    May 7th Check-In
    Steps: 7757
    Calories: Under
    Water: Very Little!

    PW - 245
    CW - 241.2

    I said that I was going to take a break yesterday and my body forced me to as I ended up with a migraine most of the day yesterday. The only exercise I got was a nice walk with my Husband. Apart from the migraine and not drinking more that 700ml of water the rest day was good.
    I am very happy with the scale number and today my only goal is getting back on track with water, exercise will happen too but I am not going to push myself.

    I hope your migraine doesn't last long. I don't get them, but 2 of my sisters do and they seem horrific. I hope today is a better day for you!

    Yes I have prescription pills for migraines that will work within a certain window, so they typically don't last more than a day, the only problem is I lose a whole day when I do get one. Yesterday I woke up with it but I much prefer when they come later in the day, as I can usually sleep it off with meds!

    Hubby finally home after his double bypass. He very tired and I got loads of different emotions running through me. But he now on the mend and home. 😁😁😁

    So glad to hear DH is home and on the mend. Remember to take care of yourself as well!!

    Friday has been a bit rough. I had a bunch of snacks and just barely convinced myself to do my plank workout (but I diiiid do them). Then at dinner time I was planning to have a small portion but I had something more like a slightly larger than normal portion. Calories aren’t too far over my goal thankfully (about 20% over so far- now I need to brush my teeth quick so I don’t crave any more food!). I’m sure tomorrow’s weigh in will be a bit higher than this morning but still a week over week loss.

    I’m sitting on the bench this month in the cheering section, but my weigh in yesterday was a good one. From 174, I was down to 171.8. I’m starting to feel better about things. Today was dreary, and I couldn’t get outside much, but I still figured out ways to get my 10k steps in. Missed it be a few hundred yesterday, but I was just super tired yesterday, so I won’t beat myself up too much. My average for the week is still over 10k which I’m ok with.

    Steps for 5/6 = 10,095
    5/7 = 9,285

    I love Leslie Sansone’s videos as I know many of you do. I did a 10-minute one today right after a Zoom meeting for work before starting my next assignment. I was surprised how fast she got my heart rate up and got me burning calories. I highly recommend her videos especially when you can’t go outside.

    Get those teeth brushed! Lol. You are doing so welll. I don’t think I could last more than a few seconds in the plank position these days, so congrats on be consistent with those planks.

    Way to go on the weight. I think I might make a Leslie Sansone one of my workouts for next week to add some variety.
