    Well I’ll be — my efforts are starting to pay off today. Took awhile….this motivates me to focus on my caloric limits and protein goals until Thanksgiving. But also need to get through my daughters birthday dinner on the 22nd. I’m cooking so know what’s going into the enchiladas!

    @jennigerding19 I hope your foot heals quickly! Hang in there.
    @dannytrees1 I've been experimenting this week with meal times and snacks. Historically popcorn has been a romance for me. 🤣 I am going to try to reintroduce it to my system and see how things go. I LOVE popcorn. It's probably my favorite food.
    @HappyDonkey75 Not sure what we're doing for US Thanksgiving -- We aren't meeting up with anyone. We have in the past made just enough food/sides for 1 meal of 2 people, so there aren't leftovers, but not sure we're interested in that either. Good question though.

    Well, I don’t know whether to believe this new low but it’s nice to see. My scale reads something different every time I step on it. I will put it on the same place on the bathroom floor and weigh myself and step off and then weigh myself again and it will be a different number, so I take the readings with a grain of salt.

    I had such a good day today! And I know it’s not going to be like this every day. So I’m sharing my excitement here.

    My work has these chorizo breakfast wraps that they make in the mornings. All the things that one would stay away from while trying to manage calories counts and such. But today was a miserable cold and wet morning. And it was Friday. I’d done so well with my gym lunches. I figured I deserved a treat. And if I was careful with what I had for lunch….

    It filled me up perfectly! By the time I went to the gym on my lunch it wasn’t too heavy in my stomach. I had a lovely lavender and pomegranate tea for lunch, drank my water and had an apple and some peanut butter. Then I had cottage cheese with tomatoes cucumber and red onion with some Cajun seasoning for dinner.

    I realize this isn’t a sustainable reality. But I feel very accomplished today. And according to the food logs I hit all the necessary .. nutrients. And stayed in my counts. So… yay!

    Thanks for letting me toot my horn.

    Happy Friday!

    Thankyou Kupla! Yes that’s it. And interestingly. You saying that brought something up for me.

    ‘Dieting’ is very… ‘bad’ to me. Triggering I guess? I don’t want to diet. Child of the 80s I guess. Diets were all the rage. And not done in healthy ways at all. They were very dangerous. I lost a good friend to an eating disorder. So I’m very careful about managing my expectations in a healthier lifestyle.

    But that’s just it. I ate very well yesterday. Just not of the usual snacks. And I hit the gym. Something people - healthy people do!

    Anyway. Got that out of my head. I’m down a bit today. But I’ve started my period so that’s going to change. But it’s nice to see that number and know I’ll see it again.

    Happy Saturday!

    Not excited by the tiny upswing, but going to say it's what it is. I'm just going to keep going.

    Hang in there, @canadamarie. <3
    Well done, @Emkaygirl1! If this works for now, go with what works and leaves you feeling satisfied. You know you best.
    @Kupla71 My scale is similar. If I get it to read the same reading twice, that's the one I record. And I do the same, line the scale up in the same spot so it can't be the floor shifting the readings, etc. :)

    Everyone else (@skintight303, @capewrathultra, @cupcakesandproteinshakes, @dannytrees1, and anyone else stopping by or that I missed), have a good Saturday!

    @Emkaygirl1 - I agree on the diet thing, I can't think about it that way. Otherwise I spiral downward .
    @Kupla71- I have played the same game with my scale. (and make sure scale is in same spot on floor. If I do , I try to just get it to read the same twice and take that measurement. If not, I take the highest number i get so then with any luck its off in the wrong direction and when I weigh again it will be a bit lower . Its all a mind game.

    I am just sitting down for the first time since 5:30 this morning . Its been another busy day , had to get three horses to the vet for dental work for 8 am. then had to doctor on another horse that has a minor laceration on his le g.Then I got involved in a horse starvation rescue case and had to help the poor lady that literally found this horse that just appeared on her property in really really bad condition. The authorities are involved and I am not sure what is going to happen but I am on standby to haul or help in any way I can. In all honesty I think the poor animal needs to be euthanized its so bad off, (elderly horse who has obviously been starved and neglected for what appears to be a long long time. Humans can be terrible.

    Eventually I made it in for grocery shopping, and home to get some housework done and dinner going.

    All that aside, I feel way behind on posts as the thread has been so active. lost a couple of days due to busy work days and busy after work evenings with other commitments. Still getting my workouts in but nice to see everyone out here doing an awesome job.

    @tishsmith101 -great job.. I am living vicariously through you at the moment because I too want to see that number below 170 so badly!!! Its been since my thirties that I was that low (and lower) but I agree, it helps to be here to see we are not alone in this battle.

    So annoying... when your calories and macros are on point and your steps are high and yet.... the scale goes up ..No salt , no alchohol, no sweets.. so what gives...

    Oh well.. maybe go swimming today at the lap pool .. will help my mindset overall. I woke to the first sticking white stuff and its got me in a mental funk.

    Happy Sunday all!

    @Emkaygirl1 the gym and the yard work do deserve a little reward like wine lol. I do that too. Congrats on losing and taking care of yourself. You are setting yourself up for success to reduce stress around family events. I personally understand - we must!

    Didn’t want to weigh this AM after some super salty snacks last night with TV. Will get to the gym tomorrow and Tuesday and log before my pre weekend gets busy with my youngest daughter’s birthday celebration.
