Yay for Tim ringing the bell!
Lisah I'm so sorry.
The beach has been great. Had a nice visit with my aunt yesterday. She told me Jack is doing well as can be expected. He has been getting shots every 4 months as his only cancer treatment and then cancer is gone or mostly gone from his bones. It is still growing in his prostate and he is tired a lot but it's a better prognosis than expected
I mentioned Tim to her and she said that two of Dad's cousins (brothers) had throat cancer. But different kinds. One of them who had the lost aggressive form finished his chemo months ago and is only now on soft foods. I'm glad Tim didn't have to deal with that.
I finally put on on swimsuit. It's swim shorts and a tankini top. And of course they fit better than 2 years ago but it surprised me. It's a long top and before it barely came down to the top of the shorts because of my stomach and now the hem sits at my hips. The shorts are loose enough on the legs to be a skirt .
Dad went back to town Sun but he is coming back down today and stay a few days before he has to go back to town
I'm sorry, lisah.
Great that Tim got to ring the done with chemo bell!
Thank you to yesterday’s GLP-1 discussion for making me realize I was confusing mgs for units and basically micro-dosing the past month. And wondering why I was feeling no particular effects, side- or otherwise.
I lost almost 85 lbs doing a reduced carb (Optavia, not keto) program over a couple of years, got within a hairs-breadth of my goal and then somehow last year just lost the drive. I’ve put about 25 of it back on and keep starting over and over and it’s just not sticking. So I’m trying this. Ok,
now
I’m trying this.
I’m off to Anaheim next week with a stopover in Temecula to do some wining (not whining) with old friends. I was really hoping to have made some progress by now but apparently progress is for chumps who read the directions.
I should go visit Temecula again, last time I was there was over 30 years ago and they weren't really in the wine business yet
Brenda, the only time I’d managed to deliberately loose weight before GLP1 was on Optavia (when it was still whatever the old name was) but eventually I put it back on when I wasn’t staying on their foods. (And then added more, with the pandemic and a lot of comfort eating!)
I had meant to bring my ballot with me on Saturday and vote before or after the rally but I did not manage to pack it. I did bring it to work yesterday, and then forgot all about it until I was packing up my stuff to go home, but I was able to fill it out right then and put the envelope in the corporate outgoing mail bin so ultimately a win, Although I shouldn't count is as truly complete until I get the confirmation text that my ballot has been counted (I am slightly disturbed they can do that but also love it)
