@lauren_989 You're so lucky! Asheville is where my soul belongs! One day I'll make it there, but right now I'm stuck in the hell that is Montana. We're looking at -20...-40 with windchill :| I'm sure our Canadians feel my pain, although the puppy loves it and gets snow zoomies :D

I hopped on the scale this morning. It's funny how being closer to fasting helps. I DID get on yesterday and weighed in at 147...but that was after coffee/breakfast. This morning I only had my protein drink so we'll go with this number :D PW: 144.2 CW: 144.8 The damage wasn't as bad as I thought after my hubs got me a…

Hey all! So sorry I missed last week, it was CRAZY! I got recruited to become the dietitian for the local care center so I've got that added to my plate...I did a wellness thing for the schools, and there's just so much more. I didn't get a chance to weigh last week and I'll try to get my weight later today or tomorrow…

Ok, so I'm really starting to think heavily on this whole set point theory :| PW: 143 CW: 144.2 I haven't been able to dip under 140 since last July, but you know what, I'm not fretting too much, especially since I've noticed more definition and more muscle mass in my upper body (I admittedly love upper body days and don't…

@PlaneMonkey I'm a bit of a crazy cat lady (5 indoors and I take care of....quite a few outside). You should check out [url="http://"]https://thekittytube.com/[/url] . We bought two of these for the strays outside (we got them with extra insulation and the heating pads) since it gets chilly here as well. They absolutely…

Hey @bobagurl2017 , me, @PlaneMonkey , and @ashleycarole86 I think all have Garmins as well :) Here's my profile link if you want to add! I'd be happy to connect! https://connect.garmin.com/modern/profile/1ffa5928-5ee1-4ac5-a2cf-30260558c0a6 Admittedly, I probably fall short of most of you with steps, but I like to think I…

Happy....almost February! PW: 145.6 CW: 143.2 Quick Intro for the new month: My name is Ashley and I'm an Ohioan who has transplanted to just outside of Glacier NP (in Montana). I'm a Registered Dietitian for the Blackfeet tribe, a 500hr yoga teacher, and through an IHS pilot program, am about to start at "Legacy Holistic…

Happy new week all! PW: 145.6 CW: 145.6 Last week I start making it a point to fit in at least 20-25 mins of asana daily (in addition to my lifting) and 40-45 on the weekends. The Habit tracker made me realize just how rough weekends are for me. @PlaneMonkey , my hubs sounds very similar to yours. He wants me to dictate…

I'd say happy Monday....but then I realized it's Tuesday :D (We had off for MLK so I have a short week) PW: 146 CW: 145.6 It's so funny how much weight can fluctuate in one day. Two days after my 146, I was 143.6. A few hours later (after I drank water and worked out), I was 147! I really need to do measurements as well.…

@DD265 Hey! Let me know how you like using that app. I'm always looking for more tools to provide for my patients as well. I have a list of apps I recommend to try to make it easy for people, but we're sort of in the stone age up here and most of those recommendations fall on deaf ears. I'd love if you share anything your…
-
Okie dokie....so I'm trending in the wrong direction, but I'm honestly not too concerned. My lifts have gradually been getting heavier and I started a new lifting routine and let me tell you...incline & decline bench presses will have you feeling all sorts of things if you're used to doing regular flat ones. I'm glad I…

Hey all! Sorry I missed my re-introduction earlier, but I started the new year with an electronics ban so now I'm playing catch up. Anyways - I'm Ashley and I'm originally from Ohio but now live in NW Montana just outside of Glacier National Park. I'm a full time registered dietitian and public health nutritionist along…

Better late than never PW: 143.6 CW: 143.2 I've been feeling so uninspired lately so we'll see if I can restructure everything get back into the swing of things
-
Hey All! Sorry I missed last week...my boys are still back home (in Ohio), so I've been holding down the fort on my own. Even though I've been eating really clean (it's amazing when you don't have someone constantly demanding snacks), but I reeeaalllly upped the protein to go along with my heavier lifting. My weight hasn't…

Sorry I forgot earlier this week but I was up a smidge PW: 142.2 CW: 143

So I'm up a bit this week, but that's to be expected. I've been retaining since about last Thursday, although I've kind of kept it to a minimum PW: 141.6 CW: 142.2 My boys are traveling, so I've been baking up a storm and bringing everything to work. Sometimes I hardly eat any of what I've made, but then there have been…

