Today I did a 14/10 fast for my first day. I'm using a fasting tracker and it says that I should be able to eat again tomorrow morning around 10:30, but I'm going to try to extend that a little. It was interesting that, once I got to the 12 hour mark, I wasn't that hungry. I did have some coffee just to make me feel like I was having SOMETHING, then had breakfast food and pretty much skipped lunch. Had wings for supper.
I've had a lot of water today, which is good, and got in a little Hiit and abs.
It's a little early, but I'm settling down in bed listening to a massive storm outside. Y'all have a great night!5 -
Well I will take my weight staying the same instead of going up. My zumba instructor is going to teach at a place that just does classes until the gym reopens for us. So class will restart sunday. Only 15 people can be in the class and you have to sign up ahead of time. I have signed up for the next 2 sundays so far. I'm so excited.
I have been reading up on weight loss. I try to follow calories but have never paid attention to the macros. So I am going to try to follow that, how many carbs, proteins and fats I can have per day. They say to do carb cycling, I am going to give it a try and see if it works. Not holding my breath, my husband said the guy is a scam but what can it hurt. I didn't spend any money.4 -

I wasn't sure how my weigh in would go. Beginning of TOM but I still managed to lose a pound! So looks like I made it to my 2nd goal weight. So I will pick a new goal weight of 155. I mean i don't have an actual goal in mind, im happy where I'm at, but if my body wants to keep losing that's fine by me lol. My fb memories showed me a pic back from 2011. If anything I guess the weight im at in this pic is my ultimate goal. I was 147

@1theresamcvean
my conference was virtual. I attended in person two previous years. Wasn't sure how it would go but the organizers did a fantastic job. I think I'm almost as exhausted after 3+ days of virtual conf as I am when I travel...So many interesting conversations and ideas. Hope I can go to MT next year but this year was an acceptable sub...
The knee thing is a pain but I'm used to it...it has always been this way. I think I was in my early 20's when I realized that didn't happen to everyone (is a genetic thing, many in my bio family have varying levels of it).
Also, my hubs & I are Pooh fans, so I showed him your weigh day post. He laughed a long time...he usually hates it when people fiddle with Pooh stuff but he'll make an exception. He's still laughing.
@Zumba_Luvah
great job! and, terrific pic! Way to go!

@kirsten11872 - Really impressive lost! I notice from your wall that you have lost just over 25 lbs, so I am going to ask the mods to put you in the recognitions announcements tomorrow.
@gingerpwr - Excellent quote and so true!
@melaniedscott - Great that you enjoyed your virtual conference!
@brown6267 - Excellent maintenance streak! I really consider maintenance more challenging than weight loss. You are doing great!
@Zumba_Luvah - Another excellent loss! I think you will know goal when you get there. You look so great in that FB photo!
@hope002 - Amazing loss! You are just a few lbs away from a 50 lbs weight loss. So impressive!
@ljdanny - I know that you have been having a lot of stress lately, so a maintain is a win, congrats!
@tryingagain5 - Really great that you are staying in touch with your trainer. He should be please as you are doing great!4 -
Vegan Eggplant parmigiana with salad for dinner. Had a perfect eating day. Been on track all week!
Congratulations to so many of you doing so well!!!5 -
Had an excellent day! My energy is slowly coming back. Made snickerdoodle cloud cookies, cleaned the fridge and the freezer, cleaned the kitchen and straightened up the rest of the house, sent my Saturday text message to all my kids, made peach oatmeal for breakfast, green beans, red potatoes, garden tomatoes and cucumber pickles for lunch, then enjoyed the pool swimming, floating and lounging with a good book...all by myself! Heavenly!
Kids asked if they could come over. No. It was hard but I really needed this weekend to rest. No kids. We invited the old folks upstairs to watch a movie with us tonight and to eat tangerine popsicles for dessert.
Today feels like everything good about summertime. We’re taking Lula Mae for a morning walk tomorrow. She is really doing well. She is on thyroid medication and has lost about 15 pounds this summer. She is a much happier doggie.5 -

