I am going to try my hardest to meet my weekly exercise goals each week for the entire month – I'm not going to lie it is very difficult at times due to the pain I feel from my osteoarthritis and weight, but I'm going to keep pushing through as best I can because I so very much want to be more mobile!8 -
@goal06082021 do you knit or crochet? I love both of those handcrafts because I find the repetitive motion sooo meditative and calming. I usually try to crochet or knit while watching tv because then it stops me from sinking into the bored listless TV stupor where I let Netflix continue on to the next episode, and the next episode... but cross-stitch is lots of fun too!!3

Hey ladies!
April is a new month. I lost 7.4 pounds in March and I'm hoping to do the same! I wanted to get to onederland but that might be an unrealistic goal, we'll see. I'm working this whole long weekend so that'll save me some Easter dinner/chocolate calories haha. I plan to take my dog on a big walk today. I didn't get the exercise the last couple days cause I was working long days, but I was definitely active at work and got my steps in. I've been feeling so good lately watching the weight go down and feeling in control of what I'm eating. I've recently taken over all the cooking in my house and my hubby will eat anything I make so I've got pretty free range. I never really liked cooking, but I got this new kitchen and now I'm starting to really enjoy it.
Goals for April:
- track everything everyday, even little bites here and there and even when it's bad
- drink more water
- go for a walk daily (with the exception of my 12 hour work days)
- cut back on sugar
- no late night snacking, brush teeth early to help
Happy Saturday everyone!10 -

Cesse47 loved your goals. Can relate to decluttering . Sometimes think I need to keep everything as I need to hold on to the memories.
Thanks for the post!2 -
Cesse47 loved your goals. Appreciated the goal of decluttering. Sometimes I have a hard time of letting go of things. Feel like I am the keeper of the memories.

My goodness but I have a LOT of cooking to do this weekend. Breakfast and lunch for the week (burritos and cabbage rolls, respectively), a pecan pie and roasted sweet potatoes for Easter dinner tomorrow, and fish tacos with pico de gallo and lime crema for dinner tonight. I'm off Monday so I could space things out a little bit by making the cabbage rolls later, but I also kind of want to get it all knocked out so I don't have to spend my entire long holiday weekend in the kitchen.
I've finished the burritos, they're all wrapped up and in the freezer now - we switched to using a smaller tortilla, soft-taco-size (about 8") instead of burrito-size (about 10"), because the larger ones suffered from Extra-Crispy Ends Syndrome and my husband found that unpleasant to eat. The smaller burritos don't have this problem, and they're also a cool 120 calories lighter than the bigger ones, so it's win-win. My breakfasts now clock in around 300 calories and tbh they do still keep me going, I don't find myself needing a snack by 10 AM or anything. We've got sausage, Yukon gold potato, grilled red onion, and pepper jack cheese in the egg mix this week; I was going to add black beans, and then I proceeded to not do that.
The pico de gallo and lime crema are also now chilling in the fridge so those flavors can get to know each other for a little while before dinner. The pico is my entry for this week's r/52WeeksofCooking challenge over on Reddit - the theme for week 14 (4/2-4/8) is Forbidden Fruit, so I wanted to make something with tomato. The challenge will be remembering to take pictures before we devour it all, LMAO. I do wish we had chips because I'm certain we're not going to eat all of the pico on our tacos, maybe I'll bake some of the extra corn tortillas into crispy triangles. I know they're supposed to be deep-fried, but I hate frying in my tiny kitchen, it makes the whole house smell like grease for days. I especially don't want to fry the fish for that reason - those fillets are getting baked instead.7 -

I ran a my first chip timed road race since February 2020 and came in first in the Women's Master Division for 10K and 7th overall with a 9:12 mile pace. This was a personal best for me. I had an advantage - we had staggered start times to avoid over crowding, and I missed my start, so I ran really fast, trying to catch up with my peer group.
Found an outlet for my baking hobby - there is an organization that provides Sunday lunch to the homeless in my community that was looking for someone to make several dozen cookies each week. I made some really fantastic chocolate chip and double chocolate chocolate chip cookies today. Unfortunately, I ate one of each (you know, to make sure they were acceptable). So, despite my intense morning workout, I might be over my calories today. 😮
11 -
@speyerj So, out of curiosity, I found a calculator that estimates calories burned while running, based on pace and duration (and all the other usual suspects, age/sex/height/weight). According to that, running winning your 10K burned about 600 calories or so for someone with your stats. (Awesome job, btw, that's a great accomplishment!) So...what kind of Costco-size cookies are you making that clock in over 300 calories each?? and can you send me some?? LMAO
That also puts the concept of calories and a calorie deficit in perspective - if I wanted to create my 500-calorie deficit by exercising only, I would need to run 10 km every day. I mean, it makes sense but I'd never thought about it before, I guess. It suddenly seems much easier to just stay out of the kitchen when I've reached my limit for the day.7 -
@goal06082021 - these were Costco sized cookies! The organization wanted large cookies because for a lot of these folks, this could be the one decent meal they are getting all week. So they want them to be extra special. And they were. I put the recipes in MFP. The Chocolate Chocolate chip one was 309 for one cookie and the chocolate chip was 259. Of course, I needed to have a large glass of milk with them too. This was after having a carb heavy breakfast (racing fuel) and post race snacks. And your calculation was pretty spot on - per my fitness tracker, it said I burned 659 on the race. The saying is true - you can't out run your fork, but it does give you room for dessert (just not two desserts!)7

