Weigh In Day: Friday
PW (Previous Weight): 189
CW (Current Weight): 190.9
LTD (Loss to Date): 16.1
Gained 1.9 since last official weigh-in but it’s really up 2.5 from this weeks low. I am so frustrated and I am starting to let it get to me. I need to get out of my head and trust the process. Eating has been within limits (except yesterday) but my hip and knees have been hurting so bad that even 800mg of ibuprofen has not been helping. So, my steps and exercise have been low. Water also has not been great.2 -

I know gaining weight is frustrating but you will break your plateau. I am so sorry about your knees and hip. It is hard to focus on anything when you are in pain. Continue to log your food, weigh all your food and exercise the best you can.0 -

Water 128oz
Steps 10666
Exercise 60min walk
My mom took the afternoon off so we ended up going grocery shopping yesterday instead of waiting till today like usual. That put me not getting my walk in until the evening. My husband was upstairs though and hung out with the kids so I got to go by myself. It was kind of chilly but still enjoyable. Gonna need to start wearing gloves for my walks now.1 -

@Megan_smartiepants1970 & @lindamtuck2018 - thanks for the encouraging words. Today I will focus on tracking, water and steps. I think I’m going to pick up some naproxen and she if maybe that will help better than Motrin.1

Tracked Yes
Under calories 🤷♀️
Steps 20,262
Exercise back/biceps strength workout and beach walk
Yesterday was a good day, I was able to run errands by myself and do a nice beach walk. Eating was on point until my chicken wasn’t defrosted for dinner so I ate soup but stopped tracking at that point. Good news is I skipped the pumpkin whoopie pie! I may have been under calories just got lazy with tracking2 -

I'm so tired by Friday, and didn't get in my morning workout today and it was raining too hard to walk outside at lunchtime today like I usually do. Did I mention how sore I am?? 😫
Excuses, excuses. SMH I'm now trying to motivate myself to get on the elliptical and/or bike for at least an hour, so wish me luck.
Have a fun Friday night😄3 -

I hope the naproxen works for you. I take Celebrex which really helps me with my rheumatoid arthritis.Tracked Yes

Well done passing on the pie. Get back to tracking as this will help.ScorpioGirl70 wrote: »10/16/2020

Awesome loss! You are so close to 50 pounds lost. Do you have any special reward for when you hit this milestone?iHUSTLE4MUSCLE wrote: »I'm so tired by Friday, and didn't get in my morning workout today and it was raining too hard to walk outside at lunchtime today like I usually do.

How was your sodium intake in the few days before Friday? When I have a high sodium meal my weight can spike 5 pounds or more. Drinking lots of water helps flush it out.1 -

Friday’s check in
Calories: over
Exercise: 0
Water: ✅
Steps: 1,931
Sleep: no
DBF: 1
I won’t have been over but I got real hungry before bed and I had a yogurt. No binges last night so I start my new streak. I slept like a log last night. One of the benefits of the new medication is it helps with sleep. I had to get up real early as it is grocery shopping day so I didn’t get 8 hours. I am feeling more positive today as I am hopeful that things are going to improve.
I hope you have a great Saturday!
Goals this week
1. No binge eating/late night snacking
2. Sleep at least 8 hours
3. Chair workout 5 times a week
4. Stay within maintenance calories3 -

Yesterday I spent the day with my husband while the kids were in school. We never have alone time, we had a lunch date and had a couple of drinks. This was a bigger lunch but had a healthy dinner. I did not track not sure why, my day just got away from me. I made sure to get up and do my workout as I normally would, I couldn’t walk due to the rain.3 -
