@starrjulia8 @PrimalJillian
Syncing is very wonky. Sometimes my accounts don't sync at all. I used to disconnect and then reconnect accounts but even that doesn't always work anymore. It syncs food and water OK, but not steps and exercise calories.

Round 146
Age: 39
Height: 5’ 3”
SW: 163
CW: 124.8
GW: 125
GW for this round: 123-125
Round 140 (15): 128.8 to 127.4 (-1.4 lbs)
Round 141 (16): 127.4 to 128.2 (+0.8 lbs)
Round 142 (17): 128.2 to 125.8 (-2.4 lbs)
Round 143 (18): 125.8 to 124.4 (-1.4 lbs)
Round 144 (19): 124.4 to 124.8 (+0.4 lbs)
Round 145 (20): 124.8 to 124.0 (-0.8 lbs)
Goals for this round:
- Maintain between 123 and 125
- Begin following 10 week strength training program (and keep up with it!)
Still sticking around, as long as you guys will have me. 😂. Continuing to try and get into a maintenance mindset rather than a weight loss mindset. There is Easter, my husband’s birthday and a friend’s birthday for me this round, so I will be happy to end it around the same weight as I’m starting it.
4/2 - 125 - High, but I had popcorn last night as my husband and I finished the last 3 episodes of a season we’ve been watching. I also made lemon ricotta cookies with the kids and again, ate too many of them. I think I need to switch our baking to cakes and pies - when we make something with individual portions I eat way too many. Its much easier to control myself when I have to serve out the pieces.
4/3 - DNW
4/4 - DNW
4/5 - 126.4 - Two days of parties, birthday cakes and Easter dinner will definitely have an impact. Its been crazy busy this past weekend; I didn’t even have time to weigh the past two mornings - on Saturday it was my friend’s 2-year old son’s birthday and I made the cake for them - so plenty of tasting and decorating, plus the dinner at the little party (just us and them). Then yesterday was Easter - lots of candy, Easter dinner of ham, potatoes, asparagus, rolls - and it was my husband’s birthday, so I made him a cake and let the kids decorate it. I’m surprised I’m only up 2-3 lbs! Let’s see how it settles out over the next few days. I also started a new strength training program this morning- Caroline Girvan’s EPIC Heat series. It started with leg day and it was a serious workout! I can’t wait to keep going with it.
4/6 - 126.2 - I’m just going to expect the scale to stay around 125 - 128 for awhile as I adjust to these new workouts. Plus it’s tough to regain a calorie deficit with cake and lots of Easter candy still in the house. I’m at a healthy weight - now it’s about toning and getting stronger. As long as I’m not pushing 130 I won’t worry.
4/7 - 125.4 - Back on track with calories, though I’m not getting quite enough protein in terms of macros. My legs were still sore this morning from Monday’s workout, and today’s workout was also legs - I’m not going to be walking much tomorrow! I appreciate feeling challenged though - it makes me feel like I really can make progress and I feel so proud of myself when I finish.

R146: Lost control and let the weight fly back on. Focus on getting my water and carbs under control this year
Exercise Goal for this round: Get on the darn Bike! 100 miles Walking! Daily Plank. Picking up the hand weights again to get rid of the bat wings.
🎯Mini Goal: 205-206 Saw it and let it slip away!
I need to quit losing the same pounds over and over. If you are tired of starting over, STOP giving up.
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
4/2 207.3 Walked 3.8 + .7 miles, plank, gardening, 1700 cal, 29 net carbs, AF. New month new day … time to refocus and get back into better habits to support my weight loss journey.
4/3 207.4 Walked 2.4 miles, plank, gardening, 2281 cal, 126 net carbs, 3 glasses of wine. Whatburger fish sandwich & fries for lunch and then chicken & shrimp paella for dinner. Too much ice cream & wine but lots of water.

