5. I'm just worried about reaching a plateau as my metabolism slows down

So I can't make my end of the year goal. I got a letter of clearance from the pain management clinic to go back to the gym. I had a prepaid membership and if I have that doctor's letter they will credit me with the months I missed.

I was going to the gym 3-4 times a week so going back should help.

The big challenge is that we are going on a cruise next week and I will have to be very, VERY careful what I eat. We're not paying for WiFi on the ship so I can't keep my food diary or check calories.

Last weekend when we went downstate for Mom's funeral I couldn't get the MyFitnessPal app to work on my old tablet so couldn't check calories then, either. I kept notes, though and found that I was ultra conservative. I stayed UNDER 1000 calories each day (MyFitnessPal does NOT like that).

If I can do that on the cruise, I will be very happy!
