    Hello Team! I’m looking forward to this month long challenge and hope it will reinforce new habits. I’m trying to limit processed foods and focus on moving more. I was surprised to see the scale this morning as it hasn’t even been a full week since my last weigh-in!! I don’t have a step tracker so I won’t be participating in the step challenge other than to offer support to those who are rockin it! Today’s exercise is 1 hr at the gym with Tabata, weightlifting and a WOD.
    DAILY GOALS:
    6 days/wk of exercise

    Hi Everyone
    The last week of May was definitely a busy one for me and unfortunately posting got pushed to the side. I get bad migraines with high heat and humidity so it was not fun! I am back on track now and am committed to posting post days and tracking all food throughout June. I just need to figure out how to wake up earlier so I can exercise before all the humidity comes.

    Check-In: Sunday, May 31

    •Log all food: No ❌
    •Under Calories: No ❌
    •Exercise: Sunday Funday 5k walk and jumping fitness ✔️
    •Water: 1L ❌
    •Steps: 14,949 ✔️

    Happy Monday team!! Hubby is off today so we get to spend today enjoying some time with him. We are going to the car dealership to trade in our lease and then this afternoon will be BBQ and getting the paddling pool out for the kids.

    Yesterday’s BBQ went well, had way too much to eat and drink but I skipped on dinner to keep my calories as low as I could for the day. It was nice to see my friends after almost 3 months.

    Today the plan is to have smoothies for breakfast and dinner and have a nice big lunch with lots of protein and veggies. I need to drink lots of water to help with my mini weekend gain. Only up 0.8 lb from Saturday so that’s a win. No run for today but I will do some jumping fitness later today and will try to get some jump rope minutes in as well.

    June goals:

    •Log all food. The good the bad and the ugly!
    •Stay on or under my allowed calorie goal.
    •Do at least 30 minute workout each day.
    •Drink at least 2L water each day.
    •Reach at least 10,000 steps each day.

    Hi I'm in for the step challenge. Hopefully it will kick my but into moving. I intend to try my best this month.
    My CW is 220 and weigh day is now sunday then I can stop having to subtract steps and just let my Fitbit do the counting lol.
    So day 1 for me and I intend to achieve it all xxxx

    I got you in for the step challenge. If you can please report your steps daily as it makes it easier for me to log them in. Good luck on all your goals for the month of June!
    Saturday’s check in
    Calories: over
    Exercise: 30 minute walk
    Water: ✅

    Steps 5/30 9,381

    I went a little over my calories yesterday but this is the best weekend I have had food wise in awhile. My weight was up .8 of a pound this morning and I think that had more to due with the sodium I had yesterday.

    I ended up going over a short walk yesterday. I had to get out of the apartment for awhile. I actually walked to the bookstore and giant tiger. I am really tired of the restrictions of the pandemic but we are in the first stage of opening so there’s hope.

    I am a little late going out for my walk today. It’s Sunday so we can be slow. I am hoping to do 5 km today.

    Today’s goals
    1. Walk 5 km minimum
    2. Stay within calorie goal
    3. Drink 8 cups of water

    Hi Linda! Well done on having a good weekend with food! I also struggle so much with weekends and always end up with a 2 lb gain. This time it was the same as you with .8 gain. Glad you got your walk in ❤️

    Have a couple of household chores to do today. Am listening to a new book (Nora Roberts - Hideaway). Think I'll just make it a lazy day to finish off the month.

    Have a great rest day today. I know for a fact that rest/lazy days are a big part of the journey as well. Our bodies thank us when we give them time to heal and recover.

    Ok there’s a lot going on. Lol. I logged in this morning and saw 40+ notifications in my community feed. I was also feeling a little down so it was nice to see everyone encouraging each other. We’re in this thing together! Anyway my general update for today:
    I’m sitting at 303.x after being down to 300.2 on Saturday. I’m still hoping to hit the 200s this week. HOWEVER, I’m also trying to give myself a little bit of a break because I have been on a good track the last few weeks and have dropped a lot of weight. I was surprised to see my name at the top of the list for May weight lost. So. I can’t be too sad with my situation. Although the 200s are calling my name! I also took a bit of a rest day yesterday after 7 days in a row of 3+ miles walk/jogged. The rest day combined with a few bigger than normal tasty meals I’m sure contributed to the bump on the scale. So... back to the grind!

    By the way, ANYONE who wants can join the jump rope challenge. It’s going to be Thursday through Wednesday and the leaderboard looks like this (anyone can join! Just send me your minutes!):

    @888Angie888 8 minutes (longest: 60 seconds)
    @metonymicalinsanity 4.5 minutes
    @mari_moulin 2 minutes
    @Piqueaboo
    @19shmoo69

    Please let me know if I missed any of your minutes. I tried my best to sort them out of all the comments but could have missed some.

    Ok folks let’s do this! Here we come June!

    That is great you got to see your friends. I can’t wait until that happens here. That small gain won’t be long disappearing as I am sure it is just water weight.
