No weight as we are in Fort Lauderdale. Beautiful view from the room but no balcony which is a shame. It is only 54 this morning (though sunny). Apparently this is a pet friendly hotel so we could have brought Justice but he would spend a lot of time in a crate in the room so he is probably better off where he is.

It was mid-70's yesterday so we sat by the pool in the afternoon. Last night we ate at the fancy restaurant at L'Auberge here. This is the fourth time I have eaten there and I have yet to have a meal I enjoy though they sure cost a lot. But DSS likes it and the atmosphere is really nice. At least I don't overeat when we go there. I'm not sure what the plan is today.

We will take a walk shortly but will have to wear leggings and a jacket. Have a snowball Saturday!

A weird dream night... I dreamt most of the hair fell out on the top of my head, a separate dream that my whole body was gaunt looking, and other assorted unsettling dreams I know I had but can't remember now.

Yesterday I went to an art opening for my friend. They had a band there that was really good, but they had about a dozen groupies who clearly follow them were in their 60s and 70s dancing around them. I do not have a nano-drop of that impulse to "dance like no one is watching" in me, so that just makes me embarrassed on their behalf. Secondary Contact embarrassment... They were having fun though and I should just mind my own business!

I think I will work on some decluttering today. The Christmas decorations are all boxed up and put away except for the darned giant tree. I need to finish that job. That's one of my odd quirks. Doing 90% of a project and not being able to cross the finish line.

Liz, how fun you're coming back to Sedona in October! For anything other than fun? You should think about a balloon ride. This company is apparently the best: https://redrockballoons.com

I hope everyone has a great day!

Those were weird dreams! I'm afraid I am one of the old folks who like to dance (though I am not a groupie).

We have a wedding in Scottsdale on 10/18 so we will probably go to Sedona prior to that since it is one of our favorite places. No balloon ride for me - I am petrified of heights.

140.4, the 130's are getting closer!

Today is DH's and my 5th wedding anniversary! To be honest, with scans, taking down Christmas decorations and readying for our trip, the date escaped me until DH wished me a happy anniversary this morning! We plan on celebrating in Maui anyway!

Speaking of Maui, (cue music) "All my bags are packed, I'm ready to go". Spent yesterday evening trying on warm weather clothes and packing my bag! I downloaded some movies onto my phone for the long flights and dug up all the headphones we have from ones that plug into the plane's jack to ones that plug into the phone to wireless. Should be prepared for whatever we need!

Very cold again today. I think I'll just stay inside. I made the chili yesterday, I lied that I would be good for one bowl. I could only eat about 1/2 of it before the thought of another bite sounded nauseating! Tonight will be chicken enchiladas with a green sauce. Should go down better!

I'm thinking that I won't track calories and macros while on vacation. I certainly won't be getting weights while there unless the condo has a scale! I'll just eat what I want when I'm hungry and try not to worry about it all! I'm a bit envious of those of you who didn't do all the tracking this time around but know that my success probably depended on it!

Liz, a Sedona vacation sounds grand! One of my bucket list places!

Sedona is phenomenal and so different from other places. But Maui is amazing as well. Do you leave tomorrow?

Almost under 140: Good for you!

We fly out Wednesday morning!

Yay!

Interesting!

Very! But who knows if insurance companies will cover it for that.

I think the GLP 1 meds will continue to be approved for various conditions (alcohol and drug addictions, ADHD, inflammatory diseases etc.) These medications are the closest thing to a miracle drug since Statin**** the market!
