Day/Weight/Comment
01/06 …..194.0….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND
01/07 …..192.6 ….. (Trend weight 191.9) Diet was about the same but I did get in some more housework type movement. Flooring is very close to being done. Today should be the final day. I worked on packing away Christmas items in some limited areas during the work. That calorie burn clearly made the difference today on the scale.
01/08 …..191.2 ….. Trend weight 191.9) Continued progress which I am grateful for. Again, I did not make any major dietary changes (I’ve been keeping it pretty good under the circumstances), but more movement as I continued to work on Christmas décor and replacing it back with my usual stuff. Floor is 95% done with only some minor work such as moulding replacement etc. to be done. Today my handyman will finish and then begin helping with the Christmas work. Two trees should come down today. I woke up STARVING. I am going to try to stick to some high protein choices and some healthy fat to fill up my belly.
01/09 …..192.2 ….. (Trend weight 191.9) Very nice well-planned meals yesterday. Binge on snacks last night. The uptick is my own fault. I’ll do better today.
01/10 …..194.4 ….. (Trend weight 192.1)A ton of company unexpected last night. Pizza for dinner. Huge leap on the scale. Pushing water today.

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.

Please join us! Starting on 01/07 JUST GIVE ME 10 DAYS, we will begin Round 174
Anyone can join us at anytime during the round.
Join us! If we stay mindful we can do this, you can do this.
Welcome back past members, welcome new members, let's keep each other accountable for another 10 days!
Here is what you do: Post your daily weight and add little comments along the way of how your day went. Post everyday to let us know how you're doing! Copy and paste the days in your response--tell us how much you lost and other non scale victories (NSV) you'd like to share.
FOR NEWBIES - I find it easiest to copy the dates to a document or note in my device and edit it each morning. Then copy and paste to the message board. MFP will return you to the spot on the board where you left off on your previous visit which is nice to know if you like to scan all of the posts.

1/7- 211.6- great day but a little worried about the weekend.
1/8- 210.8- I had a great Friday but tonight is a ‘cheat’ day. I have volleyball and it’s a beer league.
1/9- 210.4- I was expecting a slight bump. Hoping to do extremely well so I don’t see that gain tomorrow.
1/10- 210.4 - decent day yesterday, at least it was enough to stop a gain from Saturday

01/07 / 186.8 / First day of work for 2022 was today! Busy day... one week work weeks are the best
01/08 / 185.2 / Really had trouble sleeping overnight. Luckily today is low key so I can rest up more this morning as needed.
01/09 / 185.4 / Set a new 45 minute PR on the Peloton yesterday, finished up some leftover frozen appetizers from the holiday season, and watched some movies with the hubby. Also got out for my first outdoor walk of 2022... the weather is improving this week! Woo hoo!
01/10 / 184.8 / One of my intentions for 2022 is to use this new body I have in all sorts of fun ways. So, yesterday we went snowshoeing. It was a lot of fun and thank goodness the cold is breaking a bit here in Alberta. This morning I did my 100th Peloton ride live and got a shout out and that felt very encouraging to me. Proud of how far I've come and excited to keep moving forward.

I’m 5’7, 29 years old, female. I follow a lifting
program and would like to decrease my body fat while maintaining muscle mass.
My starting weight in Oct 2021 was 156.6
Goals: stay in a mild calorie deficit, hit 110-140 grams of protein per day, 20-30 minutes of cardio on lifting days (4xweek, non-work days), complete all 6 programmed strength training sessions during my 4 days off per week

