I like to track averages due to my wild fluctuations. For the same reason, I like to weigh daily so I can see the lows from time to time. It gives me hope.

I think I escaped the long weekend with minimal damage. But, let’s just say it is a good thing it was not any longer.

Busy week at work. I need to avoid the pantry because I just start munching under pressure.

Had a happy hour get together in the back yard of a neighbor. My picture is next to the word glutton in the dictionary.

Sorry I have been out of touch. My weekend was full of morning activities, which is when I usually post here. I haven’t had a lot of screen time with the PC (which is where I write these posts.) As you can see I am hovering.

Round 152 Goal -233 lbs
Round 152 Day/Weight/Comment
6/1 236.8; morning blood sugar 134. not terrible after the holiday cookout. Indulging in my wife's strawberry cheesecake was not a great diet choice but a politically astute one.
6/2 236.0; morning blood sugar 130. I need to get out and walk before the weather turns this afternoon.
6/3 232.8; NOPE. Not believing it, do not get excited. I did nothing that would produce a "woosh" so I am calling this a random scale error until I see it for a few days. morning blood sugar 137.
6/4 235.2; as I suspected, the scale pixies were messing with me yesterday.... still I like the trend. MBS 134
6/5 NW - travel day
6/6 NW - travel day
6:7 235.2; MBS 151. So the road trip didn't hurt me weight-wise, but the BS tells me I made too many bad choices night. Back to the grind.

Previous days6/1 116.0 Happy with this number and looking forward to seeing where it goes from here. Started the day with a 2 mile run and then a 2 mile walk on my munch. The dinner I made last night was kind of a fail, I attempted a curried butternut squash soup and then roasted Bratwurst on the side as the protein. The soup was a fail. I pushed through it but my husband couldn’t, so he ended up with chicken steamed pot stickers from Trader Joes and some of the Bratwurst. Tonight’s dinner will be sauteed chicken tenderloins with basic spices, brown rice and mashed turnip (I have CSA turnip to cook so the rice is for my husband in case he’s not a fan of the turnip). Breakfast today was an egg, 100 gms of the Bratwurst, sauteed spinach and toast with cream cheese. It was solid and very filling. My snack were strawberries and grapes plus a sliced up cucumber with Everything But the Elote seasoning from TJ’s. Have a good night!
6/2 checked in from mobile.
6/3 115.2 Did not post but was very excited about this number. (Did a 2 mile run in the morning and a super short walk during the day.)
6/4 115.6 Did not post but was cool with this.(20 minute spin bike workout and only a mile walk during a work break.)
6/5 Did not weigh this morning but everything was good foodwise yesterday. For an easy dinner, I ordered out from B. Good and got a Chipotle chicken sandwich for around 600 calories and tried their eggplant ball things with hummus. Having that for dinner put me right at maintenance level which was a good treat after being in a deficit all week. I have a lot on my agenda for today and designing a strength training program for myself is one of them. I also have to blanch and then freeze a bunch of spinach we have from the CSA. We have 5 8 oz bags of it in the fridge and I’ve eaten so much over the past month or so. I’m so sick of the fuzzy weird feeling your teeth get from the oxalic acid in it, that I just need a break from it. Have a good day all!
Ps. A break through has been made with my husband…after him working in a rehab hospital for almost 3 months and seeing the lifelong effects of a poor diet on essentially all of his patients, he’s truly decided to continue eating healthy and stress eat less! He also watched some Youtube video clip explaining how the brain creates new neuro pathways whenever you eat an unhealthy meal (think high in unhealthy fats, salt and sugar meal). So, then after eating that unhealthy meal, it causes you to want more unhealthy/bingey types foods. So, he has decided to limit the amount of not the greatest takeout he gets.
6/6 Did not weigh. But ended up weighing later on Saturday morning and clocked in at 115 😊.
6:7 115.8 Did a strength straining workout this weekend and my legs are still sore, so I’m thinking this is a blip up and the heat we had this weekend doesn’t help swelling either. I’m currently tweaking my diet to add more protein throughout the day as well now that I’m adding another layer of exercise to my routine. Started the day with a 20 minute spin bike ride and will go for my lunch walk and I’ll end my work day with a strength session. I’m starting the program in the book “Strong” by Lou Shuler and Alwynn Cosgrove because it seems very doable for me. I’ve had the book for a while and never committed to it, but now I’m intrigued and think it will be a good fit for me. Food was good the past two days and if I ended up going a little over maintenance it was only by a couple hundred
calories. So, I’ll call this t weekend a win by only getting takeout once(B. Good sandwich). TOM is arriving next weekend, so I expect to only stay around this weight. Happy Monday all. My work week is going to be crazy, so please excuse me if I miss posting a day or two again.

