At least I logged it, even though it was not pretty. Exercise was functional yard work and doing some tree climbing. What does it feel like to deny myself???

A day of meetings and errands yesterday. My mom’s birthday is coming up, and my dad is in a nursing home. He asked me to arrange a special lunch (private meeting room) at his facility for mom and get a card for him to give to her. Happening next week. My DB and his wife also invited.

11/12- 170.0
11/13- 169.8
11/14- 171.0
11/15- 171.2 This 170 barrier is proving to be a real challenge! My calories were very good yesterday but my dinner was a slice of pizza eaten later than normal.
What I eat and when I eat it seems to be making a bigger difference than just over all calories.
I could probably benefit from an eating plan that is configured more for an athlete based around workouts than just a straight forward CICO.
It’s a slippery slope for me to get overly obsessed with macros and calories. It can lead me to a path of disordered eating. I’ll have to be thoughtful on how I frame this.9 -

I joined this group in Rnd 245 on Dec 18 2023, when I realized I was eating my way through the holidays; I finally got on the scale and was hovering just under 150 lbs. It took about 4 months to reach my goal weight of 125. Sounds great, but I’ve done this before, which is why I’m still here.
It’s not just about losing, it’s about changing the habits of a lifetime that keep me stuck in self-defeating cycles with food.

About Me & R278 Commitments:
********************************F66, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean P:E (ProteinG> (Cg+Fg) A clean/whole food WOE- (🚫processed foods). Track macros, all fitness and NSVs. I’ve had an unhealthy relationship with food my entire life.
HW 172lbs in 2010. Lost 30lbs in 2014 to 128lbs. Crazy🎢 for 10years. Joined JGMTD R231 7/31/23. Lost 15lbs 8/1 -11/23. Said goodbye FOREVER to the 🎢! I’ve named my maintenance journey “#HSF” & “Healthy Strong Fit” on my way to
📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻Nov Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Nov:
1. P:E: Protein g greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and cals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while 🏋🏼♀️🤸🏼♀️ ⏱️🎾. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. 🙏📝📚🧐 - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of “leveling up” because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. I’ve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. 🏋🏼♀️this is my biggest challenge. I still don’t like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but it’s a daily struggle. Living “fake it till I make it”… Faking my “identity”. My hope is that some 🏋️♀️version eventually becomes a healthy habit. I’m working on a minimum of 10-minute “🏋🏼♀️snacks” 2-3x per day, 5x per round. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that 🏋🏼♀️is the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus “stretch snacks”… I want to up this game… I added ⏱️“sprints” (which is NOW only fast jogging… 😂) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2” vertical jump) 😂. I read to “sprint” is vital as we age…..
5. I have much “work” to do with family relationships. Won’t detail here, but it’s a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I won’t be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. I’m usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I can’t stay up later…. I love getting up early. I’m good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-being…
7. Have fun… lighten up … & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!
👇🏻Review since my 1st R231 7/31/23 NSVs/Journey Reflections
******************Previous Daily
1. ✅HSF: Avg. close to 9k steps per day for 12+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - #HSF 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅#HSF: 🙆♀️ Daily stretch greatly improving my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅ #HSF 📝 🙏 everyday
4. ✅#HSF: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
5. ✅#HSF : Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
6. ✅#HSF : zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 110-125g Protein
8. ✅#HSF Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
9. ✅#HSF 💦70-80oz daily
10. ✅#HSF Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
11. 💤 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
Rotating 115g to 125g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 128- 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !

ROUND 278
11/12 – 136.9 Morning swim, dinner: healthy marinara and ww pasta
11/13 – 136.0 Noon Body Pump, dinner: Salmon and veggies
11/14 – 135.8 Morning swim, dinner: fajitas at Mexican restaurant
11/15 – 136.6 Noon trainer session, dinner plan: leftover healthy marinara & ww pasta
I received a late afternoon text to join DD and DGS for dinner at the Mexican restaurant. I’d just finished my work projects and clicked submit - yay. Naturally, I abandoned my carefully mapped-out food log and split chicken fajitas with them. I figure it’s a good choice for Mexican – chicken, veggies, and whole gain corn tortillas. Still, restaurants add excessive oil and salt to everything. I had a few chips, too. It was enjoyable and yummy. But, of course, it shows up on the scale the next morning. I must remember that one unsanctioned meal is a blip, two unsanctioned meals make a trend. Here's to a healthy Friday!

