    Track: Yes
    Calories under goal: Yes
    Exercise: 7000 steps walking + 46 minutes exercise bike (10.8 miles)

    After feeling out of sorts for the last 2 - 3 weeks I'm doing a lot better now. I have been teaching myself to cook. A friend told me about Morton Nature's seasoning...it's really good on steak and fish. The new Instant Pot is awesome.

    Daily Post (Monday)

    Today was my first day back at school, srarting my Doctoral Degree in Psychology Health and Wellness. I was excited and nervous even though it is online it is tougher than Bachelors and Master's.

    Congrats on starting your PhD program. I have a MS in Psych and worked as a counselor for about 15 years. I ended up going back to school in to get an IT degree. The MS was tough enough …..I failed my oral comps the first time. I can't even imagine how tough a doctoral program would be. Good luck!

    Quick question how you guys get and stay motivated.
    Early in the day I always say I’m going to go to the gym or for a long walk with the kids then the end of the day I just want to eat then sleep. Something has to change

    I put an alarm on my phone like a drs appt to remind to do some kind of movement for 10-15 every 3hrs

    What a year. Last March I had a hip replacement, In July I found out I had liver cancer and had a liver resection in Sept which got rid of the cancer for now. Trying to get permisson to go back to work found out I had a hernia which I said to the doc 3 months ago. So off to the surgeon on Monday to see what is going to happen. On a good note my weight this week is going down

    Wow you've been through it but at least you're finally on track with getting healthy and getting your weight down just continue and I will keep you in my prayers that everything goes well and you can return to work sooner rather than later.

    Happy Transformation Tuesday Team!!

    We can achieve our goals, we just have to take the time to put them first and ourselves first in order to get there, and believe me, that's hard for me, I never really took the time to take care of myself and that's how I got to the place where I was. So please, take the time for yourself, you and your goals are important too! Let's finish Feb strong and start March strong!!

    Daily Post (Tuesday)

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes
    Exercise:Yes, 60 mins walking, 60 mins weight training, walked for an additional 40 min at the hockey game

    Comments: Went to a hockey game with my sister, had a good time, couple of NSVs for me and my sister, her seats were all inclusive, and they had some not too bad food, I did eat a salad, but my sister ate none of it!
    Walked 5 miles yesterday with the walking for the game and my normal walking, so I went ahead and ate the extra 200 calorie salad, no cheese, only lettuce and some veggies, tiny amount of dressing, my normal salad, so probably less than that but that's my estimate since I didn't weigh it, obviously lol.

    @digger61 Nice! I honestly feel the best eating this way, I think it forces me to eat better quality foods rather than letting me have a donut which is just a ton of empty calories leading me down a dark path, so, I'm glad I gave it a try, if you need any help or need recipes, let me know. I have quite a few.
    And honestly, you may notice a dip in performance/energy for a few weeks, but hang in there, it will pick up, and will come back stronger than before...

    @CindyJNC1963 I was looking at some instant pot recipes that are low carb* and some of these you might like, mostly a lot of meat and lower carb veggies, some suggest adding potatoes, which I would omit, but you can probably leave in if you're eating them.

    I think in a couple recipes they did suggest something like brown sugar in the spices, but I'd just swap that for something like Swerve and it'd be better for lower carbs.