HT: 5'4
Age: 48
Friday Weigh-in
April 2: 196.2 - Down .8lbs
Thoughts: Looking forward to a great month. I'm going to challenge myself to eat more whole foods... sticking with plant-based of course. I already made a vegetable soup that I will eat as a snack and before meals when necessary. It's only 39 calories per cup, which is awesome. Other than that, I plan to strength train at least twice a week.
Wishing all of you a healthy April. Let's crush our goals!!

Although I logged in my food during the work week I haven’t gotten on to this thread to end March or start April until now.

2/6: 256.6 adjusted according to my new scale.
2/7: 255 -1.6 lbs lost of extra new scale weight
2/27: 254.8 -.2 but I went up to 257 so this is a loss of 2.2 lbs
2/28: 253.4
CW: 255.2
1st GW: 220 The lowest weight I got to when I last lost significant weight.
2nd GW: Onderland 1st, maintain for a few weeks then
3rd GW: 186 overweight but not obese
4th GW: 150 lbs. Healthy weight Then evaluate what weight is best for me. I just want to get to a healthy weight for me.
April Goal weight: Under 245. What I want to see is progress relative to my lowest weight last year which would be under 245 but on my new scale. I usually am really happy with a 4-5 pound loss per month.
Goals:
Get 8+ glasses of water, log in calories daily, get enough sleep and stay under my calorie goal.
Up N.E.A.T. (steps, stairs, cleaning and cooking)
Get regular exercise:
• 2 strength training a week (1 with weights and 1 with resistance bands)
• 5 days of exercise (Start with 25 minutes and work up to 45-60 minutes for most days)
Meal plan so we avoid grocery shopping and make healthy meals at home. Limit take out to once a week.
Take another step towards lowering sugar intake.
Wait to have breakfast until I feel hungry while I am working remotely.
I have read the March posts that I hadn't seen this past week and the April posts.9 -

Hey Arralethec! Will you tell me more about your 12 week deficit cycle and the 2 week maintenance schedule? Does this avoid plateaus? How has this worked for you? Thank you! Hoping to avoid plateauing here soon!
This is actually my first time trying limited deficit cycles (but not my first attempt at losing the weight). And this is the first deficit period I've been in. The idea is more for psychological support - I started at 250.6lbs and have to lose 125lbs, so I have a long road ahead. However, if I allow myself to dwell on that and the idea that I'll be in deficit consistently for 2 to 3 years, it's just too much to handle. Plus, my body is likely to start fighting me at some point!
In the past, I do pretty well up to the 6 to 8 month point, then it all goes out of the window because I get diet fatigue. My plan this time round is to take it in 12 week blocks, maximise what I can for those 12 weeks, then take my foot off the gas a little and regroup for the next cycle. But in the 2 week diet breaks, I'll still be logging my food, finding out where my maintenance level is and working out.
My last deficit weigh in is tomorrow, but as of last week I'd lost 18lbs in 12 weeks, so a little over 7% of my total body weight. I'm aiming to lose between 5 and 10% of my weight each cycle.

Hello everyone, my name is Sarah and I am 32 years old. I weight 241.2 pounds and would like to set my goal to 200 pounds to start. I have always had difficulty loosing the weight and keeping it off. Before now my heaviest was about 220. Three years ago I had my son. While pregnant I gained about 40 pounds and after giving birth it came right off. However in the last couple of years since having my son, I have gained more weight. My body is in rough shape. My joints are sore, I sometimes become winded and playing with my son can become difficult at times. I want to loss weight to feel better about myself, to be happy and to do things with my family without feel tired or in pain. I have lost weight before and have fallen off the wage and had troubles starting over. I always felt discouraged. Especially when I was doing it on my own. I am happy to say that I am not alone anymore. I have my mum as my support system as I venture on this new journey. She has been on her own journey for the last four month and now we can do this together. I feel now, that I have the suppose I need to finally accomplish my goal.

The gain was no surprise. I hurt my back on Wednesday jumping on the trampoline with my youngest. My core is definitely not strong enough for that yet! It meant no more exercise for the rest of the week. Then I got lazy with tracking and Easter and lots of salty food. Bleh. My body was like, "What are you doing, woman? This feels awful."
Good news, my back is significantly better, so I'll be back at the gym today. And our Spring Break is over, so a return to routine for me. I need to start figuring out how I'm going to handle the summer...6 -
@sarahelton87 Welcome! This group is so awesome for support and accountability!
@Arralethe I've been considering doing something similar myself. With 100 lbs to lose, I'm in the same boat. While I generally don't have problems with cravings or bingeing if I'm keeping to my calorie and macro targets, I do get a bit tired mentally from being focused on "lose, lose, lose" all the time. I also like the idea of "practicing" maintenance throughout the process. It's one of my goals that if life gets crazier than normal (which it inevitably has every time I've found my groove over the last decade), I will focus on maintaining rather than throwing the towel in and gaining it all back. I'm going to join you, if you don't mind, doing 12 weeks at deficit and 2 weeks at maintenance.

