Daily post Wednesday Tracked: Yes Calories: under Exercise: yes

Wow!!! Great Weigh-in! Congrats!

Daily Post Tuesday Tracked: Yes Calories: Yes Exercise: Yep - water aerobics day. Tried a new harder water workout, it was fun. But I have been warned my arms will likely hurt tomorrow. I am looking forward to it. Lol, I am becoming so weird.

I am so glad you chose to take care of yourself. You are worth cooking for. I get the low mood part. I have been there myself. Keep on the good trail. You are very worth it, your health and happiness is worth it too. I hope your back feels better tomorrow with gym exercise.

Daily Post Monday Oct 8th Tracked: Yes Calories: under Exercise: Yes - workout video at home Day went well. Nothing exciting because I was pretty busy. But got all the components in for a healthy lifestyle.

Weekly Weigh-in October week 2 Username: momma3times Previous Weight: 245.6 Current Weight: 245.4 Stayed within calories this week. But struggled with type of foods and broke my IF schedule. Goes to show that with PCOS and insulin resistance, a calorie is not just a calorie. Hopefully I can get a better drop next week.

Daily Post Sun Oct 7th Tracked: yes Calories: under Exercise: Yes Did a Leslie Sansone 3 mile exercise from YouTube after our hiking plans went bust. Still got my steps in, burned about 380 calories in just over 40 mins.

Daily post Saturday Oct 6th Tracking: Yes Calories: under - technically. Exercise: yep. Family Corn maze day. An hour and a half of getting lost in our favorite annual tradition. The maze is cut into 12 pieces. They give you a blank map and you have to find a camouflage mailbox in each section. Then after you find all 12…

Daily Post Friday Tracked : Yes Calories: under by about 15 calories Exercise: yes - water aerobics and mental battle with my newly hormonal 11 year old, not sure which one made me more exhausted.

That stinks about your back. I hope it feels better soon. But good job keeping on track while healing. That can be difficult!

This made me laugh a long time. I then had to explain to my hubs, he found it hysterical too. Thanks for the laugh.

Yep! They never mention it!!!! So frustrating.

Daily Post Thurs Oct 4th Tracked: yes Calories: under Exercise: Yep - quite a bit I already typed this once and hit the wrong button and it deleted. So I try again. Got up at 5:15 and instead of being lazy, I did a YouTube of Leslie Sansones home walking. It helped me get all my daily goal of steps in before 7:15am. That…

Daily Post Wednesday Tracked: Yes Calories: under dramatically Exercise: yes Exercise was my usual water aerobics. And, then some medicine ball exercises at home for my core. I did almost OMAD today because I ran out of time. I had lunch, then took a coffee with just cream to the Y with me a couple hours later when my kids…

Are we sharing a mother? Seriously I have to do often maintenance calls to see if my mom is on track. She had started weight watchers again a couple months ago, which is good for her. But she refuses to give up a couple things that sabotage her entire day and make it hard to stay on track. I get that we can't change…

I like Talk Dirty by Jason Derulo. It is kind of a stupid song. But it has a great tune to keep the pace.

What height did you start at? I have never done these before, but think I might want to try. I seem to be up to new challenges lately.

Daily Post Tuesday Tracked: yes Calories: under Exercise: Yes, water aerobics. I wasn't teaching today, but ended up helping an older couple modify the activity for their safety. It feels great to be able to promote fitness to others.

OMAD is so hard. I applaud you! You got this!

[/quote] Go buy a tester and check the water where you teach water aerobics. Low ph can cause skin irritations. When the ph is low, chlorine and other disinfectants make it possible for dangerous bacteria to survive. Most public pools have people that have no idea how to balance a pool nor care. I have my own pool and it's…

Daily Post Monday Tracked - yes Calories - NO! - First time over in a looooong time. This was a planned maintenance day. Exercise - Nope. Had a doctors appt, then was sitting almost all day while doing school with my kids. But I went into today knowing that. I am going to try and add in a maintenance day occasionally. I…

Hello! This is my 3rd month on the challenge. It has been awesome for keeping me on track. I am a mostly at home mom of 3 kids. I just recently got a job teaching water aerobics a couple times a week. This is a big part of my long-term success goals. I have been able to lose 40lbs a few times. But in the past, I always…

Ended up having a more than mild, less than severe food allergy reaction last night after dinner. I had hives all over my body. They gave me a shot to stop the reaction and I am feeling much better. While I am not concerned with what the effect is on my weight lose, I am curious to how injected steroids affect your body.…

Daily post Sept 26 Tracked: Yes Under: Yes Exercise: Yes, water aerobics and practicing swimming to the bottom of the deep end. Slightly considering going through lifeguard training in the next 6 months. Needed to see if I could do it.

I struggle getting 100 oz of water in. You are doing awesome. What types of surgeries do you work with? I always expected working in OR to be stressful.

This morning I hit 50lbs down! Then, I ended up doing my first 24hr fast! After messing up my calories at lunchtime yesterday, I shut down my window for the day. So today when I normally eat at 12, I decided to push it another hour to make it to 24! I made it through, but I have a headache. I am usually right on top of my…

Tuesday sept 25th Tracked : yes Under: yes - barely Exercise - yes, water aerobics I had a crappy day. I was on the run when my fasting window opened and I was starving, so I grabbed something out. Totally misjudged the calories and left zero for dinner. ZeRO! So my eating window ended early today. But lesson learned.…

Daily post Sunday 23rd Tracking: Yes Under: Yes Exercise: No We celebrated my daughters birthday yesterday. I cooked what most families consider Thanksgiving dinner at her request. So no time to exercise. But we had a great family day. I stayed within my calories thanks to IF and a double portion of green beans to help…
