Okay, so it’s 6:30pm and I have to burn another 200cals to close my rings. One or two days away from the 100 day streak. Pretty determined, but also have had a couple of glasses of wine which is very unusual - I’m pretty much a non-drinker but just felt like it today. Anyway so am about to have family TV time them bedtime…

Yesterday was a success - finally a breakthrough. Scale showed a gain this week but the way things had been going it had to come eventually. I still feel like I’m on dangerous ground food-wise so hoping to stay focused this week. I have increased the height of my step for workouts and I’m on 97 days of closing all my watch…

Friday Weigh in PW: 73.9 CW: 74.7 Bit of a gain this week. Not a huge surprise but disappointing nonetheless. Feel like I’m heading back towards the right track though, so hopefully a better food week coming. Exercise still going strong - i increased the height of my step for aerobics this week and am at 97 days for…

TODAY IS THE DAY!!! I did a hard workout this morning, sun is shining, day activities with my youngest - NO MORE CRAP!!! 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

Just can’t seem to keep things under control this week 😡😢🫤😒🙄🤦♀️ I have at least made an effort at tracking the past few days and water has been good. Exercise is going strong but food choices are letting me down. *sigh*. Tomorrow is another day.
-
@cbabie Oh wow that is eventful! A restful day definitely sounds in order. Hope it is a great one for you 😊
-
Howdy. Tracked yesterday till mid agftetnoon then gave up Hasn’t been a great start good wise today but I’ve tracked it and my head is happy so that’s a plus 😊.
-
Thanks @trooworld - yep I’ll track at least something today - I promise 👍. I’m also going to drink enough water today. I’ve started reading Red Mars which is the first of a trilogy that DH didn’t really get into. I’ve liked it mostly so far, although I’m in a bit of a tedious descriptive stage right now so I’ve not been…

Monday morning. 5 sleeps till the weekend 😊. Today should be okay though, nothing too stressful planned. It rained all day yesterday which was a lovely excuse to just stay indoors. I did do a step and strength workout but not much else. Water is low and food is okay calories wise but it’s not the most nutritious at the…
-
@trooworld So great to hear you are feeling a bit better. Yep the scale can definitely be fickle but still awesome to see results 😁. Maybe you have subconsciously made changes to what you eat and do that you don’t even notice anymore 👍 My day Thurs was big both physically and emotionally. Walked over 25,000 steps plus a…

Friday Weigh In PW: 74.2 CW: 73.9 Morning all, had two really big exercise days but also a flare up which has made me quite anxious the last few days. Exercise is what’s keeping me stable and is such a positive. Still crave sweets and made two biscuit/icing sandwiches after swimming last night, but at least I didn’t do a…

Howdy. Yesterday was a big day. Weigh in shows a loss which is awesome. But I’m feeling pretty stung out today. Issues flaring with my daughter and I’m anxious about it. Thankfully a mentally busy day today, and am planning a swim later this afternoon. Water is good, exercise is my outlet and saviour, food was way under…
-
@theslightedgeforever Sound alike eating and water are doing great. Starting small is all you need - no zero days 😉. Nice work with the donut and forward planning. @gemwolf110 We hit 28 degrees yesterday (Celsius, sorry don’t know what that is in F). It is really early in the season to be that hot, especially where I am…
-
The slightedgeforever Yep I’m the same, if I have veggies prepared, I’m pretty good at choosing them to eat. Just have to keep on the ball with forward planning. I’m also noticing myself crave savoury/salty more than I used to - has replaced some of my snack cravings in the evening which in a nice change 😊. I’ve been…
-
@katmary71. I did mine today, how bout you ?? 😁
-
Evening all, Good day - combination step and core class this morning, then garden inspiration and 5 hours of labour. Additional bonus i didnt have opportunity to snack so am WAY under cal budget 👍. About to soak in the bath then crash into bed early. @trooworld. Fingers crossed you don’t get worse! Let’s both track…

