    Sunny and 48 degrees today.....I went to the park and managed 6 miles. I may have pulled something ...hamstring perhaps while shoveling snow. It is a tight burning and stinging pain so after this months challenge I may have to rest up a bit. I want whatever it is healed before golf season.

    Be careful Pinky. Hamstring pulls are painful and take a while to heal. It may just be a minor pull that gets worse with over use. Burning and stinging muscles that are not lifting weights are trying to tell us something. :neutral:

    Ugh!!! So frustrated!!!! I stepped on the scale...big mistake that was...I have put 3.5 pounds back on. I need to get it together. Not sure if it is water weight, crappy choices over the last couple of days, or a combination of both. *sigh*

    I did walk two more miles, one yesterday and one today. I have walked 9 miles this month so far with 11 more to go.

    The good news is, it is not possible to gain 3.5 pounds of fat in 2 days, so most of it is probably water with a little from crappy choices :wink: The best advice is to get back on track and drink a lot of water-I try to get in 12 glasses a day when I am losing and it helps a lot. I have no idea why water is such a magic bullet, but it definitely gets rid of water weight. Hang in there-one little scale set back will not stop you! :noway: You are on pace to your walking goal and that is a huge success! CELEBRATE!!! :smiley:

    Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:

    The scale is not our friend...I swear it is the devil in disguise. Look at you accumulating miles. You are doing great......keep going. The scale is just a tool that we use...how you feel is a much better indicator that you are moving forward with your weight loss. Keep moving and be diligent and that scale will catch up to your hard work. :)

    Leg is doing better today...Dr. Google says it may be a bicep femuris strain. Rest and ice packs seem to help. After 5 Leslie miles it is slightly sore. More ice and rest.

    Oh dear - made a deal with the skip on our curling team - if we lost our game I would skip the next one. And we lost - so... I am already doing the math... I will only make 2 trips up and down the ice each end instead of 6 trips.. and the upper body workout (sweeping rocks) will be minimal... I think I may have to convince her she needs to skip again :);)

    For me - I notice when I increase my exercise I have a gain, as I get used to the increase the gain becomes a loss. Like PinkPan said - the scale will catch up to your hard work.

    I appreciate everyone's reassurances! Y'all are awesome!!

    I did log this week as a slight gain. When I look back at my food diary, I can pinpoint exactly where I went wrong. I made too many "convenience" choices instead of planning ahead like I had been doing.

    Just gotta get back in the saddle and keep going! I told myself this morning that these things happen. Losing weight is hard!!

    So - I lost the coin toss - I skipped both curling games Saturday. Didn't make my 10,000 steps :( ... but sure tried to. Sunday - 1 more curling game. I best wear more clothes - it was REALLY cold in the curling rink and -32 Celsius outside...... Still cold this morning.
