Up 3 from last week, but I expected a gain from grandbaby’s bday party with too many tempting leftovers in the house. Ice cream and chips!! My two worst tempters. Goal this week is to drink more water. 8/1: 155.2 11/1: 152.8 11/8: 151.4 11/15: 154.4 Challenge Goal: -9.4 Challenge Actual: +1.6

I tried something new this week. I usually weigh daily, but I decided to weigh 1x, on Friday. I felt like the scale was becoming an obsession. I also noticed if my weight went down, I gave. myself an excuse to have that extra snack. Next day, the weight went up. Next day down, Next day up. This cycle has been going on for…

I’m in. My progress wheels are in motion (down 2.4 last challenge) so I want to end 2024 strong. Thank you @RubyRed427 for setting this up. SW: 152.8 GW: 145.0

No loss for Oct but a loss for the challenge so I’m happy. Holidays and cold weather ahead so I’m in the next challenge to keep me accountable. I see lots of weight loss for everyone here. Awesome work! August 8/1: 155.2 8/8: 153.0 8/15: 153.4 8/21: 153.0 8/29: 153.2 Total for August: -2.0 9/5: 153.6 9/12: 152.6 9/19:…

I…

@Deeder522 Ooo la la. Bathroom is awesome!!

@Deeder522 Much better. Thanks for asking. It was a head cold that stuck around far too long. I was finally able to go to my aerobics class last night. Funny how the body forgets all the work you put in when you miss a couple workouts. Glad to hear you’re almost done with the remodel. I can’t wait to see the before and…

I know how the weight increase happened and now it’s time to get back into the healthy lifestyle. Two weeks left. August 8/1: 155.2 8/8: 153.0 8/15: 153.4 8/21: 153.0 8/29: 153.2 Total for August: -2.0 9/5: 153.6 9/12: 152.6 9/19: 151.8 9/26: 152.2 Total for Sept: -1.0 10/3: 151.0 10/10: 150.6 10/17: 153.4

I’ve been down from exercising for a week. Just a cold, but it wiped out all my energy. So I listened to my body and rested. I just finished Leslie’s Heart Healthy 1 mile, and it feels good to get back into it. I’m hoping the rest of the month is back to a routine.

Finally see a 150 something. Hoping for 149 something next week. Slow and steady. My husband’s bday dinner is Sunday, cheesecake and pie 😵‍💫, so I will need to eat mindful at dinner and try and avoid those apps. Im pushing myself to end this challenge strong. August 8/1: 155.2 8/8: 153.0 8/15: 153.4 8/21: 153.0 8/29: 153.2…

Happy October!! I love this month!! Beautiful colors, warm days, cool nights. October started out strong for me, and then I caught a cold. I took a few days off to rest and today I finally feel up to a workout. I’ll start with 1 mile and see how it goes. @Deeder522 . Keep reminding yourself how wonderful it will look when…

Trending down slow and steady. I was really hoping for 150 anything. So close. Ugh! August 8/1: 155.2 8/8: 153.0 8/15: 153.4 8/21: 153.0 8/29: 153.2 Total for August: -2.0 9/5: 153.6 9/12: 152.6 9/19: 151.8 9/26: 152.2 Total for Sept: -1.0 10/3: 151.0

My Sept goals were to exercise every day and do the Leslie 30 minute fast walk at least 1x/ week, and I’m very proud that I met my goals. There were a couple weeks I actually did the 30 minute 2x. Yay me! I’m still thinking on my October goal. It might just be a duplicate of Sept. I want to keep it realistic and…

Outside mile yesterday and aerobics class tonight. Trying to finish September strong.

At least it’s not a gain. I like this group. It is working to motivate me. Old me probably would have given up by now with this slow…

@Deeder522 A day away sounds fun. For me, being outside has a way of boosting my mood. I hope you are able to convince Ry to do something. I had my third aerobics class last night and my body is hurting less the next day so I think that’s a good sign. Hopefully I won’t be too tired when I get home to squeeze in 1 mile. I…

9/18 HH 1 mile 9/19 Aerobics class #2 9/20 30 minute fast walk A little sore but a good sore. Lots of toning last night. I like that she works on areas I pass on, abs, inner thighs, hamstrings. Have a great weekend. A little cooler this weekend but still nice.

Leslie HH 1 mile today and yesterday as well as my class last night. I’m tired tonight so feet up and book in hand. Have a good evening everyone!

I’m doing pretty well with September goals. I have had a couple snacks, but I evaluated beforehand… Am I hungry or bored? Is this a good choice? Baby steps. Exercising is spot on. 1 mile yesterday and 3 today. I’m making it a priority now, and my energy is so much better. My aerobics class starts Monday with focus on…

It was a busy day with grandbaby, and I was so tired when I got home. But I persevered and did HH 1 mile. Have a great evening.

9/10 & 9/11: HH 1 mile. I hope you are crushing your workouts. Have a great Thursday. Another beautiful day in Maine.

9/9 30 minute fast walk ✅

@zichab food poisoning is no joke. I got it from some homecoming event years ago and to this day I refuse to eat meat at cookouts if I don’t know how long it’s been sitting in a chafing dish. @Deeder522 Nice on the upper arms!! Those and my abs tend to be forgotten. I signed up for a toning class through our local adult ed…

9/4 & 9/5 HH 1 mile 9/6 30 minute fast walk. Day off today so got it in early. Now I can relax. Streak of no snacking still strong, and the scale has finally budged. I’ve been losing and gaining the same pound for months. I think the challenging workout is helping. Well..and the no snacking. 🤣 I have more energy too, but…

August 8/1: 155.2 8/8: 153.0 8/15: 153.4 8/21: 153.0 8/29: 153.2 Total for August: -2.0 9/5: 153.6 Stuck. Losing/gaining same pound so I’m going to reevaluate and make a few adjustments. Hopefully that will be enough to get results. 🤞

@Deeder522 I can relate to the water struggle and making chili. I’m terrible at both. I’m trying to improve on the water. Thankfully my hubby eats anything. We’ve been married 38 years and I don’t think I’ve wowed him with a spectacular meal in any of those years. @zichab Im exhausted just reading about the wood. It’s hard…

September goals: Leslie Fast Walking 30 Minutes at least 1x per week. Stop with the after dinner snacking!!! 9/1 Leslie HH walk and 3 mile walk with hubby. 9/2 Leslie Fast Walk in 30 Minutes So far snacking is fair to good but it’s only been 2 days.

I had a terrific month as far as exercising goes. I managed to do something everyday, and that hasn’t happened in a very long time. @Deeder522 I’m happy you were able to end the month on a high note, and Covid seems to be behind you. See you in September. September goals: Leslie Fast Walking 30 Minutes at least 1x per…
