    🤷🏻‍♀️ it’s like my body doesn’t want to leave the 160’s 🤣 at least this week I can find some acceptance. It’s still a bummer, but I’m not jumping ship. 💛

    @allietuge That may be the best exercise plan ever.

    Checking in!
    Exercise? 6 mile run today and ever so many miles walked
    Calories? Over :-(
    Tracked? Yes!

    I’m about 100 calories over for the day, but still 400 calories under for the week so far. 👍🏻 I was just really hungry all day and we made some really lazy food choices. 🤣

    Good morning! Today we’re starting our fifth week for May. If you're still with us you've stayed the course. Some may have gained, some have lost, but you're here and you're a winner in my book!!

    My weight has been up this past week even though I’ve been doing very well. I was pleased to see it drop back down today instead of staying elevated. Not a loss in “weight”, but I know there is hidden fat loss even if it’s not showing up!

    I'm super bummed...after having such a great week last week, I suffered a knee injury, and everything went south. Anyone else deal with a sidelining injury...how did you deal without losing total motivation...and how did you bounce back? :-(

    Hang in there @deanit.

    Wt loss is like 80-90% diet, you can rest your knee and still meet your goals.

    Cheers!

    Thanks for the reminder @beloved0922. It can just be so demoralising. It's been a hard week dealing with the pain and ideas for rehabilitation (it's possibly an overdue injuring...maybe a torn meniscus), so I'm doing better, but my eating derailed along with my focus....so I'm trying to pick myself back up and carry on.

    @deanit I injured my neck not long ago, nothing major, but I couldn’t lift weights for awhile and even had to cut back on cardio some to make sure I didn’t hurt it worse. Like @beloved0922 said, what you eat is the biggest factor so I really doubled down on paying attention to my intake. I also reduced my deficit during that because I didn’t want to underfuel the healing process. We don’t lose fitness as quickly as we might fear from my experience so hang in there. I was back my precious level with lifting a few weeks after I was able to get back to it, and my cardio didn’t suffer at all after the initial first run.

    @BonnieHosk85

    Once the May challenge is over will we be automatically rolled into the June challenge?

    Sure will, @allietuge, just let me know if you want your weigh in day to change.

    @deanit, so sorry for your injury. That sounds so painful! Like these ladies said before me, you can still stay on track. Mental is a big part of it so don't be so hard on yourself. It's one pound. That's really not so bad considering you weren't able to exercise. We're pulling for you! Your fifth week for May is going to be a loss, I just know it! <3
