Yesterday I worked all day so nothing really exciting or eventful happened there. Today, I slept in a little bit which may have messed me up because I woke up feeling so grumpy and upset at the world for no apparent reason. I cancelled plans with my mom because I didn't feel like going and almost cancelled my appointment with my personal trainer but forced myself to go and I am soooooo glad that I did! We had a very intense leg day with weighted glute bridges, leg presses (I did 4 sets of 250#), lots of lunges, goblet squats, step-ups, and leg extensions. I felt both empowered and a lot like jello lol. I did get a lot of cleaning done here at home as well so that was good. My next goal is to find a boxing class as I think it would be fun and beneficial.3 -
I’m a bit over calories today but it was worth it. An old friend came to visit and we had a lovey dinner. All healthy except the margarita which pushed me over my calories. I’m not even going to step on the scale tomorrow.0

STEPS -- 3000 each day this past week
Guess my week away caught up with me this week. Still in the game ... not quitting!!
Love your determination! Are you still setting your goals for the week?Steps for Friday= 7,791
I met all my other goals. The scale today was flat which is fine with me. I find the scale tends to creep up over the weekend and then starts to come down by Tuesday.
Has anyone seen the movie, ‘The Social Dilemma’? It’s everything you already know but it was pretty powerful to watch with my teen and tween. After watching it my husband and I decided to give up social media (Facebook and Instagram). We deleted our accounts yesterday and it free really freeing. I’m not giving up MFP though. This site is a necessity!
I always go up weekends as I tend to have higher sodium foods. I haven’t seen it yet but I will put it on my watch list for next weekend.0 -

Nice loss! You are fast approaching the 50 pounds lost! You are a beast in the gym. It is funny how both not enough or too much sleep can affect us.I’m a bit over calories today but it was worth it. An old friend came to visit and we had a lovey dinner. All healthy except the margarita which pushed me over my calories. I’m not even going to step on the scale tomorrow.
That margarita was well worth it I am sure.Username: piqueaboo

I was really silly and fell last night. My youngest granddaughter likes to sleep on a mattress in our room. I forgot she was there and tripped. It wouldn’t have been so bad but I hit the dresser on the way down. My shoulder is bothering me more than usual and I am a tad sore. 🤷♀️
I set some weekly goals that I will meet. I am in that spiral that happens when I lose my motivation and start gaining weight back. I refuse to let this happen but I know I have to take baby steps to get back into the rhythm.
Goals for week
1. Walk at least 30 minutes 5x/week
2. Stay within calorie goal
3. 8,000 steps 5x/week1 -

Okay I have changed back to the MFP method ...I had the wrong activity level ... I was going by what I do exercise wise not what I do otherwise ...So I was eating way to much ...calories are set at 1650 + the calories I burn from working out ....I am also going back to weighing myself so I have that data ...I am hoping that I have it honed in 2

I was messing with my goals the other day and moved it to lightly active since I am actually getting at least a 30 minute walk and over 7K steps per day. When I did, it bumped my calories to almost 1500. I quickly changed it back. I decided in August that I would eat my calories back if I felt like it. I am still averaging 1200 calories per day but I allow myself the flexibility to go over if I have them available. It seems to be working.1 -
Hi all,
Here for Monday weigh in. I'll be honest I don't actually know what my weight is this morning because the scales have gave me multiple readings ranging from 248.6, 248.8, 249 and 249.8. When I first stepped on it said 248.8, I was like omg then ran to get my phone from upstairs, came back down stepped back on said 249.8, tried a few more times and got 248.6 and then 249.. so I honestly have no clue!
Would it be an idea to use the 249.8 and see where my scales take me next week? It'd feel less of a hit if I were to go from the higher figure to whatever rather than the lower if that makes sense? Either way I'm taking all these measurements with a grain of salt as a few days ago I was still at 251.4.
CW: Who knows!2
