Hello all, I’m working on getting to goal. I have about 25-30 pounds to go. I had lost some weight a few years ago, I never made it to goal then and regained. Now I’m feeling good and have added exercise that I really enjoy but my food has slipped and I’ve been over calories the last couple weekends. I have made a goal of…

Hi all. Been overindulging in my baking, my kids aren’t eating the cookies up fast enough. Tomorrow I will be back at it.

Thanks for the encouragement pals. You are all so giving. 🥰 I just finished catching up on posts...so many awesome accomplishments. I have good news to report and I did get weightlifting in every other day during the past week. Hoping this week is just as successful! Wherever you may be, I hope this upcoming week keeps you…

Weigh in for going ape Weigh in day Saturday Last weigh in - 151 This weeks weigh in - 150 Loss of one pound Total loss to date 69.4 Not too bad. I’ve been baking cookies today so I’m sure I will be up tomorrow. My new oven came in and I’m loving it. It’s a warm and cozy kind of day.

Hi all, checking in. I still have work to do on my every other day weights plan. I will continue to work on improving.

Hi all, I’m glad to see everyone’s check-ins. I’ve been @lennoncpa we bought a portable mini fireplace for our basement and I’m loving it. It’s just a little model but it sure works great. @Cafelelia i hope the parent teacher conferences go well. Our school system always has our kids included in our conferences. H no h…

@Cafelelia love your hygge description! Sounds exactly right to me. Thanks for the how to pronounce it as I definitely was saying it wrong. Most of my family is off today as it is Remembrance day. Sadly the ceremonies aren’t the same they usually are due to covid. I do have some jobs/errands to do, hopefully the roads are…

Hi all. I have had a not great weekend of eating during my crafting weekend. Started off good but one snack led another ! On the plus side I’m being very productive with getting photos scrapbooked. Drawing a line that Monday I will be back on Schedule.

Hi all, Going ape’s weigh in Last week 152 This week 151 Loss of one pound Not sure of my number for Ltd. I had been doing better on the scale but yesterday I definitely went overboard on the snacks. I think I my saving grace was that I was doing so much running/exercise earlier in the week. I hope everyone is doing well…

Week 9, day 3 of C210K and Zumba class

Hi all, @kandi3570 and @1theresamcvean - I watched the queens gambit too and I loved it! Now I need a new show... let me know your suggestions! @melaniedscott and @kandi3570 I would join in with a virtual 5K too. Might have to be indoors for me depending on the weather. We are expecting a lot of snow this weekend. Ugh.…

Hour long hike, some hills.

Hello everyone, I’m new to the group too. : ) I’m looking to: 1. Do weights every other day. 2. Keep up my protein intake 3. Lose a pound a week. 4. Up my water. Looking forward to getting and receiving inspiration and accountability!

@kika5105 ive been prepping overnight oats each evening. I like that it means my lunch the next day is no thinking required. I’m very much a creature of habit so can easily eat the same thing over and over. For suppers, we occasionally do a big pot of soup and freeze some or make an extra lasagna for the freezer. I haven’t…

Hi all, I haven’t checked in for a day or so and I see there is lots of activity! No worries on the accidental disagree! I think that button is in a bad place ! I appreciate everyone being so kind. @znaoiec i like your goal of being clutter free. I think I will have to do a spin on that for next month and that would be to…

Week 9, day 2 of C210K

@minstrelofsarcasm hi — meant to reply sooner. Magic bag is a fabric bag of grain that you can microwave and it’s nice and cozy. @sleepymom5 - with C210K, I was going to wait for spring but the weather here is too good to waste and I have a break with my classes so I figured it was good timing to challenge myself a bit…

1. My goal for this month - This November I will do strength/weight training every other day. 2. The small actions I’ll be taking to accomplish this goal - after dinner, I will get my weights out or drive to the gym. 3. The trigger or cue to remember to do my habit - don’t turn on tv till weights are done. 4. How often…

Hi all, I’m April from Canada. I have three boys (20 - 15). Currently working from home but expecting to get back to in-office work in next while. I have struggled with my weight since the birth of my third son; I got up to 220 as my highest weight and got my butt in gear once covid hit. Happy to be on track now and aiming…

Hi all. Weigh in for going ape! Last week 152.4 This week 152 Loss of .4 I was hoping for a bit more but will take it. I have been fighting the battle of cookies this week so I can hardly be shocked. I had thought I was doing so good by not buying Halloween mini chocolate bars and then go I and make cookies. 🤦🏻‍♀️ In more…

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes. Had my Zumba class. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes. Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank?yes. No winners circle for me.

@1theresamcvean and @Cafelelia To add to hygge ideas - I’ve been doing my scentsy and have pulled out my fall scents - apple pie, oatmeal cookie etc. Makes the room smell nice. I’ve pulled out all my super fuzzy socks, and have been using my magic bag to warm up with.

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes did my aerobicA class. Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes. Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes.

You are all bringing back memories of visiting the fabric store with my mom. She used to make our church clothes and did quilts. I remember hiding under the bolts of cloth in a little colourful cave. I actually need to get my kid to lift down my sewing machine. I have a scrapbooking weekend coming up and we use machine…

Hi all, Welcome to the newcomers ! This is a great group. I’m back to my exercises classes this week, thank goodness! I was missing the structure so very much. I had my aerobics tonight and Zumba is tomorrow. Can’t wait to dance. : D It feels like a long week already. Had a bad sleep last night which made my day drag. On…
