Finally in the 100's, haven't been here in a long time. 30 lbs down, 47 more to go. Almost at the halfway mark.4 -
Thanks you all for your support. @AB0215 You're right. Being down about a rough patch isn't very productive and I'm grateful that others here have faced similar struggles and know what it's like right now. I won't let this derail me from my goals. It may be super slow going, but I'm still going!2

Allergies were acting up from all of the dust being stirred up in my house with the renovations. Took a Benadryl and it knocked me out. I slept sooooo well last night! I hadn't been sleeping well for about a week and was exhausted, my anxiety was acting up, and I was just generally in a down mood. I feel so much better today!1 -

Track: Yes
Calories under goal: No, over by 66 calories
Exercise: 10,250 steps
I went over my calories on purpose. I've been under for several days and I'm trying not to stay at the same calorie level all the time.
It was hard getting my steps in today. It was one meeting after another....so I was pacing the halls between meetings and finally got over 10,000.

@CindyJNC1963 Awesome day, way to get those steps in despite being in meetings all day!!
@tinak33 Way to stay on plan!
@o0kody0o Awesome day!!
@SLIMn2016 Great workout!
@digger61 Nice day!! Great exercise!
@DeshotelK I'm glad you're feeling better today! I think it's important to realize that not every day is going to be great or go according to plan, but it's really what you do next that's important, pick yourself up and carry on! That's how we get there!
@genajonas GREAT JOB! Onderland! Woot woot!
@jmitts2 Nice job! Great loss and way to get back to working out!!
@CourtneyLomonaco Sometimes we lose the snack battle, something I'm struggling with right now, sitting here, it's taking everything I have not to get up and go to the kitchen!
@Bm00re2u Great day!!
@gjaholy33 Sometimes it's hard when you have to rely on others, great job staying positive though despite the challenges!! Good luck with the worker's comp!
@Gadgetgirl259 Nice workout!! And glad you're having fun with your puppy!!
@Thumper0104 Hang in there, stay the course! The losses will come!1 -
QUESTION: Does anyone here weigh in daily??
After a week off track (and not being able to weigh in last week) I downloaded the App, "Happy Scale" to track daily--- just wondering if anyone else has found it helpful. I thought daily weighing might make me crazy---but so far, I think it's helping to get my mindfulness back!
@SLIMn2016 I weigh in daily. Love watching the numbers and the graph in Happy Scale. Helps me a lot. I can see my monthly jumps. Watch plateaus and when they break. Helpful to me.

Track: Yes
Calories: Over
Exercise: No
I was on target with my calories. Then late last night my daughter sat by me with a box of Cheese Nips while we watched Paranormal Caught on Camera and I sort of just snacked with abandon on those crisp cheesy little squares of yummy goodness. Don't know how much I actually ate.

I weigh in in the morning... but @gemwolf110 said she used to weigh in morning and night in HS---and I was thinking that it would be interesting to weigh both times a day just to see what the fluctuation is during the day. But as far as Happy Scale goes---I just record once in the morning.
I really like that App and I kick myself for not having used it when one of my MFP friends told me about it over a year ago🤦🏻♀️---it helps keep you more mindful of your goal without freaking you out about the numbers--bc it does averages for you.0 -

@SLIMn2016 - I weigh in daily after my morning shower. It helps me keep motivated because even going up a little means I messed up and I need to refocus and have a better day. My weight chart looks like a roller coaster but it keeps trending down so I am happy.2 -
^^ I'm really glad I asked---seems that daily weighing is helping most of you who are remaining consistent in your losses. Nice job @jmitts2 -- you are doing terrific, so it must be working for you! I'm going to stick with it for June and see if it helps.2
