    Sorry everyone. Missed the weigh in yesterday. This weekend was constant food. And then when I weighed myself this morning I was bummed and made a bad choice for breakfast even though I am supposed to be skipping breakfast. Time to get back on track because I feel like crap. :(

    Why are you supposed to be skipping breakfast?
    Don't starve yourself, this can be fixed with some good choices this week! <3

    It was confirmed yesterday that I am type 2 diabetic. My A1C was 7.7. Going to start Metformin but my Dr was excited that I am down almost 20lbs and that I have been running every day and watching all that I eat. He’s thinking if I continue with the weight loss and lifestyle change that I will not need medications for ever. 🤞🏼🥳 Let’s do this!!

    Big loss for you this week! Good to know that you are already on the right path to controlling your type 2 diabetes. Hopefully you will get off the meds soon!

    Not a big drop but I’ll take it. Day 2 of my green smoothie cleanse. It’s a bit rough but I’m sticking to it as best I can. My mini goal is to be out of the 260’s before the end of the month. Have a great day team!

    2.2 lbs lost is nothing to sneeze at! Remember this is not a race, it is a life style change. Please tell me more about this green smoothie cleanse you are on.

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? No, only 15, and 6903 steps (goal 10k)
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes, barely... did you know a simple Kung Pao with brown rice bowl from Pei Wei is 1100 calories??? I ate half.
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes
    Did I drink at least 60oz of water today? Yes
    Did I get 7-9 hours of sleep? No, about 6 hours, had a very hard time falling asleep last night, and early day today.

    @looneycatblue, I got trapped at lunch. My friend took me out and I asked her what was the least amount of calories on the menu. She said the pecan salad. When it came I knew it was not the lowest choice. I got home and logged it and It's 1,100!!! Yikes!! I only ate half and brought the other half home for hubs. I should have checked out the menu first and pre-logged. (By the way, thanks for doing the mini-check in!!)

    @shalvy2007, happy birthday!! :cookie: That's a great weigh-in for a birthday week!! :star:

    @tuddy315, good loss! :star:

    @BB_1033, good way to maintain! :smile:

    @MMMonk, there she goes, back on track! Nice job with the sleep! :smile:

    @elisepfliger04, fabulous loss! You can definitely get off the meds. My hubby was dx'd with Type 2 and lost 30 pounds the first month. Dr. took him off the meds and he's kept his A1C where it needs to be with diet and exercise. You've got this!! :star:

    @Kenyaa3, good loss. I think you're going to hit your goal!! :star:

    Started an hour early at work today, only a quick break for lunch (I have some other work to do on my break)... then out to dinner with a friend tonight for Taco Tuesday... so I "have" to get a couple of tacos, these alone will be 440 calories. I will only have about 225 left for chips and a margarita... wish I had gotten in some exercise calories... will have to make this up over the next few days.
