    I have a wedding to attend this afternoon & then I am back to tracking. Just saw my primary care Thursday & I have regained 20 pounds this past six months. My focus will be tracking, not eating in the car, and at least 20 minutes on the treadmill daily. Please pray for me 😭 Thank you!

    As you know, I’ve been on a very long slide. Your encouragement gives me hope, so now I want to encourage you. You’re such a consistent tracker & exerciser and that really inspires me to keep trying. Sometimes we do go over on our calories (which is why I mightily resist tracking), but you don’t give up. Thank you for being an amazing leader of this group! I pray you are having a great weekend! 🙌🏻❤️🙏🏻😊

    Hello TBBT.... I am hoping November can be a turn around of this climb I am on. The last quarter of every year is always busy with tons of celebrating and I always seem to lose my focus. Add in those pesky midlife hormones and some stresses (not normal life stresses) and this girl is fighting a mental game that I can't afford to lose because that translates to gains and a downward spiral of my achievements. Why is -2 so hard to achieve but a +5 is an easy overnight (non) achievement?

    Overall I have had highs and lows as my journey started last October but Nov 1 was first day of conscious awareness of what went in my mouth. So in that regard, I am and have kept 16 lbs off in this year.. but can't let myself celebrate because at some point over this year I WAS down 33 lbs.

    All I can do is refocus (again 😔) and strive to build upon my achievements and not let my mental game mess me up.

    New month weigh in...

    I had the most amazing thing happen to me Saturday night. I went to trivia night at my school with some former colleagues at my previous school who happen to also be alums like me (I teach at my alma mater). They said I looked fantastic! It was the first time anyone has noticed my weight loss. It made me feel so good that it gave me strength not to eat the sweets at the table. I brought a veggie tray and munched on that all night and was perfectly satisfied! ❤️
