    Mini challenge

    Sun: no/no/no
    Mon: tracked and under: yes, active: no
    Tue: yes/yes/yes
    Wed: yes/yes/yes
    Thu: yes/yes/yes

    I know with my weigh in tomorrow I am going to be up in weight for the week after vacay last week (I took a look this morning and the damage was definitely done). I am going to be up for the month as well and I am okay with that. I jumped back in a good pattern this week and set some good goals for September. I feel motivated.

    And just for entertainment: while doing a bunch of yard work today I got some bonus exercise when about 2-3 dozen bees attacked me. I was running all over the yard swatting at them and picking them off me.
    If the neighbors were looking outside they got some show.
    Thankfully I am not allergic.

    Week: Week 5
    Today: Thursday, August 29
    Start weight:  216 lbs
    Previous week's weight: 210.2 lbs
    Current week's weight: 213  lbs


    While this gain really hurts, I know it could have been much worse.  I really think all the pressure just got to me once the issues were "over" and I just sat like a bump on a log... vegged out and didn't want to do anything this past week. Didn't eat right, sleep right or move enough.

    The only positives are that even with the gain I did NOT see any 214 to 217 and I bounced around with those numbers in June and July.  I am down 3 from my June start weight.  I also do a measure every month and I am down in inches since July so taking that as my two positives from this journey to start my September reboot.

    As I said yesterday, I am okay with this. August is over and I am motivated for a great September. If I hit my September goal I will finally say goodbye to the 240s!

    Goodbye August. Hello September with routines.

    @Nicoletime4me, @sandkp, @Tracie-Lord, @jlbtnc, @cossmoss15 and @swauters, I think Sara summed it up best....."Goodbye August. Hello September with routines."

    I think we all have the same idea. August we let loose a little. Time to get back into the rythm. We all got this.
    Enjoy the holiday (for those that have one) and then WE ALL OWN September✌🏼
