    Tomorrow is my birthday and I'm going out for dinner Saturday with my parents and gf. Already got my birthday meal logged lol. I'm not a sweets person so no cake. Lol maybe I'll stick a birthday candle in a piece of pizza .

    Do you want me to change your maintenance range?

    Down 8lb on the nose. That puts me over 50 lbs down since I came to yall last month. It blows my mind. I appreciate yall so much. You're truly saving my life with your encouragement and all of the inspiration I get from seeing your victories. From the bottom of my heart, thanks yall.

    Fantastic loss! We appreciate you. You are a great addition to our team.

    Very happy as this week i went up to 196lb before i got my eating back under control!
    Could you leave me in the main team, I've decided I'm going to try for my original goal of 176lb :)

    Awesome loss! It won’t take you long to reach your goal.

    I chose to start the new month with exercise each morning. This week, I have used 10 minute seated exercise videos on Youtube. My thought is that something is definitely better than nothing, and that I can always do more.

    Congrats on the loss! That is a great idea. I need to be doing this.

    I am not going to sweat .2 of a pound. I learned two things this week: lay off the protein bars and pickles. The protein bars were causing stomach issues😳. So the bloat from that along with the sodium from the pickles caused my weight to spike. I hit 192.4 pounds earlier in the week.

    No exercise today. I have a lot of pressure in my back from the injection. So far the leg and back pain seem better but time will tell.

    Happy FriYAY!

    Hi Linda!! Sorry I've been missing in action for the last week. I'm traveling during the month of May. I'll I was able to weigh in this morning and I posted my stats below. After today, my next weigh in will be Friday, June 2. So, I think our best course of action is to put me on hold? Anyway, I will mostly be checking in via my Wall. I of course will pop in here, when and where I can. Be well. Lee😊

    Feeling quite blah this morning. Pizza Wed/Thu and Cinco De Mayo. Hope it’s just retention from the extra salt but still must re-focus this week!

    I suspect you will shed that water weight pretty quickly.

    Steps: 3,741
    Log food: ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
    Exercise: ✔️✔️

    The pressure eased off in my back a bit yesterday afternoon and I decided to try a mini walk. I actually did 10 minutes without stopping. That’s double what I got on a good day. Was there pain, yes but it was bearable until about 9 minutes then I really had to push through it. Let’s hope it last. I didn’t give myself an exercise check because I didn’t get a total of 15 minutes of exercise. I am still very proud of myself.

    Good Morning!! Hope everyone had a good week. Here is my weigh in :)

    Weigh In Day: Saturday (5/6/23)
    PW (Previous Weight): 178
    CW (Current Weight): 177.5

    That is all. I started to take small steps these past 2 weeks back in to keto. Lowered carbs, but I am eating a lot of fat and struggling to get my protein in!! Anyone else remember starting keto and how did it go for you?

    Talk to everyone later!
