You’ve got this!!

I did pretty well these two weeks - started at 206 and am at 203.5. My goal was 203, so it’s not exactly perfect, but I’ll take it.

Agreed - at least you maintained and if you keep it up eventually the scale will notice! Focus on those non scale victories in the meantime and don’t get discouraged - you’ve got this!

Starting weight: 256 Current weight: 206 (Yay - 50 lbs lost!) Goal for May: 200 (lose 1.5 lbs per week) My goals for the next two weeks: - get 1 hour of exercise a day, 6 days per week - Add more protein to meals to feel fuller and cut down on hunger snacking. Biggest obstacle/Challenge: - I think as I have increased to…

Alright - tomorrow is the last day of April! I did big hikes Saturday and Sunday then some bike rides Mon - wed. I have a walking date with a friend tomorrow (we’ll keep a respectable distance between us). I will have met my goal of an hour of physical activity a day for 8 out of 9 days. Not perfect, but pretty respectable!

My non-scale successes lately are these 1. There are some hills I ride on my bike that left me winded and tired 6 weeks ago that have become normal and not a big deal. I can tell I’m stronger! 2. It was warm and sunny this afternoon and I put on this cute vintage dress I’ve had for years and love. It’s still a little…

Agree - sometimes it’s easy to spiral and feel like because you didn’t meet the mark with meals then why bother to try to meet other goals around exercise or hydration. I’ve been trying to really focus on getting as many things right as i can and not letting a small set back pull me way off track.

So Thursday was rainy and terrible and busy - so I did not meet my daily exercise goal. However, yesterday was absolutely beautiful and my friend and I were able to go on a beautiful (socially distanced) hike that was about 2.5-3 hours, so I feel ok about it. I also fixed my bike tire, so I think I’ll do a ride this…

Yeah that’s sounds delicious and challenging at the same time. Maybe plan for some exercise in the morning and try to avoid seconds? But also enjoy!

Yesterday I wound up with a 30 minute bike ride before my back tire popped, which was a bummer, but then it was an hour to walk back home, so I did still meet my activity goal 😆🤦🏽. Today’s will be more challenging because it’s supposed to rain all day and I am not a good indoor exerciser...

Alright - I got in a little 20 minute social distance walk with a friend at lunch and then a 65 minute bike ride this evening. All I need to do is eat and log my dinner and I’ll have day 1 in the bag. I’ve heard good things about Adrienne yoga - I’ll have to check it out.

Yay! Welcome to our little group! I’m with you - right there within sight of that 1 at the front of the scale but haven’t quite been able to get there yet. But, I’m determined and I’m learning to be patient and consistent as well. One day at a time!

Wow! I know you must be frustrated with your recent set backs and health issues, but I have to say that I am super impressed with how far you have come overall! That’s amazing! I always have to remind myself to go slow to go fast - I’m sure that’s extra true for you right now while you rest and rehab your body. Glad to…
