    September goals:

    More walking! Kids had a lot of appointments last week so I only made it for one long walk (I’m trying to go after they get on the bus before it gets too hot)

    Get physical therapy. I have an old knee injury (severed my ACL 8 years ago in October) and over the years orthos have basically shrugged and said nothing can be done because I’m not an athlete 🙄. Current ortho has offered PT in the hopes that strengthening will help stabilize. I’d like stability back—I was very active before the injury and have slowly lost that mobility until I can barely make it through a grocery trip 😭

    Currently at 291, would like to see 285 at September’s end :)
  • I am very early in my journey. I am trying to start it the right way this time and start to tackle small goals at a time. So I am working on maintaining, and not gaining, any weight, tracking all my food, drinking water, and walking three times per week.

    I started tracking as a way to stabilize my blood sugar so I could see what types of food kept it from spiking. Weight loss has been a side effect of that 🙂

    I had a rough few weeks. I'm still down 13 pounds but I've been in a hold. My goal for the remainder of the month is to get myself back on track 👍

    The last few have been rough here, too. I held steady for a bit, which was fantastic because eating was off and I thought for sure I'd gain. But I tried to stick with my carb and calorie goals even when grabbing takeout and I managed to maintain 😊
