My steps were 4,645
My food was shyte tomorrow is a new day.
My epic return got set back 1 day because my dad needed to get antibiotics today unexpectedly so we spent a lot of the day at the doctor's and commuting. All in all things are looking good.

Did you want me to remove the EXC. on our step challenge?

You have such great enthusiasm. Great leg day! It’s nice that you and Lynn are in this together. Your supper looks delicious! Keto has always intrigued me.

Thank you... I totally agree. Doing anything with a partner makes all the difference in the world. And seriously I could go blue in the face with how many positives Keto has for me and it's seemingly endless advantages. But you either into it, or your not I guess. The biggest thing is how much control you get seemingly over night over hunger, and cravings... I just don't care anymore about a sugar fix (And the related release of dopamine in the brain, and it's down regulation do to constant binging). I was seriously addicted to it for so long, I couldn't even come home without stopping to fill up on junk. Do Keto for around a week and just like that the unstoppable obsession ends. And Control comes fully back within you hands. Crazy really.

Omg yesterday and today we’re such long days I will have to update tomorrow.

@TheresaM787 OMG!!I hope everything is ok. Good luck dealing with it. We'll be awaiting your return.

@littleflutterby good exercise. Glad you are getting physio.

@rlaskey2 nice steps. Good luck with the interviews. I'm sure you will get an offer soon.

@Poobah1972 nice set up. Just be careful on the reverse roundhouse kicks. Lol.

Check in for 7/17:
Steps - 4025. I was short so I grabbed and of our littles (rat) and took her to the mailbox. After a lot of clawing and running across both arms we made it home.
Calories - 1740 or so. Made room for peach ice cream day, but then I put to much in the bowl and then added pineapple topping. I have to work on that more.
Exercise - gym with daughter. 8 machines but only 10 minutes on the bike. Legs were like rubber after the workout.

Someone asked if i have asthma. Sorry i don't remember whom. I don't have it.

Whew, it's so hot last few days, I don't mind the sun it's just the humidity side which makes it uncomfortable. 30c yesterday with no breeze, probably not hot for most of you overseas.

Unfortunately the houses in the UK have no air conditioning for these being in a oven feeling times. Had windows open and a fan on in another room, but it was just blowing hot air about for the most part haha.

Seem to be getting more hot spells each year in some capacity, but generally I don't think AC is a necessity for the temperatures and weather here year round.

I went on a bike ride with a friend on Friday evening in the hot weather, I must be mad hahah, but we had a lovely picnic in nature in the process. Whilst I got over 5 miles in, my eating this week has annhilated any progress so I apologise in advance if the scale takes a hike in the morning.

I made overnight oats last night for this morning with chocolate oat milk, oats, chia seeds, defrosted blueberries and mango, it was good! Shall experiment more next week as I didn't renew the meal prep for next month.

It's going to be a process changing back to full time no prep. I feel as it was coming to an end I've allowed more and not been feeling to calorie count. Time to reset and fully use my remaining drive to succeed! Going do a food plan for the week ahead later today.

I'm sad to read this @TheresaM787 , I hope everything is ok, you have been an amazing support to me and the team, sending you all the best wishes and hope to see you back soon.

Great check in! I am excited to start using the bike again on Monday. Is the bike your preferred way to warm up and do cardio at the gym?

My Gym is up ....I am a newbie when it comes to weight lifting so I am going to be doing 3 times a week on 10lbs for a month .. and the 20lbs the next month etc etc until I am able to lift 150lbs (which won't be anytime soon ) I am anxious but also terrified of getting hurt.... I will be starting this on Monday unless my headaches stop me from doing it ... I have had a migraine all day that is why I have be quiet

That’s great news that you gym is set up. I am no expert on strength training but from my time with a personal trainer I learned: don’t work the same muscles 2 days in a row, warm up before you start and increase your weight gradually. Did the gym come with a guide? From knowing you for a more than a year, you will be a pro in no time. Are you excited? You have been having headaches for more than a week. Have you thought about going to the doctor? I hope you feel better today.

My weigh in is 144.4lbs which has stayed the same for about 2 weeks give or take. My steps are 16,287. My water intake was 2liters and I did manage to eat within my deficit.

That’s great you maintained. Looks like you had a great day with steps and eating. How’s your Dad?

Thats impressive that you went out in heat for a bike ride! We are here to support everyone whether the maintain, loss or gain. Never apologize for gaining. Overnight oats is something I have always wanted to try. The receptionist at my physiotherapist office was eating them. It looked really good. I know there is a ton of recipes on Pinterest for it. I know you can do this. You have done so well this year. You have the motivation to succeed on this journey.
