Had a pretty cool NSV yesterday. Walked up 8 flights of stairs in a Federal Hospital, so like... more than 8 actual flights of stairs. Did it in 1 shot, no issues and my HR was only 121 when I got to the top... LIKE A BOSS

Congrats you beast! That's fantastic! LOL. Love the vid!

1. Congrats!!! That's major success in my book!

2. Hope you're feeling better and didn't have to get drugs!

3. Is the feast still going?

4. Me2

5. Have an awesome weekend!!!! ((hugs))

I do feel better, not 100% but I think I just need some more rest

I didn't get the antiviral drugs which is why I was sick for so long, it was the flu in my mind, oh well

The feast is STILL going! But I'm not going to cook much more except a salmon dish, I'm pooped lol

Cheers to the weekend!

About to go walk but wanted to stop and update first.

Ate 2 meals yesterday with about an 18/6 fast. Felt fine! Ate real food. Yay! Today the scale is still cooperating. Will reveal all on Monday with my month-end report but it's still looking favorable. Doing about a 15 hour fast today then will have 2-3 meals and try to get cals high since they've been so low this week--but don't know if I'll do very well at it. Less hunger these days which I welcome with open arms!!!

Errands and thrift-storing. Today is senior day (30% off) at Goodwill. Gotta love that day and it's $1 day at another thrift store we visit. Mama needs some new $1 long sleeve t's and sweaters!!

Hope everyone's having a great weekend!!!

Almost that's time again for me! So here's some interesting info!

Woo Hoo ... weight finally dropped below my "low" from a couple of weeks ago!

It may have something to do with my near total fast yesterday and some cardio ! Whatever, I'll take it!

The bad news is, I woke up a hungry hungry hippo this morning. Super unusual for me. We'll see if I can power through with hydrating!

It was actually pizza! Thank goodness for Aldi hungry shopping, or else all I'd have to offer is cauliflower rice or spirailzed carrots!

Thanks!
Feels pretty decent overall, makes that 200 mark that much closer.

My back hurts because of the spinal arthritis. And I did some work on my Jeep this weekend that required a *LOT* of bending, crouching, crawling, scooting, leaning, stretching etc... I painted the lower plastics with truck bedliner to protect them. Looks great. But my back isn't happy at all today.

The next 2 weeks... I've got a camping trip, several hikes, I have to appear in court as a character witness, I've got an upper endo, taking the wife to go see Blues Traveler... just a LOT crammed into a very short stretch of time.

Thanks... some of it is going to be fun. Some of it is going to be crazy stressful.

The 3 day camping trip this weekend is a prep trip for when I get to start getting back out to do some *real* camping. With the new energy levels and diet requirements, being out in the wild with no cell phone or means to contact anyone for miles means I have to be fully prepared. We've camped in Baxter State Park in Maine, you lose cell signal when you leave the highway, then it's about 2 hours to the camp sites. This coming weekend we are going to Pittsfield State Forrest, it's secluded enough for a proper test run, but close enough to services/comforts/stores if need be.

This is what 53lbs of shirts looks like. Those shirts are all laid out flat, standard sized hanger for size comparison.
