Comments: Been really sore this week with my new Weightlifting program, coach is trying to kill me I think, so I managed to get in about 20 mins of cardio at the gym before the soreness got to me so I cut that short. Well I guess the universe spoke to me because my neighbor asked me if I wanted to walk with her after work so I walked for an hour anyway. Guess I was meant to do it after all.4 -

@AB0215 That is exactly what my trainer said. I am not stressing the weight at this point. I feel better and have more energy. I am getting use to eating the food in my meal plan. Never thought it would be a struggle to eat but believe me I am not complaining.1

Other than working lots, I'm really fine.

@genajonas Believe me when I say this, I have ONLY lost weight when I was feeling good. So hang in there, and pay attention to the scale, but don't let it get to you if it's a bit up for a little while. It will catch up. Another thing to realize is that with the increased energy and whatnot, you will be able to put more of it into your workouts, and the return on investment there is worth it. You will build more muscle, which burns more fat and you will be feeling even better because exercise creates endorphins and endorphins make you happy (sorry Legally Blonde reference and I had to resist the urge to follow that with "and happy people just don't shoot their husbands")
My trainer told me the same thing at one point about not eating enough, not that I disagreed with him, but at the time I was testing a theory.2 -
Question of the Week:
With the holidays approaching, what is your plan to stay on track?
I am going to have a particularly challenging time this time around, Thanksgiving with my family is the 16th since I'll be traveling to NM to visit my mother in law for Thanksgiving this year and I've decided to stick to my eating plan regardless of what happens. I have already begun planning my menu for the dinner with my family (my mom and me eat Keto, my husband always cheats on Keto for Thanksgiving) so we have low carb options. This year's menu includes Sugar Free Low Carb Pumkpin Pie and Low Carb Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie and I'll be sticking to the plan when I travel to. I am in the final stages of my weight loss and I need to use the momentum to finish it!
Also on a side note, if your plan is simply to enjoy yourself, that's fine too, one day isn't going to kill you! (well for me, it might, but I'm also weird so...lol)3 -
Well, we don't do thanksgiving in Norway, but Christmas is lurking around the corner...I will try to excercise a bit, but those days are all cheatdays for me. I've almost given up sodas, so it's only the food that ruins it for me.2

Understandable if you don’t get your workout in. That’s a long shift.Tired today. Had to do one nghtshift, so haven't slept for 29 hours now, and been working 21 of them. So not sure if I will do my wko today.

Great plan0 -
I haven’t really stuck to much of anything these past few months. And boy does the scale show it. But I’m going to give myself a break. I’m just going to keep trying to get where I know I can be. Ive been exercising consistently now if I can get my eating back on track consistently I’ll be ok.1

Question of the Week:
With the holidays approaching, what is your plan to stay on track?
We only have Christmas here in the UK so thankfully I don’t need to worry about anything else before that. Normally we have homemade soup with crusty bread 🥖 to start with so I think I’ll be fine with one bowl. Thinking back to previous Christmas dinners, our plates would be huge and I’d go back for some seconds...even thirds 🙈. I think this time round I’ll have mine on a smaller plate and leave it at that. It’s so tempting to go back for seconds though, so I’m wondering how I’ll manage. As for dessert, I could never fit in dessert before, because I’d stuffed my face with dinner lol. I would normally be the one who had to unbutton their jeans just to be able to breathe after eating 😆
I’ll definitely make sure I enjoy Christmas Day but I won’t go crazy with food like I used to. Since losing weight, I feel more in control and I can now say “no thanks” when I’m offered food that I don’t want to eat. So the goal is smaller portions on Christmas Day and I will not allow more food to be pushed on me!

Good question. This has been on my mind regarding Thanksgiving and I still need to come up with a plan.
Some initial thoughts are to participate as a walker in a local Turkey Day run. And also preplan my portions for Thanksgiving dinner.
I got through Halloween, I can get through this too.

I am going to do my best to stay on track with my meal plan. If I have not cheated at all during this time then I will use Thanksgiving as my cheat meal day. I don't use cheat meals but as part of my eating plan but if I stay on goal then I will treat myself to small portions of course. [/quote]
