That's enough for a Friday. Have a great day, everyone!
I got on mine last night and seriously was only able to go for 15 minutes! I was disgusted with myself! How pathetic is that?! I just tried to keep reminding myself that it is 15 minutes more than I did the day before... I cannot even imagine doing this much before work! You are a Rock Star!2 -

15 minutes is a good start! And it's certainly better than nothing. Last January, I was lazy and wasn't walking on the treadmill at all. I had to start slow and work up to where I am now. Baby steps.4 -

Last august I joined a gym, and I could not even do 10 minutes on the treadmill!! Now, I can easily do 60-90 minutes. So even though you say it was only 15 minutes, that is a awesome start!! Think of how far you will be next year at this time!!3 -
Thursday
1. rest to try and get rid of this cold I rested a lot yesterday --- and feel SO much better today! Still not feeling great, but compared to yesterday, a big improvement!
2. try not to snap at hubby and daughter. Rest instead Laid in bed and worked on business expenses - something I just hate doing! But watched "shark tank", and drank my Orange juice, and got a lot done
3. drink water
JFT, Friday
1. drink water
2. eat as healthy as possible, but focus more on getting over this cold
@Bex made me realize yesterday that success is NOT about what the scale says. SUCCESS is measured in so many ways. (thank you Bex!),
SO I am doing what @Bex suggested -- list FIVE things I HAVE accomplished this year. I would love to have you guys all do the same --- we have ALL been so successful, and again, I cannot thank you guys for the help in all of us improving our selves!
This is some of the things I have accomplished this year
1. Starting weight January 2017 was 217.7. Today, my weight is at 196. Down more than 20 pounds! Even though that is more than I was in October (I was at 188), I have to still consider this a success!
2. I now go to the gym on average of 5 times a week. I used to HATE going to the gym
3. I started out on the treadmill doing less than 10 minutes -- and was so out of breath. Today, I can easily do 60-90 minutes on the treadmill, while chatting with the friends that I have made at the gym
4. My speed on the treadmill when I started was about 3.0, with the incline at 0. Now, I can easily set my incline at 10.0, with speed set at 4.0 . (All the while, talking with the new friends I have made at the gym)
5. I consistently get on MFP -- thank you guys for that! If it were not for this thread, I probably would have quit last April, and most likely gained back what I had lost
SO look for a new thread on January 1st!! A new fresh start!! Next year, I am going to get those last 25 pounds off, and reach my goal. Not only the goal on the scale, but I plan to also list non-scale victories I want to do next year!

Today: 175.6
Well, while I was absolutely miserable yesterday, I had a whoosh as a result of staying in bed for most of the day. I didn't go to the gym but I did pace the house enough to get my 10k steps in. Still don't think it was worth it :P
Given how little I've run my lines for the play, I was really happy that went as well as it did. I should be able to be off-book when we start up again.OConnell5483 wrote: »I got on mine last night and seriously was only able to go for 15 minutes! I was disgusted with myself!

Every little bit helps. Right now I'm working toward being able to run a mile without stopping. You may want to see if it's more effective to go longer at a slower pace. Baby steps! Small changes are often more sustainable. You got this!
PS - what mystery are you currently reading?3 -
@clicketykeys I've read that muscle weighs more than fat, so maybe that what is causing a higher number on the scale.
Today: 181.6: YOWZA. So I think most of that is probably water weight, but it's definitely discouraging. The thing is, I've trimmed up a LOT, and I've got some definition in my arms and shoulders that I'm really enjoying. Which is great, don't get me wrong, but the thing is, I need to make sure that I don't let that become a distraction and start backsliding.

That’s a good start!!
Do you remember that 40 min video I posted with the 3 sets of cardio and then strength?
I could only do the first set to begin with! 2 weeks later I did 2 sets and I reckon had I not got pregnant I would be killing it right now and have an amazing *kitten*!
How many mins did you do yesterday? 0?
If so then you’ve already done 15 times better than yesterday!
Keep at it! Bet you any money that in 2 weeks you’ll be doing more than 15 mins!3 -

So glad you got your mind in the right frame!
Sometimes it takes someone else to see it and say something because you can’t see it yourself!
My five achievements are:
1. From the start of January to mid May I lost 8lbs! (Then became pregnant)
2. Consistently stuck at something for a YEAR even in the hardest times!
3. Made some amazing friends! (I don’t really have friends IRL)
4. I’ve actually started to come out of my depression. Not sure how I’ve managed it but I certainly don’t think I feel as bad as I used to!
5. Grown a baby! Without losing the plot too much haha4 -

