    Team WaistAways is challenging everyone for Week 3 to say YES! Week 3 is often a time for a slump, a slip, or just plain tiredness. We have had Just Say No, but this week, give some yeses a chance. Four per day - go check it out:

    Had many food challenges this weekend with a couple's wedding shower and dinner party. I decided to eat smaller portions and eat healthier options that were provided. However, this time around with fat2fit challenge, I am not restricting any foods unless if it is a trigger food. I also will eat some of the higher calorie dense foods only if they are good quality. So at the couple's shower, a good baker was in attendance and had made carrot cake. I shared a small piece with my husband and it was wonderful.

    I was out all week moving into our new house! My normal, average number of steps is about 5000 (or less). I averaged well over 10,000 each day! I am so sore and so tired. I am back to logging and really trying this week. It was basically vacation for me for this year!

    Glad to hear you got a lot of steps in. Moving is so much work. You are probably retaining a little water due to your sore muscles.

    @leonadixon -- Poor feet! Though it's great to have a problem because you are moving more, yes? Elevate your feet if you can, and hang in there! 😊
    Oh, and I love that you took a look at your weight over the month -- awesome job at taking the long view, and keeping a passing thing like water retention into account, rather than let a number discourage you! 👍🏽👍🏽
    And HEY - congratulations on hitting the Honorable Mentions list for all of the Fit2Fat challenge this week! Woohoo! 😎😊

    @fleetwood1 - You sound like you have worked out a great strategy for yourself, and like you worked the plan at the wedding. Excellent! 😊👍🏽

    @Kres567 - What a great Sunday!

    @TeresaW1020 - You had such a great weekend! Congratulations! And I love LOVE your plan for the week! 📅❤️

    @digger61 - Your consistency and commitment are just SO inspiring! Have a great week! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

    @buniphuphu - Wow! What an amazing WHOOSH weigh-in this week! Keep up all the great work! 😮😎😊

    @apple852hk - Hi there! You're only up a smidge, so you can totally drop that bit this week! You got this! 😊

    Weekly check in
    Previous weight 137 I think
    Today 137.4
    Exercise bike
    Water over, thinking I may drink too much as I drink 3-4 travel mugs just during cardio
    Calories under, I budgeted 1000 for the BBQ and ate decent aside of a chocolate mini bundt cake

    Not much but it's a little annoying to go up when I was 135 until a couple days ago and I've stayed under calories and worked out daily. Another fun scale fluctuation. Bought some ingredients for the posted recipes but I blanked on one ingredient for each. We're headed into a heat wave so I'll probably wait on soups. I did find some dried Lima beans to experiment with in my Instant pot.

    Monday check-in
    I had a busy weekend, and quite frankly I've been exhausted. I stuck to Sunday's plan for spin class and lifting, but it was tough and I could tell my body was fatigued. Today was a planned rest day, at least exercise-wise. No morning alarm and slept until almost 7:30 :) ! Then spent the day working in a very hot classroom, and then an afternoon dentist appointment :(

    Plan for tomorrow:
    - more classroom set up - start working on individual student binders and programs.
    - 1:1 session with one of the trainers
    - Evening group workout

    Could it have been the BBQ food, as in salty? If I even think about eating something salty, I gain like a pound :lol:

    Hey, there! Love all those green check marks for Monday!
    And I love how you are generating yourself as someone who finds ways to fit in movement! You could have sat and rested at the playground (I would have, before I started this journey), but instead you got in some steps and moved forward on health! SO excellent!

    Here's to finding small ways to fit in more movement today! I am inspired and will be looking for those little opportunities!
