    If anyone is interested I’m up for virtual exercise competition on Fitbit, because obviously I need a bit of help upping the exercise !!

    @LMK02020 what is your link for Fitbit? I can add you, we have a group of us doing challenges pretty much weekly!

    Under Yes - a miracle, I went to a party/bbq and had grilled chicken, made key lime pie for desert and saved calories for it to fit in.
    Exercise No, sadly - that's two no's this week. BUT also two YESes!!!

    Week: Week 1
    Today: Thursday, July 4
    Start weight:  216 lbs
    Previous week's weight: 215.4 lbs
    Current week's weight: 216.6  lbs

    Knew and expected this gain after the past week.. I can only just keep trying and accept that the next couple weeks are not going to be easy for me. I can say though that I have had 4 or 5 lb gains in a day or two before when things were rough so I'm taking this as a hiccup... not a setback.

    Current week's weight: 215.4 lbs

    Maintained 🙄 I’m really annoyed at this actually. I know I shouldn’t be because I’m doing the right things and it will all come off in time but I’ve been SO consistent this week. Have clocked up 4 gym workouts since Sunday and have walked my 10000 steps every day. Food has also been to plan so who knows what’s happening!

    Amazing to read everybody’s losses though and taking so much motivation from that! Well done everyone 🎉

    @Coral333 maintaining this week is a wonderful thing(it didn't go up, right?)! Just know that you are doing all the right things, and I'm sure it will pay off next week at Weigh-In! There are so many reasons why you may not have seen a loss on the scale this week, that are totally out of your control! Stay positive, and keep your focus! Maybe next week will bring a greater loss!

    @sandkp
    You have the right mindset, this is not a setback, just a hiccup! Just continue to make mindful choices, even when things get tricky! This is not a contest to see who reaches goal the fastest, so just keep pushing to reach your goals at your own pace 😊 I hope that the next few weeks are not too difficult for you!

    Thursday, Independence Day (7/4/19)

    Tracking: yes
    Under: no (bbq, snacks and alcohol did not add up to reasonable calories)
    Exercise: no

    Sunday - no
    Monday - YES
    Tuesday - YES
    Wednesday - YES
    Thursday - no

    Mindset was not right yesterday. Bad thing is that I knew I wasn’t going to exercise so I knew I wouldn’t get a “yes” for the mini challenge which made me think “why work to stay under calories if I’m not getting a yes anyway”. Very bad mindset to have and something I’ll have to work on. I tend to be all or nothing and my exercise (or lack thereof sometimes) dictates my food choices.

    Weigh in
    Last: 243.7
    This: 246.1

    Having my weigh in the morning after the 4th bbq is not ideal. I did my best, no buns on the burger, hard seltzers instead of beer. But i still have to be bloated regardless.
    I don’t believe this is my true weight so I am mot going to be upset over it. I’m gonna dip out for this weekend and enjoy my long holiday. I will get back on Sunday and conquer next week.

    I'm super late at posting this week, but I did weigh in on Wednesday!

    154.4

    Not too bad considering I'm in the middle of one of my not-at-home weeks. I drink so much less water while I'm . away, and I can definitely tell! I'll be headed back home Monday ready for two more weeks of hard work before another week of fun!
