June GW: get back to 70
1. Get my snacking under control. I'm good with my three meals, but it is the inbetween and evening snacks that undo everything
2. My June goal is exactly the same as the April and May goal, I'll keep on reporting here on a daily basis until I get to 70 again - sorry for the spamming ladies.
3. Hopefully, we will get back to diving again somewhere this month. I already said this last month, so fingers crossed. The good news is that today I'm not only at the office, but I used my bike to come here !

I mean I can be "on the wagon" for weeks and weeks and slowly drop maybe a pound or two and in happy scale avg is slower. But then I have just one bad day or two and BOOM the scale pops right back up those pounds and maybe even more?!!! I mean WTF?!!!! And it's not like everyone says that it slides back off again in 2 days of being back on track. Well not for me. It takes weeks and weeks to recover again. And it's not like I ate 7000 extra cals or a lot of salt either.
*****WAH****** can I have a pity party please???
This has been my struggle for over a week! I reached a new LW (135 lbs) and the next day I was back up 3.5 lbs. I know it’s just water retention but I feel so frustrated. I’m hanging in there. There’s still 2 weeks left in this challenge!3 -

1. Lay off the carbs
2. Workout at lunch 3x a week
6/2 - 143.6 - how is it June? My life has been a madhouse, but hubby is recovered and we're off to WY tomorrow for a few days with 4 horses (and kids) for a sale this wknd. Sunday I'm going to take a great big sigh and be ready for some normalcy. The good news is I've maintained, the bad news - I've been chowing down nightly on enchiladas & dos equis.
6/10 - 142.6 - I took a week off, we were traveling quite a bit. I was pleasantly surprised with the scale this morning. I did pack lots of oranges, apples, etc instead of having junk food in the car. I think it helped.
6/11-142.2- Ave 142.6 - Did well with food and exercise yesterday.
6/12 - 143.0/142.6 - epic failure on sweets yesterday..inhaled an entire bag of crispy brownie bites - the whole thing.
Starting fresh today.
6/16 - 145.6/144.4 - I did pretty well over the wknd, kept things in bounds and worked outdoors all day Sat. Actually took Sunday to rest up a bit - church and then a lunch date with my hubby at a fabulous restaurant followed by riding out in the country for an hour. So nice to have a day to 'reset'. Yesterday - ugh - I let him and my stepdaughter talk me into meeting them for a big greasy hamburger & fries for lunch - after I'd stopped for a breakfast burrito and then my MIL cooked dinner for us or I would've at least skipped dinner.... I still feel like my hands are swollen today and it was an immediate 2lbs jump. Skipped breakfast this morning and have a protein bar for lunch.
6/17 - 143.6 - did much better yesterday.2 -

This months goals -
1. stay consistent.

Hey I'm Leah, and I need your help.. please what do you think about https://gastod.com/customketodiet/.... I keep reading reviews about it but I cant make up my mind because of the price... I would really love your opinion
Hi Leah, I’m not going to click on the link, but it says keto and you say it’s expensive, so don’t do it. Just log all your calories and exercise here and see how it goes. The worst that can happen is that you still have your money in your pocket. And at best, you’ll also have lost some weight.

Daily Log:
6/1 134.5
6/4 131.6 I have been barely eating okay, not logging anything, and I have been not working out. I am having a really hard time getting focused again. Going to try to start today!
6/5 131.6 Back on track, except for working out.
*6/8 I slipped back this weekend, but this morning I feel more motivated than I have in a week!
6/9 Ate well, didn’t do Chloe Ting, but played tennis for an hour in 90 degree heat – which should count as a workout with how much I sweat.
6/12 I have epically fallen off the wagon. I am going to get back on starting today!
6/18 I have been doing fairly well, but have not been checking-in here as often as I should. I had gained a few pounds, hoping to have lost them for tomorrows official (tracked) weigh in.
6/19 130.3 I am so excited! I am getting really close to dropping below 130!

I couldn’t find my last post but I was too tired to search for it.
The gym is finally open and we went back for the first time this morning. It felt SO good to be back. Instantly lifted my mood and energy.
My boys have still been running with me which is good and bad. They make the progress slower, but it’s really good for them and bonding too.
Since my daughter hates running, I started a strength program with her. My younger son decided to join as well because he wants to be as strong as Dad. 🥰
I won’t see a lot of progress this week since we are going to the beach for a week, but I’m confident that momentum and progress will be along shortly.4 -

Been going to OTF every day except for Fridays (rest day) and have been super active on weekends. Yesterday was a day at the lake, boating and tubing. Laughed so much my cheeks hurt! Making tons of food, entertaining non-stop I am out of my funk!
Little sun and fun makes everything better😎3 -

This past 5 days I've had my biggest progress and biggest defeat, what a week! This weekend was my bf's bday and we've had people over since Friday (leaving today finally) and Saturday and Sunday were just a continuous display of delicious food and refreshing cocktails. I don't know if I'm making progress anymore with so many fluctuations..at least today I feel rested enough to get a workout in.2 -

End of June GW: 148
I’ve been here before but let myself get lazy and stopped logging/tracking my weight. Now I find myself up 6 lbs. and am motivated to find some accountability to FINALLY get to my target weight and stay there.
My main goal for the rest of the month is to log my food every day and stay within my calorie goals.

