Hello! I am Amanda, I am back in for the month of May! This is an inspiring group!
My goal for May is to get moving! I am such a procrastinator when it comes to this and I set it as a goal every month and NEVER do it. The weather should cooperate now.
May goals:
💥Walk 3x/week
💥Lose 4 or 5 pounds
OSW: 250
OGW: 150
5/1/23: 199.7
5/31/23 goal: 195
5/1: 199.7
5/2: 199.7
5/3: 199.7 🤨
5/4: 199.7
5/5: 199.0
5/6: 199.0
5/7: 198.7 *walked*
5/8: 197.8 (!)
It’s a new week. I’m going to try really hard to go for a walk or at least get my steps in 3 days this week. I’ve been feeling really tired so it’s a delicate balance.
5/9: 197.8
I am feeling much more lively and promised myself I would only work 10 hours yesterday and go for a walk after. That did not happen. I ended up working 13 hours and it was raining and dark by the time I got done. Mondays are always crazy at work but I need to work on firmer boundaries. Set my work status to “No.” 🤨

@ddainiak I love Monty! 💗 I love pics of animals in our threads! He is here for our weight loss journeys! Does he love the boat?
@Buckeyebabe7l7 How do you get so many steps in every day? Is it intentional? Chasing those grandbabies? I’m envious!
@mkksemail Hallelujah I hear you on the rain being gone!
@jm216 Hows that puppy? Getting big probably! How’s the leash walking going?
@deepwoodslady Donna! So many special events coming up, you deserve to be showered with love and eat a little something special!2 -
@jm216 I meant to send this the other day; congratulation on the graduation. What did he get a degree in?
@joans1976 How do you feel today, hope each day gets better! Take extra good care of yourself.
@deepwoodslady I hear you, social situations are tough. You got this, enjoy your birthday and mother's day. “All these bumps in the road are just there to make you fly." Tamara Geraeds
@39flavours Love how you keep yourself accountable. Where do you find those cute emojis?
@mkksemail Looks like you got in BLC! Fantastic.
My son got received his Bachelor’s degree in Math, Actuarial Science, and Statistics. Thanks for asking! 🥰

@Buckeyebabe7l7 How do you get so many steps in every day? Is it intentional? Chasing those grandbabies? I’m envious!
It is intentional. I do my walk in the morning before the kids get here and I rack up 6000 steps. Then the rest of the day I try to do at least 1000 steps each hour of walking till I'm satisfied or just done....lol I have a large ranch house so I can do loops while the kids are here. But some of the steps I rack up definitely come from chasing the kiddos around.

Here's a picture of four of my grandkids I watch daily...we went to the zoo this last weekend. I had a lot of fun watching them explore the zoo.

A few weeks ago, another challenge I am in had a quest to travel 2 miles in 2 different ways. I pondered on what to do and asked my hubby to get out our bikes from storage. I didn't get to use it to fulfill the challenge as the tires were flat and the chain rusty. Hubby fixed that (yes he's a keeper), and it was ready to go. I haven't been on a bicycle in probably 20 years, but today took it out (just after sunrise so noone would see me) for a 2 mile ride on the linear trail behind my house. The chain may not be rusty, but I sure am.
@JM216 What kind of puppy do you have? How old? You son must be a smart cookie, congratulations again! You must be very proud.
@buckeyebabe717 The grandkids are so adorable. What a wonderful job you have.
@mkksemail The salads look so yummy (and a lot of work)!
@joans1976 Life is too short. I'm hoping that you can cut back on the overtime and put yourself first.
You deserve it! Monty is my joy. We rescued him 4 years ago; and has been the love of our household every since. He is my workout partner, helps me make my step goal everyday! He wasn't sure about the boat when we first got him, but now jumps right in and enjoys the ride. The lake doesn't have a dock to get in and out of the boat, so he has to get in the water to get in the boat. He's a little prissy - doesn't like to get his feet wet. LOL
@gomifune and @39flavours You keep chugging along. Quite an inspiration.
@deepwoodslady Sounds like a day of rest is what you needed!
@nanerkay A "meatless" day sounds like a wonderful idea. I may plan for that this week. Any good recipes to share?

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

05/08-193.4-(Trend Weight 193.2)- It was a quiet day yesterday. I was exhausted after DGS left yesterday. 3 days of babysitting including overnights was tough on this old gal. I ate a bit too much at lunch yesterday with my daughter but I made up for much of it the rest of the day. No exercise. Layed on the couch most of the day trying to get my gumption back after minding my grandson! Much to do today!
05/09-194.2-(Trend Weight 193.3)- I travel today for my 4 month dental cleanings for myself and son. We’ll have a late restaurant lunch and do some shopping while out of town. I’ll try to choose carefully. Tomorrow is an art gallery and concert at the high school my grandchildren attend. I’ll be spending the evening with them. So many foodie things this week! No TMI yesterday or this morning. Otherwise a good day yesterday. I went to the school to walk with my son (like mall walking but no mall here). I ate within my budget.

This is Super Nova Butter Baby….AKA Nova.
My daughter loving calls her Menace, because she is into everything. If it’s within her reach, she thinks it’s hers.5 -

First UP day, after five DOWN days. That's ok - tbh, I was surprised that I had five DOWN days in a row. That's the highest string of DOWN days I've ever had, and only I achieved that a few/couple times. It's usually at most 3, possibly 4, in a row DOWN days. So, ok. It's all good 😁

@ddainiak , Great job, you !!! 💪🚴♀️🚴🚴♂️🚲🚵♀️🚵🚵♂️
And Ty! on salads 🤗0 -
@Buckeyebabe7l7 Monty is a goldendoodle too. They could almost be twins (the Golden Doodles that are not so "Golden"), except Monty has a tuxedo on. Funny your youngest is "Woody". That was the name of one of our past dogs; Woody the dalmatian. He was a mean old coot, I'm guessing that your labradoodle is nothing like that and as sweet as can be.1

When I first got Brutus and would walk him in the neighborhood people would stop me and want to know what kind of dog he was and when I told them goldendoodle you would not believe how many people did not believe me....lol They didn't realize a "golden"doodle could be black! Woody is a sweet heart and so full of energy.
