Happy FFF to you! Yes, I broke the “60” barrier – I’ve made it into the 159’s!! New range of weights is 159.6-161.2. We’ve been doing this – FFF – for 23 weeks and I don’t remember for sure where I was when I started out, but I’ve lost about 12 pounds. Averaging about 2 pounds/month, which is not a bad rate.
In exercise/step news, I gave up on finding my old Fitbit and bought a new one, so of course I found the old one the next day. The new one does a more thorough break-down of sleep cycles, which I like. After all, if I know I only got 30 minutes of deep sleep, I’m not surprised that I”m sleepy, right? So I can only report on 5 days, and have really lost ground in this area. 22,000 steps in those 5 days, about 4,500/day. I need to do better this week.
I’m thinking about doing a personalized physical fitness program with a coach. We’ve joined the YMCA, and they offer a 6 week program free. I’ve never done anything like this before, which in itself is probably a good reason to do it. I’m going up to get the application today – we’ll see if i can follow through on it.
Organizing my house – really, everything is in decent shape except my office. Oh, and the garage, but that’s going to take a lot more than me to manage.
In other news, Sir went shopping for shorts at one of those big Hunting, Fishing, Everything Outdoors stores. He texted me this picture:
I said, “Yikes!” because what else can one say when looking at a serious frigging paddle, knowing that it could be used on one’s delicate butt? Ok, it’s a mini-paddle, but still.
He replied, “LOL Yikes is right, I bought one, it’s Perfect !” which may not have been exactly what i wanted to hear. i would have been fine with a less enthusiastic response. 🙂 I am pretty sure that i’m going to find out just how yikes-y it is tonight.
Because – yes – tonight is date night, and we’re going to a munch!! i’m pretty excited, and a bit nervous, but not too much. The restaurant is an inexpensive chain restaurant, which doesn’t thrill me, but that’s ok. You may not know this about me, but i am a bit of a food snob. I prefer non-chain restaurants that offer eclectic combinations of food in original recipes made with fresh, local ingredients. Ok, i can’t always get that, but local is better than chain and… anyhow, yes, i have a whole hierarchy of what’s good. When we go out to eat, i usually pick the restaurant.
Sir, on the other hand, is a McDonald’s and Waffle House kind of man. Seriously. Fortunately, he’ll eat a burger just about anywhere, and most places have some kind of a burger. ‘That won’t be a concern tonight. I’ll be the one scanning the menu for that one thing that isn’t fried or over 1,000 calories and 90% carbs. In fairness, i’ve already found it – they have a grilled fish that looks decent. So that’s not a problem. {Whew, i know you were worried about it for me too…}
Anyhow, all of that is to say that i should have plenty to talk about when i come back. Stay tuned…

Hey!! How are you??? So glad to see you here.
I am pretty giddy. And loving that things are moving forward. And,um, yes, the weight of that layer of emotional distress that goes with not being fulfilled as a sub, has been lifted. Apparently, it was pretty heavy.