This 12 week deficit cycle has come to an end, and I've lost 19.8lbs. A little under my target of 21lbs, but it's a very respectable loss! I've also nudged my BMI *just* under 40.
According to Miffin St Jeor equation, my maintenance calories for being sedentary are 2,100 ish, so this week I will aim for that intake. My spreadsheet with Garmin total calories burns indicates that actually (with exercise), my average is between 2,200 and 2,500, so I'll try 2,100 daily to start and see how that works. I'm both excited and apprehensive - I have NEVER tried active maintenance before!9 -
@Arralethe That's awesome!! Way to go!!2

The hike on Sat went well. Foot wasn't terrible yesterday compared to treadmill so I might look into high top sneakers to see if that helps; I had worn my hiking boots on the hike. Some soreness just not as bad.
Easter was well. Portioned the things we had, My mom hadn't told me about breakfast plans and that would have thrown me off a bit with what she had. We had only planned dinner foods so I went at our regular Sunday time.
The holidays like Easter I appreciate my sensitivities a bit more, especially ones that mom forgets about. My husband gets all the things I can't have. Most everything are things I can moderate and the things I could get into trouble with don't have very many so I should be just fine with the treats to work in.
Scale did not have the usual bump up today so I might be able to see new lows by Friday.7 -
I haven't lost any weight, but I think I am recomping because my jeans are fitting better again and I am having MUCH more energy and strength for daily activities. I'm doing machine weight work three times a week, and soon I will add in either walking or stationary biking on the off days. I have to be careful due to the exercise intolerance, but my body is apparently getting used to the weight work and isn't throwing a fit and making me lie down after lunch any more.
I'm having a lot of internal resistance to logging and so I'm not doing it, but I'm keeping my portions down so that I know if anything I'm at maintenance. I'm not sure what's up with that, but I know that exercise will also reshape me and help me work through this and so if that's working, I'll roll with it until I feel that I can log again.
I got through the first vaccine dose well; I had a fibro flare, but I have a flare whenever anything happens. Otherwise it was just a sore arm and swollen glands. I get my second one next Friday, and I'll plan to have a quiet weekend and know that I'll be back to normal on Monday. Then I just get to wait till immunity.6 -

Hello ladies!!! Happy Monday!
I just came off my set at the hospital and it is super sunny and beautiful out, I'm feelin so good! I lost 1.6 pounds this week very happy. I'm just over 8 pounds away from onederland!! Haven't seen that in a couple years. Maybe I can even get there this April? Who knows.
I just started adulting more and started making meal plans and organizing my grocery lists and being more smart in the kitchen. I used to just wing it and go to the grocery store everyday and just try to throw something together for dinner. Now I'm looking up recipes everyday and planning the week out. This new house is changing me! Or I'm just getting older and more wise :P haha. I plan to make a lot for dinner and freeze the leftovers for quick meals during the week or for lunches.
Taking Max on another big walk today my favourite walking buddy. We took him down to the river yesterday in the sunshine and he finally went in the water for the first time! Not fully in, but he wouldn't even step in it before! Super happy, cause he's got husky in him and will definitely need to be able to cool down in the summer.
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy the start to this new week!12 -
Hello everybody, I'm liking all the positive updates and new faces already in this thread!
Hubs and I went to bed early AF last night - we had planned to just take a nap in the early evening, but then we just...kept sleeping, lmfao. Ended up sleeping for 11 hours, it was awesome. I had today off from work so I relaxed, which was nice. I got all caught up on laundry and watched a few old episodes of Chopped, and got all my meal-prepping done for the week and everything. I also managed to snag a vaccine appointment for Thursday morning, so I'm excited for that!
This week's lunches turned out rather light (cabbage rolls made for a <300cal main dish, which I padded out to under 500cal with the addition of a hard-boiled egg, an orange, and a protein bar), so I went through and pre-logged as much as I could for the week so I know what kind of space I have for snacks. Sometimes the fake-Starbucks at work has some good stuff in the a la carte cooler, like interesting salads or sandwiches, so I'll probably treat myself to one of those at some point this week.
Tomorrow I'm starting to incorporate some very, very beginner kickboxing into my weekly exercise regimen. The video I found seems very doable. I'm not sure what the best way to estimate calorie burn from that will be, since I don't have a wearable of any kind and there are a few different entries in the database. It's an 18-minute workout: 4 sets of 4 minutes each of continuous movement, with 30 seconds' rest/water break between each set. I'm not sure if I'll be able to keep moving through the whole 4 minutes, guess we'll find out - if not, that's something to work towards. I've also decided to check out more of the natural areas with short hiking trails scattered around the county for my outdoor cardio, so that will be nice. There's one really close to my house that I've driven past hundreds of times and never noticed until recently, with a teeny-tiny parking lot (literally 5 spots) and a nice 1.5-mile loop trail; I went yesterday morning to check it out and had the place to myself the whole time.11
