Back from vacation. Had a great time. Didn't go too crazy with the food or booze except for last night. Went for a 5km run on Friday and walked a ton. Around 22,000 steps a day. We will see what the scale says Thursday but I'm not worried.
That is a lot of walking.Hi everyone! I'm trying to get back on track after a month-long respiratory infection flowed by 2 week vacation in England. Been hard to get back into tracking and walking etc. I hope this coming week will be better!

Wrong direction on the scale but again, I have not been consistent.
Only hit my goal on day 1! This week will be better.
Now that your better and out of vacation mode things will go in the right direction.MyChoiceisaGoodLife wrote: »Penny @MyChoiceisaGoodLife

Friday I drove all day, so it didn't get my steps in. Avg was 13,644 so I will take it.
Fantastic loss! That is a great step average.@lindamtuck2018

Back on the road again so the scale I am using is not my usual scale. But I am determined to stay on track!

Welcome back! You got to see a great come from behind win yesterday!1 -
I went to another wedding shower for my nephew's fiancee on Saturday. I didn't go crazy, but it did get me out of my routine. I was not going to have much, or anything for supper, but I ended up eating two of my husband's Popeye's chicken strips. (He was comped three extra strips for a slow kitchen). Then I had a cupcake that I brought home from the shower. I was only going to bring two things of dessert home for my husband, but the hostess gave me a full plate because she had so much left over. After my husband went to bed, I got into his corn chips and his cheese curds. That was the most concerning of all. I don't really like corn chips and I don't feel great when I eat too much cheese (I guess no one really does), so my choosing them is a behaviour that needs to be changed. A little bit of the same behaviour on Sunday, but overall fewer calories. I was also feeling a bit sorry for myself as my knee was quite sore...so much for "feeling a bit better"! On the flip side, I have a bit of an external motivator now. At the shower, the three of us were talking, and my SIL told my MIL that she needs to lose a few more pounds to make her dress fit better and my MIL said that she had noticed that she had lost a few. No one has noticed my weight loss. To be fair, I am wearing the exact same clothes still and they are not fitted and I have only lost roughly 13 pounds. I think the number "they" say that others start to notice your loss is higher than that, but my motivator is a notice from my MIL!!2

I didn't even log in yesterday as my husband was home all day, which was very nice. However, I am ready to get back to my MFP routine today! Hope everyone has a great week!1

It was so exciting. Lol I had been cursing the player that hit the winning home run pretty much the entire season and boy did he make me eat my words1 -

Use what ever motivates you. We need all the motivation we can get. My husband buys treats I really don’t like. Get a lock box for your husbands treats. He keeps the key and you can’t be tempted.Tail0rMade22 wrote: »Monday weigh-in day: 6/12/23
