IDEBRAK PW: 133 CW: 136.6 Next week's goal: 135.0 I can't lie about it. That death row inmate diet hasn't worked well for me. LOL My grandson's birthday came. We had to go to IHOP. I can't let a 3-year-old down. We ate an obscene amount of gluten-free pancakes. I'm glad these birthdays only happen once a year, though. I'll…

PW: 131.4 CW: 133 I have no guilt with the small gain. I had a colonoscopy and ate like a death row inmate afterward. The week-long prep was brutal, and I was starving. The incredibly bland diet left me with only white rice and mushrooms to eat. I typically don't eat white rice, but with my food choices, which were very…

IDebraK PW:132.0 CW: 131.4 I'll take a half pound per week. It's still a loss, right? I'm back in the swing of things now. Work is manageable. It's been cooler and rainy the past few days here. I can't get a lot of farm chores accomplished in the rain, so that has to be on hold. I'm off all next week—a much-needed…

PW: 132.6 CW: 132.0 I changed my weigh-in day from Sunday to Saturday because I couldn't seem to get my stuff together to post on Sunday. *sigh* Here I am, another Saturday weigh-in on Sunday. Work is going to slow down a bit. The heavy reset season is now over until February. Having a whole entire farm on top of all of…

PW: 132.4 CW: 132.6 I feel really good about this. These past 2 months have been HELL... but in a good way. My daughter got married in the middle of August. We had a stressful time pulling everything together. It was worth it, but it was A LOT OF WORK. At work, we have the fall sets. ALL OF THEM. We've built and set…

I missed weigh in by an hour and a half... PW: 134.6 CW: 132.4 I knew that sodium in the Mexican food would find it's way out of my system

I'm late again. Don't bounce me. I really have to get my life in order. PW: 133 CW: 134.6 Dang Mexican food! It'll take 3 days to get all of this sodium out of my system. My boy had his 29th birthday yesterday. I spent the whole day babysitting his toddlers and then we met for dinner.

Greetings September people! I am Debra. I'm 50 years old. I live in Northwest Georgia (USA). It is trying to be fall-like here. This is my favorite time of the year, and I am hardly ever indoors. I work for Tractor Supply as a merchandiser Monday-Thursday. It's 10-hour shifts, and I travel between 12 stores. When I get…

Here I am. I missed the Saturday weigh-in, but I am here. PW:134.8 CW: 136.4 My yesterday was filled with a lot of driving. I started my morning with a 40-minute drive to get the truck serviced. I was 1000 miles over, and I drive a lot for work, so I couldn't wait. We have no Hyundai dealer, and no one can get my filter,…

So definitely thought I was starving yesterday. I have no idea what all I ate. It's ok. We all have days like that. PW:133.4 (I think) CW: 134.8 The wedding was beautiful! I'll post pictures when she gets them. I didn't take any. I just enjoyed the day and pretty much stayed with the grandbabies so the adults and newly…

I'M ON TIME THIS WEEK! .....AND have a loss! PW: 135.4 CW: 133.4 I've been trying to tweak my diet to get the cholesterol lowered, but that vegan gluten-free thing is just not really what I think I am going to do FOREVER. I usually don't make changes unless they are changes that I feel like I can live with for the rest of…

I promise that after the next weekend, I'll be back on my game. This wedding is going to be what does me in. This past year has been exhausting, but the past 6-8 months have drained me... mentally and financially. I have no idea whether I am coming or going, but I do know that after August 13th, I will be able to breathe…

I'm in a funk. I missed weigh in last week. I stayed in bed all weekend fighting some nausea. This week is nowhere near pretty. PW: 132.6 CW: 137 I have no idea really where that came from. I made good choices. I'm in the middle of a diet change with a really high cholesterol count after my yearly blood work.

