I haven't had cake or chocolate in 2 months and I plan to have two slices. I'm going to be eating well the whole rest of the weekend, but I definitely plan to blow my calorie count on dessert and hit the gym hard on Monday!
I decided to make a keto carrot cake so I can indulge in a sweet, but my main calories are being reserved for a slice of the Paska bread my Mom and I baked last weekend.

I'm bummed out my gym is closed on Sunday where I use the pool. This week was rough getting back to work after my sugery, and weekend pool time is what I need. I was sooo tired today Friday and on Tuesday that I didn't get to the gym those days, but should have - literally crashed for a 3 hr evening nap. I was in a lot more pain than I thought from the commute, so had a little more swelling than I planned. On the positive, I have reduced (or at least kicked the can a few months on one stress item in my life).1 -
Okay, last full week of April is here!
Yesterday for Easter, I ended up eating about double my daily calories. And you know what? I'm totally fine with that. One splurge day in 2 months? I've worked hard. No regrets.
Last week goals:
1. Log all food 6.5/7 (tallied yesterday up as best I could)
2. Strength train 2/2
3. Swim 2/3
Same goals for this week!2 -
No change this week thank to housefull over the Easter weekend, goals for this week. Log all meals stick to plan, we go to Paris on Sunday so next week might be a problem hoping no gain2

Well, the weight's up, then down a couple of lbs so just staying the course through April. I'm at my starting morning weight for April today 204.8, my lowest this month was 202.4. Will be using next Wed as my official weigh-in. I'm keeping up with the fitness, and logging everything.I've increased my water jogging the last two days, and will try to do that for a week -although time can be challenging (ends up being about 2 hours at the gym with change outs). Wishing everyone the best this week.2

SW: 271
CW: 220
GW: 130
I know we are close to the end of the month, and to finish out April I am trying to make it a goal to:
-Get to the gym every day I work.
-Drink as close to 64 oz. of fluid as I can daily.
-Get to 215. (Or at the very least under 220.)
I am rooting for all of you! Let's do this, ladies!!3 -
Okay, last few days of April are here! (I'll make a new May group on Wednesday).
Last week was really rough for me. I went on a mini 2 day vacation with my bff and the eating wasnt great, but it sort of turned into a mini binge once I got home. Then my nieces and nephew were over and I allowed myself to eat bad stuff with them.
Ugh. So this week I'm going to try to double down. Eating so much better and taking myself to the gym more.
Goals:
Log all food at stay around calories limit 7x
Swim 3x
Personal training x21 -
Last week was theater week for my daughter. I chaperoned Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesday and Thursday involved escorting the youngest kids to the third and fourth floor dressing rooms. I logged 20 flights on Wednesday and 18 flights on Thursday. I skipped the gym. I was exhausted after all that. I stayed mostly within my food goals except for the pizza on Saturday. Everything is back on track today!!! Hopefully, I will have some pictures to post later.1