11/13 -191.6- (Trend weight -191.4-)
11/14 -192.0- (Trend weight -191.5-) I started my day off yesterday with a youtube exercise video which I hadn’t done in a hot minute. My pre-logged meals went perfectly but I’m not gonna lie. I was pretty pis*ed off when I had to count out 5 crackers for my soup instead of just grabbing a large stack. I think when I grabbed six and had to put one back it really got to me. I wish I’d grabbed 4 instead and had been able to add one to make the 5 My whole evening probably would have went differently. After such excellent obedience during the day, I went crazy for snacks last night. Part sugar cravings and part rebellion. Next time I’m keeping the 6th cracker as it may save me 600 calories and 50 carbs later at night. Yea, I think I’m still in a funk.
11/15 -191.2- (Trend weight -191.4-) I pulled myself up out of my bad mood and stopped feeling sorry for myself yesterday finally. I made a nice low carb meatloaf that I can eat on for a couple of days. I love meatloaf sandwiches for lunch and will use low carb healthy bread for it. It’s opening day for deer hunting so the schools are all closed. My DGS will be home all day and keeps me on my toes! That should burn a few extra calories. DD wants to make a pork roast for dinner in her new crock pot she brought with her to try out. I will plan that in my pre-log and make it work. Have a great weekend everyone!

Hi, I'm Charissa, back for another round. I will keep coming back and I will get this thing right, sooner or later.
Thank you, QuiltingJaine, for keeping us focused in 2024!
Round 277 - I forgot about my birthday which apparently led to not the best choices or I had really high hopes.
At any rate, Round 278 looks promising. No birthday or holidays or planned events, well there's one on the 20th but If I can tow the line until then....
Still missing that drive to stay the course....Maybe I can get some "head" work into today and get back there...!
So here we go November 2024... my motto(s) - All the things I need to read daily!!!
🏋🏾♀️ Don't think, just do it!!
Eat well 🥗to Live Well 🚢✈️🧳
H2O - Make it Flow 💦💦💦
Lose weight in the kitchen ⚖️, get fit in the gym🏋🏾♀️
Note to Self: Alcohol kills weight loss as the focus is burning alcohol calories and not fat calories!
Goals this round:

11/12 224.6 ~ I found my wireless Renpho scale! Yippee! But...it's not syncing very well. Considering going back to my Withings scale or exploring some others.
11/13 225.5 ~ New scale. Right after yesterday's post, I started bouncing on the internet comparing scales. There have been some upgrades to the Withings scale, and I chose the Body Comp one (same-day delivery from Amazon). It will be better after at least a week of data, but it has merged all my recent data from Apple Health. I canceled a few other "fitness" and monitoring subscriptions that I had (First Phorm, Sleepwatch, Wellatory) and rolled that $$ into the withings + program as it seems to address all except tracking. I just recently moved to Cronometer for tracking.
11/14 DNW
11/15 225.6 ~ Maybe I don't like the new scale. I had pasta last night sooo..

11/13. 156.8 Back on track with food yesterday and so far today. Will be working on drinking more water this round.
11/14 156.6 Filling up my water bottles this morning. Working on quilting today. It's going to rain all day and I don't have to leave at 1:30 to get DGD, so I have lots of time. Need to finish a couple projects before Thanksgiving, so I'll have to take some indoor exercise breaks as I sew today.
11/15 157.6 I have no idea where this came from! Hopefully it goes away tomorrow.