Hi all, life is good 😊. I’m losing track of days and goals - it’s only been a few since I set them but it feels like ages. Things are good tho. Having lots of genuine quality family time which I’m loving. And food is not a focus, and I’ve baked and cooked but not felt stressed or pressured about it. Am tracking on and off…
-
Bah - I’m losing track of days and ticks - drafted a couple of things but never make it to posting - sorry. Yesterday I did all three - yay me. Day before I didn’t do side bends (just forgot - oops). Today I’ve done bends and water but not tracked. Will try to do it retrospectively later on but that’s not ideal. Will try…

Weekly Weigh In: PW: 74.5 CW: 74.2 Hi all. Plodding along here. Small loss this week, Which was a surprise because it has not been a stellar week food wise. Yesterday and today I tracked everything tho and made my water goal so hoping that is the corner turned. @trooworld I definitely think a proper challenge is ideal for…
-
Morning all. I tracked yesterday. Was over my cal budget but at least I tracked. Also stayed to approved snacks. Still too many, but not so random. Cleaned my teeth early which probably helped. Also made my water goal. Not bad considering it was my day off work and that sometimes leads to sloth-ery ☺️ Today is weigh in so…
-
Morning! I’m up and exercised and checking in with good intentions. Sleeping this week has been in steady decline and last night didn’t get much at all. This always makes me nervous because I’ve had insomnia before and don’t want to start the spiral of dread. Need to sort food and water. Know what to do just not doing it.…
-
Hey everyone. Sorry for my tardiness in making a start, in a bit of a “meh” period here. Still going well with exercise and closed rings on watch every day for Sept and Oct. I’ve also upped my move goal per Watch insistence (@shaunarlr83. 👍👍). That’s about the end of the good news health wise tho. Eating this past…
-
Okay, I am well into self sabotage mode 😒. I know it and it’s almost intentional. But I’m up and am still exercising first thing in the morning - albeit at a slower pace this last week. I don’t “want” to, but I am, so that’s good. Didn’t do step the other day but did do a long elliptical session instead. Focussing on not…
-
Good morning. I grazed yesterday. No real reason for it, I just did. Felt “free” (which is something that came up for me in a podcast this week and I’m still processing). Got into the choc-drops last night too. And didn’t go straight to exercise when I got up. Am dressed in workout gear and planning a proper step class…
-
@theslightedgeforever I really like the analogy of stopping to enjoy the scenery, (or a nice meal along the way 😉) but this week it has felt more like stumbling along down a gravel pathway - not quite “lost” but definitely not on a sealed road either. The analogy made me smile and I’m looking forward to cruising down the…
-
Weigh in PW 74.8 CW 74.5 Yay for a loss. Been a funny week - physically and mentally - a real mixed bag. Was expecting a gain so happy to be where I am. Gives me confidence that when I’m not really as focused as I could be I can still keep things relatively on track. Exercise is still my saviour - still on my movement…
-
I actually lost a couple of hundred grams 🤷♀️. Checked it twice, such a surprise. Today has been good - I planned out my meals while working out and knew they’d be low cause we are having pizza for dinner. Stuck to it so far and no snacks, and was really looking forward to fancy yoghurt for afternoon tea but went to…
-
Okay, so I have drafted a couple of posts on here and journaled a bit, but I’m not going to bother you with it because it’s all just whinging and ranting. I’m doing fine really - exercise streak continues but there will be a gain this week - only question is how much 😏
-
Morning. Just logged my breakfast. Step one ✅. Drank two glasses of water so far. Step two ✅ Exercised ✅. So we’re off to a decent start. Not feeling particularly positive or determined so will see how the day goes.
-
Hi ladies, weird couple of days. Sore today and feeling sorry for myself. Ate badly although volume wasn’t ridiculous - seems I can’t stomach the kilos of sugar I used to be able to consume, which is a silver lining 😊. Nothing serious, but struggling to get back into focus. Exercise is minimal to meet my goals but still…