Probably not, unfortunately. For the same volume, muscle doesn't weigh significantly more than fat, and it takes awhile to build muscle - especially for women.
Additionally - today I was back down a significant amount. So that adds to my hypothesis that it was water retention! ;D lol how I *wish* it was that easy to lose several pounds of fat! but alas, biology! my old nemesis! *shakes my fist at the sky*
I like weighing every day because it helps me get used to those jumps. Where I get nervous is when I see a slow upward trend over several days or a week. The "critical creep," I call it.3 -

My FIVE things accomplished in 2017:
1. I started writing in a gratitude journal every night...5 things I'm grateful for that day. This has actually become a habit and I can't go to sleep without doing it now! Sometimes the things I write are a big deal and sometimes it's things like having hot water and a roof over my head. I live in a place of gratitude now.
2. I began reading daily chapters out of the Simple Abundance book, which helped me realize that less is sometimes more. I have found a way to be content with my life. I have begun simplifying life and letting go of stress.
3. For several years now, I have struggled with sleep due to stress and anxiety. I just couldn't turn my brain off. I was exhausted and feeling physically ill. Now, I have a wind-down bedtime routine and sleep like a rock.
4. I have met new friends in this thread whom I look forward to checking in with every day! I rarely go on Facebook anymore. I have learned to pursue positive people and cut the negativity out of my life. I now walk away from negativity.
5. The biggest best thing I changed this year is jobs. I left an organization after 24 years of employment and took a leap of faith, taking a job at a different organization in order to get away from stress that was making me physically sick. I have been there for 5 weeks now and went from working 60 to 65 hours per week down to a straight 40 hr/week! 8:00-4:30 and I'm out the door leaving work at work! My stress is gone and I am truly happy every single day now.
So, although I was on a journey in 2017 to take back my life, which I thought at that time meant losing weight, I took my life back in other ways. Goodbye stress. Goodbye anxiety. Goodbye working during 12-14 hour days and on weekends! ...and Hello 2018, Part 2, of taking back my life!!!! Body, Mind & Spirit! It all works together.
Thank you all. If it weren't for you, I would have quit MFP a long time ago! You've helped me more than you will EVER know!2 -
clicketykeys wrote: »PS - what mystery are you currently reading?
I'm just starting a book by Blake Pierce called "Once Hunted".
And I agree with you that baby steps are best! I'll just keep adding minutes to my time and work my way up to where I want to be. Just think, by this time next year I might be able to jog a few minutes even!2 -
5 Accomplishments of 2017
1. I wanted to make wedding gowns for each of my children before I wasn’t able to. This year I made the last one for my youngest daughter.
2. Since March I’ve slowly lost 24.2 pounds. I’ve found it much slower and more difficult now that I’m older but I’m stubborn (sounds like committed).
3. Speaking of committed, I decided that I’m worth doing the things I want to do so this fall I placed a deposit on next year’s craft retreat, without guilt.
4. I’ve challenged myself to get into my studio at least twice per week. I am happier when I can do this, not to mention
5. I didn’t give up my search on MFP until I found an incredible bunch of people that are so supportive of each other. Thank-you to each of you.

Ok, didn't complete everything, but I improved. I was only 1 glass shy of 48 oz. of water. I'm embarrassed about the stretching. I could have done that, I just kept putting it off and it didn't get done. No excuse there. Same with wall sits. I did 3. Today is a new day and at least one of those x's will turn to a check mark today.

1. I wanted to make wedding gowns for each of my children before I wasn’t able to. This year I made the last one for my youngest daughter.
OMG - you sew wedding gowns! How exciting! I used to sew all my own clothes, but now I mostly just sew quilts. I don't think I could ever tackle a wedding gown. That is so great that you can do this! I would love to see a picture of it if you have one!3 -

@mamaof3boys18 Welcome. This thread has really helped me. I just have an observation and a question with no judgement at all involved.
You have an incredibly busy day and may I say wow!? I notice you're up at an insane time yet you only eat between 11:30 and 3:30, so basically during work hours, and then bed at 9.
Does that mean every day you're eating 4 hours and fasting 20? Is that correct?
When I don't eat or drink often enough I find it contributes to tiredness. I see you're only sleeping 6 hours as well on top of busy but wondered if that might be happening for you.3 -

YES! It makes me cherish the rare days I feel somewhat “normal” and energized. I had a small anxiety induced binge last night that just set the tone for the day. I got my workout in and my laundry folded though so that’s a plus. I will probably clean out my bathroom tomorrow. I really suck at life
