    Hey sometimes we have to listen to our bodies - that's what I'm doing starting next week...hopefully as long as they're steady, the slow will stop bothering us :)

    YAY for a loss, and on we go! Halfway through MM and we're treckin' away! :)

    Happy Monday Omad friends!

    Had a good weekend but a ton of salt I am sure so this week will be pushing the water to unload some of that.

    It has been 7 weeks since my knee surgery and I graduated from PT last week but was told I really needed to work on making my knee/quad/leg stronger in order to have the most successful recovery. So, over the weekend, I got the spin bike out of storage. Spinning is one of my fave forms of exercise and it is also good for this recovery. So....I will be adding that in, and just realizing that my losses may slow for a while. I don't plan on eating my exercise cals back - but I do need to know what they are. Even with 1200 a day in cals my weight is still listed as -1 per week. That is not what I want, but I think for me, at this time, it is realistic and I may be super late to join Brenda <3 in maintain but right now, I have to just do what is going to work......And Tracey I am totally stealing your new slogan, just weigh less than I did last week.

    So friends, let's still kick some butt and finish out March strong ---choose what works for you and go for it!

    Love ya'll <3

    It was a good day, I worked remotely yesterday and sometimes that leads to breaking the fast earlier than I should but I held out and waited until my meal. I am enjoying spinning again it has been great for my recovery but to be honest, I am not sure how the scale will react tomorrow with the increased activity. I am really going to try not to focus on that and take a breath realizing the whoosh will come should the scale stall...…*easier said than done though*

    I feel ya babe - with the start of this 30 day challenge I can just FEEL my muscles trying to hold onto water...it's so hard to know that this will affect the number and still be ok with it - I keep reminding myself that the number means nothing if I don't look good naked :D:D:D

    Hi guys,

    Sorry had a super busy cra cra weekend and just now able to catch up...…

    Weigh in on Friday not to great......168.5. so just .5 for the week which is tragically horribly sad, but I have been spinning about 4-5 days per week and I know when I add the exercise back in my body will not be happy for a while...so I was prepared and even thought I might gain.....so the -.5 is okay....hopefully it will be better this week.....

    Not sure what my April goal will be am going to be thinking about that...…

    Happy Monday!

    Description/Photo of Meals: Morning some jello salad with pecans. Dinner was homemade chicken parmesan, noodles, sautéed spinach, and salad. A chocolate cookie and a couple of peeps to finish it off.


    Overall weekend thoughts: It was a good weekend I really tried to be mindful and not graze especially on Sunday......I did pretty good overall with that. Prob didn't drink enough water though.....Would love to be at 165 by Friday but very doubtful that I can pull a 3.5 loss this week...….Not sure if I'll get a bigger woosh from the exercise or not this week ---but I am having to do it so I will have to take whatever loss (albeit tiny) that comes with it.....

    Hugs to ya'll have a great week!

    LadyBlanks Posts: 1,070 Member
    I think mini-fasting is a great idea. I may need to adopt that. If I can get my mind right, I can do it. Will be working on that for April and beyond.

    I think for me it might just take having some staple mini meals that I can have without thinking about it.
