So weight is up but body comp is down. I've been working on pull ups and dips every other day to increase upper body strength and those numbers are increasing, so I am going to put this week (cautiously) in the win column.
Getting stronger is a definitely a win. Getting stronger eating at a deficit is hard!3 -

0.8lbs down this week. There were a couple of days where I ate too much. I'll make an effort to eat better this week. Biscuits (cookies) are my downfall. I have a son and he loves his biscuits, that's why I have them in the house. This week I'll buy less so there's less for me to be tempted by. Must...resist!2 -

It's a challenge with little ones in the house. Count that as a win. Good 👍1 -

I'm not losing much weight
Losing motivation to diet, some days I constantly look for food to eat, especially when I'm doing mentally demanding work. One good thing I did was going to the gym though. Goal of this week is to develop a better relationship with food -- not craving them all the time.

Goals for this week: Exercise. Log my food. Drink more water. Cook more veggie meals. Quit yoga and see how my back feels. Try to get my back back on track. Went to yoga and not sure if that or twisting in my sleep caused my back issues but dang it hurts. No desire to run. And appetite not great so the loss is probably false.

Wow, on Friday, 10/25 I was 2 pounds lighter than my weigh in today and it was due to a dinner party that I attended on Saturday. To prepare, I did a long workout on Saturday morning and save my calories for the dinner. So telling how mindless eating can really affect fitness and weight loss goals. I say fitness because I did eat some empty calories... Oh well, one must live and carry on! Have a great week everyone...2 -
@bearly63 - feel better, hard to keep your wits about you when in pain... I hope relief can be had!
@spayne444 - Welcome, I joined late as well, nice to have company to weigh in till the end of the year.

“Life loves to be taken by the lapel and told: ”I’m with you kid. Let’s go.” – Maya Angelou