Previous Posts1/7 WHEW what a welcome back to work. Critical care during Covid is just not ideal. Our unit is now 8 beds and we are staffed for 12, so we will pretty much be staffing the new unstaffed Covid icu that took our place. Buuut the move has changed my trek up the stairs from 7 flights to 11 and I’m always looking for excuses to take the stairs. Leftovers for lunch. Black bean soup, avocado, and seitan for dinner. Another workday tomorrow. Protein: 135
1/8 Work 2/2 and now I’m off for 2. Since we are not in our normal unit I was having to run up and down to pharmacy a lot to get medicines that weren’t stocked and so I got plenty of stair action in today. I always close my move ring at work but rarely my exercise but the stairs have fixed that. Leftover black bean soup for lunch, broccoli dal with tofu for dinner. Protein: 148
1/9 must have tweaked my back turning patients or something yesterday cause I am hurting today. Skipped out on deadlifts and just did some rows, rowing, and step ups instead. Also skipped out on the NBA game tonight because of how bad the Covid numbers are around here.. didn’t seem like a responsible thing to do with the surge and how many staff at the hospital are already out sick. I got talked into going into work an extra day tomorrow to be the lead, so my days off are cut short. Leftovers for lunch. Lentil, sweet potato, spinach soup and seitan for dinner. Protein: 131

Hello round 174!
3rd round in a row (more before). Previous recent results -
R172 SW:104 EW:100.7 (⬇️3.3kg)
R173 SW:100.7 EW:101.4 (⬆️0.7kg)
R174 SW: 101.4 Goal: consistent <101. Go to gym twice (major problem as the gym is full of ppl these days even in generally down times)
01/07 - 100.2 🏋️♀️ (-1.2) I am not sure this happened. Was easy to keep it within calories yesterday but this can not be the result of a one time behaving. Epsecially not after the snacking in the few days before. But wil take it, need the encouragement right now.
01/08 - 100.1(-1.3) Finally empty at the gym yesterday. So went for a quick cardio + walking there and back which was refreshing at whooping -15 degrees. Still not sure why I didn't bounce but I will take it
01/09 - 100.0 (-1.4) Actually it was 99.95 but given the late weigh-in and the high chance for anomaly I didn't want to celebrate the milestone just yet.
01/10 - 100.0 (-1.4) Still rounding up. Trend line says <101 so if I don't mess this up till the end of the challenge I have at least a consistent <101 in place. Now need to see how I get to the gym with this Corona outbreak. Not easy to find low times and not sure if it is smart. But with the -18 and snow outside I don't have much alternatives.
01/11- 100.2 (-1.2) waiting for the wooosh. Yesterday was a snacking day so not surprising.

Round 174 (106th for me). I prove yet again round after round that I need this to help keep me on the straight and narrow.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!! But than I crept up again, so need to get back under 130. A healthy life style has to be a permanent way of life.SW: 138

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 138 – I need to take control again now. I have looked back over the last few years and this is a pattern, I don't do too bad over Christmas and then relax/go mad after New Year! So today is a new round and a new start, I need to get back at it & make each day count – easy to say, not so easy to execute!! 9.98 miles walked yesterday.
01/08 136.8 – thats better! Amazing what happens when I stick to plan, calories & macros well under & NO chocolate, not even a crumb; wouldn't even allow myself to enter the room where it is !!! Just need to stay consistent now for next 9 days. 10.21 miles walked yesterday.
01/09 137 – 9.07 miles walked yesterday. High carb day as Saturday is always pizza night in our house, but only 4 calories over & no chocolate. Today will be a challenge as we travel up to our DD to celebrate her birthday and I know birthday cake will be involved!! But I will keep it small.
01/10 137 – no walking or exercise yesterday, but a wonderful day with DD, DS & their families, good playing with little DGC. Not the best food choices ! Need to counteract today to try to prevent it showing on the scales tomorrow !
01/11 137 – 11.14 miles walked yesterday, good food choices, calories & all macros well in credit. My Fitbit is on it's way out - a few months ago the face cracked and now its only syncing & retaining a few activities. Luckily, it is counting my steps and mileage, but then not retaining it past midnight of that day, looks like I need to invest in a new one; I don't like change and see that the Charge HR is no longer available so it looks like I will be forced to have an updated model!

