It was lower even, but yesterday was a salt heavy sort of day. I went out for lunch and dinner. =P8 -
And now that I've been out shopping and returned, an NSV: size 10 jeans!!
I did it, I achieved a smaller pant size than I was able to wear even as a teen.
Even better, the jeans were 50% off. XD12 -

@jugar excuse my ignorance but what is TRX?
It's a cool exercise gadget that is basically 2 straps with handles on the ends hanging down from the ceiling (or a door). You get to look silly like this -
Or fabulous like this -
It was invented by some pumped up military guy so that the troops would not get out of shape when out somewhere with no equipment. Luckily, it is really easy to adjust the difficulty down to normal mortals level!

I AM SO IMPRESSED!!! You all are on fire. So many good losses reported today!
I have been avoiding being inside on line today - it is super warm and gorgeous out. It sure feels good after a week of near freezing temperatures and several nights of frost. The colours are at their peak too. This is the view while I am doing dishes.

@Terytha that is so awesome - what a great feeling in the new jeans I'll bet.
@jugar oh, that's a beautiful view - and I'll bet it's quiet too, only birds and wind...I yearn for quiet.
I'm battling the demons tonight but chose lemonade over wine and a satisfying quinoa bowl over potato chips. Now I'd best run to bed before the demons keep whispering in my ears....4 -

Haven't had this many steps in 1 week since May, I definitely felt more inspired and motivated to move 😊
Yesterday I went with friends to the Great Lakes Crossing Outlets and managed to walk out with only 4 shopping bags lol. We also had yummy dinner at a bistro, I had a mushroom & steak tips appetizer with Burrata caprese. Oh it was so good and much healthier than the burgers and fries my companions were eating 😂. Admittedly I did enjoy 2 cocktails, so I will be drinking a lot of water today and tomorrow. Things at work and home have been challenging and I'm glad to have been able to get away for a day.
It sounds like a lot of us have been having a tough time, whether with food choices or health battles or stress and anxiety. If nothing else we are blessed to have this group that we can share our struggles with.
Also congrats to our team for progress made! Especially @KellyBgetsfit, I know you've been having a battle with the scale lately. Yay for a week won!
As for goals to finish up the year... Honestly I need to not gain weight over the holidays. I struggle from November to January every year and reallllllly don't want that again.
