Total loss for August -
8/7/19:
I have cut my calories per day from probably 2000-2500 (before 6/10/19 I wasn't paying attention at all) to about 1200-1500 per day. I'm having a really hard time fitting exercise into my schedule with 3 kids - 3yrs & 10 month old twins. I'm working really hard on my food intake and getting really discouraged. I'm currently debating about trying IF but I don't want to try taking on too many restrictions at once and getting more discouraged and giving up on everything entirely.3 -

I am not sure, but I think I might have lost a bit of water weight that was hiding weight loss. We'll find out next week!4 -

August Loss - ???
Thoughts: Lots of weight fluctuation in the last week. Happy that there's no overall gain and the trend weight is dropping. I feel back on track with my goals. Still slacking on strength training, but getting more walks in.
Walk #2 with husband last night. We're pushing for 3-4 per week as a goal. It's big progress for him, and it's helping me because I'm still horribly chained to desk. I'm a federal employee and we're coming up on end of fiscal year, so there's a big flurry of activity.
Sister in law is meeting me this evening for another 2 miler - hoping theweather holds out for us.

I'd been hanging at 128/129 at the end of (ok, most of) July. I had wayyyy too much sodium so 8/1 weight was definitely water weight. It's not truly a 5lb loss - just my love of soy sauce π6 -
