Week 3 Weigh-in Previous weight: 185.3 lbs This week: 185.3 lbs

Feb 19 Tracking Yes Calories Yes Exercise Yes, hit my step goal Spoke to fracture clinic today, 3 weeks of strapping my finger to its buddy, then some physio. So not too bad for healing times as far as breaks go. 3 weeks at maintenance will be a nice little change of pace, and hopefully help me transition to full-time…

I've been to the hospital and got x-rays done, it is broken, but it's a clean break, so strapped back up to its buddy. I have a telephone appointment with the fracture clinic tomorrow, so will find out more about treatment and healing times then. I'm keeping up with the logging, but it's gonna be weird trying to find an…

Thank you! I've taken some codeine that I had left over from when I broke my ankle, and am going to get x-rays tomorrow to find out the extent of the break and about how long it'll take to heal. (I've been seen by medics who set it, and the walk-in clinic who told me to get x-rays tomorrow, I'm not just waiting for funsies…

Oops, unplanned maintenance break for a few weeks... I broke my finger pretty spectacularly today 45 minutes into our first roller derby game of the year! I think I've calculated maintenance calories without 5 hours of skating and 2 hours of lifting a week, so will do my best to maintain while I heal this up!

I felt very similarly, but I booked one session with a Personal Trainer at my gym, to give me an introduction to weights and lifting. It was enough to make me a bit more comfortable trying stuff out by myself as it wasn't so overwhelming going into the weights section and not having a fricken clue. I absolutely love it and…

Tracking Yes Calories Yes Exercise Yes, some body weight exercises as I wasn't in work today (my gym is where I work). I did 10 full push-ups! I've never been able to do one, always fall flat on my face, but figured I would give it a go, and did 10! This strength training is definitely paying off!

The powder you use definitely makes a difference. I've tried 3 or 4 different ones, but the one I stick with is the chocolate SciMx with some powdered peanut butter. It's like fudgey Reese's oatmeal and so yummy! The others just aren't a nice texture.
