    Weigh in Wednesday:
    PW: 152.0
    CW: 153.4

    Well, this is not the way to go. But I'm having stomach issues and not sure WTH is going on w/my digestive system- I feel bloated and upset; hopefully, this works itself out - I have been consistent with my workouts and tracking what I'm eating-maybe too many veggies-my stomach doesn't take kindly to having too much fiber intake.

    Sorry☹

    No apologies!!! Take care of yourself!!!! Try some magnesium citrate. It works wonders for me for occasional bloat and to get things moving again. I like the gummies because I’m a child and can’t take a real vitamin

    I 2nd the gummies and you can usually find them on Amazon for a BOGO deal. The taste is kinda tart to me but def help with some bloating.

    Thanks b/c I have not heard of those before!! Interesting....and thank you for the support-it means alot 😘

    Good morning crew!!!

    @hipari alluded to Yesterday’s train wreck above. She is absolutely right, this is not the forum to air political beliefs, grievances, or anything else. Please keep your political thoughts to those forums.

    However, it is very fair to say “I had a stressful day today and binged.” Considering probably +75% of us are in the US, we will understand.

    Let’s all just keep it nice!!!

    Thank you!!

    So far I've been on-track with my calories this week! I want to weigh myself early, but I told myself I'd limit myself to once a week so I didn't worry too much about the daily flux. Staying strong, and reading all your guys posts for inspiration! <3

    I totally support your choice to weigh once a week. I’m the other extreme. I weigh every day. I’ve been on the journey for a while and have embraced the fluctuations.

    Yep, I’m a nerd and have a spreadsheet for that, too!!!! My goal for myself was to be under 170 for the week by my Saturday weigh in... I was 169.8 this am. Yay me!!!

    The bottom line is, do what makes YOU feel comfortable!! You got this and we are here to cheer you on!!!

    Well, the past two days have been a dumpster fire. Tuesday was a lot of random snacking, but I decided to excuse that and Wednesday as getting rid of last of the Christmas chocolate. Thought I was done with the munchies for the day/week on Wednesday night, until my husband bought a giant chocolate bar for some reason and half an hour later the news exploded. I stress ate almost the entire chocolate bar. Not good. Also didn't make it to bed until 2AM as I doomscrolled all possible news outlets and was way too wound up to sleep. Great start to the workday today.

    (just to make sure: I have no intention of discussing politics here, this is merely about my stupid reaction to said politics and events)

    We are on the same track, from the Christmas candy to the doomscrolling after bedtime. My son moved to DC in September so once I heard the news I was naturally very concerned. Fortunately he doesn’t live very near the Capitol, but he does live near some hotels and I worried things would get tense after curfew. Basically, my productivity for the day went out the window after lunch. So I got up this morning to another one pound gain and this is just not acceptable. Plus, we are going to Houston to celebrate my daughter’s birthday this weekend so that’s basically three days of eating out and around 9 hours sitting in the car over the weekend. I’ve just gotta keep stable over the weekend and my January 1 will start on Monday.

    Yesterday I kept on track, thankfully, but mentally and emotionally exhausted from yesterday-too much☹ I watched it too much....shame on me so tuning it out today to keep my sanity.
    I was soooooo exhausted I debated on cancelling my barre class @ 2AM b/c it was 4 hours before my class; otherwise, I'm charged $15 for cancelling less than 4 hours.....BUT I WENT!!!
    That makes 6 days in a row for barre😘

    Hi everyone. I've had a mixed week so far with work and stuff but so far I've managed to keep a 400 - 500 calorie defecit daily, so I'm hoping it will be OK on Sunday (weigh - in day for me)
    I weigh daily and I'm cool with fluctuations, so no dramas with that.
    I hope you guys are having a good day wherever you are 👍

    NSV I realized how much my mother affects me and now I am more aware of the trigger and it won't be as much of a struggle!! Getting it out is helping!! Now focus on me and just let it gooooooooooooooo

    I’m with you on this one -I know it’s a trigger -but it’s still a struggle. I think the worst part is knowing that it impacts me mentally and therefore physically-so the more I try to make that healthy divide -the guilt comes -I recently stumbled on “Peg Streep” on Facebook-and while it doesn’t 100% all apply to me -I found some solace in the knowledge.

    Hi everyone.
    Today has been a good day. I got 9hs sleep last night, completed work tasks, did my flexibility/mobility movements and went out for 2 short walks. Food logged and I'm now relaxing with my feet up (it's gone 8pm here).
    Wherever you are and whatever your day brings, I hope it is all good for you. :)

    Not watching to much TV now and days. I'm trying to not let all the "chaos" stress me out. Stress causes me to eat. I started crocheting again. I'm making a pullover sweater for myself - one size smaller. It keeps my hands and mind busy and keeps me motivated. Let's see what next week brings.

    I am nothing if not consistent! 😂 If I can get through this weekend and restock my groceries on Monday I should be getting back on track.
