    @justagirl81 Looks like you went on a long hike - I hope the scenery is beautiful on your hikes. I typically walk a trail that is around a man made lake and its just around 2.25 miles.



    Sherry, I love nature, God created so much beautiful scenery for us, right? <3 Glad to see you doing so well with your goals girlfriend!

    @justagirl81 thanks.
    Started to listen to Proverbs. Started with chapter 21. rewound and listened to chapter 20 as well. My church/Bible Study mentioned it - and while i have done this in the past, its been a hot second. So, I started to do it thru my bible app.

    Today's take away:
    Proverbs 20:13 "Do not love sleep or you will grow poor; Stay awake and you will have food to spare."
    -Reminds me that we need to Get up and get busy.... Working out vs sleep. ALSO, reminds me of my son who seemingly is 'unable to hold a job' (disgusts me to no end).... and he has grown poor.

    I love the verse:
    "Better to live on the corner of a house than to share a house with a quarrelsome wife." PV21:9

    ** Need to keep up the trend of being UNDER calories.

    I am feeling slimmer though. Case in point, my ring on my right hand fits my middle finger on both hands. My wedding ring on my left hand, is really close to fitting the middle finger also! these are both huge indicators that I am doing something right. Took a waist measurement on Monday morning and I swear its down 1/2" or so.

    Update:

    Ive been feeling good about my weight! I ranged 142-145 throughout the last couple weeks which looks good, but time to firm up. I started the Iron series by CG! Mega burn. Loved it.

    Leg day felt good. no issues with the arm - of course I tried to maintain a lighter weight and better form - which should ALWAYS be the goal. TOmorrow, cardio and Mobility. that will feel good.

    Nutrition has been feeling on point. Also feeling like I've lost a little. Kinda excited for a weigh in on the 28/29/30 Have not decided when.

    CG is a mean little girl. Yeah, I have been playing with adding on 2-3 moves of hers (today did some of the EPIC Day 31 Legs, hip thrusts, lunges, squats. She is intense. Nice on being in the right weight / scale range. THAT always feels so mentally freeing.

    Brief summary from a portion of a book I'm reading....
    To create good habits
    The 1st Law (about the Cue) is to make it obvious.
    The 2nd Law (about the Craving) is to make it attractive.
    The 3rd Law (about the Response) is to make it easy.
    The 4th Law (about the Reward) is to make it satisfying.

    To break a bad habit
    The 1st Law (about the Cue) is to make it invisible.
    The 2nd Law (about the Craving) is to make it unattractive.
    The 3rd Law (about the Response) is to make it difficult.
    The 4th Law (about the Reward) is to make it unsatisfying.

    Enjoying reading everyone's successes here! I am stuck. Not really gaining, but also not losing.
    And I definitely know why. I've been slipping back into old eating habits, and slipping workouts more often.
    Ive been in this rut for over a month, so I really need to figure out how to get myself back on track.
    I always start the day off with great goals, but then by the end of the work day it all goes out the window and I start snacking.

    So now I just need to get inspired by all of you and get myself back on track too!

    @ScienceofTeaching - Snacking in my opinion is always the key.

    I should post that on my fridge.

    I agree...make it easy. LIKE when you are trying to get out of debt, pay off the smallest debt first.
    then snowball that into the second smallest debt to pay off.

    take a small change. something that is easy - conquer that. (me giving up packets of sweetner)
    then find another small change - conquer that. (adding more fruits and veggies - which replaced some sweets).


    To make my sugar habit "invisible, unattractive, difficult" I have tried to make the rule that I do not go to the coffee station at work. (I sorta have to walk by it enroute to my desk...or do I ??? because there is another path I could take that would avoid it. That would make the "sugar/sweets" area more invisible.

    I find the sugar habit disgusting. I mean, WHO in the HELL eats SUGAR... Plain? WHO AM I? so I really don't do this a LOT anymore. I've really almost have this down to zero. IF I'm being honest, maybe 1x every 10 days. To make it more Invisible, difficult, I will use the other route to my desk. I already find it unsatisfying and unattractive. I find that sugar and sweets STEAL my joy. Make me sad and depressed. ITs taken me a while to realize this. Because it does "In the moment" make me feel happy. But, that is deflated shortly after. I think THINK I am on the edge of giving up 90% of all sugar in my life. cake, ice cream, protein bars, the whole bit. Because one leads to another. and another. and another. Fruit and veggies and whole foods don't do that. ANd my health is better (should be better) if I am more whole foods based and less sweets/snacks based.

    This all means Im still doing maint. and NOT doing a deficit.
    I keep trying.... The mental F** It keeps kicking in though.
    Trying today for a 5 day streak of green checkmarks. Revisited food plan/menu ideas. Perhaps I was just in a funk because I didn't have foods that sounded entertaining to me.

    IF I can stay with green checkmarks, then I will weigh in on the 30th or May 1st. No point in weighing in if they are all red x's.

    Hello Everyone. Been crazy busy and stressed. Last 1-2 weeks full of eldercare appts - and they always makes me nervous. I have a big birthday in June so I’m marking today (yesterday was the last major appt but more to come) as my restart date. I’m getting sick of hearing myself talk and giving myself the side-eye. So - action action action. So far so good today. Starting CG Iron for like the 5th round on Monday and did some Les Mills Combat today and will again tomorrow. Can’t get enough of those for some reason. Hope everyone is well!

    Relapsed. Terrible binge last night; felt bloated all day. My body is meant to be used as a vessel of love, grace, and kindness to help others. I will get rest tonight and patiently fuel my body small amounts as needed from here forward. Movement, oxygen, water, forgiveness and love are staples.

    Goals:
    1. Read entire Bible in order starting w/ New Testament 1 chapter/day. (John 17)
    2. Reach 104.0 lbs by 4/30/24

    Hello Everyone. Been crazy busy and stressed. Last 1-2 weeks full of eldercare appts - and they always makes me nervous. I have a big birthday in June so I’m marking today (yesterday was the last major appt but more to come) as my restart date. I’m getting sick of hearing myself talk and giving myself the side-eye. So - action action action. So far so good today. Starting CG Iron for like the 5th round on Monday and did some Les Mills Combat today and will again tomorrow. Can’t get enough of those for some reason. Hope everyone is well!

    Oh my…. If we lived next door that would be me too. I love the Les Mills Combat. I do the 60min one (that’s actually 45 mins?? ) on repeat. Love them! I’m marking today as my day 1 also. What calorie range do u do? 1300 if I rememer right? I need to so 1500-1700 other wise I’m not sticking to it. I’m also going to attempt no sweets. Sugar. Like my bread has some but- not that type of ridiculous counting. I’m meaning cookies and the like. Here we go!!! I have a June beach event I’m working on and to look sexy for ME.

    @SherryRueter - my faves are Les Mills Power Kata - the 45 min one I did today and the 33 min Power HIIT (kills me)!

    I actually only see results when I stick to no more than 1200, little processed food, 10k steps and lots of water. I feel stuffed and bloated - way way too much sugar but the last two days I’ve been on point. Warm weather today is serving as a wake up. Summers’ a’comin!🥺

    @ceebeeslim I have the whole set also. Haven’t tried that 33min one in forever. I’ll add it this week!

    I nailed today nutritionally. Feels so much better than the past 3-4 days. Makes me curious - if I stick (as I stick with) this for the next 5 days…. What will my month end weight be? Have I made any progress??? Getting curious.

    We’ve got this ladies!!!!!
