Brought my scale on this trip - jumped a bit after the flight over to London, but not outside my maintenance window...  hope to hit the gym tonight and dump that, and stay "in the window" during this trip to England and France.

Have a great day!

Morning everyone:

Elina huge thanks for your post on the Main Board. Excellent. Just excellent.

A better weekend for me.  

Holding steady at 9 above goal.  Better than going up but it would be better to go down.

Am determined.

Have a great food day.

146.6  after Diane posted that question about shakes, am having a harder time getting excited about them for my breakfast commute.  JINXED!!!!!!  Thing is, I like to have a cup of coffee in the morning w/hubby before work- so, then the no eating 30 min after drinking, so leaves me with liquid option for breakfast.  I think I'd rather have some cottage cheese, or an egg or... BUT I WANT THE COFFEE TIME, too.  WHAAAAAAAAAAAA decisions.

My doctor completely relaxed the "no drinking 30 min before a meal" after a few months.  I try to stop 5-10 minutes before but it doesn't always happen.  He said the water slides right through and I can feel it do that.  

So I drink right up until breakfast...but then I don't drink again until 45-60 minutes after eating.

Hmmmm.  I've heard that other places; ok w/liquids before eating- not after.  That would ease things up considerably.  Might be worth a try.  Thanks!

Spencerella, how's the back today? 
Have some PTO days to burn at work, so I've booked an overnight down to the Columbia River Gorge to go hiking - can't wait!  I've gotten pretty tired of the handful of local lowland trails that are accessible this early in the year.

113.0.

My back injury seems to be healing quickly!  I've had this kind of thing happen in the past and it's taken weeks, but I can honestly say that I'm already feeling 95% healed. Overall good physical health is likely the reason.   No pain, just treating my back very gently to avoid aggravating it again.  

Have a good one