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE
Got permission to modify the challenge for fasting and physical activity. Thanks! @quiltingjaine
STARTING FAST TIME: 7:02PM EST (started at 5:50PM EST, but didn't start fasting timer until 7:02)
FASTING GOAL: 72H, Then 20:3
ACTIVITY GOAL: 5-minute core workout, 1 hour workout for 8 days
CAUTION FOR FASTING: I live a zero to minuscule carb life that helps with fasting. Taking in healthy-high calorie-nutrient dense meals and being well hydrated before a fast is important⚠️RND 278 (1)11/16
11/12 CORE✅ WORKOUT 1/8✅ Maintain 72 hour fast ✅
11/13 CORE✅ WORKOUT 2/8✅ Maintain 72 hour fast ✅ - Felt some hunger for a very short time while studying, then it went away. Was able to study efficiently and with mind clarity. Consumed nothing but water yesterday (forgot to make notes yesterday). Today I had some tea with lemon juice. There are studies showing that lemon juice doesn’t break a fast why I add it to tea. It's good for vitamin C and masks the flavor of some herbal teas. If anyone is wondering the hunger went away before I had tea
I drink tea regularly for health benefits. I try to drink it daily and missed yesterday.
11/14 CORE✅ WORKOUT 3/8✅ Completed 72 hour fast 🙌 - AM, drank tea with no lemon. Broke fast after 550PM with high fat meal and protein. This fast went well going to do a 42H Fast instead of 20:3* (Typo in last post). Thanks @quiltingjaine, this challenge is really helping
11/15 CORE✅ WORKOUT 1/8✅ Maintain 42 hour fast ✅ - No hunger. Tea with no lemon.

Fell off the challenge bandwagon in round 256, managed to keep losing weight until June 12th when I hit 155.9 (70.7 kg). I fell off the weight loss wagon shortly after. Decided yesterday to start back up and it was perfect timing with a new round starting today.
11/12- 166 (75.3 kg) Stayed within my goals today. Off to a good start.
11/13- 163.8 (74.3 kg) Water weight whoosh. If I end the round at this weight or close to it, I will be quite pleased.
11/14-162.8 (73.8 kg) Okay, we'll see how turkey tacos I had for dinner tonight affect this tomorrow. And debating BLTs for dinner tomorrow.
11/15- 163.2 (74 kg) I typically don't feel bloated in my day to day, but today I do. My pants feel tight, my bra is bothering me. And I did make BLTs tonight. Curious to see if I'll see more of a jump up on the scale in the next couple days or what. But so far 5 days of staying on track with my goals. I do think I need to drink more water, so I'm going to be mindful of that.

I joined this group in Rnd 245 on Dec 18 2023, when I realized I was eating my way through the holidays; I finally got on the scale and was hovering just under 150 lbs. It took about 4 months to reach my goal weight of 125. Sounds great, but I’ve done this before, which is why I’m still here.
It’s not just about losing, it’s about changing the habits of a lifetime that keep me stuck in self-defeating cycles with food.

It went how you would imagine it went. Both my battle with the granola and Tyson. We both lost, but I think he got paid more.
I’m going to keep pushing through today. We have big salad planned for dinner. I just need to keep my paws off the snack crackers DH insists on bringing home. For him to not snack is to suffer. How could I want him to suffer!!!!!

A day of meetings and errands yesterday. My mom’s birthday is coming up, and my dad is in a nursing home. He asked me to arrange a special lunch (private meeting room) at his facility for mom and get a card for him to give to her. Happening next week. My DB and his wife also invited.

Not sure why I have been hovering around 224. I have been naughty, but not that naughty. Must be kidding myself with faulty logging. (which means I HAVE been that naughty)
I should get out and walk today.

