Up a little...not surprised. I have had many events and busy nights so eating out and eating on the run. I need to plan my food better. I will be ready for June. Sorry team.
@heaz10, at least you know why you had this little up, and what you need to do differently. You'll turn things around in June....I have no doubt!!1 -

Almost made it back to pre-holiday weight HASWLRS. Just half a pound to go now.
I will weigh in again on 5th June and then my final one for a long time on 11th June (a day early) as I am once again on my holidays until the end of July.
@prehistoricmoongoddess, very nice loss this week!! Congratulations on getting (almost) back to your pre-holiday weight! And the second number is a four again....it looks so much better that way!!!
Okay. So here is how I think we should handle your holiday schedule. You will be part of the June Challenge until you leave for vacation. Once you leave, I'll have you removed from the official spreadsheet. Since you don't come back until the end of July, I'll have you re-register for the August Challenge, if indeed, that is your intention. I feel you'll be gone too long to just roll your weight over. That being said, if at any time you find yourself with internet, or when you come back while it is still July, feel free to jump onto the current thread for a quick update or even an unofficial weigh-in. The thread is always open to you...it's just the spreadsheet that makes it official. Does that sound reasonable to you?1 -

@cmhubbard92
Thank you for taking the time to share some of your wisdom. Thanks for bringing up bread and eggs. I just logged those as the package says.And probably other similar items.
I have Tupperware that has measurements on the bowls that I had been using to measure food. I am switching to a food scale as some things don't fit.2 -
@HASWLRS
Thank you for your support and advice as well. Those snacks sound really tasty. I may have to try them.
It sometimes really hard to deal with the cravings because my husband loves for me to bake him sweet snacks. I used to not enjoy them but a couple of years ago I developed a sweet tooth. I am trying to find better snacks for myself and leave his alone.2 -
@brandi_84 you're welcome 😊 it may seem like it takes more time to use a food scale, but it gets pretty easy after a while!@cmhubbard92

It can be also super surprising using the food scale. Some things(like strawberries) I can have way more of without sacrificing a bunch of calories 😊 I'm happy you have asked for tips/advice! We all struggle sometimes!4 -

I'm back up a couple which puts me at no loss for this month. I began my new meal plan yesterday and I am back to exercising as well.
I also think the weight is due to some water retention.1 -
With a 7 pound gain last week I felt like I needed to get my head back in the game!
I haven't weighed since that terrible scale incident last Friday, so lets see what happens in a couple of days. 2 -

I think the long weekend at the end of a long month messed up a lot of people. We only had 12 participate this week, down from 16 the week before and we only had two in the Winner's Circle, down from from five the week before. @cmhubbard92 was joined this week by @drea2011 in the Winner's Circle!! Congratulations, Christine (ALL SEVEN DAYS!) and Drea for an outstanding week!!6 -

@brandi_84, there's a positive attitude!! Yes, it could be water. Regardless, it's almost a new month and a fresh start with your new meal plan and daily exercise!! No looking back....only forward!!3 -
5/29/2019 Mini Challenge
Tracked: Yes
Under: Yes
Exercise: Yes, 10 minutes walking, 30 minutes cleaning
Finally got in to see the orthopedic doctor! He said the clinic I went to shouldn't have told me to use a sling, it only created more stiffness in my shoulder. Based on my symptoms and the location of the pain, he told me I have some type of tendonitis(I can't remember). I declined the cortisone shot, but made an appointment to get it on Friday, in case the anti-inflammatory he prescribed doesn't help. If all goes well, I will be able to get back to the gym and work on Monday! *happy dance*
For now, I'm just taking it easy!6 -
