Good Morning!!
Today I have mud on my face. After my estrogen surge yesterday, and all my whining, moaning, complaining, stressing, and so forth I weighed an even 180 lbs. this morning. That is down 3.4 lbs. from yesterday!! How is that even possible? Which, once again should give me evidence that for me the scale simply fluctuates a lot. I had decided by the end of the day that I needed to focus on the positives rather than the drama I create for myself. Maybe some day I will actually be able to do just that. Maybe someday I will step on the scale in the morning and simply record what it says and not "worry" about what it isn't.
I'm dragging a bit today. I fell down in our woodshed last night. I was in a hurry to pick out a few pieces of old dry wood to get the fire started when I got home. So, briskly I walked in ... looking not where I was going and tripped. No major injuries, hit my knee, pulled my shoulder and felt foolish!! I am a klutz. I blame it on the fact that I never crawled as an infant!! LOL!!! Went straight to walking at 9 months and never learned to negotiate my body well. It's a theory.
Another BUSY day at the early intervention program today. A 9:30 am home visit in Priest River (about 45 minutes from the office), a staff meeting at 11:30, a 2 pm home visit in Elmira (about 35 minutes from the office) and then back to town for another home visit at 3:30 pm. I get tired just writing about it. The good news is tomorrow I only have two home visits, one at 7:30 am and then other at 10 am and then hopefully I'll have some office time.
I couldn't decide this morning whether I wanted to do Pilates or the exercise bike. Ended up doing 30 minutes on the bike. Thought maybe with the fall last night I should give Pilates a day off. I made another loaf of banana bread last night, this time I put white chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in it. Hubby didn't want nuts. I had a sliver of it last night before bed, it turned out really good. Didn't tell hubby I did half splenda half sugar in it. So, while it isn't sugar free at least it is lower than it would have been with the full dose of sugar in it. Of course there is an entire stick of butter in it!!! LOL!!!
Last, my doctor's office called me yesterday and it turns out the radiologist wants additional views of my left breast. Supposedly they saw increased "density" in my left breast. Drat. That means another fun time of smooshing next week and perhaps an ultrasound to boot. I am hoping it is "nothing" but I am slightly concerned. Never used to be but 6 years ago I had a lumpectomy in that same breast (benign) and mom was diagnosed with breast cancer, the only known history we have but now I get nervous about that stuff.
Grateful ... let me think a bit ... get my mojo working here ...
1. I didn't majorly injure myself when I fell last night
2. counting down to Mexico in April
3. seeing my son THREE times in a week
4. wandering into Penney's last night to use the bathroom (killing time until I could pick up my mom from her work) and finding a great deal on a lightweight coat ($200.00 originally marked down to $39.99)
5. a pot of delicious decaf coffee last night brewed by my dear sweet momma
I best get at it ... thank you all for your support yesterday, it helped. Have a good day ... where ever you day may take you. Let's all stay upright today!! No tripping, falling, or crashing into stationary or moving objects!! LOL!!!

Sorry you hurt yourself! I'm a klutz too so I can relate. :) Nice job finding the great deal on the coat!!! Praying that the radiologist finds NOTHING of concern. Have a great day Moose!

Nice theory lol I use to be VERY clumsy before I got married. Idk when I 'grew' out of it, I guess I blamed my childhood. ANYWAYS Glad you are back to your good old self. Funk -be gone! Wait, you had a sliver of a baked good and you lost 3 lbs? We won't understand your scale either woman, lol Moose, I know what you mean about not worrying about it but at the same time isn't it what we are supposed to be doing to never fall into old patterns. Like yesterday you must have done somthing right to correct the scale! You baked w/ less sugar, you had less than you would have had on a low weigh in day. We don't have to stress our flucts up as much but we will have to continue the game to keep in line from now on! You are an amazing woman, I am honored to have you as a buddy. You may not know it, but you are an inspiration! You are teaching others maintenance is possible!

I went through the scare over the summer. Truthfully, I was pretty confident that it was nothing, and had a good time drinking their free coffee / hot choclate, and went shopping while I waited for the results. Got me a $175 pair of jeans for $19.99!! I'm sure you will be just fine, and if it is anything, you have a great support system to get you through it. Have a great day sista!

Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Sorry you had a rough and busy day. I think with the challenges your scale gives you you do very well rolling with it. :) I hope you hear good news from the radiologist and yay on the cheap coat!

I am so sorry I realize I didn't comment on your other issue, OR ISSUES. But on the retest, its understandable to worry. I have heard that there are lumps w/ weighloss or fat build up idk, I have to learn more. My doc didn't know much about them either but I had to have both tests done last summer. I didn't mention it on here. I was too scared. But I learned there are much more scares out there than diagnosis. So we are in YOUR corner once again!

Hi moose, Does that pan have a discernible brand name on it anywhere? Glad that you didn't sustain major injuries. :-) Thanks.

I love all of your sale reports. I wish I was more of a shopper. Actually--not I don't. But I AM happy for my shopping friends. I'm sorry about your density news. As my husband would say, Don't worry about it unless you have to. You already have enough on your plate! As for the butter, butter is underrated, dangers of saturated fat overstated. A stick is better for you than 2 cups of sugar or a bunch of corn syrup--that much is true! I made some gluten-free banana bread last week.....jury's still out. Even my little son isn't quite sure what to make of it. I'm sure yours was much tastier!

So glad you didn't hurt yourself too bad and I will say a prayer for good results. I know it's very scary.

Nice drop on the scale! "That's the way, uh-huh, uh-huh, we like it. uh-huh, uh-huh!" I'll be thinking positive thoughts and sending good health vibes your way, for sure, regarding the mammogram/tests. Um, and a little less wine and you might stop tripping over things. ;) JUST KIDDING ((((((hugs)))))))

oh Glen ... sometimes I DO indulge in my baked goods!!! And typically I don't bake very often. Right now, strange as it sounds, banana bread is one of the few foods that sound and taste good to my hubby ... therefore why I am baking.

Banana bread: Who can resist? What smells better in the oven? So simple and delicious. And it feels so good to bake something for someone from the heart.

Moose, I am trying some baked goods made with whey protein and all good things. I will let you know what works.

bitter-sweet journal today... I'll keep my fingers crossed until the results. are you really going to Mexico, lucky you!! I discovered banana bread 2 years ago, and it's soooo good. I found it even better when frozen and thawed. it adds moisture.

That's a long jounal post moose. You know that I usually cannot make it all the way through those, but I did catch the comment about the doctor's request for some additional tests. It must be very stressful to let these doctors be constantly scanning one's body for signs of a problem. I guess that that is the new norm. Personally, I could not live that way at all, and accept the fact that I will most likely die sooner than later. I couldn't deal with the constant barrage of tests that people subject themselves to these days. Anyway, good luck with that, I hope that you have learned to easily place your mind elsewhere. Somehow, I resent the business aspect of it all...
