    Okay, so this was my weight from the docs office. I decided to post it because I didn't weight myself at home.

    Sorry everyone. This has been a tough week to eat healthy. Did loads of exercise and tried to stay around 2000 calories but the quality of food was not good. Today and tomorrow are my last days of staying with family then back to serious healthy eating by Monday ❤️

    I took it easy on Thursday to ensure my leg got some rest. It still felt a little off and I'm really looking forward to leg day for some reason.....I actually didn't mind this unscheduled rest day.

    Congrats on the loss! It is important to listen to our bodies.

    Crazy loss! My weight dropped 5 pounds overnight. Who knew a toothache was a weight loss tool. 😂 Once I start eating again I am sure it will jump up a bit. Still having pain and swelling so I may never get to eat properly again.

    Welcome to ONDERLAND!!!!

    Thank you. Hopefully, I can navigate not gaining weight once I start eating today.

    This just shows the difference between scales. Also, you probably weigh with less clothing than you have on at the doctor.

    Weigh In Day: Saturday
    PW (Previous Weight): 153.4 pounds (was down 3.9 pounds last week which blew me away)
    CW (Current Weight): 153.2 pounds (pleasantly surprised that I didn't have a gain this week after such a big loss last week)
    Lost 0.2 pounds since last Saturday.
    Down 16.9 pounds from my highest weigh in 2016.

    How is your mouth recovering after your dental visit?

    How is your mouth recovering after your dental visit?

    A loss is always pleasant. It’s getting better. I ate more yesterday than I had in almost a week.

    Last week was a weird week to see how I did. The scales were great but I ate very little because of the tooth pain. Exercise was terrible. I missed my step goal a few days. My focus this week is to get at least 2 pool days. My doctor suggested I pick an incentive to get me exercising. Anyone have any suggestions?

    Went out with my spouse for V Day dinner last night. We always go the weekend after to avoid set menus.

    Had penne arrabiata last night. Lol already had it logged on the app a couple days in advance. My gf commented "are you really trying to measure out two cups of pasta on your plate"

    Yes Tara. Yes I am. Haha!

    ** Huge shoutout to @lindamtuck2018 for surviving dental work without the liberation of ice cream, and for staying grounded when it comes to that funky number on the scale. You may not feel like you earned a win this week, but you're a warrior, and everyone should know it.

    Last week's weight gain was an anomaly so I did expect a sizable drop but still, this was reassuring.
