My scale is stuck. It goes up and down within a tiny range but just seems to like to stay the same. Ugh. If it stays like this another week I’m going to have to change something- just not sure what.
@simbersea it happens sometimes-mine has been doing the same thing lately, as well! You have been doing a great job!0 -

I ended up making *delicious* muffins this morning, and stopped at the local market later. We picked up grinders for lunch and I picked up some london broil (so fresh) and made that for dinner. Paired it with a nice red wine, and had a few extra glasses after which put me over for the day. It was still a great day
Muffins made this morning - blueberry, blackberry, and strawberry
London broil, sauteed mushrooms, air fried brussel sprouts, and Kunde red wine4 -

Some of my neighbors and I have started social distance working out together outside some mornings. It is really the motivation I’ve been needing to be more active, which also makes me more motivated to eat better and track. Now I just have to cut down on the wine! 😆
Saturday was the first day I have really done a major project around the house during quarantine. My job has been crazy busy, which I know is a good thing, but yesterday I finally took some time to clean out my closet, which was a huger undertaking. It feels so good to have that completed! That, along with the running I did as part of my workout added up to a huge number of steps for me. Double win!!
Happy Sunday all!!

I don't know how I will survive this week! Today started my last 7 days, and I am doing doubles for this week! The amount of workout time changes each day, but I feel like it will be pretty brutal! I just have to finish it! But, I am loving it, and thinking of doing it for a second round (increasing my weights, and modifying it less!) I will do my three week progress picture, and see if there is *any* difference 1 -

Week 4 Pulse check: Who's still present and accounted for? Let's pull in together and finish April strong!!
I am here, but this month has been a absolute struggle for me. I have been super busy. I am in a food rut. I ran out of low cal balanced ideas. The produce at the store lately has been crap. So I have resorted to comfort foods and my weight shot straight up.
I can tell it has an impact on my mood as well.
I am trying today to get back to planning and staying away from the Doritos. Everytime this happens I feel like I should quit because I am not helping the team to be the biggest loser and I haven't been a good co captain or cheerleader for the team. But tbeing on the team helps me remember to get back up.

Don't worry about the team scale right now. I don't feel that is why this group was formed anyway. Here is where we can lean on each other and pick each other up if we fall. We need to be open and honest about our struggles because we are all able to relate and willing to share/listen. The minute we start hiding what we're consuming is the minute our inner demons take over our body and say let's see how much we can get away with while no one is looking! (I have done this with an entire chocolate sheet cake and actually threw it up afterwards) I used to live in a private prison like that, no one knew about it but me, I would overeat, get sick, throw it up. Repeat. Changing to keto stopped the cycle because.. Who wants to overeat meat/cheese/vegetables?
You have to look in the mirror when you pick up those Doritos. Weighin every day, log every. single. thing. I try to live by Keto and IF now, but it's the daily weigh-ins and daily logging and reporting here that helps pick me up when I do fall.
I hope I help in any way but long story short is ... Don't leave us we want you HERE!! Real bad! Lol1 -

@brandi_84 100% echoing what @Krysless2 said. You have supported us all so much in this group, and it is our turn to be there and cheer you on! Don't even think about quitting! I won't allow it!
Have you tried any frozen veggies? My local supermarket has been pretty consistent with fresh produce, but they are starting to have more frozen veggies available! Maybe frozen may be the way back to your routine!0 -

@sekotsjd I don't think I have gone full crazy, yet... But, it's quite possible that I will, soon! My job has been keeping me very busy, but having people around me almost constantly is freaking me out pretty bad now!0
