    Was there a week three tally that I missed?

    Whoops. Nevermind. I found it.
    I did OK. Y’all did great.

    Tracked: Yes
    Under: Yes
    Exercise: Yes, went for a (short) walk with the kids and played at the playground. SOOOOO hot and humid.

    This morning, I'm starting the packing for family vacation, but hope to go out for a walk this afternoon with the kiddos. Was hoping to go for a bike ride, but the spousal unit won't be home in time for me to go. Blerg.

    You guys - I am sooo sorry, I let you and I let me down in July and I honestly have no clue how I gained so much! Final (early) weigh in before heading to the airport today was 168.2!!!! I am not going to dwell on it, but I am really going to try to get a handle on it. I know that the stress of trip prep, and dog waking me up growling at thunder at 4am, and chinese food for dinner, didn't help. But those are all just excuses and the month long trend was up instead of down.

    AUGUST I NEED YOU!!!!!!!!!!!

    see you after Utah!

    p.s. I thought I posted this earlier but couldn't find the post, so if it's duplicated, then again tech gets the better of me....

    Honestly? That sounds like a lot of reasons for water weight.

    I'm weighing in because if I don't I'll put on even more pounds.

    It won't look good for the group stats, but it will make me face up to where I am.

    I didn't weigh in on Wednesday, my usual day, but I weighed in yesterday, Thursday, and I was 139.2lbs. I am determined not to go back to the 140s

    LW 139.2lbs
    CW 138.0lbs

    Tracked: Yes
    Under: Yes
    Exercised: Yes, nothing formal but I did a ton of heavy-duty housework to get ready to leave for vacation on Friday -- up and down stairs carrying laundry baskets, on the floor scrubbing floors, lifting huge bags of stuff to put in attic for storage.

    Oh. Hey. It’s Wednesday!
    Time for me to report:

    Last weigh in: 213.5
    Current weight: 212.2

    Not much. But after last week? I expected to remain flat, so I’ll take it.

    Tracked: Yes
    Under: Yes
    Exercise: Yes. I took the kids to the zoo for a few hours (an hour plus of actual moving time, though).

    Tomorrow we pack. Vacation travel on Friday, then gone for 10 days. I'll still check in as I can, and will still report weigh-in on Friday. I'm pretty stressed out this week.

    @MargaretYakoda A solid pound lost the week after a "whoosh" is indeed a good thing!!

    Wednesday the 28th

    logged: yes
    under: technically, no, over by 5 calories
    exercise: no

    water: yes, 12 cups
    steps: 3,586

    I had a restless night, so I got up really early. I believe I woke up because I was hungry...I have been eating at a deficit since Saturday. Anyways, I was up for a bit, had some oatmeal, then went back to bed. Well, when I woke up mid morning I, of course, felt like a sack of potatoes, so it was a do nothing kind of day. The hardest part was staying within my calories since I had no extra calories from steps.

    @gamommy2 Holding steady....nothing wrong with that when you are really busy and focusing on other things!! It's so easy to eat mindlessly in those times and put on a couple of pounds instead!

    @CycleMomOf3 Yes, it is always a lot of work beforehand to make a vacation happen, especially with children. But the vacation is almost always worth it!! (My husband and I and our two young children once rented a cottage with my sister and brother-in-law and their two young children....let's just say we never did that again!)

    Posting 07.29.21 daily update since it's more or less in the bag and I won't be readily available tomorrow (travel day):

    Tracked: Yes, like it's a darn religion.
    Under: Yes. Actually, too busy to eat, which isn't great either.
    Exercise: Lots of running here and there. Nothing formal, but a ton of movement. Suitcases, packing, putting some things away from the back yard, and planning to do some much-needed yoga this evening with these 3 hyperactively excited minions of chaos. Visiting my in-laws in Wilmington, NC. Was told I can't take my bike or my paddle board with me (by my spousal unit; reason: no room). I offered to strap HIM to the roof to make room, but that didn't go over well. :wink:

    Travelling tomorrow, but will post my weigh-in by day's end. Taking my food scale and my scale scale with me. Have a plan. Hoping to stick with it. Wish me luck. Cheers!
