11/17: 171.7 📉I’m loving how this round ends the day before Thanksgiving. 🤣That could either be a good or a bad thing. 🤷‍♀️Got exercise in yesterday. I also made another new recipe—Salmon Cakes. I decided we need more Omega-3. In addition, we have lots of leftovers since I realized I misread the recipe and doubled it in the end. 😂

11/18: 172.1 📈No surprise. I had to get up extra early today. Such a busy day. Morning meeting, tap class in the afternoon, dinner out and theater tonight. Whew!

11/19: 171.3 📉Big surprise! I had a lot of calories left over when we went to dinner and out to the theater. My husband and I split the Creme Brulee. OMG! I was in heaven. I went to tap class in the afternoon. I am assuming that tap dancing is what is making this possible??? The calories burned is huge! 😳 I questioned that when I started, but I am usually very sweaty afterwards. Plus, it doesn’t feel like it. I’m having so much fun and want to keep going.

11/20: 172.2 📈😂🤷‍♀️I know I did not get any exercise in at all yesterday…even though it felt like I was running non-stop. I’ll have tap class today with no eating out, so we’ll see what happens tomorrow morning.

11/21: 171.8 📉Tapped and stayed well under calories…mainly because my goal is not to eat my exercise calories. Helped DH rake 🍂 and finish that up. Pretty good number considering we also had 🥩last night.😋 It was a good day. Today is mani/pedi day and symphony tonight.

11/22: 171.6 📉I made some GF dinner rolls to see if they would be good enough for Thanksgiving to be our only rolls. Um…they were amazing!!!

11/23: 171.9 📈I’m not going to make my round goal, but that’s okay. Guess that dinner roll right before bed was a bad idea.

11/24: 171.2 📉🫢Always amazing to me when I have a sizeable weight loss the morning after a day of no exercise. 🤷‍♀️I had no snacks after dinner, which I believe plays a part. I didn’t post over the weekend and I see there are a lot of pics to check out. Hope I can get to them; I have such a long list of to-dos over the next three days!!

11/25: 171.6 📈

11/26: 170.1 📉😮I have no explanation. 🤷‍♀️Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE 👍👍

1/17: 159.0 This is my last super crazy busy week, hopefully for a good while! Constant mantra in my head, "you just have to make it through this week, you just have to make it through this week". I'm going take a few minutes this morning and write out a big list for the week and tape it on the wall and cross of things as I accomplish them, think it will help to see that list get smaller and smaller as the week progresses. Some of this is work related, which is what it is, but a lot is stuff I have put on myself - so I have to remind myself, you are this busy because these are things you enjoy & want to do BUT if doing them stresses you out what's the point? So, taking a little mindfulness moment to take a deep breath & enjoy the chaos.

11/18 DNW Need to move the scale out of our family bathroom, too many mornings when it's time for me to weigh, my husband is there getting ready for work and then I miss my morning weigh-in.

11/19: 159.6 No reason, hitting my macros & eating in a deficit - but this is my bodies standard reaction to a big drop (lost .7 on Monday), to bounce back up and then slowly ease back down. Recognizing a pattern is one of the good things about daily weighing - keeps the panic away with these fluctuations happen.

11/20: 159.2 Easing back down

11/21: 158.6 Happy to see this drop this morning! Yesterday was an off-kilter day, too busy, and didn't get to log my food or track, but was just mindful with my eating and happily it worked out! Baking two pies today for my early Thanksgiving this weekend.

11/24 159.0 Was out of town the last couple of days visiting family and having an early Thanksgiving (won't be having "Thanksgiving" on Thanksgiving) and was not able to weigh or track food. Super pleased with only less than 1/2-pound fluctuation after eating Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday and then out in restaurants yesterday. I think it was probably the wine that got me as I was very mindful of my food portions. Anyway, I'm happy to have not derailed my weight loss and will look forward to dropping back down in the days to come as my schedule returns to normal.

11/25 157.9 Big drop overnight! Not convinced this is a "real number" yet, will see what happens tomorrow to end the round. I'm hosting book club tonight and making lots of food, so I will just have to be super conscious of what I am eating today before this evening and very small portions tonight.

11/26 157.4 Successfully navigated the food at book club last night - even had dessert and probably too much wine. Happy to see a loss today! See you in the next round.