Happy Monday all! It's amazing - my boys left last Tuesday, so my eating was a bit different than usual last week... PW: 143.2 CW: 141.6 (-1.6) I ended up going to the ENT on Thursday and was told that my septum is deviated, but he wants me to try prescription strength flonase for a while before we talk surgery. Right…

Sorry I missed last week! I did weigh in... PW: 144 CW: 143.2 (-0.8) We've been getting my guys ready for the long trek back to Ohio, so I've been trip planning, meal planning, shopping, and generally trying to remind my husband to STOP PROCRASTINATING. I'm not sure exactly how long they'll be gone, but I assume around a…

Happy Monday all! So last week from weds-sat, me and my department traveled out of town for the Montana Diabetes Conference. Let's just say we ate well while away from home (because it's such a rarity) and I'm pretty sure I found the one good restaurant in Montana. It was this Italian place that was worth the splurge (and…
-
So I checked my weight last week but totally forget to log it on here (I put it in my Garmin) Last week: 140 This week: 139.6 I've been good about working out regularly. My lifts are getting heavier and I've been able to stick to a relatively regular yoga routine at 2-3x/wk. It's not daily, which I'd prefer, but beggars…

Good Morning! I'm going to have to catch up on everyone's posts when I get a minute - but I'll give my quick update. First off - the Redwoods were AMAZING. If you guys haven't been there, I can't recommend it enough. You can see photos, but until you stand beneath one, you don't fully grasp their immensity. My boys had to…
-
Alrighty, heading in the right direction despite a few hiccups PW: 142.4 CW: 140.0 (-2.4) I won't be able to weigh in next week because I'll be leaving for the Redwoods on Monday and won't be back until Saturday. Hopefully the pre-wedding nerves won't make me want to eat everything in sight :D And I'm hoping that all the…

Up a bit more this week PW: 141.6 CW: 142.4 September is bringing a better mindset. It always does. I swear that August is just my yearly burnout month. I've been evaluating what I want to do workout wise. I think I may take this month to focus on HIIT and Yoga with a bit of walking and biking in order to mix it up. Maybe…
-
@jugar Thanks for the encouragement! I think my problem is trying to do too much during the day (workday specifically) and then handle all my home responsibilities in the evening that I just get exhausted without realizing it. I do usually bounce back in September, but I need to draft a solid plan by the end of the week.…
-
Hello All! Sooooooo sorry I've been slacking. I swear it hasn't been intentional. This has been a weird month for me and I got way off my normal routine, so when I'd remember to weigh in and get on here, it's not when I'm ACTUALLY able to, so then I forget and well, the rest is history! Anywhoo...August has historically…
-
So I don't even know what happened the past two weeks! I kept meaning to check in and then I guess my ADD got the better of me :D Anways PW: 138.8 (I think) CW: 139.9 I've been so slacky in my workouts but I gotta get back on the wagon. I've noticed just how sensitive my body is to being sedentary at all, so I think I'm…
-
Good Morning all! So guess from last week to now...my overall change is nil PW: 139.4 CW: 139.4 Honestly - I'm not even mad because my SO made me a carrot cake for my bday (with 1.5c of oil and full fat cream cheese for the frosting) and I may have had 3 pieces yesterday (and a piece for breakfast this morning). Sooooo I…

@Kali225 Woot on the apartment! That's gotta be such a relief to have that taken care of! Also - I weighed in again for S&G and I'm down to 137.6. I haven't done daily weights since grad school and even in the nutrition community we're torn about it, but eh, I'll give it another go (it was actually really beneficial for me…
-
So - I weighed in again today since I have my real deal meeting and I'm down some more...don't know if you wanna count it as legit or a fluke, but I thought I'd share. 7/10: 139.4 7/11: 138.6 @Kali225 Awesome loss!! Do you have something specific for your dance choreography or do you just improv it? It sounds like so much…

Good Morning all! So sorry I didn't check in last week. I was slammed with stuff that kept me out of the office including youth day and the health run. However, I did get my weights... 7/4/22 140.2 (stayed the same from the previous week) 7/11/22 139.4 (-.8) This feels like the first full week in a while! I'll actually be…
