@sleepymom5 - beautiful daughters and beautiful dress
Sorry I haven't been checking in but been busy. House went on the market last Thursday and have been busy with showings. We had an offer last night and apparently another one is coming in today. Looks like I can move from keeping a super clean house to packing Poor Lucy with all the strangers coming into her house. We came home on Saturday and baby was locked upstairs. Luckily no "accidents"
Yesterday I started to get back on track. I've been sloppy with dairy and sugar but time to stop it.
Have a great day everyone!!4 -

Feeling much better today! My husband and I took our younger boy for a medical appointment this morning. Everything is just fine & he is healthy. After we dropped him at school, we talked about taking more time to stop and express gratitude for our blessings, like health. We both have a tendency to focus on life’s problems & trying to solve them. It was a nice reminder to be grateful for all that we have.
@jedaschultz -Outstanding loss, congratulations!!
@carlsoda - Best of luck with the offers, hope it all goes well!!
@sleepymom5 - So glad you had a great weekend! You, your daughters and your soon to be daughter-in-law are all beautiful! I love the dress and you look great in it! I think we are around the same age and I gotta say, you have lovely skin! Tell us your secrets (aside from genetics)!? Thanks for sharing the photos!
@CassieGetsFit2013 - Wish you all the best in rehab and sending you a big hug. We are here for you whenever you need us!2 -

Checking in. It has been a slow day. A few of you have mentioned trouble sleeping. My doctor has worked with me and I generally can fall asleep and return to sleep after bathroom trips in the middle of the night. All of that has ended and I am voraciously hungry. This has slowly changed since I started a new med for anxiety. I left my Dr. a message and explained I am stopping the med with her permission.
I spent decades getting up between 2 and 3 and not being able to get back to sleep. It started in college and it is a horrible feeling.
I am excited at the thought that I may be able to get my hunger under control again and sleep better.
@sleepymom5 Your pictures of you and your daughters, and daughter in law, are so beautiful! You look so young!
@CassieGetsFit2013 Good luck!2 -
I don’t really have addictive food items like chips, cookies, ritz crackers and buffalo pretzels. But...this weekend I created a carmelized apple cinnamon French toast casserole. OMG...I could not stop eating it. Had 2 servings for breakfast and a serving for dinner. With little vegan maple sausages on the side. Melted vegan butter, maple syrup drizzled (ok poured) over top...I was in heaven and hell. It got me. There was a smidge leftover. I demolished that at lunch today. It was soooooo good and I was soooo bad. I’m planning on making a pumpkin version. I adore custardy things and never thought I could enjoy that again. But the recipe was a success. Diet...not so much.3

@sleepymom5 I love your flower dress - my favourite style
I have a friend/neighbour, she is lovely, loves to cook. Ever since she found out that I am trying to lose weight, it feels like she is sabotaging my efforts. Ex: she knows I looove bread and anything related. Today she sent me this, with a message: come over if you want
It's freshly homemade pretzels 😳😳😳
I had to really fight with myself to finally say: thanks, but I'll pass.

I need to run. I have PT. Good day yesterday. I have another busy day today. PT first, then trying my dress on for my sister in law and then cleaning. I think I may ride the bike before cleaning though...I will check in later. Have a great day everyone!
@carlsoda I can't believe how quickly everything is coming together! I know that dairy starts messing with you after a while. Hopefully you are back on track. It is a lot to think about but you will be much happier when things settle back down if you followed your plan. I am so excited for you!
@jedaschultz Awesome loss! I am glad you had a great week! I am with you, a loss is very motivating!
@Cafelelia I am glad you are feeling better and your son had a good checkup. Hopefully everyone is feeling better now. I also need to take more time to count my blessing. And thank you, I am lucky with my skin but it is starting to show my age now Lol! I didn't forget about that challenge, I haven't had time to write it up.
@Barbb1557 That was a fluke for me Sunday night. I am usually able to fall right asleep and like you, go back to sleep after the bathroom brakes. It is a horrible feeling. Are you going to take something else for anxiety or see how it goes?
@Mrsbell8well That sounds so yummy! I can see why it would be hard to stop at a serving.
@amsandos Maintaining isn't bad and you didn't gain. Sounds like you have a good plan for the week. Let's do this!!
@lennoncpa Lol! Me neither until she said it on the podcast. If it is something you shouldn't be eating, you are really wasting it even if you are eating it.
@gottagetthisdown Hope all is going well. Are you still seeing the nutritionist? Remember to check in if you need us, sometimes checking in keeps people on track.
@GingerPwr That is absolutely a win!! Awesome restraint there my friend!
@hope002 Your workouts just amaze me. You are doing awesome! Sometimes it does seem like people are trying to ruin your efforts. You handled it beautifully! Give yourself a pat on the back. Thanks for the compliment on the dress, I loved it too. When I was trying it on I was hoping it would fit.
@phoebe112476 Fantastic loss my friend!2 -
Good morning All, I hope you all are doing well. Yesterday I started seeing a new nutritionist because the other one is out on maternity leave. We went over some of my goals and the progress I have made so far since seeing a nutritionist. She wants me to stay away from the scale she says it is not doing anything but stressing me out. I need to focus more on my consistency, eating habits, and the way I feel and not so much the number on the scale. Therefore, this will be my last month in the group, I will be donating my scale and focusing on consistent good habits and the change will come.6

Exciting night last night..we had a bidding war going on for our house. Someone came in and offered almost 10K over our asking price but in the end we went with the person that is putting 60% down with a conventional mortgage and an October 22nd closing date. He's moving to Minnesota from Louisiana. Hope he has some sort of concept how cold and snowy it gets here! We always play it safe over money, this one has a higher change of closing properly
Food wise yesterday was good, we even went to Culvers for dinner and didn't have their frozen custard even though I L O V E it! Wasn't on my plan so didn't eat it! I did have diet pepsi though
Today's plan is written down but I am tired today so I'll need to be super careful.
Hope everyone has an amazing Tuesday!!6 -

Checking in
Yesterday I was on track with food but felt very hungry.
Today has been really good including a workout with my trainer. We started working on a machine where you pull yourself up with weighted assistance. The last time I used the machine I weighed 135, at 234 it is a whole other experience. John was so good to me, we worked on 2 at a time for 3 rounds of 6. You can also do 'dips' and I was able to do 3 rounds of 12. Huge success and a machine I will use every time I go to the gym because it will get easier as I become stronger and weigh less and it will be something tangible like smaller jeans :-)
my doc for anxiety is so slow to give me new meds, it is very frustrating. Once I am off the Ability for 2 weeks I will push harder. It was harder taking off my ring today after stopping the hctz, water pill. Hopefully things will even out. I am nervous about my weigh in tomorrow.
@Hope002 those pretzels, yikes they look so yummy. Could there be a serving of passive aggressiveness from your neighbor?
GingerPwr Shot score on avoiding the cupcakes A very solid victory! Congratulations!1
