    Have a great saturday, everyone!

    Cardio and strength: Boxing conditioning class at a UFC gym. Mostly bodyweight exercises and rounds on the bag.

    Assesment: My friend actually invited me along to the class as her guest for the day. Surprisingly, I was one of the more fit people there. I guess this workout routine is working :)

    Last night we had a party at my house, and I was definitely a bit out of control with all the drinks and food and sweets around. But back on top of it today.

    Curry chicken with cauliflower for dinner.

    I see this thread has been going on for quite some time. That’s amazing! I hope you all wouldn’t mind if I joined in? I just started strength training Monday so this would really encourage me to stick with it and maybe get some pointers along the way.

    CARDIO: walked for 33 minutes pushing my 31 pound toddler in her stroller around the neighborhood.

    STRENGTH: rest day

    ASSESSMENT: doing some cleaning around the house today. Excited to continue strength training and see how my body transforms. I had roast, brown rice & gravy, carrots and green beans last night. I’ve meal prepped breakfast and lunch for the next 2 weeks. Breakfast everyday is egg muffins and fruit with black coffee. Lunch is roasted chicken with lots of veggies and either brown rice or sweet potatoes.

    Thanks! I’m a beginner so if you have any suggestions on my workouts I’m posting, feel free to let me know! I have done a lot of research and my husband has been working out off and on since high school (now in his mid 30’s) but we both do not know everything. He’s never had to lose weight like me so it’s a different ballpark for him to suggest everything I should be doing.

    There isn't a perfect workout. There's workouts that are perfect for you. The key for sustainable exercise through life is to do workouts you can do. I've definitely had to trim back the intensity I used to do back in my 40's because recovery time is longer now, yet, still stay in great shape.

    Thanks, this makes me feel a lot better. I feel like what I’m doing is not enough but I wanted to start slow. I used to be very active back in the day so taking it slow is hard for me. I feel like I can still do it all and the fact is I can’t. I know I will make great progress doing what I’m doing. I just need to be patient.
