    After spending the start of last week sick and snowed in, and then ending it with 3 12 hour shifts in a row, there was no exercise for me last week. BUT...today I was able to get a 3.5 mile walk in this afternoon. Snowed in tomorrow with the kids so we’ll have a dance party at some point and I will work out with them...I know my weigh in day is tomorrow but I am dreading it as I fell off the meal plan and tracking wagon last week...ugh

    Was hoping for more, but that's just the way it goes sometimes. At least I managed to stick to healthy eating throughout my cold.

    Well done to last week's winners!! :)

    Good morning Ladies.
    I have had a horrendous weekend both personally and dieting and haven't logged for 2 days.
    I'm kinda back in a good place now.

    @BonnieHosk85 I am supposed to be weighing in this morning but I forgot to get the scales from my mom so I will do it tomorrow xx

    My dad brought the scales round when he picked husband up for work.

    Not happy, don't think I deserve a gain this week, let alone over a lb. I've exercised 3 times since my last weigh in and haven't gone over calories, albeit eating back exercise calories sometimes. Maintenance I would have accepted. Hopefully I can make up for it next week. I know how much I can fluctuate for all sorts of reasons!

    Hang in there hun. Sometimes it takes a week of catch up and i bet you'll see that loss this week. Just stay consistent and you will see. Gains are always disappointing but you got this x

    Would have been another 1lb on top of that but i drank my weight in Vodka Saturday night for a long overdue night out (I'm a new mummy) BUT i ordered sea bass and spinach for dinner while we were out. So i got the food thing down this weekend but the water weight from the drinking meant i didn't lose as much as my scales said i had on Saturday morning (before the night out). Either way i'm happy with the loss and have found my magic calorie number for the weight loss.

    Munchies this week got me down. Also, wtf with my scale? Last night before bed it said 165-something, this morning at my usual weigh-in time it said 168-something, and just now in mid-afternoon, post lunch, it said 162.2. I think that's closer to right so it's what I'm counting, but goodness!

    @Kimmie_H81 thanks, I know it works out in the end with steady progress, and I am realistic about my fluctuations but you know those times when it just doesn't add up are so frustrating! Sounds like @LesIckaBod is having similar fun!

    @LeslckaBod

    I feel your pain, don't let the scale get to you. Try real hard to only weigh one time a week. It's a really struggle for me too not to weigh in more than 1 time. What helped me with the scale is to use a 10 pound weight. I would get on the scale without the 10 pound weight, then I would get back on with the 10 pound weight and see if I gained 10 pounds. It really help me understand my scale. Most times it does jump up 10 pounds exactly.

    Sorry for the gain. I hate a lot of family events this weekend and I have not quite figured out how to control my cravings when out at restaurants or family events. I will be working on this! I plan to make up for this next weigh in and finish strong!

    One thing that works for me when at a family gathering is to offer to bring a snack or appetizer that I know I can eat. So there is an option for me. When eating out I always look at the menu ahead of time to see my options. That way if I need to make changes to the menu I already have it figured out. Then there isn't much attention brought to myself. They usually are happy to make the changes.

    Beautiful spring day today. I'm so lucky to be able to take a lunchtime run over Tower Bridge, although all the tourists made it tricky!
