Weekly Weigh In & Movement (7/18)

 Weekly Weigh In & Movement


Goal Weight:  115  112  (Revised slightly downward)

July 18 Weigh In:  115.2

Weight Lost Last Week:  2.4 pounds 

Weight Left To Lose:  3.2 pounds


I was off of my normal schedule this week, due to the granddaughters being here, and then my husband and I flying them home and visiting there for a couple of days before returning home yesterday.

I worked hard to stay on my plan this week, modifying where I needed to at my daughter's. If they cooked a big meal, I skipped meals pre and post, and same the one night we ate out, so my calorie count looked good on paper. But, still, I wasn't sure until I got back home and weighed myself.

While we were in Tennessee, we visited with the wonderful Laura of The Occasional Nomads, and her charming husband Brett. This is our second meet up with them in Tennessee, and I feel so fortunate to have had an opportunity to meet her in real life not once, but two times. We talked nonstop, just like the first time we got together.

No Sugar and Less Food Efforts

Not much to report this week due to so many family distractions. I did stick with my plan, I did avoid sugar, I did get in as many miles as I could.

I look forward to achieving my goal in the next few weeks. I'm ready to add a few more calories back into my day. Although I've become accustomed to eating less, I am very much looking forward to upping my daily calories by some 400-500, which should be the sweet spot for maintaining my new weight, vs continuing to lose more.

    1. I've been at this for so many months - five - it's a bit crazy to realize I'm almost there. My motivation to keep the pounds off is that I really do not want to have to go through this again. It was HARD.