About Me & R278 Commitments:
********************************F66, 5’6” married, MawMaw Proud. Clean P:E (ProteinG> (Cg+Fg) A clean/whole food WOE- (🚫processed foods). Track macros, all fitness and NSVs. I’ve had an unhealthy relationship with food my entire life.
HW 172lbs in 2010. Lost 30lbs in 2014 to 128lbs. Crazy🎢 for 10years. Joined JGMTD R231 7/31/23. Lost 15lbs 8/1 -11/23. Said goodbye FOREVER to the 🎢! I’ve named my maintenance journey “#HSF” & “Healthy Strong Fit” on my way to
📣#bestshapeofmylife
👇🏻Nov Level Up (Down) Plan
***************************
I pledge to prioritize each of these #HSF choices EVERY DAY of Nov:
1. P:E: Protein g greater than 1:1 vs. Energy g. [Pg > (Cg+Fg)] (and cals = avg. maintenance).I will continue this nutrition plan. It is supposed to support muscle gain with fat loss while 🏋🏼♀️🤸🏼♀️ ⏱️🎾. I will continue to track NSVs/macros/ activities, etc. to learn about my body.
2. 🙏📝📚🧐 - I will continue to pray, journal, research. This is my aspect of “leveling up” because I am nothing without my relationship w/Jesus Christ. I’ve also grown into loving/enjoying learning about my body & healthy aging. Replacing BAD habits w/ GOOD habits is a journey in itself. This practice helps me stay present /mindful of many decisions/ thoughts/ actions that impact not only nutrition, but improves self-talk & interactions w/others.
3. 🏋🏼♀️this is my biggest challenge. I still don’t like it. Not one bit. I have some days that it clicks, but it’s a daily struggle. Living “fake it till I make it”… Faking my “identity”. My hope is that some 🏋️♀️version eventually becomes a healthy habit. I’m working on a minimum of 10-minute “🏋🏼♀️snacks” 2-3x per day, 5x per round. Gosh, how I wish someone, ANYONE would have told me in my earlier years that 🏋🏼♀️is the key to fat-loss / maintaining - NOT cardio. I was brainwashed.
4. Healthy Aging - includes mobility, flexibility, balance and agility. While I do stretch every morning plus “stretch snacks”… I want to up this game… I added ⏱️“sprints” (which is NOW only fast jogging… 😂) and plyometrics (celebrating a 2” vertical jump) 😂. I read to “sprint” is vital as we age…..
5. I have much “work” to do with family relationships. Won’t detail here, but it’s a challenge & my overall health will not flourish without this being acknowledged and improved. Mind, body & spirit are connected. I won’t be fully content until I reconcile this part of my life.
6. Sleep- This is a big one. I’m usually fast asleep by 8:30-9PM. I can’t stay up later…. I love getting up early. I’m good with a 5AM wake up but I want to sleep soundly through the night. Will continue to prioritize this key component to health and well-being…
7. Have fun… lighten up … & give myself permission to be spontaneous. (This is THE HARDEST)!!!!
👇🏻Review since my 1st R231 7/31/23 NSVs/Journey Reflections
******************Previous Daily
1. ✅HSF: Avg. close to 9k steps per day for 12+ mos. Not bad. It’s no longer a “daily goal” because it’s now a daily healthy habit - #HSF 👏🏻🤩
2. ✅#HSF: 🙆♀️ Daily stretch greatly improving my attitude & confidence.
3. ✅ #HSF 📝 🙏 everyday
4. ✅#HSF: I play 🎾about 4-5x per week.
5. ✅#HSF : Z2 💕avg 60 min/day
6. ✅#HSF : zero to 15g of net carbs/ day
7. ✅Clean P:E 110-125g Protein
8. ✅#HSF Naturally IF 18/6. Eating window=noon to 6PM. (At least 5 days/wk)
9. ✅#HSF 💦70-80oz daily
10. ✅#HSF Alcohol limited to rare occasions.
11. 💤 7 to 8 hours sleep per night is a goal. Sleep is still inconsistent the last few rounds…
Staying in the present moment is key to mental health and healthy choices.
Rotating 115g to 125g of protein per day is now a non-negotiable. In my dreams, I want to be 128- 130lbs #HSF … 😎 I want to be Healthy, Strong & Fit to live out “Chapter 3” enjoying a full range of mobility, flexibility & activities… !

Still sedentary. Present & hopeful. Tried updating R278 goals, but I just don’t know how to “finalize” at this juncture. Holding steady. I’ve decided to hold off on my “Inbody” scan until I have a couple of weeks of movement under my belt, so it could be a month or so.

Didn’t leave the house yesterday. Rain. 📚all day -and foot is making slow progress. Staying positive. I can only do what I can do… My current BHAG is treading water (staying afloat) and smiling. Guiding my thoughts and “self-talk” is key. Will hit 🥩 and 🏋️♀️goals today. I want more. I’ll define what “more” is today.

Ran errands yesterday and my foot was OK! It’s really easy to miss protein goals when I’m not focused. Planning a long walk today to assess the foot. Back on protein, too and WILL implement my routine goals for the remainder of this round. (But no plyo!) Sure hope I’m back baby!

