I did meet my goals of logging 5 out of 7 days this week.
I also worked out yesterday- elliptical, bike and weights.
The small gain is probably from husband's birthday celebrations recently and my son's birthday party as well.
I am not worried. I'll get back on track.
Happy Mother's Day!
This week's goal:
Fruit every day
Up the protein
Yoga 2 times this week

Well this is not good. The Mother's Day buffet was irresistible, followed by mindless snacking on Monday. Yes, that will do it. Fortunately I can get back on track today. There are no more holidays or celebrations in my near future.
One food I have recently been cooking is quinoa. By itself it is pretty basic tasting, but I have been finding recipes on line that really jazz it up. This one is excellent. I also added ground chicken breast for more protein. https://www.wellplated.com/mexican-quinoa/8 -

Sherri from Salmon Arm, BC. 61 years old and 5" 2".
This has been a challenging few months for me. Dealing with health and family issues and going back to work.
I need to track my food and find a exercise program I can do at home. Preferably not to intense as I have osteoarthritis in my knees and lower back.
If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear from you.
Was not looking forward to this weigh-in
May 14 190.6
This is the heaviest I have weighed in years. I really need to get back on track. I have an Alaska cruise booked in September with my best friend & sisters. Would really like to be down at least 20lbs by then.

Important to not overreact on one day of over indulging. Just start over again the next day. Going over your calories is going to happen just need to be in a calorie deficit the whole 6 days of the week 😊.5 -

Thank you, @RubyRed427 !
I'm Chris - 74 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...
...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
My husband and I are retired, however...we watch our Grandsons during the week. Collin is 18 months and is our Morning Duty. Ronan is in 2nd Grade and is our Afternoon Duty.
I see my trainer for 60 mins three days a week and try to walk the other four days. The walking doesn't always work out. The boys can be exhausting...

No loss but no gain either. I think I need to cut my average net calorie intake by about 100 per day again. Last time I did that I saw some progress but I've let it creep back up since then.
Have a great week!3 -

The last two weeks have gone no where on the scale but up... But I haven't been super strict either and had to travel out of state for work.
Speaking of Quinoa, @sunnydays930 & @200Karen , I just made a big batch of Mediterranean Salad w/Quinoa. Today's lunch.. I have extra deli ham left over, hummus, quinoa salad and spring mix greens on a wrap.6 -