04/08 - 146.1 - NEW SCALE YIPPEE! Woke up feeling a tad sore and a tad heavy in the middle so I'm shocked to see the scale is down. I did re-weigh when my scale came in yesterday to set it up (and even after drinking my water and coffee, it showed 146.4, same as old scale). It will take a few weigh ins to get things moving on the app and a trend to form. It's so much nicer and newer and prettier (am I really this excited for a scale?!) Anyway, fasted just over 18hrs. My fasting app is on the fritz now so I'm not entirely sure how I'm tracking. I do believe my fast ends at 1030-ish for 16hrs. 90oz water down yesterday and hoping for repeat of those today. Did manage to get my workout in yesterday and I went harder than I thought I was capable which was exciting (: Progress, even if it isn't scale-related.

Previous Day's Comments04/02 - I was scared to weigh today. We were up until 1am because we went and got me a motorcycle (we couldn't today or tomorrow and Sunday questionable so we sacrificed last night). Friend of friend is in school with GI Bill. Truck got totaled. Needed to sell what he could to save up for truck+insurance payout. I needed a bike that was good for me (BF's first bike fits me, but it is a bit too aggressive for me and I'm scared to ride it). Boom, a win-win. And his first bike is now with someone he can check in on (: We sold jetskis Sunday and BF had saved up some cash so we had it on hand. Whee!! Fasted 16hrs, 100oz water. Food was NOT very good yesterday and dinner was quite heavy as FamHub made it for us to try (I've had something similar, BF had not). If I'm able to squeeze in my 9Round today, it'll be tight in the afternoon. I have my 1 month PRK follow up today in town and with traffic, it's an hour and a half drive each way. Will try my best, but I'm not going to overwork myself after so little sleep. Hopefully I can behave enough today that yesterday's madness won't show on the scale in the coming days. Damage control mode: ON
04/03 - Happy Countdown Day (4.3.21). Might as well be silly and fun (: It's rainy and gloomy here. I didn't track fasting or water yesterday, I was all over the place and it was impractical. I AM really shocked at a loss. I definitely expected a gain. First weigh in was 149 and it didn't seem too unrealistic. Stepped on 2 more times just in case and got 145.3 both times. THAT seemed more unrealistic haha I did NOT get my workout it, simply not enough time to squeeze it in. But I haven't cancelled my subscription (had to do that before midnight) so I'll have it at least another month.
04/04 - Expected. Things catching up to me. Yesterday was madness, all over the place. Woke up with no plans. It was really rainy and gloomy so we decided to get out of the house and go to San Antonio. Got some hunting clothes for next season really cheap, stopped by for some food (mmm burger, that did me in though) and then SURPRISE. Crawfish boil/2 year old birthday party. Luckily the rain had stopped and it was outside so we were able to stay socially distanced and still enjoy. (@quiltingjaine I've noticed crawfish ALWAYS means a gain the next day. Not sure if its sodium or my body's natural reaction to it... Another note, my scale decided, initially, I was weighing in at 158.7... weighed two more times for 147.5. I'm getting a new scale next paycheck for sure. THAT is the biggest "gain" my scale tried to throw at me)
04/05 - Easter dinner. Fasted 15.5hrs, not sure water (not enough). Slept like absolute crap last night and woke up at 4am. Will do my best to get my workout in, even if I don't go 100%, something is better than nothing. Dinner was early so should be fairly easy to fast 16+hrs today. Already working on my water. I WILL bounce back. I have a goal and a goal date approaching way too fast.
04/06 - Weighed 3 times, all the same. Not sure if it is my scale being wonky or not. I do feel heavy this morning but can't determine exactly why. I DID take measurements, though, since it was such a weight jump. Either all the same or slightly (1/8th inch or so) smaller, which is a good sign. Scale isn't always the best way to track progress! Tracked calories yesterday and did have some weak moments but all in all, I didn't do too bad. I did manage to convince my sleepy self to work out and pushed harder than I thought I could manage. Weight could be DOMS (: Fasted 18.5hrs, 90oz water down the hatch. Still chuggin' along!
04/07 - I'm going to go out on a limb and say yesterday's weight was due to my wonky scale. I just checked and it still shows my new scale arriving today. Fasted 16.5hrs, drank 90oz water. Super tired waking up, but feeling a bit better than Monday so should be able to force myself to start my workout. I know I'll feel better after if I get it done. I keep telling myself that the improvements will start showing soon as long as I keep going!

