Saturday weigh in
Week 5
PW 191.8
CW 192.4 This seems to want to be my set point. Hey body, you are not at maintenance yet!!
LTD 31.1
Really off week for me. Had little interest in logging. Got in 4 days with exercise. Didn’t get to see my son again. 😢 Had a big fight with my grown daughter. 😢 Just worked with my husband on yard work for 2 1/2 hours. I’m exhausted and @jugar I earned my shower like none other. 🚿
Hope I can make August better than the last few months and find my motivation to get this weight moving downward again.
Hugs to all my fellow sufferers and off trackers. We are here and that’s important. @evangsimmons170 we are not going down that drain. Just circling. I’m not sure what the recovery analogy is but let’s do it.
Let’s make August awesome. 🙏🏼🎉
@micki48
I feel like we have had the same week, for me its been a few weeks. Here's to restarting and kicking July out in the butt and saying HELLO to August.1 -
@eggfreak I totally agree with you about putting July behind us! I downloaded one of my 30-day challenge charts from chartyourgoals.com and decided that August 1-30 would be my 30-day Calorie Deficit Challenge. I'm committing (again) to having a calorie deficit greater than 100 each day this month. I realize that having a deficit will mean that either I eat less or exercise more and that I have to continue logging everything I eat. Doing nothing won't create a deficit. So something's gotta give this month!
@evelynladams527 Good luck on staying within your calorie budget this month too!
@micki48 First, I hope you and your daughter were able to resolve your differences from the fight you had. I also hope you get to see your son soon. Regarding the opposite analogy about my frustrated metaphor of circling the drain....I can't really think of one. However, I do know that sometimes we have to let go of our old habits and ways of thinking before we can fully adopt a new way of living and thinking. As they say, if we want different results, we have to do something different.

Of course! You are stuck with us
But.... What is your weigh-in for today?

@evangsimmons170 Oh I LOVE the goal to focus on having just 100 calorie deficit. It's simple, easy to track and you can make adjustments throughout the day to stay on track! You're a genius and I'm so inspired by you I will join you and chart as well.2

Thanks for the encouragement, @conleywoods. I haven't been feeling too inspirational lately, but I'm glad I was able to provide a spark.
I know I ultimately should aim for a 500 calorie deficit each day in order to lose a pound a week, but I've gotta start somewhere, right? It's the whole 'journey of a thousand miles...' thing. LOL See y'all on the August thread!

Oooo! Cool form! I'll think about what I can do. I like the visual accountability & progress.2 -
Friday and Saturday ended up being good days, both for food intake and exercise - both days I did XBX and got in a nice evening walk. So good-bye to July and on to August! I truly do not know where the time goes...3

I’m not able to weigh in this week because there’s no scale available here. Could you please add my weigh in as last week?
I should see a scale by next Tuesday.1 -
