Daily Report:
*5/1 – 134.6 - I am ready to start this month off and get it rocking and rolling! Worked out AND tracked all calories. Let’s go!
5/2 - Nothing
5/3 – Nada - Weekends are rough. I need to figure out a method to stay focused through my varying schedule.
*5/4 -137.6 – Crazy how two bad days can make me feel horrible. Ready to get back on it today! Finished my work-out this morning, and already tracking calories!
*5/5 – Another good day, calories and workout complete!
*5/6 – Off to a slow start this morning, but doing well on calories and hoping to complete my work-out this afternoon. – Work out completed and all calories tracked.
*5/7 – 135.6 – a very depressing weigh-in. Other than last weekend, I am doing really well. Hoping to see that number go down tomorrow since I officially track the number on Fridays. SO sore from working out. I really, really don’t want to do it today, but here we go! Success.
*5/8 – 134.6 – I didn’t gain but I didn’t lose either. Today is a much needed scheduled rest-day in my workout program, so excited to have a break.

May - wow! I've been snowed under the last 2 wks. Finished a major project this morning that's been sucking up every minute of my time and energy when I'm not in the office. I had an old friend (we've been social distancing and so has she) stay with us for a week - she's not in good health and required the rest of my energy to try to help her. Big lesson in WHY we need to keep our bodies strong. We've had my hubby's kids with us pretty much non-stop the whole quarantine - this isn't easy on a 42 that's never had children in the house. I'm not very domesticated so figuring out quick meals took some doing. Bought new batteries for my scale today and ready to get back to daily weigh ins. I'm focusing on doing a few things for me this month - can't pour from an empty cup. I will have my goals for the month lined out by Monday. This wknd is the first time we've had alone in since this mess started March 15th - I'm not going to worry too much about it and simply enjoy the quiet time with my husband. Steaks on the grill & cocktails is on the menu tonight.
5/6 - 145.2 - Put new batteries in the scale this morning and weighed for the first time in a WHILE! Nothing like weighing in after celebrating Cinco de Mayo all day yesterday....but gotta start somewhere! Rode for a few hours and did well on calories but not nutritionally.
5/7 - 143.0 - took the evening off for an 'at-home' date night.
5/8 - 144.5 - chocolate cake & wine last night and it's showing this morning.... weekend is almost here and I'll get in 23432342343 steps and sunshine.
5/12 - 144.6 - Too many carbs last night...My mother-in-law is going to be in charge of dinner for a couple of weeks and she's a phenomenal cook, but it's going to be lots of mexican food. I'm just going to concentrate on portion control. On the upside - no workout, but I hauled 50lbs grain sacks and moved hay bales. My hubby is laid up for a bit so I'm riding his horses as well as mine. Rode for 3-1/2 hours. I have no idea what that burns, I don't feel like the burn on here is right - I don't think I use that much actually riding so I'm not logging it.5 -

May GW: get back to 70
1. Get my snacking under control. I'm good with my three meals, but it is the inbetween and evening snacks that undo everything
2. My May goal is exactly the same as the April goal, I'll keep on reporting here on a daily basis until I get to 70 again.
3. Hopefully, we will get back to diving again somewhere this month, which burns calories like crazy

5/14 - I swear I feel so fluffy right now, eating way more carbs in the evening than I'm used to isn't the greatest - but I'm not in charge of meals and that's fabulous. Worked at the barn for 3 hours last night riding... I've got to get 4 worked this evening and I'm just so tired. At least tomorrow is Friday and my husband is getting around a little bit better daily. I'm betting by next weekend he'll be more back to normal...hopefully.4 -
ME:
30y * 5'9" * Weight goal: 63kg (138,89lbs)
MAY GOALS- Get back into some workout routine
- New focus on glute workout
- Do better on IF again (fix coffee in the morning)
- Make more "binge-volume-eating"-safe food
MEASUREMENTS
I don't dare to. I really don't. But okay, I went and just did it, here they ar compared to my lowest weight at the end of last year (sigh):
Waist: 76cm (<> 74cm)
Belly: 92cm (<> 90cm)
Thigh: 59cm (<> 56cm)
Hips: 100cm (<> 98cm)
So overall, a gain of 2cm (.8") everywhere. I can see it, I can feel it. I hate it.
WEIGHT - 7 day averages
04 May: 69.1kg
11 May: 68.8kg
15 May: 67.6kg //day weight
I usually don't do mid-week check-ins but I'm a so happy with the result (3 days below 68kg) that I just wanted to share (before the weekend potentially ruins it)! Only 1kg removed from my pre-corona number! :-)

1. Log food everyday.
2. Walk 1h 5x week.
3. Workout twice/week.
4. Do a stretching session each week.
5. Going back to work on the 11th after 8 weeks at home: try not to stress and enjoy our “new life”.
9/05: 69.7kg
Logged everyday and worked out twice, but only walked twice this week. I’ll try to go walking and do my stretch session this weekend. I’m going back to a small deficit this week: diet break is over.
15/05: 69.7kg
I’ve been stuck at the same weight for 2 weeks: last week I was eating at maintenance but this week was back to a small deficit. I hoped to lose something 🤦🏻♀️ I’ve worked out, logged cal, but I just went for a walk twice this week, instead of everyday like I used to. I know what I have to do...

I'm not too worried about today's spike. I hit 154.5 multiple times this week and my trending weight is about a pound lower. My guess this is because of a heavier good day yesterday.3 -

I didn’t count calories on Mother’s Day or our anniversary, but I don’t think it was that bad. I’ve kept up running with my boys, but I have not been able to get myself going on strength training. I’m determined to get it going this week so I’ll be checking in more often to help myself be accountable with that.
@weatherking2019 Your determination with these programs is impressive! As is your progress.
This is such a weird time, but the fact that all of you are still here and still trying is inspiring. ❤️3 -
