That sounds like more chaos than you needed. Still, I hope you have a great time!!

Starting weight: 268.0 lbs 03/25: 265.8 lbs 04/01: 265.8 lbs 04/08: 262.8 lbs 04/15: —- 04/22: 265.8 lbs 04/26: 263.4 lbs   I am going to start weighing in on Fridays I think, as my weekends are full of salty game snacks and that always seems to tick me up for Mondays. I am still being more moderate in their portions than I used to be (kind of amazing, really) but the water weight is water weight.    Super happy to see a loss this week as I’ve been tired and eating like a goblin (no wheat, but lots of cheese and pepperoni and cucumbers). My cycle showed up yesterday for the first time in over a year, so the fatigue makes sense as does the goblin-mode food. I am off for a two day weekend this weekend so I am going to do some batch cooking so that I have easier, healthier options for next week. I have been super interested in a gochujang fish recipe I found. Hopefully it is as good as it looks.    Hope you are all hanging in there!

Lift. 2x week. It didn't work last time, let's try it again, eh? Monday & Saturday mornings. It doesn't even have to be the program, FFS. Just move something heavy-ish up and down a few times. Walk. 2x week. Before work, when possible to avoid the heat. Alcohol. None on weeknights. Snacks. Think about when/why. This is often due to boredom. Fix the boredom with something other than food.   ----   Yesterday was not a lifting day. I did get a walk in No alcohol Snacks in check. Big lunch, though.   Today Paver estimate person has come and gone. Essentially useless since all they did was take some photos and say the person who would actually be doing the repair would probably need to come back out and would definitely be calling with more questions. So why did you come, exactly?   Still need to: Do dishes/empty dishwasher Go grocery shopping Do laundry Litter Fabric shopping and working on my own sewing project isn't going to happen, especially since I've just looked outside and the lawn needs mowing. Sigh.   Tomorrow Weekend event/meetup thing in the afternoon/evening means not a lot of time in the day to do much of anything. Maybe finish up any laundry that doesn't get done, but that's about it.  

I find Lose It much friendlier and warmer than MFP if that makes sense. 

Bodies are weird! You’re still moving downward!

Curse the fickleness of the weather! I woke up briefly this morning to the sound of a lovely downpour, but I went back to sleep and not it isn't raining.  How am I supposed to decide what to do today if I base the choice on what the weather is doing when I wake up, and it's doing different things the two times? I'm calling my local weatherman and lodging a complaint!   If I'm honest, I think I was trying to come up with an excuse not to go to the museum. The pills help with the agoraphobia, but it's still there. I know I won't go tomorrow; painting class. I might go Sunday...   Plan for today Shower Put lotion on feet Listen to praise music Change cat litter Utah Museum of Fine Arts Dr. Appointment Make grocery order Drink bottle of plain water Brush and floss In bed by 10   It opens in less than an hour, need to get moving

What a great update, Sal!! I'm so excited for things! I really hope the interview goes well and you land the job!!

Hope you are feeling better soon and the painting goes well!

This week has been even worse.  My tracking spreadsheet is littered with red and orange.  I had one nice day after the migraine and then started to feel sick with some head cold.   Food has been relegated to comfort foods and whatever DDG puts in front of me.  Plus our kitchen is getting painted on Monday so DDG has been working diligently to get some things packed up so it's out of the way.  The stove has been covered in piles of dishes for me to sort.  There was some Domino's.  I've been working from home since Thursday so activity levels are at a low.   We have some things planned for Saturday so hopefully I'll be feeling up to them.      I hope you all are having a wonderful week and all your goals are just sliding into place.  

I'm finding it difficult to update routinely and I'm not sure why.  But catching up now.     Definitely hit some hiccups last week.   Wednesday was a food day at work.  I had a good weigh in that morning and felt motivated to be reasonable.. but then there were cheesy potatoes and bacon wrapped lil smokies, and 3 kinds of cake.  It was far from reasonable.  But dinner plans changed that night so I just had a banana.    Then started getting a migraine Friday but what busted the deficit goal was leftover banana cake and some treats that a customer dropped by.  The migraine does make decision making more difficult.   The migraine lasted through Saturday with a hangover lasting until Monday.   We grilled a bunch of meats the Sunday before and had yummy leftovers all week, burgers, brats, and some chicken.   Saturday we went to a concert (Hairball - an 80's rock cover band).  We had plans to meet up with DDGs brother for dinner but I spent most of the day sleeping off the migraine so our dinner plans never materialized.  DDG and I just grabbed some fast food philly subs for dinner.   Mostly got all fitness in.  We had an extra walk planned for Friday and migraine hadn't presented itself but I could tell I just wasn't up for it so we skipped it.
