    @priiiiiska, Why would you walk on a treadmill without your Fitbit!!!! Just kidding....maybe there won't be a loss tomorrow, but next weigh-in for sure if you keep doing what you are doing!!!

    I think I am all caught up (except for the mini challenge results). Monday was a day from hell, (carb fest, really tired, hardly even acknowledged my husband, didn't get off my Big Butt at all), and I don't think I spent much time on MFP, either. Definitely not in the evening, at least. Yesterday was a good day, but I had to leave the house around 8:30 am for a car appointment an hour away. (We bought our car in my hometown.) While I was there I spent a long time visiting with my parents and having lunch with them. I didn't log my food, but I am pretty positive I was under, even with the alcoholic beverage I had with my very sensible salad!! I got in 52 active minutes according to Fitbit, of walking around downtown and along the river while I waited for my car to be finished. Today is good so far...the humidity has broken, so I went for a run/walk...it had been six days!

    It's wonderful that you were able to spend time with your parents and that you were mindful of your food/drink choices while still enjoying yourself. It's all about moderation. I'm guessing your parents were very happy that you bought a car from a dealership near their home!

    July week 3
    Last week weigh in : 174.1
    Today : 174.1

    Didn't lose anything but didn't gain either so that's kind of a win I guess.

    That is absolutely a win, considering the festive weekend you had!! No festivities this coming weekend, I am assuming, so buckle down and make the most of it!!!

    Weigh in day - Thursday
    Previous- 249.8
    Current- 248.5

    Was worried after last weekend that I may bounce back into the 250s, but I pulled out another loss. Down 27 lbs since Dec 28!!

    You must be thrilled! With each pound you lose you are officially making your time in the 250's a thing of the past!! Great week, Erik!!

    Thanks! I am. Next short term goal is under 245 in two weeks. I leave for vacation on that Thursday, so I’m looking to drop some more before I put on that vacation weight

    Been an odd week. Don't feel like I've ever really gotten a good handle on things this week and now it's on to the weekend. :oBut overall, I guess things are going pretty well minus the exercise.

    I'm sick and at the same time I'm starving. Dont know what's wrong with me. Ugh. Bad day. 300 cals over maintenance. Ugh. Hopefully I straighten out tomorrow.

    Last minute I couldnt handle being over maintenance so I jumped on the bike and did 25 minutes. Put me right under maintenance but at least I wasnt over.
