Day: Thurs
Tracked: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: 30 mins on my spin bike. Deadlifts and squats.
Goal: increase water intake this week. I’ve done exceptionally well considering I can’t stand water.
Day: feeling under the weather (thanks, daycare!). Not feeling positive about weighing in tomorrow due to a few bad choices this week. But maybe it won’t be that bad 😬😝

@mg07030 It took me a long time to be able to do a 1 min plank and it's still hard for me.Working on getting to a 1 min plank. I stink at the plank!
Goals: Going to 2 events tonight. I’ve already eaten dinner - so no alcohol or snacks. I’ll be hydrating with seltzer and lime whilst everyone else imbibes!
Seltzer water is a great way to stay on track, and if you're doing low carb you can mix it with vodka (vodka soda) for a low carb, low cal drink...

@SLIMn2016 Get it girl!! The best relief for DOMS is activity! You're going to crush your weigh in!Comments/Goals: Made it through my weight training class!! Didn't think I'd be able to go bc of a bad case of the DOMS, but the walking and lateral trainer loosened me up enough to do it. Today was my second (and last) fasting day of the week...phew. Made it through--dinner was at 5pm and nothing after. Tomorrow is weigh in---but hoping that I am not retaining water from the two one hour weight training sessions that I added this week. Goal is to lose something this week---puuuuuu-leeeeeez!

That rower from hell beat me to a pulp last week and I could barely walk straight the next day and had to take the day off. Here you are DOMs and all putting in another monster workout. Kudos to you, Nancy!
@jcgator The thing about DOMS is, usually the first time you get it is the worst (not always, but usually), after that you start adapting to it a lot better, so I really believe you will be doing the same soon!1 -

Tracking: Yes
Calories: Way Under
Exercise: No
Spent most of the day at the Medical University while my grandson had minor surgery getting tubes in his ears. So, no exercise for me today. Missed two days of exercises, not confident about my weigh in tomorrow. However, I have been tweaking my diet, hopefully that has helped. I have never had a gain, so if I break even, I'll be okay with it. Not happy, but okay.
@jcgator2016 Awe poor little guy, my whole family has had tubes. I'll bet he was happy to have his Grandpa there with him though
You can't always expect to lose, weight loss isn't linear and always remember it's about the long game, one week in the grand scheme of things is nothing....0 -

@gemwolf110 When I gain muscle, I tend to stay the same, however something to think about is...muscle burns more fat so the more muscle you have the more fat you burn...so there's that Also muscle takes up less space than fat...so you'll look better too 1 -

@Merrettsmom16 I hate water too. I cheat and get sparkling water...still water, but it's tastier than just water...and I don't feel like I'm drowning myself.
OMG, I swear, everytime my sister invites me to my niece's daycare (I can usually go to her daycare events due to my work schedule and Paige loves it when "Aunt Ashwee" comes) I SWEAR I come home with strep...like everytime, need to go in there with a mask...just saying.
AND awesome job with the deadlifts and the squats! I can only squeeze those into one day on my de-load weeks, so awesome job on that!!0 -

Thank you Jim! Ashley is right---the more you move the faster your recovery and the lessened the DOMS happen the more you work those same muscle groups.... but boy am I with you on that DEVIL ROWING 
MACHINEEEEE!!! I haven't been back on there this week-

@kearyandjessy I was having that problem and I tried intermittent fasting (I always do 16:8 but at first I added a whole fasting day, and now I try to do 2 days of eating only one meal usually under 700 calories) , that really seemed to spark the weight loss again, you can also look at what you're eating and how much, sometimes you are inadvertently eating too much. Hang in there!3 -
