.

Still have awful swelling, redness and pain in my right arm. Pain was so bad last night I almost broke out the hydrocodone which for me is saying a lot. Taking extra strength Tylenol today since I have to work. I did start the antibiotics last night so we will see if that makes a difference. I'm thinking I might have cellulitis with all of the swelling and pain!

Happy, skinny Monday!

My lymphedema arm (also right) has been swelling in solidarity.  Just needing the hydrocodone makes me worry a bit.  I know antibiotics wouldn't have had a chance to kick in but keep in close contact with PS just in case additional care is needed. Be a patient, not a health care worker!

125s today.  

Back at it today!  I'm making it to early morning before work yoga.  I rather like being up before most of the world. 

It's a Costco shrimp for lunch week for me -- setting up my week of skinny. 

Liz, it is a lot of work to take time off from work and family!  Putting yourself in surgeon's hands will be relaxing in comparison.
