Busy Weekend + Health Journey Day 69

Hey everyone, how are you all doing? It was a pretty busy weekend here with trying to get inspection ready. I'd love for them to come and get it over with tomorrow, but more time to get ready would be nice too. I just would have loved a specific day most of all. The weekend was pretty rainy and cold. It started raining Saturday evening and was still raining this morning. Now I have alerts of a freeze warning. Really stinks that the cold has arrived. I think there are a few days this week that are supposed to get up into the 60s. Anyways -- health journey wise; I weighed in yesterday and saw a big drop on the scale - so am almost down 25 pounds with that weight. I was up some this morning though, not sure why. What did I eat yesterday? Meal 1 - about 9 oz salmon with some butter Meal 2 - 6 slices of bacon with a sauce of mayo/sugar free bbq sauce (weird, but was good) Snack - a little more butter Macros: 1,174 calories, 2 carbs, 96 fat, 70 protein I needed a little more protein but didn't want to cook or have a large amount that is in the protein shakes. We'll see how today goes.

You are doing great. You will probably fluctuate some days.

@MommyOfEli2013 ........Exercise is helpful so that doesn't happen as much. I lost 85 pounds in about 6 months but I also jogged 7 miles a day too

@celticeagle that's a good amount to lose in that time. That's a lot to jog daily

Thank you, just wish I hadn't gone up, but also I usually am wearing a tank top and shorts, so my sweater and sweatpants could weigh more lol You'd take the cold 42 degrees? I'd trade instantly lol. Not looking forward to winter at all.

@AmbiePam I don't mind cool, so the 60s would be okay. Maybe even 50s...but once you need a jacket/coat I'll pass lol.

That is true, and without even working out yet.

Almost 25 pounds down is really great, congrats on that. Don't stress about the little bump this morning, the scale goes up and down all the time. Hope the inspection goes smooth and stay warm with that freeze coming.

I know, I just use it as data to tell me I didn't do something right yesterday lol. We got the heater out for the could weather. And I just hope it gets done with tomorrow. Should be okay, it's not a housekeeping one at least
