Sorry for the huge delay in posting! I had technical issues the past week. Also, my husband and I just purchased our first home 🏠 so things have been exciting but hectic! Needless to say I have not been working out trying to get everything squared away, and have not been eating the best. I'm expecting the weigh in this morning to not be so great 😟

Surprisingly lost a tad bit, but maybe didn't eat as bad as I thought and going back and forth from apt to house maybe helped.

Hello everyone. My name is Theresa. I have been a part of MFP off and on since 2012. I rejoined this challenge in January 2019 because in December recommitted myself to a healthier lifestyle due to a medical scare. Unfortunately, I am not very active on this page but I am hoping to improve in that area. I have had to reset my thinking to slow progress is still progress. I don’t want a quick fix but a lifestyle change. I have adapted a Keto style (recommended by my doctor) of eating by keeping my carbs low and a higher healthy fat content. Since December I am down 30 lbs. Normally, I would have quit by now because the weight is coming off slowly but I committed to myself that I would stay in this journey one full year. So here I am! I have not been 100% faithful since starting and have had more than my share of “bad weeks” but I am staying the course.
This is my birthday month so I decided to kick it up a notch with exercising and a lot less cheat days. I plan to be more active this month to stay accountable to the group.
My goal this month is to lose 10 lbs, track everything everyday and exercise at least 3 days a week. Happy May!2 -
Hi, I'm Brittany and I'm a reoccurring member with the BLC. I'm a 5 ft even, 32 yo wife, mom of two young boys, and strength training is my exercise of choice with a recent love for sprinting (a quick and great fat burning exercise 🏃♀️). May is going to be hectic because we just purchased a house 🏠 and packing, moving, maintenance, etc will take up most of my time. Plus my oldest is graduating Pre-K!👨🎓 Here come the waterworks 😭 There are also several birthdays in my family this month. With everything going on I want to be realistic about my goals:
-Workout at least twice per week
-Track as much food as possible daily
-Drink at least 60 oz of water 💧
- Write down a positive thought or encouraging quote every morning to start the day off on a good note.
Good luck to all this month!

Hope you're all having a great weekend so far---keep up the wonderful effort!

Exercise: 30 mins weight training, all accessory/core work today, 2 hours walking.
Comments: Really trying to find my rhythm again, and it's been a real struggle, but this is also a heavy week, next week is a de-load, and will be at 55-60% so that will make it easier, but more boring, so there's that.
Let's finish this week strong!!3 -

Tracked yep!
Calories under
Excercise yep! Walked and played softball with my daughter and nephews.
Pro tip: if you're on a brisk walk and feel the sudden urge to run, don't. Unless you take your inhaler first.😩😩2 -

It's a combo of water and tea--- and yeah, I'm like a total CAMEL now---
I think my body is used to the amount I drink bc I start the day with 40 oz of tea and black coffee followed by 48 oz. of water during my workout and about 60 oz after my workout--- and usually only use the bathroom once at the gym. 1
