SAVING MY LIFE.
LET THOSE WORDS SINK IN.
1 -
My body is sore and somewhat tired. Been back to the gym. Wt swing. Did not weight for the last few days due to the dreaded expectation that my weight would jump and it did. Stepped on the scale and it read 239.8lbs. I believe my workout is causing goodcwater retention since the muscle is plumping back up. The weight should drop back down. I can live with the up and down during the week as long as the long term trend continues down!1

@JamieD328~ Good job getting back on track and getting in a walk. 👏🏽 Yeah, you! It’s nice when we recognize the good choices from the poor; and how much better we feel (and lose) when those good choices are made. Happy grocery shopping for those good foods!
@Jupdyke~ As I type this you are up and out at the gym. 💪 Hope it’s a great workout. Good job on getting Day 2- DONE! 👊🏽
@ajaia2001~ Tremendous Tuesday! Nice to hear that the amino acids had a positive next day affect, too. Dang girl! Now you need to take a self-defense class and show them who’s boss. Lol
You’re doing great!
@skullsandskeletons~Terrific Tuesday! 👊🏽
@wander216~ Glad you are feeling better. Glad you’re back on track and eating. Your muscles and circulation will thank you when you talk your walk.
@mawash9~ Nice to hear from you. Thank you for sharing. Great attitude! Keep the good habits and use the scale as one tool to measure your healthy success.

Daily Post (Tuesday)
Track: Yes
Calories: Over but under maintenance
Day: Work continues to be frustrating and stressful, and I think its just going to be one of those weeks where there are a lot of social events during the week and weekend and I just need to practice moderation at all of them instead of saving up calories for one big social outing on the weekend. Went to martini night at a local bar with some friends who we haven't seen in a bit due to conflicting weekend schedules, so had to meet up on a weekday which I normally don't like to do. Week days are usually for staying on track and "adulting," but thats ok. Its worth it to see friends I won't be able to see on weekends for awhile because of summer trips, etc. I also got a text from another friend, who I knew was moving out of state this month but didn't know exact details, that she is having a goodbye happy hour on Thursday. My BF is starting a new job on Monday so he is having a goodbye office happy hour on Friday. And my friend was just dumped by her bf of 6 months via text so we are having a girls brunch on Saturday. Its funny cause I was saying on Monday how I was looking forward to a quiet week and weekend....life had other plans.1 -
Daily mini report
Run: no workout today, been too busy with end-of-year stuff.
Track: didn't track today, mostly ate on the go. But remained mindfull and probably under calories. At my daughter's graduation party, I had nothing but water from the buffet!
Mind: good. I think I'm less hungry then I used to be.1 -
Daily check in Wednesday
Track: Yes
Calories: Under
Exercise: walked a little over a mile again.
I woke up a bit late, so by the time I got moving I decided I would wait for lunch to eat. I took the kids out to eat before getting our groceries. I tried to keep it lighter by having a cup of soup and half a Cuban sandwich and even had a bit of the kids appetizer. I went for a walk with my youngest in her stroller to get her to take a nap. Tonight I made a vindaloo curry. It caused me to finish getting my daily water.1 -

🙋🏽 🌅 😎 Good morning all! It’s going to be another H.O.T. one out there today. Stay hydrated!! My hopes are to catch up fast and get in a little longer than usual workout today; legs on my bike/ glider and an upper body with resistance. So here I go…

Remember we are . . .
The three elements of what it takes to be successful at weight-loss and keeping it off are:
Run -keep moving
Track -know what you’re eating/ drinking
Mind -train your brain to be positive about yourself and okay with change(s).

Thanks, and yeah planning on drinking enough water, it's a good thing i don't drink alcohol anymore
Yes, me too! I decided looooong ago, I rather eat my calories than to drink them. On occasion I might have something, but not just a weekend gathering. Enjoy your friends, family. Focus on them. 0 -
Well, I had some determination, but not a ton. So I started on the bike and while biking, planned and pre-logged today's food -fuel!! Then, I felt the blood flowing and the determination kick-in. My morning habit is in full swing today, 60 minutes later. DONE! I think the best part is I can feel that my endurance is lasting longer when doing cardio. But I still have spots that pain me, so I need to stretch & warm those up better for my long workouts.
Phew..wheeee! I did it!! BTW... I'm 51 and almost 100# overweight!! IF I CAN DO IT, YOU CAN TOO!!
So get up and get moving! Do something. Anything.YOU ARE WORTH IT!!

Daily Post (Wednesday)
Track: Yes
Calories: Over by 107
Day: Didn't do a good job planning ahead so had to eat frozen pizza for dinner, luckily I had a decent amount of calories left for dinner and I weighed out my portion instead of just guessing. Only went over by a little bit. Its extremely hot in DC this week, so its making me feel lethargic and grumpy. Hoping it cools down next week.1 -
