I’m happy with my progress. Today’s run had 3 walk breaks for a total of about 2 minutes.

@77tes The 5K is Dec 13th. Cool sunset! @snowshoe072 Oh no! Glad to hear the injuries were minimal you are ok!! I’ve ditched training with the group altogether. Today I’m going to run the race course and see how I do.

@donna25trinity Awesome job! It’s great to have pictures and see progress. @77tes Way to go! You’re doing great on your habits. So far so good with the 5K training.

Hi all! 5k training is going well. The tendons around my knee are still a bit sore when starting out, but relax once I get going. I’ll be shopping for new running shoes today and see if that makes a difference. Wednesday I ran on grass to take a break from hard surfaces. This week at work I said yes to a few NO treats. A…

@snowshoe072 Keeping you in my thoughts. @donna25trinity Progress pictures are a great motivator! I find how clothing fits is a better indicator than the scale. @Michieb125 Great list of NOvember habits! @Gigi_815 Catching yourself, analyzing and making changes is what it’s all about. Great job! @77tes 👏🏻👏🏻 Celebrating…

@marlalynns6304 Oh, no! It can be very discouraging sitting on the sidelines. Hang in there. Wishing you a speedy recovery! @TerriRichardson112 I love your wording… NO slacking! Core strength is so important. Great NOvember focus! @77tes My planner lists November as gratitude month. Gratitude journaling is perfect! Today…

Welcome @marlalynns6304 Stretching / Yoga is a great habit to work on and Fitch sounds like a fun way to stay on track. Good luck! Welcome @Gigi_815 Great plan to use mindfulness to overcome emotional eating. I really like your questions/answers and your plan of attack! You got this! @77tes Great NO habit! Good luck! I…

Oh how I can relate to this. Thank you for highlighting NO. All too often I get sucked into “Yes” without thinking about the consequences until it’s too late. I’ll continue my 5K training this month and work on saying NO to unhealthy sweets: cake, cookies, candy and ice cream!

Another successful month! Great job everyone! 👏🏻👏🏻 The 5K training is going well. Today was my rest day, but I walked 2 miles since it was such a beautiful day; I’m also listening to my body adding extra stretching and yoga poses as needed. Happy Halloween! 🎃👻💀🧙‍♀️

Hi everyone! @SummerSkier Your unique Bougainville looks like potato chips!! 😂🤣 @77tes Great job on your Walktober challenge! 👏🏻👏🏻 I’m still active, just not on MFP. I joined a 5k training group to gain running knowledge and help me stay motivated. It’s also nice to meet new people and have a group to run with. I’ve signed…

I’m very close to having full range of motion in my arm without pain. Yay! I took it easy this weekend catching up on chores and spending time with my grandsons. Watching 5 year olds play soccer is definitely entertaining! 😂 10/10 💪🏻🚶‍♀️ 10/11🚶‍♀️ 10/12🚶‍♀️

@77tes Your dog making a phone call?! That’s funny. Last weekend I aggravated a prior arm injury, so I skipped the arm workouts this week and focused on core, lower body and stretching. 💪🏻 Strength training - 3x week 🚶‍♀️Daily walk - 30 min 10/5 💪🏻🚶‍♀️ 10/6🚶‍♀️ 10/7 💪🏻🚶‍♀️ 10/8 🍻 10/9🚶‍♀️

@SummerSkier Good to hear you’re almost over the crud! And nice to see you found a butterfly 🦋 @Learningmoments @Michieb125 @snowshoe072 Strength training is great! I’ve noticed a decline in my strength the last few years so I’m really trying to be consistent with my strength training. We got this!! 💪🏻 @Wiseinwellness…

Yay!! It’s finally fall!! 🍁🎃 So glad to have comfortable walking weather back. I’m not adding a new habit this month, just focusing on consistency with strength training and daily walking. 💪🏻 Strength training - 3x week 🚶‍♀️Daily walk - 30 min 10/1 💪🏻🚶‍♀️ 10/2🚶‍♀️ 10/3💪🏻🚶‍♀️ 10/4 🚶‍♀️ Have a great weekend! 😊

Well, I definitely didn’t focus on consistency with my habits in September, but the month wasn’t a total loss. One thing I gained from using the tracker/planner is the measure of time, and apparently how much of it I waste. I set a goal to paint a few interior doors by the end of the month and didn’t.

