    I guess most of it was water weight? Glad to be back down towards the 180's! Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead. This is going to be a busy couple of weeks for me but I'm excited about it.

    YES!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

    Let's GOOOOOO!!! :D

    Things that have worked well for me over the past week:

    1) Increasing my step target goal from 10k to 12, 500.
    2) Using the IF tool that MFP offers. Sticking with the 16/8 has really helped me!
    3) Watching Dr. Eric Berg's videos on YouTube. If you've never heard of him, this man has an incredible wealth of knowledge for living a healthier lifestyle.

    Hey! Sorry I was meant to post sooner... my partner hid the scales while she was cleaning so I'm going to hunt them down for a weigh in tomorrow! Sorry for the delay!

    Down 1.6. Smaller loss than I am used to, but I am insanely grateful. I am still sticking to the plan and not eating things that would derail me, so I am assuming I am just headed towards a plateau. Right now, as long as the scale is trending in the right direction, I am happy.

    Much love yall!

    How's your physical activity coming along. I would switch things up every so often to push through plateaus.

    I need to focus on this for sure. Aside from going around the house and doing chores, I haven't started focused exercise. I need to make a routine and start getting to it. I guess this week is the wake up call- time to get to work!

    I do my workout first thing in the morning. I go to the bathroom, get dressed, eat an English muffin, go straight to the gym and hop on the treadmill. I don't give myself time to talk myself out of it.

    I only have myself to blame honestly. My eating has been out of control. I am starting again today- no more sugary stuff or sneaking food. i can't screw my future self up like this! I'm already screwing up my present self by keeping this weight on and eating the way I am.

    I have a lot of work to do- and the first step is honesty, so i needed to own up to it and share it with you guys :)

    Remember...one day at a time! You are allowing yourself to have compassion so you will be just fine. I'm rooting for you! <3