Let’s address the scale & my “Level Up (down) Plan” ☝🏻
I went back and reviewed last year around Nov-Dec and I definitely averaged 129-130 for two solid months. This is where I want to live!
Last year, I was not lifting as much as I am now but I really want to be “ranging” at 128-130…. NOT 132.0! Am I obsessing over 2-3 little pounds? You betcha. It’s definitely psychological, and I choose to embrace that… And it’s a SERIOUS test if I can do it. I want to live there. It’s actually my personal BHAG because I’ve NEVER EVER been there (for more than two months). I’m choosing more discipline. Why do I allow myself to simply touch my goal, be thrilled, only to float back up?! I’ve actually been feeling “less than” because I’m just hovering (but not reaching) a previously declared goal. It’s negative, really. Hovering, but not reaching, is not a good place to be no matter how I look at it. It’s hard to describe. I’m not being hard on myself… This is who I am.
So… Let’s DO THIS! Over the last 10 years (my 🎢) I have always lost 10 to 15lbs during the holidays … I can’t imagine (now) a “reasonable” or “permissive” holiday season. So let’s play it safe.
📣BHAG declared: My FIRST BHAG is to hit 128lbs on this #HSF journey and maintain a “+ or -“ 2lb range. Basically lose 4lbs by 1/1/24 which, at my age and metabolic quirks, will be really, really hard to do, if even possible.
128lbs & 📣#bestshapeofmylife — It’s why I’m here on this challenge. I’ve been blowing thru JGMTD each round STAGNANT - a sort of LIMBO. I’ve been declaring this for four months without any REAL results. It’s time. I hit my zone at my last “InBody” June 28 and have allowed myself excuses ever since. It’s time to get real again, stay TRUE to my original goals and stay THERE.
“5AM Carolyn” is called to action!
Today, I will review & finalize my “plan” and get going. LETS GO!

This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

I don’t remember who said what in round 276 but something in my brain clicked. I am getting back to my old routine of longer daily fasts - at least 18 hours which includes sleep time.

11/12 133.5 Belated THANK YOU to ALL VETERANS!
11/13 133.0 Last night was the 3rd night of adding 1T coconut oil to evening coffee, also had adult beverage in the late afternoon. Bingo tonight.
11/14 134.5 Probably because of pizza - unable to eat just toppings which were all meat and maybe some cheese and only 1 slice but did have ice cream sandwich. And no TMI
11/15 134.0 We went out for breakfast/lunch. Steak and eggs.
11/16 134.5 Had a slight migraine for several days which may finally be over but has been replaced with a throbbing headache caused by DH having NO RECOLLECTION of convo concerning the community Thanksgiving SUGAR LOADED dinner which I said I did NOT want to attend and to which he immediately bought tickets! I might as well be talking to the wall.7 -

11/16 - 157.2 - I behaved myself well yesterday and it shows. I got all my errands done and did my FD training as planned so this weekend is just to relax, meal prep, and help BF with his homework since there's a LOT to do and it's due by tomorrow night. Whew. Focusing on water since I'm a tad behind but not too awful much, thankfully. Steps are on track for a Saturday - I'll need to be sure I get up and move around more today to make up for the late start but it's definitely manageable to reach goal. Dinner planned and logged but I need to choose a meal either today or tomorrow to not log/eat intuitively. I'm inclined to make that lunch today.All will be well

Previous Day's Comments11/12 - Between eating out last night and being bloated from that and TOM arriving any day, I'm not surprised. I feel extra bloated so I know at least some of this is false weight. I'm back on track today with logging everything and I'm well on my way to meeting all my macro goals. I'm short on steps but I can easily make that up after work. Water is a tiny bit behind but nothing I can't make up, either. Gym was good despite the migraine I woke up with and the later-than-usual night (about an hour later to bed than normal). I feel good about progress though with TOM this week the scale may not show the progress. That's okay. I trust the process
11/13 - Ah, that's better! I behaved last night at the meeting and only had 2 drinks which I logged (vodka + soda with a lime wedge) and kept within my macros. Otherwise, I focused on water and was able to hit my water goal with no issue. Unfortunately the meeting ran long and we didn't get home until past 10pm (well past my bedtime of 8!) and I realized as I crawled in bed I was about 600 steps shy of goal. That's okay, though. My average across the week will be okay due to my 5k Monday so long as I maintain the goal the remainder of the week. Hopefully tonight is a quieter night in - I can't do another late night like that and be functioning. Meals/snacks planned out for today within goals so feeling confident I can manage!
11/14 - I splurged with some ice cream last night. I was very stressed and indulged my emotions. I did go over my macros but I'm not too worried about it. One day won't absolutely destroy my progress. I tried to include more volume foods in my meal plan for today when I built it to make sure I wasn't hungry which was part of my problem yesterday, too. Unfortunately yesterday my shoulder kind of bothered me on bench press but I didn't think anything of it. Today, however, it's gotten worse so I think I'll need to step back with it. Looking at the various types of pain and anatomy, it seems like it's more of a bursitis than a tear. I could be wrong, but the pain is in a very specific spot and lifting my arm above my head triggers it more which is a strong indicator of bursitis. Tomorrow is leg day at the gym so I can still get a good workout in without worrying about worsening it. I'm hoping its something silly like I slept on it wrong (which has happened before and what I assumed was the issue yesterday).

