@carlsoda I think maintaining is good with all you have going on! That Lucy sounds so cute, I am glad that you were able to get some medicine to help her with the move! Good luck this weekend getting things packed up. Hope you have a super productive weekend!
@pacsnc6 Ugh! That stinks! Especially since you went all the way over there!
@Cafelelia Sounds like you have a nice weekend planned!

My hot choc was nice but the cake not sho nice. The good news here is that I didn't eat most of it. I would have done in the past. The bad news is I had popcorn instead a lot of it. Oh well today is a new day it is going to be a busy weekend.
@sleepymom5 good idea. I will put the good stuff on my desk so I don't have to go there.2 -
Dads 90th birthday today. I’m making a vegan tres leche cake this morning. I have stayed off the scale. My energy is elsewhere. I have been very productive at work. Daily yoga, running and biking all week. Food has been wonderful, nutritious and moderate portions. Staying productive with my google calendar. I’m examining what I want my days and weeks to look like. Where will I put my energy? In over a year it’s the first time I have missed reading posts. Now that I’m at maintenance I look great and feel great. For October I may be taking a break from my daily posts and that makes me sad. I love you all and appreciate the major support. I will think about it this weekend as I regroup.
Have a great weekend everyone!2 -

Friday (late)
PW 292.6
CW 291.2
It’s been a long week, I actually missed weigh in because I slept all day and night after getting off of my week of nights. I still feel like I could sleep all day again but I’m going to try to stay awake. Radiation is also starting to take a toll on my skin, it has actually started peeling off and it hurts so bad, but I’m down to 9 more treatments to go!5 -

Week 4
Pw- 198.8
Cw- 199.8
So this entire month I haven't been watching what I eat or exercising much. So I gained 2 or 3 this month. But I need to be careful this coming week, I don't want to go over 200. So I will try to cut some calories to make sure that doesn't happen!4 -
Friday Check in
Food not logged on target or a little over
Water not enough
Exercise - none
Steps-low-4,500
Not a great day yesterday. I was just dragging all day and didn't do anything until the evening. We went to see Jim's mother and then out to lunch but after that I ended up napping. I did force myself to clean and do wash but that was it. I also ate ok but not planned or logged. I think I was good eating -2 to +2. I was a little over at lunch and a little under at dinner. Also had snacks in the evening but was hungry. Today I am going to help a friend start to clear out her house to move. I am driving about 3 hours to get there. She is the one whose husband over dosed. She doesn't know when he will be home, no one is telling her so I am praying for no drama. His family blames her for everything and are giving her a hard time. I am actually going to back into her driveway so we can get out of there ASAP if something starts up(I will take her with me if she likes it or not). No plan for today either. I really don't even know where to start. I will make the healthiest choices and eat -2 to +2. I also had planned to go back to the shore tomorrow to start bringing things home but they need a place to go so I think I will stay and clean out my closets and drawers so I have a place to put things. I also need to start packing for Denver. I really don't have time to fool around so I have to plan and follow it.
Have a great weekend everyone!
Our October thread is open, head over and introduce yourself!

@amsandos I am actually starting to do that too. If it isn't worth the calories I won't eat it. Looks like you had a good day even going off plan with the popcorn. Hopefully you portioned it out. Sounds like a nice fall snack with the hot chocolate. How is the weather there? You are having fall weather too right?
@Mrsbell8well Your parent's birthdays are so close to each other! Happy 90th to your dad! Looks like you are living that healthy lifestyle you always envisioned! That is awesome! If you decide to leave us, I hope you will keep in touch or at least give us a heads up if you ever start that blog. Enjoy your fun filled weekend!
@timibotkin It is so hard to flip from days to nights so I totally understand how you must have felt. It was hard for me and I wasn't going through treatments on top of it all. Hope things get a little better with day shift. Is there anything you can do for your skin? Do they treat it like a burn? The end is in sight. Hang in there! Hugs to you!
@Zumba_Luvah You know that you didn't exactly have a bad month but you haven't been as committed as you have been in the past. You are very close to going over 200 which you stated you don't want to do. Why don't you make a plan for the month of what you are willing to do to get yourself as far away from that number as you can. Level up from this month, maybe zumba class a few times a week, plan what you are going to eat, things like that. You can do it. You have before!1 -
Check in for Friday
Food - Logged & over by 150
Water - 1.8 l
Exercise - rest day
Another busy day yesterday & a busy weekend. My husband & I joked this morning that most of our conversations are about hockey schedules, drive times to arenas & hockey games. That’s why we have date nights, so we can attempt to have non-kid focused conversation! As he did the hockey driving last night, I batched baked healthy muffins & cookies for a few weeks. This is why I went over calories!
@Zumba_luvah - We are starting a new month on Sunday, so it is a perfect time to reset on your habits and goals!
@Timibotkin - Just a huge hug to you and you are doing great! So sorry about the side effects of radiation, especially the pain from peeling skin. Sleep is great, and try to sleep as much as you are able.
@Mrsbell8well - You have to do what is right for you with posting & participating. Maintenance is a journey too. I was going to suggest to the moderators that they may want to consider a maintenance team thread for those who have “graduated” from weight loss. We have a supportive community & folks in maintenance should have their support too.
@amsandos - You are doing great! Your cake story is a good example of mindful eating. And popcorn is not so bad, especially after a great week!
@lennoncpa - Hope that you had a great time at the party! Let us know how it went!
@sleepymom5 - Love those weekend tips & hope you have a great one!

