    @AustinRuadhain Thanks. I'm glad, too, I hate being miserable lol! I agree with what you said about goals...spot on! Congrats on having a good day yesterday and getting in that exercise.

    @TwistedSassette Yes! I love this image, thanks for this. <3 That's great you had a healthy meal of fish and the scale went down. Here's to the scale staying down!

    @TeresaW1020 Thank you, I am continuing to feel better and I'm so glad. Sometimes the depression and anxiety can last for a bit and it makes it hard to do anything. :( re: changing my goals...I have learned from all of you! You guys are the smart ones. ;) That's too bad that the cleaning guy ignores the unused pews. But Yay for steps! Congrats on the loss, you are doing amazing!!!

    @Katmary71 Thanks, me too! How are you doing?

    Hi all. I did not track yesterday (except my breakfast) and I feel a little lost because I didn't track, I may go back and track what I ate. Even though I was off yesterday, it ended up being a busy day. I went and got groceries, went to Joann Fabrics, and took a nap, and then picked up my husband from work. Luckily, I had put carnitas in the crockpot because I know I wouldn't have wanted to cook last night.

    Wednesday:
    Calories: over/under: ???
    Water: over/under: under
    Exercise: walk
    - track 90% of food intake - not accomplished
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day - 50% accomplished
    - put my utensil down between bites - not accomplished
    _____________________________________________
    Goals or Improvements for tomorrow:
    - track 90% of food intake
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day
    - put my utensil down between bites

    Fantastic weigh ins from @davidji82 @TeresaW1020 @Cornanda - great work!!

    @trooworld Sounds like some kind of day. I’m glad you could take a nap and already had dinner sorted! I hope today is a better day.

    I’m pleased to report that MIL has gone home! She still needs a daily IV but the doctors want to see her every couple of days and she needs to start physio so it wasn’t going to work to bring her back here. We didn’t mind helping her out, but she just makes it twice as hard as it needs to be so hubby & I are both glad to be able to go back to normal!
    My water weight is gradually dropping still. I’ve had a few dinners out for work this week so that’s messed me up a little. But I’ve been quite active and still tracking so I know it’s just water retention and will go away soon enough.
    This weekend is forecast to be HOT (tomorrow will be 40C/104F!) so hoping to spend more time in the pool!

    100 DAY CHALLENGE GOALS
    Day 52: Friday 13 November
    1. Log calories eaten: Yes - 33/52
    2. 20 mins exercise: Yes - 29/52
    3. Record a calorie deficit: Yes - 27/52

    THURSDAY CHECK IN Nov 12
    PW 191.4
    CW 195.2
    LTD -2.2 🙄
    TTL loss: 31.2 lbs
    PPE plan: =|> previous week. Nov 5-11:
    - 45,455 steps TTL 🔴
    - 2 Run/walk ( 5.7 Km ) 🔴
    - 3 Strength (110 Min) 🟢
    - 1 Yoga (30min ) 🟢
    - 3 HiiT (30 min) 🟢
    - 6 days food tracking 🔴
    Not a stellar week when I look at the numbers however my waist is down a full inch! I really pushed the weights on strength training so have a lot of DOMS which means inflammation so will expect a whoosh in the next couple weeks when my body adjusts to my improved commitment to making it pick up and put down heavy stuff 😆

    Can I change my weekly weigh in day to Sundays? Forgot that was my ‘day’ in the past as its a better day for me all around to help focus on the week ahead.

    Mantra for me this next week: to get outside of your head you must get outside of the house!

    @TwistedSassette Thanks, I'm glad dinner was done, too! That's good your MIL went back home and now you can resume life as normal. Great that you tried to balance the meals out with a lot of activity, well done! Wow, that IS hot. I'd want to be in the pool, too.

    @SammyDee2015 Congrats on the inch loss, that's great that you are keeping track via measuring too. I like your mantra for next week.

    @raleighgirl09 Thank you so much. Yes, these past few days have been much better.

    Hi all. Yesterday was a busy day but I managed to track everything I ate thanks to pre-tracking. The scale didn't move this week but I am not surprised as I had some dessert treat I made earlier in the week a couple of times. I've been having better days, I think because I'm keeping busy: I'm doing a hobby (sewing) and have had several appointments. I hope today to do some more sewing and relaxing. Take care.

    Wednesday:
    Calories: over/under: over
    Water: over/under: under
    Exercise: walk
    - track 90% of food intake - 100% accomplished
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day - 25% accomplished
    - put my utensil down between bites - not accomplished

    Friday Check-in
    🟢Food on plan, weighed, logged
    🟢Calories in Green
    🟢Workout - 50 min/6 days
    🔴Breathing Ex (10 min)
    🟢Martial Arts forms - 2/day
    Oops to the breathing work. I didn't do it at the usual time and simply forgot later in the day. Onwards today!
    I did well on exercise yesterday. After letting resistance/weights work go for a bit, I am back at it and happily have sore arms today!

    @mss9675 @davors19 - Great job holding steady! 👍🏽

    @trooworld - Hurray for weight staying steady when things have been challenging. And hurray for hitting your food and water goals yesterday! I hope your sewing projects go well this weekend! 🧵🧷

    @raleighgirl09 - Something I have done if seriously hungry late at night has been to declare that I can only eat something worthy but not so appealing. A piece of plain chicken breast or some raw non-sweet vegetables.

