Good morning all! We're playing hooky and skipped church this morning. I'm so tired and my daughter has even budged. We didn't get to bed until after midnight. However, I didn't but any food from vendors at the event. We picked up pizza on the way, brought single serve bags of snacks, and a bunch of cut fruit in our…

@kristinecmkavanagh1 That's an incredible loss!! Today is the annual Freedom Blast event. We love it. Inflatables, good trucks, way too many people 😂, live music, fireworks. I'm going to try and eat light until we go and avoid most of the food bevels while we're there. We will pick up pizza on the way to help with that…

Happy Saturday!!! I stepped on the scale today. Given last week I did the quick on and off and barely looked, seeing a slightly over 10 lb total gain. And tried to not be sad. As of this morning I'm at 8.4 lbs above my previous low. I'm only 19.4 lbs from my current goal then. It's good to know I haven't gone so far out of…

Morning all! I did pretty well yesterday but I've already been craving things this morning and I try not to eat until after 10am. It is only 9:38am so I just hope I can hold myelf in check and not go overboard at all today. I took my daughter and her friend to Lego Club at the library, dinner and to visit a petting zoo set…

We had so much fun at Chick-fil-A last night. There was a petting zoo, including a cow. I also managed to keep to all my set goals for yesterday and got in a 40 minute cardio workout on my lunch break. Yay!!! @pridesabtch At least your fall was yummy. There is nothing worse than blowing your plan on something that isn't…

Morning all! Yesterday I did really well. My daughter made dinner (with a lot of help) and since I knew the plan I was able to fit everything into my calorie goals for the day. For dessert, instead of my husband's leftover ice cream cake, I made some sugar free Butterscotch pudding and enjoyed that. Thankfully, this…

Morning all! Yesterday I did really well. My daughter used a recipe from her Kids Baking Club box for dinner so we have Hula Hula Pineapple Chicken with rice and broccoli. Instead of my husband's leftover ice cream cake for dessert, I made some sugar free Butterscotch pudding and enjoyed that. Thankfully, this morning my…

I feel accomplished!!! I actually checked everything off from yesterday. My fasting blood sugar is nearly back to normal. I don't know if I'll do as well today since I have online meetings, my daughter has an event at the library where I'll have to work remote, and then I promised her and a friend Chick-Fil-A for dinner…

Good morning!!!! Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. I told you all yesterday that I needed to stop giving myself excuses and buckle down… and I think I managed pretty well. I ate super light through the day and when a craving hit mid-afternoon I allowed myself exactly one serving of tortilla chips to get the crunchy…

I actually did pretty well yesterday. I stayed inside my calorie goals, enjoyed the pasta, and had ice cream cake. I didn't get to my workout but things got busy. I did not let it be an excuse for the rest though. So, definitely a win for starting over again. @mytime6630 My problem is that if I fall a little bit or have a…

I'm sad it's only with the Dexcom... only because I manually check with the Verio OneTouch. I do have Android though. Hopefully, one day more options will be available to link them all up.

Well, I'm not going to lie. I've spent a couple months being flaky and not fully tracking. I let stress and business take over.... now my fasting blood sugar is high again and I put 10 lbs back on. What is wrong with me???? After all that hard work. Ugh! So, if you don't see me post for a few days please feel free to reach…

Hey all! I really need some accountability. I've been sliding too far and my fasting blood sugars are higher than they should be, I haven't been to the gym in about a month, I've had many days where I just give up and go way above what I should have and don't even track. I tracked everything yesterday and was about 400…

@sandramarshall200 Thanks. I think you might be right. I might need to think more about maintenance for a month or so and then adjust my goals. I've had stuff every month for a couple months and it's getting in my head that i'm failing. But I know you're right and really I'm not as bad off as I feel.

Hey all! It's been a week since I posted on the boards at all. My parents have been to visit and are flying out today. I have to admit that I haven't weighed in at all, have eaten kind of horribly, and don't really want to know where I stand as of today. I just.... don't. I said I needed to get back to basics, then I…

My parents visited for the past week and I have been so off the rails I didn't even try to accurately log. They fly out today. Every time they visit I end up messing myself up something fierce. *sigh* @harringtona1 Sounds like a lot going on lately. Hopefully you and hubby can take it easy for a bit. @HASWLRS congrats on…

Linda 5'7" 40 years old SW: 300 lbs GW: 180 lbs CW: 190s ~ I actually haven't officially weighed in the past month or so. When I was at the doctor last though I was still below 200 fully dressed so I feel confident saying I'm in that 10 lbs. I'll make myself weigh in soon. 🌼What are your goals for June? How about for the…

Yesterday was the last day of school for my daughter. The insanity of the last month of school with awards, class parties, bringing everything home, half days, etc is finally over. On to summer break! That said, that should mean I'm able to check in most days like I was a few months ago. The end of school is nearly as bad…

JFT: *No coffee until 8am *No food until 10am *No snacks after 8pm *At least 8000 steps today *Get to Zumba today *Get kids to bike & play this morning *Catch up emails for credits & cash (work) I've been behind on everything. I finally got the newest recipe posted yesterday but that was a week later than originally…

Sorry I've been so MIA. School is officially out and all the awards, class parties, and other assorted nonsense is over. May is always so crazy. Even my bi-weekly recipe blog was over a week late getting posted. However, I did finally get it up yesterday.…

JFT: ☑️No coffee until 8am ☑️No food until after 10am ☑️No food after trivia ☑️At least 8000 steps ☑️Stay under 1800 calories ☑️Drink at least 72 oz water ☑️Get blog recipe post…

@HASWLRS I definitely don't see the smaller person in the mirror. I need to go back and look at photos from a year ago, two years ago, etc to really see the changes. I'm not able to look at myself in the mirror and really see myself as smaller at all. @dogwalker157 My goal was overall health too. Not just weight. My…

I've had some issues with accountability lately. Instead of checking in, I started just not posting on the community boards at all. Doesn't that figure. I know better... but I just didn't want to push myself. It hasn't been more than about 2 weeks so I'm restarting before I let all my hard work so backward! JFT: ☑️No…

I’ve been having some accountability issues here this month. Like I feel lazy so I don’t want to even acknowledge it in the community boards. I’ve still had at least 5000, usually over 8000, steps in a day. I’m still tracking, although I’ve been logging after I eat rather than before which leads to my over indulgence. So…
