    Hey yall! Love some good round numbers.. especially since my lucky number is 4, my weight was 444, and I lost an even 4 lbs. Doesn't get any better than that. Pretty good week over here- Got the courage to post some before/current pictures (still feel like I'm going to puke and want to delete them), got my steps back up to where they should be now that my foot is back to solid, got my medal yesterday for last weeks 5k.. I can't complain. Still a few weeks of holidays left though - pray for me lol

    Much love yall

    Amazing Nacho ... So very proud of you and your accomplishments ... You are awesome :)

    @NachDeezy You are doing great! You got this!
    I am embracing the idea of really focusing on strength training. Especially the core. I keep running across information of how important core strength is to functional movements. I know this but it is easier to ignore it than do. So I am getting my mindset changed and going for it. There! Now I have put it out there. Now I just need to follow through. :smile:

    No idea how that happened as i ate more and exercised less this week than i have for 3 months! But then i always think my weight loss/ gain is a week behind my behaviour!!
    Only 1.5lb to my goal and i know i will get there before the end of the year!

    Amazing loss for the week! Looks like you will be hitting a new decade before 2024. I remember the first time I posted before/after photos I felt the same way. Would you be able to post them here in the group? We are all so proud of you. You are a great cheerleader to the rest of the group and we appreciate that.

    Very nice loss! You will definitely get to goal by the end of the year. It’s weird how our bodies do that.

    Are you getting much time off during Christmas? You certainly deserve it.

    Again, I do not recommend losing weight like this. I am not eating enough. I am surprised I am not down more. The nausea is making me angry as I really love eating.

    Have a great Friday! The weekend is here.

    Neither happy or sad with change in weight this week.
    I've been focusing on using the gym at our apartment and planning for a January Kickoff...with sensible, realistic and SMART goals!

    Today makes 7 days straight of exercising (20 to 30 minutes of weight lifting and 20 to 30 minutes of bike and/or treadmill). Then by January 3 - I need to add core strengthening to the routine and I will be whole (as far as exercise goes)

    Late answer to fitness routine question:
    On other board - a lady talked about swinging kettlebells and had a major transformation with them. I had some sitting around (now they are in storage) but I'd like to give this routine a try.

    Now to work on my eating plan. I know I need low carb. Leaning heavily towards IF (16:8) and low carb eating and trying to incorporate more veggie meals.

    @iLive2Walk Those are some amazing steps! It's hard to get the steps in when you're working. I look forward to retirement!
