Almost 50 pounds since December is indeed pretty damn good, especially since the process has not been painful like traditional "dieting".

Medicare loves Advantage plans because it is guaranteed cost for Medicare. I got one for deceased DH because that's all I could easily find information on from the Medicare site.

That form of texting would drive me crazy!

Weight up a half pound this morning. Oh, well.... I had a hope that it would actually be down some more today, but that was not the case. Still, I'm down 49 pounds from my high last December and 44 from when I started the meds in late February. That's pretty damn good in my book.

Still not back to my cheery self. I'm okay with that, too, I suppose. But, it is tiring. I think a nap may be in order soon.

Tuesdays at school are not going to be my "easy day". I teach six different periods, change schools mid day and end the day with two severe SCD classes that range in age from 4 to 11 years old. My TK-1 severe SDC class has 14 students! I have no idea how that's going to work. Last year there were 7 and that was barely manageable even with 2 aides in the classroom. Fingers crossed.

Dog appointment this afternoon cancelled due to owner testing positive for covid. He actually asked to keep the appointment and wear a mask. I said no.

Not much else to report....

Still not at 170. Grrrrr. Not sure what bumped it up a bit but it can go down anytime now! The good part is I'm not feeling so food adverse and can get close to my 1000 calories in without feeling forced. I think my energy level is improving just a bit as well! I'll take those things for a slower rate of weight loss any day!

Glad DS doesn't have Covid Liz or anything else that you might catch! I'm still planning on masking up for my plane trip on Friday which will be odd, can't remember the last time I had a mask on!

Cool and sunny here today. DH and I plan to take a walk once he awakes after his last night of work for a few days. I'm trying to get some cleaning in this morning. I think I'll make crab legs for dinner. The grocery store DC 1 works at had a great seafood sale a month back so I picked up some King crab ? legs. Crab is my favorite protein! Now to decide what to make as the side dish!

20 texts is crazy! I wonder if it is a woman thing though. My kids answer me in one word responses all the time and half of the time I don't understand what the youngest one even means. He definitely has his own language!

Have a great walk with Kirby!
