I heard it was snowing!! 😜Last Saturday I was out in the yard, mowing, planting flowers and I had the doors of the barn open riding my exercise bike in the breeze. Today? The temp dropped to low 30s to 40s, it was snowing earlier. It's hard to recognize spring but I am really trying to stay up and keep with my program.
Is the cold supposed to last or is it just a quick front?
Yes! Heat blasting. Hopefully nice for good long walk tomorrow.0 -
This weekend is challenging. Mothers day is hard - lost my mum 2 years ago and I’ve eaten my feelings few times lastnight and today😩
Not walking for two days really doesn’t motivate me to eat well either, so back at that in the morning.1 -

So sorry, gidday, for the loss of your mum. xxoo
That is the hardest loss in the world. Maybe something that might work is to turn it around and say that you are going to take this journey in honor of her. It might help you to get control of those feelings to eat (believe me I know what they are) and redirect them into using that power for the good of YOU! Hoping your day is full of love. 1 -
Happy Mother's Day to the moms of all kinds. My numbers for my first week are headed in the right direction. I had a 2.4 loss which dropped to a 1.8. by this morning. A little bummed but still a loss. Bodies are so weird. I had some pretzel sticks last night and I am sure that played a role. As I said in another group I am in, I think what is helping for me overall is cutting back on bread and pasta, my two great loves in life in the food world. I also tried a protein shake a couple of days at lunch time that I really liked and kept me very full in-between meals. Who knows what it was. I will try again this week and need to up my activity level. I'm determined to do this.
SW- 244.6 lbs (5/4)
CW- 242.8 lbs (5/11)
GW by June 30th- 229 or less
Total weight lost- 1.8 lbs

I had the same issue. Mother's day set me back but I did have a good one so I can't be mad. I forgot to weigh myself that morning so I messed that up too and of course this morning was a gain because I did too much yesterday lol. So I'm just going to document my next weigh in on Sunday. Good luck to all this week.0 -

Happy late mommy day to everyone! 🥰
Keep drinking your water! I didn’t do very well on my late night snacking, so I am going to keep doing nothing after 8.
This weeks non scale challenge is no fast or fried foods this week!2 -
Starting out my Monday with a bang!! Our family had to be swabbed for Covid today due to my adult daughters test coming back positive (she doesn’t live here) but we’ve had contact- minimal until yesterday...
We are (5) asymptomatic.. praying for negative results. The win is I think the anxiety is doing the opposite of wanting to eat so that’s a plus lol😂.

I hope all test come back negative and your daughter remains asymptomatic.2 -
Yesterday wasn’t the best. The kids and hubby made me pancakes and bacon for breakfast and ordered Mexican for dinner. I kept my portions reasonable but did not dare step on the scale this morning.0
