Thought about some things today:

From skiing in December I hurt my knee, and it still hurts. I'm going to call a sports med dr. tomorrow & see if I can get an appt.

Started taking my glucosamine & chondroiten meds again yesterday -- keep forgetting.

After my "vacation" last week -- and my pedicure beforehand & massage there -- I need to do both at least 1x per month.....my feet & bod take a beating & I felt a lot better after the massage.... plus without a pedicure, my toenails just hurt from running...

Oh and I need to get some pics posted.....

WHEN WAS YOUR LAST CARBUP?

 

[jenscats5]

WHEN WAS YOUR LAST CARBUP?

Well I don't have an official "carb-up" day........ Remember last week when I was on vacation?? I was as careful with my diet as I could be, but had drinks (lots!) & dessert when offered. Meals were as clean as they could be, considering the meals were provided & either sit down or buffet.

So I would say, last week..........

 

[The Shadow]

try to make it until Fridy at dinner - and be selective until sat night.

I like the calico one.. The coloring is very pretty

 

[jenscats5]

I like the calico one.. The coloring is very pretty

She's very pretty....she's so old, her color has really faded -- not as bright or colorful as she used to be. Poor thing -- she's the one who walks around the house crying & peeing all over the place....I don't have the heart to put her to sleep....

Well.... That's a choice you have to make. Some things are better done then being selfish... Not sure that's what you really wanted to hear.

 

[jenscats5]

Well.... That's a choice you have to make. Some things are better done then being selfish... Not sure that's what you really wanted to hear.

Oh no, I realize that -- but she gets around fine and moves around fine, eats & drinks fine, etc....she's really not unhealthy....she has kitty Alzheimer's basically....

We just Madonna-proofed the house: Put a piece of drywall up, ala baby gate, so she can't come upstairs and taped a big thick 55-gal drum bag to the floor on top of the carpet & topped it with newspaper where she's been peeing so she now pees on the newpaper like a puppy......

If she was in pain or obviously unhealthy, I'd be ok with it....but till then....

 

[treilin]

.."she has kitty Alzheimer's basically" I know it's not funny... but that statement is funny!

 

[jenscats5]

.."she has kitty Alzheimer's basically" I know it's not funny... but that statement is funny!

The vet's diagnosis = "She's demented." LOL Who knew??

Thank you!! I get bored so easily and am unable to eat the same thing day in & day out. Try to change things up while still staying in the plan....

 

[skittles]

Have you ever tried spaghetti squash? It's low in carbs (for a veggie that's not green) It's tastey too. Drizzle some SF maple syrup over it.
