It seems like I have hit a wall. No progress this week also. One good thing is I bought some weightlifting equipments (barbell, dumbbell &,free weights, sadly no bar rack or bench.) online and finally it was delivered last weekend, now I don't need to miss my lifting session. Currently my work out schedule is lifting and running 3 times a week and one rest day. Somehow I am happier these days. 😊 Wishing everyone a great success in June!

Just stalling but then again I ate more last weekend being anniversary, this week little exercise, high work stress week. Last night loaded baked potato to jar my body. I am down 10" in measurements since I started May 4.
I will keep at it. If anything I am eating so much healthier.2 -
Sorry, struggling to get back to the group.

So take lemon juice and crushed red pepper juice from peppers onions anything spicy mix in a spray bottle and sit in the heat!! Dogs can smell it coming from a mile away I have only sprayed it twice now!! Made it 3 months ago!! They avoid me like the plague!!! The ones that did come to chase me had regrets!! One quick squirt and they are running off shaking their heads and hoping to never see you again!! Does not harm the dogs at all!! Just teaches em!! I use lemon juice to train my four dogs!! My dogs love spicy stuff so peppers don't stop them we eat salsa on everything. Yes I give my dogs our leftovers!! No they are not fat and unhealthy!! Hahaha
Thanks for the tip - I just might try that!

Slow but steady progress - I'm OK with that. I think the "green" challenge is what keeps me most motivated. I'm determined to keep that streak going!
I'm bummed because yesterday my 5 day, 300 mile ride was cancelled. I expected as much - how do you feed 500 people in a school cafeteria and maintain social distancing. So.....no surprises when I got the email, but bummed nevertheless. The ride was the first week of September. I'm desperately searching for something else but have found precious little that hasn't also been cancelled.

This week was good. I’m nervously excited about next week. I’m partially returning to the office. That gives me more daily activity and steps due to commute etc., and a place to test my hypothesis that my snacking urges are strongest at home, but it also puts me back eating lunch out in a restaurant. It’s going to be interesting to see which places are open and how they handle things, as the local laws allowed restaurants to reopen in June, but buffets are still banned and it’s table service only. Lots of places we used to frequent are either fully buffet style or have a salad buffet as an appetizer. So, this could go either way: I eat less at lunch because there’s no buffet to overload in, or I end up eating heavier because the restaurant makes a big tempting lunch without veggies I could get from the salad buffet.0 -

Good morning everyone
Congrats to @beka3695,@be_theBest_me and@ mrsjhardin on you weight loss. Can you please let me know where I can find week two challenge. I don't remember taking part in the green challenge,😂and don't want to miss out on any challenges

Good evening! Today my husband and I made plans to go for a long nature walk by the seashores, and then have a healthy meal. We ended up skipping the walk and going for a bbq at my mom’s house instead. We did plan the menu so I definitely had a say about the food choices, but I’m still very proud to still be in a calorie deficit for the day.
I’m looking forward to the new week and what it brings! My goals for the upcoming week are:
- go to the gym twice
- Hit my burn target (2500) every day
- Complete my food diary every day
- Lose weight and stay in the green!
Ideally I’d love to lose at least 1lb, but this is a week of big changes with returning to the office, so I’m happy to stay on track with a lower number if that’s what happens. I’m also expecting a visit from Aunt Flo next weekend, which might affect how things flow (ha, no pun intended).3 -
I haven't been around a ton lately because the below.
Cody (my 18 year old freshly graduated son) decided to move out on 5/21. That wasn't easy for me to take so I began to work on my house. Here's a few stages of his room. (Sanding was done today) it isn't finished but looks so good.

Sorry I have not been around, busy times for many of us to make ends meet. Happy with my 12 months so far. I will catch up when I can.

In the maintenance zone
My eating is all on track, but last week exercise went out the window. Just trying to get used to new routine of getting my daughter to school again, and have to give myself a talking to about going to bed earlier and getting up earlier so I can get the exercise in first thing... it has slipped!

@boehle - the floor looks great! Did you know there was wood floor under the carpet?
Yesterday was not a good day - I've got a funk going for a couple reasons - and while normally a good walk/run or bike ride helps me feel better, I have zero ambition. Add to that some really bad food choices and I have no desire to do anything. Need to pull myself up and out of this hole before it spirals out of control. Today is a new day. I can't control what other people do, I can only control my response.3 -
Monday Monday Monday!! Here we goooooooo!!

I know you can get your streak back. Foods... probably not. I know there have been tech issues, but that is not a reason to be derailed. This is a curveball life will toss from time to time.0
