Fall roses from my garden today! This is my first attempt at recording on Saturday my average of seven days worth of weigh-ins. I will try this approach again this coming week, but I want to report on how it went. It was not a great week on all levels. I made it to the gym only once. I did not go for any long walks. My knee is hurting and was worse after lifting, so I am so discouraged about it again. I only logged my food on Tuesday and partially on Thursday. On Thursday I had a truly horrible day and ended up eating mountains of food more than I should have. All the savory and sweet I could eat didn’t fix the problems and disappointments and emotional pain and worry, but it sure made me feel worse. Friday I ate nothing. Exactly the way to fix a binge in an unhealthy way, but I wasn’t hungry. I worked four days this week at one of my jobs on my feet all day dealing with customers, receiving shipping, lifting and hauling merchandise, and keeping a smile. The other day I did housekeeping… not my own house. I am disappointed. I am being totally honest… nothing fake here. But, not being back to my goal weight sure does not help me feel better. I have choices I could make each day that are healthy and helpful. Let a new week commence! A better 7 days may be ahead! Sunday: 151.6 Monday: 151.8 Tuesday: 148.8 Pizza late at night Wednesday: Early appointment and I forgot to weigh. Homemade pizza Thursday: 152.4 Miserable, rotten day… gain next morning. Friday 154.4 Ate nothing... Led to a loss the next morning. Saturday 149.2 Reminder to all: To gain a pound of fat takes consuming about 3500 extra, not utilized calories. To lose a pound of fat requires eating about 3500 calories less than utilized calories. There are many other ways that show a gain or loss on the scale... waste in or out, water retention or release, food storage in a tummy or no food storage in said tummy. This is a process. This was not a week to emulate! New goals: Go to the gym 3 times even if I don’t work my knee. Record all food daily… Good, bad, and the ugly. Continue to weigh daily with the plan of recording and reporting my average next Saturday. Along with being super, beyond busy, I am not feeling as connected since I am not recording my weight daily. This is just an observation. It might be helpful for me to post something more regularly on my journal even if it is not related to my weight... just to keep more in touch. I feel horrible not supporting my friends. So sorry! I hope I will have more time… or at least manage my time more wisely this week!

As always your roses are gorgeous ❤
I'm sorry you're feeling discouraged & having the pain in your knee. My knee was bothering me for a few days....arthritis I think. Since I don't run...only walk, I was able to work thru the pain.
A short update every day or 2 about how you're feeling can help keep you connected. It may also help the feelings of frustration. I'll be sending positive thoughts your way this week. Hope you have a nice weekend 😊

I feel so out of touch with you lately. :( I have so much little stuff but I am going to send an email soon. Maybe during one of my long ass overnight shifts Monday and Tuesday. Sorry something crappy is happening. 😘💕

Your roses are so beautiful, Melissa. I have all but wiped mine out with neglect. Maybe you need to shift over to weight machines only for your legs for while so you have a more controlled lift? Not what you want, but at least you'd still be moving.

Great colors, how do you manage to keep the roses from being damaged by the rain? I think you are being to hard on yourself. You're trying something new, no big deal if it needs some tweaking here and there, especially if life is serving you a few lemons as side dishes. +1 lb in a week is zilch.

Sorry about the sucky week, Melissa. You are doing great and you look amazing. May the Force be with you this week.

Yes, something else is at play as it would be most insane to consume 0 cals and drop 5.2lbs X 3500 cals/lb (18,000+ cals) in one day. 👍

Didn’t you just come back from vacation? I personally find it difficult to get back on track, both before and after vacations (or any event really). Just let it go and do better today. I weigh daily but only record on Monday’s. Your roses are beautiful! 👊

Hang in there girl. Of all the women I know on here, you’re one of the top at overcoming life’s troubles. You have never given up and to me that’s success. Failure imo is quitting, and you’re no failure and definitely not a quitter. Wishing you better days ahead. ❤️🙏

Good looking roses Melissa!!! It's okay not to be perfect sometimes. You have made great progress and are only have a few pounds away from your goal weight. You got this!!!

But you sent us roses anyway! In spite of your crappy week, you didn't forget to share the beauty with us. Easy my friend, stop, take a breath and let it all go. Tomorrow is a new day, hoping it is a better one for you and for me. (((HUGS))) 💜💚💛

Thank you so much, Sherry! I am sorry your knee was bugging you. I think I just feel sorry for myself that it has been a year now of trouble and it isn't really resolved. I really appreciate your understanding and encouragement! The kind support really means so much to me.
Princess! I am looking forward to hearing from you when you have a moment. Isn't life so filled with up and downs? Just have to go with the flow as much as possible.
Katsolo, I really don't know why I am having such a flair up right now. I have not pushed hard, but I did have some very long and rather intense walks the week before, so maybe that just kicked stuff off and I have to wait until the inflammation calms down. I will be careful! I am still thinking about finding a place to swim. I think that would be ideal but expensive and super time consuming. We will see!

YetAnotherAccountLOL98, that is very sweet comment! Thank you! I know absolutely I need to respond to stress and sorrow without eating inappropriately. It never helps, but is so easy to turn too when there is a lifetime of poor eating habits. Tomorrow! :)

No worries!!!! Also its probably hard going back to work after a great European vacation. I know I enjoying retirement and just working part time only at home on my businesses as i want. Keep up your diet, But dont overkill on exercise. If your working in a warehpuse and doing cleaning gigs, chances are you are getting enough exercise.

Eral! Sadly, I think I wasn't hard enough on myself! :) I surely didn't do well this week, but I feel it helps to just own up to it and work to do better. The "lemons" were kind of a main course this week, but... I can do better! As for the roses, they begin to look terrible in a lot of rain, but for now I have a few still looking fresh and lovely! I will have blooms until we get a hard frost even with the rain... that will be pretty constant now. They just don't last very long. :) Dear Jen! Thank you! I want to do better! I want to feel better! :)

Sk, I did it... not great, but I did the averaging thing because of you! :) Hahahah! Next week will be better! Thank you, Sara! Well, I have been back for a month, so that really shouldn't be my excuse anymore. I was doing pretty well for a couple weeks, but this truly was a rotten one. I'll get back to normal I hope this week. Wifey! You are so kind to say that. I surely won't quit. I think I am a little bit of a whiner from time to time... life is kind of difficult sometimes. I don't feel very strong, but I won't stop fighting this stupid battle with weight and fitness. It is up and down... like life. John, you are such an inspiration to me! You are so steady and careful. I don't know how you do it. Someday I will learn better!

I love how honest and raw your post is. Triumph is easy to post, disappointment, no so much...Keep moving forward and it will happen.
You are truly an inspiration, never quit! 💜💜💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜💜

Dear Shir! What a week... We can do this! One day at a time! We are truly in this together! Hugs from me too!!! Thank you, Meta! That is very sweet! Thank you Main coon! I think it is more troubles in life than sorrow at vacation being over at the moment, but I do wish so badly I could run away and go back!!! Dreaming of going away! I am pretty active with work, but I still know I need to work out... and I know my poor diet can outstrip my activity in a heartbeat if I am not careful. I am going to try to motivate myself that I am going to a formal event for the Brain Injury Alliance. My daughter and I are going as guests. It is black tie and evening gowns. I am borrowing a dress from my older daughter and I want to look my best. It is two weeks from now and I need my tummy to be flat! Motivation!
