    Wednesday 5th

    Track: yes
    Calories: Yes under
    Exercise: no, I’ve been immobile injury. Completely frustrated.
    I’ve been building up to 5km runs but this week have had to stick to light 2km jogs because of an injury. I didn’t even do yoga yesterday. Feeling frustrated this week. My weight is maintaining though which doesn’t feel like a win. My goal was to lose 1KG at least this week and had I been exercising as I wanted I would have... I need to rest off this injury.... I’m going to speak to the Dr today and see if there something I can do maybe strength training or some other. I’m not a crier but I could honestly cry right now! I just want to be back to normal

    Thursday April 4
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: No
    Goals or Day: Scale finally went down (1 lb!). I have a healthywage bet coming up in August, so I'm hoping I meet my goal for that. I'm about 0.5 lbs away from losing 20 lbs and being under 230lbs (it's been about a year since I've been under 230), so I'm hoping to hit that milestone in the next day or two.

    Thursday
    Pw: 183
    Cw: 181.4

    Was down a bit farther than that yesterday but had a bigger dinner than planned with lots of sodium so I’m just happy that today still shows a good loss.

    Just need to find some balance on my trip this week to not completely ruin my progress. And as always it’s a marathon not sprint, need to keep that reminder when I wish things were moving more quickly.

    Wow! It’s Thursday. I read some Wednesday posts briefly. And will attempt to catch-up today quickly. All is going well here on my end. I am on a two-night streak of not binging after dinner… whooop! Whooop!

    @tgale - Tracy- Hope you got some rest. I can relate to the wanting to eat to stay awake after being so tired. I used to work cherries and those few weeks of very long days were exhausting. Bad habits developed. Except for one season. I packed some of my NO Bake Fake Protein bars and hard boiled eggs. I would reach for one of those every 2 hours and not feel guilty and I managed to stay closer to on track than I did any other seasons. I also had salad stuff in the fridge and bought rotisserie chickens. Anyhooo…. Hope you’re feeling better today.

    @ChattyCrafty - Are you a planner at all? What worked for you at the end of 2018? What can we do to help? Nice mile walk… yeah!! And I can tell when I don’t drink enough water, I’m hungrier at night. Keep hydrating. And keep posting! :)

    @LilyGrace - I weigh myself every day, but it’s more of a daily reminder to be a reality check to say “Hey! You’re in charge of your life and this number doesn’t define you, but it matters to stay focused.” I don’t officially count it or take it to heart until my weigh-in day. And I would LOVE for it to not move in four days. I’m up/down every day. So hugs to you. Keep tracking and find a fun exercise to do to take your mind off it. AND.. it moved!! I look forward to being in the 230# again by summer or fall at the latest. My bones are aching!

    @jwall309 - How did your dinner go last night? Do you look at menu’s online before going? That helps me, alot! Then I save a good one in MFP, then I have a go-to w/o having to look at the menu if I go again. And a loss a nice loss to start out in April. Yeah you! And keep sprinting.

    @toyota100 - Awesome! Being mindful and engaged is so important. You’re doing it. 3 days of tracking… awesome! Darn our hubby’s! I try so hard when he makes or brings home something to balance it out with a salad. Glad you’re mood is good and positive. Enjoy your days off and those long workouts! You will feel great!!

    @MaelynMayhem - I like the waling during commercials. And yes that would be quite the trek from the laundry room to your apartment for one piece at a time. It’d be along day of laundry for sure! LOL Maybe the table will be just enough to add a few more steps.

    @Tomkinsone - sounds like a fun Wednesday for sure! I’m going to start using my mom’s ab-doer on Wednesday’s. Then progress from there.

    @ajaia2001- you’re in my thoughts. <<HUGS>>

    @Fitgirllife72 - remember to exhale. One day at a time. You’re doing great.

    @littleflutterby - 1.4# is a great loss! Don’t be so hard on yourself. Yes, it’s hard - we want it now!! But your body will be able to maintain the loss when it’s a progression. Just breath and keep doing good!

    @j0d13mcc- Ever consider doing some chair exercises to at least not be overly frustrated with your injury? HUGS

    @Gustaaf85 - Woooohoooo! Nice loss!

    Ahhhhh that felt nice, to catch up. Now time to get my meals packed and off to see mom and to work! Happy Thursday all!

    Daily Post: 4/4 (Thursday)

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes; goal 1500/actual 1019
    Exercise: yes, Zombies, Run! (Rock the Boat), depending on how I feel later I might do another episode, or another night of just walking during commercials.
    Goals or Day: Stress management. I found out that three of the meds I take for a condition I have will run out on Tuesday of next week. The doctor I used to see won't refill them. The doctor I am going to see, I haven't seen yet so she can't legally refill them. I will be without a couple of them long enough for them to slip out of my system and symptoms to return. So, exercise is how I am managing the stress right now.

    Daily Post (Thursday 4/04)
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes (under 173)
    Exercise: Yes 35 mins
    10m Glider & stretching
    15m walk


    Daily Goals: ACHIEVED! 5 personal points~ for mindset with morning affirmations and improve my night routine/habits to stop after dinner binges.
    Planned, pre-logged, and plated dinner, except meat. Asked hubby to grill. Yeah!! I didn't eat my lunch- I forgot! So are snack a little early and filled up with green tea.
    Tonight seems a little easier. I am having positive self-talk to keep binging at bay. Gum on my nightstand is helping. And warm water, too. I'm in three other groups that challenge me in the areas to keep me motivated!! So far not overwhelmed or feel over committed. I have to be careful to not try to respond to everyone in all the groups. This is the ONE I'm going to call home.
    Now the KITCHEN IS CLOSED. Teeth brushed. And in bed. Thursday shows are on...not basketball!! Slumber well my friends.

    Daily post (4/4)
    Track- Yes
    Calories - Under
    Exercise - I walked 2 miles after lunch, and did a good 20 minutes of my workout at Taekwondo before the kids couldn't occupy the toddler anymore. But instead of cutting out I observed form work and sparring and practiced what I could while juggling my youngest.