I'm late....AGAIN! Really, I had the best of intensions yesterday. It was a heavy farm chores day. We've acquired a new goat, built a new chicken kingdom, rotated animals to new kingdoms. OH! And I cut the grass. I use a push mower to keep this body moving. I thought I was going to have a heat stroke at one point. That's…

IDebraK Weigh in: Saturday PW: 130.6 CW: 131 Up just a bit. I can manage. I have to really step up my game the next 6 weeks! I hope to be down about 10 pounds. My daughter's wedding is August 13th. While I want to lose the few extra pounds by wedding day, this thing has me stressed out! Work was super stressful this past…

I'm thinking these Friday night trips to the Waffle House with my boyfriend after he gets off work are causing the nausea. Fighting it again this morning. IDebraK PW: 130.6 CW: 130.6 No loss. No gain. I'll take it. I wish I would have had the FitBit on at work one day. I walked right out the door and left it on the…

IDebraK PW: 130.8 CW: 130.6 Sorry it's late again. I was so nauseated yesterday. We had to go out and shop for flowers for my daughter's wedding in August. I have volunteered to make all of them. We also had to go get bed pillows since the looks on the dogs' faces was like they were just minding their own business and…

IDebraK WEIGH IN: Saturday I didn't forget. We took a spontaneous day trip yesterday. I had no service and didn't think to update before we left. PW: 132 CW: 130.8 OH! And then I typed all of this about 7 hours ago, and I just saw that I never hit the "post" button.

IDebraK Weigh in: Saturday PW: 136 CW: 132 FINALLY! Going in the right direction! STEPS: Sat: 20,755 Sun: 4,470 Mon: 7,937 Tues: 18,823 Wed: 14,330 Thurs: 18,567 Fri: 9,029 TOTAL: 93,911 I beat my weekly target on steps. Target is 91,000 for a week. If I manage to do that consistently, I'm going to have to raise that bar.…

I bought the push mower and mowed the yard yesterday. The Emu didn't freak out as bad with a push mower. She absolutely goes nuts over the rider. My boyfriend's father passed away in 2020. We visit the cemetery a lot. I have some family at the same cemetery, so we usually do our walk through when we go and check everyone's…

IDebraK Weigh in: Saturday CW: 136 I'm a little discouraged about my weight. I know it could be worse, but I think I've tacked on about 14 pounds or so. 14? 12. Something like that. I'm not posting a previous weight at all. TODAY IS DAY 1. I'm resetting and starting all over. I have a wedding in August. I need motivation,…

I truly cannot be responsible to weigh in on Sundays. I need to change my day back to Saturday. Life is messy over here. We're finally getting the house put back together after the rat fiasco. I have GOT to get my life in order! I think I forgot to weigh in last week. I don't even know anymore. PW: 132.4 CW: 134.4 I am not…

IDebraK Starting super fresh here I don't even remember previous weight. Current weight: 132.4 I missed last week's weigh in. I apologize for that. Hopefully, I'm getting things in a better place. I know I've been super sporadic with posting, but I feel like I'm in a better place now, or at least on a better track. My…

Late again.. IDebraK Weigh-in:Sunday PW: 129 something CW: 129.8 I feel like I have no control. I have no idea what this body is doing right now. Is it the weight training? Is it my food intake? Who knows? I may track a bit to see where there's a gap. Typically, I track nothing. I know it's important for weight loss, but I…

Ok, I'm back in full swing now. We've had a great couple weeks with the grands. They are such a joy! Everyone lives close, but we hardly have time to all get together. Two weeks in a row is a blessing. At 3, 2, 1 & 1, it's always an adventure. Back to reality this week. Yesterday was productive. My boyfriend and I cut the…

It's still Sunday. The last couple weeks have been full of grandbaby festivities. Almost missed this weigh in. I'm pretty sure I missed last week. ANYWAY I'll do a more formal post later.... CW 129

IDebraK WEIGH IN: Sunday PW: 129 CW: 129.6 That is up a bit, and I know it will come down. I carb-loaded all week for the Savage Race. I didn't wear my FitBit for the race. I was glad I didn't as there were several phones and Apple Watches lost along the course. This was my second savage race. I'll have steps to report…

I'm sorry for the late weigh-in. Yesterday was hectic. I actually had the page pulled up first thing yesterday and was sent on a rescue mission before I even finished my first cup of coffee. From then, it was just go-go-go. I forgot my fitbit in the charger, so I have no steps to report on paper, but I can promise that I…
