Every time I feel like giving up, the positivity from this group makes me feel better and to keep pushing. And this is honestly what I needed. I don’t have a lot of encouragement at home, just in this group.

So thank you to everyone who has never given up on me and see the potential in me that I sometimes don’t see myself💗

@rawrxamberx I am so glad that you are finding this group helpful; I am sorry that you are not finding the kind of support you are looking for at home. The more you emphasize your healthy lifestyle, the more your family sees you "working the program" and sees how important it is to you and how determined you are to succeed, the more they will, hopefully, come around to being the support system that you need. In other words, sometimes you have to help yourself before others will offer up their assistance. And as long as YOU never give up on YOU, then you will succeed!

We had no Winners this week, but Tami and Kia Ora each did put in a Notable Effort.

There is not really the appetite for this Challenge like there has been in the past, but it does provide a format for a daily check-in, so I will continue with it. Who knows? It may pick up in the future!

It was pizza night for dinner! luckily I saved most of my calories for dinner so that the damage wasn’t as bad. Typically, if I’m not sure what’s for dinner, I’ll eat a light lunch so that way if it’s higher in calories my chances of going over is slim. Also, I had more self control than I normally do on pizza nights! I feel that’s a win in my book! However I need to force myself to drink water. Idk why it’s so hard for me but I just feel like I’m not drinking nearly enough.

@rawrxamberx Well done on exhibiting pizza portion self control! I love your strategy of eating a light lunch and saving calories for dinner, especially if you don't know what is on the menu for dinner. It may come to a point that you will have to have more control over the meals at home in order to succeed (in other words, cooking for yourself), but if your strategy of saving calories works, then you are good for now. As for drinking more water, get yourself a water bottle that holds at least three or four cups of water (24 to 32 ounces) that you can just hold with one hand and chug. Not all at once, of course! And give yourself rules; for example, in my case, I try to tell myself that I cannot have my second cup of coffee until I have downed one bottle of water. That second cup is mid morning, so I will have gotten in four cups of water early by implementing this rule for myself.

Good morning, team. I am back from my little getaway, and it was perfect! The weather was beautiful, and sunny, and you could get away without a jacket, especially if you were in the sun. The wine and the food was very good, and the hike was lovely, but not strenuous. Now, to get back into some sort of "I need to do this" mindset!

@HASWLRS
I'm so glad you had a wonderful getaway for your anniversary. It sounds awesome.

My weigh in Wednesday a day late

I'm back at 158

My graph looks like a Roller coaster, not of love.

On a positive note. I helped my hubby move his mechanic shop this weekend and I noticed I had no burning sensation in my knee! I probably won't run trails for a while or at least until our Joro spider population dies off. The webs are strong and disgusting. Good luck to everyone this week!
