Thanks everybody! This whole gaining on the weekend thing is getting old!

But, in hindsight it was totally worth it. This is what we did on Sunday (that's Darcy and me in front, walking out of the water) and that's me in the lovely pink headband drinking a beer and about to dig in (AT LUNCHTIME, ugh) to my food. Of course, I also had dinner. At least I didn't have the giant breakfast they all had at our first stop on the jet ski trip. And this was about 2pm. But still...

BTW, we had a flood in our house and shed yesterday and my laptop got soaked due to a giant storm. So i'm running around mopping and cleaning up from that. Not being rude, just too busy and will catch up with everybody over the rest of the week!0

Your jawline looks amazing in this picture... I can see a HUGE difference in this picture!0

The jet skiing looks fun. Last year on memorial day, I rented a couple and got all the family together for the day at a local reserviour. We had a great time. That looks like a very nice place!0

Yeah, it's super fun. We have a whole big bay to play in. There are islands with beaches to swim at and wrecks to snorkel at and restaurants and bars and camping spots. It's like a whole new world has opened up for us... Just loving it. Lots of people do it year round, I'm not sure if I'm that keen though. We'll see...
We hadn't met any of the people we went out with on that ride before btw. The couple we usually go out with couldn't make it and we would have got lost for sure, so we joined a ride organised by the people on a Jetski FB page. Was awesome fun! Always cool to meet new people too...1 -
Wow looks like so much fun!!!

Looks like y'all had a BLAST! I'm too much of a chicken to jet ski or snorkel, but I love watching other people have fun in the water. Haha, I'm always the person that just lays on the beach, talking to the crabs.

I love the water and used to scuba dive a little. Sounds awesome!0 -
That looked like a super fun adventure! Sorry to hear about the flooding, I hope there wasn't too much damage.0

I'm just catching up, but it looks like you had such a great time last week

Nice pics you had there last week! 0.1 pounds is minuscule!
How the laptop?0 -
Quick update, I'm maintaining REALLY WELL! I don't really want to be maintaining, I want to be losing!! As usual the weekends are doing me in... It's super awesome too, that Trendweight figures I will hit goal by 2040! Nice...
So busy right now, will try to catch up with everybody's posts through the week...

Don't let that trend weight chart discourage you, you can do it!0
-
I hear you on the struggle of feeling more like you're maintaining than losing. But, we shouldn't get discouraged! We've got this! 0
-
LMFAO my trend chart says 2028 so I feel your pain!!! At least you're maintaining with ease, that way when you hit maintenance you know it'll be a breeze 0
-
I think your doing great by monitoring things. You can now make a plan. I've maintained for a long time last year and then I finally got busy again. Sometimes that is the way it is. One thing though, it is MUCH, MUCH, MUCH easier to start with a maintained weight than with a 10-lbs or more gain! Maintenance is great and you will be able to get lower. Good luck!0

Yes, I am definitely not "busy" with the weight loss thing right now. I agree, MUCH easier to start again when you've not gained (well, other than the couple of lbs over xmas). I think I just have too much going on right now. I have a big deadline at the end of the month and then friends from Canada coming to visit so I'm trying to sort out an itinerary for when they are here etc. etc. etc.
Plus we seem to be going out every single weekend right now, and even though I'm doing OMAD almost every single day, I'm definitely not doing ODAD (one drink a day!) and both Friday and Saturday nights lately have involved a fair number of calories in booze and mixers.
At least I know I can maintain without much problem and still hang out with friends and not be deprived!
Maybe the winter is better for me for losing, summer is just too activity filled... Not that I'm not going to keep trying. We're going up to the Great Barrier Reef to go snorkelling with my friends from Canada at Easter and it sure would be nice to be a few pounds lighter. Then in May we are going to Germany (for work, but will be adding a week to the end of that to go somewhere) and again, it would be nice to be a few pounds lighter for that! 0 -
BTW, I have to apologise for not reading anybody's updates lately, I'm just SO BUSY with work and life stuff.... I will catch up at some point when I get a break in the craziness...0
-
By the looks of your chart I'm sure you will have no problem maintaining Enjoy your summer! 0
-
Haha, I feel like I could probably benefit from adding ODAD to my own mix. I feel like my eating is always pretty mild, but I love my two or three glasses of wine with dinner, LOL. 0

Super quick update, I worked 70 hours last week and the next two weeks are going to be the same. Can't wait to hit this deadline and take a vacation!
Still maintaining and not losing. Well, Trendweight says I'm losing, but at a glacial rate!! Though at least it says I will hit goal in this decade which is a nice change.

Yup, it's my downfall for sure!0 -

Thanks, I am certainly trying to enjoy! 0 -
Maintenance is good! Losing is better but maintenance is not bad!0
-
You're almost down a pound from last Wednesday so that's good 0
-
You've been steadily losing since last Monday, so you're doing well!0
-
70 hours!? My goodness! You are a trooper! But good job on still heading downward. Maintaining is better than gaining, I think!
