    @Antiopelle , what push up challenge do you use? It's one of the things I really struggle with doing (inclined is about the best I can do, but my planks are fine, it's just adding the movement...)

    Hi @katsheare. Last year I followed this : https://hundredpushups.com/
    I'm pretty strong overall, except my arms, therefor I did using my knees as restpoint instead of my toes. I did it until I could do 70, and then due to circumstances I stopped and I regret it, as I truly gained strength. This weekend I will do the test and next week, I start again.

    Brilliant! This looks thorough, and I do love a graded plan (C25k was a revelation!).

    I'll give it a read and hopefully be following in your footsteps soon (not with a paring knife, though! That does not sound like a good weight-loss plan!! I hope you're recovering well and not finding it too intrusive in daily life. It's amazing how much we use things like fingertips...)

    I'm in the same boat - it was going great... my arms were looking better and I injured my shoulder. I'm doing the test tomorrow and fresh start at it 1/6.

    Drink my water - yes
    Take my meds/supplements - yes
    Watch out for the dairy - umm, had old cheddar AGAIN!
    Try not to eat after 9 pm since I am on day shift this month - yes
    (The past few days)

    It's hard when cheese is just my favorite thing. I could live happily on that and nothing else (except it reacts with my body chemistry to stall weight loss) :|