SW: 252.2
Day/Weight/Comment
6/1 – 252.2 – I ended Round 150 at 251.8 and missed the first few days of Round 151 so I did not participate. Gained a little back since then, but I am overall pleased because it isn’t that much and I know that if I get refocused, I can handle it. This past weekend over the holiday was an eye-opener though. I didn’t expect it to be so hard to stay on track, but with family in town and all the festivities I struggled to log my food and exercise entries into my diary on here, luckily, I did have a physical journal in my purse so I could write it down and enter as soon as I was able this morning. I struggled in general though with all the deserts, food, and alcohol that everyone else was consuming. I did give into drinking one Seagram’s beverage. I know they are empty calories and not good for a person, but step by step I will reach my goal.
6/2 – Did not get weight this morning. Planning on starting a light exercise regimen tonight as well, hopefully, I can kick start my weight loss again. ** Was able to weigh myself yesterday during my lunch break at it was 254.1 lbs. Don’t know how I feel about that. That is a nearly 2 lb. increase from the day before**
6/3 – 251.2 – Feeling like that is inaccurate based on yesterday’s weight, but if I compare it to Tuesday’s weight, I feel like I am on the right track. Went out for pizza with my mom and 8-year-old niece yesterday for lunch while the kids are visiting for the summer. Two slices alone totaled my daily recommended calories according to MFP when I searched and tracked meals in my food diary. That makes me feel like I can’t enjoy those types of outings because it feels like a setback. If anyone has any advice regarding handling the feelings of failure and balancing that with still enjoying the little things, I will gladly take it.
6/4 – 251.0 lbs.
6/5 – 250.2 lbs.
6/6 – 249.6 lbs.
6/7 - 250.7 lbs. – Took Friday off work to spend time with my stepson, niece, and nephew, so data was not entered. We enjoyed a two-night slumber party and even went swimming on Friday afternoon. Enjoyed seeing the numbers go down over the weekend, even though they are once again up today. Continuing to focus on meeting my daily water intake goal and increase my average step count a little more each day. Unfortunately, I did not begin my exercise regimen as planned last Wednesday. My back was tweaked and hurting pretty severely, been working on stretching and trying to relieve some of that pain and tension.

My scale readings bounced up 4 pounds when I changed batteries, so I didn’t suddenly gain 4+ pounds. I didn’t want to write that down but, other than the horror of gaining, what difference does it make? So I’m going with the new readings, dammit.

There’s the bump from Sunday’s binge. That’s fine. I spent another 4 hours on “heavy gardening” yesterday, digging things up and replacing, schlepping bags of dirt around, planting new plants. Off in a few for a walk by the river and then a stop for — surprise — more plants. I’m an addict. 🌸🌿🌼🌱🌻 Happy June, everyone!
6/2 - 188.4 - 1951
It’s cool and overcast this morning but heating up later, so I’m off to plant my new hydrangea and yellow Baptisia and then go for a walk. Feeling activated!
6/3 - 188.8 - 1752
It rained all day yesterday and we ordered from Fazoli, so not much activity and heavy food. I still feel weighted down. Ugh. Going to try to eat light and burn some calories today.
6/4 - 188.2 - 1805
More calories but more activity. All good. Moving more plants around my garden this morning, then off for a walk on the greenway.

Woops. Wrong way! Oh, well. I’m still fighting the evening snack monster. Gotta get better control. Ok, off to work in the garden before the heat. Have a great Saturday!

