Missed a few posts but have worked out the past 3 days and been steady at 189.7 just haven’t been online…stalled out weight wise for about a week now. An easy cut will be the peanut butter from my yogurt bowls, see how that goes over a week. Nice being in a spot where I can easily assess that I’ve stalled and make the adjustments without getting annoyed about it.
Bringing my own food to the Super Bowl. Everything is a choice and mine is to stay locked in on my goals!!! Hope everyone has a good day!
Workout didn’t feel great today. Got to bed very late last night and up early plus didn’t eat enough yesterday. Expected. Nice scale progress today. 7-day average is officially below 190!
