Beautiful weather light winds. Another great day flying.
Was an actual race day today. Flew fine once I sorted out the video problems (hard to fly what you cannot see where you are going). The video problems cost me A LOT of time and places in the first 2 heats of the day so I did not make the semi-finals, but my goal was to fly as I knew I could and I did that in the final 2 heats. Also managed to navigate the dive gate a number of times (which has is my hardest obstacle - effectively fly through a small gap, at the ground and miss at the last second).
LOTS of walking setting up and packing up the track.
Daily Strength challenge
Challenge for April 29 is sit-ups or crunches (abs day - be sure to use a mat or towel for cushioning - )
2 sets- First set till the point where you can do no more, wait 2 mins
- Second set of 50% of the number you did in the first set (half)
The reason for only 2 sets for this exercise is that it ideally should be balanced with back strengthening exercises (which plank variants provide).

With the vanilla discussions issue, I had forgotten about this page. Good thing I checked my calendar! I have a browser bookmark, now, but that doesn't help from my phone0

A very bizarre weekend led to an unplanned experiment in 24 hour fasting. However, I am ready for the adrenaline to subside so that I can get some sleep.0 -
Need to get in the habit of posting on here daily. Anyway, week 1 weight loss 0.5kg.0

Work day today. Still managed to get out walk.
Daily Strength challenge
Challenge for April 30 is door frame rows ()
3 sets- First set till the point where you can do no more, wait 2 mins
- Second set of 50% of the number you did in the first set (half)
- Third set
The reason for this exercise is push ups and dips work primarily the triceps (pushing). This exercise balances the others by working the biceps (pulling).

As we have a lot of new members, I'll start with a daily question that a few may already know the answer to.
When you lose weight, where does the weight go?
I'll include a reference tomorrow that will explain the full answer, but interested to know what people think.0 -

May week 1
Last week: 177.4
Today: 177.4
I didn't do too much different this week, if anything I was more active than usual, but I lost 8.6 lbs combined in the past 3 weeks which exceeds my calorie deficit, so I'm assuming it's all evening out. I can't complain!1 -
Having trouble savings the thread, MFP I need vanilla to have permission to ⭐️1

Home all day by myself with my rascals, who were especially rascally (i.e. new bottle of nail polish ended up all over bathroom floor, walls, counter, cabinets... then tracked outside the bathroom onto the carpet in the hall. Imagine little coral-colored footprints scurrying away from the scene of the crime).
Held it together somehow, and even managed to get the workout in. I think I didn't eat enough calories though, so I was super hungry at bedtime2 -
May Week 1
Last week: 212.2
This week: 208.7
Difference of 3.5 lbs. I'm really skeptical of today's weight. I bet I'm going to see a bounce back today and tomorrow, but who knows. Stay the course!3 -
Username: concordancia
Day: Monday
Week: 1
Previous: 197.5
Current: 194.5
I was a bit disappointed given how bloated I was last week, but the two weeks still average out to 2lbs/week, so I was being unrealistic. That pretty much sums up my overall mental state over the past week.3 -
Hi I'm Val and I live in the lake district, England. I am married with 2 children in their twenties, and 2 dogs. I am getting back into exercise after Achilles problems and am getting to love just being out in the fresh air, walking again. This is my third month of doing this and am finding it an excellent motivator.1

Could you make sure my weigh-in day was changed, and saved, to Saturday? It did say Saturday from when I originally requested the change, but it is currently back to Wednesday. Thanks!

So, good news: I found my wedding dress on Saturday! It was a size or two too small but close enough for me to know how it will look and fall in love with it. Today I get a call from the bridal shop, full of abject apologies as for whatever reason the dress is no longer in production and they weren't told so they could take it off the floor. I'm delighted - it's saved me over £200 by buying the sample instead (and they'll get it cleaned and pressed for me FoC) and it's one hell of a motivator to hit my goal weight! I knew that one was my dress6
