    Week 3
    Weigh in day Sunday
    PW:177.5
    Cw: 174.3

    I think there is a lot of water loss here from the cortisone shot I had 10 days ago.

    POSTED! Take those losses any way you can get them o:) Maybe I got your water loss - I'm up a half pound...

    So week 4 is officially underway -- and we are all trying to get under what we weigh! (sorry for the sad Navy joke, @Navydaddjtc . At least I didn't use the word "anchor")

    OK, I thought my snowshoeing was going so well - my circuit was taking me less time (it is very hilly and HARD), and I was pretty impressed with myself. Then today. Almost 2 feet of new snow. I made it about half way in an hour, and usually do the whole trek in an hour after the trail gets more or less packed. More packing tomorrow, and the next day...

    Foam rolling felt really, really good.

    1. What was the best workout move you’ve ever done? And the worst?

    Best: I love my treadmill, I find listening to my music relaxing. Worse-I still have to be careful of my head because of brain surgery.


    2. What’s the best recipe you’ve EVER made?


    3. What’s the most recent diet/plan you've been following
    I always watch my sodium and sugar levels, I try to eat healthy.

    5. What’s your favorite place to workout? Why?
    Outdoors, I enjoy walking. Any weather conditions.

    7. What is your favorite workout song. Don't have one. I like any type of music.

    I am getting there.

    Jan 20: 13110 steps in 1hr:21 minutes (PB for a daily total in MONTHS - has already been reported on the Step Challenge thread)

    I spent an hour "jogging around London" on the mini-trampoline, which was further stretched by an extra 21 minutes "spending accumulated exergame points" earned while jogging around London for an hour .... I was on some of those VERY STRETCHES OF PAVEMENT last June!

    My shoulder is feeling quite good so I’m hoping to get back to HIIT this week, and take my stepping back up to a more normal level.

    A really good recipe for vegan minestrone, I estimate at 250 cals per serving. Ingredients in the picture attached below. Serves 6 easily.

    Sauté the onions carrots and celery together for about 3 to 5 minutes.

    Add the potato rosemary garlic pepper flakes and bay leaf and cook for another 30 seconds

    Add the tomatoes and the lentils and give it another 30 seconds

    Add in all the broth and let it come to a simmer. Cook another 15 minutes..

    Add the pasta and cabbage - or if using kale add it in the next step instead, and cook until everything is properly done.

    At the end, put in the kale and cook for another two minutes

    Add the vinegar in the lemon juice, stir well and remove from the heat. Fold in the parsley and basil And let the pot sit for a minute or two.

    Serves six easily, I ate about 3/4 serving. Very yummy and filling.

    Copied from a different thread .... but I REALLY like and believe in the sentiment. It sums up the idea of evolving strategies into a sustainable lifestyle.

    ================

    consistency: the quality of always being the same, doing things in the same way, having the same standards

    In our weight loss journey, consistency is a key to our success. When we consistently complete the methods we have chosen to lead us to victory such as recording our food, drinking our specified amount of water, exercising, or planning our meals ahead of time, we are going to see good things happen. And we will not find ourselves regaining all that weight (again).

    Consistency wants to be your life long companion! Let's embrace it!

    Yes, I'll add it. My entire family has been sick, so I've been letting everything fall to the side. Not many steps but I'll log them.

    Great job keeping up with weigh-ins this week! And everyone but me had a loss. Sorry to let you all down, guys! But it was my birthday 2 days before weigh-in, and that's my excuse >:)

    Only one Monday person remaining - @cccallahan

    There are no Tuesday weigh-in people, so we get a chance for all the Wednesday folks to up their game today to ace tomorrow morning o:)
