    The scale is going the wrong way, but I think I know why. I didn’t drink in October for sober October, so when I started back in November the sugar is making a difference.

    I definitely have noticed a difference in the fit of my clothes, though, which makes me really happy. Because of that I’ve decided to modify my goals.

    My original goal was with each 4 lb loss I get a small reward. I’ve decided to make it optional between that, and when I’m able to fit in my old jeans that are one size down, COMFORTABLY. Either one is beneficial for me.

    So I had a hard day and got some bad news on Thursday. I didn't lay anything out to cook, and the hubs and I were emotionally and physically wrecked. We stopped at Wendy's. I hate fast food, so it doesn't happen often. But yesterday he didn't want me to cook anything. He wanted pizza. I know it sounds horrible but I really just wanted some carbs. I'm emotionally attached to carbs, and pizza is my comfort food. I ate one slice for lunch and one slice for dinner. Plus last night after church since I was already way over on carbs, I got a smoothie. It used to be our ritual to get ice cream after church. I'm trying to do better today, but we have some hard things to do and I'm kinda over it. . . How do you guys deal with not overdoing the comfort eating on really hard days?

    Surprisingly I'm not overdoing it on calories. I was 192 over yesterday.

    I woke up to a sick dog this morning. I’m getting my exercise today with crate scrubbing, dog washing, floor mopping and dog bed washing. 🙄

    Too late to edit my daily post. I’m over calories today. Very hungry for some reason. Real hunger. No snacking, three meals only.

    Didn’t get to go grocery shopping today because of Dakota being sick. Perhaps unbalanced diet today due to lack of food in the house is causing the hunger.

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes, under
    Exercise: No
    Healthier habits: Meal planning, tracking ahead
    Goals or Day: Weekends can be challenging for me, since they are more relaxed from my normal routine. Late night with 1 year old...tiresome, long day! I was able to make a couple of bulk breakfast items for the week...excited about that! I hope that it makes my mornings a little easier.😊

    Gotta adjust my routine big time, since there is no movement on the scale.

    So yesterday I cleaned my entire house from top to bottom. I’m super sore today, so obviously that was a workout. This week I’m going to try very hard to get my butt up, and exercise (walk the dog/c25k, or my dvds) at least 3 times. My friend and I didn’t get to walk last week, so I I’ve made sure to get up during my planning period, and walk about a mile. I’m trying (most of the time), but a glass of wine in the evening, and this leftover Halloween candy is kicking my butt.
    Like I said yesterday, my revised goal is either, 1: another 4 lbs to get a reward, OR 2: getting into the next size down pants COMFORTABLY to get a reward.
    Have a great week everyone! Happy losing!

    Down .8 this week, shred was over a week ago. I'm glad I can do this on my own. I'm very close to my goal, then onto the goal of maintaining! Thanks for all of your support.

    One thing I did well: Bah
    One thing to improve: I really need to work on sticking to a meal plan, which will be extra difficult this week since I'm traveling.
    Goal: I'm running a 5K in 3 weeks, and I want to be in the 250s when I do it.

    OMG CONGRATS TEAM!!! We did it! Such an amazing way to kick off this challenge! I'm so proud of everyone, this is truly a team effort.

    Also huge shoutout to @LyndaBSS , @Kathie_GoGo , and @skullsandskeletons for posting EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. That is a huge accomplishment and is so encouraging to myself and the rest of the team. Keep up the amazing work!!!

    I loved reading about everyone's journeys and hearing from everyone else who has checked in here this past week. Lets keep it up and I hope that even more of the team reaches out even just to say hello! We can do this! Lets kick off this second week just as strongly as we ended the first one!

    Also to note, I know that I have not done a great job checking on the weekends as team captain, but I am going to strive to correct that next weekend. We have less going on the rest of the month so hopefully I can not only be more engaged with the team but also with my healthy journey as well.

    I have the day off for the holiday tomorrow so I plan to kickstart my journey back into physical fitness and spend some alone time with the BF! But I know I need to sweat out some alcohol and food from all the wedding festivities we attended this past weekend. They were so worth the calories, but I need a push to start off the week to get myself back on track and see a loss this week!