Increase daily steps to 8000
😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
March focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 146- Maintain weight < 150
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals by keeping busy
Never give up! Never give in!
Recent Back Story:- 2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅
- 2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
- 2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
- That's a WIN in my book!
- 2021
- Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.
- (One good thing about Covid is that I don't have to traverse the minefield of family celebration meals.)

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

Day, Weight, Comment
4/02 – 198 – 10,268 steps yesterday. Focus today on eating mindfully.
4/03 – 197.4 – 20,114 steps, 30 min aerobics yesterday.
4/04 – 198 – 14,251 steps yesterday. Fasting today.
4/05 – 195.4 – 10,627 steps yesterday. Fasted, so I expect to see a little bump up tomorrow. This is my lowest recorded weight for this year, which I also have logged on March 25. Really want to capture this momentum and stick around or under 195. Hoping I can get back on track to reach goal of starting May at 180-185, but that is feeling pretty out of reach at this point. I’m guessing I’ll recalibrate those larger goals at the end of the month, but I’ll keep trying! Focus on just keeping these three pounds off for now. Eat well today, move a lot, clean the house, make a good dinner, enjoy the day. BF woke up in the night Saturday with a swollen, painful ankle and took a muscle relaxer. He slept almost all day yesterday, which is something he NEVER does. He is always active and gets lots of sports injuries he never complains about. Fingers crossed that it was just a reaction to the muscle relaxer and not a symptom of something more serious. He’s taken one before and not slept like this, though.
4/06 – 196.4 – 13,211 steps, 30 min aerobics yesterday. BF seems to be better. Pleased that weight is still relatively close to 195 today. Focus on keeping the momentum going with good food choices today.
4/07 - 197.6 - 14,130 steps yesterday. Fasting for some portion of today, hopefully can do 24 hours.
4/08 – 196 – 10,190 steps yesterday. Fasted nearly 36 hours and was expecting a bigger drop. I may be retaining water. Disappointing. Well, there are two more days! I’ll be camping Sunday morning so won’t be able to weigh myself that day. Will probably consider 4/10 or 4/12 weight as my end weight for this round. Definitely not going to weigh myself Sunday night. Not feeling too great today – just want to crawl back into bed.

4/2-DNW-I bought a horse that lives 20 min. from me. It takes me 2-3 hr. round trip to go see him and work with him. Now that it’s getting hot, I am going to have a more rigid schedule of horse in A.M. and bike/walking/sewing in afternoon.
Our adult boys will be here for a few days. I will be back

Have a Happy Easter everyone!💚

There is a certain amount of shame that goes with posting numbers like this, but I am here to be open and honest. This is a combo of low TMI and high TMS (too much salt.) And high TMF (food.) I had a fantastic weekend!
04/06: 213.2
04/07: My scale is on the blink. Changed batteries…nothing. Not sure if the new batteries are all that new, so I will try again, but I should probably be on the hunt for a new scale. In the mean time I will keep checking in here at JGM10D. I will enter yesterday’s weight in my record for calculating 10-day averages. (I deserve that.) It may not be too far off since my DW’s sister and husband are coming to stay for Th-Su. A lot of watching the Masters golf and eating.
Yesterday was a decent day of sticking with the program. I did polish off the last sugar cookie from Easter.
04/08: This is bad, not knowing where my scale reading is today. Yesterday was good, food logging-wise

I’m determined to make this my back-on-track breakthrough round & month. Off to a good start. Thanks to all on this lovely group for being here.
1/3 - 184.2 - 1449
What??? How can that be? Maybe sodium in the chicken casserole DH made for dinner. Happily, we have no Easter candy in the house and I’m resisting the urge to bake hot cross buns. Maybe I’ll color a couple of hard boiled eggs. 🌷🐇 Have a satisfying Saturday, all!
1/4 - 184 - 1264
Happy to say my 7-day calorie average is now below my goal, and I fully intend to keep it there. I’d really like to get out of the 80s this month. And now I’m heading out to the garden to begin cutting back last summer’s leavings to make way for the new. This is my friend Clover talking to me last summer. We wish you a Happy Easter, happy day!

