Hiiii friends! Pretty good day today. Got more sleep last night and ate healthy all day! Took a nice walk after work as well. Now cozied up on the couch with the dogs. So glad tomorrow is Friday.

Hello all! I didn’t run away - just got super busy! I’ve been out of town for a work trip to Seattle and spent an extra two days exploring. Didn’t eat too much and got a lot of walking in, which was good! Back to the grind today. Got home later yesterday and quickly prepped some turkey meatballs for my lunches this week.…

Hi all! About to head to bed but wanted to check in first. Didn’t do the best this weekend, but I am determined to do well this week. Have some fun events and then work travel at the end, but trying to do my best with it all. Check in tomorrow! Night

Hi all! Happy Friday. Successfully did my StrongLifts and couch to 5k workouts today... did some extra walking too. Covered about 3.3 miles! Happy with that. Still working on that pesky snacking but doing better. It’s been another long, busy week and I’m exhausted. Hope to check in more tomorrow. Hope all are well!

Lana - you're right! I am definitely grateful for that. :) I do hope you feel better soon. It is focus on this when you're struggling mentally - I know that for sure... @hickchic67 - I'm sorry to hear about your eldest brother. Sounds like you've been pretty busy and have a lot going on too!! Today was a busy, busy Monday…

Happy Sunday, all!! I've been going through all the posts but haven't posted myself in a few days. I've had an eventful, relaxing, and productive weekend all in one! Went out a few times but really kept my food choices pretty healthy. Proud of that. Got my 3 stronglifts workouts in this week and a few walks! Man I feel so…

Hello all!! First, I wanna answer the QOTD. AOTD: I have so many reasons. I think the biggest is a tie between I am sick of feeling like crap all the time with no energy, and I want to look better!! I want to fit into my old clothes. And I have a bridesmaid dress I need to fit into, or order a bigger size... Today was a…

Hi All! Busy weekend, as always. Out with coworkers, bday celebration for brother, and then just normal household chores. Did pretty well eating all weekend, with a few exceptions. But I'm making better choices. Start of the work week tomorrow. Did some usual meal prep and taking it easy with the husband and pups tonight.…

Happy Friday, everyone! Week has been crazy. I’ve started writing in here multiple times and have gotten distracted. Ready for a relaxed, but healthy weekend. Got lots of goodies at the grocery store and will do my strength training this weekend. I’ll check back in later. Have a good day, everyone!!

Happy monday, all! Sorry I didn't post the last few days! I was out of town for work from Friday-Sunday and am home today just trying to catch up on normal life stuff. :) Haven't been able to do my official workouts this past weekend, but did get lots of walking in, which was good. Back to it today, and back to normal…

Hellooo all! Wanted to check in again before bed today. I made good decisions today, and for that I am proud! Ate well, within calories, and I even got some exercise in! Though I am horribly sore from my Monday workout, I decided not to skip the workouts altogether, but adapt them and do something less intense. I did some…

Hey Lana!! Thank you!! We did just fine! After all the scares with the path, we honestly didn’t even get an inch of rain! Just some wind and some rain here and there but nothing like Wilmington, etc got! I’m so glad to hear you did well too!! What a blessing for sure.

Hi all! About to head to bed but wanted to report on the day. Haven’t been sleeping well since last week but got up early today and got to work early. I am SO sore from my workouts on Monday so took a rest day today! Going to do the workouts again tomorrow after work. It’ll be another long day, but worth it! Stuck to…

Hello, all! QOTW: What will you be working on this week? AOTW: Need to FINALLY get an exercise plan going. Going to get back to my Stronglifts program and start Couch to 5k back up again. Starting today! Going to go do these in about an hour (after my lunch settles). Also going to stick to my logging and calories. So far…

Hello all!! Wow has it been a crazy, nerve-wrecking week. Our governor had ordered a mandatory evacuation for us starting Tuesday. It’s been days of wondering whether to stay or go, and waiting for this massive category 4 storm to hit us. By the time it got close, it had weakened so much. We’ve barely seen any rain!! Glad…

