    @Latitude27N I hear ya on the finding good employees. I was hoping with seasonal gone we’d have smooth sailing at work for a couple months but nope. That’s too much to ask. :(

    Leftover low carb chicken enchiladas for lunch and steak for dinner but I'm struggling to come up with something satisfying for breakfast. With end of the week, there isn't much in the house to choose from.

    I’ve added jean size as a goal. It’s kind of fun to think of it that way. On the weekend I’m going to buy some sizes so I can see progress. The place down the street from me is having a clearance sale.
    I really admire everyone in the group and all your hard work, despite tough things going on in your lives. Keep at it people!

    Had a feeling yucky for no reason day yesterday but stuck with the eating plan. Found it surprisingly hard to down the water, but did my best. My exercise goal this week is 10K steps a minimum of 5 days and missed both Tues and Weds so I gotta get after it today. Made yogurt and sauerkraut in the am, so satisfying to have that done! I just feel better if I eat fermented foods so I make time to make my own.

    @jennigerding19 - no hacking up a lung! Hope it goes well.
    @MercyRoth - I like the pant size idea!
    @tishsmith101 - it can be so darn hard to keep stocked up on the good stuff, you got this!

    Well. I’ve been waiting to get into the 150’s for years! Finally saw that number! 😄

    I recently found out I am not 5’ 1” but am actually only 5’ 0”. I thought I needed to get to 158 till I was just overweight according to bmi. Turns out I need to get to 153. I know it’s just the bmi and I should take it with a grain of salt so oh well. Doesn’t really make a difference to me. I still have the same goal of 140 which would still put me in the overweight category but I think it’s still a good weight to strive for. My doctor thinks 140 is a good goal too. When I get there I can always re evaluate.

    Kudos for hitting the 150's! Onward and downward!!

    Whoosh! Yesterday I felt super dehydrated, so maybe I had a whoosh and let go of some of the water weight I’ve been hanging onto.

    Nice drop!!

    2.1-167.5- no workout , roughly 9K steps
    2.2- 167.0- 3o minutes treadmill, upper body strength
    2.3-167.1- leg day, only did 8K steps

    Happy that the increase didn't want to stick around and it was likely salt/water retention. Lemon water is my friend!

    This week is insane at work and today is no better.. Looking forward to the weekend..

    Yeah, @HappyDonkey75, salt doesn’t love me either. Love me some lemon water 😊
    @Kupla71 - Cheers on the new decade!!!
    @ManifestingToday - we know you’re there and I appreciate you!
    @tishsmith101 - those work snack days are soooo hard… you can do it!
    @MercyRoth - Yayyy for the whoosh! I got some cranberry tea that’s supposed to be a diuretic so we’ll see…

    I had a great day yesterday, super busy and just awkward stuff going on but I drank the water, wrote down all the food, and made sure I got my steps in. I’ve already blown up the steps two days this week so gotta hit it today and tomorrow. I guess that’s the beauty of goals.

    Question for all - am I supposed to weigh and report daily? I don’t mind but I usually document my weight twice a week so I don’t get super obsessive about the 10ths… super obsessive being my middle name…

    @AmandaTucker127 - welcome! This is a great group to help with reaching your goals.

    Highest Weight 212 lbs | Ultimate Goal 140 lbs | First Goal 165 lbs
    January Goal Met (GW=168) - Actual 167. 9

    2.7- 166.3
    2.8- 166.0
    2.9
    2.10


    That scale blipped 159.9 for a miilisecond but then bounced back up to 167 and then settled at 166.0, so not sure I trust it. Its almost like it was toying with me today! We will see what tomorrow brings..We have a love hate relationship.
    Anyways, have a great weekend everyone!

    Wowza! Still whooshing I guess? I started hormonal treatment mid November and the doctor said my body would hang onto extra water for three months. They were right!

    @felixisalady welcome to the group and you can log your weight here as often as you like. No rules, just support. For me I like the daily weigh in because it sets the intention for the day and logging it here gives me a dose of support and accountability. But each person can do their own schedule.

    @MercyRoth thank you and YAY for you for the big whoosh!

    Weighed in today @ 225.4 so 4.6 down for the week. I knew I was retaining water from salt and travel but still glad to see it mostly gone. Otherwise, unable to hit my step goal because my knee blew up like a balloon and said “knock it off” so I’ll bike today to make the difference and call the ortho about the knee, something I’ve been delaying because of travel… wishing everyone a great weekend and quality planning for the Super Bowl if that’s your jam. I’m going to make homemade vegetarian pizza and some stuffed jalapeños and a veggie nosh plate so that’ll all work from a salt (I’m one of the approximately 25% of American’s who are salt-sensitive) and calorie stand point.

    Feels like I’m finally getting back to the progress I was making in October before the plateau. Maintaining over the busy holiday season is great but I had gone up by 3+ lbs and was feeling discouraged.
