It's a new day, a new week.  Let's lift our wings to catch some wind.  :)

Good Morning Everyone !

     Weighed in ITR. Sadie and I had a great three mile walk yesterday, albeit drastically different from Saturday in capris and a t-shirt ! I had my taxes done... between NYS and federal, I owe net $500, which is a quarter of what I've been averaging, so I'm thrilled !!

     This morning I completed the online application for the National Weight Control Registry. I should get my application package in a couple of weeks. I see this as another way to keep myself honest, and to contribute to the weight loss community in a positive way. Anyone who has maintained a minimum of a thirty pound weight loss for a year is eligible to register. They collect data from participants on an ongoing basis, and publish trends and findings to inform researchers and participants.

     It is sunny but cold today. I went from open window, back to electric blanket on high for most of the night. I'm going to keep moving today, for sure !!

ITR? In the raw, in the red, isolated tantrum rants.... You know I suck at all the damn acronyms! I also thought ITR = I'm terribly round... Doesn't that sound like obese thinking! LOL! 

It means In the Range :)

In The Range (129-134). I had a "disclaimer" yesterday, that I didn't want to fixate on numbers, if I was in that range... just if I am above or below. ?

Good morning 

a very quiet day whilst looking at the new snow with disgust.   No exercise except shovelling.

Paula so sorry about the diagnosis.   A friend is just coming out the other side of oesophageal cancer and is doing so very very well.  Hang on in there.

134.2, no exercise yesterday. Cals and carbs okay, choices...meh.

Work today. Scouts tonight. Will continue on with the cooking merit badge. Food safety on the docket for tonight!

Yesterday's Macros:

Woof...that will make for a long day Liz.  Remember to get your water in, which when I get busy it seems to be the element that suffers.  By the end of the day I can tell when I didn't get enough hydration because I just feel kinda off and like my systems aren't firing on all pistons.

No workout today for me but I will be going to a client's to do accounting all day.  I will bring a couple bottles of water - hehe. Also will remember to get up a walk around frequently with sitting being the new smoking now.

Built a ramp to the airstream for the dog.  It is about 22" tall.  Jumped off of it several times to get the ho****er heater going.  Good news is the ho****er heater just needed to be reset.  Bad news is that jumping down 22" is exactly what puts me flat of my back on the heating pad and muscle relaxers.  I have back issues but I need reminding every once in a while that I con't do certain movements or I will feel like I do.  Hopefully this will only last only a little while.  Wishing my hot tub was here.  

Steps will be few today but I did get a short walk in with the dogs this morning.

More Later,  David
