@murdog3t, I am glad it is not because you are all "old bags"....the bagged lunch thing is so much better!!
@cmhubbard92, your lunch looks wonderful! I do not have an instant pot or an air fryer....maybe I could get more creative in the kitchen if I did! Sorry you did not have a great sleep, but sleep is just as important as exercise! So skipping the yoga was probably a good decision for you.
@loraloha22, I see you are also adding some jogging into your walking....well done!!
@knlizght, some more wonderful and varied, exercise choices I see!!
@richmondwriter, maybe you haven't been following the prescribed recipe for weight loss this week, but you have been awfully busy, so I am sure it will all balance out in the end!
@prehistoricmoongoddess, look at you.....plodding along, doing your thing, and losing weight!! Another great weigh-in, and into the 60's as an added bonus!!
@mooreshelly09 and @DaffyGirl88, nothing specific to say, just keep up the good work!!
@erikNJ, where are you? Don't go away....dig in and do this!!
@brandi_84, and @thedestar, How are you two doing? I hope you are finding some ways to deal with life's current stressors. (hugs)1 -

@HASWLRS thank you! Both the instant pot and air fryer give you so many awesome options, and really eliminate having to use multiple pans/dishes! I love it! My tiredness is still here today... I feel pretty exhausted... part of me is wondering if it is because I haven't had my powerade which gives me the extra salt I need when doing low carb... I ended up leaving work early because I wasn't feeling well (add in a lovely migrane to the mix!)1

@cmhubbard92
I hope you will feel better soon. Get some rest and some powerade.
I haven't had a chance to tell you how cute the kitty is. I love her name. The pups look so cute with her. Are they getting along well?1 -
@HASWLRS
I've gotten through most of the stress for now. It just seems that if I get off track it's hard to remember to get back on track.
I absolutely need to plan meals ahead and plan for at least one slow cooker/instant pot meal a week, so I don't resort to pizza everytime the unplanned comes up.
My daughter isn't able to exercises with me right now, So I have to push harder to get motivated to do them by myself. Its more fun with a buddy. I know a lot of people exercise on their own, so I am just going to have to suck it up.

@brandi_84 - that sounds like a good idea to plan ahead on the meals, and have one slow cooker meal ready.
@HASWLRS - thank you for your encouragement! You've been doing great with your commitment each day.
@murdog3t - I am so happy the air quality has improved!! Also I love the nickname of "the bags."
@knlizght - yes, some weeks are so strange--weight is really a fluctuating thing. Congrats on the 6 pounds loss so far!!
@prehistoricmoongoddess - great loss this week!
@cmhubbard92 - the pot roast and brussel sprouts looks yummy!4 -

I’ve had a 1:1 with my trainer at the gym today (he made me sweat just looking at him 😉) he wants me to hit a protein goal of 160g everyday so I’m going to include that in my daily post if that’s okay? This accountability is really helping 😃2 -
For those who meal prep and cook ahead:
I worry about the taste of meat being bad if I microwave it after it has been cooked. With the exception of casseroles, I eat leftover meat cold. What is your opinion on microwaved foods? Or do you heat it back up on the stove?0 -

I love my air fryer ❤️ You really should - it makes the best chips 👌🏼0 -

If it’s cooked properly the 1st time then reheating shouldn’t be a problem - Reheating rice is a lot more ‘high risk’ (rice needs to be cooled quickly if it’s going to be reheated)
I have a degree in nutrition and exercise science (believe it or not 😂)

@brandi_84 thanks! And she is doing well! The dogs totally love her but she is teaching them personal space! I am not worried about her getting hurt, as I am of them getting a nice pat here and there when they annoy her... she's warmed up a lot! And with reheating meat, I think it just has to be cooked and stored properly in the first place. I am constantly heating up leftovers. I have never noticed a big change in taste, either.
@richmondwriter thank you! They were delicious!
@DaffyGirl88 you should! I got the air fryer for christmas, but I scored a good deal on the instant pot at Walmart! I am so glad I got it!1 -

Stressing a bit this week, the scale has not moved since last Friday's weigh in 😏 I know its better than a gain, but I would take an ounce 🤣
@brandi_84 I meal prep my lunch and dinner for the week every Sunday and have never had a problem. My husband won't eat what I eat and I find that easier then cooking 2 meals a night.
@daffy_girl I love my air fryer. I cook my veggies, chicken breast and even salmon in it. I got a instant pot for Christmas but haven't experimented with that yet...it kinda scares me lol2 -

You still have a couple of days left for the scale to move. You have already lost 8lbs this month, I believe. It is not unusual to have a maintenance week, here and there. You're doing great!
My husband doesn't eat what I eat either. Unless it is steak or pizza. I usually have to cook two separate meals. And when I am exhausted I end up going easy and not healthy. I may do a couple of meals and see how I like it and go from there.

That is awesome that you have a degree in nutrition and exercise science.
Thank you for the rice tip. My daughter loves rice, but I usually throw out the leftovers and always make it fresh.1
