Weighted in at 150 last night at the gym after run, and managed my afterwards dinner/snacks a little better, cause was really tired 😂
Those behaviour/ routines are hardest to crack

@Plasicage That after-dinner snack habit is one I really need to break too. I manage well enough during the day, but after dinner I want to feel full, and even though I'm eating enough for dinner that I should feel full, I still want more. It really sabotages the good work during the day.2 -

Is there a way to just add to our one post each day, or do we have to do a new post each time?1
-
Hi @Erika59 , unfortunately you have to copy your previous post and add to it in a new post.
Some folks keep a word document, or similar document, where they can just add the current day's weight, and paste the whole thing into a new post. Hope that helps!2 -

Here comes the water retention 😕
Probably didn’t drink enough water after my 14km run + weights so it’s holding on to available resources.
@ManifestingToday oh I know! For me it’s sweets!! I try to fill up with vegetables during dinner, but somehow always need sugar afterwards. Even when not hungry.
I tried Intermittent Fasting, and it helps with that aspect, but it’s much harder if your schedule is all over the place and you end up not being able to fill up on vegetables before your meal window is over. But progress was going faster before giving up on it. I thought to myself there should be happy middle between the two, but haven’t found it yet. Maybe I should do it for half week then half week off. That might work.3 -

I'd like to join!
I need to get myself together and get some of this weight off. I've slowly put on 20lbs since November of 2022. I was down to 195 from 221. Then the holidays hit and everything went sideways and I just haven't gotten back to it.
I have Hashimotos so my weight loss is slow going, and that makes it difficult to stay positive.
But I'm gonna get to it. Goals I'm setting for myself this month are:
✅️ Work out for 30 min a day. I'm going to workout with my Team Body Project subscription (lots of cardio and body weight / weighted exercises) every other day and walking on the treadmill for 30 min (and increasing the pace over time as well) when I'm not doing the workout videos. My hope is that I won't be too sore to go back to the video after a day on the treadmill, because I tend to give up once I feel like I'm too sore to work out anymore.
✅️ Work on my weekend eating. If I could have the structure I have at work at home on the weekends, I think I'd be golden. My weekend eating habits are horrible, and if I didn't have 2 kids and a husband, I'd be locking the pantry.
✅️ I'm going to stop drinking coffee. I use splenda for sugar and then usually about 7 or so of the individual half and half creamers. I'm just going to drink black tea, as I feel I just need the warm drink more than the actual coffee.
Those are my biggest problems as of now, so that's what I'm going to work on. Also, I'm going to force myself to try to post here everyday even if it's just a weight and a "hi".
I think I may make a chart or spreadsheet where I can track my weight daily and cross off that I did exercise to keep me motivated....kind of like a chore chart .

Welcome, @Making_Impossible_Possible! I totally understand what you mean about having others in the house -- if it was just me, fine. I could get drastic. But having to also have plans for other eaters in the house makes it more challenging for sure. Wishing you success as you start back with plans.

I expected to be up today. Had a bad weekend food choice wise.
But I did get up and do my 30min workout like I said I would. Tomorrow will be the treadmill, then another video on Wednesday.
Food choices today we better, and I'm hoping to be back down tomorrow.4 -

I guess water retention could be associated with lifting weights and sore muscles?? That’s the only thing I struggle fitting in after the weekend. Regardless I’ll do some more lifting when possible.1 -
