Not such a strong one today - best I can claim for a non-zero is that I dragged my butt onto the elliptical and did enough exercise to close my rings. To be fair, I had teenage visitors all day so couldn’t really jump around in exercise gear, but I could probably have done without the cookies and chocolate I made “for…

@abts1234 Hello! If you reply to the thread it is seen by all, but if you want to direct comments you can type the “@“ symbol then their username and it will tag them personally. If you want to do private messages I think you need to be “friends” with the person. Hope its a good day for you 😊

Hi everyone, today has been a better one, but I did snack on some gingerbread house at work but stuck to my salad for lunch. Some stuff happened in the afternoon and I came home really agitated. Took son to the bakery and had a cake, and was really tempted to binge on all the sugar I could find but completely out of the…

Am loving the creative ways people are “winning” 😁👍. Mine today is a step class and a short strength session for good measure.

@theslightedgeforever Thanks, yep yesterday was better, but could be better still. Great effort with the hamburger. That is how I usually do dinners now - i fill a bowl with salad and put whatever protein the family is having on top of that. I actually really enjoy it and don’t feel bloated after. @trooworld sorry I didn’t…

@Cornanda Howdy - so what was your non-Zero today? I actively avoided the staff room today because there was a birthday morning tea so that’s a win. Also skipped proper dinner because I knew I had eaten quite enough in my “tasting” of the meal while I prepared it. So two wins, but we won’t talk about the cake for afternoon…

@Cornanda I didn’t get step in this week either 🫤. Today started off okay but went a bit awol this afternoon. Not sure what’s going on, I think I’m just simply tired and worn out. I cant drop the ball with family or work stuff, so it’s my personal journey that suffers - I just don’t have the head space or energy to fight.…

NOT a good day. Started off okay - not sure what happened 🫤 Try again tomorrow I guess.

@theslightedgeforever Checking in as ordered😁😂. Yesterday was both busy but lazy - I had kid schedules so lots of sitting doing nothing in between manic periods or last minute organisation. Breaks weren’t long enough to do anything substantial but managed to close all my rings with intermittent exercise. Also did my…

Hi everyone, sorry for the late check in today, been a lazy one and I haven’t had enough water and didn’t do my step class. I’ll make my minimum exercise goals to continue my streak but that’s about all. The last three days have seen medical issues for me and my daughter and to be honest both are playing with my head for…

Hi @senoritafloridita , thanks, today is just a couple of appointments but mostly quiet so I’m hoping for a calm one 😊. How often do your shipments come? Hope you have a great dinner out and get to eat some delicious things 😁

@shaunarlr83 Good morning! No one’s ever online when I am, so just wanted to say a big HELLO from the bottom of the world 😂

Hi all. Did all my ticks yesterday, tracked all my snacks and was over on calories but it’s okay because I had cake with my kids and enjoyed it very much 😁. I have always had a sweet tooth but I’m noticing I really enjoy icing on cakes in a way I didn’t used to. Maybe I’m just savouring and noticing it more. @trooworld…

Hi again, the act of coming here and writing before was all I needed - stopped wallowing, got off my butt, did some sit-ups and figured out how to drink water with a straw. Managed two litres by bedtime and got both my ticks. The downside is I realised I could also eat if I was careful, so have sucked some chocolate and…

Hi all. Success yesterday with water and tracking snacks. Today will probably be low on water because I went to the dentist and dont fancy anything at all in my mouth for a while 😞. Yesterday was an average day emotionally and this morning i had a lapse in concentration that will turn into a costly mistake which I feel so…
-
Morning @trooworld I love how we sometimes have to google what each other is talking about 😁. So glad the drywall is getting sorted. You seem to get migraines pretty often - that must really suck ☹️. Hope today turns out okay. Morning everyone. As you all know, I have been just plodding without focus for a while now. Doing…

Hi everyone, Been a bit of stress these last few days with my middle child so a bit distracted. Haven’t been tracking but took said son out for morning tea and had only a small taste of his sweets and we left the ice cream on the table so that’s a win 😊. Also opted out if the kranskys for dinner and just had the salad…
-
@cornanda. I cant actually remember if I did strength yesterday or not!! The days are just blurring by. Today I’ve done a double workout plus strength. I don’t have set days anymore - kids are finishing up school and routines are totally out the window. I’m still closing my rings every day - am on 112 day streak with that,…

Weekly check in PW: 74.7 CW:73.9 Surprised at the loss but I’ll take it. Yesterday I didn’t get to the strength work - and by “get to” I mean completely forgot 😔. Obviously that has not worked into my habitual routine yet- must figure out how to get it in. How did you all go with exercise yesterday? I’m looking at you…
-
@Katmary71. Thanks for the pep talk - I do need a good kick in the bum right now 👍 I don’t know where my head is. It’s odd that the people in there are actually pretty quiet these days. Usually there are wars going on over what I should and shouldn’t do, but lately it’s been quiet. Funny, I hadn’t really noticed it till…
-
@cornanda Good morning, and yes, I did my exercise and yes the chocolate is all gone 😊. I also talked myself out of dessert and cleaned my teeth and went to bed with a book instead. I could hear DH up and rummaging for something for himself so stayed right away. It wasn’t a perfect day - work temptations got to me, but it…
-
@katmary71 Had a run in with chocolate last night and am generally not being accountable with food. Need accountability so am calling on you to check in on me please - I have been doing my general exercise but not my muscle work (no side crunches for days 😔). Please call me on it! I am promising to myself I will do some…

Had a run-in with chocolate last night ☹️. Not quite sure what happened - just mindless - I wasn’t thinking at all. Am annoyed at myself but today is another day 😊 @troworld Hope the day works out one way or another. Awareness of the issues is great forward planning on your part. @gemwolf Tree looks great!

@theslightedgeforever. Yep wallabies essentially look just like a small kangaroo - about knee height at rest and they can stretch up a bit when alert. Here in Tassie we also have a Pademelon which is smaller again and similar in general appearance but face is kinda different and back legs aren’t as prominent. They are both…

@theslightedgeforever. I really like your list and wholeheartedly endorse personal journaling. Sometimes I can’t figure out what is going on in my head till I start writing - journaling forces you to put it into words and that enables you to make sense of it. Thoughts and emotions just flying round and round bumping into…

Weekly weigh in: PW:74.7 CW:74.7 Hi everyone, pretty okay with staying the same this week. In my mind I have sort of backed off a little - after hitting my first goal I’ve felt a bit like just seeing if I could maintain it I guess. Of course i’d like to keep losing, but have also started thinking about how to realistically…
-
Hi everyone, I’ve been kind of drafting a post for a few days - the gist of it is this: @trooworld Your fat pants comment made me scoff out loud 😁. But it is something I am definitely NOT going to do. It did prompt me to be thinking about how I plan to tackle the holiday season, and made me realise I want this - where I am…
-
@theslightedgeforever yep, got it done 👍After telly time all the kids went to quiet reading so I jumped on and did 20mins which was enough to get me over the line. Rings closed - what a good girl I am 😊. Course, while I was stepping the thought did cross my mind that I would have another hundred and something calories to…

@senoritafloridita. Hi!! 👋👋
