    I love daily check-ins. My mom was visiting for the past three weeks and I admit I fell off the wagon. Gained a few pounds but am hoping it is mostly water weight. We'll see in a few more days. I was doing Herbal Life but admit I get so darn hungry having nothing but the shakes during the day with a few snacks. I end up eating too much at night then. Today I started out with a big healthy breakfast and we'll see if that makes me feel better.

    Thanks Goldk for starting a new Fall thread. I have been MIA on MFP ... but trying to get back on track starting TODAY!

    No problem! We can do this! I went to my doctor the other day... I started talking to him and he said "that is just an excuse". Sort of a wake up moment for me. Told me to work out 5 days and week and cut the carbs down. I like that fact that he was so blunt! LOL

    Thanks for getting me back here again Goldk! I'm so glad your biopsy wasn't cancer, hopefully you won't be affected by the side-effects of the steroid they put you on ... they have to list lots of possible side-effects but that doesn't mean you will necessarily have them - hopefully not!

    I'm working at 5-6 day a week workouts, and less carbs too. I can do ok for a few days, but have a hard time stringing a good week together, and I'd really like to do well for a whole month and see what happens on the scale!

    Still not fully back into the groove after being out of town.

    Did go to Aerobics class on Thursday evening. And, today did back exercises including 40 crunches & planks, too. Also, did push-ups.

    Now, if I can just get the dieting back under control... and water increased.

    Linda

    Check in on good and bad days!! We are all going through the same thing. :bigsmile: Some days are definitely easier than others!
