@ashleycarole86 I didn't workout at all this past week as I wasn't well enough and my step count was quite pathetic. However I hope to get a couple of workouts in this week and move more.
Here are my steps for the past week:
19th Dec - 2253
20th Dec - 3622
21st Dec - 2078
22nd Dec - 3622
23rd Dec - 2790
24th Dec - 4782
25th Dec - 3944
Hope everyone had a great day yesterday!3 -
We are amazing! I just finished the tallies, and we hit the top of the charts for Week 3. Well done! Even though not everyone had a great week, as a team, we kept it together pretty danged well. Keep up the great work!5

Merry- day after- Christmas! We had a wonderful time celebrating with the family. I am exhausted but my brother and his family are coming over to watch the Bears/Seahawks game. They are visiting from Seattle and we are huge Bears fans since my husband is from Chicago. I did killer workout on Christmas Eve, which definitely helped with stress/anxiety, but I also pulled something in my booty. I have been stretching. Tomorrow, I will get my nutrition back on track.4

Morning all!
Well after two days of fairly poor eating, including yesterday where I didn't even try to track, I am glad to be getting back to my routines.
We still have a meal out at a friend's house today, but no excuses to eat anything above maintenance.
I would say I still have to work on how I handle the holidays when a large number of family members who are food pushers are around. Having said that, while the food was on offer, no one was giving me a hard time to eat more but myself.
Got a smart watch so I'll be figuring out how that goes and I'll be happy my steps are being counted all the time now vs just when I'm carrying my phone. It actually just alarmed telling me to take a break and move. Lots of little stuff to figure out.

Sorry. I started fine, but by the end of the week I succumbed to the snacks people brought to work. 😳😞
But does the day after Christmas really count? 🤪 😞4 -
Yes indeed - getting back to normal eating will be both a relief and a challenge. It felt good to just eat all the things for a few days, but it's back to mostly veggies for me! There is still some pumpkin custard left (kind of like the pie without the crust), but I think I can fit that in
This week is also Fat2Fit recruiting week! If you have any friends who might be interested in joining our team(s), now's the time. We can always use a few more to fight those statistics with us - keep going past the new year resolutions, keep losing weight, stop gaining it back afterwards.

Hey all! I will be so glad to get rid of all this food. I’m not feeling great from all this indulging. Funny how that doesn’t stop me. We still have cookies and stuff around. I’ve actually made myself some healthy salads between all the indulgent stuff to help me feel better. It makes me feel so sluggish. I feel like I’ve had more sugar this week than I’m the last few months. I need to get back on track to feel myself.
I had a bit of anxiety today thinking about all that lies ahead with a likely big life change. My husband is being so calm about it. I need to trust that things will fall into place the way they were meant to be.
My son got an Oculus today and we played a bit. It can get your heart rate up.
Aiming for a more perfect day tomorrow.5 -

Brace yourself @jugar
82.6
I've had 3x 0.7kg jumps this week, though I've not weighed quite every day, so I'm fairly confident it'll disappear as fast as it came on when the time comes. That time is not this week, though I have definitely consumed (and received) less chocolate than I would normally over Christmas, we've had a few hefty main meals. I am enjoying myself though and not feeling guilty one bit.
@ashleycarole86 sorry for not getting these in yesterday, I hope they're not too late:
Sunday 19th - 3852
Monday 20th - 12291
Tuesday 21st - 6826
Wednesday 22nd - 3620
Thursday 23rd - 14219
Friday 24th - 8361
Saturday 25th - 1777
Saturday doesn't look too bad when considering that I've only done 551 so far today and it's 4.20pm! I've had quite a bit of admin to catch up on though, and have lot track of what day it is so just realised I missed going to feed the ducks at lunch time.
I am up before dawn to train tomorrow (that was not my idea lol), then it sounds like my mother and sister will be visiting, and we have the cinema in the evening, nothing planned Wednesday (more chores/prep for decorating), a day out with friends on Thursday which is cinema, crazy golf and food, then car tyre fitting Friday morning and our usual NYE buffet-for-two in the evening. Saturday, Sunday and Monday are still 'free' but I shall be aiming for a clean slate and 3 perfect days!3 -
I just joined today!
My name is Jenn. I am currently at the heaviest weight I have ever been, reaching into the overweight category. I love fitness and have been working out since I was 18 -- I am 41 now. I spent years as a body builder in my late 20s and early 30s. Now I live a sedentary lifestyle as an English professor. I'm a mom to a young child. I am a food addict and emotional eater, but have had a lot of successes with this in the last ten years, especially. Just wanted to say hey! See you in the January forum.7
