    Im in the 220s (high 220s but i will take it). I can’t believe it. 🥳🥳

    Sorry not updating my daily logs. I didn’t log the last two days but my foods haven’t been changing much. And still not exercising but my food is been pretty good and I am still drinking my gallon of water daily. Just been way too busy. But I will still be here to cheer everyone!!!

    I really don't know what is going on. I cannot keep consistent with wanting to be healthy. I give up so easily.
    I feel so crappy, I don't want to leave the house.
    Anniversary today and easter weekend. I must start something new on Monday.

    It’s mental game. Everyday make little changes and you will see the results. I admit I don’t eat the healthiest and there some days where I can’t or don’t want to exercise, but keep moving on. If I want a cake, I make fit in my calorie/macro intake. It’s all about balance. Like Krysless2 said I weigh everyday. Might it be unhealthy that’s fine. But guess what it holds me accountable and I know what foods I ate too much of or makes me gain weight. I started drinking a gallon of water daily and the weight has come off easier. So do what’s important for you. You want that cake, eat a tiny slice. Don’t deprive yourself, then is a journey not torture. If we deprive ourselves of what we like then our minds and body quits. You got this! I’m rooting for you ladies!!!

    @melissan84 Great post. 💕

    Thank you all for your support and encouragement and advice. I am listening to what you are saying and I am making some changes.
    1. I need more water
    2. I need to log everything and stop hiding from the scale.

    Also, my husband reminded me I have had the most success when doing 20 min exercise 2x a day.

    I never been so happy to lose .4 lbs! I for sure thought I gained like 5lbs minimum. I haven’t tracked for more than a week. I exercised less this week and ate less veggies this week. I am very relieved at .4 lbs 😂 I need to do better!

    Comments: I took two naps today! I think those taxes (my procrastinating, really) took a lot out of me. I’m so glad to have those behind me. Trying a new soup recipe tomorrow. (I think it’s called Turmeric Lemon Chicken Soup from The Mediterranean Dish. My husband found the recipe online.)

    Hey team... winding down from my never ending week. Only just shy of 99 hours in in 7 work days since coming back from being home sick for 2 week .. of which I worked from home over 40+ hrs the second week. Only Easter off and I cooked and cleaned most of the morning - after prepping for 3+ hrs in the evening after working all day Sat.
    Hoping next week brings a more mentally sound schedule and allows me to start getting back on track and back on the exercise routine. Its been kind of shower sleep work shove food in somewhere quick about 8 or 9pm while at work and repeat. Have a feeling my weigh-in will not be friendly this week. Definitely not healthy nor realistic way to live/ exist for the long run. Trying to keep up with the posts but just haven't had the time to give any input. Hoping you all have a great week!

    @susanshaughnessy80 TWO naps! I would kill for ONE! :D Hope the soup turns out good, I'm leary of any recipe my husband finds. ;)