Rats. I’d hoped to be down a bit. But I’ve been hitting my goal, so there’s that!
1/6 - 184 - 1514
Aww, come on. I’m hoping this means I’ll have a big whoosh sometime (soon!), but it’s very discouraging. Otoh, we have a lovely warm day coming up and I’m heading into the garden. And our new gazebo is up! I love it! Stay tuned for flowers.
1/7 - 183.8 - 1306
I suppose that’s a little progress. I’ve no idea why it’s so slow. Weird.
1/8 - 184 - 1410
Really makes no sense to me. Plus I put new batteries in my scale and the stupid thing bumped my weight up 4 pounds! I am not recording that!!! I’ll just report 184 until the scale catches up. I’m not that worried about actual numbers anyway, just trends, and I’m not taking credit for 4 pounds I didn’t suddenly gain! Thankfully, I got a nice dose of endorphins yesterday working in the garden, and am heading out for more of the same before the rain. Wishing you all a lovely day.

04/02 194.4 Had I hard time controlling the need for a snack. I was at grocery store at 930pm and put too many snack in my bag. Never easy to shop and avoid late night snacking, while you a little hungry. I let myself indulge a bit but not too much. Tonight going for hibachi dinner, so today is hardboiled egg and avocado, crumbled 1 slice of bacon for breakfast and tuna salad (with avocado) on lettuce wraps for lunch. A very good start for calories today.
04/03 193.3 Not too bad yesterday but still too much junk in my house. My biggest snack was a Dried cranberry, raisin, cherry with almonds combo.
04/04 194.2 Easter Sunday large brunch way too food, lots of jelly beans and a ham. I expect to see a rise. The sodium alone was probably double my recommended amount. I did not log during the weekend.
04/05 198.2 4lb in 24 hours is impressive to say the least. However it did inspire me to chop up that ham and throw a good portion of it away. I also got some of the jelly beans out of my house. Plus my fitbit and Myfitnesspal are not syncing. Not in either direction. Very frustrating.
04/06 195.5 That is something to celebrate. I threw away the sugar cookies this morning. The kids have plenty of sugar in the house.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/01 …..207.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
04/02 …..207.6 ….. Holding my own but I had hoped for a little progress. A cold but beautiful day here. Taking two of the grands for their haircuts and lunch. Full hands today means less steps likely but I will watch my diet.
04/03 …..208.6 ….. Meals weren’t too bad but I did have grilled cheese for dinner as it was a busy day and it’s fast to make. Sodium perhaps? I am, however, beginning to think I may be lactose intolerant and that cheese greatly affects me. That is a nightmare on the diets I prefer to follow for my weight AND my diabetes. I also seem to bloat and gain unreasonably if I’ve had a glass of milk the day before (unless it’s Fairlife Milk). I’m going to pay close attention….. Are we still doing the steps challenge BTW?
04/04 …..207.6 ….. Back down to that comfortable number my body seems to like to hover on. Progress coming soon I hope. Almost 24,000 steps yesterday and over 10 miles. That was just working in the yard! Happy Easter everyone!
04/05 …..206.6 ….. I keep landing on the point 6 lol. Anyway, I’m happy to be down another pound. We did not have an Easter dinner yesterday due to all the construction in my home. Sad to not spend time with my kids and grands but they had more time with the other side of their families so I guess that was good. Daughter is back home with BF after we had a small quibble the other day. Nothing that would otherwise keep us apart but still feeling bad about it. I hope to continue on my good trend with my scale and body fat % losses. All these steps are helping with the leave burning. Another over 20,000 steps yesterday and over 9 miles. My elbow is killing me but my feet and legs say yay!
04/06 …..205.6 ….. Another weight ending in point 6. That means another whole pound down so I’ll take it! TMI helps and so does watching the dairy I think. Still experimenting with that. Another 19,000 steps yesterday burning the leaves. Back and forth to the house to keep an eye on the work crew during the reno. Rain for the next 10 days unless the forecast changes. I’ll find a way to stay as active as I can primarily inside.
04/07 …..207.6 ….. Two pounds overnight is crazy. Lots of veggies yesterday. Healthy eating. 10,200 plus steps. The bad parts? One glass of milk. Fell asleep shortly after a very late dinner and woke up very early for an early weigh-in. Slept 3.5 hours but was wide awake when I woke up.
04/08 …..208.2 ….. What??? Bad points of yesterday: 2 Alcohol drinks totaling about 24 oz. Good side: Healthy eating with lots of good veggies. No dairy. Over 12,000 steps. I managed to get away yesterday (when the work crew left early) for my first hike of the season. I walked several miles on a rugged and rustic trail following the river. It felt great on my legs and body but breathing was a little rough at times. It was a beautiful day. Pushing water today to see if that helps. I slept 5 hours last night which is better than usual.

