You should be so proud of yourself for losing that 10 pounds and continuing to work out Donna!!! Lots of people plateau, and sometimes they hire a trainer for a month or see a nutritionist to discover some little secret of how to get over the hump. I really admire your persistence

I'm really unhappy with the weight I'm at, but I shouldn't ***** because I haven't been doing anything about it. I bet if I got on the exercise bike consistently I could shed a few pounds since I'm bottom heavy. It hurts like hell though because it's not a natural movement for my legs anymore, and I have to lay down and rest for twice as long as the time I spend doing, but I'll probably get used to it if I stick with it. I'm going to start doing it in the morning before I get distracted online.

Grocery shopping went well. Because I went early, the store was quiet despite the fact that it's Memorial Day weekend. I got home before it hit 85 degrees…
I decided to take all the bags in because it was going to be over 90. I took several trips to dump them in front of our recessed patio and brought them in through the slider. I shouldn't be doing things like that, but my husband didn't protest. I'm already a fall risk. I should leave all the heavy items and non-preishables in the trunk for him to bring in. I set a precedent, so we're back to where we were, and I'm very sore today. Next time I will leave the bags for him to handle so he doesn't start to expect me to do that all the time.

He bought a 30-pack yesterday and drank 17 beers. He barely made it through diner and passed out before 7:30pm. He woke up around 7 this morning and must be feeling okay because he's in a good mood.
