Well I don’t feel any different today at 60 than I did yesterday at 59. I don’t know what I was expecting. We are either having Chinese food or pizza later. Of course, we will have cake. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

Weight loss is not linear! The loss you've earned definately does not turn up on weigh in day!!!
I record my calories in and out every day and work out the loss I'm due ..... over a rolling month it almost always works out right to the .2 of a pound.
I totally get how focused on the scales we become (i take mine on vacation with me!!!)
But please don't let the scales become a demotivation!!! Our daily weight varies so much due to salt, water, carbohydrates, how hot it is, cortisol levels, exercise done, last weeks big loss, etc etc etc
All that effort does show up on the scales eventually! Promise.
@Slimmersixties Well said! I've been on this journey for a year and a half, and if there is one thing I learned, its never give up. Persistence is the key. Life is filled with ups and downs, put the downs behind you and get back at it. Enjoy the ride. I'm down 80 pounds. I have had months that I have gained and months that I have lost a bunch. I learned something from both.0 -

Had PT yesterday - glad I went. The exercises are totally different than the ones that found on Youtube. Glad to get them from an expert. Will go a couple of times when I get back, but he said for the most I can do them on my own. Ready to go - leave bright and early tomorrow morning! Celebrating Father's day today. I am going to be realistic. I will not be losing weight while away - but I'm not going to let it be a free for all. I expect an increase - just hoping that it won't be the USUAL vacation increase! I'll check in from time to time - but see you all in nine days!
@Megan_smartiepants1970 I should still be able to record my steps! 😎 I know that I am excused from the weigh-in (TY), but will if I can.

Argh - late posting this two weeks in a row! Apologies for making you send out the reminders. Very busy week and weekend but not all work - certainly some fun too. For fathers day, Susan is getting me an Apple watch since I've been without my Fitbit for almost a year now (it was collecting steps but the screen was out so it would run out of juice and I wouldn't know it until later so i finally stopped wearing it. I'll pick one out later this week and hopefully that will help inspire more steps and exercise. Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there!2 -
Sorry, busy weekend here

I hope all the fathers in the group had a great Father’s Day. I am waiting until this coming weekend to treat my husband as there was so much food left over from Saturday. We ended up eating Chinese food which of course cause a big jump on the scale due to sodium. We are under a heat advisory for the next 4 to 5 days. There will be no relief from the heat even at night. I plan on reigning in my eating this week. Enough is enough. Weighing, measuring and logging accurately is my plan.