Goals for this round:
- Maintain between 123 and 125
- Begin following 10 week strength training program (and keep up with it!)
Still sticking around, as long as you guys will have me. 😂. Continuing to try and get into a maintenance mindset rather than a weight loss mindset. There is Easter, my husband’s birthday and a friend’s birthday for me this round, so I will be happy to end it around the same weight as I’m starting it.
4/2 - 125 - High, but I had popcorn last night as my husband and I finished the last 3 episodes of a season we’ve been watching. I also made lemon ricotta cookies with the kids and again, ate too many of them. I think I need to switch our baking to cakes and pies - when we make something with individual portions I eat way too many. Its much easier to control myself when I have to serve out the pieces.
4/3 - DNW
4/4 - DNW
4/5 - 126.4 - Two days of parties, birthday cakes and Easter dinner will definitely have an impact. Its been crazy busy this past weekend; I didn’t even have time to weigh the past two mornings - on Saturday it was my friend’s 2-year old son’s birthday and I made the cake for them - so plenty of tasting and decorating, plus the dinner at the little party (just us and them). Then yesterday was Easter - lots of candy, Easter dinner of ham, potatoes, asparagus, rolls - and it was my husband’s birthday, so I made him a cake and let the kids decorate it. I’m surprised I’m only up 2-3 lbs! Let’s see how it settles out over the next few days. I also started a new strength training program this morning- Caroline Girvan’s EPIC Heat series. It started with leg day and it was a serious workout! I can’t wait to keep going with it.
4/6 - 126.2 - I’m just going to expect the scale to stay around 125 - 128 for awhile as I adjust to these new workouts. Plus it’s tough to regain a calorie deficit with cake and lots of Easter candy still in the house. I’m at a healthy weight - now it’s about toning and getting stronger. As long as I’m not pushing 130 I won’t worry.
4/7 - 125.4 - Back on track with calories, though I’m not getting quite enough protein in terms of macros. My legs were still sore this morning from Monday’s workout, and today’s workout was also legs - I’m not going to be walking much tomorrow! I appreciate feeling challenged though - it makes me feel like I really can make progress and I feel so proud of myself when I finish.
4/8 - 125.0 - Weight is still making its way back down. I had a too few many cookies last night, but made myself freeze the rest of them for another time. We have way too much sugar and candy in the house already. I went for a 5K run this morning - it felt good to stretch out my legs! Hoping to get some time working in the garden today as well.

2: 202.5 I'm up 12 lbs from my lowest weight that I reached in January 2020. Considering the absolute insanity of the last year or so, I am beyond thrilled that it isn't more! I'm so, so ready to reach the 175 range, which is what I weighed before I got pregnant with my first child 20 years ago. I'm giving myself some time to ease back into 100% primal eating. Some days might be 100%, and others might be 60%, but as long as I'm making overall progress, I'm happy with that. I've gotten into some bad carb habits over the last year, which is also why I'm surprised I haven't put on more weight. I started walking a few times a week most weeks about 4 months ago, but now that I'm doing a fascia recovery program I need to switch to no-impact exercises. Hopped on an elliptical yesterday and was shocked to make it 40 minutes because I find it so much more challenging than even a brisk walk. I'd like to add some rowing in, as well, and hopefully some weight training in the near future as I progress with this fascia program I'm following. I'm glad to be back with all of you and happy to see so many familiar faces!
3: 203.4 Rest day yesterday, plus calories were closer to maintenance. I expect to be down again tomorrow.
4: 203.4 Forgot to post because if the holiday.
5: 203.3 🥚After not weighing in daily for so long, I had forgotten that ovulating spikes my weight for a few days. Rest day and holiday didn't help, though I didn't do terribly either day. We'll see what tomorrow brings, but I'm not stressing. Heading to the gym for an elliptical session shortly, to be followed by my first full body fascia blasting.
6: 202.5 Back to my round starting weight! Lol Really though, between the holiday and ovulating, I'm pretty stoked about this. Food is planned for the rest of the day without taking my late afternoon exercise into account. I just need to stay focused on my water intake. On a side note, is anyone else having issues with MFP and FitBit not syncing steps or exercise calories until 11:59pm?
7: DNW - A friend was in crisis mode and needed a friend and a few drinks and Mexican food yesterday. Didn't feel great when I woke up. I'm sure the scale would've hated me though.
8: 205.0 Yeaaaa. So that spike sucks, but I'm not letting it get me down. Life happens, and I find I'm happiest when I can just be flexible and go with it. Fasting today. Got on the elliptical for 45 minutes and got my fascia blasting done for the day, so I'm feeling pretty productive.

