The imposter syndrome is strong right now. I think it's mostly work related, but it seems to be draining the energy I could have used to drive to the gym the last two days. Yuck.

Mrs. ReturnOfTheDad found a lump last week. We got it checked out today with a mammogram and ultrasound. Doctor thinks it’s cancer. Have a biopsy scheduled tomorrow to find out more. Should have the results by next week. Just going to try and be there for her as much as I can and stay in the moment. The future is too much to think about right now.

It's definitely an option. I just need to commit to actually doing it then sticking with it. Which is where I seem to be extra struggling. I have a YouTube playlist of exactly that. 

Should last through the weekend, I think.  It's due to get hot again next week though.  How was lunch?

Come to think of it, I did this exact thing to my parents when I was about that age. Huh. It's a phase. It'll pass.

I really admire that you and H are able to be solitary with each other like that. I can see myself needing something like time away but I wouldn't know how to ask for it or even to trust that I could. That's really cool to me and something to strive for.

Ooof, been there! 😜😅

Seriously, more of this weather, please. I'm going out to lunch with my folks at my mom's favorite local Greek place, and she loves the outdoor seating. I hope it lasts.

I have been there. Sometimes I feel like I'm still there despite my weight loss. When I was struggling with my feet I started doing chair workouts. Darebee has a few, maybe that's an option?

Hey guys. Good news about my car.. It was just a heat shield! I got my oil change and I did in fact have a slow leak... Caused by a screw in my tire.    It is very likely that tomorrow I will not be able to walk without severe pain 🥲 I spent the day walking around the big city playing tour guide to my sister and her friend. My feet are shot. 16.8k steps, 11.7kms.   I kept having these fun moments where I was painfully aware of how large I've become.  My body is begging me to try and drop some pounds to relieve the added stress. I've been circling around in my head that I need to do something drastic just to get back down to at least 250lbs but honestly that's even a huge hurdle at that's point and I know with weight-loss it's better to go slow and steady. I'm honestly surprised that none of my family has tried having a heart to heart with me about my weight. It's getting that bad.    I am definitely feeling stuck. I need to commit to food choices but I find it so difficult. I struggle to move more because I can only do so much with my feet.    I don't need to be all bleh but I'm just tired and frustrated at my lack of effort and progress.