Day/Weight/Comment
1/7: 189 Eating was ok yesterday, but a bit higher calorie as I was finishing up some leftovers. Not much activity though.
1/8: 188.2 Food was pretty good but did have a couple drinks at the end of the day. Also still not getting much activity. Hopefully can work on that this weekend.
1/9: 188 Was hoping I’d have a bigger water weight whoosh at the beginning of this round, but it’s looking like I might already be in the slower moving phase. Oh well, I’m the only one responsible for where I’m at right now. Eating was alright yesterday, but still struggling on the activity front.
1/10: 188.8 Ugh no explanation for the uptick but hoping it’s just temporary. Made a yummy soup yesterday and got out to walk, despite the cold rain, to get over 9k steps.
1/11: 187.4 Was feeling munchy all day yesterday so was hard to stay on track. Did still manage to keep close to my calories though. Hoping for a good day today.

1/11 - 146.4 - Leftover wings (plain) and added steamable veggies for lunch. Plus a banana as "dessert". Dinner was homemade chicken & dumplings. BF successfully made the dumplings! Go him! Water on track, too. Workout was completed during that after lunch slump and worked well. I'm back working from home today due to high covid positive numbers within the company (it's worse than the first round when noone quite knew what to do) and my work this week is all meetings so why go in? Today is leftover chicken & dumplings for lunch and I'll make my stuffed pepper soup for dinner.

Previous Day's Comments1/07 - Body is still holding on to some bloat, but I'm still dropping which I'm happy about. Today is rest day. I also have 2 doc appointments (1 in person women's health, 1 virtual) and apparently we are looking at a house this afternoon. Dinner was corned beef and cabbage chowder which I have plenty of leftovers for today. Between appointments and all, I may stop by the store to grab something for dinner tonight I can make.
1/08 - Not quite enough water, ate out (looking at house took longer than expected and we stopped to check out a local place in the area we didn't know about. It's super adorable, 100% want to visit again), and TMI not quite there. Today is air fryer wings for lunch (I may have a couple plain wings but eat more of that corned beef cabbage chowder). Dinner will be either stuffed pepper soup or homemade chicken and dumplings, depending on how BF work goes (he makes the chicken&dumplings). Workout due today but he has full schedule so I have time to procrastinate. Woke up suuuuuper early for no reason and feeling it so giving myself grace when it comes to energy levels. It's a rainy dreary morning here and quite chilly. Definitely taking this as my lazy day to relax and maybe read more of my book. Unfortunately it's an e-book, but I've had to sacrifice my paper books for sake of space. This house we looked at has built in shelving for books and I LOVE it. My current mini-library is full of mixed media. Some books in a series are paper while others I've had to contend with electronic versions. Drives me batty! (And yes, for those books I love, I'm THAT girl who will buy the paper copy of it even though I already bought the e-book of it. I always wanted a library!) Plus, paper copies are just so much more intimate for me. Mom (who is an author and the reason I'm a book nerd) thinks I'm crazy and has no idea where I get so many particularities with books from. It's not her, so long as it's a book, she's happy, regardless of the medium. Dad's not a book person. I'm also the girl who will very carefully read a paperback as to not crease the spine. And holy moly, do not dog ear or bend pages or write in them, I will LOSE IT. Unless I get secondhand books, of course. Then it's character teehee. Wish I had a secondhand book store here.
1/09 - Interesting. I feel less bloated and lighter today. I was excited to see what the scale said and, surprise surprise! An increase. I'm not worried about it, I'm just happy FEELING lighter, but I was shocked. Dinner this weekend was switched. Work allows Fam and BF some opportunity to get together so we had dinner there last night (smothered pork chops with rice and collard greens) and today we will head over for wings. I've got to get a list together to shop for at least 2 dinners this week and lunch for me. We will have chicken & dumplings and stuffed pepper soup during the week, but need 2 more dinners. Think I'll make myself taco salad for the week and if it's not enough, I'll take dinner leftovers (I mainly need something for tomorrow since I won't have leftovers from Fam)
1/10 - Water back up to normal. Food wasn't the greatest, but not the worst (wings and fries with leftovers for today. Added in some veggies for lunch as well). Tired this morning, for the first time in my life (that I wasn't horribly sick) that I remember, I slept through my alarms. I was so exhausted apparently. My final alarm was the absolutely latest I could wake up and be on time. I spent less time getting ready and gave myself a few minutes to do ground work (pushups, planks) for today's Nerd Fitness workout. I have lunges and rows to knock out at work. Thinking of waiting until the after lunch slump to do those to get my body moving and blood flowing. Hopefully it will keep me from dozing or zoning out. Dinner tonight is chicken & dumplings, BF is attempting to make my dumplings since I'm not home to do it. Leftover will be tomorrow's lunch.

