I'm unexpectedly going out of town this weekend.. I will not be able to weigh in until Monday

I have been trying to get exercise in over the last two weeks to get the scale to move some more. Last week, I went to yoga seven times for seven hours of yoga!
This week I have done the following:
Monday-walked two miles
Tuesday-2 mile walk, 60 minutes Buti Yoga
Wednesday-2 mile walk, 60 minutes Vinyasa Flow
Thursday-2 mile walk- 60 minutes Les Miles Bodypump class at rec center tonight (strength training)
I am so sore in my arms and shoulders!
I need to start tracking more again.

February 15
Exercised: No (really bad day weather wise - min 19, max 19, drizzle from sunrise to sunset)
Tracked: No (celebration Korean BBQ dinner out to celebrate valentines day)
Budget: Maybe (did not track dinner, so do not know)

Really rough mental day today. Got through it OK though. Very nice dinner out.

My wife is just amazing. Days like today make me appreciate her even more.

30th Wedding anniversary dinner tomorrow, so probably will not track again tomorrow evening.

Rest of the month likely to be on track.

Good morning! Today we’re looking for weigh-ins from:

Too much Valentine-ing!

Hi All, well these past few days have been a roller coster. It started when I had a PreOP doct appointment. I was really excited because the Doctor wanted me to lose 10 more pounds since I saw him last in Nov, I lost 15, Yay me, until I jump on his scale and its showed that I only dropped 5. I noticed his scale was off, that the pointer wasn't on 0 it looked like more like 3. But i couldn't see it because I wasn't able to make out the numbers. He called me and asked me to drop 5 more pounds, before surgery. Anyway what a blow, I showed him from my scale's app that I did lose the 15 pounds. He was good with those numbers from my scale and told me I was doing a really nice job. But it was too late, all I wanted to do was cry. I have been working sooo hard to drop this weight and that fast I wanted to run to McDonalds and buy a Big Mac and have a pity party for myself. (I DIDN'T) Friday I found myself very depressed about losing weight, it's really starting to take a toll on me. With Friday night being Valentines we decided to stay home with Friends and make a really nice dinner. So I decided not to worry about calories, sugar , fat or anything. Yes I did indulge and ate more than I do, especially the chocolate. Then comes Saturday morning and nothing, the scale didn't move. I didn't expect it to but I did eat well all week and for not watching on one night, I shouldn't be surprised. I wish I wasn't so hard on myself. I Know it was only one night and it could be water weight but like everyone else you still want the scale to move downward. I started this journey Jan 2019 and I have lost 93 pounds I should be proud but I also get down on myself for not losing every week. Trust me I know that I'm doing really good and that everyone is noticing but I can't seem to take pride in what I have achieved so far. I feel like I'm stuck in mud and can't move. My goal is to be down 120 pounds by the end of June, for my Sons wedding. I hope I can do it, I just need to get out of my own head.

I am having surgery next week so I will not be weighing for a few week starting after this Saturday. Issues with the weight loss I need to fix with surgery. I am scared and excited at the same time. But more scared. I will try to check in during the weeks and catch up with all of your posts.

Have a really great week. Thanks for letting me vent.

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? recumbent bike, 20 minutes
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

@matthewsfive, Vera, so sorry to hear your disappointment with the doctor's visit. Please be kind to yourself. You have done an amazing job!! We wish you the very best in the surgery and recovery. Looking forward to hearing from you during your recovery.

@matthewsfive. Sorry to hear about the issue with the doctors scale and how it affected you. I am glad you managed to get it sorted out and that the surgery is going ahead.

Its' OK to be scared. Change is scary. No surgery is without risk, however the reward is usually more than worth the risk (doctors tend not to be prepared proceed unless this is the case).

Wishing you all the best and a quick recovery after surgery.

Good morning! Today we’re looking for weigh-ins from:
