    Weigh in day 151.8
    Slightly sabotaged a better result by eating far too much of a trial run of our wedding cake.
    May as well aim to get rid of 1.9lbs this week and hit the 140s-psychologically that will feel good.

    Exercise: yes
    Outdoor walk

    @SandSea55 Always difficult when we’re out of our normal routine. Important thing is to get back on plan after they leave. I’m sure you can do it.

    @petrocoetsee :D I can totally understand - something about Sunday’s just makes me want to be lazy. I did manage to do some meal prep and actually tracked my food which is a first for a Sunday for me.

    Missing from Sunday - @Mandy5379, @RogueBear1, @sunshibe81

    Upcoming for Monday - @gboles79, @heaz10, @lozenger1984, @MelsLeanDream, @Shortgirlrunning , @ThunderGodKing

    For the new members, just post your current weight so that we can update the spreadsheet.

    Hello to my fellow big but theorists! Just a quick introduction as I am out and about. My name is Herb been on MFP a few months now I’ve got the exercise down but my diet has been a big struggle. I’m from Southwest Iowa, fall is here holidays are coming and I really want to get ahead so maybe this season I will actually lose weight. I do love pumpkin pie and eggnog the struggle is real😆😎

    I just found out a couple of years ago that pumpkin pie can be so delicious...and there is all the other pie too.

    Weigh-In Day: Monday (11/4)
    Previous Weight: 153
    Today’s Weight: 150.5

    A good chunk of that is losing the bloat from TOM. Happy to see the drop though because the bloating was really frustrating me!

    At least you have a great reason for overindulging. Mine was pure glutony.

    I have updated the spreadsheet to incorporate the food and exercise challenge. It seems to always be a work in progress, but I hope it is easy to navigate. Enter "1" if completed food, or "0" if you didnt. For the exercise challenge, only put in 30 for minutes, even if you exercised for longer. Below is a screenshot of how I set up the tracking, and I have a "key" of what the emojis mean at the top of the sheet.

    Tracked: yes
    Under: yes
    Exercise: yes
    Steps: 12,314
    Water: 113.8
    Food: yes stayed on plan
    Exercise: yes, 30 minutes bike

    Today I managed to meet all goals despite November 4th being a tough day for me. Today marks 10 years since my father passed away, but I am staying focused. I had a lot of activity (moving a bunch of boxes, pallets, etc) at work, and just finished the bike. I am going to feel it tomorrow as this was one of the roughest(physically) days for me at work!
