cmhubbard92 wrote: »Give Yourself 30 DaysHere are my goals:
"30 days from now you're either going to be BLOWN AWAY by how much you've improved in how you look, feel and perform. OR, you're going to regret not having done your best. THE CHOICE IS YOURS!"
2. 9,000 steps a day, 5 days each week.
3. Complete 2nd round of 21 Day Fix with minimal modifications.
4. Accurately log food/drinks for the entire month. One day a week with flexibility allowed.
5. Lose 3 pounds.
6. Meal prep at least 2x a week
How I will accomplish my goals:
1. Step goal: Keep moving.
2. 21 Day Fix: Up 2.5lbs(to 7.5lb) on dumbbells, do weight exercises completely. Modify pushups/planks as needed, but try to do as much of full exercise as possible, before turning to modification.
3. Log all foods/drinks. Weigh food when possible.
4. Stay dedicated. The weight will come off ONLY if I eat less than I burn. I have 100% control over this!
5. Try meal prepping on Saturday or Sundays for the week. It will make the week much easier for you.
Yes, Christine! You were so thoughtful with this post and you did an amazing job making a guide out of it. I was looking forward to reassessing my goals and sharing my plan for June with the help of your “guide”, so Yes! I vote for you to share for June and every month thereafter please... 😊1 -
We will miss you! Good luck on your journey to maintenance! (You can always stay and not weigh in, people do do that!)🤗Good News and Bad...
I won’t be returning to TBBT for June.
I hit 149 today. So the weight loss portion of my journey is done and I am headed for maintenance.
But this contest is designed for losing not maintaining. I don’t want to be a drag on the team, so I am saying good bye.
I’ll finish up May and then say good bye. Thank you for all your support and I wish you all the best. ❤️

I can't believe that we are about to head into June! This month has gone by so fast!
Today I ended up jogging for the first time in a few months! There was a light drizzle, and it brought me back! I managed to jog a little over .75 miles without stopping to walk, but did do a couple small spurts to get myself in the groove! When I looked down at my pace for that .75miles I was bouncing around a 13:35ish pace(not bad!) And ended up completing that mile(with walking included) in 15:44. I NEED to get back into running! I really, really miss it! I used to be able to run 8 miles(like a sloth), and it was invigorating! I believe setting a running goal will be on my June list!1 -
Date: Thurs, May28th:
Tracking: Yes
Exercise(20min): Yesssss! First day back at the gym! You have no IDEA what you got til it’s gone!! Thank you Corona for the only positive I got out of you was a great lesson on appreciation of the little things like little bursts of endorphins I was missing from full body workouts at the gym🥊🥊🧏🏻♀️

Exercise(20min): Yes, it was raining today and I didn’t feel like being on my treadmill much but I hope in enough to be considered as 20 minutes!

I just spent some time cutting up vegetables for the week ahead. I will be making sheet pan roasted vegetables with sausage! I cut up enough to bake a sheet at a time! I have salted the eggplant to get a lot of the water out of it.
Next up: pineapple!

@brandi_84 That is eggplant! I had salted them so the water would be drawn out. I cut them in to smaller pieces afterwards
Here is the whole thing after it was baked! Added a little parmesan and it was delicious!
