119.8 - official weight for the week. I looked back and I have been hovering more or less in the same weight area for 5 months now and at my current dose of 1 mg of tirzepatide twice a week for 2 months. So it seems to be working. I have enough for about another 11 months, then will have to figure out how to get it again.

Today is another day with nothing on the calendar and the temperature may actually get to 70 today. It is clear and calm out in the Marina this morning. Maybe we can even open up the lanai sliders later. We will probably go to Happy Hour tonight to catch up with some people. Likely leftover lasagne following that.

But first, a Justice walk! Have a fiery Friday!

214.7 I feel very plateau-ish these days. However, I feel well. I'm still feeling pleased that the elliptical Wednesday night was relatively easy. Proved to me that I am in better cardio shape than I thought I might be. Had another very good workout yesterday: legs and a push/pull upper body workout.

Shot on board. I am thinking a little more hydration could help with the emotional aspect of my eating.

I wondered if my co owner might be a narcissist or could be labeled with tendencies. The good news is that AKC has closed the case. I have received new registration documents that have restored my ownership. I was told the co owner was educated on online registration procedures. Not sure if she was fined or suspended (as I hoped she might be), because I would think I am not entitled to that information. I will have to see if a suspension/fine is published in the AKC Gazette, where such matters are made public. I'm glad the issue is done and over.

Dog shows this weekend. Chose to leave early tomorrow rather than overnight at a hotel. I sort of wish I had not entered this show, but I will have a 4 or 5 week break from shows after this weekend. Hopefully, Buster will earn group placements this weekend.

I am cold again! That is the one drawback I find with weight loss. Maybe it's age, too! My feet and fingers are constantly cold - unless I am working out and getting my heart rate up. I am going to try wearing socks to bed tonight if my feet are cold. Not sure I can manage it, because I always pull them off within 10 minutes. Something about the socks under the covers is super annoying to me. The socks seem to catch on the covers or feel heavy on my feet.

Well, lunchtime is just about over. Off to 5th grade!

Heated throw before bed is great to warm up extremities!

Greetings my Peeps

I thought today would be dry but it is sprinkling. I had lunch with the "Ladies who Lunch" (which I call the Lunch Ladies) at a new Italian restaurant today. It was fun. One woman came by *****cently was sleeved somewhere in Napa. She is only drinking water for a prescribed amount of days. She did not know about OH so I will get her in. Seems like a fun person. Hoping I can help her a bit. Food was good - I had soup and salad and could not eat it all.

Stopped in the studio but I was uninspired so did not stay long. Did the gym after that and there was no one there peculiar enough to amuse me. DH had Mexican lunch so leftovers tonight.

Peps I am so glad that AKC thing is done. Many years ago the house counsel position was open for the AKC and they were looking for lawyers who also had show experience. I seriously considered it. But would have had to move to NC. Anyway now you can worry about important stuff like socks to bed.

Yay Paula another day in paradise! I recall that there were lots of whales to watch. Enjoy. Hope you both are over the sniffle stuff.

CC sounds like you should turn the snore alert off. Guess it is useful with those bordering on sleep apnea or those who wake up with scratchy throats. We look forward to long term reports of new bed.

Still wishing my brother would leave his house even though it's not in evacuation zone. Air quality sucks.

Liz enjoy your down day. Glad it's warming up.

DD its Friday!

It might behoove people not in the evacuation areas to leave before an order is issued if they have a place to go. I would think avoiding people jamming onto roads to get out would be a good idea. We have friends whose daughter and husband live in the area and they have evacuated to their family's home in advance.

The have a place to go part is the hard aspect. With up to 180,000 mandatorily displaced, where do they all go? Sometimes it's better to wait and just be ready.

Agree - I just meant those with options.

Another beautiful Maui day! Details and a few pics on FB! Whale watching was great, the loud pool parties until 11:30 pm and then the severe thunderstorm at 4:00 am, not so much!

Can't find Fairlife on the island yet (except for the Costco 18 pack, which is too much!) I tried chocolate Muscle milk for breakfast! Gag! Literally had to plug my nose and chug to get it down!

Will be grilling out teriyaki chicken kabobs with pineapple tonight for dinner. I think we will hike the Maui Coastal Trail tomorrow!

It is hard when one travels to find the usual things - have you tried CVS? They seemed to be pretty similar to the mainland in terms of products (though I don't know if any of them have Fairlife).

Gald you are enjoying it!

Paula, your Maui pix are beautiful! I love that you can sorta live a "pretend I live here" kind of life there.

And I still haven't been to Hawaii yet. #SMDH
