    Hello friends! 🌸🌻 Happy August.

    This month I hope to continue with my small goals of consistency and self-care.

    August 1: 224.2 Yesterday was logged and I’m ready to go today!

    August 2: 223.6 logged and done! Yesterday I moved sales offices and today is the first weekend of our VIP sales event. So ready for this… as ready as you can be in new construction homes! Prelogged for the day and MUST STAY HYDRATED!

    August 3: 223.2. Logged and done. Feeling good. Tired after yesterday, but ready for more appointments. Glad I’m taking care of myself first and making myself a priority.

    August 4: 224.2… Logging is done and dusted! Our VIP weekend was a success. Need to catch up on paperwork this morning but not before I check in with you all! Reading everyone’s posts first, getting my ducks in a row, then back to work.

    August 5: 225.4… logged and done… overate dinner and tried to work it off by cutting the grass… obviously didn’t work. As @deepwoodslady has said before.. you can’t out walk a bad diet.

    @jm216 you’ve had a stressful week and it can definitely impact you. But imagine if you hadn’t cut the grass! Any movement is better than no movement. You got this!!

    @deepwoodslady you should absolutely pat yourself on the back!! Having the desire/willpower to eat healthy while those around you aren’t can be one of the most difficult things, but you did it…and look how great you felt! Remember it’s not a diet, but a lifestyle! You have been making slow but steady progress and that’s what it’s all about. Especially these last 2 months! You said your August goal was 184.8, and you are already at 186.6. Just a couple months ago you were over 190 and excited to enter 180’s….. be proud of your accomplishments and keep up the amazing work!!

    My name is Donna. I am 5’ 5” tall, 65 years old and from Michigan USA. In 2016 I weighed 253 lbs. I am on a journey of health and to get back to the real me.

    This Challenge Starting Weight (from July 31): 188.8

    Goal: (Four lb Loss) 184.8

    Actual Ending Weight: xxxxx

    Total Lost/Gained this month: xxxxx

    πŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œπŸ”œFinal goal: 145-155. I’ll know when I get there.

    **********ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE DECISION AT A TIME********

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

    FIRST HALF OF THE MONTH:

    08/01-187.6 βœ… (Trend Weight: 188.0)

    08/02-186.4 βœ… (Trend Weight: 187.9)

    08/03-187.0 ❌ (Trend Weight – 187.8)

    08/04-186.6 βœ… (Trend Weight: 187.7) I am patting myself on the back a bit for how well I did yesterday, even with everyone here. While they ate pizza, cookies and other snacks washed down with sodas, I ate avocado toast and sipped on chicken broth. It was a strong day and came pretty easy to me. Not all days are that easy unfortunately. I was hoping scale would be down a bit more as I also managed to get some exercise bike in after everyone left last night. But I’m happy for any progress. I still haven’t got all the weight off from my one lousy day of travel. My how slow it drops!

    βš“οΈβš“οΈβš“οΈβš“οΈβš“οΈ 08/05-185.8 βœ… (Trend Weight: 187.5) I did a bit of an experiment yesterday. I ate my largest meal for lunch and a smaller dinner since I usually have snacks later anyway. It seemed like a good idea at the time but it backfired since I stay up pretty late at night in my retirement. I won’t make that mistake again. I ended up eating an extra small meal which was better than bingeing on snack after snack (my usual choice). Two slices of peanut butter toast later (low calorie/carb bread) and a large glass of water (oh how I wanted the milk!) and I was okay. It managed to stay within macros by skipping some snacks. Still a drop on the scale today as I spent lots of time yesterday on yard work and gardening but I did skip my intentional exercise. I’m still chasing that low of 185.0 I had recently before some weird fluctuations and my day trip which together yielded me a 3.8 lb gain. I don’t know how long this will take, but I will just keep on chasing it until it runs out of breath!

    Logged. Marcos could have been better falling short on protein again. I had breakfast, but missed lunch due to meetings that ran long and I met a friend for dinner while watching an outdoor movie, so food choices were limited.

The Philly cheesesteak was okay and fit into my macros but the ice cream was ridiculous. I didn’t know it would be that large! (ice cream tacos). Had to share with son and still too much. MUCH too much. I was hundreds over on calories, double the allowed carbs. Not enough protein, fats or fiber. Not a good choice but the scale is down today. Either it will show up later or the exercise helped even though the MFP nightly chart still shows me over after the exercise bike session. I’m hoping Lady Luck is on my side for this one. Down 0.2 today so I’ll take it with gratitude!

    Hello friends! 🌸🌻 Happy August.

    This month I hope to continue with my small goals of consistency and self-care.

    August 1: 224.2 Yesterday was logged and I’m ready to go today!

    August 2: 223.6 logged and done! Yesterday I moved sales offices and today is the first weekend of our VIP sales event. So ready for this… as ready as you can be in new construction homes! Prelogged for the day and MUST STAY HYDRATED!

    August 3: 223.2. Logged and done. Feeling good. Tired after yesterday, but ready for more appointments. Glad I’m taking care of myself first and making myself a priority.

    August 4: 224.2… Logging is done and dusted! Our VIP weekend was a success. Need to catch up on paperwork this morning but not before I check in with you all! Reading everyone’s posts first, getting my ducks in a row, then back to work.

    August 5: 225.4… logged and done… overate dinner and tried to work it off by cutting the grass… obviously didn’t work. AsΒ @deepwoodsladyΒ has said before.. you can’t out walk a bad diet.

    August 6: 224.2 logged and done… feeling good. Spend a nice evening with my hubby and felt more relaxed. Loving the logging everything in the morning plan then making adjustments for dinner. Plus I’m using the Finch app for wellness… it’s free and helpful for squirrel minds like mine.Β 

    August 7: 224.8 logged and done. Time to go weed whip after dragging my feet all day. Time to push through.
