Okay team! We are in day 2 starting tmo Monday!
My November Biggest excuse is that I am tired and I don’t want to cook! Excuse! I feel that and I eat unhealthy and it hinders my own NSV. I love to cook, usually! We all have our days.
My NSV with this excuse is to have healthy frozen meals in the fridge when this happens. 👏👍👏

Sally - Way to start us out on Day 2: NO EXCUSES!
My November biggest excuse:
I don't have time! Whether it's meal prep or exercise, I hear myself saying "I don't have time today" when really it takes only 10 minutes (while doing something else) to hard-boil some eggs for breakfast, 30 extra minutes if done first thing to get in a great cardio session (15 and go hard if time is seriously the issue), and a few minutes after dinner to pack up lunch for the next day. My NSV is self-talk....recognize this for the excuse it is and argue back to myself that yes I do have time (while laughing at myself for trying this again)!!5 -

WOW!!!! ^^^ @jcgator2016 what an amazing change he made!!! Wonderful Jim!
Wow @jcgator2016 - that's amazing!!! Kudos to him for keeping it off! I have 3 daughters and one son. One of my daughters is easily 100+ overweight and I can't say anything to her. She's 25. She has to do it on her own
I feel bad. My other two are under weight.

Sorry guys. I was out for a meeting and my FitBit died. I just got a new one on Friday. I did a 5k Turkey Trot on Saturday. Most of the steps from last week were from my phone which I forget and lay down. No excuses. I have to recommit. This is the most I have weighed in 2 years. Fortunately, once you go through the Ideal Protein Protocol, you can always go back for a "refresher". I will call them this week.4 -

It's only on rest days that I don't see at least 3k before lunch. Also you are a far braver person than I am, I don't think I could reset my weight to me in clothes.
@shbarbor Great steps! The eating out always gets me too, but it's so tempting when the hubby goes, let's go out.
@carolynsivik The cold and early dark are horrible and throws off a lot of us, so know you aren't alone. One thing I'm trying to do this year is to do at least one indoor activity that I really love, something that when I'm very busy in the warmer weather that I just don't find the time for. Some days it's knitting, others it's binging a few shows, or even a video game, no matter the activity it's a little me time that isn't exercise or diet focused. Hang in there.
Thank you! I appreciate this advise!!!3 -

Good Morning ...Day 2 NSV..EXCUSES Geez where do I start..... Well I think the#1 excuse for me in Nov. was that my new prosthetic brace didn't fit right or it made my leg and foot ( what's left them) hurt or it made me too tried after wearing it all day. I made 3 trips to the Ortho medical tech and each time they address the issues that I had and yes it did feel better and yes it was going to make me tired because I was working muscles in my upper thigh that hadn't been worked in a lot of years. I complained to the PT therapists and they told me to suck it up and move forward and Yes i gave them a lot of lip service and said all the things and what thy wanted to hear.
I didn't realize all of this until I had an appt. with my PTSD and Nutrition Counselors last Friday. The light came on.. the realization if I don't do something quickly about this situation I am a dead man. 10 toes up tagged and bagged cause of death...STUPIDITY OF HEALTH, BAD EATING CHOICES, AND A OLDIE BUT A GOODIE BLAMING MY SITUATION STEMMING FROM FROM MY COMBAT INJURIES.
So the leg is what it is and now it's time to get off the EXCUSES TRAIN and press forward in December. A new battle plan has been laid out for me by the PTSD and Nutrition Counselors. Now I have already put into place and pressing on. Oh and the leg it not hinder me at all.
