    I hope you find your mind set again, you've been doing so well to date, I'm sure you don't want to jeopardise the hard work you've already put in. Keep strong my friend, but even more so keep safe and well. Hugs to you xx

    Indeed it's getting quite hard! We're ending our 3rd month of lockdown here and as much as in the beginning moral was still ok, now it's starting to wear me down too...

    @eyesopennow, buy some zinc oxide ointment for that blister. 20% zinc if you can find it. If not, diaper rash ointment, desitin, balmex, contains enough to dry and heal the blister. Apply at night.

    5/24 117.5 I’m eating within my macros and I guess my body has decided to lose a bit more. I was curious to see if this would happen with so many 118.0 and 118.5 reading in the last few weeks.

    @quiltingjaine , I know you’ve posted before, but what are your macros?

    5’4.5”, 32 years old, female
    Highest weight: 275 (12/25/2019)
    2020 Goal Weight: 250
    Ultimate goal weight: 150

    5/21: 269.4 ~ Evening weigh in, in an effort to just start doing the things I want to do, rather than continuously procrastinate on everything!

    5/22: 267.4 ~ It is always fun to see the scale drop 2 pounds overnight, even though I know it’s just because I weighed myself at 11pm, hehe.

    5/23: 268.0 ~ I had a beer last night. It fit my calories, but I am not surprised by some water retention. I almost never drink.

    5/24: 268.4 ~ High calorie day yesterday. The increase on the scale was smaller than expected, so I am happy! Aiming to drink plenty of water and eat in range today.

    5/25: 267.8 ~ Back on track!

    5/26: 267.4 ~ I need more days like yesterday! Everything just went so smoothly!

    @jaccimc63 - I really sympathise if you have gall bladder/stone pain. I suffered for 10 years, for the majority of the time I controlled it with a very very low fat diet, but occasionally when I indulged - gosh the pain, the worst I've ever experianced in my life. Eventually the diet stopped controlling it and flare ups started to happen every 10-25 days for no reason whatsoever, there was no choice but to have the operation. It was keyhole day surgery and I have to say that compared to the flare ups, it was a walk in the park. I've never looked back since!! There are still some foods that I avoid, sausages, burgers, chip shop cooked food, but it's all about association with the pain, I just can't bring myself to eat those foods which even in small quantities would definately have start a flare up pre-operation!!
    I hope that you get sorted soon, that pain is the worst ever!! Hugs to you !!

    @eyesopennow - get yourself some blister plasters and apply them at the first sign of discomfort to your feet/toes, they should stop the blisters developing. I always carry them x.

    I'm in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!

    70 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion... :D...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.

    We used to walk 5 miles a day. A pinched nerve and back surgery side-lined me for about a year. Then I had back surgery. Then I had hip surgery March 10th. Recovery is slow. Sure do want to be back walking!

    The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

    Goal: lose 1 lb and keep it off. Eat more fiber : 1,300 calories, 40 Carbs, 35 Net Carbs and 10,000 steps a day but it’s ok to take a break.

    5/17 155.0 lbs -1.0 lbs 1,727 way over by 427 Calories, 31 Carbs, 13 Net Carbs, No Exercise today. Sat and watched it Rain & Rain, and I ate & ate! We now have ponds in our corn and bean fields. Will have to replant. Eating more fiber is working but I’m sure my weight will go up tomorrow.

    5/18 155.2 +0.2. 1,235 Calories, 29 Carbs, 15 Net Carbs and 11,599 steps. Took 3 different walks today and my husband has been walking with me in the evening.

    5/21 155.4 -0.2 1,289 Calories, 45 Carbs, 38 Net Carbs, and 7,921 steps. Still no sun shine, maybe tomorrow!

    5/22 154.6 lbs. 1,726 Calories, 81 Carbs, 50 Net Carbs, 12,243 steps. Walked and did a lot of yard work. I definitely over ate, everything over my goal. 😕

    5/23 155.2 lbs ⬆️ 0.6 1,037 Calories, 47 Carbs, 32 Net Carbs, and 10,361 steps Beautiful day 🌞🌞 took the pool cover off. To bad the pool is green. Lots of work ahead of me. Hopefully by next weekend I’ll have it clean. Grandkids are already asking🤗

    5/24 154.4 -.8 ⬇️ 1,367 Calories, 40 Carbs, 21 Net Carbs and 5,561 steps. Posting yesterday totals I was very busy working on the pool. It’s GREEN!! 🤮. This is going to take me a lot of work!! No walking

    5/25 154.4 ➡️ 1,173 Calories, 52 Carbs, 27 Net Carbs and 10,710 steps. 🌞It was a beautiful Memorial Day! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

    5/26 154.0 lbs ⬇️ -.4 1,025 Calories, 30 Carbs, 14 Net Carbs and 11,391 steps. Doing better the last few days. I’ve been able to keep my Hunger in check. My snacks have been low card seed bread with almond butter or chia seed pudding. I think that is helping me stay on track. I enjoy reading everyone’s post the ups and downs. They help keep me motivated and also let me know I’m not alone on the Journey. Ended round 114 ⬇️ 2 pounds and I happy with that!!🤗

    Day/Weight/Comment
    05/16 …..204.3….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    05/17 …..204.3 …..

    05/18 …..204.2 …..

    05/19 …..204.6 …..

    05/20 …..204.3 …..

    05/21 …..204.3 …..

    05/22 …..204.8 …..

    05/23 …..204.5 …..

    05/24 …..205.7 ….. I logged until I went off the rails. I was not crazy, but I was excessive. I did not plan my day well. I am going to try to do better today. Disappointed in self.

    05/25 …..205.3 ….. TMI this morning was my saving grace. Yesterday was a good day but last night in bed was another story. I couldn’t overcome the hunger easily no matter what I tried. A hard-working day planned for today. I’ve got to save enough strength to cook up my veggies before they go bad and freeze some nice low carb dinners. However, if one could see what was on my agenda today, they would laugh at me for even thinking I could fit it in. I’ve got to figure this out and today, somewhere in the mix, I’ve got to choose me. I’m happy for the drop on the scale and will try to run with it.

    05/26 …..205.0 …..
