    Weight in day:
    Starting weight: 180
    Current weight: 182
    Not only didn't I lost but I gained. Last week I hit 178 and I just had to ruin all week training within 2 days. The weekend was a disaster. Didn't log, didn't exercise that much, and didn't drink enough water at all. I just can't understand what has gotten into me. I need to fix that this week.

    @IvanaKirilova We all do it sometimes....after a loss on the scales we get a little complacent. In the back of our minds we figure we "deserve this treat" or "deserve this day off" because we had a good weigh-in. You know why the number went up, and you know how to make it come back down again. Learn from the weekend and really examine what was going through your mind at the time....and then let it go and move forward.

    @sandkp It is great when people notice the positive changes in us....it's even sweeter when it is family!

    It was my mother's birthday. What a great start to the week. Not for my weight loss journey tho.

    @IvanaKirilova Those are the days we can let loose a little and not feel guilty....family celebrations are important! You have the rest of the week to buckle down!!

    I have a feeling this entire week is just going to be off for me. Probably not on much and definitely not on my accountability schedule as i have been. I am taking in all 3 to 5 kiddos (haha grrown and college kiddos) running in and out along with an extra cat and dog. (My house was quiet last week with just hubs and me and a fish!) This is in addition to prepping for the big meal and all the cooking that comes my way over the next two days. Hoping the scale will be nice to me tomorrow but i also know i havent been eating right (or enough) and that is not gonna help me. After 2 big weeks I am hoping for a continuation but will settle for no gain. **we wont even discuss next weeks weigh in after the holiday!

    For those that celebrate, Happy Thanksgiving. For those that don't, hope you have a great week.

    @DaffyGirl88 Sorry about that. The concert was good, though. I thought the cold would have made her voice weak, but it didn't. She sang for a solid 90 minutes. It was hard to carry a drink and food and eat in a lawn chair in the dark, so I just had one cup of wine and some french fries. We had some more wine and nachos with salsa back at our friends' place afterwards.

    I think we are all getting really busy with holiday stuff. I unpacked some more totes and boxes. Washed some glass dishes and reorganized cupboard space. I am starting a yard sale box for spring. I have way too much stuff. I sure have a lot of stuff, threw a few pottery dishes out that I had made.

  • Hi.

    I'm sorry to have been missing for the last couple of months. I had 3 holidays close together and I've asked to rejoin the group in December. I've had a fabulous time but not weighing in and no way to measure my food I have inevitably put on weight. I need to lose at least some before my birthday and Christmas.

    Lots of changes on this site while I've been away...I'll try to hone my navigational skills.

    Will check the latest posts out soon

    I will take the loss but hoping to get on a better track of eating enough to not slow my progress..well.. enough of the right foods! I know the next week weigh in will be rough.. but I do have 3 days to sweat this weekend off after the kiddos leave.

    My full house was here and running before 8 so gonna be another busy day of kids, animals and togetherness. At least they are all old enough to use knives and not take half my food with it when they peel... they have some major peeling to do for foods and pies. πŸ™‚

    Sometimes I just want to give up. I take one step forward, and then 10 back. Ugh!

    I finished my free week at the gym(did great!) And then came down with a nasty cold, so asked if I could sign up but wait until today to activate it, as I thought i would be feeling better... nope! Guess who has covid! Yep, me!

    Now, I have to quarantine at least 10 days, out of work for 14, and can't start using my brand spanking new gym membership until I'm symptom free. We also will be missing out on seeing family that we haven't seen in two years. Meanwhile, hubby's fine and just upset that I've got covid, so he can't go. The only positive is i won't be eating all that food.

    I'm just upset because I've got my plan in motion, and am hitting every speed-up along the way!

    But, because I still feel awful, I'm going back to sleep... Maybe this time will go REALLY fast. *fingers crossed*

    Thank you for your support, encouragement and advice last week . I was able to get back up from last week, even though my dieting isn't perfect because of being relaxed with the holiday. I am not binging.

    I am so sorry. Get better real soon. I know it sucks to be sick during the holiday. Maybe Christmas will work out better.

    Can I put in a early weigh in?
    188.0 lbs

    I didn't want to weigh in the day after Thanksgiving. My goal is to still weigh today's weight or less by next week.
