@CindyJNC1963 Great day and awesome loss! You're still plugging along!
And I wouldn't call the lapband stupid, you made the best decision you could with the available data at the time. You truly believed it would help, however, you do posses the power to change your life, as you're proving now. I hope that you start feeling better, don't let your fears get to you, you are doing amazing!
@cydneebauman Nice day! Sometimes we do need rest! And awesome loss this week! Keep it up!
@Fitness327wk Glad you made it back to barre, it's amazing when we don't do something for a while how hard it can be!
@vicky2767 Awesome day!!
@lsjhudson Nice day, even if you went over your calories a little bit, it's still a step in the right direction!! And you'r still doing great, awesome loss this week!!
@2muchchocncrisps A loss is still a loss, great start to June!
@digger61 You're doing great, glad to see you getting back to your activity!
@SLIMn2016 Once again, stellar day!
@Gadgetgirl259 Rocking it, nice loss!
@o0kody0o Awesome day!! Hang in there, some weeks are like that, and sometimes TOM isn't nice to us.
@aadubb That's usually been my experience with extended fasts, and well food in general, if I don't touch it, I'm fine, if I touch it, I overeat...so intermittent fasting works best for me, and sometimes I do an extended fast every month of couple of months, makes me feel like I'm in control, even though, one little mishap and I am most certainly not in control. And I've never had an issue with energy, always lift weights and do my cardio as normal...
And awesome weigh in!! WTG!
@eamitch88 Nice day, glad you got in a walk, even though you weren't feeling well, sometimes it can help, hopefully you're back to normal soon.
@gjaholy33 While you may have only lost 7 lbs last month, that's 7 less lbs that you're carrying around, and what you gained outside of the scale is so much more important. You resisted the temptation to fall into old patterns when it got tough, which is truly inspirational, so keep hanging in there, you will get there.
@OkieGina Hang in there, you'll get it next week!
@skayy007 Aweosme loss! Great start to June!!!
@angiequinby Great loss this week!
@melodyis4reals Hang in there, you'll get it next week!!4 -

Daily post Monday 3rd June
Track yes
Calories No! Well over*
Exercise Yes 11500 steps including lots of stairs.
Comment *Special day out today with treats that definitely wonโt happen again for a long while. Faithfully logged and although I wasnโt surprised it just illustrated how bad some foods are. Classic junk lunch meal that consisted of burger, sweet potato fries and milkshake (and later a caramel Frappuccino) exceeded my daily limit by a lot (without adding breakfast). Just loads of calories from fat and sugar. Too full to eat any dinner otherwise it would have been even worse!
Tuesday plan = drink lots of water, keep moving and keep well under my calorie goal.

Daily post for Monday 6/3
Track: yes
Calories: yes under
Exercise: stairs at work and 265 squats
Water: about 240 oz
Back on track, and I feel much better.... gonna have to undo the weekend damage... but I will say it was very tasty damage!!! haha And I still stayed in the 140s, so I didn't do TOO bad. I am done with the 150s and need to continue moving on from there, so since I just got in the 140s, at this point, I don't mind any "damage" I do, as long as I stay in the 140s...
I am not trying to race to my goal of 135, but at the same time, I don't want to take a year. Slow and steady with fluctuations is fine cuz life happens.
And when life gives me cake.... I eat it. I just make sure it's a small portion, cuz life will also give me chips and cookies when it gives me cake....
But then the day (or weekend...lol) is done, and I make adjustments the rest of the week. Learning how to manage (and enjoy) these festive food events is part of how I will learn to maintain my weight and not gain 30 lbs in 4-6 months.....(again)....

I agree with you. Life happens. Sometimes itโs ok to eat the cake. Lol. I too am learning to just eat small portions of these goodies. I too do not want to go through life without being able to have them. Just need to control how much of it I eat. So well done.
And holy Batman 265 squats? Dang gurl. Way to go.

Daily Post (Monday, 6/3)
Track: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: 1 hour walking
Yesterday was the first day my wife and I were supposed to get up early and walk, but we both slept in. However, after work, we did have some free time (for once) and we got a nice hour walk in, and ended up hitting my 10,000 step goal.
I am off today because I have a few doctor appts. I have been having terrible terrible headaches off and on the last few months so I am getting and MRI of my brain, just to make sure. Then I have a few xrays and some labs for a few other issues. But, my wife and I DID get a 45 minute walk in this morning. So, I suppose it is starting off well.
Giving the Intermittent Fasting one last shot. I think it helped before, but this go around it has been super hard to stick with for some reason.
Happy Tuesday everyone!!7 -

Wahoo! It feels good to be getting back on track again!
And even though this is Monday's post, I do have to mention that I just turned down FREE pizza for lunch today (Tuesday). It just wasn't worth it. I'd rather have pizza with my family sometime than free pizza at work!2 -
