    140 today for me. Still bloated from TOM. Not expecting much of a drop for a week or so.

    I ended up getting a walk in last night after all. Thanks to posting here. It’s those built up muscles making the scale go up right. Hahah.

    @malfar9 Welcome to the group! Looks like you're already making some progress too!
    Thanks! I'm really stuck at my weight these days, but I'm trying to make some changes.

    PT went great @ManifestingToday --- I now have the ok to do some pushups, biceps and Triceps.
    We did push ups yesterday at PT. I had no issues overnight. Today I did some plank burpees and will do a few Bi/tri at noon. Of course using super light weights - as to ease into it so I don't stress out the Arm/shoulder. If all goes well, I can try another set of weights on Saturday or sunday.

    The PT discussed mycase with a leading shoulder expert and his research concluded that having rotator cuff surgery for my case would not be any more beneficial than doing PT. And, that PT would actually be healthier as I would learn about how I can lift, how to do proper form, and ya know, how to make sure I am safe and not causing further injury. I am very encouraged.... even as I use 5# weights today.

    THIS ALSO MEANS that I can use my arm to dangle a 15# weight and do some light Deadlifts and light SLDL's however, I have to work it into only using my arms once every 2 days - so that I know which weights were OKAY and which weights need to be less.

    Yesterday was a fail
    I decided to have my protein ice cream for 3:30pm snack.... and I normally don't eat at all at 3:30.... anyway, tail spin down the hole of "lets buy more junk food" .... picking up myself and going forward. I didn't binge per-se ...more like eating 2000 total calories which - tends to be a maint. number for me that I can handle as long as I am mindful 2-3 days now.

    WHERE I WANT TO GO IS to eat 1500-1700 consistently so that I don't have to do this loop of "oops too much" and then days of "a lot less"

    Nov 6: Workout: cardio - likely lower calories, i tend to swing that way.
    Nov 5: ❌🥊 ❌ Workout : stretching day. Yoga Bryan Kest. 10mins Cardio, Millionaire Hoy.
    Nov 4: 🚂🥊 〽️ Fast : 12hrs - Workout - Ham, glute, quad, calf, quad, glute, core.
    Nov 3: 🚂🥊 〽️ Fast: 12hrs - Workout: Millionaire Hoy.
    Oct 31: 🚂🥊 〽️

    November Goals: The first few days, I will start to do a 12:12 Intermittent fasting - which may go to a shorter window - I want to see if it helps me.

    🚂Tracking my meals
    🥊 Hitting Protein goal of 100+
    〽️ Staying under 1700 calories


    Ultimate goal: down 4#
    Short term goal: To choose more a nutrient dense foods and less UPF's
    and to DO IT because it brings me so much more JOY than I could ever imagine.

    I absolutely do hate the guilt, shame and regret from making bad food choices. I want to use november to REMEMBER how less nutrient dense foods (Ultra Processed Foods, aka UPFs) makes me feel emotionally spent and physically spent.

    In Oct. I was able to meet my Calorie goal and stay UNDER 66% of the time. I had 10 days where I was OVER. For November, I am setting the goal to be 71% of the time. (I'm just pulling a number out of the hat.)

    Hey friends, checking in.
    Accountability.... I've been able to stick to including fruit or veggies with every meal since Monday. (Go me!) No walk Monday or Tuesday (Booooo....) but got it in today (Yay!)
    Goal continues to be fruits and veggies + daily walk this week. Trying to build better habits sustainably, so I expect slow progress...
    I'm not a daily weigh in because I tend to fixate when I do. So to be kind to myself, I'll only weigh in on Mondays.
    Feeling inspired by y'all. Keep that good s*** up. 🌞

    I ate my feelings last night. lol some left overs of comfort food I made at the weekend. Ended up having two bowls of a salty pasta and some Halloween candy. Not surprised to see the scale go up.

    The plague still has our house on lockdown. (That’s dramatics. After 2020 it’s hard to realize my sarcasm. Kids and hubby have a head cold that I had at the weekend. It’s a good one and all three are down for the count on their 4th day. That I kicked it in two has me secretly feeling pretty good about myself.) So I’ll scurry off to work and then come home and put the house back to rights and lift the spirits.

    But I’ll also go for a walk today. And now I have to because I told you all I will. Hahah. I’ll come back and edit this if I do.

    Hope you all have a great day!

    Ok hooray the scale has settled back to October levels. Now the real work of November begins. More planning, logging, and all the other good habits I’ve established since joining this group a few months back. We can do this 🙌🏻💪🏻🙌🏻

    I think I was quite stressed for the past two days with everything going in our world but feeling more level set now. Not here to talk about that at all. But I needed (wanted) an outlet and ate a couple of salty snacks late night with a glass of wine while watching the new documentary on Martha Stewart. The bummer was I was perfectly satisfied with my super healthy dinner of unstuffed beef and cabbage roll stew over riced cauliflower. Thankfully, today is a new day!

    @gretadevelle good for you signing up to try kickboxing! I hear it’s a great calorie burner and endorphin enhancer.

    @HappyDonky75 you are doing great and are still down! I know what you mean about sore. I usually kick down my routine or skip a day for more recovery time between workout sessions.

    It’s great to see so much progress for many of you, in only a week!

    I’m proud of myself for using my gym again after a long summer and early fall of not much. Especially when I am paying good money for it!

    So I worked out more than usual this week - a Barre class on Tuesday, a Zumba class yesterday and now I am heading to a circuit training class at the gym now. They are all very different and I think I’d like to repeat the rotation again next week.

    The one thing I did notice is my hunger cues were up last night lol. But that doesn’t mean I need to act on them! Had some gummy bears I found and Japanese rice crackers. Would be better off with a piece of wheat toast or other ‘food.’

    This month I have upped my fruit and vegetable intake each day so that is good.
