    Happy Monday Team!!

    Today has been a bit of a catch up for me. I have been pretty busy this weekend, which is usually not the case. And car trouble (which shouldn't be happening with a new car) just set me behind. My husband wanted to get some new office furniture and re-do his office area (which is conveniently located next to my home gym) so I did heavy squats yesterday while helping him to put together and move his furniture. I still have to go clean up from that and finish putting everything back together after re-arranging things, you know, moving things around always gets worse before it gets better.

    Trying this morning to get back into normal routine and back to the grind, but it's been tougher these last couple weeks and I'm trying to use March as a period of reset and re-focus so I can get to my goal weight, finally!!!

    Welcome to March, let's crush it!!

    you can do it have a great March

    GOOD MORNING TEAM SLIMSONS!
    WE MADE IT TO DAY 2

    TODAY'S MOTIVATIONAL TIP:
    IMPORTANCE OF DRINKING WATER
    I know this is a repeat but it bears reminding

    3546slqzxd38.jpg

    As you may see keeping your body hydrated is not only good for your fat loss but it's food for your body all around.

    My Challenge to you is to add more water to your daily intake (only if you're not at your maximum)

    Have a blessed day.

    Regards,
    Glorious Gloria

    Daily Post (Sunday)

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes
    Exercise: No

    Sunday is my rest day so I can prep everything with my husband for the work/school week, so I usually don't workout or just take a short walk.

    Hope everyone had a wonderful Sunday!

    Track: Yes
    Calories under goal: Yes
    Exercise: 4600 steps walking

    I was having some stomach issues late in the day so I wasn't able to get in my workout on the bike. I did go shopping early in the day so that helped make up for it.

    I tried kale chips today .....they were so gross...what a waste of money.

    I tried kale tons of different ways and think it’s always absolutely disgusting!!

    Eta: hopefully your stomach is feeling better today

    Hi All!

    I’ve been in the biggest loser challenger since September- I was strongest posting in the fall and then let stress and work get the best of me and Just fell off the wagon. Hoping to jump back in and eat good and feel good again.

    For those i haven’t met yet In the new March challenge- I’m from NYC - I travel often, I’m in love with Africa and photography. I’m a vegetable adventurer - i like trying new foods. I’ve lost 40 ish pounds. I’m about 5’9- I hover in the 140s and my goal weight is 128-132 range. I’ve been straddling the 140s for a while as I go back and forth with keto or not keto and building lean muscle mass and burning leftover fluffy phat. :)

    Ps- I loooove kale and do green shakes everyday - 🥬 lol it’s like brain juice for me.

    Daily stat check in-
    Tracked- yes
    Calories- under
    Exercise- 45 min soulcycle , 5 lb weights - 10min weight session arms.

    Goal - be mindful and practice wellness this week.

    Comments/Goals: Have extreme DOMS from yesterday's gym restart, so rest day needed. I'm experiencing lots of stress and it's triggering my food addiction. Although I have managed to stay under calories, I could not stick to my detox fasting protocol as I'd planned. Came back to hell here basically, after a week in paradise.😖😣

    Question: HOW DO YOU MANAGE STRESS EATING?

    Question: HOW DO YOU MANAGE STRESS EATING?

    Wow - well - this is timely for me. The last few months I’ve experienced almost debilitating stress, as you know. - Cardio helps me, I’ll book a class and then eat pretty good the rest of the day. If I know I have a cardio class booked in the morning - I won’t let myself drink much since I don’t want to lose the 40$ I paid for it..
    It’s kind of like cardio insurance. I also do not let anything in the house that is unhealthy- literally nothing. (Or i will eat it.) If I want it that badly - I have to go out for it- which in the cold doesn’t happen as much.

    💕 Your vacay sounds like it was great! You got this!!

    @mg07030

    Thanks Mary.... that part about not keep the poor food in the house is my down fall. My sons like to eat the snacks I cannot have--and today I dipped into their chips😣--GUILTY AS CHARGED. I need to clean out the pantry ✔️and just make them eat clean with me. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    @CindyJNC1963 You will, hang in there. As you know, weight loss isn't linear, sometimes you lose a lot, sometimes you hang out at a weight for a bit.

    Question: HOW DO YOU MANAGE STRESS EATING?

    @SLIMn2016 I think that might be like the million dollar question right there. Saturday I was super stressed and wanted to eat literally everything, instead I went to the gym after getting groceries, so my suggestion...keep yourself busy, away from food! That's the ONLY way I survive stress eating, and I don't always succeed either.

    It's not so bad when you mix it with a combination of fruit. I love it

    Oh yes this my weakness myself but I found a solution to have my taste for spaghetti without the carbs with replacing spaghetti with vegetables yes its not the same but it quenches the craving for spaghetti and if I am craving ziti I add cheese.
