My goals for this month:
1. Get to 72.5 kg
2. Get 70k steps a week even if the days are short and wet
3. Stay active despite lockdown and frozen shoulder
02/11: 73.8
03/11: 73.8

09/11: 74.0 Which I know is pretty high, I saw some lower numbers the last days. I feel I have to work harder than usual to drop the weight, I guess it might be hormonal and that a pre-menopausal change is happening.
10/11: 74.4 - Yesterday was a crazy working day and hubbie ended up preparing spaghetti bolognese late at night while I was still working. I gobbled down a double portion because I was starving, frustrated and tired. Of course, this shows today.
11/11: 74.4
12/11: 74.8
13/11: 74.8 - I've hit a plateau and it is frustrating. I'm eating well within my limits, I've amped up the exercise and then ... this. Ow well, nothing to do but stay patient. It will move eventually.
14/11: 74.6
15/11: 74.4
16/11: 74.1 - it is sooooo slow and I am wondering if it is hormonal or maybe my pain meds are interfering with my weight loss. I know my body full well by now and I know exactly what I need to eat and how much exercise I need to do. But this is caterpillar slow ... but at least it is downwards !

I'm late - but going to jump back on here to hold myself accountable to get back in the habit of daily weigh ins and being mindful. Winter is so freakin hard on me. I rely on being outdoors for exercise and it's much more difficult when its' cold.
2 goals -
Other than the 19th and Turkey day - I'm bailing off the sugar wagon.
Log my food intake daily
11/16 - 150.4
11/17 - 149.8 - did a decent job on food. Crazy how knowing I have to log it makes me so much more mindful.
11/18 - 148.2
11/20 - 147.4 - I've done pretty well the last few days, working on resetting some habits. We did turkey day at work yesterday and I indulged in a few brownies....but dinner was sugar snap peas dipped in ranch. LOL Balance, right?3 -

I think I really only see a downward trend when I do my long runs which is kind of annoying only because it's so time consuming. I don't think I'll reach goal this month, but I'm pretty ok with how I look right now3 -

Progress pic.
My calves are POPPING 😆
Tomorrow I’ll be 48! Can’t believe it. I’m almost 50?! But I’m feeling better, stronger and sexier than 10 years ago. So YAY for me.
Keep rocking, girls!!😘

Hi all!
I'm back after taking months off for injury and pandemic stress. I'm trying to build up my strength and endurance after herniating a disc. My goals for the month are:
1: Blogilates calendar workouts, every day
2: Track food every day, make fewer emotional food choices
3: Walk or run every day2 -
Joined in May....but did not continue. Have been working (with friend support) to lose over 30 pounds. I only want/need to lose another 5. My goals are fitness and strength training. Working hard to lower my bodyfat. When I started it was over 34.....now it is 28 (27 on a good day). I have inflammation issues. The weight (and bodyfat) loss has really helped.3

Happy birthday @weatherking2019! You're inspiring.
I'm restarting Day 1 today. I spent all day Saturday meal prepping. It was exhausting. I got up early to get groceries and then spent the entire afternoon chicken breast, steaks, porkchops and salmon into single serve portions. I made enough to last a month and packed them away into the freezer. I have no excuses but to stick to the plan this month.2 -

Great job!! That is such and chore and inspiration.1 -

3: Walk or run every day
11/24
1. I did today's Blogilates playlist and some of yesterday's. My glutes and hip stabilizers are *tired* and it feels great.
2. Need to plan today's food!
3. Didn't manage to get a run in before Zoom kids' conferences. I walked this morning and I'm planning on taking another walk this afternoon.

Thanks @booksnbrains! It was a chore but I hope it will be easier to stick to than weighing my food after cooking or eyeballing it accurately.
I was brave this morning and got on the scale. 137lbs! wohoo only up 4.5lbs. Not so bad given I haven't been careful with what I've been eating and my sleep has been terrible.
Today was hard. I wanted to snack all day but I resisted and stuck to 1200 cals today.1 -

SW70,5kg
Still 70kg, some days it fall to 69,6kg. I do eat chocolate. I don't consume sugar at all, no alcohol , one beer every few weeks. I walk around lake in the park approximately 5km route every Saturday and Sunday, I lift weights sporadically, squats. Most of the time I sit and work. I am out of ideas how to lower
number of calories.1
