Thank you everyone finally feeling normal again! ❤️ that’s how you know you’re getting old 😫 happy mother’s days to all the mamas and fur mamas like me! Or single dads or grandparents or guardians (can you tell I’m a teacher, gotta include everyone lol) 🌸🌼🌺🌷5

Weigh in: 124.2 today. Sorry guys, I thought I had a better week than that! It’s tough as I get closer to my goal. I’ll practice self-control next week. Happy Game of Thrones day to anyone who watches, and Happy Mother’s Day to any mother’s. Pet mothers count in my book 😊5

@HASWLRS I'm not going to weigh in for the rest of this month as I put on so much weight on holiday. I walked so much on holiday that I overestimated how many exercise calories I could eat. I always put weight on when I go on holidays and I usually lose it after a week, but I'm sure that won't happen this time.
I am so annoyed with myself. I really wish that I had been able to weigh myself on holiday - I'm sure that is what has kept me on track up til now3 -
Tracked, under n exercised. Y’all: as a lover of nachos, I was a tad skeptical about recipes that created them on bell peppers in lieu of chips . But wow, tried it today and thumbs up. 👍🏿 😋2

@prehistoricmoongoddess, welcome back! I am glad you enjoyed your holiday, albeit maybe a little too much!! I will transfer your weight over for May, and you can work hard at losing the holiday gain in the meantime!! The weight WILL disappear, but the memories are forever!!2 -

@susanpiper57, you didn't gain, so that's a positive! I have heard how difficult it is to lose weight being so close to goal, so yes, being extra vigilant is key!!2 -

We had a really nice mother's day dinner with wine. I tried to balance it out with a morning run and healthy choices for lunch and breakfast, but I was still over calories. I'm okay with this, I skipped the butter on my lobster and had a big helping of the salad, which helped! I have no regrets for Sunday

@enyagoboom, if you were feeling at all inclined, I would love your taco pepper boat and sweet potato fajita recipes!!
The sweet potato fajita is from hello fresh: https://www.hellofresh.com/recipes/2018w50-r8-sweet-potato-fajitas-5bcf4c6b30006c014c486e82/
where it says units, just go with medium sized veggies. it's calorie heavy (720 i think for three) but when i've done a 40 minute walk/run, it works in my favor and is filling without being stuffing.
https://skinnyms.com/skinny-bell-pepper-nachos-recipe/
seriously yummy. I go full fat cheese, so that ups the calories there, but it's worth it. I also use greek yogurt instead of sour cream where i can. i like that the greek yogurt is more tart than sour cream and less calories (and more protein which i seriously lack) 1 -
Going to be a rough week for tracking and meal planning. My parents are in town for my daughter’s graduation so not being at work will potentially get me off track. Going to do my best though.3