R152-Goals-168 limit alcohol, lots of water. Thank you @quiltingjaine for setting up the round!
6/1-172-New month and a new round-great time to get back on the wagon!!!
6/2-172-and that was after a glass of lemon water and a cup of coffee.....I am moving my hand weights into my sewing room; I spend a lot of time in there.
6/3-169-Glad to be in the 160’s. No bread yesterday.
6/4-168-No bread and walked 2 miles. Finally getting a king sized quilt top put together.
6/5-167-IF 17 Hrs. Walked 2 miles with the horse, came home and walked another mile and worked in the yard, digging and working compost in. Dug and dug and it was over 90 degrees and I sweat like crazy. BBQ-Ed small steaks and some bratwursts for dinner, drank lots of iced green tea and water.
6/6-167-Was hoping for another pound less, but ate bbq pork ribs for dinner, even though I dug a ton in the yard and walked 3 miles. Spent 4 hours in the car...those hours would have been spent working in the yard and drinking green tea otherwise. More yard work today and hopefully some quilting tonight. I wish there were two more hours of daylight in each day.😂
6/7-DNW-Feeling a bit bloated after breakfast out yesterday; I had a waffle, amongst other things. Dug in the yard all day, moving dirt and working in compost, trying to get the flowerbeds sloping right before I plant them. Grapes/cheese for lunch and popcorn for dinner. I’ll get the beginning of a walk in this morning before Garden Club meeting, horse in the afternoon, walk and yard in evening. I finished my king sized quilt top; I need to quilt it next and make pillow shams.9 -
@fmfdfa2020 WAAAAY back in the 70’s I read a medical advice column in the newspaper that said if you were going to skip a meal but wanted SOMETHING, popcorn was the best choice.5

We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19
What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.
This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

Previous days' posts6/1 - 178.7 - Good way to start! Going to row. Soon I'll be on the water in my kayak but today it's in my basement on my waterrower - if I close my eyes, it sounds like you're on the water.
6/2 - 178.0 - Down 5 pounds! I need to learn from my past where I slowly slide back into old habits and gain that 5 pounds back again:
No sugar - my cravings have subsided so much. I'm better able to control myself when those moments happen that make me want to binge. Also, I won't fool myself as I've done in the past that I have more "willpower" now and can handle it. I have more willpower because it's a physical thing with not eating sugar. I've fallen for that too many times and after one day, I'm off on a month-long binge.
Water - drinking water really does help you to stay full or maybe it's also that I'm not really hungry but thirsty. I was going around so dehydrated.
And lastly, Milk - I was drinking my calories. I love milk but also think it was my way of making up for not having sugar. I've stopped it for now too because I have really bad eczema and hoping it may be part of the cause.
Second lastly celebrate all the small changes instead of focusing on my long-term goal, whatever that really ends up being. Oh man, I could keep going but I'll stop! 
6/3 - 178.0
6/4 - 177.5 Great to see but I weighed a little later this morning than normal so may be off. We'll see over the next few days.
6/5 - 6/4 - 177.7
Don't mind a small jump up at all - so glad to stay at 177.X. I noticed a NSV over the past few days. My ankles are no longer swollen. I contribute this to all the water I'm drinking, and maybe not having wheat while I try to determine why my eczema has gone whacky. Love it when you start seeing results on the scale and other ways - there is no better motivator!!
6/6 - 177.2 Surprised to see a drop this morning. I expected it to go up a little after eating popcorn last night. It was air popped and fit into my calorie limit for the day, but with the salt, I thought I would have a little water weight this morning. I always think of popcorn as unhealthy but was reminded when I looked it up in my Healing Foods book that it's actually healthy, if not loaded up with butter and salt. A really good way to get your fiber, too.

