    I'm getting closer to my 220 or less goal by the end of May! I'm going to push myself this week. Hopefully I make it and if not I'm still happy for being closer to under 200 pounds.

    Tracked: yes
    Calories: under
    Exercise: 5 mile run
    Day: Sorry I've been so quiet the past few days. Hubby took me to a casino on Friday night for an overnight getaway for my 40th birthday. Yesterday a family cookout for my father in law and my birthday. Needlesss today say, it was a 3 day free for all of food and drinks. I decided to let lose and enjoy the special moments. I am back on track today with both diet and exercise. I am scared to death of tomorrow's weigh in. I will stay committed though. I will post my weight tomorrow. Yikes.

    Track: only in hindsite
    Calories: Under, barely
    Exercise: I got in a walk with my mom, since she didn't have to head home after sunday dinner.

    My grandmother actually cooked a very light sunday dinner, due in part to finding out my mother has a fatty liver. So hopefully this is the first of many more reasonable sundays... Aside from that, my weekend has been a bit rough, as now all three of my kids are sick...

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: 30 mins on elliptical machine
    Goal/Day: Stressful is how the last couple of days have been. Just learned flood water levels have increased at my job site and it will continue to increase over the next few days. This morning around 1am a tornado came thru my neighborhood narrowly missing my house. Hopefully soon normalcy will return!!!!

    Track:yes
    Calories: under, Limit: 1500/Actual: 1257
    Water: Over my allotted 100 oz
    Exercise: Walked across a large parking lot and around a Walmart Supercenter, that's it. I didn't do anything else. I chose to let it be a kind of rest day for my body. It'd been awhile again.
    Day: It was alright. I found almost everything I needed at the store. I couldn't find my tuna pouches and didn't want to waste a lot of time searching either. I mostly just chilled out and relaxed. For another challenge I'm in I opted out of the challenging cardio due to the possible stress it would put on my heart (Standing lunges, Burpees and other things) by raising it too quickly and too high. It kinda made feel old though as I remember when Burpees were called Squat-thrusts.

    @skullsandskeletons ~ yes to tracking on Sunday! 👊
    @Toyota100~ Boy you sure are really close to that May goal. 👏 Nice!
    @jupdyke~ Fun weekend and good for you for getting right back on track! 👍 And woooohoooo! Another loss! 👏 7# for the month! Wow!
    @JamieD328~ even if in hindsight, putting it in counts! Yes, hopefully, the three generations can learn to cook something healthier each Sunday and make the 4th generation even more health-minded. Hope the kiddos feel better soon. 😍 Glad you and mom walked… nice!
    @ajaia2001~ Scary!! You had a healthy Sunday, despite it all. 👍
    @klilev~ Yeah for Sunday and rest days, but you still did yard work. :) So glad that you are getting something from the group! 👭 Yes! Here’s to another month of getting healthier and closer to goal weights. Nice weight-loss for one week! And an awesome month, too!! 8.0#
    @MaelynMayhem~ Yes, rest days are important too. Glad you had a nice mellow day. :)

    Hi @johicks,
    I am just catching up on the posts from the last few days. You are so inspiring and I love your positive energy. Looking forward to a great coming week (that I will post as the first week in June).

    Best wishes to all who are having a bit of a tough time at the moment.

    @victorious55 ~ Stick with it. You’re going to have an overall loss for May. :)
    @MaelynMayhem ~ Yeah! A visit with Grandma. You’re still walking and doing your body good. You had such a huge loss last week and still lost this week!! Awesome May for you! Yeah! Hope you find a new or different food to add to your repertoire. Good goal.
    @LuluLovinLife ~ LOL Yes… 5 weeks in May. I didn’t even know that June was up yet. Thanks for posting that. And awesome loss!! You had a good month.
    @klilev~ Nice loss! “Weigh” to end the month. It’s exciting when the weight comes off and even more so when we learn something from tracking and paying attention to what it takes to lose and to fuel our bodies. Yeah you!!

    Thank you very much @johicks. I am definitely going to stick to it. Looking forward to a loss this week. I have analyse my last week and it is good to know what happened. It is also good to know that I am improving. Every step forward is a victory for me.

    @JammyPea~ Thank you - 💖 I do my best to stay positive. It’s easier in the mornings than at night though. LOL
    @jupdyke~ You are welcome! 👍 It’s fun to be part of the team. Cheering each of you on gives me a little boost, too!
    @skullsandskeletons ~ I ended up using the higher number last week, only because it was in the right format. But now we both know to weigh in the morning the next day. :) An incredible loss this week and for the entire month- 8# Awesome!! 👏
    @victorious55~ You’re welcome! Glad you’re tracking to be able to figure out how to adjust and where for that loss next week! :)
    @MaelynMayhem ~ hahahaha You find great memes! I only have hand weights. I’d have to travel 30+ miles in order to iron. Hahaha.

    @JamieD328~ Yes, you can move your weigh-in days to Thursdays starting in June. :) You’re last Tuesday weigh-in will be tomorrow and posted in this thread. Is that what you are thinking, too? I want to be sure we’re on the same page (or should I say thread!) LOL

    @johicks Yep, I knew it had to stay for this month, I just had been thinking I should move it to work better around my schedule, and I didn't want to procrastinate and end up with Tuesdays for another month.
