Up 3 lbs or so.
Well, I was rolling along. This is what happens, when you really clean house, and move furniture around. Here is the really odd thing, I do not remember seeing any type of spiders in our house literally in months.
But on Wednesday at somepoint in late morning, I got bit twice it seems. That is what the Dr. in Urgent care stated he could see two sets of fang marks. I think it is due to antibiotics, and a few other issues associated with all of this. And hopefully can get back off by end of month. Grumble Grumble.

Hi. I'm Trina. 54 and 5'4"
I'm working on losing the last 10 pounds and starting maintenance. I was 7 pounds closer before the holidays, but I am reminded that this is a journey that goes on, as opposed to one that ends at a destination! So let's continue to build those life long good habits and to set our sights on the road ahead, not the endpoint!

Too many days over calorie goal. I need to get more control and make sure I'm hitting my protein goal because then it is easier for me to stay in a deficit. When I don't eat enough protein is when I feel like I want to eat all the things.6 -

Not destined to eat like normal people, but I'm okay with that, willing to put in the work.3 -

After hitting my 5lb goal EVERY month for a year and then plateauing for 4 months, seeing this slow steady drop is both awesome to see it move and frustrating to see it move so slow!! I would really, really, really like to get to 145 this month.5 -

Had a good week overall! My trainer had me add in some additional complex carbs and I have more energy and feel fuller and happier. I was originally a bit nervous as I've been barely eating any carbs for months but I really do feel great and still am down.

At 57 the weight comes off so slowly. I was hoping to be ten pounds less by the end of the month but I'll take what I can get. I have been rehabbing my 90 year old Dad after ankle surgery. It is AMAZING what the body can be trained to do - even at 90. I have him pumping iron! I packed all my food and stuck to the plan. Not able to exercise as much as I am accustomed to but I was okay with that given all that was going on. Another week to go - let's GO!
