    Question for you guys.
    When you're pressed for time, but do go to the gym (just to hop on a piece of equipment to get a a decent sweat in), what's your go-to selection??
    - Stationary bike?
    - Elliptical?
    - Treadmill?
    - Other??

    September Goal: 220

    I just briefly touched 226 this weekend, but lost it. I'm back on the wagon today. Trying to stay motivated and engaged. Hopefully the weather will get better so that I can walk more, and I'm hoping to increase my water intake during the day. Middle of this month will be my 7-year anniversary, and I'd love to feel more confident on that day.

    omg - that is so frustrating! I'm sure you will get back down in no time. My official weigh in day is Monday, but sometimes I step on the scale on Sundays. I get so excited when I see a low number on Sundays, then boom its higher the next day Monday.

    Happy Anniversary btw!

    sw: 305 cw: 256.4; gw: 160; other goals: control salt/sodium intake (heart patient); walk 3-5 miles a day.

    Awesome goals! How do you get so much walking in each day? I struggle to get my 10,000 fitbit steps each day.

    September Goal 240
    End Goal Weight 199

    August was NOT a good month in the irish household. Ended up 3 pounds and lost a lot of motivation. I know where I derailed and I know I won't be able to make the 235 required for IVF at my current clinic. I'm going to push for 240 and a new clinic that doesn't have the weight requirement. I dropped the birth control the doctor put me on but had no record of and I'm still waiting for a response from the office on my question regarding why there's no record of it. That email was sent on 8/15. (Side note, birth control is used prior to IVF to allow the doctor to dictate when a cycle starts instead of waiting for a period to come along). Wishing you all a sassy September!

    You got this! Keep moving forward and best of luck to you!!!

    Elliptical. My knees are not in great shape so the elliptical is my go-to low impact cardio workout. I use an interval timer and get a quick HIIT workout in.
