Daily Post October 8
Tracked Yes
Under Calorie Yes
Water 128oz
Steps 9647
Exercise 60 min walk
My brother was over yesterday. After I took my son to school, both girls and himself took a nap so I went for a walk by myself.
I'm thinking with my bigger loss last week that I probably won't have that great of a loss at weigh in tomorrow. I'll be happy with about anything, I just don't want to see a gain. We will see what happens.
I have a little goal of being under 200lbs by the end of the year. That might be a little ambitious with the holidays coming up but every year I feel like I gain over the holidays so I'm hoping the goal will help me keep my eating in check.

Weigh In Day: Friday
PW (Previous Weight): 189.3

LTD (Loss to Date): 18
The see-saw landed on the downside for weigh-in day and a new low. I feel like I am on a rollercoaster. I weighed myself, no lie, six times this morning and even saw 188.9 twice. I hope this is my plateau breakthrough but I’m not doing the happy dance just yet.
Steps this week:
10/3: 7607
10/4: 8649
10/5: 8144
10/6: 7967
10/7: 6914
10/8: 9132
Congrats on the loss! Fingers crossed 🤞 that this is the end of your plateau.Megan_smartiepants1970 wrote: »Megan_Smartiepants1970

That must of been a nice treat to get a mini break to do your walk. I think your goal is doable. It is a little less than 1.5 pounds a week. With your determination I know you will do it.0 -
Yay! It’s the weekend. It’s Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada. (Am I the only Canadian in the group?) What do you have planned?1

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 I would like having Thanksgiving in October instead of the end of November. That gives you time to detox before Christmas.1 -
How's my favorite team doing?
Weekly weight in!
Keeping a steady rhythm with a controlled cheat day on Saturday or Sunday.
On track for this year objective, which is to reach 75Kg / 165 lbs by the end of the year.

@Z10Rtza - I am sorry that you got such bad news. I can’t imagine dealing with that. What country do you live in? Are you able to claim disability?
@lindamtuck - yes, I do weigh everything. I started the C25K to help shake things up. I feel like maybe my calories are too low. A few times a week, I am less than 1000 and add fake calories. I am making an effort to eat 1200 calories/day to see what happens with that. Also, I am not syncing steps at all which is why I was surprised that it was there. I give up on that. I hope your ultrasound comes back with some answers and possible solutions for your pain
@AmyG1982 - fantastic loss!
I live in Belgium. Apparently I'm fu**ed up enough to not be able to work in many things but not enough to ask for a disability0 -
I know this exact feeling! I will hope with you and we can do the happy dance together anyway!Username: azkunk

Happy Thanks Giving. Not something we celebrate here.
Cant wait to visit Canada next year. Flights booked. Beautiful Country1 -
really proud of myself today. 3 hrs drive to Scotland and still managed to get in 10579 steps and stay within my calories.
Lovely day at Falkirk Wheel.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving (we have our USA version next month)--I'd rather have it in October like @azkunk said, gives you a chance to recover from pumpkin pie and stuffing. LOL

@lindamtuck2018 and @Megan_smartiepants1970
After talking with someone and giving it some more thought, I've decided to stay in the group challenge . I really need to stay as focused as I can, and. I just don't know for sure if I can be here every day, but I'll try. Don't want to let my health problems get in the way of me losing weight.
Yesterday, was a bad day and I over ate a lot so I think I'll gain and not lose weight, when I weigh in the morning.4 -

Exercise: 10 rounds upper body workout
Yesterday was a good day, kids were in school so I had the day to myself and was able to meet some of my coworkers for lunch. I miss them so much, hit six months of being furloughed this week. We had lunch out and was able to find entries in MFP but came home and verified nutritional info online. MFP entries I found were half right.0