Day/Weight/Comment
05/31 …..206.4….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
06/01 …..205.6 ….. Light meals yesterday. Low snacks. A day of success. A nice start for me and so many others!
06/02 …..203.0 ….. Woo Hoo! Lowest weight in a very long time. Good meal planning yesterday and no night time snack. Today my daughter is bring a Thai dinner home for me. Dinner will be late (about 9:00 pm). I will split it in half and have the other half tomorrow. I will eat a very light (late) lunch today, continue a morning fast and push water in anticipation of the sodium. I don’t want to undo what showed up on the scale this morning!
06/03 …..203.2 ….. No Thai food afterall because out-of-town restaurant was temporarily closed. Daughter ended up bringing home Taco Bell and dinner was late at 10:00 pm. No TMI today so I call the small uptick a gut issue. I am thrilled to still be around 203. I’m calling it a whoosh since it does seem to be sticking around.
06/04 …..203.0 ….. I was hoping to dip my toes into the 202’s but I’ll gladly take the TMI that led to a dip back down from yesterday. A perfect eating day yesterday with carefully planned meals and no snacks. I went to bed a bit hungry (was that in my actual tummy or just in my head???). Salmon tonight with a horseradish sauce concoction is in the plan accompanied by some sweet potato (watch the toppings Donna!) . Come on 202’s…….
06/05 …..203.4 ….. I’m not sure why it went up. Omad yesterday with a small healthy snack last night. Bathroom duty good. Extra water yesterday too. My body is just trying to get me back to its comfortable zone, I guess. I won’t allow that! 202’s here I come soon! On my edit....I wonder if it's the taco bell finally showing up? Yikes.....
06/06 …..204.4 ….. Up 1 lb as a result of my diet rest day. Today I will stay on target and drink plenty of water. It is expected to be 93 today which is unusual for northern Michigan USA. No air conditioning so fans will have to do. We’ll see how that fares in this new house I am in. This year will be the test.
06/07 …..204.2 ….. Well, I’ve realized in this new house that the box fans do not fit in the window so I’ve been blowing around hot air and hoping I don’t die. Also, the electric company in Michigan has decided (since June 1st) to raise the rates of electricity between the hours of 2pm and 7pm so it will cost all the disabled and the seniors that are home all day a tremendous amount more (to be paid out of our fixed incomes) while the folks at work sit in air conditioning paid for by their companies (who did not get a rate increase). Thank you Consumers Energy for taking care of the old and the sick!

6/3- 214.4lb. Back on it after missing a few rounds. It’s surprising how quickly you fall off the wagon. Put 5lb on in 50 days or so. Could be worse. I’ve joined a fitness/nutrition program near me, so feeling very motivated atm. Can’t wait to weigh daily again!
6/4- 213.2lb. Good loss, long walk done today plus a short gym session.
6/5- 212lb. Feel really hungover this morning, despite not touching an alcoholic drink for a week!
6/6- 211.6lb. Hectic day today. Was craving late evening snacks today, had a protein shake and a large glass of water. Feel happy I didn’t cave in!
6/7- 211lb. The scales keep on coming down and I am noticing that I am eating a bit less than I normally do when I track with MFP- not starving myself but maybe due to the heat and remnants of a chest infection, I’m not really as hungry as I have been.

😷Take care! Stay safe!😷
June focus: maintain < 150
improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:2021 Focus:JGM10D ~|~ Round 152- 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.

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.

The scales keep on coming down and I am noticing that I am eating a bit less than I normally do when I track with MFP- not starving myself but maybe due to the heat and remnants of a chest infection, I’m not really as hungry as I have been.
I've noticed in the hotter months, especially if I'm outside more, I lose my appetite. I had soldiers assigned to ensure I eat 3 times a day in the Army while out at training because I'd forget to eat! I just didn't feel hungry and never paid enough attention. They were sweet about it, though, and just reminded me it's chow time and invite me along so I wouldn't forget. Wasn't so bad if I was in the office or at home since I had A/C that froze me and I was constantly nibbling. It's now getting hot enough here if I'm outside long enough, I won't be hungry at all. Great for keeping a nice deficit, but can be dangerous if I'm not being mindful (not so much fasting, moreso my electrolyte balance since I typically only drink water. I try to keep some pedialyte (or generic) in stock during summer for that reason).4 -

JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS ~ Round 152 (round 84 for me ) I continue to prove time after time that I need this to help me keep on track! Thank you @QuiltingJaine for setting up the new challenge.
Female age 63 5' 4” - I went AWOL the last 3 days! We went away for the Bank Holiday weekend, I didn't take the scales, didn't log and didn't even visit MFP, but I was careful with what I ate, admittedly I had a few extra “goodies” mainly in the adult beverage dept. but did lots of walking up hill and down dale as well at times. My challenge for this round is to lose 2 pounds which will put me back on the road towards mainteneance. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.
Keep calm – we're all in this together! Wash hands, be kind, continue to follow all latest Government guidelines in roadmap to normality for C-19 virus. Be positive for thefuture – I've both of my vaccines.Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and then gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then & didn't want to gain any more, It's took me 75 rounds to achieve my under 130 target; back to maintenance again!! A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.

Day/Weight/Comment
6/1 135.8 – 8.82 miles walked yesterday. All ready to crack on today!! Will catch up on the last 3 days posts in last round at some stage today.
6/2 135.8 – 12.35 miles walked yesterday, met up with sister for lunch, ate within calories.
6/3 136.4 – 9.36 miles walked yesterday, I really need to get my self control into gear and back into my routine!
6/4 135.4 – 12.15 miles walked yesterday, calories well within goal, a very good day yesterday, need to be consistant in days ahead – consistency is paramount!
6/5 135.4 – 10.57 miles walked yesterday, 33 calories over and a heavy carb day due to pizza, but otherwise a good day.
6/6 134.4 - No structured walking as travelled up 80 miles to see our brand new baby DGD, a wonderful sister for DGD#1, hence calories were over. DS cooked a bbq, I did over indulge slightly, but to balance it out I only wanted a bit of fruit for evening meal!
6/7 133.8 - 9.8 miles walked yesterday. Calories & all macros in credit.
6/8 134.4 – no structured walking, caring for little DGD. Calories & macros all slightly over.

Main goal(s) - 1. Count calories even when with partner/at social events, even if it’s not perfect an estimate is better than nothing! 2. Don’t allow a little slip up or not being able to track properly to derail me 3. Anything can be worked into your daily calorie goal 4. Use this challenge to identify problem habits/patterns and change them 5. Sacrifices now equal results later

6/1 - 162.2 - happy
6/2 - 161.0 - determined to keep this progress this time! Each round I seem to make good progress and then go right back to where I started, only to spend the next round getting back to where I was. This challenge has made that abundantly clear. Need to put more effort into making better choices, especially when eating out.
6/3 - 160.0 - great first day off but still woke up quite early, but also slept a lot during the day, I’ve been tired!
6/4 - 160.8 - little bit up but that’s okay, went a little over my calories yesterday
6/5 - 160.2 - pleased with this, today’s the day I go for lunch with my partners family but I feel much more prepared than on other occasions. I’ve pre-picked what I’m going to order and I’m confident about the calories. I won’t be able to weigh tomorrow but watch this space!

Round 152 Day/Weight/Comment
6/1 236.8; morning blood sugar 134. not terrible after the holiday cookout. Indulging in my wife's strawberry cheesecake was not a great diet choice but a politically astute one.
6/2 236.0; morning blood sugar 130. I need to get out and walk before the weather turns this afternoon.
6/3 232.8; NOPE. Not believing it, do not get excited. I did nothing that would produce a "woosh" so I am calling this a random scale error until I see it for a few days. morning blood sugar 137.
6/4 235.2; as I suspected, the scale pixies were messing with me yesterday.... still I like the trend. MBS 134
6/5 NW - travel day
6/6 NW - travel day
6:7 235.2; MBS 151. So the road trip didn't hurt me weight-wise, but the BS tells me I made too many bad choices night. Back to the grind.

06/08 - 148.5 - I have no idea what this is about. Drank 90 oz water, fasted for 18.5 hours, under calorie budget, did my workout and took the pup on two walks (one morning, one after dinner). I don't look or feel bloated. The scale is a funny thing... Not terribly worried about it, although it is frustrating.

