Definitely on the mend.

• In Maintenance since July 2019
• Smart BMI - optimal weight.
• Muscle/Fat %ages in normal range

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

* maintain weight < 140 (I have been maintaining since July 2019)
* Maintain Daily Solid Habits

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!
220's; 210's; 200's; 190's; 180's; 170's; 160's; 150's; 140's; 130's

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!

I am about 8 kg along the way to lose 32 kg. I use multiple tape measurements (cm) around my body because they aren't affected by salt intake. Apparently I've been trying to lose weight since September 2012, the last time I was at goal weight. Let's see if stopping eating sugary food is going to change things.

Heaviest ever 1st Jan 2021, goal+31.8 kg

Hi I’m a
Audrea, 41, 5”8, 202.8lbs
Goal is 200.8lbs
Round 210
1/2-203.8 😵‍💫clearly all of the late night family movie nights with snacks are catching up with me. Just a few more days of vacation and really enjoying lots of time with the kids as I have had a really rough fall of working lots of OT. Will try and be more conscious to have a lighter dinner instead of all the second helpings and not indulge in late night movie snacks.
1/3-201.4 (so I joined the late night snacking challenge, and have been continuing the couch to 5k, and almost cried to see some progress. I have been battling depression eating since my dad passed away the day of the Capitol riots almost two years ago and haven’t been able to shake being consistent. Praying to be a healthier self with consistency and lifestyle change. Feel far away from my marathon running days at 145 but taking a step today. Today my goal is to calorie count and no snacking past dinner/8pm and to eat only my portion on my plate and not my kids and everything else !
1/4-203.8
1/5-201.6-second day back at work and all three kids back in school and activities so trying to adjust back to the very tight and long days. Thankfully I have been NOT LNS and sticking to the couch to 4K. Focusing on water, portions, and nothing in the mouth past dinner8!
1/6-200.6- late nights with kids and homework already and work deadlines. My focus is do workouts only if I’m able to get enough sleep and not beat myself up about it and No LNS and eating past dinner!!!!
1/7-
1/8
