Hi everyone,
I wanted to share the workout app that I use. I was struggling to find a strength training program to follow and my dad showed me this. I've been using it for more than a year now, you set it up with the equipment you have and the goals you are working towards.
My overall fitness has improved a lot, my knee very rarely gives me any issues now. I'm so much stronger and have less body pain and stiffness. I just need to keep my nutrition as consistent as my work outs and I'd be golden.

I had a very emotional weekend. I didn't make the best choices that I could have and I know that I could have done better. I meal prepped my lunch for the week and I am making better choices. Here is to a new week!8 -

Happy to be down a pound since I have not been very rigid with my calorie goals, but excited to have hit more than 6 months of daily logging this week! Hope everyone has had a great week.
Ps. not sure if there are any Jacksonville people around, but Go Jags! All this excitement and celebration is not helping my diet goals!8 -
Congrats @brttny7979 on logging daily for 6+ months!!! WOOHOO! Now THAT'S a great NSV (non-scale victory!! WTG! Nice loss this week too!
@trappedskinnyb Good job on meal prepping!! It's always good to have a plan! Nice loss this week too!

⭐️Daily Check-In⭐️
Had another good day food wise (probably because I have a bit of a sore throat, and didn't feel up to eating much). Unfortunately I left my Fitbit at my parents house earlier, but I’ll report the steps recorded in the app so far, and will pick it up tomorrow.

Good morning Shape Shifters. I had a pretty uneventful day. Planned to clean some, but wasn't feeling it. I will just do everything that is left today. I wrote and posted three postcards for postcrossing; they are going to the USA, Japan and Germany. Did more of the usual and my workout in the evening. Happy Tuesday everyone7 -

Sorry I've been MIA these last weeks as I was incredibly sick.
I got sick on Halloween and it lasted 8 weeks. I started smelling this horrible smell all the time and thought it was me. I started losing my mind. Come to find out I was smelling the infection in my body. I was almost septic and was on antibiotics, steroids and was a mess.
My kids (3 years old and 9 months old) ended up getting sick and then sick again the day before Christmas Eve.
2 weeks ago I started having chest pain and difficultly breathing and I started getting light headed when doing anything sort of activities. I've been basically sedentary for months. 🙄😭 So we have had a pretty miserable last few months and I just didn't have it in me to keep up with weight loss. Today is honestly the first time I've stepped on my scale since November.
If I can rejoin, Saturdays will be my Weigh in day and my starting weight is 236.9. I have no idea what my previous weight was.
@ewilhelm2487 My goodness you've been through the storm, haven't you?!! So glad you're better now! I've sent a message to the MODS to move you back to active. Give us a bit to get it done and thanks for including all the info I needed for the request! I'm sorry that your holidays were all tied up in this. I went through a similar infection (septic) in the hospital a few years ago and nearly died...thought it was something else and it was an infective mass that had ruptured...horrible experience. So glad you're ok. What did they say about the chest pain and breathing issues? Was that tied to the same infection or something else? Anyway...SO glad to hear you're getting better and you'll be stronger and back to normal in no time, I have no doubt! Make sure you resume activity slowly though...so as not to injure yourself! Welcome back!
Jessica
I haven't seen anyone about the pain in my chest as it went away but I think the weather has a lot to do with it. I live in Michigan where it goes from 60° to -22° to 40° in a matter of days and every time the weather gets funky, I feel like crap. I know my allergies play a big part in my breathing issues so I try to stay indoors during this time of year. Thank you for asking!!3 -

It seems when I try and start logging things in MFP the children all get ill and I put the diet and logging on hold "until they are better" but not this time. The exercise has suffered a little. I am looking forward to the big two heading back to school. Hopefully before week is over. I can concentrate a little more on my journey then.5 -

Sorry I've been out of pocket. I am taking a rotational assignment at work and I've been busy the past two weeks trying to hand off my current workload. Same company, just Admin instead of IT.
Dry January is going well for me and based on the weight loss, I think I will continue after the end of January.5 -
💟Daily Check-in💟
I stepped on the scales this morning for a quick peek and was pleasantly surprised to see -2.6 lbs since Friday!
◼️@jessicakrall8 could you please remove me from the steps challenge until further notice? I haven’t been walking outdoors very much recently and would rather do the challenge when I’m more active. Sorry to be a pain! Thank you.3 -
Step check in:
1/7 13,183
1/8 10,558 (+30 mins indoor rowing, no steps counted)
1/9 15,115 (+20 mins rowing)
@jessicakrall8 for the chart name, I'd be more comfortable to use pedal__power if that's okay. Thanks for your efforts on this and your encouragement! I'm definitely trying to get in more steps because of this challenge.2 -

Three more days of 10k+ steps and I'll take a break. I had trouble today because it was raining so much. I started a walk during a break in the weather, but I only got one third of a mile into it before it started to sprinkle. I turned around and had to jog back to my car as the rain picked up. So, I went to the mall to walk indoors. Problem there is, the GPS doesn't work, and it seems to have a problem judging distance. I walked for 44 minutes (which included a brief wait at Starbucks), yet it only gave me one mile for that. Should have been closer to two. Oh well.

Good morning Shape Shifters. Another boring day. I mostly did some cleaning. I also dug up a patch in the garden. I feed the birds a lot, but with wet weather it can get gross. Now there was some weird black mouldy stuff growing, so I decided to just remove it by digging out the top layer. Guess that was a tiny workout as well. I wasn't feeling too great during the day because of a pretty bad headache. It was just getting worse in the evening with staring at the pc screen, so I went to bed really early to read some in my new book. I was asleep around 20:00. I had a lot of bad dreams in the second half of the night which wasn't fun. My mom will be here today, so my updates might be a bit shorter until I can catch up properly. Happy Wednesday everyone3 -

Like many others I find it hard to get my steps in during January. We’ve been unseasonably warm so far this month but it’s still cold and gets dark early. I live I’m a rural area where there are not any street lights.4 -

Not sure what's going on, I've been pretty sore and working hard so took a break today and did yoga this morning-next week will be better5
