    Water: on target
    Exercise: 47 minute outdoor walk
    Steps: 8,981 (exceeded my target of 7500)

    Goals for Today:

    @digger61 - Enjoy the camping, and especially that campfire coffee!

    @APLLE852HK and @KymminNC - Welcome to Team Slimpossibles! Jump right into the conversation! Ae are glad you are here!

    Hey @girlfacedolly , @melissa2013m and @missyms740 - Congratulations on having such a great week! Is there anything you are you doing that is working especially well?

    @bethanie0825 - I am right there with you as regards minimal snacking (I allow myself one snack a day, 100 calories) and the need to keep to a 12 hour or more fasting window. Both of those make a big difference for me!

    Wednesday Check-in
    Calories: under
    Water: over
    Exercise: 20 minutes on the treadmill and then my calves cramped up so I quit. Hubby blamed my lack of exercise for the last few days and then trying to do incline walking. :/

    I'm back from my trip to Florida and I had a great time seeing my family. I did eat wayyyyy to much junk food and there was no activity other than taking them to a buffet for dinner. My mom and sister have lots of health issues and are very overweight. I told them that this year I am getting to goal and I expect them to get healthier so we can go and do stuff next year! And we will NOT be eating at any buffets. I thought I was going to die after eating that much sugar and crappy carbs. :# Lesson learned and today I'm back on my IF and healthy eating. :)

    Just a reminder that I am skipping my Tuesday weigh-in this week and will be back to weighing in next Tuesday.

    Cramp might be a lack of electrolytes; magnesium, potassium, and salt. If you are a lot of carbs and have cut back again you may be particularly at risk of that

    Happy to hear about your trip!

    I was away for Mother’s Day weekend and ate out every meal. I felt so tired and lethargic on Sunday. I take it as a good sign that our bodies don’t like that kind of food on a regular basis anymore.

    Lol! I don’t know if you know the definition of a lighter day! I’m sure it will be all of the above less the “other bits” 🤣 You rock!

    I did my fasting for 20 1/2 hours today and felt great! I'm much happier being back on my plan. I'm also eating some fantastic meals since I signed up for one of those meal delivery services. We are using Plated and so far we have loved everything! Good portion sizes without being too much, which I have a tendency to cook. :)

    I really need some solid time at home to make some meals and plan. Went away last week and camping with a bunch of friends this weekend. I’m so happy to be getting out and spending time with friends and family so just focusing on the fun (maybe a bit too much lol!)
