Well, I did 2 of the 3 things for my Team Pledge yesterday: logged calories and got 10000 steps, but I was over a bit on calories. So I'm going to try again today!
@lenka1 Those cookies are amazing! You are so talented.
@sleepymom5 So happy for you and your success! Keep up the awesome work!

Wasn't too cold yesterday so I snuck out for a longer hike. Weight is up a bit this morning but I've been pushing myself harder physically. Hope that's all it is. Dinners for the week are planned so its nice not to have to figure it out after a busy day.
Wishing everyone a great day!

@phoebe112476 yes! nice loss. you are doing great. you have been working hard and the scale has been being nice to you!
@Shirin_K may spend some time journaling about how important this is to you. It can provide you with some much needed motivation.
@nstephenson01 good job getting that preplanning in. I know it seems like more work but it is ohhh so helpful. takes the guess work out of it!!2 -

Good afternoon and finally checking in - work is beyond busy!
Yesterday was a great day - food, water, steps and yoga! And today is right on track for another successful day.
But not back at it. I'm trying to get ahead on all the stuff I need to get done before the holidays!
Hope everyone is having a successful day!!3 -
Great job everyone!
Daily check in Monday
exercise-Lula Mae and I did a 30 min walk in am
Day 17 of yoga
food-probably too low
water-good
steps-11,168
I woke up yesterday full of energy and enthusiasm. Unfortunately I had less than 6 hours sleep. I did my yoga, my walk and prepped lunches and breakfast for me and Molly. I had taken the "moon muesli" to work with me soaked in pumpkin seed milk with berries. After I ate it my tummy was not too happy. Not sure if it was a bit of a "bug" or a reaction to the richness of the muesli dish. I ended up eating a date for lunch and decided against the raw cabbage fennel salad with pinto beans that I had brought with me. I put my head down on the kitchen table and fell asleep. Was hesitant to eat dinner but...
For dinner I made zoodles mixed with chickpea pasta, fresh pasta sauce with fresh spinach and basil and white cannellini beans. It was the first time in ages that we all sat around the dining room table eating the same meal. It was DELICIOUS! Made special for Skylynn's 9th birthday dinner. Had a really lovely evening celebrating her birthday.
This morning I was so excited to check on my vegan cheese. Moldy. Ughhhh....So disappointing. Will try again this weekend.
My biggest struggle right now seems oddly enough to find a way to eat enough food. My appetite isn't that hearty. I am hoping with the walking this week it will perk back up.
On Saturday I went upstairs to do my yoga. I put on my little yoga pants and camisole. I was shocked at how skinny I looked. Later that day Molly was filming a video of her playing a prank on Skylynn. I was not aware of the running video and walked in front of it several times. Later when Molly showed it to me I was so surprised. I look overweight. It is so strange to see myself in pictures. What I see in the mirror doesn't seem to match up with what I see in photos. I am about 30 pounds overweight so it makes sense to me that I look like I am overweight. But when I see myself in the mirror I look so skinny...I have lost over 35 pounds....so that too makes sense to me why I look so skinny.
All this focus on our weight and food can be so time consuming and overwhelming. I jump off the deep end over and over looking for "my" answers. It's a journey for sure!
On another note...I am so pleased with how flexible I have become with yoga. And strong. Today is 48 days in a row.
Hang in there everyone! A bright new year is awaiting us in just a few short weeks! Everything we are doing now lays the foundation for a very successful and healthy New Year! Don't you just LOVE a fresh start and a new beginning?
But there is still 2 weeks left to make the most of 2018. December is our month to Remember!

@ihp2015 your right! our team rocks! how are you doing?
I'm doing good, Cyndie! Getting ready for some quality time with my hubby during the Christmas break. I've also been working part time as an office manager at the local Carlson Wagonlit Travel office. So nice to have a job to go to, even though it's only part time.
What's not so nice is that my step daughter had a work accident last week and is now at the hospital! She works at a restaurant and she slipped on some frying oil, and then she got burning hot frying oil on her legs, arms and hands. It seems that they're only 2nd burns, but we'll know more on Thursday when we can go visit her at the hospital.4 -

@Lyssysho26 Congrats on your weight loss! Your doing great! How are you feeling? I see that scale in the 220's quickly approaching.
@lenka1 your posts are always so delightful! I love that you are checking up on people and their step counts lol. And your cookies are dazzling!
@cyndiesstuff you are always on the go girl. Not sure how you find the time to captain this team on top of everything else. So glad for all your sweet support!
@sleepymom5 you are doing all the hard work and seeing the results! I am so impressed and really proud of you. It is really ongoing trying to figure out all this stuff out. Your doing it!!!3 -
Hey I’m glad my hard work paid off! It’s sure challenging this time of year. There are so many parties and temptations around!! I’m still working on my portion control and I decided for January my new habit I want to conquer will be drinking enough water!! I was at a party Friday with a group of friends and when it came time for dessert I mentioned how I am trying to set a new goal for each month and that November was “to give up sweets “. Someone said “well it’s not November anymore!” I know she was kidding but I really am trying to make these goals cumulative (if that’s the correct terminology for it!!)5

@lennoncpa your team is very proud of you. We all are learning from each other! Your doing great and very inspiring.1

@ihp2015 sorry to hear about your stepdaughter.
I hate not having a Fitbit, I feel like every move I make doesn't count for anything. I was at my Zumba class tonight and kept looking at my naked wrist in the mirror while I was jumping around. Christmas can't come quick enough. I think I have also been eating a lot of crap over the last week. I have to change that and today I noticed I have not been drinking enough water. I start doing really well with logging and then I stop. I am going to have to focus and make sure I log every day, even if I start small with 5 days so I won't feel so bad if I miss any days.4 -
Logged yes but wasnt under. My sweet tooth got
the best of me today!
Steps 10287
Exercise no still on the mend.
I had my sons class party today and as i said before my sweet tooth got the best of me! This next 2 weeks is going to be hard. I will be happy if i can maintain the next 2 weeks! Lol4 -
Steps good, calories good, exercise good.
My daughter got sick again ugh so she stayed home this morning. We read books for 3h straight and I was so tired after. When I start my days with exercise I don’t ever feel that way. I literally just wanted to lay on a couch all day.
Thankfully my husband came home early and he is done for the year too yay so I went jogging from 330-5pm and got 7 miles in and felt so much better physically and mentally.
Tomorrow is supposed to be a nice day so I want to play tennis. fingers crossed we will find time
@Mandi5512 it’s okay! Just try to stay under some days and enjoy a cookie or two if you want.
The key is to get back to good eating habits once holidays are over. Like right away. You can do this!
@ihp2015 hope your stepdaughter feel much better soon. That is scary
@Mrsbell8well thank you! Well I’m a competitive person and I also like fair play so yes I am checking the steps and also trying my best to help the team:) it’s motivating me to move more. So it’s a win win situation;)
@lennoncpa I feel like sometimes it’s better to just be quiet about work out and eating better. People don’t take it seriously (at least around me) but it’s great you were able to resist and did well! Way to go!
