I am so sorry that I didn't post on Saturday. I have been in a really bad place (emotionally) and just had no energy for anything. It was my son's 8th birthday so I made sure I was mommy, but that's about all I could handle. Please don't eliminate me. I will do better.

Well the good thing about March Break is that I can try earlier classes and get to the gym earlier. Today I did a HIIT class as well as my step class. I am tired but feel great.

Hi, new to this group, sorry I haven't posted at all yet, I haven't been tracking for about a week, and I know I went over all weekend. My son had a hockey tournament out of town, but hockey is done now for the year, and I hope to get my poop in a group now.
My starting weight for this week is 184.8, I honestly can't remember my starting weight I reported when I joined this group.4 -

Track: Yes
Calories: No
Exercise: Definitely not unless studying all day is exercise.
Water: Probably not. Will get back to focusing on this during finals week. I just drink as much as I can.

So I was actually much better this weekend than usual. I got on the scale this morning and it's moved further down. So that's great! Yay. I feel that I'm finally back on track.
On another note, I've noticed that sometimes I'll be good all day but when I come home it's extremely difficult to resist the delicious food that my mom cooks for the family and have a salad or veggie-filled meal instead. My parents are also both overweight and my little 10 year old brother is also getting kind of chubby. The only thin person is my other brother who is a year younger than me but he doesn't eat particularly healthily either. I've been eating much healthier the past few months than previously and I think my family has noticed. I finally got a tape measure for body measurements and I measured my little brothers height and weight and found out he's in the overweight category for his age group. I told my family that it's not a coincidence that the majority of the family is overweight. It indicates an issue that we have as a family. There's an obvious pattern. I think we all overeat or at least we're not feeding ourselves nutrient filled foods and instead we're just eating for taste rather than thinking "I'm going to eat this because it's nutrient-rich for my body." Of course, certain family members are better at this (my dad for example loves to eat stuff that might not taste good but he knows is good for him) than others. They agreed with me. So we've decided to make a change as a family since we've been getting concerned for my little brother's weight gain as well. I think this is really great and a step in the right direction. Last night I got everyone's starting weights and we've decided to plan ahead with our meals. It's a lot of work and commitment and I'm going to have to be the lead 'planner' but I think it's worth it and hopefully we can maintain eating healthily in the long run. Sorry for such a long post but it's exciting and I thought I'd write it down. I think this will make it easier on me as well though if the whole family is on board instead of just me resisting everything all of the time. If you're read this far, first of all thank you, and do you have any tips? 6 -

Wow!!
That's so awesome you have your whole family on board! This could be a great support system for you and for them! I know what my mom does, is meal plan for the week, and then go get the ingredients in her weekly grocery shopping. So if you plan healthy meals, then you can go get the ingredients for them. It defeats the excuse of "well I don't have all the stuff for it and I don't feel like going out to get it". That was always my favorite excuse....

Hey hockeymom, welcome to the team. Don't be shy now.99hockeymom wrote: »Hi, new to this group
@ssssanaaaa That sounds fantastic. It can be so hard to challenge the family's normal. I tried and failed to bring my family along with me on this. Won't forget my mum looking at me indignantly.. "But I'm not fat" she said.. Uhhh.. No mum, of course not I says.. It's just, we could all do to be a bit fitter.. right.. I says. lol. Then my dad stayed with me while in town for a couple of days. He watched me eat a days worth of keto food and boom, he was all in. Dove into keto head first and lasted about a week. (just couldn't live without sandwiches lmao) I ended up begging him to not dabble with a high fat diet if he wasn't all in..
But I digress.. It's awesome you have your family looking at better health as a group. Congrats and GL to you all.
@ the team cap and co-cap. I must apologize for something I do at least once a week. I cut and paste my daily post framework from either mine or someone elses previous daily, then just fill out the details. But I often forget to edit something like the day lol. Hence my monday post having Saturday on it. Srry about that.

I had a difficult weekend traveling. I was on the road for about 5 hours for all three days. I made a point to do laps at the rest stops. I tried making better snack options than usual. I definitely did not drink enough water and am still feeling the effects of it. I did better today though.

Track: Yes
Calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes, 1 hour Snatch "practice"
Water Intake: 99 oz
Day/Goals: 1 hour Snatch "practice" -- what really happened was far better than that. I finally FINALLY got the snatch right and moved up to real "bumper" plates. FINALLY! It's been 8 weeks of trying and not succeeding. Now I can work on actually snatching heavy. REALLY happy about this. I mean my gym performance lately has been great, all around great--been hitting and exceeding all of my weight goals and I knew I would get there, but today I decided to try something a little different and it finally happened, super excited.2 -

Hey everyone! Sorry, I just do not have a lot of time this week and will be gone from Friday the 16th till Monday the 26th. I want to read everyone's updates and progress but just no time right now. Sorry!
I will weigh in on Friday but will most likely be missing weigh in for the 23rd.
Everything's going great though! The hardest part will be getting back on track after a vacay. You guys all know how that can be! Keep at it team, you guys rock!!

Day/Goals: Good strong day today. Finished with a few hours spent cooking up portioned meals for the rest of the week.
Track: Yes
Calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes
Water Intake: Yes
Last week I bought myself one of those food vacuum seal thingys. I don't have any refrigeration out in the bush yet, and the hope is I can freeze these sealed portions to get more life out of them in my cooler and spend more time on the land without compromising my dietary plans. I'd actually be happy enough to hunt, but the feral animals on my land are riddled with parasites, the bunnies have myxi or worse and well.. I kinda like having the kangaroos around.
It sure doesn't look very impressive in the photo lol, not considering the hours I put into it all haha. In front are 484cal portions of beef bolognese with cheese, and one of those 612cal chicken meals I posted about a few weeks ago. At the back is my first batch of keto choc icecream and on the left a few lb of scratch made butter chicken.
I'd like to say I will add a bit of salad to one of those parcels.. But lets be realistic here. I'll just heat one up in a billy full of water then eat it straight out of the bag while sitting by the fire lol.

@Fyreside , What are you talking about?? This looks SUPER impressive. Seriously awesome. I know that was a lot of work. As of now I'm too lazy for all of that but YOU ROCK! Back when I used to camp and backpack I would just buy the dehrydrated meals. I toyed with the idea of doing my own but...nah...lol.4
