    My aide was able to make my two meals today just had to let the tenders cook 2 hours rather than 30 minutes to get that crunchy feel. Also made ground Turkey patties with spinach and kale using my George foreman grill.

    They do not look like the pic but it tastes nice and juicy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. I didn't quite finish my last meal at 5pm😥 but I finished by 5:30 so I'm happy. Nothing but water and my herbal ice tea concoction for the rest of the evening. Another successful day down for me.

    TOMORROW IS ANOTHER DAY! STAY POSITIVE

    ^^^ This is a great post @gjaholy33 !!

    I had pretty horrible calf cramping daily for about a month or more. Over vacation my hubby started putting electrolyte drops (you can purchase them online) in my water bottle, and my cramps stopped. I've been having SmartWater before bed each night (20-33 ounces before bed) and that has helped too.

    Thank you for this!👏👏😉


    Dill pickle juice also works for cramping during exercise. It is fast and effective.

    Daily post for Thursday

    Track: yes
    Calories: yes, under
    Exercise: stairs at work and 100 squats
    Water: 140oz

    Very busy day today, so I didn't get all the snacks I originally logged..... but thats ok. Gave me flexibility for dinner and I had a snack after dinner.
    Also, I have a habit of having a good weigh in and then eating a lot. So this is a change of pace for the better.

    I've heard that one--- sounds so yucky though😣😂 but with the cramps I was getting I would have guzzled that stuff it helped--so thank you! If I start locking up again---PICKLE JUICE it is🙌😝

    Not only is it delicious, but it does work, because it's got a lot of natural electrolytes.....

    Weigh in: March Week 2
    PW: 223.2
    CW: 221.0

    So things are getting better and that shows in my weight. I hope it’s a permanent drop and need to work to keep it dropping. Week 2 and I’m only down 1 lb for the month. ugh. I’ll have to work hard the next 2 weeks to keep my body functioning properly and to drop some major pounds so March isn’t a wash! I still have my goal of being 200 or less by the end of May!!

    Plans: Keep guzzling water, got some new bottles that will hopefully make that easier. Bring exercise back in!! I’ve been still too too much! Continue eating as I am. Hoping to get my garden planted this year, fresh veggies!!

    Husband wants to go to see the in-laws this weekend. MIL likes to feed you. So I’m strategizing on how to thwart her efforts. 😁

    _____________________________________________

    Comments: So ok, I'll take the gain-- always hoping for a loss, but with such a huge swoosh last week, I knew I'd bounce up again. I increased my upper body weights all 3 days of strength training this week on my upper body (chest, back, tri's& bi's & shoulders), so that could account for some water retention also.

    Goals for this week: PLANNING! My focus needs to be food. The exercise I have in the bag, bc I love it. I will need to be more diligent with my food choices & planning. Last week's schedule was nuts and I was not prepared---ate under my calories, but my macros were way off, I ate some junk and I did not stick to my 5/2 plan. So this week it's 5/2 and grocery shopping & cooking!!!

    NSV: I have learned, THIS JOURNEY COMES WITH GAINS AND LOSSES (just like life does). It's how you choose to deal with it. CHOICES!!🤘🏻😉❤️


    HAPPY WEEKEND ALL---KEEP UP YOUR AWESOME NSVs!!!