On another note:
We put an offer in on a house on Saturday (with 8 acres! And a greenhouse! And a shop for BF!) AND YESTERDAY THEY SAID THEY WERE ACCEPTING OUR OFFER!
We SHOULD get paperwork today from their side. Once signed and submitted, we pay escrow/option fee and get under contract. They're hoping to close as soon as possible (and we aren't against it). Need to get under contract, complete inspections, and then move forward with the financial side of it.
Closing date, according to current contract, is no later than March 4th. If it closes in March, we have to pay mortgage and rent for April/May before our lease here is up. If in February, we pay March/April/May. That will be tight, but doable, I think. Only good thing to closing early? Gives us enough time to paint/update the house to fit our needs prior to moving stuff in AND gives us time to move in and clean the rental house in hopes of getting our deposit back (though not holding breath because the same company that didn't want to deal with veterans in buying the other house? Yeah, they're our rental agency... I trust them to find reasons not to give us deposit. We aren't the only ones who have had issues with them, plenty of non-veteran people dislike them for being horrible and greedy.)
Fingers crossed this goes through! I'm going to go run through my budget AGAIN (I just did yesterday hehehehe)15 -

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.

Goal This Round 166.3
Day/Weight/Comment
(1/6) =169 Fiton Leg workout, 1 mile walk, under 1000 calories, no evening snacking, YaY!
1/7 = 166.8 FitOn arm workout, under 1200 calories, to cold and windy to do much put quilt. -37 air temp, not sure the wind chill.
1/8 = 167.2 Weather was a fright, blowing snow, zero visibility, I was suppose to get my son at the airport two hours away, after only traveling five miles and seeing two cars in the ditch, and snow drifts across both lanes of traffic, I turned around. He got picked him up and dropped him off at my daughters in town. So anyway some stress going on because I failed my task for the day. Ugh! Over indulged.
1/9 = 166.2 Shoveled, trying snowmobiling a path so I could do chores without sinking, got the snowmobile stuck twice, more shoveling. I don't really like to snowmobile, can't wait for the boys to come home and clean out the yard. Visited friends so a bit more indulging but better at managing it.
1/10 = 168,6 FitOn Arm workout, walked a mile inside. My snacking time is evening, I did break down and had one piece of peanut brittle. I hate to throw it out but I should, though it was not large and I used it as a crutch to not have a caloried beverage or other snacks.
1/11 = 167.2 FitOn Balance and Focus workout.

Goals: HIT.MY.STEP.GOAL!!! 10,000/day; <100 carbs/day; Pelo ride 2-3x/week; end the round lower than what I started it at.
1/7- 193.6 47 net carbs, Pelo ride done, and step goal achieved yesterday. Getting closer to my pre Christmas low!
1/8- 193.4 63 net carbs and almost made the step goal. It was a day spent in the kitchen decorating a cake, so a small loss is great considering.
1/9- 192.2 Only a pound away from my pre Christmas low! 63net carbs yesterday.
1/10-190.2 Well I’m not sure how that happened, but WOOHOO! I even had a beer with dinner last night, which I wasn’t sure how it would affect things. 72 net carbs and a Pelo ride in. Let’s make today great too!!
1/11- 189.8 NEW DECADE!! Even with pizza night and it’s extra carbs last night, I still dropped. I wound up resetting my calorie goal last weekend because the previous 1260/day was starting to take a mental toll. Now with an additional 200 calories a day, it’s much easier. Finished yesterday with 92 net carbs, step goal hit, and strength training done.

