1. Stay under my cal goal every week.
2. Walk 1h 3 times/week.
3. Eat fruit everyday.
4. Spend 30 min everyday doing something for myself (exercise, reading,...).
Iβm back to working, so I have less time to workout and go on long walks. My goal this month is to get used to my schedule and take time everyday to take care of myself: right now my day is split between my job and taking care of my 8 months old daughter once I get home. I want 30-60 min everyday for myself πͺπΌ
05/06: 69.1kg
Same weight. I did good with goals 1 and 3, but we had a lot of rain and didnβt go walking. And goal 4 was also difficult. I need to increase my walking!

@jacau are you comfortable with your .4lb weight loss daily? Thatβs exactly what Iβve been experiencing for about 4-5 days. Exactly. My calories have been low due to some stress so it does make sense, I guess. Itβs gotten me about a pound to goal - but before then - things were so sloooow! Canβt win - I lose slowly I complain. I lose quickly Iβm concerned. Are you?2

End of June GW: 148
Iβve been here before but let myself get lazy and stopped logging/tracking my weight. Now I find myself up 6 lbs. and am motivated to find some accountability to FINALLY get to my target weight and stay there.
My main goal for the rest of the month is to log my food every day and stay within my calorie goals.

Maintenance weight range= 52-54 kg
CW= 53.8 (as of 5/23/20)
BF%= 20-22
Goals for June: [week 6/1-7]
- Follow through the workout plan β (almost didnβt make it today but I managed to do a 30-min glute workout thanks to husband!)
- Decrease sugar intake βοΈ (kind of... Iβve been snacking on protein bars instead but half at a time... π)
- High protein drinks after major weight-sessions β (replacing my Greek yogurt in morning or protein bar for afternoon workouts)
- Devote time in stretch/yoga sessions β (oops... I forgot again π)
- Up dumbbell weights without hurting wrists βοΈ (not really going up but not decreasing. Guess itβs still good?)
πNew end-of-the-month challenge π do 3 standard pull-ups without assistance band (really need to up my back weight for this!)
Finally made it on time to post on a Sunday night!
I think I start to see changes on my body from this workout plan now that Iβve finished the 7th week. For a long time in my life (probably since I was 14) I hated how my arms look. Now theyβre still not perfect, and I doubt if they will soon, but I started to like them and wanna wear more sleeveless tops! π I also tried the pull-up bar my husband just re-installed and was surprised I could do one full standard pull-up. Donβt know how long itβll take but I should challenge myself to do three by the end of the month...? π€6 -

It was even more than 0.4 lbs. When you go from kg to lbs, it's almost .9 lbs. For now, I'm not worried. I assume it was just the initial water weight. Before starting to get serious again, I thought I was doing okay with calorie uptake but there was a good amount of salt and sugar involved. And bread and pasta. What I changed again is the amount of water I drink (more), and changed to include more veggies and less salt/sugar in my diet, calories still around 1700ish on average per day or more - my deficit is more like 200-300 per day. And no cheating or kidding myself. At times, it takes me ages to have the weight go down like this, but the first week usually is like this (yup, started over often enough *sigh*). I also measure other things, like butt or belly. According to those I still got a loooong way to go before truly returning back to normal/pre-Corona Mostly happy seeing that I'm on the right track. It already started slowing down.4 -

Steady wins the race.
Goal #1: Start losing what I regained since February.
Goal #2: Log and post more regularly. Logging at least 5 out of 7 days, posting at least weekly.
Goal #3: Stay active.
extra goal this week: Keep breathing. Stay calm. Embrace the storm.
GW Jun: 72.0 kg
YES! First week and it's a check on all of the weekly goals. Even with the weather being sub-optimal and the walks were a bit shorter than normal just to avoid a shower in the rain Who cares? Nature was in desperate need of some water, and the weight still went down nicely. I assume that from here on out it'll go a bit slower again but it's a nice jump start that helps to get the head back into the game. I feel good and strong.
Next week is going to be a real test though. PMS cravings/hunger levels/emotions and home office/lack of exercise related stress accumulation at home. Doesn't make for the easiest of times with the relationship, especially when the partner works in the same company. So this week I'll add an extra mini-goal: keep breathing. No matter what happens, what tension or snappy reaction comes my way, nor how difficult an exercise gets or how urgent the want for chocolate: FIRST keep breathing a few times, regain the bearings. Only then, and ONLY then, react.
I hope everybody is doing well. Stay strong! Hang in there. Each and everyone of you is inspiration. Thank you for sharing your stories

June 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 June goal is exactly the same as the April and May goal, I'll keep on reporting here on a daily basis until I get to 70 again - sorry for the spamming ladies.
3. Hopefully, we will get back to diving again somewhere this month. I already said this last month, so fingers crossed. The good news is that today I'm not only at the office, but I used my bike to come here !

Yesterday we had a day-long celebration at my bf's family house, where his cousin just finished a master cocktail training and made us try a vast array of delicious cocktails..after which I had zero judgement to not overeat. Very predictable but at least I didn't go crazy about the food.
I have to get my mojo training back! I want to start the week on a good foot, will keep you posted tomorrow what I did this afternoon.3 -
My goal is to eat better and work out 4-5 times a week, I need to lose this extra baby weight!4

Yesterday was an okay day, however my weight is up and I feel bloated. I hope it'll level out in the next few days, though it's very demotivating. Did an hour trail walk with the dog yesterday and I've downloaded Downdog app for yoga and will do some exercises tonight to get my body moving.
@Antiopelle that's awesome you guys can go diving! I haven't dived in over a year as I live far from the sea, and even though with the quarantine I've moved back home by the ocean, in this situation it seems I won't be able to take advantage of it's proximity for now.2 -

Oh wow. You play tennis too? We must be twins separated at birth @guitargirl55
Enjoying everyones' updates here. This week my challenge is to not scratch the %^gfT%$# fire ant bit on my arm. I survived the chigger bite last week so hopefully I can do this too.. It's nicely blistered up already. dang things.
Today is day 31 for me of not eating the entire refrigerator after dinner while watching TV. I was looking for something to binge as I just finished every single type of star trek and ended up with Dolly Parton's heart strings. What a tear jerker tho. I couldn't continue - too much hallmark station stuff.
My goal to avg 5 miles per day is a little toasted with our extreme heat and dew point. But I feel better taking it carefully. So... c'est la vie. Important life lessons for me is that when I don't run a lot I can cut back on food without being a crazy idiot about it.

How was the date night? Did you go out? I hope you enjoyed the heck out of it!
I'm currently trying to get my man to go out with me somewhere this month. There's a new pancake place that opened just 10 minutes walking from home, looks lovely - classic Dutch pancakes . Otherwise in 8 days: order sushi. It's what we did last year on 18 June after we received the key to our new place where we moved in together.
It feels good to slowly return to a more normal life...4 -
Hey ladies,
I've just discovered this group!
My June goal is to lose a minimum of 3lbs. I've lost 10.5lbs over the past 2 months and this week was my first gain in this time (+2.5lbs). Last week I lost 3lbs but I think I was pretty much starving for 3 days and dehydrated so I knew this week I'd be a bit heavier but I've definitely over-indulged.
03/06: -3lbs
10/06: +2.5lbs
I'm:

I run twice a week, do two bootcamp/circuit sessions and two 'other' (either long walks or tennis) a week and I want to make the most of this lockdown/WFH time to make a big change before life opens back up and it's harder to have this much control over my life.
Hopefully this group helps keep me accountable!4 -
