I got that Pilates done yesterday, and I'm about to do it today. I'm sticking with the TBL calendar, but started this week late. I'll be caught up by the end of the weekend! Thanks, as always, for the inspiration.
@gak71 enjoy your trip! I like your planning and packing of workout and walking gear.
I'm heading back to the Goal Zone part of the team for December - I think that will actually keep me more on track than being on the regular team. I will always know that if I pass 117 pounds, I'll be back on the regular team in January
taking a spot that someone who is new to us might need. I'll gripe and complain some more about how being small is hard, especially when surrounded by tall people and 20-somethings over the holidays. But then I'll hopefully take them snowshoeing and wear them right out! 4 -
The December Habit Tracker is up and ready for you to plan and set up for success in December. Be sure to plan which days you won't worry about, and which days you hope to stick to the straight and narrow!

@jugar original PW (nov/2019): 198
CW: 178.6
I want to be at or below 174 by January 1st, 2022.
I’m recommitting to NOOM as well as F2F.
I drove my younger daughter to the older’s apartment in Winooski yesterday in order to help with some basic tidying and cooking so the elder (wedding photographer) could get the last projects of the year wrapped up. I figured that it helps to have a cleaner environment whilst working, even though it’s beyond her when drowning in tasks for work to do anything besides laundry.
There are many “multi-tasking-Momma-things” she helped me learn how to do when she was a toddler that I’m glad I can do more automatically now. It’s fun to have both mid/upper 30-year-olds amazed at how many things I can get done in the time it takes them to shower, dress, and put on makeup. Crazy!
I had my booster today and plan to head to bed soon.
I’ve neglected logging food and doing much exercise over the last couple of weeks (I was going to say days) and need to choose 2 things to do this coming week. Narrowing the choices is a good reminder, @jugar. I’ll also make a plan and report back soon. It’s good to hear all the ins and outs of your processes, dear teammates. I appreciate you being a part of my journey. Here’s to plans and flexibility and grace when plans change and mistakes are made.
We’ve all got this!5 -
Hey all!
Well, today turned into what I'll delicately call a blowout...
It wasn't meant to be, but it turned out that way.
I haven't had many of these this year, so I'll just reflect and instead I'll focus on what went well:
-At lunch, Brad and I shared one appy and one main. In the past, we might have gotten one appy and a main each. I also didn't eat my half of each.
-We walked to dinner from our hotel (~30 mins each way). We normally wouldn't have done this.
-The dinner was a 3 course chef's menu (surprise) with wine pairings. I was so full by dessert (this was the bad) that I left half the dessert and half my dessert wine. Old Ashley NEVER left food behind.
-I tracked it all (as best as I reasonably can.)
-I have no desire to make today a norm.
When I say "normally", this is pre-MFP. Our new habits support all of what did happen today despite the blowout.
I'm a foodie at heart. I love food. But overeating is not fun the way it used to be (in the moment anyway...). But, I'm also not bad because I overate. Onwards and upwards!5 -
Today's exercise:
11992 steps and 45 minutes Peloton3 -
The calm of Saturday morning, no need to race about, even though there is a long to do list. I'm signed on to the habit tracker - keeping it simple.

The December Team Chat is UP! Time for new month introductions, commitments, and starting off on the right foot. Continue final weigh-ins here, and head to the new chat to get December officially started:
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10850332/waistaways-team-chat-december-2021/p1?new=1
One thing you might want to do -
Go back to the first couple of pages in THIS month's chat. See what your goals were for November, and reflect on how they went. It is a good way to see what went well, what did not go so well, and to set December goals in consequence. That and the habit tracker are a good combo!
