In my personal achievement update, I am one-tenth of a pound away from moving from obese to overweight on the BMI chart.

Right the fuck on! Always nice to have your efforts rewarded.

Weds is the one day of the school week where Matilda gets off early. She's meeting up with her friend Saafiyeh, who she hasn't seen since she got locked out of Middle school in March of 2020, and they will be going back to said Middle School to see the teachers that they didn't get to say goodbye to.

I had a baseline bone density scan on Monday. I got to see a picture of my spine: so cool. Apparently my bone density is currently normal.

And I have now completed 50% of my treatment.

Also, I love that Matilda & her buddy are going to be able to visit & say goodbye to their middle school teachers.

Woo normal bone density!

I'm glad Matilda gets to see her friends and her teachers from what is now way back when.

they will be going back to said Middle School to see the teachers that they didn't get to say goodbye to.

That is so sweet. Gratifying on both sides I'm sure.

Yay for normal bones and progress in treatment!

Apparently my bone density is currently normal.

Awesome!

And I have now completed 50% of my treatment.

Woo, halfway mark!

Aw, yay, Matilda. That'll be sweet.

Yay normal bones!!

Also I got my covid test back and it was negative, so I probably just am having heartburn and anxiety. Yay? But really yay because I have fun plans this weekend for my birthday and I would’ve had to cancel! I did skip events Monday night and Tuesday night just in case, so that’s a bummer, but better than feeling guilty for spreading to everyone.

Laura go you! I am definitely over that line, and used a measuring tape on myself today and was v depressed by the result. But also not managing to eat right or work out (and working out sucks so much more when you’re doing it with 50 extra pounds!)

Yeah, I have to get back to working out. I back burnered it due to knee, weather, and various other Perfectly Valid reasons. I have me some good intentions though!

This isn't that big to me considering how I feel about that measure, but my doctor will be super pleased.

Your doctor should listen to the Maintenance Phase podcast! (As should everyone interested in the weight loss industry.)

Looks like my Dad will be getting discharged from the hospital tomorrow and will be moving into inpatient rehab. I'm worried about how anxious he'll be but glad my Mom will get a break from physically taking care of him full time.

I hope your dad benefits from the rehab, and of course that your mom can get some rest.

Timelies all!

Yay for normal bones!

The coworker with car trouble was back at work at his usual time. Good thing, because it was super busy today.(In other words, a typical Wednesday)
