Hi everyone! Sorry I disappeared for a bit. This week I have really been struggling with the homeschooling. My younger daughter is starting to act out more and I'm sure she wants more attention but I'm constantly running between the older two trying to help them. Yesterday was extra hard and I finally had a complete break down. Hoping to be moving forward now! It's easier for me to type everything out for the challenge on my computer instead of my phone, and my kids are constantly on the laptop for their school stuff so that's why I haven't been active here, but I have been logging everything on my phone.

I made a chicken and kale stew for dinner today, it was delicious! It was really easy to prepare, and I hopped on the bike while it was cooking. I really wish I used my instantpot more!!! I will definitely make the stew again.I also completed Day 6 of 21 Day Fix. I have an entire week filled in on my calendar, because I did the pilates video before committing to trying this! I am just about a third of the way complete, and I am feeling great! I am looking forward to yoga fix tomorrow, hopefully it is more of a rest day!
Unfortunately, I am exhausted today!!! I want to go snuggle in bed with the puppy!

Hi Team, HAPPY EASTER!!
Hope everyone is doing well. If you haven't seen in previous threads every now and then our TBBT Team has a Weekly Roundtable Discussion in hopes to keep our team more engaged! This month has been difficult for most but one thing I have personally been able to do while cooped up is work on self reflection. I'd like to keep it simple and positive for this week's W.R.D.
Please remind everyone your first name. What is your occupation(you don't have to be specific about company names of course) What or how have you learned during this pandemic? How have you turned this covid19 lemon into Corona lemonade? Have you learned something new about yourself or about those who you are experiencing this pandemic with? Please share. 0 -

Sorry!!! I'm up and down. I workout hard one day and log calories, the next day I don't work out and go over calories (and I missed logging 2 days this week). I have started to lift heavier weights, but it seems that it's increasing my appetite too. Fingers crossed for a better week. Good luck to everyone and Happy Easter!4 -

@cmhubbard92 life got me like Thor post Infinity War😞 (someone posted a pic a few posts back) I was making steady progress and then total derailment I am currently at may heaviest ever. Need to get my head right and get my *kitten* together. No more or less stress than most so its time to get focused! Thanks for tagging me? I have been almost completely off MFP last 3-4 weeks. I’m ready to start putting the work back in!2 -

Happy Easter everyone! We tried our best to enjoy the day staying home and had good food. The weekends are easier since my husband is home and the kids don't have to do schoolwork.
WRD- my name is Destiny. I'm a stay at home mom to 4 kids. For the time being I'm also a homeschooling mom 😉 This pandemic is reminding me to be so grateful for teachers. And not to take simple things for granted. It's given me daily opportunities to work on my patience but I'm still struggling with it. I'm trying to stay positive but I definitely have my moments when I lose my cool. I would love to use this time to learn a new skill but most of my time is spent helping the kids with their learning. I have learned a lot about zoom and google classroom! 😂
@cmhubbard92 Are you enjoying 21 day fix? I've done a couple rounds and enjoyed it and had good results. I've been thinking about doing another round when I'm done with my current program.0 -

@thedestar I am definitely enjoying 21 Day Fix. I find it very challenging, but can make it through *most* if I use the modifications when I need to (which is most of the time). I did realise that I am doing the wrong calendar (following 21 day fix real time) instead of the one I am supposed to follow. I like the variety a bit more, we'll see what happens with it!
I am bad at having patience for so many things! I give you so much credit for remaining focused through all of this, as well as enjoying easter with your family!1 -

This month has been difficult for most but one thing I have personally been able to do while cooped up is work on self reflection. I'd like to keep it simple and positive for this week's W.R.D.

WRD:
My name is Christine. I currently work in retail as a merchandiser. Currently, we are considered essential, and I am continuing to work overtime. One thing I have learned is that this will not go away if people keep going out to show-me have so many families coming into my work not buying anything, but touching everything and buying nothing.. Luckily we have begun limiting people, and will hopefully restrict to one-person per familh. I have personally been glad that I am working, so many of my friends are out of work and unsure of what will happen. I have developed a bit more compassion, I guess? I have learned that I personally want to stop buying *as much* from big box stores, and begin buying from local farms.
I did find out that there are several farms in my area(I moved in August, and am just finding this out now). I found one dairy farm, one that has several winter greens, local eggs, etc. I saw that our farmers market is still running. Allowing only 1 person per family on the green, and you must be spaced out at a minimum 6ft, allow the vendor to get your food(nobody else touching it), and pay via card to limit spread of germs. The farmers market was getting a lot of complaints about being open, but their prevention is 100% better than our local supermarket(plus it is outdoors). I will 100% attend on the weekend, or visit one of the farms after work. They definitely need our support right now, and always!2 -
Sorry, I've been hesitating to put my weigh-in as I gained weight. 4/12 Saturday was 142.4.1
