    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Day: Solid day, saved some calories throughout the day to have some popcorn at the movies. Split a large between 4 people and didn't even finish and I made sure to remain mindful as best I could and only take as much as I actually wanted to eat rather than just mindlessly munching!

    Weigh in Week: week 4
    Start weight: 154 lbs
    Previous Weight: 149.6 lbs
    Current Weight: 154 lbs

    Sorry I missed last week, was sick. Partner is back from traveling, between jobs, and making huge, extravagant meals all the time. Doesn't want to work out, wants to sit around and watch TV with me constantly. We also have guests for two weeks, and work's been so crazy that I go in when I wake up and get home late almost every night with a massive stress migraine. I can't wait until things calm down again. Hoping that next week is a bit of a turning point.

    Daily report
    Run: another class this morning 50/50 aerobic and strength
    Track: yes, under with workout calories
    Mind: not sure about weighing in tomorrow, been a very up and down week. I suspect a gain :( I just hope I don't use it as an excuse to eat as I have in the past. Oddly enough, I tend to eat both ways, as a 'reward' for a good loss and as 'feeling down' for a gain. Gotta stop that!

    I couldn’t post a loss, but I knew that would be probable because of bloating. Hopefully my first week for August will be better.

    Things I did well was to keep on walking and exercising. I did better with my water too! Things I will continue to work on is my water intake and getting at least 7 hours of sleep per night.

    Tracked yes
    Calories a little over my goal, but way under with exercise.
    Exercise: Yepper...3.7 mile run

    It was a good day. Hoping to be strong over the weekend. We have a grad party and a big food/drink/concert festival in town on Saturday. I need to remain strong for my weigh in Monday.

    Exercise: no but the usual running around at work. I am tired!

    Today I went out to lunch and had to skip dinner to stay under. That was hard. @johicks I am still not getting my water! I need to get it in! Thanks for asking and for your support! Looking forward to a great August!

    Tracked: yes
    Calories: just under
    Exercise: 50 min speed walk going uphill on the treadmill

    I walk on the treadmill just about every other night. While I am fully capable of running, I choose to walk so I can play UNO on my phone 🤣 it passes the time quickly!

    Not very happy ending the month with a gain but looking at the bigger picture this time last year I was almost halfway to 300 lbs. So I'm okay were I'm at right now and only about 10 more pounds till I hit my year goal I set last September.

    My Thursday..... In the simplest formats w/o going into a huge discussion... 6/8 of a good day. Its u fortunate that those 2/8 have such a negative impact. Getting my mind right... Today, during the day, into dinner hour, and then for the night. One moment at a time.

    Yes I can !!

    @jwall309~ Jessica - Amazing at the theatre. 👊🏽 Way to be back in the groove!
    @GoalDigger11~ Sorry to hear you were sick. Sounds like you have a lot going on. Hang in there and do your best. 👍🏽 You got this!!
    @Perla4686~ Ugh! Big hugs my friend. I wish we could take a walk together to talk it out together. Good job on getting to the 50/50 class. 👍🏽 Treat today as just THIS day. We need to do what is good and right for TODAY. We can do that!! Focus on the positives. :) And that is….. You started the month in the 180’s and you finished in the 170’s. So keep working hard on getting into the 160’s. What you did yesterday doesn’t matter, what you do tomorrow isn’t here to worry about. It’s what you do TODAY! You can do it!! Yes, you can! You’re not alone. Say I will wait for 10 minutes, then go do something else, then go back to whatever it is. And I’m telling you right now… the answer is not in biscuits. ;) hahaha
    @JamieD328~ Hang in there. Let’s set our minds to have an Awesome August! Keep the good positive habits going strong.
    @tbchitwood76~ You’re doing great!! What an exciting loss! 👍🏽 Keep doing it! July 9.8# lost. Bye Bye LBS!
    @jupdyke~ Wooohooooo!! A great run! 👍🏽 You can do this weekend, mindfully and w/exercise. :)
    @skullsandskeletons~ You’re welcome. Other than being tired and exhausted from work, you’re doing great! 👍🏽 Wow. Skipped dinner. You are strong. Yes… let’s have an amazing August!
    @MADDIESMOMMY6611~ Tremendous Thursday!! LOL Yes, when I bike I play to play on my phone, too. 👍🏽
    @germaine_yee~ Good job on a great loss. Ending the month even is better than a gain, for sure! Keep working hard. 👍🏽
    @ajaia2001~ Wow! You’re doing great with looking at the big picture. Yes, that little gain will be gone, soon!

    Remember we are . . .

    The three elements of what it takes to be successful at weight-loss and keeping it off are:
    Run -keep moving
    Track -know what you’re eating/ drinking
    Mind -train your brain to be positive about yourself and okay with change(s).

    I was going to say....’I don’t know what happened?!’ But that would not be truthful. I ate like crap. I gave into the ‘I don’t care what I eat, I’m hungry’ category.

    I logged one day this week just to see where I was at on the calories and it was more than double. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Day: the struggle was and is still real today. Went to dinner, made healthy choices. I even passed up my usual 3 to 4 white Russians and went with ice tea. Tough, but gotta be done. Tomorrow is a big festival. Gonna be tough.

    Today was rough! Ordered my mom a steak for her birthday from my fav place Texas Roadhouse, and I didn’t get anything bc I already hit my calories and tomorrow is weigh in (technically today cause it’s past 12am).

    Luckily though, tomorrow is my “cheat” day where I only cheat with one meal instead the whole day. Needless to say, I’m getting steak, mashed potatoes, and their delicious bread and butter. 🤤

    @jwall309~ Yeah!! A loss. 👏🏽 I know you want to lose faster. You are doing great and are approaching this in such a sensible way that you will keep you losses OFF! :) We’re going to have an AWESOME AUGUST!
    @lovethyneighbor~ I hate when I get that attitude. I do good all day and then at night . . . UGH! So, let’s do our best to pick ourselves up. Dust off this awful feeling, and CARE about ourselves. Care what we put into our bodies. Care about how we feel. Care about the energy we want. Care about what we tell ourselves, because WE DO CARE!! 🤗
    @jupdyke~ Wow! 👊🏽 You did it!! Good job.
    @skullsandskeletons~ Amazing!! You’re doing so good. Fabulous Friday!
    @MADDIESMOMMY6611~ Great self-control. Good job!

    Me… another day down the tubes. :( I started out strong, then my triggers hit and I didn’t have the energy or fight in me. But today is a new day. I’m going to do my best. Tomorrow is weigh-in. I know I can’t undo all the damage I did this week in one day. But I’m hoping it will get my mind and body right back on track. I hate to think I’ll start the month out with a gain, AGAIN! Ugh! That’s not the captain or person or yo-yo life I want. If it is to be it is up to me. So I better get my mind right! Have a good day. Be mindful and present in your choices.

    @perla4686 - @ajaia2001 - @JamieD328 How ya doing? You have been posting all week and nothing for Friday day/night. Just reaching out because your posts help me!! HUGS

    @JammyPea - Please post week #4 weigh-in (Mon)... Thanks.
    @Fivepts - Do you have a week #4 post for July, before you head to Turkey. Or is it too late?
