    CHALLENGE ENDING WEIGHT:
    CHALLENGE TOTAL WEIGHT LOSS GOAL: Total Loss of 15 pounds to land at 179.8 (seems Impossible, even Laughable but a girl can dream right?)


    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

    03/28-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I am heading north today to get my tax package to my accountant that moved quite far. I have not been able to take water pill due to bp drops as well as all this travel. All the more reason I am not weighing as I am bloating bigger. I have massaged my ankles and abdomen this morning in the hopes that it will help. Yet more restaurants today too along with lots of sitting. I am not allowed to exercise right now until they figure out my bp problems anyway so I suppose it’s okay. Hopefully the cardiologist will get back with me sometime today on the bp numbers I dropped off yesterday.


    03/31-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I guess April will have to be a re-do of March for me due to my medical issues. But I’m not giving up! Moving forward. Finally no travel today. Sticking to plan, babysitting DGS and pre-logging food for the day. Staying hopeful.



    Mar Goal: 186.6

    04/01-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- I woke up today in quite a depressed state. I am bothered that my normal routine has been so very disrupted. I realized I have not even gotten dressed since Thur morn when I had to travel. I am still bloated and am quite sure I have put on a few pounds while going through all of this medical drama. Even with the medication change, my bp was down way too low again yesterday and I couldn’t get any fitness in because of it. Food is not the answer and does not solve the problems! I ate things I shouldn’t have mixed in with good pre-planned choices but the in-betweens threw me out of plan. I am a mess. I will work on myself today though it is babysitting day again. That will not leave much time for me but I’ll do my best. Tomorrow (Sunday) is a rare free day this week. No babysitting and no drs appointments. Tomorrow I can really focus. I’ll be back to travel on Monday. In the meantime, I am logging my food and going to youtube to find some positive affirmations that I can listen to (and repeat). I really need them today. I am re-doing March goal in April due to all the medical issues, thus my starting weight and April goal.

    04/04-DNW-(Trend Weight: DNW)- Oh my Goodness, I wanted to weigh so badly today! But then, why would I weight the day after travel when the restaurant food usually adds 2-3 extra pounds to the scale? So I am drinking lots of water to offset the high sodium meal, hoping for a TMI to rid myself of the evidence and going to try to close all my fitbit circles today while carefully watching the bp. Fasting glucose this morning was pretty good so that is a good sign of the times I hope. Enjoy your day everyone!
