    Arrrgh, I have upped my steps, upped my exercise minutes, watched my carbs (mostly, okay we had pizza on Thursday) but really this shouldn’t be happening. We go on vacation next week and I’m not going to worry about food. I figure walking will take care of itself. But bottom line is I expect a gain if nothing more than water weight from more high sodium foods.

    Hit a lull this week. I'm so ready to be done. I just want to get to Maintenance. Blah. 41 more pounds. I'll get there. I just wish "there" was next week and not 3-4 more months.

    OK I'm not happy but I did eat pizza and sticky toffee pudding on my birthday. So next week hopefully back in the 140s.

    Doing check in from our hotel in El Paso- the architecture downtown is so cool! Had some great tacos and saw a really fun comedy show (John Mulaney). A good day. Headed back home to Santa Fe in the morning!

    Ok, last week was a bad week on the scales, exercise and sleep. Hurting my back on Wednesday didn’t help. Still very uncomfortable to walk so I am putting the pool off for another day.

    Restaurant food is high in sodium so I think you are right. Water weight will drop next week. Sounds like you had a great time.

    Good Morning DOWNSIZERS Friends. Sitting sucking down a cup Joe and listening to a Daily Mix Old School Rock and Roll. Chicago, Doobie Bros, Mr. Slow Hand himself Eric Clapton etc. Thanks to Spotify for making up Daily mixes for me so I just have to point and click what I want to listen to. Recently I have been not been as active as some of you and I am planning to change that in the futrue. As some of you (those that are on MFP) I have been flirting with my Kidneys and Liver trying to shut down on me. We do have that back under control and the Doc's are Happy with the way I am responding to the treatments. Looking forward to being more active on here. HAVE A BODACIOUS DAY.