Previous Day's Comments06/01 - Definitely expected a jump up on the scale. Quite happy it didn't! Linner ended up being a later dinner (6:30-7) instead and I broke my fast at 17 hours with a small bit of meat and cheese since I started feeling a little iffy. Ended up losing my water cup (Fam found it after we left) and didn't get my water in. I don't even know how much I drank other than not enough. Tonight we are back at Fam's for my GodDaughter's 5th birthday! She wanted steak, shrimp, and boudain! Need to figure out what's on hand for a light lunch to balance out a heavy dinner. I have another water bottle right now that I know measurements and will be focusing on that for sure today, especially since work will be busy
06/02 - Birthday was a success. BF and I split a piece of cake and stayed within calories including exercise. Drank 90 oz water, fasted 16.5 hours. Kiddos coming today, BF is up getting ready to head out to get them. I'm up early because I'm a light sleeper and have to be up in 45 minutes anyway for work. Will be grocery shopping tomorrow or Friday with kiddos to get them cereal, milk, and to pick out lunch stuff so I'll be able to grab a couple healthier lunch things for me as well. I think I have some frozen veg I can whip up for lunch today. Think dinner will be with Fam again so their kids can see ours (they LOVE each other). Plus, our kids haven't met my Godson since he had his transplant. A whole different kid since then and they're in for a treat! Hopefully I'll be more awake after my morning meeting to sneak in a workout since I'll be in the house alone.
06/03 - Definitely expected to be up. Kids got home late and wanted food. BF wasn't hungry. We all walked to Sonic to get dinner at 830pm (eek! I hadn't eaten, either so I was ravenous). Only fasted 14.5 hours yesterday and then that super late dinner will cause another short fast today. I'll be back on track for fasting tomorrow and hopefully being over calories yesterday won't rear its ugly head at me then.
06/04 - Not sure if this was Asian food (homemade, but still has plenty of sodium), two days ago finally catching up, or both. Also, I've noticed a firmness in my legs and glutes I hadn't noticed before. I look hourglass, but my hips, glutes, and upper legs carry most of my weight. I noticed my hips and booty looked way small once I started losing some weight and decided I don't like that! My lower body is my powerhouse!!! My kickboxing workout is a full body, but still quite leg/glute/hip heavy and I love it. Plus, my surgeon said to keep my glutes and hips strong to help keep my spine stable in hopes of pushing off another fusion as long as possible. I think I assumed I had decent muscle because I have a bit of a booty but now I'm starting to see it may just be genetics depositing a lot of fat there. It's nice to have muscle instead, I feel so much stronger (: With that, this little plateau may be me not being 100% perfect in diet along with gaining some muscle faster than losing fat. But the muscle will help burn that fat so I'm alright with it. I know what dinner is tonight, thankfully, so I can plan head for today. If the rain holds off, I'll try for a walk with the pup
06/05 - Homemade enchiladas last night and pizza for lunch. Dairy overload. Didn't work out, but lots and lots of walking and playing (17,590 steps. My normal is 5,000-7,000 on non workout days). Fasted for 17.75 hours. Drank about 100 oz water. Finally got some decent sleep in!
06/06 - I know I couldn't have out-eaten my exercise calories.... But I definitely did not get enough water in. At a car show and couldn't bring my water bottle in. To buy was EXPENSIVE and it was HOT out. Today we are going to the land so I'm hoping that we are able to stop at the store to grab more waters (especially for kids). I don't have much of a job or anything to do, so hopefully I won't get distracted enough to forget to drink. Must try to drink extra since it's another hot hot hot day. Finally starting to feel like summer
06/07 - I'll take that! I managed to drink about 107 oz. Maybe not quiiiiite enough, but better and the weight shows the improvement. Didn't exercise normal, but kiddos wanted to play baseball (4 person) so I ended up running after balls that were hit. Did get a bit of a sunburn from being in the sun literally all day so recovering from that. I have some cream, but now looking into making more. Haven't been good with fasting, but given the circumstances, it was by choice to ensure I'd be alright. Today should be easy to hit 16 hours, hoping for longer. Woke up from middle of a dream so have a headache now, hoping it'll pass soon so I can knock out a workout.
