I forgot to attach my trainers chicken scratch😄
@Krysless2, can you describe back squats and leg raises? And with the sit ups, do you hook your feet under something to "sit right up"?1 -

I've got to get back on track starting today. The exercise part is getting better, as I am doing a weekly bike ride and five days of the couch to 10K. I added a little strength training last week as well, and hope to do this twice a week now that the gym has reopened.
@richmondwriter, yes, you went up a little bit, but you did go out for Mexican last night, so you gotta believe that that has something to do with the number on the scales! Your exercise sounds awesome...so impressed with the C210K!!2 -
@mhassan160, it's just one pound....six or seven "under" days will make that go away!!
@thedestar and @brandi_84, it may not have been the loss that you wanted, but it was a loss after going up the week before, so that is the positive here!!3 -
Wow! I left to go grocery shopping, and came home to check the group and the conversation is on a roll! I will try to catch up later!
I cut up more pineapple and cantaloupe and decided to make myself a fruit "salad" because it isn't quite time for lunch.
Pineapple, cantaloupe, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
Today is my version of a cheat day-I am planning on having some more carbs than usual- grinders for dinner, sandwich for lunch and I even got a pepperidge farms cake, but my goal is to stay under calories for the day... it may not happen! That's ok because I have been under by a lot all week!
Today's weigh in:
Last week: 179.0
This week: 180.7
Gain 1.7
I'm not stressing this gain at all because I have been extremely strict, and I know the scale will go back down!5 -
@cmhubbard92 That looks like an awesome fruit salad. My husband has been doing all the shopping lately and has been bringing us all different types of fruit. Last time he even bought cherries. I hadn't had cherries that didn't come from a jar or pie since I was a kid.2

@brandi_84 thanks! My boyfriend has begun rolling his eyes at me because of how much fruit I buy every week... I take fruit to work every day, have it with my yogurt... He usually only goes for the pineapple/cantaloupe.
And I LOVE fresh cherries! I can tolerate cherry pie filling, because who doesn't like pie, but don't usually go for the sweetened/jar kind... I only buy them when theres a good sale, normally!0 -

@HASWLRS So sorry! We all have days like that and I know lack of sleep messes me up big time. I blame that for the fact it took almost 2 years to lose the baby weight after most of my pregnancies. You have a great attitude so I know you'll do awesome this upcoming week!
@AfriDiva nice loss!! 👍👍
@cmhubbard92 your fruit looks SOO good! We went to the store this afternoon and I really wanted some berries but they didn't have any that looked good so I settled for some apples. You have an awesome attitude! I need to try and be more like you 💪🏻

@thedestar thank you so much! I could eat fruit all day long!!! I love apples, but tend to avoid buying them because I have trouble figuring out the calories (I never save the core to weigh/subtract my total). I have mu moments where I get really down on myself but have been working super hard on that! I have to remind myself I am much different from when I started!
You did a fabulous job hitting your goals nearly all week! Great job! I am so happy to see you on here more!1 -

It was my husband's birthday so we went out for a socially distant dinner and then to visit friends. One nice thing about living on the coast is that many of the restaurants were already set up for outdoor seating. The bad part is that I don't like seafood. 😂3 -

Good morning/afternoon/evening (depending on your part of the world 😊!). I noticed we all had a bit of struggle this week with our personal goals and it’s important that we remember that if we weren’t still a part of this group we would most likely take our binges to a whole new level of self sabotage and a quicker trip to get to our spiral out of control... at least for me anyway!
I tried to think about ways to help us all move forward in a more productive way. I remember reading a great tip in a book called “The FourDayWin” where the author asked you to write down one goal then after you wrote it down she humorously criticized you, because it was clearly too high a goal. Then she asked you to break it down to something so ridiculously easy that she would have to physically stop your eyes from rolling out of your head. This book literally turned my once sedentary lifestyle into a lifestyle of being physically fit. I remember My first ridiculously easy goal was to put my sneakers on and walk for 5 minutes! But I was 215 lbs and had terrible back issues. This is all I could do at the time. Take a glance at your goals that you listed at the beginning of the month. Ask yourself: What have you completed on the list? Which one have you not even attempted? Is it too large a goal? What would make it doable? Next, (because I can’t find that book, I am using a SMART goal template I found off Pinterest) So this is our WRD/assignment: Please fill out this form as best as you can after you assess and simplify one of your goals.1 -
