@DID_60LBS_BY60 @Dianedoessmiles1 - Thanks Diane (two birds with one stone!) 😁 Bonnie will appreciate your prayers and support.

One of our Fit Force leaders manniecat - Bonnie - has been very ill and went to the hospital on Saturday night. A CT scan found a mass in her abdomen so she was referred to an oncologist whom she saw yesterday. She has a lot of fluid in her abdomen which has been making her fell nauseous. A procedure to drain the fluid…

@Ceriusly1 - I'm sorry to learn about the passing of your uncle. Hugs to you.

So sorry to hear this news about Denise whom I've encountered only on our IBC team. Hugs and prayers coming your way as you deal with this battle. May you be at peace in the days and weeks ahead.

I just saw that Ceri - Will do!

Plans are in place - some have been for years - and workout clothes are always at the ready. I have food scales and a new water bottle.

As a leader with responsibilities, I do check in daily and I have a set routine for getting in my daily exercise (with an alternate plan in place in the event that I sleep in or something else interferes).

Mindful vs Emotional Eating I've spent the IBC working on making at least two meals a day last for 20 minutes. It's something that I have done in the past and got away from for a while. Generally I am a mindful eater, but I know that when I am overtired especially, not feeling well, and sometimes bored, I am an emotional…

Exercise - 90-120 minutes, 6 days/week; 30-60 minutes (mostly stretching) on rest days. Workouts will consist of a combination of Pahla B videos (cardio/ST/balance), stretching, dancing, walking. Most exercise will be done each morning before breakfast. Some exercise might occur in the afternoons (walking)

Following the principles of the Whole Body Reset plan, I will *aim for 25-30 g protein per meal (90g per day), minimum of 5 g fibre per meal (25-30 g per day), 2 g fibre/5 g protein per snack * 5 freggies/day * aim to achieve calorie target daily (+/- 50) Continue to work on 20 minute meals at least 2x daily, pay attention…

Exercise - 6 days with stretching/light workout one day a week (rest day) Nutrition - Follow Whole Body Reset for eating plan. Movement - Set a daily step goal and get up and move every hour to achieve it. Weight - Work towards achieving my 5% goal or at least half of it. Mind Over Matter - Do 5 minutes of daily journalling

Goals - In the new year it's always to lose the few extra pounds that come to visit during the holidays - and to make them disappear quickly since most are water or bloating weight. I do want to make a greater effort to follow the "Whole Body Reset" where I am achieving set protein and fibre goals which each meal, because…

Our Fit Force member @walkintofit - Debbie - sadly had to say goodbye to her husband of about 46 years, on Wednesday December 6th after a very long and courageous battle with cancer. Debbie and her two sons were with him when he passed. Let's offer our prayers and support to Debbie as she deals with the pain of losing her…

@Dianedoessmiles1 - I can JUST imagine that you'd support no exercise from one of our members! 😠😝😁 You KNOW that we're going to do our best every week to beat you - even if some of our members are limited in exercise. Take care my friend!

@Ceriusly1 - Thanks Ceri.

Late Saturday Afternoon and @Derrick_Oz has still not joined the Fit Force team. Please join us today, here's your link to the team. https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/145463-2023-fall-5-challenge-fit-force

Fit Force is still missing @Derrick_0z. One of my leaders who said she is friends with him, was going to send him a message. I've been unable to successfully use the Friend Request feature.

New member Derrick_Oz assigned to Fit Force on Friday (I think) is our only missing member. I tried to send a friend request but that feature did not appear to be working when I tried it last night. At the moment I have 25 on board. @Derrick_Oz - Fit Force is waiting to welcome you aboard. Here's your link to pick up your…

How many 5% Challenges have you done? - Started in the Spring of 2016 and have missed one so if my calculations are correct, I just finished #29 What do you like to do for fun? - read, computer games, sing and conduct a small choir that visits 2 retirement homes (Oct- May - we take the summer off), get together with…

✔ Got it!
