She took a cast of my foot and ordered it so it was specific to my foot and my needs. I was so happy with it that I ordered another one. And the good thing is when the plastic part gets thin, due to use, you can just take it to a cobbler and have them replace it. The main part under your heel is made of a harder material and doesn't thin out.

Double capp, yaassssss! All the coffee. I went to a podiatrist way back when and got sme custom orthotics, but they were so thick and didn't fit right in any shoes. I imagine they have improved since then. I may do it now just to have them, even if this doesn't stick around.

I struggle with that choice too. I'm happy where I am - I feel pretty good, but I know I would feel better at a lower weight and with less belly fat.

Weighing everyday is key for me, too. I need to know, good, bad or ugly and to post it here. I spent to much time hiding which just lead to more regain. I went through a protein pancake phase early on. A scoop of protein, an egg, a little water and a little baking powder. I would add some cinnamon, vanilla and sweetener and you basically have cake. My downfall for pancakes is butter - I want a little pancake with my butter so I had to stop.

G'morning all!

Oh Yma, I'm joining you on maxi coffee needs. Be very careful with plantar fasciitis and if possible get one of those special soles for your shoes. My podiatrist made me custom made soles that I use when I jog. It's worth the time going to the podiatrist, and insurance covers it.

Had a nice relaxing weekend. Weather was absolutely gorgeous, and the sunshine put us all in a good mood. Yesterday I was supposed to have brunch with my boys' moms' group but one by one they dropped out due to various reasons. There were only two of us left and we usually reschedule when there is not a quorum, but decided to meet up anyway. Loved our one on one breakfast and long walk on the beach.??

QOTD: at the moment my BMI is 23.8. For the longest time I hovered around 24.5 and kept telling myself I didn't go under the knife and rerouted my stomach to be so close to being overweight again. It's a constant daily battle for me. I have to be vigilant and make sure I don't eat/graze on carb and sweets. My ideal weight is between 140-142 and I'm very close to be back in that range. My main strategy is to work out 6 days a week, not weigh myself every day (it messes with my head) and being super vigilant with protein/carb ratio.

My meals yesterday:

• Double cappuccino + 1/2 pumpkin muffin
• Rotisserie chicken
• Protein iced coffee
• 1 Orange + 1/2 Barebells bar
• E: rest day

Happy start of the week!
