    June GW: get back to 70

    1. Get my snacking under control. I'm good with my three meals, but it is the inbetween and evening snacks that undo everything
    2. My June goal is exactly the same as the April and May goal, I'll keep on reporting here on a daily basis until I get to 70 again - sorry for the spamming ladies.
    3. Hopefully, we will get back to diving again somewhere this month. I already said this last month, so fingers crossed. The good news is that today I'm not only at the office, but I used my bike to come here !

    Welllll... what can I say. I have been eating too much that’s for sure. I’ve adjusted my cals in my diary to restrain again because it is much needed.
    I’ve been struggling to identify why I was eating so much and yesterday it dawned on me. It is very personal so I’m not going to post it it here in the open. But now I know why; I still don’t know how I will handle it.
    But anyways, today hubby and I are married for 5 years, together for almost 30 and we are going to celebrate! It is in a fine dining restaurant so I don’t think cals will be the issue tonight as long as I watch my alcohol intake !

    GW 140

    End of June GW: 148

    I’ve been here before but let myself get lazy and stopped logging/tracking my weight. Now I find myself up 6 lbs. and am motivated to find some accountability to FINALLY get to my target weight and stay there.

    My main goal for the rest of the month is to log my food every day and stay within my calorie goals.

    35yo, 166 cm
    Maintenance weight range= 52-54 kg
    CW= 53.8 (as of 5/23/20)
    BF%= 20-22

    Goals for June: [week 6/8-14; 15-21; 22-28]
    - Follow through the workout plan ✅;😐;⭕️ (husband wanted to go hiking so I had to sacrifice my workout schedule... 😆)
    - Decrease sugar intake ✅ (and I started logging again! 🧡)
    - High protein drinks after major weight-sessions ✅ (replacing my Greek yogurt in morning or protein bar for afternoon workouts)
    - Devote time in stretch/yoga sessions ⭕️
    - Up dumbbell weights without hurting wrists ⭕️
    🔆New end-of-the-month challenge 🔆 do 3 standard pull-ups... at this point, don’t think it’s gonna happen... 🙈🙈🙈

    Made it for the last Sunday of June! (At least I’ve been working out! 😆)

    I took some back photos of myself at the end of May and realized my butt didn’t look like what I imagined, or not like what people had been telling me... 😕 So I decided to add another 12-week glute-focused program into my current schedule (actually part of Glute Lab by Bret Contreras). Of course I don’t have access to any gym-graded equipment, so everything has to be adapted into home-workout form. Right now I just finished the third week and do feel like I can feel my glutes better when doing BodyPump or other types of glute-related activities. Not sure how this will go or how prominent the results will be, but I’m still early into the plan so we’ll see!

    (Part of my July goals should be “make sure to post once a week! 🙈)

    1. Workout 3-4 times per week.

    A lot of travelling happened this week as I drove from Spain to France to empty my old apartment, so I tried not to snack too much in the car but on the way back it was not so good. In France we of course went out every day to eat at different places, but between packing and walking around I think we burnt off most of it. I'm happy to be back home and continue the workout regimen I started off last week!

    @Antiopelle congratulations on your wedding anniversary! You guys have been together for so long, it's inspiring.

    @cayenne_007 I love how you're riding so much! Here with the "new normal" rules, in order to go to the stalls (I don't own a horse) and ride you need to be affiliated to the State's Federation (which I've never been) so for now I can't do the same. It'd be such good exercise since I'm no longer used to it!

    @jacau - Good to see you back, I've been struggling with consistency lately. Funny how quickly I can slip into old habits. Started logging food again yesterday, I always eat better when I force myself to log.

    Consistency seems to be a theme this month it seems. Once the old loops kick in, it's a slippery slope.

    Definitely need @I4a_p 's Judicious July thread B)

    Steady wins the race.

    Goal #1: Start losing what I regained since February. => Small start made for the monthly average.
    Goal #2: Log and post more regularly. Logging at least 5 out of 7 days, posting at least weekly. =>Logged every day. Posting again after a break of 2 weeks.
    Goal #3: Stay active. => Work in progress. Keeping it up.
    GW Jun: 72.0 kg => Yup. Not gonna happen. But a start is made (talking about average weights) :)

