And I'm so sorry to be recording yet another gain. I blame it all on the new muscles that I'm growing as a result of Heather Robertson's program that I am following.
Ironically, I am getting more trim and my clothes are fitting better. My food intake was much better this week too, so I'll just have to front it out and keep going. A bit fed up .. !!

Good Morning Beautiful People!
This is me today… I got 8 hours of sleep but not a restful 8 hours.. so I guess I can say I was in bed 8 hours.
I didn’t let that stop me from going to the gym this morning. I’m already at 60% my step goal for the day. 🎉🙌🏼
Coffee, Church, then ready my house for the Super Bowl. This house is not a sports house, so for us it is about the fellowship!
Wherever you are today, make good choices!
❤️🦋

Nothing sorry or ironic about that! Changing body composition is a big win - especially when you actually enjoy putting on those clothes and feeling great. Keep on keeping on!And I'm so sorry to be recording yet another gain. I blame it all on the new muscles that I'm growing as a result of Heather Robertson's program that I am following.

Hey team! Happy Sunday. We have been taking it mostly easy around here. I got caught up in eating way too much last night so I have the regret of that to deal with this morning, a skill I need work on... anyway, it's a sunny day and we will walk our dog and I really hope to get on the Peloton today because I've been avoiding it. Last week was stressful and rather than lean into exercise I spent too much time being sedentary.
I had a great breakfast yesterday, I've been trying Ghost protein powder and I find it makes things very voluminous when it's whipped up.. anyway I used it in a smoothie bowl and it was so thick with the minimal liquid and frozen fruit that I felt like I was eating ice cream for breakfast. Fun! Brad doesn't consider a smoothie a meal so I usually only have those when I'm making my own breakfast... a fun option.
I've been doing some more deeper cleaning tasks and yesterday involved clearing out the freezer with food that was freezer burnt and never getting eaten. Feels good to purge!6 -
Dearest Ashley @ashleycarole86,
You know my workout routine so well - bless you! I DO normally go to a yoga class on Thursdays, but I didn't go last week. I was exhausted and just couldn't make it in the end. So all I did on the 9th was just a pathetic step count.
Anyway, onwards and upwards as they say. There is great excitement in the Fedden household at the moment because I am going down to London for a few days tomorrow. I have a photoshoot scheduled for Tuesday, so I'm going to sandwich that appointment between a couple of days visiting my mum! I will try to do one workout session when I'm down there and will pack my workout gear for the trip. Thank goodness it's half-term and I don't need to go to college next week!
@ChelleChelle1031 - I do envy your step report - I really need to do better. And thank you for sharing your pix of the "2 brain cells"! It made me smile!
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday, Friends.

@YinxFed -
it is a true daily challenge for me. I work from home at a desk job. Last year I averaged 3,029 steps a day average. This year I’m almost to the halfway point of what I did for the entire year last year.. Wow!!
I made a goal for myself, to lose weight. That goal included stepping 10k+ steps everyday this year. This then forces me to be accountable to
exercising, as I get most of those steps from the morning treadmill and afternoon walks.

@ChelleChelle1031 that is awesome!!! what an improvement already! You're on track to walk almost 4 million steps in 2024. keep it up!
@ashleycarole86 I hear you on the sedentary-ness. Snowboarding on the weekends is great but now that my yoga challenge is done for January, I am committing to a new weekly routine for the rest of Feb and probably March, too. Strength on Mondays & Thursdays. Dance cardio with my girls on Tuesdays. Walks on Wednesdays and Fridays (unless traveling friday). Snowboard Saturdays if applicable. Yoga/stretch or walk on Sunday. I've been spending too much time in my armchair lately, and I don't want to completely lose the muscle I built in my fall workout challenge. Plus the spring challenge will probably kick off by the end of March so I want to swing back into that schedule without it being a shock to the system.
I have about 2.5hrs until some friends arrive for the Super Bowl. I have a LOT of cooking to get done before that (both for the game and for my week), plus a yoga video, plus a shower, my hair is an absolute mess. ready, set, GO!3 -
Wow! Lots of go go go in here. I have been doing sit sit sit sit write write write write all day again. But it will be done soon! The final version has to be gone on Wednesday, so Tuesday is the limit for me to put anything else in there. I think I can get just about finished tomorrow morning.
My stepmother will be seriously disappointed that I am not watching the super bowl. She got me into watching football when I was down there to help out with my father, and I even saw the Chiefs play a couple of times! I started to kinda understand a little bit of the game. And I remember some of their names! But I'm not watching - I will actually catch up on the highlights tomorrow or sometime, which I never have done in the past. I hope all of you who are into the game have a fun time with it! I'm rooting for Pacheco! Without even looking!
Now it is time for nag nag nag!

So, I had a good weekend, we started off yesterday on a 3.3-mile hike, but we couldn't find the short cut to avoid the 1.6-mile part, so we did the whole thing, and ended up doing 5 miles. It was a nice hike, but it was very hilly, and my glute muscles are feeling it today. Also discovered my waterproof shoes aren't waterproof when you step ankle deep in the creek. I do not like crossing rocks, and I didn't think the water was that deep. Lol.. but I was impressed with how quickly they dried out while on the rest of the hike, they didn't bother my feet much at all, so they earned a spot in the luggage to Ireland.
When we got home, I prepped for the week, its tuna salad week, or as my husband calls it celery, onion salad with a little tuna. I eat mine with Triscuits, it's one of my favorite lunches. I also cut up a cantaloupe, and it is flavorful, it's really a crap shoot to get a good one this time of year. We made homemade pizza for dinner, it was yummy. I also made cupcakes; I did chocolate fudge with buttercream icing. I had one and it did not agree with me at all, so I guess that's a plus, because they were very yummy, but after that tummy distress, I will not be eating another... I only made 12 and threw away the leftover batter and icing, I never learned this when I was little, but you can throw unused food away that you don't want, and it really would not benefit children in other countries if I saved it or forced myself to eat it.
I did not watch the Superbowl, it just did not appeal to me, so I skipped it.
Saturday, I got up exercised, then went and got a facial, it was lovely.
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend, on to a great week !
