Hi all
I need to up my walking as I’ve become complacent whilst in isolation, so my goal this week is to do more steps, even if it’s following a you tube walking channel. Good luck everyone
I get the complacency aspect, I'm teleworking during this and find myself working more hours then I would if I were in the office. Mainly cause of the responses to COVID. Luckily I have a four legged companion that takes me for at least one nice long walk a day.
I also set a calendar reminder to get up and do some form of exercise. Otherwise I'll keep responding to emails or working the mountain of task my four bosses pile on me.
I also downloaded a few apps that help keep me active.
Hopefully you find the right motivator to keep you up to par on your walking game.
I wish you the best.

I'm keeping a conservative 1 pound a week goal but will press for 1.25 to 1.5. I'm fairly sure that I can get 5 pounds for a target of 210 or even better, but I don't want to set myself up for failure.
I plan to start doing a little more HIIT style routines as various injuries are getting well enough or they are not bothering me at all. So I feel better about pushing in that direction.
Otherwise, I'll keep doing my walks with my fur baby and doing some lifting at the house.
Hope y'all are all hitting your marks and getting it in whenever you can.
Peace!
V/r,
DW

April has brought a lot of stress and set backs in my journey. Hoping this Month can turn it around and be the start of something great. I am lowering my weekly goal lb a week. I feel this will be better if I have and grab a snack when I I stressing. Still going to aim for around the calories set for 2 lb.

Recording a day early just because I was so happy to see a lb. go....! I did some changes this week: alternated running and walking days. On walking days, went early and in a fasted state, turned the garmin on and kept going until it registered 500 calories burned....later in the day, I then added 20min workout in front of the TV while watching the news: weights, push ups, stretches, some yoga moves...
Diet: I am measuring olive oil.....using a teaspoon instead of tablespoon. Keeping protein at about 20gr per meal minimum. Trying to focus on selecting low inflammatory foods.
1 cheat meal 1x a week....an on the cheat day I work in moving more.
If I get really hungry, the "rule" is to not snack, but instead eat the next meal earlier.
I will continue doing this and see if it gets rid of the additional 17.5 lbs that don't belong!7 -

No loss this week. Work was really frustrating this week and I logged a few too many hours of work and not enough working out. Also was not too good when it came to eating. At least I did not gain, that's a positive note. Hopefully I can get some good activity in over the weekend and bounce back next week.
Hope y'all are all hitting your marks and getting it in whenever you can.
Peace!

Looks like many of you had a great first week of the challenge and had a loss. That is super! And that is big time incentive for me to stay on the straight and narrow this week. I want to be able to report a loss too! No more excuses, back on track!

A little up and down throughout the week on the scale but ended up with a one pound loss so I can't complain. Did a lot of walking - this week I am focused on adding some interval training to my walks and adding some core work - daily planks and core work out 3 - 4 times this week.7 -
Hey everyone! I'm looking for as much inspiration as I can get right now.
Hope everyone is doing well!
