Had unexpected weight gain last week. Well beyond my usual up and down weight, almost 4 pounds. I am not sure what caused it. Haven’t changed my diet, and I walked last week. We’ll see. There are two immediate suspects. One, my period should have arrived over a week ago. So there’s a chance that’s […]

Yesterday was finally the first day that I started to breathe deeply, the first day that I finally believed that the Biden-Harris term was going to happen. I’ve been so afraid. There were so many chances that even after they’d been elected, that something would have derailed the new administration. I didn’t watch the inauguration
Weight has stayed about the same, which is a yay. Especially given that I didn’t walk enough this week. I will need to stay on top of my weight for the next few months. My regular thyroid medication is on back order. The last time this happened, and I switched to this other stuff, I

I went to see my amazing physical therapist here in Maple Valley. (Seriously. If you’re local and you need PT, go see Dr. Amy!) The good news: I didn’t tear my meniscus. All I did was strain it, kind of badly. The better news: It should only take six-eight weeks of therapy and I should

YAY! I’m still kind of excited about the new year, and some of the changes I’ve made. As I’ve said before, the accountability posts help keep me accountable, so I’m going to keep doing them, with a few changes. Weight went back down to the normal range. This is the first year in recent memory

I don’t remember who I was talking with, but someone was interested in my scone recipe. I make these frequently. They’re a nice treat, and not too many carbs. I can’t eat eggs, so that’s why they’re vegan. And these turn out really well. Enjoy! Paleo Keto Scones Dry ingredients 2 cups + 2 Tbs

So I moved beyond the two pounds I’d been floating between for some time now, and gained a little weight this last week. Not surprising, given how much I ate as well as how little I walked. I’m not too worried about it, as long as I go back down in a couple of weeks.
