    I've been wearing knit pants for so long, you know you can just pull them down when need to. This weekend I was able to wear pants with a zipper I just pull them down, Then I realized I never unzipped my pants. Looks like I can go shopping for a smaller size.

    Since it's Wednesday, it's time for our last weekly challenge. Because this is the last week of the month we will only do this challenge through Saturday. How vital do you think it is to weigh and measure everything you eat or drink each day? Do you currently do that, or do you wing it? I'm trying to get into the habit of weighing and measuring everything accurately.

    The challenge that starts today until Saturday is:

    Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes?
    Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day?
    Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?
    Gutbusters Weekly Challenge:
    Did I faithfully measure and log everything I ate or drank?

    I measure everything, sometimes, I see wow that's only a cup or tablespoon. It really opened my eyes to portion control

    I agree 100%!! When I started using my scale and measuring cups I was shocked!! I thought my portions were good but I was totally overdoing it!!
    I love my scale haha!

    Did I faithfully measure and log everything I ate or drank? No, logged but not measured.

    Stressful time in the kitchen this afternoon. I was making dinner for a young family who just had their fourth baby. I've done turkey breast in the Instapot before and it turned out great. This one was too big so I thought I'd defrost it first and maybe it would fit afterward. Well, defrosting it in the microwave caused it to have a huge puddle of icky juice. It fit in the pot then but didn't cook all the way through. I tried finishing it up in the oven but was running out of time so called the mom and asked what they wanted from Cracker Barrel. Thankfully they were thrilled with that. LOL! I finished cooking the turkey when I got home and was too stressed and frustrated to think about measuring it. I think I'm close on the meat, but I don't know for sure like I would have if I had measured it. LOL! On a better note, my microwave is sparkling clean now!

    PW: 138.0 pounds
    CW: 136.0 pounds

    Happy to be back down 2 pounds after being up 2.3 pounds last week and up 1.5 pounds the previous week
    but it's hard to get excited about a loss when I am just re-losing what I had re-gained.

    Still need to lose 1.8 pounds to get back to my June 5th weight of 134.2 pounds.
    I know I can do it but I need to stop reverting back to unhealthy eating.

    This is my struggle. It's so easy to slip into old bad habits and requires much more effort and intentionality to stick with healthy foods and portions.
