Hello, everyone!!!

I'm back after having fallen off the bandwagon for the past few months. I have gained almost 30 lbs since we moved here to Arizona in June and realized that I was getting out of control. I stopped tracking, stopped drinking water, started emotional binging due to real life things (which I usually never do, even when not on track), and just stopped being active altogether. It's been horrible. So, I'm grabbing a hold of the reins again before I do any more damage. I just don't want to completely destroy all the progress I'd made this Spring, where I'd lost 75 lbs -- now I'm back up to just 48 lbs lost overall, but that is still a good chunk I'd like to keep off. So, here's to getting back on track ASAP! Hoping to set my normal goal of 10 lbs down for the month to jumpstart myself back into the grind.


----------------------

Total Month Weight Loss: 16.6 lbs.


Week One
01: 249.0 - TOM. (Great way to start off the month, lol.)
02: 245.8 - TOM. (Major dip must be from being on plan with food, water, and working out helping to flush out some of the bloat.)
03: NWI. - TOM. (Friends arrived in town last night and went out to eat...sure it was a gain!)
04: 242.8

----------------------------
End of Week One: 241.2
Total Loss for Week Two: 0.2 lbs.

Week Four
22: 235.4 -- TOM. (Not sure why it is starting again already, boooo...)
23: 236.6 -- TOM. (Sooo bloated today, ugh.)
24: 234.4 -- TOM. (Feeling a little less puffy.)
25: 234.4 -- TOM. (Felt bloated again today, but at least no gain.)
26: 233.4 -- TOM. (Feeling really lethargic and foggy today.)
27: 232.4 -- TOM. (More normal today...hoping TOM ends soon.)
28: 233.2 -- TOM. (Should be the last day.)
----------------------------
End of Week Three: 236.2
Total Loss for Week Four: 3.0 lbs.

Hi everyone! I'm back for October, with a slightly lower goal -- it's my birthday and Canadian Thanksgiving this month. I'm not planning on eating food that's not on my plan, but I do expect to have higher calorie days here and there.

Starting weight: 247.5
Goal weight: 240

01. 246.4 (-1.1)
02. 246.6 (+0.2)
03. 247.2 (+0.6)
04. 247.2 (No Change)
05. 247.2 (No Change)

Ophelia It is so nice to see you back. I am so sorry to hear that things have been stressful for you lately, but it is great that you are getting back on track while you are still down 48 lbs!! I have never been able to do that, so I have a huge amount of admiration for you!! Oh, and it is also my TOM, hopefully getting it out of the way early will provide us with good loses for the rest of the month!

I am going have a busy month with a vacation in the middle off it. I want to be out of 2s by the end of the month. That would be a 7 pound loss. So 7 pounds is the goal.
