I wish they would bring back the excursion, a 3/4 ton SUV. That would allow me to have one family vehicle and one small car.

We go on 8-10 camping trips a year in our 35 foot camper. Thus I have one.

I'd rather have a Honda. If I could find a cheap enough one, I'd have two vehicles. But the cost doesn't make sense.

A Laramie trim 2024 Cummins diesel comes in under $80k before tax. Probably slightly over with TTT. I'm not saying that's a deal by any means but that truck has significantly more options than the WT Chevy in the picture.

No believe me I know. I'm just saying this is day 1 on it and it's a very weird feeling. I'm not trying to make a habit of this. But I forced myself to eat dinner. :lol:

I should also do a better job at tracking calories. I'm probably understating them.

Also, I just ate dinner so at least doubled caloric intake for the day. It's just a pretty weird feeling. I'm sure my body will adjust.

Day one and I'm already forcing myself to eat a little bit. I've probably consumed 600 calories today and have no appetite at all. A soft beef taco for lunch, a bowl of Greek yogurt with some PB powder, and a salad. I'm kinda mad. I've gotten really good at making good food but keeping it low calori...

Sounds like it just makes dieting a little easier. I haven't noticed anything yet. I'm still trying to stick to a 2500ish calorie diet.

Lil mac has a solid barter network on his bus though. Like he will NOT allow me to take him to school. He has to ride the bus and barter with the kids.

Went to the doc today. She said she's okay with my BP being a tad bit high since I'm losing weight and instead of changing up that med regimen she's putting me on ozempic to continue losing weight. Reevaluate in June. Feels like it's cheating but I'm hopeful it helps :lol:

Most definitely. ~41 lbs this year. Kind of also feels like I'm not even trying hard enough, but I know it's an achievement.

I dont think it's horrible, but I'm sure it's not good either. I'm eating high protein low calorie (lot of meat) so that doesn't lend itself to low sodium. I'm also on a diuretic already.

Do you ever experience any swelling? I would get a little swollen from time to time and just chalk it up to "I ate too much salt" but maybe this was the cause I was getting it from meds I was on. Calcium channel blockers for high blood pressure so I had to wear those compression socks. Went back to...
