    HW: 257.5 (September 30)

    Well it’s not a lot for this week but considering I was at my highest weight exactly 1 month ago at 257.3 -I have lost 11 pounds. I have taken action-which was my first goal. Slowly I have introduced some lasting changes. First, have been alcohol free for 1 month. I did start an injection medication (Saxenda) for weight loss due to health concerns (take it now short term or later...forever). And frankly the two didn’t mix-It’s a pretty invasive step and I can’t do that and then drink-just not right and probably harmful. Next, I purchased all of my favourite vitamins -I like natural things like garlic, magnesium, collagen, astragalus, iodine, selenium, ashwagandha, copper, zinc, D3, K2, chlorella...and I’m not done..just ran out of money. I reengaged with this app and this joined this amazing group. Then I overhauled groceries and began some meal planning (still working on this. But crock pots and whole foods and salads -all things I love anyway. Now increased & consistent water intake. My next stage is exercise-I hurt and I am so busy at work-stay late and commute -but you know how people say “I don’t have time for a boyfriend”....until they meet someone and “poof” they find time-I’m going to put some thought around a plan and ramp up.....ideas, suggestions or successes are welcome!!

    Great loss! You are doing great!

    Goals/comments so laid off my workouts this week dye to 1st week at aquatherapy and therapists wasn't sure if I'd have lasting affects. As you know the water takes off 3/4 of your weight so you feel light weight while in the pool but it all comes back when you get out of the pool. But I had 2 great workouts this week. Will continue my regimen on Sunday

    Comments: I thought this last week was going to be a wash, but to my surprise, it didn't turn out to be tooooo bad.

    I've been focusing on the behaviors rather than the numbers. I had a moment of clarity last weekend. I think I might just be a food addict. So I started a "bullet" journal of sorts so that I could better control my day, plan and then review how that plan actually worked for my day. I'm starting to finally feel like I might be regaining control. It's been a tough few months for me but I need to regain that control and I **think** I'm getting there. It's weird how the extra structure has really been helping me...
