Excuse #5 (diets leave me feeling unsatisfied) is definitely my go-to excuse. I have plenty of time for the cooking, exercising, whatever. But I will complain, complain, complain about feeling hungry and not being able to have what I want. I’m currently in the middle of doing that. I know that when I’ve been back on track for longer than 3 weeks that the feeling of always being hungry fades and I can work the foods I want into my diet but ugh...right now I’m just pushing through with the bad attitude.
I actually do implement the solution they suggest - eat healthy, calories dense foods, cut back on the sugar, make your calories count it just still takes probably about a month for me to not feel hungry every night before bed. And I’m a grumpy gus and I just want to complain.4 -

7 Nov Results:
Logged Food
Stayed Under Calories
Water: 84 oz
Exercise: No
Calories burned: 395

Burned up calories running errands all day, and I had a long list. I like the idea of designating one day to get errands, appointments and shopping done, as well as all my food prep for the week.

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.5 -

I’ve been taking my pup on longer walks in the morning and afternoon which has really increased my step count plus it tires out my doggo so she behaves better on her nighttime walks.3 -

Nancy!! Have I told you lately how freaking awesome you are my friend! 80 pounds lost!
You were there for me when I had hurt my back earlier this year and I was discouraged. 💓You told me about the back stretcher that now my hubby loves as well! I had to heal for a few weeks. This shows of the true testament of what we can do as a community! 💜💜💓💜💜3 -

Nov 7
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.6 -
I’m changing my 1st 2 goals for the next week:
1. 8K steps or more.
2. Eat fewer calories than my daily goal within my macros/micro goals.
3. Create (not imagine or read about), but actually create art each day.
4. Gratitude
5. Positive body self talk 3 -
Good morning!
I’m so inspired by all your great posts busting your excuses!
We got some snow overnight but I have my winter tires so I’m ready to roll
