    Hi there!
    Sorry to have been quite for several days. I have been clawing my way through the week. Phew!
    It has been an up-and-down week -- lots of good exercise, including rebooting my resistance training, but hit and miss on eating well.
    Anyway, here I am on Friday night, making plans to make sure the weekend goes well.
    TODAY (aiming to fill in a few of these before bed)
    🔴 Food on plan/in green
    🟢 Weight training
    🟢 Platform stepping
    🟢 Martial arts practice
    🟢 Meditation

    TOMORROW'S PLAN
    Food on plan/in green (will take some planning early in the a.m., as ferrying the kiddo starts at 6:30 a.m. - phew!)
    Weight training
    Cardio (45+ min)
    Martial arts practice
    Meditation

    @laurelfit
    Glad to see you, and glad you are back in action!

    @19shmoo69
    Oh, my, you always make me laugh. I hope you get back on track tomorrow.

    @davors19
    Woohoo! Hurray for holding steady this week. You just keep chiseling away at this!

    @Katmary71
    Hurray for being past the biopsy!
    The vagus nerve treatment sounds like a win. I hope you can maybe do more with that? And I love that the therapy dog followed you around -- that's not an insult, it's a compliment! You needed help AND she liked you enough to check in with you.

    @TeresaW1020
    I hope shot #2 goes well for you. We just got past that at my house, and it wasn't too bad.

    @vegan4lyfe2012
    I have you in my prayers and thoughts this weekend. I am glad you have tuned the corner.

    @askewcr
    Welcome to the team!!!

    HW -- 355
    Weigh in day Saturday

    SW (3/27/2021): 260.6
    4/3/2021: 259.8 (-0.8)
    4/10/2021: 262.8 (+3.0)
    4/17/2021: 260.2 (-2.6)
    4/24/2021: 259.2 (-1.0)
    5/1/2021: 263.6 (+4.4)

    So I look behind me and I see the wheels that just completely fell off this week. Went back to old habits of stress eating, boredom eating, rationalizing, etc, etc, etc. Taking this weekend to rethink my journey. To re-focus why I'm working on losing weight. Feeling good about the journey this year and knowing that April overall was a speed bump. A big speed bump for sure but not going to derail me.

    Last week is the low point. Daily focus. Food choice focus. Decision by decision is how I can get better and get results.

    Starting today, I am going all with a personal 50 Day Summer Challenge! I'm going to give it my all toward better eating, harder workouts, and a daily renewing of my mind that I'm worth all the hard work it takes to become my best self.

    I would love for you to join me for these next 50 days and encourage you to choose the things that you will commit to doing and come here every day and let us know how your doing. I want to be your biggest cheerleader and I certainly need you to be mine! :)

    50 Day Commitment:
    1) Track every day using Carb Manager
    2) Workout 6 days a week (Including a Butt & Burpee Challenge) B)
    3) No unplanned sugar/refined carb indulgences
    4) Forgiving myself and beginning again if I have a slip
    5) Post my daily results every day on this group and in the Habit Tracker.


    Let's do this!! Tell me what your 50 Day Commitments will be! B)

    You guys. I can’t believe the last week. At one point I was up to like 163. high and I was so devastated and feeling defeated.. eating well, hydrating, taking vitamins... Wednesday was my first day off the steroids and between Wednesday and Friday I peed out almost 7 pounds of water weight. On Friday I had a most excellent BM and I thought to myself, “I’m cured!”

    What a week. So glad to come out in the green. So glad to be feeling better and feeling GOOD! Thanks for all of the well wishes along the way they were so appreciated!

    Bring it on May!!

    Weigh in Apple852hk
    Week 5 - Apr 2021 Sunday /Week 1 - May
    PW 141lbs (64kg)
    CW 137.7lbs (62.5kg)
    LTD about 37lbs (16.8 kg)
    GOAL weight 121lbs (55kg)

    Lost - returning to weight before last week's splurge. It took effort this week and only ate 3 chocolate bars.

    But last night after eating a healthy veggie dinner of brocolli, carrots and bean curd: I ate two slices of Madeira cake that wasn't that tasty. Then staying in the kitchen, I felt the need to eat more. I just ate peanut butter as there was no chocolate. Need to overcome these eating urges.

    GOALS
    1. This week will try and not snack.
    2. Drink tea with cup and saucer

    Have a good week ahead 😁!