    @SammyDee2015 - I love your commitment to picking up and putting down heavy things! 💪🏾

    @TwistedSassette - How great that life is getting back to normal. It is great that you were so helpful with your MIL, but it sounds awfully nice to have life now returning to no0rmal for you and your husband.

    @Cornanda - Wowsers! What a great weigh-in! 🏆

    @Firefly743 @TeresaW1020 davidji82 @bethanie0825 -- 🌟 Woohoo! Great weigh-in! 🥳

    @TeresaW1020 -- Awww, thanks for the compliment about maintenance. It is an ongoing project for sure.

    @Katmary71 - Thanks for making me smile with this: "Exercise- arm cardio, core, stretching, cat petting." Seriously, though, your finding ways to stay in motion while you deal with health issues is super respiring!

    @TwistedSassette Glad you have your house back!

    @SammyDee2015 Love your mantra, I tend to overthink and analyze the heck out of things, I totally get it!

    @raleighgirl09 Sounds like you had a tough night but are doing better today, hang in there!

    @adhmrh Prayers for your son's recovery. Congratulations on your husband's retirement, how exciting!

    @TeresaW1020 I love your decorations, your house looks beautiful!

    Weigh in Apple852hk
    Week 3 - Nov 2020 Sunday
    PW 133.3lbs (60.5kg)
    CW 136lbs (61.8kg)
    LTD about 45.8lbs (20.8kg)

    Gained 3lbs - but I've been snacking on chocolate and easilyfrvouring 150g per sitting so I'm not just eating it slowly. Maybe I should try eating carrots and hummus instead when I feel the urge to eat for the crunch.

    Not eaten food out just a ciabatta ham for lunch on Thursday. But had carb everyday at home: pasta, toast, couscous

    I'm eating breakfast every day again but I'll try and just eat yogurt for the first half of next week.

    Drinking tea again means I'm going to the toilet more. I'll try and break this habit this coming week and drink less tea and more herbal tea if I need something warm.

    GOALS:
    1. Instead of chocolate, eat
    2. Drink less tea, drink herbal

    Have a good week ahead🥰

    P.S.
    @broncobuddee am I not part of the group as I wasn't listed on the weight in reminder? Please let me know if I need to do anything? Thank you

    @AustinRuadhain I hate when I push a goal off until later in the day and then I forget to do it! You had a great day yesterday!

    @adhmrh I'm sorry that you had a stressful work week. Hopefully, you can enjoy the weekend! Congrats to your hubby, how wonderful to retire! You must be stressed about your son, I am wishing the best for him. Hugs to you!

    @TeresaW1020 That's probably true! Thanks for that perspective. Now, onward and downward! ;) I hope you have fun with the kids. I LOVE YOUR CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS!!! I can see why it took you several days to do it, that looks like a lot of work!

    @Katmary71 That's nice that you will have your guy friend over for a few months. The cats should like it, no? I'm assuming he's bringing his kitty. I hear you about the book situation, that's why I had to switch to Kindle books (no room in the new condo!). I miss paper books though. :( I'm glad you enjoyed your chili, that does sound perfect for a raining night!

    Hi all. It's a beautiful day in SoCal, I'm going to enjoy it! I hope you have a wonderful Sunday as well.

    Friday:
    Calories: over/under: over
    Water: over/under: under
    Exercise: walk
    - track 90% of food intake - 100% accomplished
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day - 25% accomplished
    - put my utensil down between bites - not accomplished
    _____________________________________________
    Goals or Improvements for tomorrow:
    - track 90% of food intake
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day
    - meditate for at least 5 minutes a day

    @apple852hk - You're all set! :) You don't often make the reminder list because you're usually very diligent about getting your weigh in posted. The weekly cutoff is Saturday night so I'm usually just having to remind those who I haven't seen a post from during the week. Your weigh-in is Sunday - the start of the week - and you've been great about posting on time! Thanks for that!

    @broncobuddee thanks for the switch!
    Nov 15 Sunday Check in/UPDATE:
    SW 193.2 ( Oct 22)
    BW 191.4 ( Nov 5)
    PW 195.2 (Nov 12)
    CW 194.2 ( Nov 15)
    LTD still up 1.0 lb from start 🙄
    TTL loss: 30.6 lbs

    GOAL =|> previous week.
    Nov 8-14:
    - 59.5k steps 🟢
    - 4 Run/walk (14.9Km ) 🟢
    - 3 Strength (1hr48min) 🟢
    - 1 Yoga (30 min ) 🟠
    - 3 HiiT (30 min) 🟠
    - 67 HR weekly avg 🟢
    - 7 days food tracking 👌

    Added in my weekly avg resting HR because I do track it and pay attention as I am trying to balance my activities to get, then keep it lower (the more I run the lower it goes, but heavier i am and the heavier I lift the higher it gets and the worse I feel). Goal is in the 50’s.

    My mantra continues til next week: to get outside of your head you must get outside of the house.

    :star:The Green Challenge :star: Percentage of people who lost weight this week. No matter how small the loss the weights are recorded in green. Remember that even if your team doesn’t rank the highest in weight loss for the week you can still be the Green Percentage winner by having the most losses in your team! So keep it up!! B)
