I love that challenge! It has kept me on track a few times. For anyone looking for something new I really recommend it. It is a month long so you would be coming in late, I think he allows it (?), if not I'll be sure to post the sign up when it's up for next month as well.

and for daily weighers this challenge is about to start, I've been with them for 30 rounds once round 98 starts in a couple of days

I feel for you Nancy because I know you go hard every day. I hope you are doing post workout stretches and nutrition to speed your recovery. First thing I do when I get home from pickleball or a workout is fix a protein shake with at least 30 mg of protein (my first meal for the day), get down on the floor and do stretches and then the foam roller on my legs. Then I ice my knees or other aching joints for 30 mins. Also I eat a handful of walnuts (rich in omega-3 fatty acids to reduce inflammation for quicker recovery). I know for me, this really helps.
Thank you Jim.... awesome advice!!
I usually do greek yogurt or a protein shake post workout... and every workout a stretch after...but I have been bad about foam rolling--I really dislike it...and know I need to do it.
I have a friend who runs and his knees/legs are so sore that he takes ice baths... OMG I couldn't do it. I do ice my shoulder though.
I did put walnuts on my greek yogurt parfait today though.
Hope your knees are feeling ok---you've been really working hard--WTG J!!!2 -
My biggest craving is chocolate/desserts--sugar! And basically I have none in the house right now and that is how I am fighting it off---but the holidays will come with lots of desserts and chocolate gifts.... I will try to have it but log every bite to stay on track.2 -
December 7:
1. Eat 2-3 fruits per day ✔️✔️
2. Eat 3-4 vegetables per day ✔️
3. Workout 20 minutes 5 out of 7 days per week ✔️ ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
4. Drink at least 8 glasses of water per day ✔️
5. Get at least 5,000 steps per day ❌
6. No sugar consumed ❌
I didn't exercise today. I had a ladies' brunch this morning and came home and napped for a long time. I needed it bad. I woke up and my knee was screaming so I'm resting it instead of walking. I may go to the gym tomorrow and get some swim/water aerobics time in. Thanks for the app suggestion, @Fitness327wk. I've downloaded it and will try it.
Blessings,

I hear ya.
At my age, foam rolling is a must so I make myself do it daily, sometimes twice. It's an integral tool for injury prevention, pulling muscles, increasing blood flow, decreasing soft tissue density and increasing flexibilty. I'm notorious for pulling calf/hamstrings, but haven't since I foam roll. Now, I did notice if I don't foam roll within an hour of a workout, my muscles cool off and it hurts to foam roll.
I love greek yogurt and eat it daily. But my new nutritionist says no dairy, take vitamin D3 supplemets, try it for two weeks and see if I don't feel better. Said it will improve my sinuses, weight and energy. So, I'll give it a try.
Yeah I did the ice baths, but I can't handle it. Two ice packs directly on my knees is enough.3 -

✅ Stayed under calories
✅ Daily Exercise Goal: Lateral trainer, Matrix Bike & Inclined Treadmill
✅ Maintained IF schedule: 5:2

🗣Comments/Goals: Gym time with my oldest son today… I love it when he comes along with me.
My quads and glutes still super sore today, but I was able to get in some decent cardio. Strength training & Zumba in the morning...light food day tomorrow... going to try for an alternating day fasting schedule next week.
PS: On Friday I got cleared by physical therapy.🙌..no surgery for my shoulder👏👏 but I still cannot lift weights over head and probably will no longer be able to do to push ups, wide rows...etc. I've made peace with it. ☮️🤷🏻♀️ There is more than one way to be fit--- there are options and it's about finding the options that work for you for your well-being and your abilities.

@BonnieHosk85 and @jcgator2016 Good job on those goals! Rest days are just as important as workout days, especially when our bodies are screaming at us to slow down. I hope your knees feel better soon.
@SLIMn2016 Way to go on those goals and passing on good habits to your kids. Also again yay on not needing surgery!
@tuffgirl19 Great job on those goals!
@shbarbor Awesome job logging even on an over calorie day! Paddle boarding looks like it would be fun!
@Navydaddjtc Congratulations on your new trophy! I hope you had a great day out yesterday.
@christys03 Way to go on those goals! DOMS are horrible and I hope you're feeling better soon.
I hope everyone has a really great day!

I feel I did great this week! I had a new high step count and I stayed on track despite craving a lot of junk this week. I managed not to use my couple of minor injuries this week as excuses to eat or laze about. I did allow myself a full day off from activity when sick, but I didn't beat myself up over an inactive day.
As for tools, I think I have all of them that I need, I just need to not only use them, but use them properly. I've noticed that some days I will still struggle to drink enough, but I won't notice until too late. I have tools to keep track, several of them actually, but if I don't use them they aren't any help.1
