Doing good but yes, somehow gaining. Excited to remeasure on 6/1. Lots of compliments today from people I haven't seen in a couple months. Always a boost. Thanks for asking.  

Probably just fluid. The body is crazy. It’s so small you’re probably about to drop 1-2 pounds 😊😊 

I feel like every time you go up a tiny bit you drop like 1.6 pounds after. 

I’m in the mode of gain lose gain lose gain lose the same .6!! Driving me nuts! 🤪 

Wifey, for me that would be a very short drive! 

No biggie... 

Ok currently driving back to seeds Chris!!😜 

Chris, as I recall, you were in the car as well. 😘 

Wifey, you are safe. We are heavily guarded! 

Phew! Good. I don’t own a gun! Canadian here. 😮 

My guess is that the recent drops have been consistent and pretty large so you're just evening out and will have another drop soon. Weight loss is rarely linear. Water can fill fat cells masking fat loss and even cause a gain temporarily. 

Thanks, dear. It's fine. I just wish I knew why one day I am retaining no water and the next my ankles are fat and gross. I don't feel like I am doing anything differently but it definitely holds the number on the scale or increases it.  

Have you ever read an article titled, "Why the Scale Lies"? You can GOOGLE it. I think. I found it helpful in the past. 

That’s where I’m coming from too. Every time you have these small random gaines you drop it like it’s hot almost right away. I stopped weighing as much as I used to because that drives me nuts lol. You know how your clothes are fitting you better than before. Our bodies are super complex and what nat cause retention one day it lets go the very next. I say be confident in what your hubby has taught you and be confident in yourself that you know not to let these tiny gains mean anything because you worked hard to get to where you are at now. I’m a momma of 3 as well and I went through the same. Now we’re not just a mommy of 3. I am Jennifer and I have 3 children and a husband. I’m just now figuring out myself for me... and my family.  

The best thing I have learned from this family is everything and not everything but trying everything and seeing what works for me as an individual. We’re all different but you are in good hands and we all support you. I had a bad ass body before having my babies. I didn’t always have that unless I was super active. I have diabetes type I and II in the immediate family my daughter is insulin resistant and has PCOS so I do believe I’m very carb sensitive. I’m 38 and finally feeling like I have a grasp on weight loss and changing my eating to something I actually prefer. 

If I’m corny I blame it on the Percocet 😂😂😩 however, I’m a healthier person being here and a happier person and a more fit mommy and wife... being here. Sometimes this place can seem so caddy but corrects itself in a hot minute just like our weight fluctuates in tiny numbers up and down. 

Thanks, JC. I have never had a bad ass body- bad- yes- bad ass- NO. LOL. The pregnancies did little more than allow me to eat myself back up to a higher weight- but I did my damage long before the kids. I don't love this site- I cannot lie. But I DO love tracking my weights and measurements and I am thankful for a few people on here who are real... you being one of them. Enjoy the percocet! smiling emoji! Goodnight! 

❤️ hey I feel like we have a lot in common and I’m enjoying being on the same journey around the same time. Believe me it wasn’t that long ago I almost ducked tail out of here being so embarrassed because sometimes people just don’t know when to stop and the more their post is commented on the braver they get. Sadly the same people who did this where the ones I was tipping my hat too and followed. It turned into being the First Lady of FS and president and well I’m sure you saw it. Super uncomfortable. So I chose to lay low and be supportive to all and still learn from them and others. I let my stats and hard work shine my light and proving I can do this. I hear ya on some of the bs but don’t ever let it dim your light  

Maybe I will enjoy the Percocet when it stops doing the job on my pain lol. No I’m really just a truth teller and get kinda corny and try to keep things light hearted but still speak from the heart. 

Good night friend 😊
