A new low🤩 I have an appointment with a health coach on Tuesday so I hope to get off this merry-go-round of a plateau for good!

You did well this week. I think you have broke through your plateau. What do you think has helped you get through the plateau?

I’m hoping this is it. I started looking into a health coach last week and it got me motivated again. I meet with her on Tuesday and I’m really excited to learn about macros and having someone looking over my logs and teaching me what changes I need to make.

Thursday’s check in
Calories: over
Exercise: none
Water: ✅
Steps: 4,430
Sleep: No
DBF: 0

Yesterday I had good news on 2 fronts. I had a doctors appointment on Wednesday and I asked for help with my binge eating. On Wednesday I have an appointment with a dietitian that has experience in eating disorders. I do have one with my regular dietitian next week also so I may end up postponing that one. At physio yesterday I was given the go ahead to start lifting weights with some restrictions if my cortisone shot works today. He also told me riding a stationary bike is good for nerve damage. I am off to see the rheumatologist at 10:30 so cross your fingers that the cortisone works. Today the medication for my nerve pain is doubled. So far the pain has not changed in my leg but I am cautiously optimistic that better days are ahead.

It’s FriYAY! So have a super start to the weekend.

Goals this week
1. No binge eating/late night snacking
2. Sleep at least 7.5 hours
3. Stay within maintenance calories

I’m excited for you to start with the new dietician and I hope the med changes help.

I hope so too! It’s been a bad night for pain. I haven’t slept yet.

You still had a loss so great job staying in the green. Hey, the 80’s was a great decade. 😂 Seriously, you are doing great. You are consistent and determined. That will get you far. [/b]

Ahah, I love the 80's as well, but when that thing is in the scale, it just don't go back to the 70's no matter what

Thanks Linda for all your support, this group has indeed helped me a lot in keeping myself accountable! It's been great hanging in here you're doing a great job!

Exercise: back/biceps strength workout and 2 hour beach walk

Yesterday I slept in after going out the night before since I knew I would have time to do my strength workout later in the day. I did another 2 hour beach walk with my friend and her dog since it has been so beautiful. This week it goes back to fall weather and the tides won’t be in my favor. I have been tracking everything, I just really need to work on eating less of my calories earned from exercise. I wish I could shut off that feature.

Friday night pizza and candy binge ruined my week's work. I also took a rest day yesterday, so it was a very bad combo to end my week. Today is a new start though. I will need to focus more on controlling my food. It's been really hard. I find that the more news I watch the more nervous, anxious and depressed it makes me and then I dive into the pantry and eat.

What a week it has been! I forgot to take my Vitamin D prescription 2 weeks in a row and I TOTALLY felt it. I mean going through emotions, feeling weak, feeling tired, and totally not myself. Still managed to work both jobs and maintain my school work (Got a 96% in my first BSN class so I am stoked!) but everything else kinda took a back seat. I have not stepped foot on a scale or in a gym in almost 2 weeks. Not happy about that, but I needed to take a step back and distress before I had a meltdown. As of tomorrow, I am back on track! Weighing in and the morning (even though I am scared! Lol)

I don't know how to explain my eating habits this past week or so. Like there has definitely been some binging but I have had some crazy patient loads so I have definitely stayed active so I don't know if I am more hungry because of the activity level or because I am just having an "off" week. Anyhow, I am disappointed in myself but beating myself up won't change anything so might as well just move ahead.

Going to make some sausage egg and cheese breakfast wraps since I work every day until November 4th starting Monday. Also going to air fry some chicken and probably make a chicken divan for me and the kids tomorrow. I will probably stir up some other ideas as well.

One thing I have done is pacify my emotions with some therapeutic shopping! I have pretty much ordered all brand new Christmas decor and started with gifts as well. Going to be a great Christmas now that I am more financially able. I have also decided to do some family Christmas photos this year so more motivation for getting this bloat off!

Anyhow, I will definitely check-in in the morning but for now here are my Fitbit steps for the last couple of weeks! (I was bad about keeping my Fitbit charged too! )

I decided to workout six days this week like the schedule calls for but I will likely take today to rest my knee. I have been keeping up with the exercises given by ortho. The rest of my steps came from cleaning my house. I was surprised to see the scale down this am since I ate out Thursday and last night and did take out Friday. I have been trying to make smart decisions during the day to offset the evening meal. Fingers crossed for another loss this week.
