🍃🍂September Daily Weigh-in and Logging Challenge🍂🍃

My name is Kelly. I am 52 and watch my grandkids 5 days a week. I watch 4 of them 5 days a weeks and 6 on Wednesdays so I keep busy with babies all week. They are all 3yrs and under. I weigh weekly. This daily group accountability is awesome! I absolutely love this group.

Goals for September:
Walk for 30 minutes a day 6 days a week
Log all my food daily
Hit at least 10,000 steps 6 days a week
Strength training...what I can tolerate and build from there
Hit my original goal weight of 150

I am going to be transitioning slowly to a maintaining phase of my journey. But I think I do want to get into the mid 140's. So, I want to take this month to lose weight but slow the process down. I will be doing my morning 5 mile walks during the week but I won't push myself to get the same amount of steps each day. I think about 12-15k per day will be good. I will be adding strength training. I have never been good at maintaining so this will be a learning process and I want to slow my weight loss down and gradually get there.

Sep 6: 179 We are refinishing our hallway/pantry floor this week, so emptied the pantry, washed the shelves and painted. Busy day - starting refinishing the floors today. It's surprising how much stuff I had in that pantry closet. My living room is filled with junk! Can't wait for it to be finished so I can put my house back in order. Met my 1,600 mile marker yesterday! 😁

@bittersweetvita Fingers crossed you get a call back! 🤞

Hi everyone, I'm Louise from England. I'm a 47 year old mother of two boys - they've returned to school after the summer break today and so it's time to regroup and focus on my goals! I'm hoping this group can help!

Weight has been an issue for me for a long time - never a huge issue but 25 pounds hanging around that I would be so much better without! And - despite what people say - I would be happier...mainly because I love fashion and the weight inhibits my ability to wear what I like. My happiness isn't dependent on this...but it would be enhanced!

September 22 was the start of a new life for me, having left a successful career and changed to running my own property business. It took a while to adjust and decompress but I eventually realised this was also an opportunity for me to enhance my wellbeing, reduce stress and generally feel a lot more alive! Dog walking was my main focus but in January 23 I joined a gym that focuses on resistance training - it's great. All was going well until this August when a 2 week cruise and subsequent partying messed up my routine. Today marks the start of getting back on track again!

I'm currently a large UK size 14-16. I want to be a solid 12!

September Goals 🍂

OBJECTIVE: To ensure mind, body & soul are fully aligned

BY: sticking to a routine, tracking, exercising, spending time in nature, connecting with loved ones & finding the time each day for creative pursuits.

I know you will do this. We both can.

Sept 04: 59.5kg / 131.2 lbs (this made me smile in the morning, maybe should stick to sweets then, jk)

I love it when that happens. I've found it often will work for one day off plan, but if I try that two days in a row... But I firmly believe we have to have days with some extras in them.

@BittersweetVita Fingers crossed! I hope you hear good news soon.

Welcome, @EllieLou3 - it's a great group, and several of us are newer being here.

Weight in blue makes me blue because it’s a gain. Weight in fuchsia pink makes me feel cheery because it’s a loss. Weight in black means no change.

09/05-192.0-(Trend Weight 194.3)- Another hot humid day here in Michigan. Being surrounded by the largest fresh-water lakes on Earth always brings such humidity! It does feel like Florida again today here. The handymen took the day off due to some doctor appointments they had so I should easily be able to fit in more exercise if the heat doesn’t get to me! Yesterday was a very good day food wise. I got in about 21 minutes on the exercise bike as well late last night. I am zig-zagging my calories and carbs and yesterday was the lowest day planned for this week. I was tempted…..but I kept to my pre-logging plan. I’m glad I did. I’m still striving for those elusive 180’s.

09/06-192.0-(Trend Weight 194.1)- I’m very pleased to see my weight stayed stable. Yesterday was my highest calorie and carb day planned while I’m experimenting with the zig-zagging. Time will tell if it is worth my while. Minimal exercise yesterday. I will try to fit more in today but we are having thunderstorms all day and my handymen are here so we shall see.
