Yes, I am in for this!
Goals:
*Get to the gym at least 3 times a week
*No cheats, Keto daily
*celebrate my birthday by being fully keto and happy with it
*by Feb 28th I want to be down an additional 7-10 lbs which i feel is absolutely doable5 -
* Logging and running at least 5 days/week.
I will need to create a better running schedule, but this works with all the awkward snow and ice hanging around.1 -
I started my fitness challenge a day early (1/31), so have two days under my belt. Set up this schedule:
Week One and Two: Bodyweight only 50 squats/day minimum; 50 push-ups on knees/day minimum
Have done: Tues 100 squats, (30 w/ 20 lb dumbbell); 50 knee push-ups; Wed 110 bodyweight squats (plus 30 each side split squats) and 50 knee push-ups; plus have done extra exercises with those two each day.
After the first two weeks, which are to establish baseline, I'm increasing intensity by a bit each week either by adding weights or by doing push-ups on the toes (and culminates in decline push-ups and clapping push-ups at the end of 13 weeks). I was inspired by a video that went viral that showed a gal who did push-ups every day for 100 days.4 -
Walk 80 miles in February, 3.5 mph or greater.
2/1 5.0 miles, 3.55mph
2/2 4.6 miles, 3.53mph. 11.23 pounds of groceries in my back pack on the way home.7 -
2/2: carbs in range despite a little gelato. Weight in range. Rest day as I was traveling 4 hours to and from an appointment for my husband. Collagen taken. As for the household chore just taking out the trash.3

So far so good. I am adding in another aim, no milk or cream in my tea and coffee. Hoping this will help get some weight off and keep my blood glucose levels down (diabetic)2

Hero 90 Week 4 Day 3 yesterday. Plus another hilly walk.
Everything is on point. But today is Friday. And tomorrow is Saturday. The reigns need to be held tightly.

I had a decent second day. Although I didn't weigh my almonds. Smh. I know better, right?
Working out is going well, as is being consistent with calories.
I had a super stressful day yesterday. Very scary. So this morning I feel hungover from the emotional strain. I even dug out an old battery so I could weigh myself (SMH) but nope, didn't work!
My goal for this day is to walk half an hour, do a nice 12 minute hiit workout and WEIGH EVERY THING.
Other than the almond deal, and the attempt at weighing, I haven't F'ed Up. Does the almond thing mean I *kitten* up? Yeah probably.
Guys, I was so close to eating carbs yesterday. It was such a hard day. I can't go into specifics, but my God, I was scared shirtless all day long. I'm going to consider it a win.
I watched Fed Up again. I'm having the library hold The Case Against Sugar for me.
Okay. Today is a new day.
-weigh all food
-be nice to myself
-do NOT get a new battery
-exercise for stress, not weight loss2 -
Ending the week on a positive note. I'm in the chicken zone and it seems to be working.
Had a lemon pepper chicken breast this morning with a splash of Franks, sauteed mushrooms and onions. I usually don't eat bfast, but I had an early dinner last night (Buffalo Chicken Breast) and I wanted to avoid all the carb treats here at work. Chicken Alfredo tonight for dinner. Steaks planned for Saturday. Now - Need to plan for Sunday Superbowl. Bunless burgers and dogs maybe?..Go Pats! 3 -
I am in! This is a great idea, and my main goal is to lose 12 pounds this month, I lost 12 pounds in January and want to keep going. I will be also adding in mini-goals:
* exercising at least 4 days each week
* weighing all food when at home
* eating one salad everyday
* stay on track during the weekends (most important)
Have a great day everyone!2 -

I was le exhausted all day and depressed, but I powered through that crap anyway.
Yep. The best thing about Feb. F-Ups are that you can fix them with your next good choice.
F the scale. It's lazy and behind anyway.
I think you might benefit from listening to this:

I messed up many times during weight loss and maintenance. The key is to have more non-messed up days than messed up days. Accept the things we cannot change. Change the things we can. Know the difference. It gets better.

I am in. Just got a Fit Bit last weekend. It is still sitting in my guest room. Gonna set it up and learn how to use it.1

Thank you all so much. I honestly couldn't do this without your support and encouragement.
While doing the dishes this morning, every fifth washed and rinsed item I stopped a and did curls, squats, lunges and swings. I'm going to incorporate these types of quick workouts throughout the day. It makes it fun!
Thanks again, myfitnesspals. 3
