295.8... I minor drop but taking the little win and running with it.
A grand time was had last night. Eating wise was solid. Had a London Broil steak (done reasonably well for that type of big catered event), a salad with a creamy Italian dressing, sauteed green beans and asparagus (2 spears) and some roasted chicken my daughter didn't finish. Mashed potatoes came with it as well but gave those to the daughter. All told somewhere in the 850-950 cal range to my best efforts.
Once the 'official' part ended they kicked off a dance and the son spent the night dancing like a loon. :D Got home around midnight and he collapsed and declared 'I hurt in places I didn't know existed!' :D :D They played a string of reggaton tracks (Don Omar, Daddy Yankee, Pitbull, Wisin and the like) and got up and danced those with my daughter (and calling that my carido for the day :D). I have not danced in a number of years and it felt damn good. Felt like my lungs were going to explode after but was able to do it. Dropping the weight thus far is part of that but also the change in what I eat putting a halt to the aggressive RA and its affect on the lungs I credit have having a big impact as well. The damage done and capacity lost will most likely never be restored but I now I feel I can still rock it when its called for. Again, I'm to a point where I'm feeling like me again and like the song says 'I'm not as good as I once was but am good once as I ever was'.
These are the reasons we all fight the battle we fight. We fight it so we can LIVE life, not simply exist and watch it pass by!
Happy Saturday FS fam! Rain or shine, challenges or smooth sailing, its a glorious day. Get up, get moving, stay mindful of what y'all are trying to accomplish. Strive to follow your plans as best as you can but more importantly (yes I'm saying it again) go out and find the beauty in the day, go out and squeeze all the joy from it you can! Ciao!
