I’m NOT weighing regularly because the scale jumps around a lot. Just weighing and logging occasionally so I can look back on trends later if needed.
I’m not going to the gym because I can’t keep up with hubby. Looks like he’s found a male workout partner so all’s good there. Maybe over break I can see about going with my teenager. We lift around the same on upper body (she does way more on lower body) and enjoys going. My 12 year old NEEDS to go but rules state 16+. We can sneak my oldest in because she’s almost 15 and looks older. Hell she’s got a couple inches on me and more muscular to boot!
My massage therapist says she doesn’t think I’ve lost a lot of muscle but it’s enough to even it out. I really need to figure out what was going on there. Was I lifting incorrectly? Does one side gain more muscle than the other naturally?
Is it even worth going? I’m menopausal with NO HRT so gaining and maintaining muscle will always be a struggle for me. Is it worth putting in the hours and effort with very little to no return? If I don’t go then is it worth it to ‘diet’ from now on and keep to a more strict calorie count? Would it be worth it just not to go when we are so busy from Oct-Feb and just go March-Sept? I also feel off balance without the other implant. The bar hooks are too high for me to even lift the bar off by myself with my shoulder blades tucked in properly. I wish they had benches made for short women and not 6’ men! So many questions to answer ugh.
Anyway I’ve been doing OK on my diet. Not enough protein most days. I’ve been going over almost daily but it seems to still be in my range as I expected a fairly decent gain by now. I guessed 125 before Christmas or New Years. Snickers and Ramen have become an addiction almost. I just can’t sleep when hungry so a bedtime snack is needed. Fruit and veggies just don’t cut it for me and have never made me feel full for long. Meat and starches keep me full but I can’t cook before bed lol. I wake everyone up :/.
Anywho... hope everyone is having a great holiday season and staying safe and healthy!

I was thinking about you last night for some reason. glad you posted. I've been drinking watery hot cocoa before bed lately because it's cold. the stuff that's 70 calories an envelope and I add a drop of peppermint oil to make it more palatable. seems to ward off being hungry for me. I'm always starving when I'm cold, but work doesn't allow for a decent hibernation.

Thankfully I’ve been sleeping in lately so I’ve had a later lighter calorie lunch most days. I don’t eat breakfast either. Coffee helps me not feel hungry but I’d hate to drink it at night! I already have insomnia and it’s heck to try and get to sleep at night. I have 25-35 calorie hot chocolate. Not very good lol. I’ve been eating tic tacs a lot lately. It helps somewhat but if I’m still awake past about midnight then I usually have to eat something. Had a huge dinner earlier so I think I may be good tonight! Has work been busy for you?

My cocoa sucks too. Why I add the peppermint oil, but it's still watery. That said, it's usually hot and I'm usually freezing by bedtime, so it works. I have to watch the caffeine thing too otherwise I'm up all night by nature. Which I will fully embrace once I retire, but for now, hard nope.
