I haven't weigh in today but this is the last weigh in I did and it was with all my clothes on. It's been a surreal week because of close personal tragedy and I haven't eaten properly. I'm doing the best I can to get back to normal (hence posting) but my stomach isn't really having it.1 -

Still insanely busy with work, school and wedding planning. I am feeling MUCH better this week after allowing myself to eat whatever I wanted and sleep as long as i wanted with 0 exercise over the weekend. I think i needed to just crash and take care of me. It turns out I have a wicked ear piercing infection, and some sort of problem going on with my eyes, so my fiancé is suddenly dealing with a partially blind partially deaf lady, but I know we'll get through!
Does anyone have a food suggestion for probiotics? I have had a yogurt cup almost every single day now for 5 months as part of my diet so now that I am required to have one a day to offset the antibiotics I am almost gagging when I eat them! Please let me know if y'all think of anything!
A thousand hug/high five combos to @2tall4thisworld for getting down to the 150's that is such a great breakthrough! Also, I love your poison Ivy Costume idea - that is what I did for the past 2 halloweens and it was so much fun! I found it to be a very empowering outfit haha.
My cheers and support to all on their journeys!1 -
@RMC1995 Actimel drinks, but the 0% fat ones because the normal ones are so disgustingly sweet I just can't with them. Ugh.1
-
@glassofroses This is going to sound dumb, but I have never even heard of that before! Is this a powder or something that you add to water like those fiber drinks? Can I buy these drinks in most grocery stores do you think? Or should I look for it at a healthy eating place like Whole Foods or an Organic shop? I live in New York State in the US if that makes a difference.0

@RMC1995 Try Kefir https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kefir
@glassofroses I'm sorry to hear you've had a personal tragedy to deal with. Good vibes coming your way.0 -
@RMC1995 You should be able to get them in the milk aisle in the supermarket, in the States they're called DanActive, I think. They come in packs of 4 or 8, they're basically a yoghurt drink like Yakult if you've ever seen that.0
-
@rianneonamission I haven't had Kefir since I was a kid! Honestly sort of forget it existed. I know my super market has it so I guess I should pick some up!
@glassofroses DanActive sounds familiar, although I don't know Yakult. Thank you for the suggestion - I'll check it out on my next grocery visit!1 -
@rianneonamission Thanks, hon. It sucks balls, but it was as peaceful as it could have ever been and it ended a lot of suffering.0
-
Oh no, your dad? I'm so very sorry. Even if it was peaceful and ended a lot of suffering it doesn't make it any easier. Be kind to yourself1
-
@rianneonamission Yeah, it was my dad. It doesn't feel real yet so I'm just trying to be as normal and as kind to myself as possible, like you say. If I don't want to eat, I try for something even if I don't finish it all but I don't berate myself if I don't. I made myself walk to the doctor's today to tell them he had passed rather than just calling them so I haven't just curled up in a ball. The funeral won't be for a couple of weeks which I'm grateful for in a way because I know I'm going to be a lot worse when all the sorting is done and all that's left is him being gone.
Sorry everyone for the serious talk. I'm an oversharer by nature. Plus if one person talking about grief helps another or gets someone to open up about their own hurt to ease it then I'm all for it.0 -
Don't be sorry. Plenty of us have overshared on these threads, and I highly doubt anyone minds.
@2tall4thisworld Congrats on hitting the 150s! You are doing fabulously!
In addition to my check in yesterday, I am pleased to confirm that my thoughts were right, and it was all water weight:
18th Oct: 163.4lbs - Body fat 26.1%
25th Oct: 164lbs - Body fat 26.3%
26th Oct: 162.6lbs - Body fat 26.0%1 -
Hi ladies, I have not been doing so well with logging, tracking, eating properly the last couple of weeks, the scales are reflecting this, this is my 3rd week with a gain we've had my parents living with us for nearly 2 weeks now, and I can't exercise properly as my conservatory has been taken over with their stuff, I'm not planning my meals properly, tonight for example is going to be an M&S meal. They are going to be with us for another week I think, so until then, I'm just going to have to try and be good when I'm at work, although my work planning has gone out the window too
You girls are all doing so amazing, well done @2tall4thisworld for getting into the 150's
@glassofroses I'm so sorry for your loss, big hugs to you
Hope everyone enjoys their weekends

Struggles: massive struggle this week. It seems I did injure my IT band. I am gutted. I tried running yesterday and could barely manage 3 miles. I was under 110 lbs which is not a good look on me. My 1/2 marathon is next week and I don’t know if I will be ready. All of this work to fail before the race even starts is devastating.
Successes: I am rehabbing and found a bunch of excercises for this.
Upcoming week plan: I will run the 5k zombie mud run tomorrow with my friends. It’s 5k with 50 obstacles so not a straight run. Feeling my body after this will help me decide what to do about the 1/2.
@glassofroses I am so sorry for your loss. I have no words. My heart goes out to you. Yes, take care of yourself. I am sending you hugs from afar.0 -

Trying not to let these big jumps freak me out. As long as they don't continue every week, I should be OK. Third time around, I'd like to think I know what I'm doing
So very sorry for your loss @glassofroses, hugs0 -
@mrssunshine78 I'm so sorry you've been struggling so much with your meal planning and subsequent gains! I know how hard it can be to fall out of practice with your lifestyle changes. I suggest continuing to do your best at work and staying motivated. Everyone here is rooting for you and I'm sure you'll manage to get your feet back under you soon!
@bringbackthejoy Ouch! I really hope you are able to rehab well and are ready to compete in your 1/2 marathon next week, I know you've been training for it or ages. Either way, listen to and respect your body - better to wait for another marathon to come along that to seriously injure yourself!
Lots of love to everyone!1 -

I'm happy I finally reached my goal on Saturday, although to be honest with you when I weighed myself this morning (10/30) I was back up to 123lbs, so maybe next week's weigh in will give me a clear-er picture. Either way, I am happy to start eating at maintenance!
