Good morning team. I was really exhausted yesterday, but I managed to clean the house, I did 2 loads of laundry, the dishes, and cleaned the litterbox and waterfountain for my kitty. So I was not really in the mood to do more. I also got groceries so I will be including 'normal' food starting today (Friday). I had a pretty good sleep thankfully. Fridays are a bit rough because I have to get up at 6 for the gym. I have been having some issues with falling asleep lately, but last night was good.3 -

I'm sorry I haven't been very active here. I've felt off track in a lot of areas, so I started picking one thing to focus on per month. I used August to get my sleep back on track and to start going to bed earlier. September is going to be a weight loss focus, but jumping right in and trying to willpower my way through usually doesn't work. Tiny habits and small goals are better for me, so the first week I just focused on logging everything I ate (I haven't done that since we moved several months ago). I've generally kept up with fasting, so this week I'm focusing on staying under my calories goal. Then I concentrate on hitting my macros better.
I'm finally getting my home gym put back together after the move, and getting back in that habit will my my focus for October if my September habits are well established.4 -
3 days in a row now I have worked out, Go Me. hahaha. That is the most consistent I have been since I started the process of buying my house in like March. each day I did about a 1 mile run plus a 45 minute weight lifting workout. although I have only gained like 8lbs, I look like I have gained 15 or so. I lost a few pounds of muscle and gained a few more pounds of fat and it really shows. I can not wait to get my body back to where it was 6 months ago.5

Im not keto and never will be, and I 100% recommend any diet other than Keto, but this is funny

It's Friday! --I forgot to weigh-in 1st thing (am), so I'll have to remember to do it this evening.
Yesterdays steps:
9/9 -5,640
Tip: I find myself looking for ways to up my protein intake without simultaneously increasing too many carbs/fats - i know there's plenty of protein shakes out there, but i don't really find myself "craving/wanting" shakes... However, I recently purchased these Swanson sipping bone broths, that are really tasty (I squeeze some lemon & add a little sea salt). A big + they are super convenient to have on hand.
Love that I can heat one up and take it with me during my lunch walk at work.

@yukie86 If you want to wait and weigh in first thing Sat morning, I would recommend that...weighing late in the day is never good...will watch tomorrow morning for your posting.

Hello everyone! So sorry, my family/personal life has been crazy the past week. We evicted a tenant (who did not go quietly) and all have the flu AGAIN. If it's alright I'll be back next week?4

Good morning team. Friday was gym day again. My legs were a bit tired, but otherwise it went fine. I managed to stay awake the whole day. That's the second time ever since starting the gym over 3 months ago that I did not nap after. It was not easy, but I tried to keep myself entertained, mostly with hiking videos on youtube. The warm weather is finally over. I am so happy to have grey and rainy days. I feel much better when it's colder, and I sleep better too.1 -

Weight is exactly the same which is too bad. I was lower than this only once this week, otherwise it just moved up by like 0.2kg the whole time. If adding in the fruit, muesli, yoghurt and salad does not help with losing weight, I have no clue what else to try to break this plateau.3 -
Hey all. I am having surgery this week to remove the lump they found. I will be down for about two weeks, so pulling myself from steps and stuff until I am healed enough to get around and everything. Pre-op and all that is done as of today and due to covid restrictions I am house locked down with everyone in my house until surgery. Its crazy. But I am willing to do anything not to have to do this in a regular hospital right now because all of them have covid wings and such. Although I am over my brain being poked. Anyways much love to you all, keep fighting hard, and I can't wait to put this all behind me.5

@pupowl They say to help break a plateau, you need to do something to shake things up...change of routine as your body has grown used to what you were doing, so perhaps do something in exercise you don't normally do, drink a little more water, adjust something...you're doing great!

YES!!!!! I am so proud of myself. Just the fact that I was able to maintain weight loss while traveling was big for me. Eating while traveling is super difficult for me. I recently started working with an NP and a dietitian on a bariatric team to help me with my lifestyle changes....so far so good 👍🏽. I'm incorporating exercise back into my life slowly. I've been walking at my favorite park and yesterday I went to my 1st Extreme HipHop Step class...OMG!!! It was fun but it definitely showed me that I need to be drinking WAY more water....and I already drink a good amount.
I'm excited for what's to come. My dietitian gave me a goal of losing 5% of my weight (15lbs) over the next 3-4 months. I'm going to kill it! What do you think? 😁7 -

Good morning team. Not much going on Saturday. Did my workout in the morning. I was feeling really off. Just very weak for some reason, despite eating normally (it felt a bit like low blood sugar/not enough food). I had a big take out meal in the evening, which weirdly made me feel better. I did not enjoy it at all though. I much rather stick to my healthy food. Junk food just doesn't work for me anymore, and I consider that to be a very good thing. I like being able to tick all the boxes on my spreadsheet and see how well I am doing. I think the next time I want a break for the day, I will just buy 1 smaller thing at the grocery store that I am really in the mood for.4 -
Hi team,you are all doing great! @DreaRN15 it's always good to have good advice,5% loss in that timescale is definitely doable,you've got this!! Thank you so much for your kind words @CasandraW & @Pupowl
It is difficult to type with my left pinkie as I'm right handed.Getting dressed & eating is also a challenge.Mind you I am not doing too bad with all the lovely food here in Greece.Just hope I don't gain too many pounds !!
Good luck with the surgery @CharmingPassion wish you a speedy recovery.
