    We're back to civilization and cellphone coverage! We had a great weekend. I'm getting a new hairstyle tomorrow.

    Here in Canada it's Labour Day weekend! Nothing special going on again this year with COVID. Normally I am working at a fair here all weekend. Got all my workouts done and grocery shopping for healthy foods. Didn't make it to the lawn today. Tomorrow I have another busy day.

    It's Labor Day weekend here too.

    We'll see how I do at TOPS tomorrow morning. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a small gain. But I'll do better next week.

    I got my hair cut this afternoon. There was about 3" cut off. It's still longish, more shoulder length.

    You've got this! Just think no matter what you weigh tomorrow it's still lighter than before the hair cut.

    I just learned that there is a SP group here in MyFitnessPal. I'm not sure whether to join it or not. It's private. It's to keep out the undesirables.

    I did get a friend invite from a woman that had a picture of her with a boob hanging out. Others have had friend invites from naked men. So the group is to keep those out.

    Today was a great day! Went to TOPS and lost 3.5 lbs this week! I was so shocked as I thought I was going to gain. Was highest loser this week for the group.

    I know that there are several for us. The only thing you can do is try it out and see if you like it. You can always leave the group.

    I gained another pound at TOPS this morning. Ugh! I'm not really surprised. I've had 2 weekends in a row (3 days each) that I ate other people's cooking. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't good for the waste.

    Summer is almost over. I have some options. I don't have jeans that fit. So I have to buy new ones. NOT! Wear shorts all winter. NOT! Wear leggings all winter. Doable. Best option is to lose the weight. I'm for it.

    Bea 1 lb is not bad. You've got this! Try throwing in a little more activity. I find this can help.

    Today was a very productive day. Back on the exercise train again. Went shopping and bought a size medium spandex leggings. That's two sizes down from the last time I bought them a few months ago. Woohoo!

    Today, I brought Mary to Missoula for her monthly shopping. She's in Walmart now. I finished shopping, so I'm waiting on her. I know she'll buy a dozen donuts and give me one. It's her way of "paying me back". I don't charge her for gas. She's on a tight budget. I made a point of having extra calories today, so I can still be in calorie range. I'll enjoy the treat!

    You're such a great friend! Mary is very lucky to have you. Great plan to leave room for a treat you know you'll be having.

    Today was a busy day. Took Mom to appointment, mowed a lawn for landlord, and visited some friends. Also trying to get ready to head to spend weekend with son. I struggle with calories there as my sister and her man buy a lot of high calorie foods.

    It's hard to eat healthy in other's home.

    Yes it is but I usually manage as son is always willing to purchase veggies for salad if they're not in the house.

    Had another great day with my Son. Now I am home and wishing I could go back lol. Just seem to have more time to do things when I am there. Even when I doing cleaning and other jobs for my Sister. The only catch is her and her boyfriend need to stay away. Oh well it was a nice break while it lasted.

    I've had a busy lady few days but good. We dog sat our son's 2 dogs. Then yesterday, as usual, I got up early, grabbed my breakfast and took off walking. While walking, my brother called. He was in Missoula and wanted to meet at Cracker Barrel for breakfast. Ugh! We went down there. Breakfast is the worst meal at most restaurants. I got pancakes off the kids menu. It was the lightest I could go.

    I still managed to stay within my calorie range. But I had a very light lunch (protein drink and banana). Peppers and carrots for snacks. Chicken Vegetable Soup for dinner and a salad. Our son came back to get his dogs and do a little repair work on our house.