@77tes Oh Kathy, I’m so sorry to hear of your daughter’s passing; my condolences to you and your family. 💔

I fell off the tracking wagon. I walked over the weekend, had veggies daily and my water intake was spotty. The weights are hanging out in the living room wondering what’s up and the tracker is being neglected. Tomorrow I’m on vacation again and more than ready. At least I’m focused on something 😂

@Michieb125 Awesome job on the daily yoga! 👏🏻👏🏻 @snowshoe072 The meal sounds delicious! Yesterday I ordered a spinach quinoa burger. It was good and I’ll try to make one at home. @Learningmoments Great job tracking your sleep. 👏🏻 Do you sleep straight through the night? I’ve added notes, they just aren’t focused on my…

So nice to read all the positive gains. Great job everyone! 👏🏻👏🏻 This week’s been challenging with the planner. The list part is easy, not so much adding in thoughts/feelings at the end of the day, but overall a good week. Strength training 💪🏻 4x a week Daily Walk 🚶‍♀️2 miles Vegetables 🥦 Water 💦 Loop ➰ 3x a day Tracker 📒…

Welcome @Michieb125 I love your philosophy - progress over perfection. Absolutely! @snowshoe072 Healthy food choices will definitely help with the subcutaneous fat; you can’t out-exercise a poor diet. For me - too many sweets and it starts to show! 😮 @SummerSkier Great goal! Last month I started to focus on some questions.…

Goodbye August… 8/30 🚶‍♀️💧 8/31 💪🏻🚶‍♀️🥦💧 Hello September!

Great job @77tes !! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻💪🏻

My September habit and beyond will be using a planner for tracking. I’ve made great progress building habits, thanks to this group, and tracking in the planner will give me additional ways to measure my progress. Continuing habits: Strength training 💪🏻 4x a week Daily Walk 🚶‍♀️2 miles Vegetables 🥦 Water 💦 Loop ➰ 3x a day…

One of my goals this year was to lower my cholesterol. Yesterday I had my physical and the cholesterol is down! 🎉 Healthy habits are paying off. 💪🏻🥦💦 8/29 🚶‍♀️🥦💦

Vacation was fantastic! Fun time with the family. 🥰 8/22 🥦💦 8/23 ⛱️ 8/24 ⛱️ 8/25 ⛱️ 8/26 ⛱️ 8/27 💪🏻🥦💦 8/28 💪🏻🥦💦 @77tes you’re welcome! Very creative using your purse as a kettle ball, and great news your daughter is feeling better. @SummerSkier I only took pics of the kids/family on the beach, so no beach pictures to…

Crazy week while my coworkers are off, but I’ll get plenty of time to relax at the beach. Vacation here I come!! ⛱️ 8/19 💪🏻💧➰ 8/20 🥦💦➰ 8/21 💧

Finally got the loop back in today. Instead of trying to piggyback the loop to my hourly water notification (that I ignore half the time) I’ll just use the upstairs bathroom.Twice a day I seem to be on the same “bathroom time” as housekeeping so it’s not too hard getting at least 2 loops in. 😂 The stuffed peppers were…

@77tes No worries, just don’t call me late for dinner! 😂🤣

@77tes Definitely the true test of progress and a huge motivator. Congratulations! 🎉 And thanks for keeping us motivated! 🤗 @SummerSkier I love my outdoor walks! This summer has been a challenge as my normal walk area was under construction and the afternoons were either too hot and muggy, or rainy. This weekend the area…

@SummerSkier Good to hear you’re almost healed, and definitely a great idea not to push when you feel you’re at the ‘almost there’ recovery point. That’s a lesson I learned the hard way. 🙄 @77tes I’m just keeping it real. I’m proud of the habits I DO incorporate daily, but to me a habit is something done consistently…
