  • Friday-Weigh In PW: 158.7 CW: 155.9 Day: Y’all, this nutrition coach has me on the right track! I haven’t seen 155 in over a year. I have only worked out twice this week and changing how I eat in 4 days and drinking 100 oz of water each day has done something!
  • Hi!!!! I struggle with water ALL the time but I’ve found that having this nutrition coach and being accountable to her...has given me the kick in the *kitten* that I needed! I am currently at an outpatient surgery center. We do Orthopedics, ENT, Urology, Plastics, Podiatry. It’s a stressful job in general but it’s my home.…
  • 9/26-Weds Tracked: Yes Calories: Under Exercise: No, just ran around the OR for 9 hours Day/Goal: I’ve successfully had 100 ounces of water each day for the last 4 days! Yay, me! (I hate water. Lol)

  • Weigh-in Friday: PW: 156.5 CW: 158.7 Well, I’m sorry I let you guys (and myself) down this week. I am grateful to have you guys because feeling bad about letting myself down isn’t nearly as terrible as how I feel about letting you all down. Bring on next week....I promise you all will be proud. #slimsons!
  • Daily: Thurs Track: Yes Calories: Yes, Under- IF and MFP isn’t a fan Exercise: Nothing except running around the OR Comment/Goal: Try not to eat anything late at night. Weigh in is tomorrow and I’m nervous since Florence told me to go to Taco Bell and McDonalds this week....she’s crazy!
  • Weds: Tracked: Yes Calories: Under/IF Exercise: Yes, 30 minute run pushing a stroller Goal: need to focus on increasing my fluid intake. I’ve been slacking.
  • Tuesday Well, Flo finally caught up with me. Today was a terrible day. I didnt track anything, ate Taco Bell and McDonalds (which I RARELY ever do) because I just didn’t feel like cooking. I spent most of the day sleeping and didnt exercise. I apologize to you all but I just need “a day”. I promise I will be back on my…
  • Monday Tracked: Yes Calories: Under Exercise: 8 hrs of running around the operating room Day: Returned to work after Flo. After reading the IF post...I think I may try the 5:2. I already do 16:8 but I am interested in the 5:2. Thanks for the explanation!!
  • Sunday Tracked: Yes Calories: Under Exercise: No. just too tired
  • Thank you all for your support. It’s been a rough week. Made it home to NC last night. Our house is fine and we have power but the neighborhood definitely needs a lot of work and things could have been worse. We live 20 minutes north of Fort Bragg. I’m just ready to Flo to get out of town.
  • Late Friday Post: PW:157.4 CW:156.5 Tracked:No Calories: Don’t know Exercise: Yes- 30 minutes of running/walking with Peloton app and pushing a stroller = 1.59 miles Day: tried to stay busy by doing homework to avoid worrying about what may be happening at our house in NC.
  • Thursday: Tracked: No Calories: Probably too many to count Exercise: No Day: Drove 6 hours to TN to evacuate NC. I did manage to pack my scale and weights but I’m just too exhausted from the day to worry about what I’m eating and tracking. Will be back at it tomorrow.
  • Late Weds post: (I understand if it doesn’t count) Tracked:Yes Calories: Under-but not too much, so MFP accepted it. Yay! Exercise: Just ran around the operating room for 9 hours Day: getting last minute things together in order to leave NC but I’m taking my scale with me! LOL
  • Daily-Tuesday Tracking-Yes Calories-Under...infact, so under....MFP won’t post my diary. Exercise: Yes- 20 mins Arms and Back with Peloton app. Ran 1 mile for time.

  • Daily: Monday Tracked : Yes (YAY!) Calories: Under Exercise: No, just my usual running around the Operating Room Goal: get back to tracking. FYI: I don’t know if you all are aware but there’s a small little hurricane making it’s way to NC (where I live). Should you not hear from me.....I’ve prob lost power. Looks like that…

  • Friday Weekly weigh-in! CW-157.4!! PW-161 Y’all, I woke up this morning dreading the scale because I thought I was going to let everyone (including myself) down. I had to do a double take!!

  • Day: Thurs Tracked: Yes Calories: Under Exercise: 30 mins on my spin bike. Deadlifts and squats. Goal: increase water intake this week.

  • Day: Weds Calories: Under Exercise: Nope Day: Running around the operating room for 12 hours had my feet hurting and me completely exhausted. The bonus is that I wasn’t able to eat until 1 pm (although my IF has me eating at 11 am). Staying busy all day kept me from grazing!!
  • Date: 9/4 Track: Yes Calories: Over (by 100-Sorry guys) Exercise: No Day: pretty sore from my workouts this weekend so I’m giving myself one rest day. I also saw patients in clinic today.
