    Just because Covid restrictions aren’t compulsory doesn’t mean they’re not necessarily.
    People are still dying out there……… and the numbers are on the rise again.
    😷Take care! Stay safe!😷

    January focus:
    maintain weight < 145 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
    Work on improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale

    I liked this so much I'm borrowing it.
    Every healthy habit brings me closer to scratching each of these off to NEVER see them again!

    THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
    REMINDERS: One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.
    • Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
    • A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
    • Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
    • The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
    • Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
    • The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
    • When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
    • Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.
    Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!

    Is @_JeffreyD_ taking a break? I've not seen him post in the last couple of rounds. Missing his humor!

    Thanks for asking! I am away from my normal routine for a couple more weeks then I plan to rejoin. I do have my scale with me. I courageously step on it each morning in spite of the results. 🤪

    Whew!!! Glad to hear you are doing well … where did you and your scale travel?

    Take care and enjoy.

    Southern Florida @Lilylady3k . What round are you on now.?

    @whitej1234 - Hi! So your 178cm tall? That’s 5foot 10 inches in US? I have to be wrong. And your goal is to weigh 91 pounds? Just inquiring, not judging one bit. But it seems I have something wrong, as 91 pounds would be suitable for a person 5 feet tall, not 5 feet 10 inches.
    Thanks in advance.

    @SherryRueter Totally too late to answer on my side, but I just saw it now. Goal is 91 kg :) 91 pounds I think my bones alone weigh more then that, haha :)
