Back is still bad. I am going to the pool to see if I get some relief. I will at least do some stretching and the hot tub.

In about a month I will be seeing my brother. He lives in Berlin and I haven’t seen him in maybe 4 years. I would like to set a goal - normally I am on “the lose .5 lbs a week” track. I wonder if I could actually instead work a little harder and lose 1 lb a week for a total of 4 lbs before he gets here. I’m 5’ tall, 154.2 lbs and right now my base calories are 1368 (I eat more when I exercise).. I am running 4x a week for my half marathon training. Maybe I could add more working out and be more diligent about weekend tracking. I’m usually a little more lax on the weekend and may go out to dinner which makes the tracking less accurate… any thoughts? Does it sound do-able?3 -

Good evening everybody. I’m here. I missed last week, but I haven’t forgotten. Another week of disappointment for myself. The scale is starting to reflect the lack of motivation to actually get my steps in. I’m definitely going the wrong way. All I can do is keep moving forward, though.

WooHoo! had a great week and have enjoyed myself! Walked the mangroves and sat on the beach went to Greektown, dove rainbow river, and weathered a storm in the new camper. All in all it was really good. Home and cleaning the camper and getting back into routine.
Swam 1850 this morning. Had a great workout. Did 2 sets of 50m fly so my stamina is getting better. Now to get into my garden.
I am at 95 for this month so far. My goal is 170. So I have to ride some miles so 935.8 is my total right now.5 -

I think you can do it. It’s recommended women stay above 1200 calories so if you add the extra exercise in you can lose the pound a week and still be close to 1200. I think the weekends do get a lot of people so extra attention to tracking will make the difference. I know a lot of restaurants have a calorie friendly or heart friendly section to the menu. If you did eat out stick to this section but there is still the issue of sodium. You got this! 💪 💪 💪3 -

Fantastic loss!
@red1185
Continue to set some smart goals each week and smash them. Weight loss will follow. Will you be missing weigh in when you travel to Jamaica? Enjoy your trip!
@aneedlecraft
Great job on the steps! If I am remembering correctly this is your first week doing the step challenge. Keep pushing each day to meet your step goal and your stamina will build.
@888Angie888
Awesome step day!

Sounds like a fantastic week and a loss! Can’t ask for more.
