    I thought about going a bit more conservative in my goal-setting this month, but I need to give myself something to strive for. Best of luck to us all!

    Hey everyone i'm back. I didn't get around to weighing myself this past weekend so i'm not sure how I ended last month or started this month. I imaging I might have gained a bit but hopefully not to much.
    A friend of mine lost her husband very suddenly. He was diagnosed with stage five cancer and died three days later. With all this stress and emotion it's been really hard to not stress eat. But I don't think i've been as bad I originally thought. I guess we'll see tomorrow. I'll update my numbers then. Just wanted to tell all of y'all i'm thankful to be part of this community. <3

    Woo hoo. With all that emotional eating I did last week I only gained .2 lbs from the last time I weighted. I guess I was subconsciously counting calories! :D

    It's been a weird month for me, just trying to keep on keeping on. I weighed this morning to jump back in but am limited in my workouts this month as I get weekly injections in both knees.

    2nd round of knee injections (both sides) is tomorrow, with 2 days of mandatory rest. I'm hoping to get a swim in tonight and maybe even tomorrow morning before the next round, because it's back to being pool-grounded after. Keep up the hard work everyone!

    Tiny losses and not gaining are a WIN in my book. It's a marathon, not a sprint, keep it up!

    I can blame it on TOM or I can accept that I haven't been great with my food intake. At least I'm logging it here today. Hopefully I'll at least balance things out by the end of the month. I have a doctor's appointment with WL doc next week to go over my iDEXA scan and progress this year.

    I didn't make my goal but at least I ended up down overall. I'm struggling with willpower too. I know I catch myself eating to eat as opposed to needing fuel. It's a lifetime struggle. I see the WL doctor today and will go over my iDXA results. Pidge, I feel your pain, but any loss is worth celebrating, IMHO! Where did everyone go?
