7/3: slow and steady progress; I've definitely been more focused since Sunday, so this is a "streak" for me. The key will be keeping on track through the 4th weekend- tonight a client invited us to a party to watch fireworks over the river; it'll be pretty spectacular.

Thank you everyone for the prayers and good thoughts for my DB. I appreciate the support…

FIRST HALF OF THE MONTH:

07/01 –188.8 ✅ (Trend Weight – 190.4) Well I was certainly hoping for a bigger drop than 0.2 but I guess slow progress is still progress. It was a very good dietary day filled with good choices and I worked out on the bike for 30 minutes (2 sessions of 15 minutes). Intentional exercise is something I really need to keep working in. Today is my son that lives at home and my first DGS’s birthdays. We will be going out to dinner out of town tonight. Dinner won’t be until about 7:30. I’ve been sticking to my guns and carefully choosing what I’m eating this afternoon. My son is turning 29 and my grandson 19.

🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️07/02- 190.0 ❌ (Trend Weight – 190.4) I actually didn’t do too bad during the out-to-dinner and out-of-town birthday celebration mainly held for my son who turned 29 yesterday. I didn’t do too badly at the restaurant but for the rest of the night at home….humph. To say I was like a pig in a pig’s trough wouldn’t be 100% accurate. More like a wild boar in a pig’s trough who hasn’t seen food in weeks! Anyway, I really blew it with my self-sabotage. I know that’s what it was because I continued eating even when I was so full it was trying to come back up! Disgusting, I know. That’s a true binge! I’m grateful the scale wasn’t higher. I’m already working on a much better and healthier day today which I hope will show up for me tomorrow. I'm always so disappointed in myself and my relationship with food during these times. It's a continual battle and sometimes I give in but I never give up!