I still feel like my hands are swollen today and it was an immediate 2lbs jump. Skipped breakfast this morning and have a protein bar for lunch.
6/17 - 143.6 - did much better yesterday.
6/23 - 145.9 - yesterday I did decent...but Fri/Sat/Sun was road trip to Texas and involved waaaayyyy too much food at my old favorite places. I still feel so puffy. Drinking tons of water and a protein bar for lunch/no breakfast. I think I should be back on track by Thursday.
6/24 - 144.4 - Better yesterday, still working on drinking tons of water & light lunches. I haven't been working out at lunch, but have been spending 2-3 hours working at the barn every evening.2 -
Hi all,
How is everyone? I enjoyed some quiet two weeks and have a bit of catching up to do here 😊
My break started with a nice long weekend. And when I came back to the office my inbox was flooded like I had been gone for two weeks instead of two days. Happy days! Have been working my b*** off since then. And that while TOM was giving a me an unusually unpleasant time, too. Loads of cramps. All in all, I did relax a little on the food front to manage it all in some way. Sports and other activities I still did but reduced intensity (you know, stay moving around but not pass out or curl up on the floor).
Long story short, the balance has been creeping a bit back up. I’m glad that the monthly average is still below last month’s average but I want the weekly average to go back down, too. Because, you know. 😊
Thank goodness, stuff is looking up again and I’m up for connecting again. Being social in times as the last two weeks is a real challenge for me although I know that the more I stay in tune with MFP, and this thread here in particular, the better it is for staying on track.
So here I am. Back in the game and reading up on how everybody’s been doing while I had been gone.

I still wake up feeling full and puffy from the weekend's events + the guests who stayed until Tuesday -I feel like eating salad only! I'm slowly going back down but it's very annoying as it's almost the weekend again and my progress is gone for now. I am working out again which feels great though.
I have a trip this weekend to move out of my old apartment so even though I'll be constantly eating out and the 20+ hours i'll spend in the car overall, hopefully the movement of packing stuff will compensate.1 -
Hey ladies,
I've just discovered this group!
My June goal is to lose a minimum of 3lbs. I've lost 10.5lbs over the past 2 months and this week was my first gain in this time (+2.5lbs). Last week I lost 3lbs but I think I was pretty much starving for 3 days and dehydrated so I knew this week I'd be a bit heavier but I've definitely over-indulged.
03/06: -3lbs
10/06: +2.5lbs
17/06: - 1.5lbs
24/06: -3lbs
I'm:
25
5"5
CW: 139lbs
GW: 133lbs
I run twice a week, do two bootcamp/circuit sessions and two 'other' (either long walks or tennis) a week and I want to make the most of this lockdown/WFH time to make a big change before life opens back up and it's harder to have this much control over my life.
Hopefully this group helps keep me accountable!
I'm sooooo happy to be under the 140s!! I haven't even seen this number for 2.5 years and then it was fleeting, fingers crossed i can stick at it and keep dropping weight. I did have a crazy active week though and i burnt over 5500 calories which is way more than i usually would in a week so i knew i was on for a loss. I've got some birthdays coming up this week which means there's going to be more treat food/drinks about so we'll see what my willpower is feeling like!

I can't believe it's only 5 more days including today left in June! Let's SPRINT to the finish line ladies and meet all our goals.4

1. Lay off the carbs
2. Workout at lunch 3x a week
6/2 - 143.6 - how is it June? My life has been a madhouse, but hubby is recovered and we're off to WY tomorrow for a few days with 4 horses (and kids) for a sale this wknd. Sunday I'm going to take a great big sigh and be ready for some normalcy. The good news is I've maintained, the bad news - I've been chowing down nightly on enchiladas & dos equis.
6/10 - 142.6 - I took a week off, we were traveling quite a bit. I was pleasantly surprised with the scale this morning. I did pack lots of oranges, apples, etc instead of having junk food in the car. I think it helped.
6/11-142.2- Ave 142.6 - Did well with food and exercise yesterday.
6/12 - 143.0/142.6 - epic failure on sweets yesterday..inhaled an entire bag of crispy brownie bites - the whole thing. Starting fresh today.
6/16 - 145.6/144.4 - I did pretty well over the wknd, kept things in bounds and worked outdoors all day Sat.

@jacau - Good to see you back, I've been struggling with consistency lately. Funny how quickly I can slip into old habits. Started logging food again yesterday, I always eat better when I force myself to log.2

Hi you guys! Like @SummerSkier said, we got 5 more days!!!
I'm a bit off from my goals but I'm feeling strong. Been doing OTF everyday after work and getting back in shape. Running, lifting and rowing. Pushing it!
I am taking today off instead of usual Friday, my whip lashed neck (from tubing the other day) needs rest anyways and I need a date with my man tonight. 🍸🍽
Tmrw I plan on spending with my kid pretty much all day
His 14th b-day!
Also looks like I'm going on a road trip next month. Our neighbor and us are splitting a cottage in Michigan somewhere by the lake. Taking us all there (except the step daughter-found out she's not going?) to spend a week. Will be nice going away! Can't wait!🚙🚙🚙