04/02 Did not weigh this morning. Started my day with a 20 minute spin bike ride because I knew I wasn’t going to have time later in the day. It’s our CSA pick up today, so for breakfast I made a frittata to use up our left over fresh spinach from last week along with carrots, potato, and breakfast sausage. It was yummy and now I’ll have breakfast for the next 3-4 days depending on if my husband has any more of it. Tonight we’ll be getting take-out from the Thai place down the street and I still haven’t figured out what I want.
04/03 Today has been a day filled with cleaning, but now it’s done and I get to relax. I also did a 25 minute spin bike workout this morning after cleaning because I knew I wouldn’t want to exercise later this afternoon. Now it’s time to meal plan and set up my bullet journal for the week and reflect on what worked for my spreads this month and what didn’t. Super sleepy as well because I slept weird last night. Breakfast was the frittata I made yesterday and a cut up apple. I’m not sure what my snack will be but dinner will be drumsticks with this buffalo parmesan wing sauce we got last weekend along with oven fries and maybe some greens.

04/08 Weighed yesterday and I was 116.2. Easter was nice for us. It was so nice to see my in-laws after so long. Food has been pretty decent except for the other night choosing onion rings with my wrap instead of a salad but I ended up not even finishing them. Tonight, will be leftover pork chops with roasted veggies for dinner. Breakfast was a beet blueberry smoothie with toast and butter. My snack is an apple withy spicy chakri mix. I hope everyone has been doing well. I really have to figure out a routine again with posting daily. That’s been really challenging for me lately.

Day/Weight/Comment
04/02- 214lb. Bad few days, feeling ready to go again today. Meals all logged for today, lots of water and exercise. Going to have a very healthy 10 days. I’m on Easter break now, so exercise will go through the roof!
04/03- 213.4lb. Back on it yesterday and I already feel better. Trying to keep up my water consumption and my alcohol consumption down will be hard over this Easter break. I’m just agonising over which gym to join, crossfit gym (which is superb but limited by class timings) or my local council gym which is full of cardio machines, but hardly any weight areas.
04/04- 211.6lb. Decent loss on the scales this morning. Loads of exercise this weekend. Feel very positive.
04/05- 212.6lb. High sodium dinner last night. Long bank holiday walk this morning, going to shoot for 10 miles. Trying a new veggie recipe today which sounds amazing- not sure my partner agrees though.
04/06- 212.2lb. Stomach feels bloated this morning. Had a great veggie meal yesterday which my partner loved- she didn’t even mention the lack of meat! Just joined a gym ready for them being allowed to reopen on 12th April. Feeling motivated to smash through my goals at the moment.
04/07- 211.2lb. No walking yesterday, so I had to be more disciplined when sticking to my calories. Going to go for a long walk today, drink plenty of water and prep some healthy meals for the next couple of days.
04/08- 212.6lb. Big jump up on the scales. Feel full of a cold and have been exercising quite hard and walking a lot of miles. Calories have been around the mark consistently for a while now, even if I have a few days over, it averages out across the week. Not worried about the jump, but would love to end the round around or below 211.
