I’m happy, but I gained 5 lbs. in September, so I feel like I have to get that off before I even start. It’s all so hard.4 -

Bundled up my daughter for our walk yesterday as it was pretty chilly out. She loves going with me so she didn't mind wearing all the gear, she did great. In the evening I noticed my steps were a little lower than usual so I ran in place for a bit after my husband and I went downstairs while he found something for us to watch. Wish I would have noticed I was 16 steps from 9k though haha, I'd have got those before going to sleep.
Today I probably won't get a walk in. We are going camping again and doing a trick or treat event. This campground is a lot bigger than the one last weekend so maybe I will get more steps if my kids are up for walking the whole thing. Gonna focus on drinking lots of water and keeping my calories under.1 -
@lcfa5317,
I know people say they understand what someone's going through but I really do. Very recently I was retaining water my feet were so swollen and I put on weight, I don't know five to six pounds somewhere around there. It took several days before I could see the light and excess weight has come off and now I can start really losing again,
Today was the day I lost all the weight I had gained. Now I'm back on track to losing. 😃 Don't give or become to stressed it all happen to you too. I said to others the something you did I have to lose what I gained before I can start losing again.
You got this girl 😊 We got this! 💕. I'm Kitty by the way!

I feel the same way. I really want to celebrate my loss this week, but I'm still up 19.8 lbs. from where I'd been. It is hard😞, but we are going in the right direction now. Don't look back, this train only moves forward🚂🛤 (well my emoji is going the wrong way--BUT we are not!!😂).
Have a great weekend😊4 -

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.
Sounds like a nice day! I pre log my entire week every Sunday. I find this helps track easier.zaralovesKatz wrote: »Username: zaralovesKatz

Great loss! It may be frustrating that you gained in September but you have put that behind you and are focused again. During this journey there are lots of bumps in the road. You just had to get through the bump to start moving again.User: cesse47

Sounds like you have a fun day planned. Super loss! You have reached another milestone, 110 pounds lost. Great job!0 -
Steps 10/16: 6572
Steps are low but my knees really hurt. I have switched to naproxen and I am going to take it twice a day for 2 weeks to see if that helps get me past this. Calories and water were good yesterday and so far today. Scale was down 0.2 of the 2.5 gain. I’ll take it.1 -

I have been apparently taking a little break. I haven’t been horrible just not tracking. I am going to meal plan today and shop tomorrow and try to get back into things. I may take the suggestion and try pre tracking the night before for the week to see if it works better for me.0 -
