    1. ❌199 Net Carbs

    2. ❌Macros/micros within my targets.

    3. ✅ Perform my pre-art ritual each day

    4. ✅ Practice Gratefulness throughout the day.

    5. ✅ Say positive things to myself about my body & face at least 3X a day.

    8,367> 8K steps ✅

    What I learned.
    Bring a packed easy-to-eat dinner for my late class. Don’t think you can find a healthy meal at a restaurant. Remember that if you eat out, you want (and get) dessert. That feeling sorry for myself that “everyone can eat like this but I can’t” will not lead to my usual healthy eating. That my walking is a true habit!💕 That I instantly got a mild headache & my stomach didn’t feel good - slightly nauseous/bloated belly. I was only a little over my calories, but the macro/micros were much worse.

    Thank you.

    I really like this - thanks for sharing! So good to look back for lessons learned. Sometimes it seems hard to take the time to pack something ahead of time but I always regret that decision too!!!!

    My daily goals 11/7
    1. Calories < 1500 ✅ 1143
    2. 10,000 steps ❌ 5701
    3. 30 min exercise ❌
    4. Log all food ✅
    5. Meet fiber macro ❌
    😩
    Had to “entertain” out of town coworkers so no gym at lunchtime, had dinner out with them and then got home too late to fit in an evening walk 😩However I did skip snacks & keep calories down so hopefully a wash!

    NSV - I’ve been walking 2 miles each evening since joining this group & am really enjoying that “me” time! Sleeping better too as a result. Last night my husband asked me 3 times “Are you sure you’re not going for your walk?” I didn’t get home til 9:00 (when I’m usually getting ready for bed). He just couldn’t believe I wasn’t still going for a walk! I guess I’ve established that habit!

    Thank you for the “no excuses” posts!! Love these & love hearing how each of you work around these.

    @shbarbor ..STEPS POSTED ...THAT'S FANTASTIC THAT YOUR DOING THAT.... GREAT NSV

    No Excuses in November

    I'll take the 3 that I struggled with most when I began my journey ---that are now a natural part of my daily routine.....

    Excuse #3: "I don't have access to a gym."
    Solution: Walking! I lost 80 lbs with no gym membership by dieting (1200 cal) and walking---and you can always go to a mall on rainy days.

    Excuse #9: "Exercising isn't fun."
    Solution: Try new things....like group X, dance, Zumba, Spin, swimming, hiking and/or get a buddy/family to join you on your jogs/walks/biking.

    BTW: I never EVER thought I'd try a group class if you'd asked me 4 years ago I would have laughed at the thought--- I am so hooked now. (So far I've done, yoga, spin, group strength, Zumba, spin fusion (TRX), pilates, and core classes... once my shoulder heals I want to try Barre and Hot Yoga)

    Excuse #10: "I'm so out of shape."
    Solution: This is an excuse I used for most of my life.... and a simple response is...everyone starts somewhere and you can only improve. Adding just one small exercise into your routine...just 5 minutes of abs or 10 squats a day and you can build on it.

    So true!!! I love all the different classes you've taken! Impressive. And 80 lbs lost is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Excuse #1: "I don't have time to cook nutritious meals or exercise."

    Excuse #6: "I'm too tired to exercise."

    Excuse #10: "I'm so out of shape."

    I have used all of the above excuses at some point or another, I still use 1 and 6 far too often. Usually excuse 1 occurs on Thursdays when I go grocery shopping, so to combat that excuse this week we went after dinner. There was less rush and no temptation to just pick up something.

    As for excuse 6 there’s a quote by Mark Twain that we use often in my household ““Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day.” My preverbal frog is exercise, so I try to get it done first thing. I try every morning to take at least a 20 minute walk. This walk sets the tone and pace of my day because no matter what I accomplished at least one positive thing that day. It’s weird because I sort of hate it, but I always feel so much better both physically and mentally afterward.

    Excuse 10 will not fix itself. As many of the group know I was horribly out of shape when I joined, my maximum steps were 500 (yes that’s hundred) a day, on a good day. These days 5000 is a low day and most are between 7k and 8k. I just started doing a little more each day, my biggest advice to people who say I just can’t walk that far is to tell them to walk one more step today than you did yesterday, do one more small activity, start with seated cardio or light weights if you can’t do anything else. A gym is not needed to get into any sort of shape. My second bit of advice is to listen to your body when it comes to exercise. I didn’t always listen and I had a few set backs where I could barely walk for days because I pushed too hard.

    Thanksgiving Month! 🤗 🤗 🤗 November 8🦃🙌🦃🙌

    Let’s rock it this weekend!! Tips to stay on course over the weekend!
    q1o9acbhcroa.jpeg

    From:

    https://8fit.com/lifestyle/staying-track-weekend/

    Don’t let one unhealthy meal lead to more
    We’ve all said the phrase, “I’ll start on Monday,” but in reality, it’s a lot harder when Monday swings around. Just because you’ve enjoyed an indulgent meal or gone off plan at one point, don’t undo the week’s hard work by going on a rampage of over-indulgence for the rest of the weekend. Instead, enjoy a bit of what you fancy and then get right back on track. My favorite analogy is, if you burst a tire on your car, you don’t then burst the other three tires. You get it fixed and carry on with your journey, and that’s exactly the approach to take if you overindulge – you get back on track and carry on with your journey.
    Bottom line
    The most important thing is realizing that leading a healthy lifestyle shouldn’t mean giving up the things you love or restricting yourself; once you embrace that, you’ll come to find that you can treat weekends like any other day. You can still enjoy your favorite foods and activities – it’s just about doing it in a mindful and balanced way so that nothing will get in the way of reaching your goals and you’ll feel great every day of the week.

    Thankful for all of you! Have a wonderful Friday!
    November!!! Workout 🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♂️Warriors on a mission!

    @ConfidentRaven - I feel like walking it so underrated when people try to lose weight. Everyone thinks they have to go hard at the gym but moving more in your every day like by just walking makes such a big difference!

    Thanks Sue!🤗 ...and regarding your daily goal post---it is so important to voice your NSVs! On days like today when I see a 3.7 lb scale upswing.... I need to take a few moments and remind myself of what I did right this week---not just what I might have done wrong.

    SO WTG SUE---the changes that you are adapting to, will pay off soon!!🙌👏💫
