We'll be spending more time in Florida in the foreseeable future :)

As DD says, 5 pounds a month is pretty good as one gets lower in weight! Congratulations!

You have shown such patience, DD! I am very patient in many aspects of life, but with weight loss, my patience is woefully lacking. You are right, 10 pounds is 10 pounds no matter the time it took!

Yeah! 5 pounds a month adds up to something wonderful over time. For me, that's the magic of this medication (and my sleeve). My loss is slow, and without the meds I wouldn't have been able to stay the course.

I am in the 180s this morning. 189.8. That 10 pounds took a week shy of 2 months... But I still have my hair, so trade-offs.

Going to dinner at a neighbor's house tonight, but otherwise no plans.

Take care all

If that house sells at asking price, you may need to increase yours! I suspect you're going to get over asking price offers, even if you don't. Sorry I'm going to miss you in Boston! We arrive Wednesday as you leave.

Plans today are pretty light. Read the paper. Laundry. Start packing. The sun is out, so maybe some outdoor time at the beach, or kayaking.

As my daughter said during Covid, I never asked to live during unprecedented times. Your anger is justified.
