Weigh-in day Mondays
Last week's 137
CW 136

Scale went back up from 135, I've stopped weighing every day as I'm getting frustrated, always seems to be up on Mondays and I'm really careful. I guess I'll keep reminding myself that at least it's down from last week. I haven't been eating my exercise calories back and was going to start with some, but may wait until I'm a solid 135.

I went to Petco with family and came home with two feral kittens. So much for the single black friendly female I was thinking of getting! One is going to take more work than the other, but they're doing well so far.

Have a great day everyone!

@TeresaW1020 Glad your cold is doing better! Getting a cat would be an excellent way to make a house a home!

@Jactop - Great job maintaining! 👍🏽

@nlalamin04 - 🌅 Today's a new day! Maybe pick one area to concentrate on, like logging? However you tackle getting back on track, you can totally do this!
And maybe some of this relates to the treatments and your body dealing with that. So keep making healthy choices and take care of yourself.

@TeresaW1020 - So glad you are feeling better! And a big HURRAY for tackling food tracking! ✔️🎈

@Katmary71 - I have kitten envy! 😻😻
👍🏽 As far as your weigh-in, it great job reminding yourself you are down from last week!
↕️ And weighing less often works well for some of us, just to keep from being caught up in thinking about day to day fluctuations. (I am one of those people, too!)

@UTMom81 - Great job maintaining! 👍🏽 Really! It can be so easy to drift into weight gains. So even if you aren't thrilled with the number, it shows work is happening!

@mrmcgrath - How was your Monday? Did you get in that yoga? 🧘

You inspired me to get in a stretching session the other day (Classical Stretch), and I am going to try to fit a couple more of those in this week, despite the back-to-school craziness! 🤪🏫😊

@raleighgirl09 - 👍🏽 You are doing so well sticking to your plan. And yes, movement without pain is a huge gift!
📅 Your week does sound super busy. I hope your Monday went well!

Trying diligently to back on track

You can do it!

September thread is up and running... Feel free to introduce yourself. Keep weigh ins and posts on this thread until 09/01.

Hey, all!! Just in a from a long and lovely trip to see my daughter and friends....it is good to be home. And it feels good to have ‘kitchen control’ and to step back into some kind of routine. Some things to add to the list of “Things I Learned On My Summer Vacation”:

1. Lasagna tastes JUST as good as I remembered.... (oh, boy...)
2. Sweet potatoes really are sweet!!!!! (In so many ways!)
3. Pinot noir makes it more likely that I’ll indulge in Numbers 1 and 2..... (oh, dear.)

So now that that’s behind us, off I go happily fasting, calorie and carb controlling and, logging on MFP. Will weigh in for Week 4 on Thursday morning (as scheduled) and visit again. Crossing fingers 🙏.....

Cheers!!!

Checking in...I'm not sure what is going on with my neck, but I am in so much pain and it is triggering migraine issues. I caved to my big-gun meds today. Praying it helps. It's kept me somewhat immobile and unmotivated. I hope everyone else is having a good week!

I'm so sorry to hear you're in a lot of pain. Be gentle to yourself!

@leonadixon, ouch, I sure hope your meds and getting some rest will fix your neck pain. I have suffered from terrible neck pain in the past so I totally sympathize!

@nlalamin04, as long as you keep on trying you will get to where you need to be. I know how hard it can be to get back on track once you’ve gotten off. I’m right there with you but we got this!!

@KMD1214, So glad to hear that you had a good trip! Your 1, 2, & 3 sound wonderful, but yes it’s time to get back on schedule.
