I’m late to the party today, but hopefully better late than never! The 5 hr time difference gets
challenging, some days π Aurora, I haven’t seen you in awhile, but happy to hear that
you’re doing so well! A lb. a week is certainly moving in the right direction, and I’m sure you
know that by tweaking your macros, you can facilitate more loss, if you choose too! We
all must find a balance that we’re comfortable with, however. The most important thing
is that you’re still here!
Caron, that is a very impressive outcome for 2 weeks in Greece! Probably scampering
up the rock strewn terrain was helpful too:) Can it be possible that you’re only 10 days
from an anniversary??? Be certain to post it on the “Positives” thread, so I can start
practicing my celebratory virtual cartwheels for you! That’s a very special date, and
we’d all like to share it with you, my maintaining friend π π π As always very happy
to have you on the weekly thread!
Well Wendy, our “fasting” star, another one completed! I’ve never gone beyond 22 hrs….
I’m very sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. I’ve had numerous occasions in the
past 18 months to reflect on the tenuous nature of life, also, and I very much share your
committment to stay as healthy as you can be to mitigate against bad outcomes π Sixty
five is far too soon to leave this earth!
Thank you all SO much for the sweet birthday wishes π The only concession that I will
make to the relentless march of time is to allow my hair to be au naturelle, now. Tomorrow
is “the” day, but thanks to all of you, I’m feeling good about it. I rediscovered in the shoe
salon today that a 2 decade old shoe fetish has returned, and I brought home a very self
indulgent collection of suede pumps in various styles and heel heights, because I couldn’t
make up my mind! Apple red and pomegranite, and of course black. Everything to excess,
I always say π I left behind a pair of wedge heeled dove grey ankle boots which caught
my eye, but that was my sole effort at self control. Some will be returned, of course…but
which ones???? I discovered last winter, my first in maintenance, that I was much colder
than I used to be, so “operation sweater search” needs to commence very soon. I’m
thinking an Irish cable knit fisherman’s cardigan in cream?
Enjoy your evening to the fullest! Almost time for a fire on the hearth…