    May SW ???? EW 143.6

    1. Lay off the carbs
    2. Workout at lunch 3x a week

    6/2 - 143.6 - how is it June? My life has been a madhouse, but hubby is recovered and we're off to WY tomorrow for a few days with 4 horses (and kids) for a sale this wknd. Sunday I'm going to take a great big sigh and be ready for some normalcy. The good news is I've maintained, the bad news - I've been chowing down nightly on enchiladas & dos equis.
    6/10 - 142.6 - I took a week off, we were traveling quite a bit. I was pleasantly surprised with the scale this morning. I did pack lots of oranges, apples, etc instead of having junk food in the car. I think it helped.
    6/11-142.2- Ave 142.6 - Did well with food and exercise yesterday.
    6/12 - 143.0/142.6 - epic failure on sweets yesterday..inhaled an entire bag of crispy brownie bites - the whole thing. :-1: Starting fresh today.
    6/16 - 145.6/144.4 - I did pretty well over the wknd, kept things in bounds and worked outdoors all day Sat. Actually took Sunday to rest up a bit - church and then a lunch date with my hubby at a fabulous restaurant followed by riding out in the country for an hour. So nice to have a day to 'reset'. Yesterday - ugh - I let him and my stepdaughter talk me into meeting them for a big greasy hamburger & fries for lunch - after I'd stopped for a breakfast burrito and then my MIL cooked dinner for us or I would've at least skipped dinner.... I still feel like my hands are swollen today and it was an immediate 2lbs jump. Skipped breakfast this morning and have a protein bar for lunch.
    6/17 - 143.6 - did much better yesterday.
    6/23 - 145.9 - yesterday I did decent...but Fri/Sat/Sun was road trip to Texas and involved waaaayyyy too much food at my old favorite places. I still feel so puffy. Drinking tons of water and a protein bar for lunch/no breakfast. I think I should be back on track by Thursday.
    6/24 - 144.4 - Better yesterday, still working on drinking tons of water & light lunches. I haven't been working out at lunch, but have been spending 2-3 hours working at the barn every evening.
    6/25 - 144.2 - Lots of salad and pretty decent day. Rode for hours last night, love this time of year.
    6/26 - 143.2 - Crazy busy day yesterday, drank tons of water - I think I was so bloated. Rode for a couple of hours and then shoveled sand - working on foundation for washroom. IDK how many calories it burned, but I'm sore today.
    6/29 - 145.6 - Did a couple of photoshoots with the horses over the wknd, my Mom came and helped - I'm sooo sore today. It seems like when I'm really bodysore, my weight goes up? I did 'ok' on food - indulged here and there but also moved around a lot. IDK - I'm ready for July.

    Last day of the month! My god, it went so fast!
    No progress this month- After going to OTF everyday and being active, I saw no progress⬇
    Bummer but, I do feel good so that's what matters.

    I need to really start to watch my calories. Summer means a lot of entertaining and it also means lot of drinks and food every other day! With the holiday coming up, we have Thursday, Friday and Saturday plans. I'm going to try IF so I can keep it within range.

    We need the July thread! Where's @l4a_p?

    To be completely honest, I went in a short term unhealthy direction (intentionally)...

    I joined a DietBet and my goal was too aggressive... I was getting close to the end of it and had still not hit my goal.
    I didn't want to lose money so I *blah blah blah* (don't want to promote what I did) and I lost the weight I needed.

    Now that the DietBet is over, I fully expect the weight to come back and I plan on either not doing anymore DietBet's or finding ones that have a more attainable goal so that I lose weight the correct and healthy way

    I appreciate your honesty. Remember this is a journey, we all learn as many things to NOT do, as we learn about what works for us. Glad you won the bet, and good luck in July! I have started adding walks in the evening, hoping to stop my grazing and been drinking more water. I would like to give IF a consistent try after the long weekend. Let's see !!

    Maintenance weight range= 52-54 kg
    CW= 53.4 (as of 6/12/20)
    BF%= 20-22

    Goals for June:
    - Follow through the workout plan ✅ (Minus the days we went hiking... overall still good!)
    - Decrease sugar intake ✅ (It is hard to reach daily goals if everything is non-processed)
    - High protein drinks after major weight-sessions ✅ (sample of brownie flavor from MyProtein turns out to be pretty good 🤔)
    - Devote time in stretch/yoga sessions ⭕️ (Start to like doing yoga as first thing in the morning when everyone else’s still asleep...)
    - Up dumbbell weights without hurting wrists ⭕️ (This would be a long fight... inflammation seems to get worse 😥)
    🔆New end-of-the-month challenge 🔆 do 3 standard pull-ups... this will be my July goal instead 😛😛

    Finishing my June workout with Glute-focused exercises... not sure how much growth I’ll see (cuz it’s only been one month) but I do feel better in glutes and am very sore right now! Can’t wait to finish July and see how much progress (gain 🍑) I can make 😂😂😂

    A lot of fluctuations but overall not bad seeing as it's the first month that I've taken it seriously since March. I've started to workout consistently again and I'm seeming to be managing better the weekends now. Let's see about July!

    I have had a rough 2 weeks. I have not been tracking my calories, and have been eating loads of chocolate and really unhealthy foods. Through some miracle I have maintained my weight (usually I gain so quickly!).

    I am re-starting again today! I am tracking my calories again, and working out again. I am disappointed in myself for getting off-track, and so I am getting back on!!
