    Good morning team 🤗

    I was just thinking about my mini goal for this month which was to lose 7lbs. I’ve lost 6lbs so far this month and I feel like moving the goal posts a bit. My new mini goal is to have lost at least 10lbs by the end of April. I like to challenge myself and if I just keep doing what I’m doing, I know it’s attainable 💪 Let’s see if I can shift these 4lbs in 13 days 😊

    @o0kody0o It's a good feeling when you blow past your original goal and have to adjust it, great job!!

    I did the same ifit treadmill workout today that I did yesterday except I didn't allow it to incline this time. I might do a partial incline the next time. I can't believe they call that an easy beginners workout....no way.

    @CindyJNC1963 It's always hard at first, you'll be surprised at how quickly you'll adapt!! Great job for finishing your workouts!!

    Finding it hard to curb my cravings. Expecting TOM soon so I hope that this is why. Still a struggle for me.

    @vicky2767 I am in your same boat right now, the cravings are strong, I'm days away from my visitor and not thrilled about that, holding water, feeling super hungry....yep, I understand, hang in there....

    Hit my steps goal again today😃: 22,424 / 11.58 miles

    Haddock for dinner; this is a pict of my sons plate---I didn't eat the sides shown, (twice baked bacon-cheddar potato, broccoli & riced cauliflower) just the fish . Stonewall Kitchen Habanero Mango Aioli is really good on haddock--and easy to bake (25 minutes).

    Hey fellow spinners! When I first started - yeah it was kinda sore.. but it goes away. I don’t use a cushion anymore.

    Tip - don’t stay in position 1 that long. (Seated)
    You can save your bum by alternating between position 2 and 3 - here is a cool article that explains the positions...(which you may already know) but I thought it was an interesting article.

    Daily check in: 4/17

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: Yes. Got in over 2 mile walk at the soccer field while my son had practice.

    NSV1: Bags and bags of Easter candy surrounded me today, didn’t have any.

    NSV2: Pulled out some shorts from about 10 years ago, pre kids. Hardly worn, I grew out of them too quickly. 4 out of the 5 fit! Won’t need to buy much this summer! Glad for that since I’m hoping to be in different sizes by next summer.

    Did you find the cushion helped? I haven’t tried it out yet but will do in a bit. I felt bruised after using the bike, so let’s hope this cushioned seat cover does the trick!

    Thank you, I needed this! I’m going to apply some of these tips to my workout tonight and hopefully it’ll be much more comfortable. If I’m honest, I had absolutely no idea about posture when spinning, I just went for it. So this will definitely come in handy. Thanks again 😁
