Wishing you and your husband the best, Ann. Cat, that IS exercise.
I'm still struggling with eating.

Today, I am going to complete my exercise, track every morsel of food that I eat, and stay within my calorie limit.1

Hey Randi, ME TOO!!!!!
I am snowed in on the mountain anyway, so time and motive.
3 eggs and a handful of grape tomatoes for breakfast. I do better with exercise on protein. I know it is supposed to be carbs, but carbs just make me hungry and i crave bad stuff.
If we can be good for the next 3 days, maybe the Monday weigh in will make us smile. I plan to try.1 -
I am the same weight, got a few exercises around hospital visit and today groomed both dogs Ruby was amazing just need to train her to have her ears plucked I think that will be a challenge nut it's a must for a poodle.
Have a good weekend

I ended up a little higher on calories than I would have liked, but overall it was a good day. Cat, I chose a high protein breakfast today, too. The higher protein seems to get my day off to a better start. Ann, I hope your husband is improving. I'm glad you have the dogs.0

Yipee lost a 1 lb so all good, going in the right direction.
Husband out if hospital but still not well, personally I think he should have stayed in longer but there was no stopping him.
Have a good week everyone.1 -

I was good for half a day.
Trying harder tomorrow1 -
Good morning. The puppy is asleep. LOL
I really want to be a part of this group, just having a hard time getting me time to do it.
Cat, I saw your post of eggs and tomatoes for breakfast and had to chuckle. That is one of my favorites, and I thought I was the only one. LOL
Went to a yoga fusion class yesterday. With the pandemic and two major surgeries, I have not been to a class in a few years. It was terrific and I will be going back 🙂
Up a tiny bit this week, playing with my program to see what works and what doesn't, but I feel better and found some "me time "
Stay strong.

Spent 3 days at my youngest sons house keeping a Great Pyranees while his family traveled. They had all my favorite junk foods and I caved. Up 1.5 pounds and wondering if I can unload it by the Monday weigh in. Eating well today plus exercised. Babysit the youngest grands next two
Days, so it will be hard.1 -
Getting there but still not on track with exercise I need to be more consistent.1

I'm delaying my weigh-in. i had salty restaurant food for dinner and am swollen this morning.0
-
Lost 12 ounces.
After 3 says of not being able to exercise or track calories, I am thrilled just not to have gained weight.
Drink lemon water, Randi. That is my granny’s unbloat remedy and it works for me.
Fingers crossed for everyone to have a positive result when stepping on the dreaded scales 😊1 -
In a funk. It always happens at this time of year. I don't mind the cold, and I actually like snow, but the lack of sunlight is killing me. I feel lethargic and I'm craving carbs.

I can relate Randi. When it snows, I eat all day.0

Also missing: Energy, motivation, sense of well-being, etc., etc., etc. If you have found them, please return them immediately.
Found: Lethargy and intense cravings for carbohydrates. If they are yours, please make arrangements to pick them up immediately.2 -
Good morning.
Randi, you hit the nail on the head! The lack of sunshine 🌞 can be very difficult. I think we are all struggling.
I hope to get to the Y today to do some strength training on the machines. I am not a gym rat, by any means, but until I can build up some strength, the machines are the safest.
Started a yoga fusion class and really liked it. Need to make it a habit.
Weather guy says sun is on the way. We will see!!
Have a great day.2 -
Jan, you had shoulder surgery not that long ago if my memory is correct. Machines are a good idea.
What is yoga fusion?
Fingers are crossed that we all have a great day.0 -
Shoulder surgery was in May and several months of PT. Got lazy again and knew I needed a to do something.
Yoga fusion is a mix of yoga and light weights for some strength training. Fun!1 -
Today I tracked nothing, but I ate pretty well if i ignore four Hershey kisses my granddaughter shared with me. Exercise was 20 minutes of dancing to the Ghostbusters theme song while batting a beach ball back and forth. My grandgirl invented this and calls it DANCEBALL. It’s pretty intense for a 70 year old. Not so much if you are four😂
Yoga fusion sounds interesting. I will poke around on youtube and see what I can find.0 -
Cat, that sounds like a workout to me. Today has been a bust. Hubby and I got the shingles vaccine yesterday and we’ve been feeling lousy today. I did some slow walking in the house and some gentle yoga, but that’s all I could handle.0
-
Saturday was a good day. I tracked loosely, but did well and just missed 10,000 steps. I need to remember to look at my steps before bed so maybe I can round them out. LOL1
-
Today was much better.
See you tomorrow at the weigh-in. 0 -
Up 3/4 of a pound.
I can do the food part but finding time/energy/motivation to exercise on babysitting days eludes me. When I mess up the eating part it is because i am being bad snd i know what I am doing. I feel like I can control that. Last week I had four days of up at five and not home til 7 at night babysitting. Four days with no intentionsl exercise. I feel like I can’t control this.
Am I making excuses?
Probably.
I need to find a way to overcome this.0
