    Weekly Weigh-In
    Username: buniphuphu
    Weigh in week: Week 1
    Weigh in day: Saturday
    Starting Weight: 327.6
    Previous Weight: 301.6
    Today's Weight: 299.0

    I’m weighing today because we leave this afternoon for vacation, and I would miss weigh in otherwise. I am so pleased to be officially out of the 300s! 🎉🎉🎉

    @AustinRuadhain asked if there were any special plans for the holiday...We’re doing a road trip, and we’ve got lots of fresh fruit and veggies ready to go in the cooler instead of relying on junk food from convenience stores. We’ll be white water rafting and doing a lot of hiking over elevation in Colorado.

    I’m so happy for you!! Enjoy your vacay!

    @KMD1214 - Brilliant loss this week! Congratulations! So delighted for you! 🎉🎉🎉
    You sound excited about increasing exercise - awesome! So what kinds of movement do you like to do?

    @Kres567 - 😃 Wow! Congratulations on such a great day! I love that you found a strategy for the evening that works for you. What kind of tea do you like for your treat? ☕? 🥤? I grew up loving iced tea with sugar and lemon, but these days have some herbal teas I love (Celestial Seasonings Cinnamon Apple tastes sweet to me without any sugar, so that's a go-to for me!)

    @UTMom81 - Wow! I love all that outdoor exercise. I read that you are headed out to go 🚣 kayaking and am just so inspired! 🤩

    @melissa2013m - You are down 2 pounds this week! Congratulations on a great weigh-in! 🎉🎉🎉

    @bethanie0825 - I love your Green Challenge goal! 😊😊

    @Katmary71 - I was filled with envy when I read about your cooking with what sounded like basil that you grew, and all those adventures with veggies are so inspiring! 🥗 I hope your weight lifting 💪🏽 yesterday went well, and that the visit to your uncle's house today goes well. That meal planning and packing to have food that works for you sounds like a great strategy!

    Happy 4th July American friends!

    Well, I made my steps because we parked nowhere near the hospital! 13026 in total. Alas we did not feel like the cinema... treats wise, I went to the deli and brought some rhubarb cider, smoked cheese, and loose leaf tea.

    The appointment was not so great for answers. More scans needed before the op. But the op must be. Rough times ahead... :'(

    Sooo happy for you!!! The incremental steps that take us to a goal are more important than the goal - you can't lose 10 pounds until you lose 1 and 5, etc... => What a boost when you can peel back one of the numbers!! WOOHOO!!

    What helps me drink water more than anything is to fill up my favorite water bottle (one that makes me smile) with ice and cold water (I like my water COLD).I try to get 3 of these in each day. I also always order water at restaurants and try to drink a good bit before ordering my meal. I also try to drink water any time I feel hungry. It helps those hunger pangs go away.
    Have your goal based on half your body weight in ounces, but extend yourself some grace in building up to it. Try for a little improvement each day. You'll be surprised how quickly you can make progress.

    Donna, I know it must be frustrating and a little scary when you don't get the answers you need about your health. Try to stay positive and keep a good attitude. Know that we are all here for you when you need to talk, and that we will be lifting you up in prayer. That's a huge number of steps you got in yesterday! Keep moving. It will help calm your mind and bring you some peace until you know more. {{{Hugs}}}

    Water: over
    Exericse: 45 minutes on the treadmill

    Happy 4th of July!! I've had the last three days off from work so I'm all confused about what day it is! :D I did good on my eating and just had a plate of pulled pork and a yummy broccoli, bacon, and cheddar salad. Tonight I'm going to hang out with some girlfriends and watch this show called The Office that I have never seen and they are obsessed with. :) I will be bringing some low carb snacks and NOT eating their carb loaded junk food. ;)

    I’m a plain old Orange pekoe tea lover - with milk and sugar but I’ve started using stevia. I tried it again tonight and it worked! 😁
