    Yesterday was a total bust. I didn't feel well and stayed in my pjs all day.
    Coconut oil no
    Vitamins no
    30 min activity no
    Planks no
    And not enough water either. Hope I do better today.

    Had a good first week. These threads are great for keeping me focused. The main goal is still a long way away, so it's good to hit these midi goals :)

    Day 5 went well for me. I did my morning and evening Kettlebell workouts. I walked 3 miles. I stayed under 30 g of carbs. I drank my water. I even loss .4 lbs for a total of.8 lbs for the week which is a pound less than my goal for the week but at least it is going in the right direction!

    Sorry I'm late to the party....I didn't wanted to be tempted by appatizers.

    1) rein in the wheat sugar issue I currently have going on...no more!
    this is a work in progress today will be day 1
    2) 300 intensity minutes min a week.
    I rocked the exercise over 500 intensity minutes this week. 3 hikes this weekend and 68 glints of stairs in 3 days...check
    3) the return of the killer hike Friday's...weather is irrelevant
    check
    4)take my work day walks back to off trail hikes. Walk all breaks
    working on

    5) more variety in foods to not get bored

    @fanncy0626 collagen is just one of my personal goals. I think a few other people use it too. It's supposed to help with skin, hair, and joints. I've only consistently taken it around a month so I can't say for sure how well it works yet other than some slight joint improvement.

    3/3: Weight is fine. Carbs were good. No exercise due to strep. I did take my collagen.

    3/4: Weight/carbs ok. No exercise other than grocery shopping. Forgot collagen.

    3/5: Weight/carbs good. I chased a 3 year old around the playground for about an hour so I counted it as a slow walk. Also did some dishes and laundry trying to catch up from sick week. Collagen was taken!

    @anglyn1 thanks for the information on collagen. I had no idea that it helped with joint pain and inflammation. That might be something I might want to give a try.

    Pms.
    I'll eat keto, deal? :|

    I am in the same boat, stay strong girl!
    It resulted in me being less than a champion this first week into March. Between being super hungry and crampy, I twisted my knee...so I have yet to perform my squat challenge. I will be starting today instead...just did 10 in my office at work :)

    Another thing I have to be aware of is the side effects of drinking...I had dinner/cocktails with friends on Saturday. Everything I ate was low carb...but I ate EVERYTHING. Like 3000 calories & 70g of carbs. I let it go and started fresh the next day, but there's got to be a way I can have a couple cocktails a couple times a month and not become a ravenous monster, right?