R174: I’m just totally unfocused. I plan and execute meals wonderfully then sabotage my good efforts with poor choices in snacks. So this round … no more salty snacks or ice cream after lunch & dinner. AND no more picking up a Snickers when I grocery shop. If I break these bad habits I know that my weight will go down.
🎯Mini Goal: <205 (Repeat until I hit it!)
Exercise Goal for this round: Strength class 4x per week. Walk the dog 100 miles in Jan!
Day/Weight/Previous Day’s Comment
1/7 208.9 2021 cal (-507), 119 net carbs. Strength Training 1 hr. No walk Wednesday. Drove (round trip 2 hrs) to son’s home to deliver something they needed and of course stayed to visit with my new granddaughter. Meals were okay but snacking is still bad … especially since I snuck in a snickers when grocery shopping which is a bad habit I need to break!
1/8 209.7 Walked 1.2 + 1.1 miles, Strength Training 1 hr, 1837 cal (-115), 137 net carbs, 1 glass wine. Really no explanation for the jump on the scale unless it is that I weighed in a couple of hours earlier … didn’t sleep. Snacking was reasonable. Wow yesterday just seemed to slip away from me … a little reading, too much computer time, dropped off old clothing to Women’s abuse shelter, groceries yet again and cooked double batch of jambalaya for family Sunday lunch.
1/9 211.6 No exercise. Drove (6 hr round trip) to New Braunfels for a day trip with DH which was fun attending the IPMS ModelFiesta show, shopping, lunch at GristMill in Gruene historic district on the Guadalupe River. Returning home stopped at my sisters for dinner which had tons of carbs (black beans & sausage w/ rice & cornbread). 2195 cal (-889), 215 net carbs, 1 beer at lunch + 1 wine at dinner.
1/10 210.9 Walked 2.5 miles, 1954 cal (-302), 202 net carbs, AF. All my kids got together to meet our new granddaughter today! Fun times. Jambalaya, salad, strawberries, pineapple and King Cake for lunch then just DH & I shared cheese & olives for dinner.
1/11 208.6 Walked .9 + .3 miles, Strength Training class 1 hr, 1874 cal (-251), 25 net carbs, 96oz water, AF. Grocery shopped AND followed my menu plan for the most part … switched out Wed & Mon menus but still I’m on point regarding the planning and executing. Now to get myself back into the green and not have negative red highlighted number under remaining calories! AND to get the scale going down consistently instead of these awful swings.

1/7- 200.4 (-.6) Ohhh! I thought today might be the day. I did swim yesterday, but it was after lunch and I felt so sluggish. I usually swim after a light breakfast. Still, despite the frigid weather, I did it and was really proud of myself. Fridays are usually the day I have my indulgence meal for the week. Lunch with a friend was cancelled so I may not. I haven’t decided yet. Just so close…
1/8- 200.2 (-.8) Argh! I stayed focused yesterday but was still disappointed. I will have my indulgence meal today, so this will bump up again before the next downward slide. Trusting the process.
1/9- 201.8 (+.8) I had my indulgence meal and enjoyed every bit of it. I’m back on track today and hope to be under 200# later this week.
1/10- 201.2 (+.2) Dropping back down after my indulgence meal. No organized exercise today. I did go to Orange Theory yesterday. Still thrilled with how strong I’m getting after swimming and hiking so much.
1/11- 201.2 (+.2) Expecting a whoosh soon. I’ll be swimming today and getting back into my art studio.

Oops—went a little nuts last night. The cold weather makes me crave fats & carbs! Back with a plan today. I just spent 20 min out throwing balls for Rory—it’s 7F (-14C) feels like -8 (-22). Bracing!
1/08 - 179.4, 178.6
Last minute dinner at friends’ place last night threw a big wrench in my tidy calorie plan. Fun, though! So hopefully back on track today. We got up late, so with late breakfast I may skip lunch, and dinner is planned. Now if I can get back to not snacking…. Off to brave the cold —Rory is full of beans and needs a good run.
1/09 - 179.2, 178.7
Time lag. Yesterday was barely over calorie goal, and today is planned. I’m making vegetarian mulligatawny soup for dinner—yummy. Enjoy your Sunday, everyone!
1/10 - 178.8, 178.7
Brrr. ❄️💨🌨 Otoh, the soup was really delish—DH went back for thirds! Everything restarts today—doggy school for Rory, a writing class I’m teaching—so I’m hoping that will leave less time to sit around and munch. 😁 I’ll miss dinner tonight for Rory’s class, so I’m making salmon patties and roasted sweet potatoes for lunch. That should hold me. Stay warm, those of you in the frigid zone!
1/11 - 178.4, 178.6
I think I’ll make Mondays & Tuesdays very low-cal days for the next 8 weeks—Rory has classes at dinner time Mon and lunch time Tues, so if I can just skip those meals…. I did fine last night. We’ll see how it goes.

