My goal for February is to lower my carb intake and up the protein - i love that I got on here and see the talk about how we need to eat a diet high in protein. Besides nuts, what are your go to high protein/low carb snacks?0

I’ve been trying to work on upping my protein as well. Some days are better than others but I have noticed a difference in my hunger.
I have protein shakes, bars, nuts and cheese sticks on me all the time. Doesn’t mean I eat them but they’re there 😂😂4 -

Happy Monday Ladies, Let's have a Fantabulous week!!!!!4 -
I don’t have an Apple Watch, just an iPhone. I use a Fitbit for tracking steps; is that similar? It has a ring on the app to close to meet your daily goals.
Yes, it’s a goal thing. There are 3 rings one is “Move” which logs your activity calories. One is exercise minutes. And the third ring is “Stand” and encourages you to stand for one minute every hour.

Sometimes just the walking I do around work all day gets me 2/3 I the way there or so. Have you tried searching your problem on the apple tech support boards?
I tried the HIIT exercise on the watch. I exercised for 30 minutes and it only recorded 11 on the ring. I can choose “other” and it just straight logs the minutes. I looked at the boards and it tells you to recalibrate. It seems like a pain in the butt. I will keep an eye on it and maybe try to compare my HR monitor to my watch to see how ofc it is during a workout.

Another week has passed where I fell off the wagon and now January is over. I need to take control! I found a groupon for 69-day free trial of daily burn so I’m going to give that a try. My goals for this week:
Log every meal and stay within budget
7000 steps/day
3 workouts this week
Post everyday
One day at a time ... I can do this!8 -

Hi, soon to turn 45. Started packing it on around the time my daughter was 6 months and husband lost his job. When things picked back up with my own business, hubby working etc. life got so hectic I fell into a habit of grabbing quick food on the run. My health has now become a huge issue and it’s time I did something real about it. I’m starting back on the 5:2 as it’s worked before, but last time I stopped due to emotional eating issues. I’m in a much stronger mental place now. I think I need to lose around 20-25 kg. Wish me luck 😊7

Happy Tuesday Lovely Ladies, not get out there and kick some booty today!2 -
I know what you mean @shortyjmorgan1! My oldest is 23. But for some reason I have an easier time wrapping my head around him being 23 than the fact that he will be 24 shortly. 24 just seems so old! Mid-twenties!1

Yesterday was great! I logged every bite and maintained a calorie deficit, worked out, drank 80oz of water. I still don’t think my watch is recording my exercise minutes correctly so I am going to recalibrate it today.
I weighed in today and I am happy to report a 1.2 lb loss since my last weigh in on 1/22. I expected to gain or stay the same so I am happy about that!
One more goal this week is bring my breakfast and lunch everyday. I tend to make bad decisions if I buy food in the cafeteria not to mention, I am spending about $10/ day on breakfast, lunch and coffee.7 -
Wrapped up a Tuesday night at the gym! I am certainly glad to have a place to make my new hobby other than my couch! It’s really easy to fall into that rut and I want out of it!
May Wednesday be good to you!5