11/14 -192.0- (Trend weight -191.5-)
11/15 -191.2- (Trend weight -191.4-) I pulled myself up out of my bad mood and stopped feeling sorry for myself yesterday finally. I made a nice low carb meatloaf that I can eat on for a couple of days. I love meatloaf sandwiches for lunch and will use low carb healthy bread for it. It’s opening day for deer hunting so the schools are all closed. My DGS will be home all day and keeps me on my toes! That should burn a few extra calories. DD wants to make a pork roast for dinner in her new crock pot she brought with her to try out. I will plan that in my pre-log and make it work. Have a great weekend everyone!
11/16 -190.4- (Trend weight-191.3-) I ate very light for lunch and dinner yesterday so I could have ice cream with DD, DS and DGS last night. I didn’t want or need to feel denied. I must admit that ice cream is a weak point for me. The only thing more tempting is probably donuts (which I haven’t had in quite some time). I took too much in a bowl out of “old me” habits and realized that “new me” doesn’t really eat that much at one time anymore. But I didn’t realize it until I was finished and my belly felt over full and bloated. So I’m surprised to see a drop this morning, even with lighter meals. I weighed in about 2 hours later than normal this morning so I’m not sure if that is why I’m having a drop. I guess I’ll find out tomorrow. I just hope the ice cream doesn’t show up later, which sometimes happens. Lots of good sleep last night but not enough water yesterday which is probably why I wasn’t up & down all night like usual. Whoever said “you can’t have it all” was absolutely right!

👍👍This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE
Got permission to modify the challenge for fasting and physical activity. Thanks! @quiltingjaine
STARTING FAST TIME: 7:02PM EST (started at 5:50PM EST, but didn't start fasting timer until 7:02)
FASTING GOAL: 72H, Then 20:3
ACTIVITY GOAL: 5-minute core workout, 1 hour workout for 8 days
CAUTION FOR FASTING: I live a zero to minuscule carb life that helps with fasting. Taking in healthy-high calorie-nutrient dense meals and being well hydrated before a fast is important⚠️RND 278 (1)11/17
11/12 CORE✅ WORKOUT 1/8✅ Maintain 72 hour fast ✅
11/13 CORE✅ WORKOUT 2/8✅ Maintain 72 hour fast ✅ - Felt some hunger for a very short time while studying, then it went away. Was able to study efficiently and with mind clarity. Consumed nothing but water yesterday (forgot to make notes yesterday). Today I had some tea with lemon juice. There are studies showing that lemon juice doesn’t break a fast why I add it to tea. It's good for vitamin C and masks the flavor of some herbal teas. If anyone is wondering the hunger went away before I had tea I drink tea regularly for health benefits. I try to drink it daily and missed yesterday.
11/14 CORE✅ WORKOUT 3/8✅ Completed 72 hour fast 🙌 - AM, drank tea with no lemon. Broke fast after 550PM with high fat meal and protein. This fast went well going to do a 42H Fast instead of 20:3* (Typo in last post). Thanks @quiltingjaine, this challenge is really helping
11/15 CORE✅ WORKOUT 4/8*(Typo in last post)✅ Maintain 42 hour fast ✅ - No hunger. Tea with no lemon.
11/16 Completed 42 hour fast🙌 - Today is rest day for working out👟 AM, drank tea with lemon🍵 Broke fast with fat🧈 and protein🥩 Next fasting goal is 46 hours⏳
