    Ugh, was doing good a few days ago, so this is hopefully just water weight.

    That would be stressful @Gidgitgoescrzy ! It's great your doctor was able to put your mind at ease. I've also experienced panic after Googling medical stuff before, I know better than to trust "Dr. Google" but it doesn't stop me from doing it 🙃

    Great job checking off the boxes @conleywoods !

    @lauren_989 oh that is so frustrating, I'm sure it is water weight. I've noticed if I weigh in the day after a heavy workout my weight is up, yay DOMS. And thanks for the comment on the lowering carbs, I'm reminding myself to take it day by day and that feeling a little hungry won't kill me.

    I feel really good about the last 2 days, I've been a lot better with having a moderate - low level of carbs and I've gone for walks the last 2 days. Yesterday I only had time for a couple of short 10 minute walks and still didn't meet my step goal but I'm glad I at least got out for a little while.

    I think I would like to lower my step goal to 6000 for a bit, it's been a while since I've been able to consistently reach 7000 and I find myself giving up. On my days off it's usually feasible but the days I work I usually spend so much time sitting unfortunately.

    Alright I'm off to have another good day, I hope you all make it a great day too 😄

    @Gidgitgoescrzy That sounds super stressful!!! It's definitely hard when you get a result or hear medical staff say something and Google makes it sound so scary. Especially when you haven't had a conversation with your doctor. I'm glad you called instead of waiting for your appointment a week later. Quitting smoking will give you huge benefits.

    Yay! Back on track. It felt like it took forever to get going again. I have 10 days left I my challenge and I want to end strong. My goal was to loose 4 lbs of body fat during my challenge. I've lost faster this time around and lost 7.1 lbs of body fat. The extra will be helpful because the weigh out day is right when my TOM is. The extra water weight tends to skew the scale a little.

    I would like to say this was well earned, but it wasn't. I have had gastrointestinal issues since Sunday morning. With those issues, I've barely been eating. The more I eat, the more time I spend in the bathroom. I'm choosing not to worry about it unless it lasts over a week, or I get worsening symptoms.

    Whoaaaa …. I'm sorry for missing last week, Teamies! I got home from a lovely week+ away, and boom, all my energy was zapped. Like really drained. Having a hard time plugging back into MFP, but making a concerted effort the last two days. Not caught up on the thread, but I'll try to do that tomorrow or Saturday. (Thank goodness my scale reckoning upon returning home was not a disaster!)

    Weird week here. Other than just slowly feeling my energy returning, we received a Raw Generation juice & smoothie subscription on Saturday, that I'd lost track of. No room in the freezer, so hubby and I are currently on Day 6 of a completely unplanned mostly liquid juice & smoothie diet week :p. Super weird, bc my calories have been way, WAY over every day of this freggie cleanse, but I've not gained weight. And I'm talking like, up to 1000 cals over some of the days! I do not understand …. 🤷‍♀️

    Crazy, busy day at work today. So glad to be home. I ended up taking an hour nap, so I hope I can sleep later.

    @MaddawgMadsen I hope your stomach feels better!

    @Gidgitgoescrzy wow that's stressful! Glad the dr messaged you back so you don't have to worry.

    @MaddawgMadsen get well soon!

    @mkksemail welcome back 😊 how interesting that your calories are up but weight is down. I'm sure there's science to explain it, it does seem like liquid would burn off easier than solid foods...?

    @lauren_989 I hope you were able to sleep well, naps are glorious while they're happening but can really mess with sleep schedules. It's usually still worth it though 😆

    Nice weigh in @conleywoods !

    Today was mostly good, I did have a fast food cheeseburger and a few fries for lunch 🫣 I watched my portion size though and was relatively active today. I ordered my CGM and it should be delivered next week. I'm really excited to see what I can learn from it, and thankful that this technology is available.