Hi all! Sorry I haven’t been updating. We have mentally been preoccupied with Hurricane Florence, as basically my entire state is in the “cone of uncertainty” and we are trying to figure out if we are going to evacuate or not!! Regardless, I ate pretty healthy all weekend and brought myself a nice big salad with homemade…

Hello hello, everyone! All of this talk of kitchen scales reminds me that I need to buy a new one! I know how important it is to properly weigh our food. All I've wanted all week is some pizza and beer (ha!) but I have stuck to my whole30 guidelines. I made buffalo turkey meatballs with roasted sweet potatoes and brussel…

Hi! I just started today and would love to join the group. Could definitely use some tips and some support. :)

Good Morning! Busy but nice morning. Ended up calling off of work because I couldn't bring myself to go - ha! Now going to stay home and relax and meal prep some lunches. I didn't have time yesterday after driving back from Florida. Did go to the grocery store and got a few extra things for the week - mostly some fresh…

Monday! Hello all! It’s been a few days! I’ve been in Jacksonville all weekend visiting my husbands family! It’s been a nice weekend, but eating healthy has been difficult. His family eats almost every meal out and does not pick healthy spots. I’ve been doing a lot of grilled chicken and stuff but yeah... just not great!…

Hi all! And happy belated bday, Kathryn!!! Busy work day as usual. Had my crustless quiche and a bit of my leftovers from yesterday for lunch with a 100 calorie pack of natural almonds/walnuts for a snack! Doing an easy, but within calorie sub for dinner tonight since the husband and I are going to do some house stuff.…

Monday! Good Morning, all! You're so right about the steps! Going to move as much as I can. Desk jobs can be killer for sure. Have a staff meeting at 9. Loading up on coffee now. Have a great day, everyone!

Hello all! *Waves* Have had a busy, but productive weekend. Working on house projects, cleaning, and did a good amount of meal prep. I have some crustless quiche (used a bunch of veggies i needed to use) and some korean ground beef with quinoa and veggie stir fry! Cut the grass today and worked up quite a sweat: it's still…

HAPPY FRIDAY! Reading all of the posts and hoping all are doing well. Trying to open my eyes this morning - need more caffeine! Glad it's Friday and oh-so ready for the weekend. Welcome to the newcomers! We've all been there (and I'm still struggling, but trying..) We can do this together!

Happy Hump Day, all! Glad we are in the middle of the week! Just not feeling the work thing, lol. Didn't do too bad yesterday. Mom ended up coming up to do laundry and have dinner last night. I also went to bed early, which was what I needed. Now looking up recipes for dinner this evening and hoping the work day flies by! \

Happy Monday, friends! Congrats on you loss, @Tilliesmommy1! Welcome, @betharose7! I love a good cuppa tea as well. Drinking tea (and lately kombucha and la croix) has been a new sort of "treat" for me and a nice way to relax. I'm used to having something in the evenings as a bit of a treat, but in the past it's been…

Happy Friday, all!! So glad the weekend is here, not going to lie! Been lurking all week as it's been a busy one. I've had a so-so eating week. My goal this weekend is to just take good care of myself - get back on track with meals, intermittent fasting goals, etc. The egg muffins and zucchini enchiladas sound delicious!!…

Hope you're feeling better Lana! Sounds like a good farmers market haul, @Twiley510 I came down with a summer cold on Saturday and have been feeling under the weather since. Started feeling crappy during my lovely spa appointment, but still enjoyed it. Took off work today to get more rest. Did NOT eat well last night, but…

Thank you, I surely will!! And that's a good point about the local micro-breweries! I didn't think of that. I love a good craft beer and we have at least 30 breweries here in Charleston. Going for a 10 oz pour instead of the 16 is a reaaaally good idea. :)

Good Morning/Happy Saturday, all! Sounds like some had a rough last few days! I hope you can wake up fresh and start over and are feeling better. We all have those! The important thing is that we keep trying. :) Woke up and weighed this morning. I've lost another 2 lbs. Since starting over, I am now at an 8 lb loss, which…
