Doesn't mean I can't have it - but I'm gonna log it to remind myself it counts. The early dark evenings make me want to hang out in the house & bake.... I LOVE to bake - and none of it's healthy, but it's so yummy!
Totally get it! I'm all for comfort food when it gets cold and dark early. We're seeing snow marks starting tomorrow here in NE OH. urgh.
I was googling stews and slow cooking ideas just now! I saw Beef Cheeks cooked in crockpot with red wine... Beef Tongue (!) in crockpot for tacos- Going to see if my local butcher has these!!
I've been making stews lately... They're higher carb than what I like but it's so nice to come into a warm hearty bowl and my boyfriend loves them. So far - Green Chile Stew - Green Chile Corn Chowder (my fav) - Tried this one the other day, it's pretty good - https://www.plainchicken.com/2019/10/the-ultimate-crack-chicken-chili.html2 -

SW: 137.8
GW: 133.8
Goal #1: Snack less at night
Goal #2: Move more at work
Goal #3: Eat more mindfully
Nov 1: 137.8
Nov 4: 138.6
Nov 6: 139.2 - Been "sneaking" food and shoving my face alone in dark corners because I'm convinced that if no one else sees it then it doesn't matter and I can get away with it........ I need a food babysitter at all times. Also, did you know that Oreo thins have a latte flavored creme kind? Me and the half empty container know now too LOL! Hope you all are doing better than I am!
Nov 7: 138.4 - Focused yesterday on moving more and not snacking and stuck to it!6 -

SW: 108.2
Nov GW: 107, BF: 19%
GW: 105 BF: 19%
Goal #1: Keep up with 4X a week of OTF
Goal #2: Meal prep more. Utilize Crockpot! Soup season!!
Goal #3: Keep photo records of self...
Goal #4: Simplify life. Not stress over things out of my control😉
10/1 / 109 lbs, 21.4%, measurements 33.5-27.5-33.5
10/30 108.2, 19.1%, measurements 33.5-27-33.5
11/4 109.8, 19.8%!!!! 33-27-33.5😲😲😲
11/7 108.4, 19.2%, 33-27-33.5
I feel back to where I started. I guess I feel OK. Even adjusted my macros and upped my Carb to 50%!? It's now Carb 50%, Protein 30% and Fat 20% now that my BMI is in the 19% range, I figured I can change it up to see if it makes any difference. (I've been eating more Carbs lately and I feel stronger at the gym. I have more to give: so the change)
And I also watched the GAME CHANGER on netflix last night. Not that I ate ton of meat to start with, I feel like I can eat even less now. So even though I left the house with Pork loin in the crockpot this morning, I will stick to roasted veggies with a tiny bit of the pork tonight.

I grew up in NM - lived in TX for 20 years & back to NM about a year and a half ago. I used to go crazy on mexican food every time I came home to visit & my Mom always brought me frozen green chile. I love the stuff & put it on everything. We're about an hour south of Albuqerque, it's been an interesting cultural adjustment after loving life as a Texan. LOL! Where did you go to school?1 -

I'm going to add in one thing to force myself to measure at the end of the month......
Bust: 38 - Aug (-1")
Band: 33 - Aug (-1")
Waist: 28.5 - Aug (-.5")
Hips 38.5- No change in Aug
No change in measurements in Sept - At least I was consistent with weight/measurements! LOL!
Goal #1: Workout 5 days a week - Yoga Burn/Bike/Walk - stay consistent with Push Up Challenge
Goal #2: Build Upper Body Strength - 90 Second Planks - Forearm & Extended Do 25 real push ups in a rep
Goal #3: Drop .5" off waist
Goal #4: Stay under on intake min of 5 days a week
Goal #5: Do some decent crockpot meals
10/31 - 142.6 - IF, bit over on calories...insanely busy day - no workout but decent amount of walking
11/1 - 143.8 - LOL - I'm still ok with this. The 142 was a new low for me so hopefully it's a good start to the month. IF - I did put together a chicken/chili crockpot dish this morning - we'll see how it goes
11/4 - 146.8 - bit surprised at this. I worked outdoors all day Sat and busted my butt... One of those days you just fall into bed exhausted. Sunday I did take it a bit easier. Back to logging everything today. Got in a good walk at lunch - my should is still not 100%... trying to do decent on food and just maintain. Went over about 300 cals today - when your 96 yo Gram wants you to take her to dinner, you take her to dinner and have nachos & irish beer with her.
11/5 - 146.2 - Snuck in a great walk at lunch today and managed not to go over too badly. Kid's basketball game right after work made much more impossible. Still stuck to IF.
11/6 - 145.8 - rainy day made my lunch walk impossible....but insanely busy evening doctoring a colt & all the horse stuff alone so 2 hours of just stuff outdoors. IF - and stayed under on cals, but terrible nutritionally. Nachos & beer for dinner.

I went to school at NMSU in Las Cruces and my husband is from ABQ and went to school at NMT in Socorro. I typically get to go back once a year for either the balloon fiesta or college recruiting and just fill my backpack up with green chiles and take it on the plane with me. We miss the land of enchantment!2 -
Finally lost enough fat to start seeing some of the my leg muscles. Still got plenty to lose but my NSV for the day.
P.S. Ignore the unmade bed in the background, I wasn't quite done lounging when I took the pic...

My weight has bounced all week from 66,9 to 66,2. Which is fine. I did eat more (which is the plan). But I was hyper focused on it and that’s not great (goal 1 was not respected).
So I am going to keep up every habit I’ve got (and goal 2 and 3) except the daily weighing. Just to let my mind enjoy the lifestyle without knowing what number was associated to my body that morning.
I did wear some clothes I’d folded away (goal 3) only to notice they have become a bit too loose, but still wearable.
I am close to 65,xkg. And that number is a bit of a big deal to me. I will be extra pleased to reach it at some point, but I am not giving myself a deadline. I trust the process.
Have a lovely day/night/time on your journey!5 -
