Friday Check-in
PW: 320
CW: 3194 -
DAILY CHECK IN:
WEDNESDAY 03/22
- Calories: 1206 (goal 1200-1600)
- Water: 112 oz
- Gym: no
- Walk: no; though, I did re-stack a half a cord of wood.
- Protein: 90 g (85 goal)
- Fiber: 9 g (25 goal)
- THOUGHTS: just when I think “I’ve got this”, I realize that I, in fact DO NOT got this. It took everything I had to get active today. If it wasn’t for stacking wood, I may not have gotten 10k steps. I snacked more than I should have today. I had to remind myself numerous times that I want to have a healthy life and that I have goals. I had to silence and shut down a myriad of excuses I had lined up. I feel stronger because I plowed right through the negativity. Every day really does bring new challenges and new opportunities to succeed. I’m glad I chose me today. But dang it was hard.
STEPS:
03/19: 12,094
03/20: 23,417
03/21: 12,021
03/22: 13.180
Don’t be so hard on yourself. Look at your steps. Lots of movement. You pushed through the negative thoughts and stacked all the wood. I think that would be a pretty darn good workout. Why do you think you snacked too much? Your calories are low. You would have earned a ton of calories while stacking the wood.
I see you have to get surgery again. That is terrible. Hugs.Megan_smartiepants1970 wrote: »I see my podiatrist this afternoon ... I am 95% sure I will be having a 4th surgery ...

Weigh Day Thursday
CW: 153.7
PW: 153.3
Up a bit this week but the only surprise is that it's not more. I usually have a handle on activity/exercise but rarely can do that in parallel with consistent nutrition. One day...
I was just saying yesterday I can’t seem to sync exercise and nutrition.aactuallyaash wrote: »

My weight loss has really slowed down
I have 2 choices, up my exercise or set my goal weight at 182lb (94lb loss).
I'll wait till the end of the month then decide
There is one more week to the March challenge so let me know next Friday if you want to be moved to maintenance. If you decide to start maintenance I need a maintenance range. If you go over your top range for two weeks we move you back to the main team until you are back down. You still weigh in weekly.indefenceofsprouts wrote: »@lindamtuck2018

Not been my best week food wise as having a little too many 'extras' in the form of some gorgeous fresh sourdough bread and homemade blondies. That 1lb off was by the skin of my teeth. But positive framing: I got to eat delicious things while not going completely crazy and didn't gain weight. Yay!
Nice loss! Love the way you look at it. Everything is ok in moderation.Friday Weigh-In

I am happy with the loss but I keep having a voice in my head saying your cheating. It’s funny I dont feel that about others who have been on Ozempic to lose weight. I just hope the ozempic is going to help me have a better relationship with food. On the days I didn’t have nausea I was still full faster and ate less. Last night, I barely slept but I didn’t eat or binge in middle of the night. That is progress. Also, second Friday of asking hubby not bring me home a chocolate bar. Further progress!
Happy FriYAY!

NSV: A woman just called out of her top floor window to me as I passed to tell me how well I am doing and how I look smaller every time she sees me! I have never seen this woman before in my life
so I guess I should be more aware who might be watching me on my walks lol 5 -

I love your attitude. And, you can send over some of that sourdough, lol.
