Gosh, this is awful. I think TOM has something to do with it, but I'm pretty disheartened.
This happened to me last week (actually I gained much more) --- and I am feeling like it's lingering this week too. Doesn't mean you didn't work hard, cause I worked my butt off---and the water fluctuations hit us all hard some weeks. Don't be distressed over it--- just keep plugging away!!🤗0 -

I am trying to figure out how I am going to handle this coming weekend.... We will be having a major food fest for Easter, with all the family together and all the kids together... Appetizers, egg hunt, delicious big dinner, tons of desserts..... chocolate everywhere....
It's gonna be difficult to rein in the cramming of food into the face.... I don't want to sabotage myself and and my goal, but at the same time, I want to enjoy myself and maybe not do so much calorie counting. The issue is that I am a snacker and a grazer. I won't sit down with a plate full. I will walk by and grab one or two things. But I will do that all day. I don't even remember half the times I do it, because I am running on automatic. Maybe chasing a kid, or heading to talk to someone, and I just grab a cookie or chips or fruit, or nachos, or whatever happens to be near me, on the way.
Hoping I can push for a big loss this week, and then if I overeat on the weekend, and have a small or no loss next week, it won't be too bad....
@tinak33 I think you have to remember your goals and maybe eat lighter before the events and choose ONE dessert that is worth it and eat that...I feel like you'll do better though if you think about what effect those choices will have on your goals....and maybe you cut food before then and indulge then, sort of like a re-feed day....just saying, there's options...4 -

You got this!Morning everyone
Apologies for not posting all week. Been doing some tough talking to myself to get myself back on track. Going to reassess my goals and get myself back into this.
Hugs to all that are or have been struggling. And thanks for all the support.
So new goals:
Get back in the gym and back to my running club starting Monday.
I’ve had a spring clean of my kitchen cupboards and fridge and will be restocking healthy stuff today.
Will weigh in tomorrow and I’ve got a spin class booked in.
Xxx
Wat to go. A new treadmill can take a bit to get used to, lucky you didn’t hurt yourself.CindyJNC1963 wrote: »Daily Post: April 13th

I used my new treadmill for the first time today. It is a NordicTrack and came the ifit app. It was really strange following along with a personal trainer while the app controlled the treadmill. I almost fell the first time it changed speeds on me because I wasn't expecting it.
That thing had me moving ....my heart rate was up to 120 at one point. I then did a slower walk followed by a few minutes on the bike. I didn't get my usual amount of steps in today but that was a much more intense workout.

Not doing so well recently since I tore an arm muscle moving furniture. The pain has been very tiring. Finally saw the doctor and will begin PT next week. I've been snacking on cookies, etc just for energy. Now that the weather is better I'll be getting in more walking and get back on track.River_Goddess wrote: »Daily check in Friday

I'm bummed that my weight didn't change but I'm feeling better in my body and clothing. I have to remind myself that the scale is only ONE way to measure success.
Have a great week everybody!

Another 2lbs down this week 💪 Almost into the 150s. I seem to be consistently losing 2lbs every week which I’m happy with. 23lbs down, 14lbs to go...I CAN do this 😃💪💫
Don’t be so hard on yourself. It happens to all of us. Just refocus. And be kind to yourself. Hugs.thelandkraken wrote: »Weekly weigh in

Unfortunately I badly sprained my foot and ankle on Thursday whilst dancing away at a wedding. This is prohibiting the amount of exercise I can do which is frustrating as I am on a walking holiday in Wales.
So instead I'm being really careful with my eating hopefully it will be a better weight loss next week.Username: nbatch456

I've been on a bit of a plateau the last couple of weeks. Hopefully this is movement in the right direction.
I've been working on a major software project for the last few weeks. Phase 1 "go live" date was today with a tough group to please. I worked all weekend checking all the details and making sure everything was a go. I expected today to be a madhouse with questions, etc. Not a peep.......so far. I can't believe it. My nerves are much more settled today than they were yesterday.
It can be so hard on days like these. I usually give up chocolate for lent (this year I did not) and Easter comes and I eat all the chocolate I want. Lol. But you got this.I am trying to figure out how I am going to handle this coming weekend.... We will be having a major food fest for Easter, with all the family together and all the kids together... Appetizers, egg hunt, delicious big dinner, tons of desserts..... chocolate everywhere....

🔆Calories: Under
🔆Exercise: Walking
🔆Comments: My appetite wasn’t that good today for some reason so I was quite a bit under my calories 😞 I was feeling a bit stressed with things today so that probably played a part. I done my food shop today and I plan on making my own coronation chicken salad wraps for lunch tomorrow. I’ve never made them before, so hopefully they turn out good 🤞2 -

Track: Yes
Calories under goal: Yes
Exercise: 13,800 steps
I got about 11,000 steps in at work today. I then did a 21 minute cardio workout on the treadmill with the ifit personal trainer. It was a tough workout........I was yelling at the app to slow down. The treadmill was inclined at times and got up to 2.8 mph. My heart rate was up to 146 at times. I'm proud of myself for just finishing. It was the 1st workout in a series but I'm not going to progress to the next one until I can handle this one better.

Exercise: Did house work and laundry both days.
Still eating Keto and really loving it. Joined a Keto group where the leader of the group has lost 100 lbs doing Keto and really helps you understand how to eat and track you macros. It is so easy once you know what you're doing. It is my new way of eating (WOE). I have lost 11 pounds so far jut since Feb 7th.3
