    High everyone,
    I'm new to the daily check-in. I've been with my fitness off and on for the past year. I started out at 219 lbs and lost 17 lbs so far. My ultimate goal is to get to 150 lbs again, but I've been giving up a lot when I don't see a weight loss for a few weeks. I need to stop doing that though, so I decided to join in to some groups on here for extra support. I happy to be here and look forward to seeing some pounds go away.

    Went on vacation and had no internet access. Was terrified that when I returned I would have maxed out my daily food diary. Actually went under several days. Got lots of exercise.
    Now that I'm back I'm having a terrible time getting back to the groove. My food intake has not been acceptable (to me) and I can't seem to get myself back into an exercise regiment/gym/pool.
    Ugh! Why am I having a difficult time? I expected to come back and have lost another 5lbs (or at least close)

    Hello Everyone. I want to try to do this again. It was too hard with 2 jobs and we had a lot of issues this summer. Still have 2 jobs but one is a bit light right now. I really need to get more exercise and stay on track. One issue was a knee injury which is related to worsening Arthritis. I have not have any problems with it until this summer. Probably damaged my meniscus doing a dance move but they say it is because of the arthritis. So health is as important as making a living. I am going to spend a minute seeing how you all are doing.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? Yes
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? had just a little bit of ice cream
    What would I have done differently? gotten to Aquafit but needed to go to the Orthopedist
    What is today's personal goals? making Tortilla soup and getting to the gym to make up for last night
    Mood today? determined
