    My husband and I went to an early morning event with 400 people, and then we celebrated with a pile of tacos. The tacos were AMAZING. So was the sodium, I guess. So we'll let this bleed off for a day or two.

    SofaKween I understand how you feel. I wish there was a good answer. Or that there were more splurgey foods with zero/low calories. Splurging with Salad isn't exactly what I mean. :) My Saturdays are very much a sabotage, but it's the one day I'm doing it. It slows the loss dramatically, but this is what I'm agreeing to. I didn't get to this weight in 5 mos. It's not coming off in 5 mos. or 10 mos. The other tool I use to track my weight tells me on Sundays that I'll reach my goal weight by 2029. But by Thursday, when the scale normalizes, it has me at my goal weight by the end of 2026/early 2027. Not that I'm happy about that, but I think that too will get better as I continue to lose. With less weight on me, I'll move better/easier, etc. It's not all about the scale either.

    I'm wondering if you can take your Friday weights and plug those into WeightGrapher and see what that trend looks like, vs. the daily trend? Maybe that would be a better visual for you?

    Have a good rest of the weekend, everyone!

    I’m happy I am not alone in this struggle to lose any weight this month (so far). I got very close to 145 lbs in 2023 and stayed there for almost a year……until last fall when when one pound up led to another. I did lose back then by reducing wine, and snack foods and know I have been too relaxed with these this year. The empty calories!
    But I did have a great lab report at my annual physical this past week. With the exception my beloved doctor would like to see me lose 5-8 pounds to increase longevity and avoid health issues. He suggested lowering bad fats and bad carbs (processed foods, right)? And of course move more. I am taking this to heart. DH and I grilled chicken breast, prime top sirloin and asparagus, peppers and squash to get with the program. I do like to eat healthy when I have time to shop, prep and cook - Very delicious!

    Lazy Sunday.  Need to be less lazy today and tick off some of the tasks I need to get done.

    Sensible words @ManifestingToday - I think I need to accept that the water weight losses i've had on several nights are false losses that will likely go back on. I do have wine most Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings but so long as I can avoid snacking then it's included within my daily calorie allowance. Realistically I wanted to lose the weight slowly and if I look at Monday trends, then that's what i'm doing so I have no reason to be annoyed really.

    Wow ok so that’s the vacation weight coming off. Mostly water I guess. I am feeling pretty squishy and my jeans are pretty tight but a few weeks back to normal and it’ll hopefully resolve.

    Back from the weekend equine event. VERY TIRED and now to get back to work mode.. Its going to be a tough two weeks because one coworker is out who primarily supports one client . I generally don't get too involved with this particular client and they are a full time hand holding job with alot of different way of doing things outside of our standard support contracts….So feeling a bit anxious about having to step in.

    I am cautiously optimistic here on this weight. I ate pretty terrible all weekend I will admit, including one night we went and got very greasy chinese food. I had a couple of spiked seltzer two of the nights but only 1 drink (low calorie) per night.

    I just didn't have near enough time to plan ahead and get the food I needed to stay on track because things got hectic last week. I can only get so much done in a day when I am working full time. ( and was preparing for this horseshow, which was very fun and I walked away with way better scores than I ever expected .

    Our niece is still here for this week. She was a pretty good helper at the show but by about the second day the exuberance of the vast amount work involved started to wain , which was fine.. she's a teenager so I wasn't even expecting the help she did give. She's a good kid. Her mom arrives Friday so we may have another weekend of sightseeing ahead. Weather is supposed to get cool and wet so we will have to see.

    Back to reality and getting back onto some sort of schedule

    Happy Monday everyone

    Did my cleaner eating over the weekend and stopped with dinner, no snacks afterwards. I can feel a difference in my body without the nighttime snacks.
    Tonight I’m making grilled rock cod tacos on Siete tortillas with lime crema.

    Not sleeping that well, it’s quite hot in my room at night but too noisy to have the windows open and really annoying to be just drifting off to sleep and then hearing the high pitched buzz of mosquitos 🦟

    Great I am right back to where I was at the 1st of the month. I started feeling sick yesterday afternoon and sure enough, woke up even moreso. Feel pretty awful right now but going to try to work.

    I was very busy at work yesterday since we are down one team member (and the other one is essentially useless and management does nothing about it) and didn't get any exercise. By the time I was finished with my work day , and half thought about getting on the treadmill, I was really feeling crummy so I sat on the back porch and did nothing. It was all I could do to get dinner ready. I did manage to stay on track with food yesterday but without exercise, it didn't help I guess.

    Just going to try to get through the day today

    Amazing what can happen when you don't eat.. :) and your stomach is rejecting everything you try to put in your mouth..

    I have been working while being sick. I slept during my 40 minute lunch yesterday and struggled through the rest of the afternoon Its the pits.

    I haven't worked out which is making me a little worried about losing progress. (I know, resting when I am sick is important) I might try to get on the treadmill today because the body aches don't seem quite as bad this morning.

    @ManifestingToday I love that your getting in all the treadmill time and getting to see some progress even if the scale isn't reflecting it yet… changes are happening. Keep up the great work. Could you walk a couple extra miles for me today?? 😉

    Have a great Wednesday everyone

Had a 1/4 and a little more of Kirkland cauliflower pizza for dinner because it was a hot day, and I craved the cheese! Tonight is going to be zucchini boats with ground chicken and Italian sauce with some Parmesan.

    Heading to a BodyBalance class this morning with one of my favorite instructors. I’ve been
    testing ways to keep the calories low this week when a snack attack happens-more raw vegi’s and low fat dip, roasted vegetables at dinner, extra water, or a piece of fruit are helping.

    I messed the date up yesterday — corrected yesterday's entry to 18th. And I'm finally seeing that scale start to drop. Work is getting very busy, and I also accepted a side job, which might make things a little extra hectic, but at the same time, it's a good problem to have. I will be on my own next week too, which might give me some flexibility to eat differently (dinner earlier, different food choices, different bed time), and we'll see what that looks like on the scale after a few days. All good things - I'm willing to experiment here. But I am also wondering how I'm going to do all this stuff. 😁

    HappyDonkey75 I truly hope you get to the other side of whatever this sickness is very quickly. Please rest — your body is telling you it needs you to slow. Considering the germs you've been around, plus all the running you've been doing, this is exhaustion on top of sickness. If my wonky knees and ankles will allow, I shall walk more for you. 😂🤣 But please, rest up.

    Happy almost-Friday, everyone!

    Feel worn out today - think the heat has got to me. Currently glued to the sofa but going to set my phone alarm every hour - have a list of tasks to be done that I can break them down into 15-20 min bursts of activity. Need to not waste the day.
