I’ve put on 16 pounds since April. I looked back at a graph and saw the moment I started to put the weight back on.

It directly coincides with the beer festival I went to for my sister’s birthday. Add to it, a long weekend camping at a NASCAR race in Sonoma, backed by an even longer week camping in Mendocino.

Fun, Fun, Fun.

The lesson: alcohol and Michelle should not be friends

My week in review: bad! I gained and fell a day short on my exercise goal. That’s behind me and it’s a start to a new week.

I am making jiggs dinner today. It is a Newfoundland dinner that I love but don’t cook too often as the salt makes me retain water. It’s been in soak since lunchtime yesterday at lunch time so hopefully it will add flavour but not too salty. I brought back enough of the meat to be able to make it 4 times. It is so good.

I am headed to the pool for a swim. Have a great Sunday!

We all have an occasional Bad week. It happens. New week -- New Start. You'll get that pound back and then some.

What is Jiggs Dinner? Just curious. I am on a strict "NO SALT" diet so it sounds like it is not something I would be able to eat but I am curious about regional/Local fare. Some of the best meals I have ever had were from regional recipes that few outside the region ever hear about.

Hi y'all! I couldn't find where I was meant to post for a minute! haha.

I am super excited to be part of this challenge... my weight has been getting to me for YEARS but especially lately... I start a program with the hospital next month to hopefully help it (Just a CBT course with some food menu help) and I wanted to get a start on it- so that's what September is dedicated to!

I have been eating my face off for the last 5 months especially and it's resulted in a significant gain... also my body just feels like it is shutting down- my knees are constantly in pain, my feet, back, and neck too. I also saw a video of myself yesterday and I didn't realise how obvious my weight gain has manifested. I feel so powerless.

Saying that, my first week has been a drastic loss- pretty normal for me for the first week or 2. I have to stick to the plan and just do the best I can and see how it goes.

This week I am going to focus on NO MINDLESS SNACKING!! I am going to try and stick to 3 meals and a couple of planned snacks as needed. I wasn't very good at planning today and I don't have lunch to take to work with me, oops! I can't go to the store either because it's a holiday....so I'm going to have to order a sandwich or something from the restaurant next door. That's ok though, better than snacking on other things!

I am so excited to be in this group. I struggle with my size and it's more the physical limitations that i now have- basic things like hygiene can be a whole workout all in itself.

I am going on vacation in January/February- visiting family in Utah- and I want to shed as much as I can by then because I have to purchase some things for church at that time...and I don't want to be buying 4 or 5xl stuff... maybe a 2-3xl would be nice then!

I'm excited to get to know y'all! Thanks for having me!

It is salt meat/riblets with cabbage, potatoes, carrots, turnip and parsnip. Some people have pease pudding with it but I don’t like that. I prefer riblets and I soak them for about 24 hours before I put them on. I only have it on occasion because of the salt. We bring the riblets home from Newfoundland every year. I bring enough for about 4 meals. The scales are up 4.4 pounds this morning and I didn’t eat that much. Sodium really causes me lots of water retention.
