So my aim is 184 lbs. I logged all my foods and hit the treadmill for 30 minutes 6 out of 7 days. Sticking with my regime but going to tweek my foods. I gained a pound. Read all the posts and very impressive 👏.

@ScienceofTeaching Do you do any gardening in the spring?

Rainbow2300

@Carrielundgren Be encouraged as I too was dealing with knee and ankle pain and it caused me to stop going to the gym. I had stopped weighing myself and didn’t know I had gained weight. I lost some weight and it has taken the pressure off and now the pain is gone! 🙌😃 I hope this to be true for you too!

Hi All,

Just got back from vacation but I am in this now! My trouble time is from 6-8pm when I am lonely and board. I need to find something else that gives me joy in the evening.

Me too,.. I call it my witching hour LOL. What I do is busy myself with exercise and/or projects around the house.... right now I set aside some time to work on decluttering, wouldn't quite say these activities bring me joy LOLOLOL but they keep me distracted

@Rainbow2300 Yes! I turned most of my grass in the side and back yard into wildflower meadows, and they are messy but beautiful. I also try to grow lots of vegetables, and sometimes the groundhogs let me eat the veggies too. It's a constant battle against the wildlife here, even with a fence. But it is a lot of fun to watch things grow and to get to eat produce from our garden. Still 2 months until I can really start anything, though. Sometimes I have an aerogarden in my classroom during the winter to grow things, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up yet this year.

Happy Friday everyone! I realized this morning that I forgot to post my Wednesday weight, so here goes. I feel like I'm moving at glacier speed, but that's what permanently shapes the landscape, right?

You are all encouraging me with your grit and optimism. This isn't easy and having a community to share the wins and struggles is so wonderful. Reminding myself this is a lifelong commitment and to take it one day at a time.

ScienceofTeaching

@supersparklyk As a science teacher, I LOVE your glacier comparison! I feel like I need to steal that for my classroom when the kids are feeling discouraged by slow progress!

@MaryM6316 I agree with how encouraging it is to be part of a community to share this with! My husband is super encouraging, but he just doesn't get it. Having people here who are doing the same thing that I am is so helpful!

I cursed myself last week when I said that I had my longest stretch of tracking in ages. I fell off the eating wagon on my birthday (not a big deal) but have struggled to get back on track. Other complications were sick kids and now I have shingles.

I had blood work yesterday and had a shock with my cholesterol as it went up significantly from low borderline last year to very high. I started working with a dietitian last fall and did make some changes but still have a weakness for chocolate and baked goods.
