Weigh in 3
CW - 134 pounds 😢
I’ve not been feeling well this week (sore throat and blocked sinuses) so I’ve been eating everything to comfort myself and not tracking. I hope I can recover from this next week and don’t gain back all my loss 😩 I feel I’ve gained much faster having been ill and consuming far too much - is that possible to gain more when your body is run down?2 -
Thanks @jugar and good for you too for getting into the teens!!! I don't think I will ever see those days again!! Have a great weekend!!2

The scale finally shifted down after 2 weeks, but I'm so bloated I look pregnant and feel uggggggh. I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday next week so hopefully he can figure out what's going on with my stomach.
But I finally made it to mini-goal number 1: 250. Huzzah! My reward is that I'm buying merch when I hit the show in Denver in two weeks. Maybe a shirt.
Mini goal number 2 is 225.3 -

Heading to the lake for the weekend. NO KIDS!! I think this is the first time ever with no kids!! We are going to hit the 10k trail for the first time since we have no winers with us
WOW. I am sure the step counts are going to be amazing! Or maybe it will just be the moments of relaxing. But no whining for sure!1 -
I'm going to take my one weigh in pass for tomorrow. I'm swollen all over...hands, feet, legs, even my face. Its almost like I'm allergic to salt. I'll be back next week. So don't count me out.2

It is totally possible. I was completely under the weather last week, hardly exercised at all. I think the body conserves everything possible when feeling sick - so double down when you're feeling better - get on your food plan, and get whatever exercise you can manage as soon as possible. It will be OK - as much as you gained, will go off when you do what you need to do!Weigh in 3

I'm so sorry to hear that! I hope you can get the swelling under control, and always look forward to your posts. You have a way with words - so let them fly. A pass for weighing in is totally fine, but don't pass up letting us hear from you, ok?

@SueSueDio - it is always good to be reminded of how important it is to have scrupulous honesty in logging. The only person you hurt by letting it slide is yourself - I have a tendency not to log when things are not great, and I thank you for the reminder of how silly that is.
@micki48 HOT? you're right that there is some seriously weird weather around, but I am looking forward to being in North Carolina soon for some of that hot. Right now there is a fire in my wood stove.
@Terytha - hope you're OK, and good job on the 1 pound loss! I worry that you're feeling sick, though, and am glad you're seeing the doc. Deep breath.1 -

@jugar ...thanks so much for your kind words. They mean a lot. Sometimes I feel disconnected from the group because I don't post daily. Then i don't have time to catch up on the large number of posts I've missed since the last time. But life is busy and it's all about setting....and keeping....priorities, right? I am so determined to nail this consistency thing down! We're almost halfway through this year and I declare this year's end will see a much healthier me!!!! I'm sick and tired of each year being a carbon copy of the one before it. NOT. THIS. TIME.5 -

Happy Saturday team. I’m feeling pretty frustrated about my weigh in. Down 2 lbs of the 10 I gained last week. I’ve stuck to my IF schedule, I’ve drank almost 3L of water daily I’ve stayed under my calorie goals every day mind some days I ate into my workout calories, I went out for walks every day with the exception of Monday, my snacking is still there but I’m making much better choices when it happens (unsalted nuts, fresh fruits and berries etc) and I’m only down 2 lbs of the 10. I was hoping to have lost at least half. I do believe my tummy swelling has something to do with this as I am more swollen around my incisions now than I have been since I had my surgery. The hematoma keeps filling back up after it gets drained and I think this may be a factor in my numbers. But it’s still extremely frustrating. Mid week I was actually down to 170 when the swelling started up and I was up 2 lbs the next day. Maybe I should stay out the challenge the rest of the month so I don’t negatively affect the team for the monthy results.

A 2 lb loss in a week is a tremendous accomplishment! From multiple sources I've read, a healthy weekly weight loss is 1-2 lbs. So you nailed it! You got this!!!!🙂🙂🙂2 -

We hall have our ups and downs don't worry about it, stay on!!!! you got this !!!!2 -
Don’t be silly @matthewsfive this is real life we will all have loss and gains and this teams results have to reflect that accuarately. No one just keeps losing weight there will come a point even with the same exercise and low calorie consumption even the most perfect persons body will get used to those factors and simply maintain. A bit like how humans become resistant to antibiotics eventually. If u don’t participate there is a high chance you fall off the wagon completely and give up. The point of this team is two fold - yes one to see if our team loses the most weight but two to make sure we all stay on track and don’t go back to old unhealthy weight gaining habits. I’ve gained 4 pounds this week so I know I’ve suffered a set back but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to weigh in. This week has helped me understand what factors which are out with my control make me gain. For me this week I’ve been ill and I’ve been commuting all over the place and not tracking properly so I now know those two elements have contributed to my gain. The next time I have a busy week I need to preplan and keep healthy food with me and take supplements like echinacea to boost my immune system or next time I’ll gain again.1