Going for 2 pounds this round. It's been below freezing, snowy and dark and it's harder to get out for long walks, but I'm staying in the lower end of my calories range, so doable.
01/08: 193.4 lbs (+0.4)
I'm totally OK with a slight bump up. Yesterday was a semi-rest day. Back at it today!
01/09: 194.4 lbs (+1.0)
Ugh. Bad choices yesterday and severely lacked water. Not happy about posting this but I need to be accountable.
01/10: 194.8 lbs (+0.4)
Out of control. Gotta stop the free fall. Bad weekend, too much junk and not enough exercise.
01/11: 194.68 lbs (-0.2)
Well, right direction at least! Not throwing in the towel just yet.

Day/Weight/Comment
1/07: 148.6 - Had a few extra bites since I was hungry, but stayed within my calories. Aerobics workout and 3 mile walk.
1/08: 148.4 - I’ve been eating back about half of my exercise calories, but the scale seems to be reflecting maintenance. Perhaps my logging isn’t accurate. These last 15 pounds are tough.
1/09: 148.4 - Same ‘ole, same ‘ole. Good exercise, good eating, good sleep.
1/10: 147.3 - Same workout, same lunch and dinner, so-so sleep.
1/11: 147.7 - Good workout plus an extra walk and ate within calories.

Hi, I’m Karen and am in my 50’s.
OSW-187 Sept. 2018
GW-150
1/7-169-Rode the horse, walked 5 miles and quilted. Long day of work today, so I made a sensible lunch.
1/8-168-Another long day of work and I’ll take a good lunch. Walked with the horse yesterday so we both could get some steps in and he does not walk as fast as I do as we slog through the powdery dirt of the arena. We will try it again today before work.
1/9-169-Walked a mile with the horse, and got ready for work. I work in a quilt shop and I sew samples for the shop. While I was sitting and sewing, my hip got a terrible knot in it. Pretty soon, I was limping around the shop while helping customers. When I got home and told my husband about it, we figured out it was my sciatic nerve. I guess walking in the deep arena dirt/sand is a little too much.......🙄
1/10-DNW-Had been doing stretches and then went to chiropractor yesterday and feel 90% better.
1/11-168-Still not ready to do long power walk, but I have figured out to ride the horse lightly. Need to take MIL to Dr. then work a little.11 -

Day/Weight/Comment
01/07 208.6 Well not starting out well at all. Did do day # 7 on the workout video.
01/08 208.8 I gotta quit eating that darn bread. Positive thing today is that I did get in another workout #8.
01/09 207.6 No bread! Controlled snacks! Go in extra walking yesterday. It’s amazing what happens when you try.
01/10 206.6 Wow!! What?! I’ll take it. The scale was wonky this morning so it’s probably wrong but we will see tomorrow. The thought today is Discipline. I need to be disciplined in food choices, water and exercise. Got in more walking yesterday so will try that again today. Also did my workout this morning #10.
01/11 206.6 Yay, yesterday was not a fluke. Ate well and exercised. Today I’ve already got in #11 workout and it’s getting easier.

@CamandJarvis Congrats on the offer acceptance. The house sounds absolutely perfect. Are the commutes to work going to be pretty good? Sending out good vibes that all the paperwork and particulars will fall into place exactly the way you need them to. How exciting!
@Chalmation A new decade for you on the scale. Fantastic!5
