@TheMrWobbly I've taken to marching while I brush my teeth and doing high knees in the ad breaks.
I also bring the washing in (from the pine dangling from my bedroom window) item by item, carrying each one to the basket in the living room individually or in twos and then folding everything before taking stuff back to the bedroom in small groups to keep me more active.
I keep my water jug in the kitchen so I have to move each time to want to fill up my small glass.
I'm also trying to do all the @rwl free workouts this week on Instagram, but realise that's EAT not NEAT!3 -

I have absolutely no idea how I lost a lb. I feel like I have gained and I have been eating so unhealthy... I am guessing that I actually gained and that it just looks like a loss thanks to dehydration.
I am not complaining though!!

Hi all, and welcome @jrortega1912! This is the perfect time to join a challenge. This is my fourth month in this awesome group. I started my turnaround in December, after getting close to 160 pounds after Thanksgiving. Having accountability during this chaotic time is what I need. Even if I don't lose much weight this month, I'm looking forward to some fun and encouragement from people attempting (and achieving) wellness in self-isolation.
There are so many people in my SoCal neighborhood that I can only walk at night (or very early mornings which are non-existent on our new stay-up-late schedule). The park is flooded with silly people too close together, so my park walks are out for a while. I'm planning to go back home to WI for a wedding in June and would like to be at my comfy weight of 133. It can be done, but only if I stay motivated and committed. I admit I'm prone to laziness!
@TheMrWobbly, I'm thinking of getting more NEAT activity by doing little walks around my block, which is about 10-15 minutes around, then do some stretches/rolling. This will help with my stir craziness and flexibility. I'm already cooking more, so that's bumping up the NEAT too. I spent 4-5 hours on my feet making jam last week.
April goals:
NEAT activity of 3-5 walks around block and stretching/rolling per day
Staying (relatively) pain-free while upping my cardio workouts with DVD's
Getting under 140 pounds (and staying there)
Not going nuts with my hubby working from home!3 -

I'm up for it @boehle though I don't know what some of the exercise are.
Some good NEAT ideas - keep them coming in1 -
I definitely enjoy the NEAT exercises, its one of my goals this week to increase my average TDEE that I get on my "weekly progress reoport" from Fitbit!1

Hello I am Megan, I am 27 and live with my long term boyfriend Ryan, and my Boxer/Bloodhound mix Lilly.
I love water skiing, kayaking, listening to audio books, hiking, swimming, etc. I really struggle with exercise outside of these "fun" activities.
At my heaviest I weighed 160, and I am back to upper 130s right now. My goal is to get down around 125 (the mid range weight for someone 5'2"). This has always been my goal, but I get stuck and never can seem to "finish."
April Goals:
-Exercise consistently - 2-3x per week
-Log foods consistently
-Don't let staying at home all day lull myself into laziness.

Party people, PARTY PEOPLE!!! My name is Sterling Scott from Portsmouth, Virginia. I believe I was a part of this group once upon a time. Saw some familiar people. Looking forward to a 180 in my life this year, so that is my goal weight. I'm down for the abs challenge. My BIGGEST challenge is finding no weight exercises during this time because we are locked down until June. My favorite fitness youtubers are athleanx, anabolic aliens, and greg doucette. Looking forward to sticking with the program this time. This community has been a blessing for me in the past. Until next time.4

Tomorrow is Adeline’s birthday. Her cake vs my cake 🤣. And the miller light isn’t mine either.

Can I use this tomorrow? I wouldn't let him leave but hell make him get up early and get ready? He slept until 2pm today and I might be jealous.

So there goes Q1. My only goal remaining is the 2020 miles on foot @ 4 mph+ in 2020 which is still on target. 263 miles speed walking, 307 miles running with a paltry 69 miles of cycling (and the bike is in the garage for now!). In total I did 1.5 Million steps (789 miles) which is a surprising amount of non-exercise miles. Q2 is going to be tough as I have only managed 1.6 miles per day since quarantine in the UK.3

Neat idea for today - when I am sitting down I do 10 half squats before I plonk mu butt in the chair.
