Please add me to PS4L

@Ceriusly1 I am sad for your loss. May you and your family find comfort and strength, may He wrap His loving arms around you all.

I am ready, although measurements & photo will be done Monday when DH is home to assist.

I'll give it a try, I set appointments for Chat, WI, and Measurements.

I am mostly a Mindful Eater. I do best when I ask myself first if I have yet to fulfill a nutritional need before I reach for something empty or less kind to the body.

EXERCISE: - Cardio: 60 minutes of brisk walking or 30 minutes of intervals (C25K) daily. - Strength Training: 30 minutes 3 times a week using Precision Nutrition direction - Wind Down: Yoga, gentle stretching, or 20-minute warm soak to wind down before bed.

I am following Mindful Eating per Precision Nutrition. I stock foods that I need nutritionally, and for snacks I pick one for my perceived need. I keep apples, bananas, dried plums, coleslaw mix, nonfat Greek yogurt, and lightly salted almonds on hand. To meet my veggie goals, I either have a green protein smoothie or…

Setting Goals for the 2024 Winter 5% Challenge: Specific: To lose at least 3 pounds, and build a foundation of strength training by 3/16. In addition, to create a habit of going to bed by 11 p.m. by 3/16, moving my curfew earlier by 6 minutes each week, at least 5 days out of 7. (I need about 8 hours in bed to generate 7…

For me, the 5% Challenge forces me to consider various aspects of my health regime. I have determined my "okay" weight (129-131) which I should not exceed to prevent my health markers from deteriorating. A 5% loss in 10 weeks would take me down to my happy "fighting weight" (where on-the-rack clothes fit easily), but…

Read. How does one make the title of a discussion BOLD? I have a draft blog set up to post, but the above issue seems to baffle me.

My Food Plan is a Balanced Diet, Low-Sodium, with 100-calorie daily deficit.* I achieve this by cooking from scratch, and including abundant non-starchy veggies and fruit. * This round I will make my own coleslaw mix, top with a hard-boiled egg, and tomatoes or carrots, and accent with 1 Tablespoon of homemade vinaigrette.…

Smart Goals: Overall: Achieve weight of 125 lbs. by 12/01/23. Exercise: Complete 150 minutes of cardio a week.* Do at least 2 ST sessions per week. Nutrition: To eat 5 freggies/day at least 4 days out of 7. Restoration: Average at least 7 hours of sleep per night for 5 weeks out of 8. WHY? Having been diagnosed with Atrial…

My goal for the Fall 5% Challenge is:* to edge closer to my ideal weight (I am in a healthy range already); * to increase my cardio to 150 minutes/week, BUT also balance my drive with my need for recovery; * to get in the habit of doing ST 2 times a week; * to get on average 7 hours of quality sleep each night (adequate…

I love the 5% Challenges! A goal of 5% weight loss in eight weeks is DOABLE. The focus on HEALTHY HABITS reinforces daily practices that work together for results. The FRIENDSHIPS buoy me when I begin to slack, and I learn so much from fellow members.

Those challenges and Bingo were Fun! Google's cost-cutting is likely to sink the Fitbit business. And they also reduced the benefits of a Premium membership as of 9/13/23! Google wants to sell the Pixel watch, that's what matters to them. The only advantage left to me from my Versa 4 is the online dashboard, where I can…

For me there are three reasons:* FRIENDSHIP with others also seeking better health. MFP helped me to hold it together during the "Stay Home" part of the pandemic. I look to various fellow 5% members as examples - beacons - to guide me in putting together a whole package of healthy habits. * Fostering HEALTHY HABITS has…

@Lessennan So glad to see you looking happy! That's a good bit of walking, great job by the both of you! Sending peaceful vibes to you, and I shall always think of you when I attack offensive weeds. @Kurtize As always, you spread blessings, thank you. @macrat12 I always read through your collections of tidbits. I like the…
