@NRTyreman Heyyy I am looking into these Grenade bars you speak of. Have you tried different flavors? Could you recommend which ones you like?🥰
Ps @alpdexplorer This an awesome group! If there’s still no captain volunteered for July, I will be here to lend a helping hand!1 -
Week 5 Day 1
Sunday 28th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
Steps - 28,199
Everything hurts we went on a new route by our local lakes and my husband was convinced this path looped around. We ended up in a village over before he finally accepted defeat. Also discovered out dog, pictured, doesn't tire. Our husky x is currently curled up in the corner grumbling at everyone who walks past and our ridgeback is acting like we didn't walk 7+km.
Today will 100% be a more relaxed day
@alpdexplorer yes, definitely!
@krysless2 yes I have tried a few, I like the macro and calorie value for them as a meal replacement as they seem to be enough to get me through to the next meal. I was a little disappointed with the Peanut Nutter one, its edible but much prefer reeses cups . Cookie dough one is also really nice but I stick to the white chocolate cookie, mostly as Costco sells them much cheaper than buying them individually! I good snack bar we have in the UK is fulfill, not sure if you have that one in the states but the peanut and salted caramel one hits the spot on chocolate cravings.

Week 5 Day 1
Sunday 28th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
Last bike ride for a while so I made it an exhausting “how strong are you” test on my bike trainer…let’s just say that the Tour de France will have to pedal along without me for a while 🤣
@NRTyreman that looks like a lovely picturesque walk with your beautiful family, even if holy cow look at that step count! 😳.
Yes, I think I will stay for July. Still not at goal weight and I really enjoy being here. Today I need to find a scale in the hotel, or maybe a gym I can sneak into.

Week 5 Day 2
Monday 28th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
Steps - 12,920
Today is a pretty big deal, 100 days ago I was sat on this same sofa in 34 inch mom jeans which were a bit too tight and had a chat with a private fertility clinic . She went through all my blood works and I found out I had an insulin resistance, she recommended a vague guide to help and a multitude of vitamins and supplements. 99 days ago I downloaded the MyFitnessPal app and set my goal weight to 80kg (176lb), a weight I haven't been in over 8 years. Today I reached that goal and am sat comfortably in my 29 inch skinny jeans feeling pretty darned chuffed at myself. I've reset my goal down to 70kg which will take me well below my 'normal' BMI. Don't worry I am well aware of how flawed the BMI system is, however when you have non-emergency medical issues ticking this box is the only way to access some NHS treatments.
I was feeling a bit awful about my journey a week or two ago, so it's nice to be able to celebrate this achievement.
@alpdexplorer I remembered you posted something recently about foot/shin type pain. I got lost (again?!) yesterday and my fancy long distance shoes (nike pegasus) got soaking wet. When I went on my walk today I wore my old trainers, still Nike but I think they are sold as training shoes? After about 5,000 steps I started getting that awful pain shooting upwards again. I think I might invest in a second pair now that I found out I fit in their children's sizes

Monday 28th June
Tracked - Yes
Under cals - Yes
Exercise - Yes
No scale in the hotel, and no local gym! @Krysless2 I might have to give my weigh-in on Friday . Exercise was the hotel treadmill. Way too hot to walk much outside. It was 95 (35c).
@NRTyreman, 🤩 So many wins in such a short paragraph. You floored me, and I won’t lie, I teared up a bit reading that. Congratulations on your first 100 days!!!!
Editing to add I found out that container ship that got stuck sideways in the canal? Carrying some bicycle parts headed for the UK. Maybe that explains what happened to your online bike!2 -

Yes! That was me. Oh man. I've been looking at a different brand for walking. I wore the shoes I wear at the gas station and have no problem. So I'll have to find more of that brand!2 -

It's been rainy the last few days so it's been hard to get my walks in. So darn humid, too. Gross.
On the upside of things, I hit a weight loss goal of 25 lbs! One goal down, several to go.3 -