Checking in. Yesterday brought great news, my glucose is 90, way lower than 153 that was reported at the end of August. I have been happy with the weight loss, but this drop is important to me. I started my pre diabetes class and they are looking to slowly increase our activity to 150 minutes a week. Sounds like something I can do.
@sleepymom5 Great tips for the weekend. You are an awesome friend to help your friend move out of her house. I am very hopeful there is no drama to contend with
@nstephenson01 enjoy your garden vegetables, lucky you!
@GingerPwr I hope your child's concussion is healing. Both of my boys played soccer and I was thankful that there were rules in Place and impact testing before the season
@amytriesww Great job with the plank, you are motivating me to start working on planks on a daily basis.
@Mrsbell8well A vegan tres leches Cake, sounds wonderful, I would be I interested to know how you substitute the milks.
@timibotkin Good luck working through your sleep transitions! I am glad you are counting down your radiation treatments. Hugs

Hello and happy Saturday everyone. Well I attended the party yesterday for my son and his new business and they had food and beverages and he was a great son and made sure there was plenty of sparkling water choices for me (my favorite drink) and I was so busy talking that I never even got a chance to look at the food😀 Now that is a big step for me😀6

Happy weekend! I was irresponsible today, but tomorrow is a new day.3

@Cafelelia That is a good idea to have a date night as it is true, conversations tend to focus around the children and their schedules. Hope you have one planned for this weekend!
@kirsten11872 Now that September is over and you are back into the swing with back to school, etc hopefully you can get back into your routine of going to the gym and your IF. You have been so successful in the past.
@Barbb1557 Nice news with the glucose result! I thought that 150 min sounded like a lot of exercise a week but if you divide it by 7 it is about 22 min per day. You could definitely do that!
@lennoncpa How sweet of your son to be sure there would be something there for you to enjoy. I like how you enjoyed yourself talking that you never even looked for the food. That is awesome!
@hope002 How is it going? Check in and let us know how you are doing . We are here for you!
@ihp2015 . Wtg! The scale is moving in the right direction!
@GingerPwr I am sure after a long hard week of teaching it is easy to be "Irresponsible" . But you are right, new day tomorrow!4 -

Happy Sunday everyone. I normally eat instant oatmeal because it’s easy and the calories are easier to record. When we were in Fontana one of my friends had brought three pickle jars full of pre-made oatmeal so it kind of spoiled it for me to go back to eating instant!! So I bought the Red Mill oatmeal and they have a slow cooker recipe on the bag. I’m not much of a cook but I can put in one cup of oatmeal and 4 cups of water and turn it on low for 7-8 hours or overnight. So I’ve been eating a lot of really good oatmeal this weekend!6

Today was a busy day while up early to do my run then went to help at my local helf marathon. I was down till shook sweeper bike. I ended up helping a lady 20wks pregnant who was running for charity to complete. It took over 3.5 hours. Last week I cycled the same distance in 1hr 15. It was a privilege what an amazing lady. I could not have done that when I was pregnant. As I was in a rush I neglected breakfast then ended up having unplanned sugar on the half marathon. I feel sleep in the afternoon so at least I couldn't eat. 😂2
