It appears I've created an annual trend of needing to reset my diet in August-- 238.8 today. Peak weight this month 245.5 on the 13th. Onward and downward!
I'm hoping to be in the low 230s/high 220s (if not lower!) by 12/23. I always forget how much electrolytes help with whooshing some water weight. Yesterday was a fairly active day, I hit my step goal of 14k steps and took advantage of the beautiful weather (70F and sunny, rare here this time of year) by mowing and collecting leaves in our back yard.
I’m not surprised my weight rebounded today—it usually does after a significant whoosh, but also because I did a lot of physical work yesterday on a home improvement project. I feel sore in some major muscle groups, but it’s a good sore reminding me that I got my body moving, not an “I think I injured myself” kind of sore.
Hi RunningRedHead! I just wanted to say hi as I remember you from when I was on the monthly thread when it was more active. We have an active thread under "Chicks Up For A Challenge" called "Lets Get To Goal Weight in 2022." There are the three of us active on it and others seem to come and go. I joined that thread over a year ago knowing I wouldn't be at goal in 2021 but I gave myself a goal for that year and worked on that. We will do a new one for 2023 as well, so please feel free to join us!
