@Beautyofdreams I use the standard pronated grip with thumbs on the bar for a neutral grip. Heavier weights or when my hands give out I do use straps. It just bites that I am starting over. Baby weights right now until my ligaments are used to it again. I did buy my own Barbell today for those times my friend is not at home. Lifting is a pairs activity. Alone it can be scary. For grip strength I use my yoga silks and body weight. Just holding the hang improves grip. Congrats on a new higher weight!
I am sure the scan will be where you need it to be. I am afraid of finding out my numbers but you have to know what you are working with.0 -

Now is the time to think ahead about the next month. What habits do you need to put into place to take you one step at a time, one day at a time, towards your goals? The Fat2Fit habit tracker is simple to use - just enter up to 5 habits, and check them off every day you do them. The green check marks are mighty nice! It helps to have a graphic reminder of how you are doing, and how you will get to your goals if you keep it up.
Time to set up your March 2022 Habit Tracker!
Go to https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10857488/fat2fit-habit-tracker-march-2022#latest
Follow the simple instructions and set it up! Be ready to start earning green check marks on Sunday

We all have bad weeks. What are your goals for March?
@mari_moulin
Don’t apologize for a gain. A new month is starting so you can have a clean slate.

Great exercise day!

I will use this weight for your starting weight for the March challenge.

❌Steps 5,620
✅Log Food
Swim 800 laps: 756/800
I gave my self a check for logging food even though it’s not totally accurate. I had to guesstimate the calories from the restaurant. My weight is up a pound from Thursday but that I am sure is water weight from eating out. I am super tired and sore from the last 2 days but I am going to the pool to get those last 44 laps to meet my monthly goal. 🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️🏊♂️2 -

Good morning all. A little late with the check in.
Check in for 2/25:
Steps - 3235.
Calories - 1912
Exercise - none. Went out for bfast with daughter. Huge serving so I cut it in half at the start and put it in a box. Gave blood in the afternoon so no exercise. Wild animal park today.
I haven't been light headed in a few days and my iron was at a great level for the donation. 46. I am now wondering if my iron is connected to my spells since I was lightheaded a lot right before my failed donation attempt. Something for my dr.3 -
Boom! 800/800 laps done!5

Woohoo I am pleased! Sure I'd like it to be more but it's very satisfying to see the number go down. I'm excited to see what happens next week.
I went back to the gym this week - spin class twice! I really like the camraderie and seeing my instructors again. @lindamtuck2018 I hope to get to body pump soon - les mills, I'm sure it's more or less the same as when you took it.
I'm getting ready to get on the treadmill then heading to Albuquerque to see a college basketball game.

Gain of 1.6 :-( I don't know how that happened, but I am not going to stress about it.
I've been diligently drinking 96 oz of water for the last 3 days and will keep doing so.
I will continue to make the best choices and choose wisely.
10 days until the Galapagos Islands!!

50 min. Strength training moderate
33 min. Elliptical. 4.4 miles
50 min. Walk outside 2.9 miles
Well of course I overeat Friday night. But was still to goal on Thursday! Hopefully will keep reaching goal until consistently there then focus more in building fitness and biking. We have a week long bicycle ride across the state called RAGBAI. Its a party on wheels complete with support vehicles, food trucks and concerts.1
