I’ve set a goal to be out of the 160s before our cruise in Feb. Vacation is always a good incentive for me. My 2025 goal is to finally reach my UGW. I’m 23 pounds away.

Okay...16 pounds of belly and back fat must go! No more junk...that includes graham crackers! My sweet husband said I can STOP buying them. That means he will stop eating them, too. That works for me!
I must eat healthy! And walk much more than I'm currently walking!!
We are having the kids over tomorrow for dinner. I'll make the new soup and we'll have bread with it. The kids will order dessert. I'll have to put the soup recipe in the MFP calculator and see what I come up with.
I don't want to live in extra large shirts any more!!
We can do whatever we set our minds to do.
Let's do it! Happy 2025, my very good friends!

I’ve set a goal to be out of the 145.0 by my birthday in March. My birthday is always a good incentive for me. My 2025 goal is to finally reach my UGW and stay there. No messing around.

Ladies we seem to have a bit of work cutout for us. I also want to get into the 140's and stay thete. I currently bounce up and down. 149-151
I am still working out regularly. Did take New Year's eve and today off. Needed a break. Chris I will do one of the exercises you posted tomorrow. I need a change.
Floor was measured today for our new carpet. Excited. Took advantage of some New Year sales and bought 2 merino wool long sleeve tops. Bought size large. Medium was tempting, but decided to stick with the large. Both long sleeve. I love my others. Soft and warm.

Yesterday, I had ordered groceries and made soup for today and was going to walk a little. I was going to walk around the school when Pat and Ronan let me know they were going over to our park so Ronan could ride his new weird funny-lay-down on it bike. So I walked around the park while they messed around and Ronan aimed for the mud again and again. I got 1.68 miles in 39 mins done. Funny thing is that it was hard!! I don't know if it was that I'd had gallons of coffee or it was late in the day or what...but I trudged along...trudged. ugh!
Today I did exactly 5.0 miles in 100 mins and the first part of the walk was hard! It took me a long time to get to a 20 minute mile.I decided I needed new shoes and pulled some down, fixed the insides and am ready for my next adventure.
Sara isn't feeling well so just Ronan came over to play with Grandpa today. I sent soup and French Bread with Pat when he p/u Ronan.
The rest of my day is reading and drinking coffee!!
Have a great Thursday ladies!

I did 60 minutes on recumbent bike, arms strength training and abs workout. Following a young lady on the “Gram” who’s doing a January veggie detox for the 4th year in a row. So far the recipes have been pretty good. I’ll see how long I can do this.

Chris I hope changing shoes helps. Must reach your UGW. Hope Sara feels better soon. Walking around a small area is hard in itself.
Kathy post a recipe you like from the veggie detox. I love a great recipe.
Paid bills today. Some of those last minute shopping ones. Of course there are a couple still out there. I did get 2 new 100% merino wool sweaters last night. Love those New Year sales.
Went out with a couple of my friends tonight for dinner. Mainly just wanted to catch up.
I wish you all well in reaching your goals.

Happy New Year to everyone and may your 2025 be blessed!
My new year's wish is for a rested healed warrior spirit. As Chris said many years ago:I've been keeping the couch warm and my diet is totally derailed. But tomorrow is a new day and there's no whiskey left in the cupboard. I don't get plastered, just take the edge off. But sometimes the edge is where the fight comes from.

Busy day. Grocery run and bill pay. 45 mins on recumbent, 2 FitOn walking workouts, arms strength training and core workout.
Paula hang you’ll get your mojo back. You were doing great towards the end of the year. Can’t wait until you get out of the 200s again. You’re so close.
Shelley I will post a recipe soon. She doesn’t post exact recipes but puts up reels showing herself making the dishes. She gives ingredients but not exact measurements which is okay for me because that’s how I cook anyway.

I met with my trainer today for a 60 min workout. I was still a slug and she went easy on me. Maybe it's the weather...
I will walk tomorrow to the Ruins and back. New shoes are ready.
My sweet husband baked me a russet potato tonight. It's been a long time since we've done that. It was good. Only ate half...saving the other half for tomorrow.
Have a great weekend, my friends.
Chris1 -
No walking today. My trainer told me to take it easy and she was right. I feel wonky today. Don't know if I would have made it to the Ruins and back. And now I'm having a hot flash!! ugh.
The kids dropped of Ronan and are taking Collin for a drive to see if he'll nap. I gave him a bear to take with him.
I hope tomorrow is different and I can walk to the post office and back.
Chris1 -
Paula I also can't wait until you get back into onederland. Whiskey, egads so glad you are out. Stuff will steal your mojo. I am excited for you. You are ready to rock and roll.
Kathy my husband cooks like that. I am a lousy cook. Unless it is french toast. You really rocked today. You should be proud.
Chris hope you feel better. My inspiration has been lacking.
Went furniture shopping. What a pain. Finally settled on a small sectional. Will be over 2 months for delivery.

I took it easy today just 60 minutes on recumbent. No strength or weights today. Tomorrow will be a true rest day as I’m going to the Falcons last game with Ron. But I will get in some steps walking from the parking lot to the stadium and back.
Shelley something tells me you don’t like shopping at all. 😀 I’m up at 3:00 am watching tennis. Hopefully team USA will win the United Cup. Coco Gauff won the first match. Now we just need one more. I’m going to be so tired in the morning and have to be at Ron’s by 11:00. His house is closer to the stadium.
