Hi everybody my name is Taylor. I’m a single mom of a 4 year old daughter (Aylah) and I’m 25 years old.
I decided to start getting healthy because in the summer i am super unhappy with myself... every year. I spend most of my days at the lake and I want to feel comfortable in my own body.
After being in quarantine for around 2 months I’ve decided that I am not going to eat all the snacks, I am going to BE the snack.6 -
Saturday check-in
Food - good until dinner
Water - didn't track
Exercise - none, other than gardening
Been really focused all week. Eating well and getting exercise in. Yesterday started off well. Pottering about with jobs at home and bits in the greenhouse, then we all headed to the allotment. Main job was to plant out my beetroot seedlings. Literally hundreds of them. Took a long time, and is one of the allotment jobs I dread (tried other growing methods but this way has always given best results). Anyway, back was aching, time was getting on, and my partner suggested Chinese for dinner. I should have said no, but didn't. Didn't eat a huge amount, but reckon I went over my goal calories for the day by about 1000 calories. But worse in the salt a resultant water being retained.
On waking this morning I jumped on the scales. I was 5.4lb higher than yesterday morning 😯. Not sure I will have that resolved by Wednesday weigh in! But, I am never going to always be 100% good, so I'm not going to beat myself up about it.
Today has been better foodwise. Bbq for dinner - I knew this before dinner, so had light lunch (and no breakfast) so had the calories for it. Finally finished all seed sowing in the greenhouse and potting on. Now just letting things grow for a bit and determining when everything can be planted in the ground. Never been so prepared so early on in the season. Still lots to do to get the ground prepared for everything, but must admit being in Lockdown has made it a lot easier to get organised with all this stuff. When you have nowhere else to be and nothing else to do (other than working/looking after kids), the allotment has been a great diversion.4 -
I took Sunny to a local Metropark today and sat outside for probably 3 hours. This photo is an attempt at a selfie since it was so bright and sunny outside I couldn’t see what was in the photo. Lol! I was wearing my SPF hat and shirt and had sunscreen on any other exposed skin. It felt so nice to breathe the fresh air and I everyone seemed to be very good about keeping the social distancing.10 -
Happy May Everyone!
Big shout out and THANK YOU to everyone on this team! You are all so supportive and especially to our amazing team captains @Cafelelia and @sleepymom5! You are amazing keeping us all positive, even when you both had huge challenges this past month. I can't thank you enough!!!!!!!
I live in Los Angeles,CA with my husband and our 20 year old son is home from college finishing up his Sophomore year. He hates the online learning and living with his parents again. I was trying to figure out my next career move but have put it on hold as I manage my parents health, finance and daily lives. They both have dementia and live in their house. I have 24 hour care but that doesn't stop them from calling me constantly or me needing to run over. Trying to honor their wishes to stay in their house, financially they can, its just the management / safety. Full time job!!!!!!
Started this May off with walking everyday. So count me in on the step challenge this month!
Trying to take care of me, all the doctors say I am no good to my parents if I don't take care of myself. So this month is about finding the balance!
Wishing everyone a good month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
xoxo

I'm Theresa and I live in Toronto, Canada, not too far from Lisa (Cafelelia). I started here in January and it's the best thing I've done on MFP. I started out at 177 lbs a couple years ago and got down to about 147 lbs. Then I drifted off course. My goal was a toned 142 lbs. Right now I'm about 156 lbs and aiming for that 142 and toned goal.
I have a grown daughter and son. My daughter lives nearby with her partner who is working on his PhD. He's a poet and she's a marketer. My son and daughter-in-law live in a small town about an hour away in a little house built in the 1800s. They have two children ~ Pippa, almost three, and Gil, almost one. My son is on paternity leave, which has turned into a challenge being housebound with two little ones. His wife is an ASL interpreter which is essential right now.
I have an international student, Wendy, who lives with me. She is stranded here as they canceled all flights to Vietnam. She should have gone home about six weeks ago. We are making the best of it. I have her doing yoga and/or shuffle dancing once a day and creating a bullet journal/time capsule, which I've reassured her she can share with her children one day when they ask what she did during the pandemic.
I can't see any of them in person but that won't be forever. Even though I'm a germaphobe, I am recovering from a presumed case of Covid-19. I'm still incredibly tired but very happy to be getting better.
After a career as an advertising and publishing executive, a good friend and I are launching a start-up. It's website where people can hire a professional genealogist on-demand.
Welcome back @twyla77 ~ a fellow Canadian, and @lenka1. Lenka, your baby is just beautiful.
Welcome to @kenzierenzieroo, @bburrer30, and @taylorsjostrand!6 -
Sunday 5/3
Food: over
Water: 42 oz
Exercise: 20 minutes low intensity, 60 minute walk
I went to my church's drive in service today. It was really nice but also strange and weird. Everyone in their cars with only the Pastor and worship team outside. It's great we have the technology to be able to do something like that.
I walked with my neighbor and then napped for the rest of the afternoon because of work tonight.
My Sunday night book club met outside tonight. It was really nice to see them in person. The person who hosts it said she needed to see people's faces in person instead of virtually or just on the phone.5 -

I'm Ella, 45. Live in Calgary, Canada.
I have 2 boys 19 and 8.
In 2013 I lost about 35lbs with calorie restriction/counting and mostly cardio. I maintained for about 2 years, then I had gall bladder removal surgery, changed my activity routine and started gaining back. Picked up running again and got plantar fasciatis. From 2015 to July 2019 slowly gained all weight back.
August 2019 started Intermittent Fasting and I love it. I started with 16:8 and slowly worked my way to 20:4. Now I alternate between 18:6 on my weight workout days and 20:4 - cardio days.
Since August I lost 40lbs. My Initial goal was 83kg (183lbs)- I reached that mid February.
Now my goal is 75kg (165lbs), but is more about how I feel. I want to take it slower, retain all muscles and slowly lose fat.
I get a lot of complements on weight loss, friends are saying I should stop, but I know better. I still have a lot of fat to lose
Here is my progress so far

Quick question since I’m new, do you edit the spreadsheet yourself when weighing in? Or do you comment it in here?
Thanks guys!1 -
@taylorsjostrand - Pam and I have edit rights to the spreadsheet, so we update it. You post your weigh in on this thread.1