I don't know the last update I put in here, I feel like July has been a write-off so far really. I'm still in transition with my meds and it's only kind of controlling my migraine/nerve pain, plus I am back to being exhausted which I think might be the increase in one of my meds. Good news is that Neurosurgery have finally sent me a follow-up appointment. Our health-care system is free, but it can be slow - I had an MRI last December and this is the first I have heard from them since. Still, I'll take that over what America has any day.
I've been having a bit of a mental battle with myself - I've had days craving more food and specifically carbs/bread. I don't know if this is my body telling me what it needs because of pain and nausea, my BED trying to trick me to eat more/turn into a binge, or my anorexia trying to get me to overly restrict. So I've been sticking to my calorie goal or going a bit over, but staying under my maintenance calories. I've only done 4 days of exercise in the month so far because I am just not well enough and that's also doing my head in. In the past I would have pushed pushed pushed and probably made myself a whole lot worse in the process, but that never helped. At least now I can recognise that, and I don't like the inactivity but I know this will pass.
In other news, Tuesday is my daughter's birthday so today I am making a "Pigs in mud" birthday cake for her. She's have a few friends over this afternoon. Also they're making ice-cream sundaes. A lot of calories floating around my house, but I don't want any of them so it's all good!5 -
@Cafelelia thanks! I’m feeling good! I’m in the zone!😊3

@cafelelia
Yes, it is nice that my trainer is staying in contact with his clients even though the gym isn't open right now. He wants me to succeed and thinks it's great that I found different ways to workout at home.3 -
Hello all! Hope you’re doing well! I’m am feeling great! Dropped about 20 pounds since mid-May! I have not been at this weight for a while, almost back in the 150’s! Feels so good!
I have been back on my regular workouts, 18:6 IF & eating has been on point! I also started using Isagenix products. They’re really good if anyone is interested, I can pass along the info. I did a 2 day cleanse last week & this week, it really boosted my weight-loss & I still dropped more even after going back to eating regular food.
I bought a few new summer clothing items, I bought size medium, was not sure if they would fit, but they did & the fit comfortably, I was so happy! I have 1 pair of jeans I bought a while ago, they didn’t fit, but I kept them & now they fit! They’re a little tighter than I would like, but a few more pounds & they’ll be perfect by the time Fall rolls around.
Hope you’re finding success! This journey is not easy, lots of ups & downs!
Have a great weekend! 😊6 -

Ok... I don’t think it’s as bad as it looks!!!! I forgot to weigh in until late in the day after I had already eaten and I also drank a lot today!!! I started off the week really well S-W spot on with exercise and food! Yesterday was a ridiculous day with food though, it was like I was eating everything I could get my hands on! Hope all is well with everyone, I haven’t been on in a few days to read comments, I’ll try to get through them later or tomorrow!4 -
Saturday 7/18
Food: good
Water: 80 oz
Exercise: 30 minutes
I set the timer for 10 minutes and walked up and down the stairs and then did 20 more minutes of jumping/running type exercises with a few easier things thrown in. I got a new heart rate monitor and it showed 250 calories burned, average heart rate was 134 and peak heart rate was 159. It was nice to see that information. I had one from the gym that stopped working correctly so they got me a new one, which was really nice of them. It's through an app on my phone so I was able to watch my heart go up. That was fun to see. As my heart rate dropped I would purposely go harder to watch it go back up.
I spent a good part of my day in the kitchen. I made a crockpot meal, overnight oats, energy bites, a smoothie and a veggie dish. My fridge is all set for breakfasts and dinners and snacks for next week.
It was really hot and humid here so I stayed inside all day. I went out around 8pn to get my mail and a couple of neighbors were sitting outside so I joined them for a couple of hours.

Cake alert... pigs in mud. I had a tiny piece but it's so rich that I couldn't eat much at all. Now I just want vegetables for dinner!
