Successes this week- working out every day with Gina B- Up to the Beat Fitness on UTube.
Happy to get in my 30 minutes of exercise every day and walk the dog every day. Logging my food... all of it. I’ve been consistently getting over 10,000 steps and eating at or under my calorie goal.
For lunch this week I’ve been eating premade chopped salads...all of it...and it takes me longer to eat since I graze on it all afternoon.
By doing this, my need to snack has stopped. It’s been strangely amazing! I’m am not starving at all, either!
Setbacks- No real setbacks this week! Just need to drink more water.
Here is to a March restart and upcoming Spring!

CW 277
GW125
Height 5’ on a good day lol
Looking for friends who are on a similar journey. I’m in it for the long haul. Trying to exercise 5 days a week. I do well with low carb or dirty keto. I have food sensitivities so I go by what works with me. I like fasting but it can send me into a binging fit so concentrating on calories and working out for now. I’m a good cheerleader too. Definitely love to spread positive vibes. 💜 Good luck 🍀
