    Psyching myself up to get motivation. Can you tell I was an elementary school teacher? Each ring is a pound. When I lose it, I get to rip it off. Then when I get them all off, I’m at this goal. 4f1s2qh6ly4i.jpeg

    I like that! :) Visual or physical things can be very helpful at times, I think. I need to make myself some more charts - I like colouring in little blocks and feeling accomplished when I have several of them filled in!

    Just looked through years of my “progress”. My big gain, like 10 pounds in a month, directly corresponds to my despair over a very troubling elected official. I also noticed that my most recent low happened to be on one of my best friend’s birthday at the end of August. She tragically died in a car accident some years ago. We often tried to lose weight together. So I am making that my target goal and date. For me/her. It’s ambitious, especially given my 3 month plateau at 200-ish. I also have a screenshot of my lowest weight in 5 years. That is goal number 2. I hope to be there by the end of the year. I know it is going to mean I have to up my game, but I need to. So there...I said it. It’s out there.

    This is beautiful. Powerful. You are going to be able to break this plateau - you did it once, you let go of it, and now you can get it back. It is hard - but you have all the best ingredients: purpose, determination, and courage. We'll be there to help!

    @matthewsfive - WOW! Great week, and you are SPOT ON to make your green pledge of 6 pounds for the month. You might even beat it if you keep losing at this rate! Super job.

    @evangsimmons170 - thanks for the reminder. I really should do things the minute they happen so they don't fall through the cracks!

    @micki48 I love your primary school tool - it is perfect! Being able to rip one of those off every week or two is a blast. You could then burn them outside and do a mini bonfire dance. :p

    @jugar I love the idea of burning them or destroying them in some way, so they can’t return 😉. A dance will definitely be in order.

    That momentary panic when you’ve been walking around all morning only to realize your Fitbit is charging and it’s almost noon! 🤣🤣

    Terytha weighing in.

    It feels like cheating, since I ate awful all week but have also been super sick. But, well, I'll take loss where I can find it. Next week probably won't be as dramatic.

    @jagur
    Thanks, glad I didn't change my green pledge. I will try really hard to get to that 6 pound loss

    SueSueDio week 4 weigh in:

    previous: 161.5
    current: 160.5

    So happy that I didn't get the pound or so of water weight that I was expecting after yesterday's sodium intake...! It actually went down instead. :)

    Ironically, if I'd kept my weigh in day as Wednesday I'd have been able to post 160, but it's all good. ;) Now to try and make it under 160 by next weekend...
