    mini challenge:

    I’ve been tacking and under goal so far for the day. I went to the gym this morning and did 50 min of strength training and 30 min walk on the treadmill. I’m about to head out with the girls. I’m going to try really hard to stay under calories and keep track of what I eat. These events are always the hardest. It’s way easier to put my head in the sand and start again tomorrow.

    4/6: tracked: yes
    Under: nope
    Exercise: yes

    I had snacks and wine last night. I kept track of what I had and logged it all. I felt super guilty this morning, so I jumped on the scale to validate my feelings and I was down a pound. I guess the moral of the story is that every now and again you need a night out, and I should be nicer to myself about it.

    Tomorrow, I travel to Las Vegas and next Sunday, I will be back in our condo in Puerto Vallarta. I will be back on track in my own place next week. Meanwhile, I am making some good decisions.

    I weighed in at 134.1 from 135! I’m hoping the scale will start to move faster after water weight.

    April Week 2
    Previous Weight: 224.2
    Current Weight: 228.6

    I did a spectacular nose dive off the wagon this past week. Too much food and too little physical activity. I have avoided this site altogether because I didn't want to see just how far off track I have gotten. The scale kept track, though :(

    Now, I am feeling motivated all over again. The final push that got me back on track was catching up with a friend of mine whom I haven't seen in a very long time (she moved across the country). I learned that she is on a healthier lifestyle journey, too! Seeing how great she looks and feels reminded me that I like feeling that way too! I am thankful for this reminder. And still a bit gobsmacked that she re-entered my life at just the right time, showing me what I needed to see.

    So here I am, ready to continue pushing forward.

    And thank you, @HASWLRS for being such a great captain.

    Accountability has always been my biggest hurdle in this journey. For accountability purposes, I am going to post my workout schedule here.

    Sun 20min strength training + 15min yoga
    Mon 20min cardio
    Tue 20min strength training + 20min cardio
    Wed 20min yoga
    Thu 20 min strength training + 20min cardio
    Fri rest day
    Sat rest day

    I may move around some of the elements to better fit my week, but it should come out to 3 days of cardio, 3 days of strength training, 2 days of yoga. I don't have any reason why I can't get these done short of falling ill or a serious emergency.

    If you notice me getting off-track, feel free to call me out teammates. I won't be upset by being called out. This is a commitment that I've made to myself and being reminded of that when I'm slacking is not upsetting to me.

    Cheers to a new week and another chance to move closer towards our goals!

    Last week: 231.5
    This week: 228.4

    Sigh...... I’ve been stuck in this low thirties/ high twenties weight for like a month which is fustrating because I’ve been eating right and working out! The first three moths weight was flying off now I’ve been kinda stagnant.

    I did order a food scale, and starting Tuesday, being able to see what I’m actually supposed to be eating will help me with portion sizes. I feel Ike that’s why I’ve been stuck...could be also that my body was used to the workout schedule I had...I do start a new series (gamma focus t25) tomorrow which I hope will kickstart the weight loss...I may have to check macros etc but I’ll be honest that *kitten* is a lot lol! I don’t even know where to start with that not to mention I’m vegan (been vegetarian my whole life).

    Ok there’s my rant I hope I didn’t kill the vibe...I’m going to go take some measurements hopefully I’ve shrunk somewhere!

    Happy Sunday everyone!
