    @FaZizzle - I missed the bit at the top of your post about your teenage DD, only read your day post, had to go back search when i saw @UTMom81 comment. So pleased that she had the sense to reach out for help, teenage years can be such a turbulent time for many young people and their families. Send you lots of supportive positive vibes, hugs & love that she can work through this together with your help. I know that you will have the love to help her, but also hope that you are getting some support & counselling from the helpline as well as your DD, parenting doesn't come with manual and at times we need this too <3
    P.S. wondered if she is participating at the gym? Sometimes it can help to channel frustration into exercise of some kind, for my DB in his teenage years karate helped him as much a loving supportive family.

    @FaZizzle -I'm just catching up on the last page - So sorry your DD is struggling! What a brave girl to reach out for help. I know you're feeling all her angst. (((HUGS)))! The gym sounds like a wonderful place for you both to be. I hope it all settles down soon.

    10/22 - 156.4 - So glad to be on my way back down. I'm looking leaner now, too, which is demonstrating I'm back on the right track since the mirror is being kinder than the scale at this point. Last week was a whole mess - TOM, return from vacation, back to the gym (hello water retention and soreness), and not being fully back to routine. I'm feeling much better as far as routine and tracking goes. Today was the real test for BF back in the gym since we did back/biceps with a small bit of shoulders. The surgery site (shoulder/bicep reattachment) was sore and he had to take things slow and light, but he got through the workout. It's good to have him back, though, and I hope he doesn't have to take more time off. I'm on track for today with food - both macros and fiber goal. I'm only 2,000 steps from minimum goal (8k-10k), and I'm a bit further ahead on water than I have been the last few days. I've still been waking up between midnight and 2am to use the bathroom despite last night stopping water earlier than normal (and meeting goal). Hopefully I can fix that but I know some of it is due to me dropping water retention and there's excess that has to make its way out. Tiny baby steps towards having my routine fully back in place but I'm close enough I'm happy to see progress again.

    10/15 - I'm officially back from vacation. It has been hectic so far but it should calm down after today since I got all my errands and appointments done. Work is still going to be busy but those are only certain set hours of the day and the rest of my time can flow as it will. I have resumed macro tracking (so far 3 days), water tracking (3 days as well!) steps (yesterday and today), walks (yesterday and today) with the dogs who are also now home from the boarding/vet place, and gym (2 days thus far, 3 more days planned). Weight is likely to bounce around this week as I drop bloat/water weight but hold on to extra water from soreness (I'm already incredibly sore from Monday's leg day). This is okay, the goal is to ease into my routines and healthy habits without stressing myself out horribly. I'm glad to be back! I will aim to catch up on all of you if work breaks and evening time allows
    10/16 - Well, I did weigh but my scale wouldn't sync and then it started acting erratic. I had to hard reset it and then ended up changing the batteries (which said 57% remaining, but after a battery change it started acting normal). Unfortunately, I lost the data from this morning. I do remember seeing a 157.x so I went up. As expected since I treated myself to pizza for lunch (within macros, but bloat doesn't care about macros) after having to get a mammogram. All clear, though! No need for another until after I'm 40 or if something comes up (a lump or symptoms). I've got everything logged today to meet macros and I'm focused on one gallon of water or more (so far I'm 3 for 3 days!). Gym done, dogs walked so now need to keep moving through the day to hit 8-10k steps (need less than 3,000 to hit goal as of this post).
    10/17 - Well, after a full reset, my scale synced yesterday's weight and I didn't end up losing it in the factory reset after all! Yesterday I did end up having a sweet tooth moment of weakness and snacked on two Fannie May Candies - Trinidads. The two pieces were only 160 calories so not terribly far over, but macros were not met within 10g. Boo. Today I vow to do better. I did meet all my other goals, though! I made the last bit of pizza fit into my macros for lunch and have my last meal prepped dinner tonight. It has cooled down significantly here so if it stays cool tomorrow, I might see about making a soup. So far I'm on track for all my goals though a bit further behind than I'd like on water. Speaking of, I'm going to finish this cup and go refill. Just need to get 40oz down before bed. I've had horrible luck about drinking water in a timely manner to not have to wake up in the middle of the night. I know part of that is me flushing water weight but I really really need to be better about getting in more water in the morning. I slack the most between my coffee (which I drink 50oz of water before I ever drink my coffee so I start really well) and lunch. Then I'm frantically chugging it. Oops.
    10/18 - Uptick due to leftover pizza for lunch - expected and within macros. I'm slow moving this morning. I did my workout, as usual, but have been slowly moving through my normal morning. I'm off today but I may have to hop on to do some minor work this afternoon. Nobody did any work on the two projects I'm heavily involved in while I was gone for the week so we're horrendously behind. Unfortunately, also, this is unpaid because it should've already been done..... I don't think computers work in the ocean... Nor does my company's VPN work where I was at due to restrictions so there was no avoiding this on my part. I'm frustrated but trying to lot let it get to me. Hoping for a calmer work week next week now that I'm settled back into routine.
    10/19 - DNP
    10/20 - DNP
    10/21 - Bloat from the weekend shenanigans. Due to being busy and out of the house my food options were not optional and I was low on water. Now I'm in catch-up mode. Coach changed my macros this morning and we discussed, since I'm getting near my maintenance macros, to go into a slight surplus for muscle gain. I'm excited for that! This is the ideal time to ease into maintenance and surplus so I can then drop into a deficit early next year near the end of my current coaching pre-paid time. BF went back to the gym today as attempt number 2 in hopes he can start gently building strength back into his shoulder and arm. He's still at risk of ripping (not tearing, it'd be a rip which is worse) it out of the anchor but it'll take a bit of effort. He'll be added motivation to continue going when it's cold or miserable and when I'm tired and its dark. This is all good news. I'm content and I know this bloat will drop. I had forgotten to mention I was also dealing with TOM and I'm sure a little of this uptick is due to the end of that, as well. All good, progress will be made as my body re-adjusts to routine.
