I knew I was starting to feel better today because when I woke up and looked around my home, all I could see was a mess. It looks like a tornado hit and I had to pace myself in cleaning up. My appetite has improved too. Hopefully tomorrow will be even better π€

@donna25trinity How exciting!! Congrats, it must be so awesome to be so close to your final goal.π
@Bill70sStrong Glad it came in! Enjoy π΄ββοΈ.
@oh_jackie Restorative yoga is really nice when you are stressed out or just need a little self-care. You normally just hold 1 or 2 poses on the mat for the session with your eyes closed. I may or may not have fallen asleep during them before.
@mshawski Thanks! I love your new ring, btw!
Earlier this week, I finished reading Thinner, Leaner, Stronger and the author suggests cutting cardio down to 4-5 days a week and for only 20-30 sessions to make strength gains. While I enjoy lifting, I love spin but I'll give it a try. Also, not really hitting the protein % he suggests but I am working on it.

Plans for setting calorie goalFor February, I will be joining the others in the group that are here for accountability while maintaining. I am adding 200 calories/day to my January target calories, for a total of 1680. For comparison, MFP stated that my maintenance calories should be 1610. Weβll see how this goes and adjust daily calorie goal if I begin to consistently gain.
Also, I will consider calories a βyesβ if either my food is under 1680, or my net is under 1400. Both of those numbers are 200 calories above my January numbers.Date: 2/1

***So though my βexerciseβ is on the lighter side, before I headed outside at 8:40 PM in 27 degrees, my apple watch said I had already done 602/510 move calories, 49/30 exercise min, 14/12 stand hours, 9,792 steps, 4.4 miles and 138 flights.
Today was also my βsecondβ run. Shorter than my first, but I needed to make sure my second run was a success so there would ever be a third. I did throw in a hill AND the one time I passed my friendly speed detector I sped up and got it to flash a β9β. :P

*** I owe a bunch of responses and will catch up today. At dinner time last night, I made gnocchi but scalded my hand and dropped my iphone into the recently boiling water when I tripped on the dishwasher door while carrying the pot to drain while calling for information to help get my advanced senior parents their COVID vaccinations. Amazingly, saved the gnocchi, iphone works (was in the hot water at least 5 minutes β Kudos to Apple), parents got their appointments, and I after a long evening trying to treat my hand I feel asleep with mega dose of advil and my wrapped hand in a bucket of cold water. This morning, I think it is going to be ok. Still tender, but I think I wonβt lose any skin. Last night, I tried to type on the computer but could not, and for my indoor cycling I did it will my hand raised over my head. The cycling increased blood flow made my hand burn like heck. BUT, no Pass day. I am saving those for something I enjoy!!!

*** Made it to Marathon. The last 200 miles took 5 hours, then unloading the SUV I stuffed full because, why not? Boxes are everywhere. Made dinner and at 7:45 headed out for first long walk in a while. Did 5.5 miles. I think I need to acclimate to the temps and humidity in Florida. 75 degrees is not super pleasant for meβ¦..yet. When I left home two days ago, it was 14 degrees. I personally like 58 to a high of 73. Yes, you can ask me why we bought a place in Florida. :P Tomorrow AM, I will step on the scale for my reference point for the next 10+ weeks. My scale here and the one at home are within .2, so it will also tell me how my planning and pre-tracking worked for the trip. Paper expects it to be fine/good.

@Bill70sStrong BTW glad my riding skills gave you some entertainment the other day! :P Congrats on your Peloton! Enjoy! Yesterday afternoon, Hubby drove with me up to Miami (2 hours) to pick up a rare Schwinn IC4 spin bike. Then we pickup up a flat screen TV, and apple TV unit and today he spent all day installing the TV and assembling the bike. NOW, to learn how to use these things. We probably are not going to start with the Peloton app (lesser version to the one associated with their bikes). I think we are going to try Apple Fitness and go from there.
EDIT: just did a 10 minute youtube spin class. Getting out of the saddle certainly uses different muscles!!5 -

I hve been stuck at 59.5 kgs for the last 2 months which has been frustrating. I weighed myself this morning and am now 58.8 kgs! Yay! This means im so close to my goal weight of 58 kgs. Very exciting for me! Looking forward to increasing my calories to maintainace cos im on 1200 calories atm which is def not easy! Ive lost 23.2 kgs since the birth of my buba 9months ago and tbh even prior to being pregnant i hve always been at least 7 to 10 kgs over weight! 0.8 kgs to go!! Xox
Congrats on the big weight loss, way to go!

Today has been an emotional roller coaster kind of a day for me. I'm having some family issues with my grown son and my hubby (not my son's father) and it's taken a real toll on me today. I've done at least 20 mins of housecleaning today, so I'm going to call that my exercise, but mentally I just don't have it in me to go get on the treadmill or do rebounding or anything that might help me to get some exercise calories, so I'm just gonna call it what it is, and take another pass today. I'm hoping that I can reign this emotional mess in tomorrow and do better. Hope you all are having better weather wherever you are.
Sorry to hear you are having family problems too! I think this whole month stinks, and there has got to be a full moon! Big hugs to you, my friend!
