    Question: I weighed in Sunday morning for my starting weight. Can I weight in Sunday morning again ?

    Sorry for the late post! Work is really taking a toll on me. I'm very short staffed and have been working 70-80 hours a week for the past 3 weeks. The gym and I are now strangers.

    Your weigh-in day is Saturday, which is the last day of week #1. If you wait until Sunday, you will have missed your week #1 weigh-in. Is there a reason you can't weigh-in on Saturday?

    Tracking- yes
    Calories- over a lot
    Exercise- yes (1 mile walk)

    Made the bad decision to splurge on calories during vacation. I have to get back in the groove of healthy eating. I tell you it’s hard even though I have been exercising and haven’t gain this past week it’s important to watch my nutrition. Trying to stay focus :(

    Tracked: yes

    Under calories: no 😭 I was way over today. Skipped breakfast and didn’t eat something until 1pm and of course by then I just wanted to eat everything in sight.

    Exercise: no. I really wanted to do more tae bo tonight, but it’s been a busy and stressful day. Tomorrow is weigh in day and I’m just hoping the damage of today won’t be to bad 😭😭😭

    Live and learn about skipping breakfast! Sorry about the stressful day; fingers crossed for your weigh-in!

    Weigh in day: Friday
    Previous Week's weight: 213.25
    Todays Weight: 212.50

    Loss this week 0.75lbs; slowly slowly as they say I guess :/

    6 weeks today I will be at the airport woo hoo!! @HASWLRS I am flying from Manchester, UK to Orlando, US (Sorry I only saw your comment after July thread has closed so couldn't reply)

    SW 298.50
    GW 180.00
    Loss to date 86.00lbs

    Slowly, yes, but it is going in the right direction!!! I am assuming you will be visiting Disney World while you are in Orlando? Have you visited the States before? What a great vacation to plan for and look forward to, and a great motivator to keep losing weight!!

    Tracking exercise
    Mowed the lawn with a self propelled push mower. Takes an hour to do my yard. My neighbors use riding mowers. Glad I do not use a rider. Did an aerobics class for 40 minutes.

    Calories: tracked and under. Much better day.
    Exercise: spent an hour weedeating my parents yard for them. What a work out! Holding that thing up is better than strength training. Lol also 30 mins biking this evening.

    Sounds like a couple of great yard maintenance workouts!!!

    So, so sorry to hear that work is taking a toll on you personally! Those are very long work weeks! Is there any light at the end of the tunnel? I know you love going to the gym, but since there is no time right now, you'll just have to try to reach your calorie deficit with food. Yes, it will require some planning and some will power, but it can be done! Even if you aim for maintenance! I'd hate to see all your hard work go quickly down the drain because of this work situation. (hugs)

    Moving is very good exercise! Were you over by much on your calories?
