    @HASWLRS

    Congratulations for being the top winner of the team this week (week 3) and the top winner overall for percentage and lbs lost!

    Thank you, @prehistoricmoongoddess, but I am not sure where you read this? I did have a good week, and on paper it looked even better because of my binge inflated weigh-in the week before. I wish I'd seen this post earlier in the day, because it was not a good one. I woke up really hungry and I also think I was having a bit of a mental letdown from the busy weekend, because I started to snack, and I didn't stop!! I felt so disgusted with myself that I went for a long walk in the evening to mitigate the damage. I still ended up 664 over for the day.

    So, Monday September 21st

    logged: yes, surprisingly
    under: no, not surprisingly
    exercise: yes, a 56 minute walk
    water: yes, I forced myself to drink 8 cups before I went to bed
    steps: 11,276

    Monday 21st

    Logged food yes
    Under calories yes
    Exercise yes,

    Steps 10093

    Water intake 900 mls

    I've managed to start increasing my water intake. I don't take it late in the evening but for two nights now I've had to get up 3 times in the night. I'm so tired. The only other liquid I took yesterday only amounted to 150mls.

    I really hope my body gets used to it soon.

    @prehistoricmoongoddess I feel your pain, but believe it or not it does. I've only been drinking this much since around June. It helps that I exercise first thing in the morning so I made sure to drink 2 20 ounce bottles then (about 1200 ml). Then I spread the rest out throughout the day. Baby steps. No need to go from zero to 1000 right away. 🥰

    @DaffyGirl88

    Thank you

    I usually exercise first thing in the morning but I was so tired today so I just had breakfast and prepared my dinner.

    I'm hoping to start soon, (it's 12.30 now) and begin to drink my water

    It's showing on the spreadsheet and the snapshot on September week 3 results.

    Unfortunately the main body on September week 3 is almost identical to week 2. I thought maybe it was in process of being updated but it looks like it is an error.

    @prehistoricmoongoddess, I am sorry that you are feeling so tired!! Hopefully you'll figure out the right balance for you, because sleep is important, too! Maybe start with an even smaller daily water goal?

    Having a couple of goldens 🐶 and a conure 🐦 when everyone is trying to get work done at home is like the equivalent of having a house full of toddlers. I can't even go to the bathroom in peace. But I can't help but love 'em.

    I hope everyone is having a great Monday!

    @brandi_84, You paint an interesting picture, Brandi! Hope you have a great week to finish out the month!!

    I should be showing for 7 days on MUAC, I've just been back and checked I put them all down. On some days I've put two days results down, I'm trying to remember to record the results each day

    Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I had missed Sunday. My apologies.
    You had an outstanding week!
    @prehistoricmoongoddess

    Thank you brandi_84

    Just after I'd started back on MFP I got the results from my latest blood test to say I was in the pre-diabetic range so I am determined to lose weight and exercise as well.

    @prehistoricmoongoddess, what a great reason and a great motivator to add exercise to your day and to be committed to losing this weight once and for all!

    @ HASWLRS - Don't sweat it! You've been doing such an outstanding job otherwise that I wouldn't worry about one day. Also, you even took the extra step to mitigate the damage with a long walk. You can easily get back on track today.

    Tuesday 22nd

    Logged food yes
    Under calories yes
    Exercise yes,

    Steps 10046

    Water intake 660mls

    I've lowered my water intake in the hope of sleeping better tonight.

    It was hard getting my steps in today as I was so tired, but I did it with the help of dancing to a Fred Astaire film which I'm hoping will count as my exercise for the day. I usually do a fitness DVD each day but decided not to attempt one.
